Workers Member of Parliament Byakatonda Abdulhu and KCCA Councillor for Makerere University, Muganga Micdad have been dragged to court for allegedly defrauding a family of close to Shs2 billion.
The family members that include Asuman Nkambwe(Husband) Nkambwe Neddie, Mbazira Mansul(Children) and Nambooze Jane(Wife) say that people who are employed by the Departed Asians’ Properties Custodian Board reached out to them in 2019, sold properties to them and took more than Shs1.7 billion; but eversince they parted with the money; there has not been any single plot or property of land that has gotten to the aggrieved family’s possession and it is coming to now two years.
The family argues that initially they had sued the Departed Asians’ Properties Custodian Board; but they habe now discovered evidence that the people who were claiming to be agents, employees or workers of the Departed Asians’ Properties Custodian Board; are actually fraudsters.
And these Byakatonda and Muganga.
It is against this background that the aggrieved Family through their Lawyers of M/S Katuntu and Company Advocates today have ran to the High Court Land Division; seeking to be allowed to make a formal application to have the alleged fraudsters be added as parties to the suit.
However the application has been deffered to 15th/March/2022 because the Judges and Registrars are away in a Workshop.
The family maintains that the evidence inform of documents implicating the two Politicians to having taken money from them as purported agents, employees and Works of the Departed Asians’ Properties Costodian Board; has already been availed to Court.
The family also wants the two Gentlemen to explain why money belonging to Ugandans ended up in their pockets and not in the coffers of the Departed Asians’ Properties Custodian Board.
The contested plots are Plot 34 on Rashid Khamis Road, Plot 23 Martin Road and Plot 37 Martin Road.
The case is before the Deputy Registrar Jennifer Natukunda; the aggreived Family is represented by Counsel Ramadhan Waiswa from M/S Katuntu& Co. Advocates while the Departed Asians’ Properties Custodian Board is represented by Counsel Geoffrey Komakech from Victoria Advocates & Legal Consultants.
BACKGROUND:
Around 2019 the Plaintiffs say they wished to buy some properties as a family using their personal (Family) resources and that in June/2019, the Plaintiffs were informed by their then Lawyer that the Departed Asians’ Properties Custodian Board had 3 plots that it wished to dispose of/sell.
They were informed that these properties were on Plot 34 LRV 146 Folio 10 on Rashid Khamis Road, Plot 23 LRV 117 Folio 8 on Martin Road and Plot 37 Martin Road LRV 116 Folio 17; and that they were developed with buildings and that although they had been expropriated during the 1970’s and vested in Government, their former owners had not legally repossessed them within the time limited by Law.
That on 31st/July/2019 upon advice of the Lawyer, the Family wrote to the Departed Asians’ Properties Custodian Board’s Divesture Committee and formally applied for allocation and subsequent purchase of the said Property.
The Family says the Board received the application on 21st/August/2019 and subsequently the DAPCBoard through its agents, employees, or workers demanded, received and acknowledged receipt of USD 490,000 dollars as consideration for purchase of the suit properties.
That these agents, employees or workers were the Departed Asians’ Properties Custodian Board’s Chairperson Mr. Byakatonda Abdulhu and Muganga Micdad who assured the Plaintiffs that they would get vacant possession of the suit plots as soon as they were allocated to them.
“Around January 2021, after months of waiting the Plaintiffs sought vacant possession from the occupants of the suit plots, however the occupants did not have knowledge of any transaction which prove that the defendants had sold and allocated the suit plots to them(Plaintiffs)” the Court document reads in part.
The Family contends that they demanded from the Defendant to make good of its Promise to give vacant possession of the suit plots in a series of meetings in 2021; but they still to date do not have possession or quiet enjoyment of any of the suit plots.
And as a result; the aggreived Family says it has not only lost money; but have suffered mental stress and anguish for which they want Court to order that the Defendant pays them damages to a tune of One Billion Five Hundred Million Shillings.
A refund of all the sums of money received from the Plaintiffs as consideration for the purchase of the suit plots amounting to US dollars 490,000 and Ug. Shs. 70.590.000 plus costs of the suit.
DEFENCE:
(Departed Asians’ Properties Custodian Board)
In their Defence the Departed Asians’ Properties Custodian Board denies each and every allegations by the aggreived Family and maintain that if they had carried out due diligence as they have now done, they would have found out that the suit Property was not available for sale.
Through Victoria Advocates & Legal Consultants; Departed Asians’ Properties Custodian Board argues that it did not at any time enter into any agreement with the plaintiffs and has no contractual obligations towards them.
The Board says that the Plaintiffs delt with an individual unknown to it(Board) and the other could not be acting on its behalf as the acts complained of are criminal in nature.
The Board denies having an employee, agent or worker by the names of Muganga Micdad who is said to have received a total of USD 270,000; and the Board also denies Byakatonda Abdulhu as it’s Chairperson but avers it’s Chairperson is the Minister of Finance and repeats that Muganga Micdad is neither it’s agent, employee or worker.
The Board contends that it has never received any applications for temporary allocation of the suit Properties and therefore didn’t allocate them.

The average power consumed by a 3D Printer varies from 120 to 300 watts per hour, primarily depending on the size of the heated bed. The remaining components, such as the mainboard, display, stepper motors, and fans, usually draw less than 50 watts per hour. The inherent power efficiency of these components leaves no scope for improvement, unfortunately.
However, modifying the heated bed for efficiency has the potential to yield significant reduction in power consumption. Here’s how you can reduce your 3D printer’s carbon footprint with a simple, inexpensive bed modification.
Why Is Your 3D Printer Terrible at Power Efficiency?
While 3D printing is undoubtedly sophisticated at the commercial level, consumer 3D printers are relatively simpler designs cobbled together with off-the-shelf components. Most of these components involve electronics and stepper motors that are inherently optimized for low power consumption. Nothing wrong in that department.
Unfortunately, the 3D printer beds are a different matter altogether. To save costs and reduce production complexity, nearly all consumer 3D printers lack bed thermal insulation. That’s a bad idea because an uninsulated bed will radiate heat from the top as well as the bottom surfaces. In other words, nearly half of the radiated heat is wasted from the bottom of a heated bed.
The greater the amount of wasted heat, the longer the bed heater must operate at the maximum power level to maintain the preset bed temperature. The heated bed of a typical 3D printer, such as the Creality Ender-3, consumes more than 250 watts of power at full tilt, so you’d ideally want to insulate the bed to prevent the heater from kicking in often. Here’s how to go about doing that the proper way.
Thermally insulating a 3D printer bed involves partially disassembling the printer to extract the bed. That’s not a huge concern because nearly all consumer 3D printers ship in knocked-down kits replete with user manuals and the tools required to put everything together. The same tools can be reused for this purpose.
Getting the insulation material choice right is our primary concern. The heated beds in most consumer 3D printers are good up to 250°F. That’s well below the ignition temperature of most materials, which makes most common insulation materials safe enough for our purpose.
However, such high temperatures still introduce the problems of warping, melting, and off-gassing. Plastics such as acrylics and foam insulation materials will begin to deform at the sort of bed temperatures recommended for ABS printing. In fact, some foam materials might even emit potentially harmful gases. Take a look at our 3D printing food safety guide to learn more.
The best materials therefore are cork (rubberized cork works as well) and silicone. Cork sheets are cheap and easily available, while also being capable of withstanding temperatures well beyond what most consumer 3D printer beds can reach.
Silicone sheets are the best choice simply due to their significantly higher thermal threshold. Choose the option that fits your budget. What isn’t optional, however, are these tools:
Ruler for measurement
Appropriate cutting surface
Utility knife, or any other type of blade
High temperature RTV silicone sealant
Hole punch tool, or chisel
Hammer
Latex or nitrile rubber gloves (non-powdered)
Step 1: Remove the Build Platform
The exact steps vary according to the make and model of your 3D printer, but the process is roughly the same for Ender-3 or other variants of the Prusa i3 “bed-flinger” design. The first step invariably involves removing the build platform otherwise known as the printer bed.
Your 3D printer’s assembly manual will have detailed instructions, but it generally involves these steps:
Powering the printer off.
Removing the power plug from the wall socket.
Detaching the bed heater and bed thermistor wires.
Unscrewing the bed adjustment knobs.
And finally lifting the bed off the 3D printer chassis.
Keep the bed aside for now, and move onto the next step.
Step 2: Cut the Insulating Material to Size
Lay your thermal insulation sheet down on the cutting surface and place the bed on top. Use a box cutter or an X-Acto knife to cut the sheet to the exact dimensions of the bed. A dull blade will make the task painfully slow and tedious, so be sure to use a fresh, sharp blade.
A thicker insulating layer retains heat better, but high-density materials such as silicone add a considerable amount of weight. It isn’t advisable to go overboard with insulation thickness for printers such as Prusa i3 and Creality Ender-3 that employ moving beds.
It’s absolutely important that the thickness of the insulating sheet shouldn’t exceed the length of the bed springs when they are compressed. For example, if your 20mm long bed springs are compressed to 10mm upon tuning, it’s wiser to limit the insulation thickness to 6mm or less.
Step 3: Cut Out Holes for Bed Screws
Place the bed on the insulation sheet and mark out the holes meant for the bed screws. You can either use a hole punch tool to cut a circular hole of appropriate diameter, or use a chisel and hammer to cut out clean squares.
Speaking of appropriate hole size, they should be large enough to accommodate the bed springs without touching or snagging on them.
You can also resort to a box cutter or X-Acto knife in a pinch, if you don’t have access to the aforementioned tools. However, the cuts won’t be as clean or precise.
Step 4: Does Your Bed Have a Flat Underside?
The heated beds on virtually all 3D printers employ PCB heaters. Such beds tend to have flat undersides. If that’s the case with your 3D printer, you may skip this step.
However, those who have built their own DIY 3D printers, such as Voron (learn more in our Voron beginner's guide) or Rat Rig, have to contend with uneven bottom surfaces on their DIY beds, on account of additional components such as thermal fuses, bed thermistors, and cabling.
Using multiple thinner insulation sheets with cutouts to accommodate these protruding components does the trick, followed by a final layer of insulation to cover up any gaps.
Step 5: Prepare the Bed Surface
Before we can stick the insulating sheet to the underside of the bed, the mating surfaces must be thoroughly cleaned of oils and impurities for reliable adhesion. Warm distilled/filtered water and a drop of dish soap works for cleaning the bed, but isopropyl alcohol is a better choice.
We recommend wearing non-powdered latex or nitrile rubber gloves, because your bare fingers and palms can leave oil and grime on the cleaned surfaces. If you used water to clean the bed, be sure to wait at least 15 to 20 minutes for it to dry out before moving onto the next step.
The insulating material must be cleaned as well. Avoid water if you’ve opted for a porous material, such as cork or foam, that can absorb or otherwise retain water. These are best cleaned using a brush to remove dust and contaminants. However, water-resistant materials such as silicone can be cleaned with a tissue moistened with distilled/filtered water.
Once the bed surface is clean, you may optionally apply masking tape to prevent the silicone adhesive from migrating inside the perimeter.
Step 6: Sticking It All Together
Apply a thin but consistent layer of high temperature RTV silicone sealant to the underside of the bed. You can either choose to apply the adhesive everywhere or just to the perimeter. The latter is perfectly fine because even if an air gap were to form in the center, that would only improve thermal insulation.
Carefully align the thermal insulating sheet and stick it onto the bed. Silicone adhesive begins to cure immediately after being exposed to air, but most formulations allow adjustment for 10-15 minutes. If you are using multiple insulation sheets, repeat the process for all sheets.
Place some weight on the bed, while resting it on a flat surface where it can lie undisturbed. Most silicone adhesives take anywhere between 24 and 48 hours to cure. However, reaching full adhesive strength may take up to a week depending on the adhesive formulation. Please refer to the manufacturer's instructions for clarity. Ideally, avoid removing the weight or otherwise disturbing the bed for at least two days.
Step 7: Reinstall the Bed
With your bed adequately insulated, you can now reassemble the bed screws and springs, and reinstall the bed onto the printer. Assembly is the reverse of the disassembly process you followed earlier.
Enjoy the Power Savings
A well-insulated 3D printer bed not only heats up faster, but it also significantly reduces power consumption. This is all the more apparent on longer prints, where heat loss tends to compound to a greater degree over time.
The power savings are even more pronounced on modern 3D printers that use the PWM (pulse-width modulation) technique to control bed heater power.

Debbie and John Smith have spent more than a dozen years scalloping together, and this season their bushels are full.

Debbie Manley Smith and her husband John wake up long before sunrise most weekdays during scallop season. They gather their orange foul-weather gear and head to Edgartown Harbor to board their 22-foot fishing boat.
John has had the old Aquasport since 1978, and converted it for scalloping. “The insurance company had it as a complete total when I bought it,” John said as he began to ready the well-used boat last Thursday morning. “It was the first fiberglass boat in the fleet in Edgartown, and they gave me a hard time about it,” he remembered.
It was about 6:40 and the sun was just coming through in shades of pink and orange. Debbie pulled her cellphone out of her pocket and walked to the end of the dock.
“Wait a minute,” she said, “I’ve got to get a picture of this for the guys on Facebook.”
Debbie said that John gets up at 4:30 am, and she lies in bed a few minutes longer, listening to him talk to the dogs. They live in Edgartown, and besides scalloping together over the past dozen years, the couple also work together at the Edgartown Prime Marina. Debbie works in the office, and John works on the boats.
The old Aquasport held a couple of small wire baskets and six plastic bushel baskets, three dredges on either side of the boat, and what looked like a dozen ropes suspended from a metal bar overhead.
“Hold on,” Debbie said as the boat started out of the harbor.
John steered toward Cape Pogue, and there were half a dozen similar boats headed in the same direction.
“Sure beats driving to Boston on Route 3 every morning,” he said.
John was watching a screen, which looked something like an Etch-A-Sketch drawing, to determine where to drop the dredges. He tugged on a pulley system, and the dredges disappeared into the water one at a time.
This year the scallops are plentiful, and they’ve been bringing in the limit each morning — three bushels for John and another three for Debbie.
Commercial scalloping can be a tricky business, John explained. Last season the scallops were scarce, and they only went out a dozen times. Their plan is to keep dredging for scallops at least until Christmas this year.
Edgartown shellfish constable Paul Bagnall confirmed this year’s early bounty. He’s received more than 100 applications for commercial shellfishing licenses this season; some of them belong to people over 60 who don’t have to pay the $350 for a license. Edgartown’s 2015 annual report noted that there were only 18 commercial shellfishing licenses issued last year, and 47 free licenses for residents over 60.
“If we do 5,000 bushels this season, that’s a good year,” Mr. Bagnall said. Each bushel will yield about 8 or 9 pounds of scallops, bringing in an average of $20 a pound at the local markets. “That’s close to a million dollars, and any money you can bring into the local economy multiplies that effect.”
The commercial scallop season in Edgartown runs from Nov. 1 to April 1. Because the weather was so cold last February, they lost the whole month, prompting the Edgartown shellfish committee to petition the State Division of Marine Fisheries to extend the season to April 30.
“It’s got to be 30° by 9 am,” Mr. Bagnall said. Any colder, and scallops freeze once they’re out of the water.
Edgartown, and particularly Cape Pogue, has historically been noted as healthy scallop ground. Linsey Lee, curator of oral history at the Martha’s Vineyard Museum, has a recorded interview with Preston Averill as part of her “Vineyard Voices” collection. He describes how most of the roads in Edgartown were covered in scallop shells before they were paved.
An article in the Dukes County Intelligencer dated August 1992 reported, “When scallops were abundant, towns were more prosperous, and the spirits of adults and schoolchildren rose.”
The article also reveals that men typically didn’t bring their wives along while dredging for scallops until the 1930s and ’40s, estimating that “only one in 20 scalloped with his wife.” The article stated that the men brought their wives along to double their limit, and “to improve the family’s income.”
Most of the boats on Cape Pogue last week had two people on board, though Debbie and John appeared to be the only husband-and-wife team.
The couple stood on opposite sides of the culling board, John manning the lines that raise and lower the heavy dredging nets, and Debbie ready to help him empty the net onto the board.
“Watch your feet,” Debbie warned John as he navigated the lines piling up on the floor of the boat.
“I think about that on a constant basis, wondering how fast I could get over on that side and switch off the engine,” Debbie said, shaking her head. She worries about him getting tangled in the lines and pulled overboard.
John was born in Boston, but has lived on the Vineyard since the mid-1970s. Debbie was born on the Island and has lived here all her life. The couple said they’ve been together since 2003 or 2004 — they didn’t settle on the exact date while they were busy with the task at hand — and they’ve been scalloping together just as long.
They work in rhythm, emptying the dredge onto the culling board, filling the smaller wire baskets with scallops, sliding the eelgrass, crabs, and scallop seed off the culling board and back into the water. John dips the wire baskets full of scallops into the salt water for a rinse, and then he hands them to Debbie to pour into the bushel baskets until they’re full.
Debbie said a lot of people ask her how she manages to go dredging for scallops with her husband all those mornings.
“I love it,” she said. “My favorite time is when we go right into Cape Pogue, the peacefulness and the beauty of it.”
It only took a couple of hours to fill six bushels last Thursday. The scallops would be taken to the shuckers, and eventually sold to Net Result in Vineyard Haven.
“This is good,” Debbie said as the boat eased back into the dock. “We can get home and clean up, and be at work by 10.”

The two top dogs in satellite television offer very similar services with some variations such as NFL football, amount of Spanish stations and more. Both services are excellent and in terms of value beat the pants off of cable. Additionally, with the pending advent of new satellite technology and more powerful satellites…satellite TV keeps getting better and better.

Choosing The Best Satellite Internet Service
Its’ about more than cost. Typically, satellite internet costs from about $39 per month to around $60 per month. That’s about the same as most people pay for high speed internet through DSL or the local cable company. Consumers should look for at least 5 Mbps (megabits per second) download speed but speeds can go much higher reaching at present a top level of about 12 Mbps. And, that is expected to go even higher yet in the near future starting with new, upgraded satellite expected to be in orbit in 2017 with more improvements still to come in 2018. Data allowance is another critical part of the equation when considering satellite internet service. Most satellite providers offer from 5 GB to 100 GB and this should be plenty sufficient for most people.

The Future Of Satellite Television
Some say that the future of cable television and satellite television is doomed because programming will ultimately be delivered via the Internet. But as long as there are remote areas of the world and remote areas of the United States where it is not cost effective to lay cable, the likelihood is that the future of satellite communications for television and Internet remains promising. There are many millions of people around the world and in the U.S. that do not have access to high speed internet of cable television because of the their remote location. Content companies like Netflix, Amazon Video and TCM’s new venture Filmstruck are exploding, but without broadband level Internet connections, they are not usable. So, no cable means no Netflix. The likelihood of cable companies spending hundreds of millions of dollar to connect a small number of homes or businesses in remote areas makes little sense. Cable cord cutting is dramatically on the rise as more and more people replace cable packages with online streaming services. But without high-speed internet connections this trend would be impossible. But as satellite technology improves and as the costs come down it is clear satellite communications will play a vital role in bringing service to those who are remotely located. And, in addition to basic access there are a number of other reasons to expect strong growth in satellite TV services for years to come
The Future Of Satellite Internet
We are merely at the beginning of an exciting new and rapidly improving technology. Google and Facebook are planning to beam internet service to remote parts of the planet via satellite. Airlines are upgrading equipment to use satellite technology to improve internet service during flights. And, that’s just the tip of the iceberg. Soon capacity from satellite internet is expected to double from its present level. Exede expects ViaSat3 to be launched in 2019, which will bring substantially greater capacity to even more locations. Other companies are planning expanded service with new satellite technologies as well.
Exede’s ViaSat-3 expected in 2019 array will deliver internet speeds of 100 Mbps to residential customers and gigabit speeds to commercial companies in the airline industry and shipping industry. ViaSat-3 will make available fast and affordable Internet to millions of people who are presently don’t have access to the internet because of their locations.
The number of smartphones, gadgets, sensors and other smart objects connected to the internet will continue to expand to offer a wide array of services. At Rutgers, Dipankar “Ray” Raychaudhuri is at the forefront of efforts to redesign the internet to handle the enormous increase in traffic.
“The traffic that comes from mobile devices into the internet has been increasing exponentially. It used to be 10 percent five years ago — now it’s over 50 percent,” said Raychaudhuri, a distinguished professor in the Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering in the School of Engineering and director of the WINLAB (Wireless Information Network Lab).
“As a result, mobile wireless capacity is beginning to run out,” he said. “That’s why cellular operators have to give you data limits. When you try to use a mobile phone and you’re downloading a web page, it stalls unexpectedly at times and you have to wait for the signal to improve. Also, there are all kinds of holes in the security system that need to be fixed.”
So, the growth that will available via satellite internet is a requirement as the era of digital services continues to expand in ways unforeseen at this point in time.

Movies That Suck returns after a long hiatus! For those who don't know Movies That Suck is where I watch a film that you won't want to. Although... quite a few of my selections have turned out to be... pretty good? So you never can tell for sure. This one though... trust me. Probably not great.
This time it's... Repo Man!
So without further commentary- here we go.
This starts off with a jam. I guess the whole soundtrack is punk 80's style. And the intro is kinda cool- we have a map showing the route the car takes- from Los Alamos in New Mexico to California. Iggy Pop does the theme. So anyway this Malibu is driving erratically down a desert highway and the driver gets pulled over. The driver- Parnell- is off, talking to himself. When the cop asks what's in the trunk, the driver tells him-
"You don't want to look in there."
Right.
The cop of course does just that- looks back there- and whatever is in the trunk vaporizes him, leaving only his boots. Woot! Alright, I'm getting a beer and settling in with this one!
We meet Otto (a very 1985 Emilio Estevez) who's working in some dump supermarket and he gets fired. Punkers! Otto's at a party and his girlfriend is sleeping with someone else- a guy named Duke- so Otto's like f this. He goes on a bender- we're supposed to feel sorry for him- and he meets a repo man named Bud (played by the awesomest Harry Dean Stanton).
Bud spins him some bullshit story and tricks Otto into repo-ing a Cutlass. Meanwhile some chica upstairs is like some gringo is taking our car lol. Welcome to repo school.
Bud works for Helping Hand Acceptance Corp. I guess Otto does now too. This crew. Only in the eighties did they make shows like this.
So the government agents are investigating the deceased cop and their intel indicates that their quarry is 44% likely to be in L.A. When asked what could have happened to the cop, the lead agent replies
"People just explode."
Wow, some things never change. Otto returns home to find his parents enthralled by a televangelist- this was the eighties- and the guy is railing against communism and liberal humanism. Kinda like now! The televangelist is telling his audience to go ahead and mortgage their home, sell their car- they don't really need a car, right?- and send him the money! Meanwhile, Otto asks his parents about a $1,000 they promised him if he'd finish school. Oops. They sent that money to their favorite televangelist...
Repo time.
So our Malibu comes rolling into L.A. right past some government spooks in hazmat suits.
So this viaduct situation looks just like the place from To Live and Die in LA.
So Duke and crew are robbing a place and I feel like they're gonna keep turning up. Otto tries to repo a car and gets maced for his trouble. Later he picks up a chick named Leila. Who happens to be on the run from the government agents. She shows him a picture of four dead aliens- that's what they're after.
Oh, and apparently the "tree" air freshener company was sponsoring this movie- that must be why these fucking air fresheners keep showing up constantly?
So Leila and Otto get it on in the back seat in broad daylight after knowing each other for ten minutes?
The Malibu comes across the wire for the repo agency. $20 grand for it.
The agents are bugging Leila so they're on to Otto now after he makes contact. Some rival repo men take the Malibu, and there are noises coming from the back? Don't check that trunk! Oh, never mind- Debbi and Duke steal it. And Otto gets in a shoot out on a repo caper. Leila gets kidnapped by the spooks, and when the repo guys wanna know who fucked up our boy Otto (who got his ass beat trying to get a car) he gives them his former boss lmao.
Okay so Leila and Otto meet up with the head agent- she has a metal hand?- and Duke and crew as well. And Bud's crew come across the rival repo'ers and the Malibu- it's time! The Malibu gets away though- they can't do anything right??? We see guys in hazmats taking away dead winos? Back up- why were they meeting with the agents if... nothing happened?
I feel like this movie is slowing down some. But then Otto sees the Malibu! He's puking too- radiation??? He manages to catch up to the car- the driver dies- and the car is recovered! Except then someone steals it. Bud and Otto get in a shoot out at a liquor store- Duke too- and the security guard in the liquor store is the same security guard when Otto got fired at the beginning.
They're burning the body of the driver. And the agents are back- Otto is captured and the head agent tells him they'll have to torture him. Leila helps. This is crazy. They're busting into a hospital?? Oh, I guess Bud's still alive. Here comes the Malibu! It's glowing!!!!!!!!
So... does this one suck? That would be an undisputed YES. But... it's also in the top ten cult movies of all time, apparently? And... it has its charms. Skewers 80's society. I feel like this is absolutely worth watching- it's got a vibe and killer punk soundtrack.
Enjoy!

This made me chuckle, mainly because I've been watching a much older Emilio Estevez in the new Mighty Ducks series on Disney Plus. I think it's the first time I've watched him in anything since this movie came out, lol.

Okay I am laughing my face off at the poster alone 😂😂😂 I loved me some Emilio Estevez back in his Mighty Ducks days! (I did not, like the above commenters, have a crush on him, because I was busy having an epic crush on Vincent Larusso, the guy who played Adam Banks. He was my first crush hah. Emilio was an "old" by the time I knew who he was- funny how much difference a few years makes 😂)
Also VERY glad that MTS is back- I have missed living vicariously through your questionable movie choices 😂 This one sounds a MESS bwahhaha.

Beauty, make up
Mehron: gorgeous, makeup artist looks for all skin colors
Though some theatrical makeup lines have broken through to the general public’s conscious, you may never have heard of Mehron. But you should! If you’ve seen any of those fantastic effects photos on IG or FB, chances are you’ve seen Mehron products. The 90 year old company creates products that work under extreme conditions of theater and film: heat, light, outdoor sets. Mehron was and is used on the sets of Black Swan, Cirque de Soliel, Phantom of the Opera, Shrek the Musical, The Lion King, New York City Ballet, and hundreds of TV and movie productions. I was happy to be hosted to experience it!
One thing’s for certain about cosmetics application: if you’re looking to cover something up, you want it to look natural and to stay put! Celebre Pro-HD Correct-It Palette is a silky cream consistency that has colors that will work for a wide range of skin tones, especially medium to deep. The easily blending pigments contain aloe, Vitamin E and antioxidant pomegranate
You may wonder how to use the unusual shades. Here’s a loose guide:
Lavender can “wake up” olive skin tones, brightening them subtly without having to overdo blush. It can also create a strobing effect for the deepest tones, without any pearl or glitter. This is important if you have wrinkles or breakouts.
Yellow — in this case, a creamy eggnog color — can highlight medium tones or help with dark circles, bruise coverage.
The green can be a lifesaver, especially for fair skin. If you have burns or massively bright blemishes, use a dab of green under your normal concealer. I was in a fire once and a silky green cream helped me face (if that’s not too bad a pun) the world.
The various orange tones work to cover dark under eye circles on even the darkest skin.
For you makeup artists, travelers and even de-clutterers, you will love E.Y.E. Cream! It comes in several colors from fanciful to skin toned. The cream to powder formula is richly pigmented and can be used as a primer, shadow, liner or as an easy to use paint pot for designs. Use a short-haired (synthetic) brush or your finger!

• Totals of textile waste are estimated to be between 550,000 and 900,000 tonnes per year, with most of this coming from household sources
• As we all know, many items of clothing and pairs of shoes are thrown away because they are not fashionable, don't fit or have been outgrown
• It is estimated that 400,000 to 700,000 tonnes of textiles are sent to landfill every year, worth an estimated £400 million.
• At least 50% of the textiles going to landfill are recyclable.
• The amount of textile waste reused or recycled annually in the UK is estimated to be 250,000 tonnes.
• Recovery and recycling provide both environmental and economic benefits.
It is estimated that over 70% of the world's population

Textile recovery:• Reduces the need for landfill space. Textiles present particular problems in landfill as synthetic (man-made fibres) products will not decompose, while woollen garments do decompose and produce methane, which contributes to global warming. | http://www.recycle.uk.net/textiles.html | 1,665,150,076 |

IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT DISTRICT OF KANSAS Kristi Taylor, Plaintiff, v. Case No. 16-cv-2056-JWL State of Kansas, Department of Corrections; Corizon Health, Inc.; and Sam Cline, individually and in his official capacity, Defendants. MEMORANDUM & ORDER In July 2014, plaintiff Kristi Taylor was working as a charge nurse in the Hutchinson Correctional Facility when she was sexually assaulted by an inmate. After an extended leave of absence, she returned to work and was terminated approximately two months later. She filed this lawsuit against defendants asserting that her employer, Corizon Health, Inc., terminated her employment on the basis of her disability (post-traumatic stress disorder stemming from the assault) and failed to accommodate her disability in violation of the Americans with Disabilities Act (“ADA”), as amended by ADA Amendments Act of 2008 (“ADAAA”), Pub. L. No. 110325, 122 Stat. 3553, 42 U.S.C. § 12101 et seq. She further asserts that defendant Kansas Department of Corrections (“KDOC”) discriminated against her on the basis of her disability in violation of the Rehabilitation Act, 29 U.S.C. § 794(a). Finally, she contends that the KDOC and defendant Sam Cline violated her Fourteenth Amendment substantive due process rights based on a theory of state-created danger. This matter is presently before the court on defendants’ motions for summary judgment (docs. 82, 84). As explained below, both motions are granted. I. Facts The following facts are uncontroverted, stipulated in the pretrial order, or related in the light most favorable to plaintiff as the nonmoving party. Defendant Kansas Department of Corrections (KDOC) operates a number of correctional institutions in the State of Kansas, including Hutchinson Correctional Facility (HCF). At all relevant times, defendant Sam Cline was the warden at HCF. Defendant Corizon Health, Inc. has contracted with KDOC to provide health services to the inmates in KDOC’s custody. Plaintiff Kristi Taylor is a registered nurse who was employed by Corizon as a charge nurse from January 1, 2014 through July 14, 2015. Inmates at HCF are provided “sick call” slips that they may submit to the clinic when they have a need to be seen by a nurse. After reviewing the slips, a nurse will call over to the inmate’s cell block and ask that the inmate be sent to the clinic. General population inmates (regardless of whether they are maximum, medium or minimum custody inmates) are then given a pass to travel to the on-grounds clinic by themselves. Inmates are only escorted to the clinic if they are in segregation. As a normal practice, KDOC stations two correctional officers on duty within the clinic at HCF—one at the officer’s station on the “medical side” of the clinic and one at the officer’s station on the mental health side of the clinic. An officer stationed in the clinic will maintain the officer’s station overlooking the waiting room where the inmates sit and wait to be seen as well as make rounds through the clinic at least once an hour. 2 In November 2013, inmate Steven Stumpner was transferred to HCF, with Warden Cline’s approval, from another facility after he violently attacked a female staff member at that facility. Warden Cline did not alert the staff at HCF that inmate Stumpner was being transferred because of an attack on a female staff member, but there is no evidence that he normally would notify staff members about such information or that any policy required him to do so. When he arrived at HCF, inmate Stumpner was placed into segregation as a result of the attack. Inmates placed into HCF’s segregation unit remain there until the Segregation Board releases that inmate into the general population. The Segregation Board makes this determination based on an inmate’s activity and demeanor, along with input from security personnel and Corizon’s mental health staff. At some point, the Segregation Board released inmate Stumpner into the general population. Warden Cline has the authority to extend an inmate’s stay in segregation, but he did not extend inmate Stumpner’s stay. Although a Corizon employee had flagged inmate Stumpner as a “no Female Contact” inmate in the inmate’s medical file, a computer “upgrade” deleted that designation and plaintiff was not aware of the designation. It is uncontroverted that Warden Cline had no knowledge that Corizon had designated inmate Stumpner as a “No Female Contact” inmate in his private medical file. Neither the KDOC nor HCF maintains that type of designation for inmates. On July 17, 2014, inmate Stumpner was called to the medical clinic for a sick-call visit. Plaintiff, unaware of any “no female contact” designation, was alone with inmate Stumpner inside an examination room within the clinic. Inmate Stumpner sexually assaulted plaintiff. It was the first assault of a Corizon nurse at HCF in thirteen years. At the time of the assault, the officer stationed in the clinic was making rounds in the back of the clinic away from the room in 3 which plaintiff was conducting her examination. While the examination room was equipped with a panic or alarm button, plaintiff was unable to reach the alarm during the attack because inmate Stumpner was positioned between plaintiff and the alarm. He was criminally charged with rape and aggravated sexual battery by the Reno County District Attorney and he ultimately entered a plea to a reduced charge of attempted rape. As a result of the assault, plaintiff sought and received mental health treatment through Corizon’s workers’ compensation carrier from Dr. Molly Allen, a psychologist. Dr. Allen diagnosed plaintiff with and treated plaintiff for posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) and depression. Dr. Allen released plaintiff to return to work in mid-April 2015, but plaintiff did not return to work until May 14, 2015—a leave of absence of approximately 10 months. She returned to the same position she occupied prior to the assault. On or about July 1, 2015, one of plaintiff’s co-workers was attacked by an inmate in the clinic. Plaintiff was frustrated that the inmate was not immediately transferred out of HCF to another correctional facility and she voiced that frustration to her supervisors. Shortly thereafter, the inmate was transferred to the segregation unit but, on July 9, 2015, a determination was made to return the inmate to the clinic for medical treatment and monitoring. Plaintiff and the rest of the nursing staff were upset about the inmate returning to the clinic. On that same day, plaintiff told Debra Lundry, her supervisor, that her PTSD symptoms had flared in light of the inmate’s return to the clinic and that she needed to go home. Ms. Lundry advised plaintiff that she could leave for the day. Later that day, according to Corizon, multiple people advised Ms. Lundry that plaintiff had suggested that the inmate was “faking” his condition and that the nursing staff would refuse to take care of him because no one wanted to enter his cell. 4 Defendant Corizon alleges that plaintiff told her subordinates on the nursing staff that if they did not want to treat the inmate, Corizon would “not do anything to them” if they said that they were sick and went home. Plaintiff denies telling this to the nursing staff but concedes that she told one of her co-workers, who was feeling ill and was contemplating leaving anyway, that she did not think Corizon would fire him if he was sick and went home. Ms. Lundry relayed these reports to Warden Cline. Based on his conversation with Ms. Lundry, Warden Cline issued an admittance restriction against plaintiff. An admittance restriction, also known as a “gate stop,” restricts an individual from entry to the HCF facilities. Thereafter, Corizon terminated plaintiff’s employment based on the gate stop and plaintiff’s alleged refusal to treat the inmate and encouraging others not to treat the inmate. Additional facts will be provided as they relate to the specific arguments raised by the parties in their submissions. II. Summary Judgment Standard “Summary judgment is appropriate if the pleadings, depositions, other discovery materials, and affidavits demonstrate the absence of a genuine issue of material fact and that the moving party is entitled to judgment as a matter of law.” Water Pik, Inc. v. Med–Systems, Inc., 726 F.3d 1136, 1143 (10th Cir. 2013) (quotation omitted); see Fed. R. Civ. P. 56(a). A factual issue is genuine “if the evidence is such that a reasonable jury could return a verdict for the nonmoving party.” Water Pik, Inc., 726 F.3d at 1143 (quotation omitted). “The nonmoving party is entitled to all reasonable inferences from the record; but if the nonmovant bears the burden of persuasion on a claim at trial, summary judgment may be warranted if the movant 5 points out a lack of evidence to support an essential element of that claim and the nonmovant cannot identify specific facts that would create a genuine issue.” Id. at 1143-44. III. Disability Claims Against Corizon In the pretrial order, plaintiff asserts claims for disability discrimination against defendant Corizon under the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA), 42 U.S.C. § 12101, as amended by the ADA Amendments Act of 2008 (ADAAA), Pub. L. No. 110-325, 122 Stat. 3553. According to plaintiff, Corizon terminated her employment on the basis of her disability and failed to accommodate plaintiff’s request for an accommodation. Corizon moves for summary judgment on these claims. A. Termination Claim The ADAAA prohibits employers from discriminating against “a qualified individual on the basis of disability.” 42 U.S.C. § 12112(a). To establish a prima facie case of employment discrimination under the ADA, plaintiff must present evidence that (1) she is disabled within the meaning of the ADAAA; (2) she is qualified to perform the essential functions of her job with or without accommodations; and (3) she was terminated under circumstances which give rise to an inference that the termination was based on his disability. Smothers v. Solvay Chems., Inc., 740 F.3d 530, 544 (10th Cir. 2014) (citations omitted). If plaintiff is able to make such a showing with respect to her discrimination claim, the burden shifts to defendant to articulate some legitimate, nondiscriminatory reason for the termination decision. Carter v. Pathfinder Energy Services, Inc., 662 F.3d 1134, 1141 (10th Cir. 2011) (citing McDonnell Douglas v. Green, 411 6 U.S. 792, 802 (1973)). Plaintiff then bears the ultimate burden of showing that defendant’s proffered reason is in fact a pretext designed to mask discrimination. See id. (citing McDonnell Douglas, 411 U.S. at 804). In its motion, Corizon contends that summary judgment is appropriate as to plaintiff’s claim that Corizon terminated her employment on the basis of her post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) because plaintiff has come forward with no evidence that her PTSD substantially limits one or more of plaintiff’s major life activities such that her prima facie case fails as to the first element. As will be explained, summary judgment is granted in Corizon’s favor on plaintiff’s discrimination claim because there is no evidence that plaintiff’s PTSD substantially limits plaintiff’s major life activities. Thus, because this case turns solely on whether plaintiff is disabled, the court declines to address the remaining arguments raised by Corizon in support of its motion. Congress has provided three statutory definitions for “disability” under the ADA: A plaintiff may show “(A) a physical or mental impairment that substantially limits one or more of the major life activities of such individual; (B) a record of such an impairment; or (C) being regarded as having such an impairment.” Smothers v. Solvay Chems., Inc., 740 F.3d 530, 544 (10th Cir. 2014) (quoting 42 U.S.C. § 12102(1)). The ADA limits its protections, then, by recognizing that not all impairments are disabilities. EEOC v. BNSF Railway Co., ___ F.3d ___, 2017 WL 1325653, at *1 (10th Cir. Apr. 11, 2017). In the pretrial order, plaintiff contends only that Corizon discriminated against her on the basis of an actual disability under subsection (A). In her response to the motion for summary judgment, plaintiff alleges, in addition to the claim 7 she asserts in the pretrial order, that Corizon discriminated against her on the basis of a record of a disability. To demonstrate an actual disability under subsection (A), plaintiff must have a recognized impairment, must identify one or more appropriate major life activities, and show that the impairment substantially limits one or more of those activities. Felkins v. City of Lakewood, 774 F.3d 647, 650 (10th Cir. 2014). Here, plaintiff contends that her PTSD substantially limits two of plaintiff’s major life activities—sleeping and working.1 To show that her PTSD substantially limits one or more major life activity, plaintiff must show that she is substantially limited in her ability to perform the major life activity “as compared to most people in the general population.” 29 C.F.R. § 1630.2(j)(1)(ii). This analysis requires an “individual assessment,” id. § 1630.2(j)(1)(iv), and may take into consideration facts such as the difficulty, effort or time required to perform the major life activity; pain experienced when performing a major life activity; and/or the way the impairment affects the operation of a major bodily function. Id. § 1630.2(j)(4)(ii). A medical diagnosis is insufficient; rather, the ADA requires 1 In passing, plaintiff states on one occasion in her responsive brief that her PTSD substantially limits her ability to care for herself. Only one fact set forth by plaintiff arguably relates to her ability to care for herself. Treatment notes from Dr. Allen concerning a June 25, 2015 session with plaintiff indicate that plaintiff “had a rough week” and that plaintiff “had noticed that she was nearly completely lacking in motivation at home, and would sleep most of her off hours— letting chores pile up and socially withdrawing.” At the most, this evidence suggests that plaintiff, over a one-week period of time, had difficulty caring for herself. It is clearly not sufficient to support the inference that plaintiff’s PTSD substantially limited her ability to care for herself or, more to the point, that plaintiff cannot care for herself in the condition, manner or duration of the average person. See 29 C.F.R. § 1630.2(j) (substantial limitation assessed by severity of impairment, length of impairment and long-term impact of impairment); Burns v. Snow, 130 Fed. Appx. 973, 981-82 (10th Cir. May 16, 2005) (no significant limitation on ability to walk where evidence reflected difficulty walking on four occasions over an 11-month period). 8 plaintiffs to offer evidence that “the extent of the limitation caused by their impairment in terms of their own experience is substantial.” Wilkerson v. Shinseki, 606 F.3d 1256, 1262 (10th Cir. 2010). The court begins with plaintiff’s assertion that her PTSD substantially limits her ability to sleep. To survive summary judgment, plaintiff must show that a reasonable jury could find that her PTSD substantially limits her ability to sleep. Smothers v. Solvay Chemicals, Inc., 740 F.3d 530, 545 (10th Cir. 2014). To do so, she must provide evidence that she is “significantly restricted as to the condition, manner or duration” of sleep as compared to the average person. Id. (citing Berry v. T-Mobile USA, Inc., 490 F.3d 1211, 1216-17 (10th Cir. 2007)). In support of her assertion that her PTSD substantially limits her ability to sleep, plaintiff relies solely on four progress notes from Dr. Allen, her treating psychologist. Those notes cover a timespan of only 5 weeks—from June 4, 2015 to July 9, 2015. The notes indicate that plaintiff had been experiencing intermittent sleep problems since her return to work in mid-May 2015. The June 4, 2015 progress note, for example, indicates that plaintiff was having “difficulty sleeping” since her return to work and that plaintiff had been experiencing nightmares that disrupted her sleep since her return to the prison setting. The June 18, 2015 progress note states that plaintiff had difficulty “getting to sleep and maintaining sleep” and was experiencing “nightmares on and off.” One week later, Dr. Allen noted that plaintiff had a “rough week” caused by having to care for a female corrections officer who had been assaulted by an inmate. Dr. Allen wrote that plaintiff, during that week, “would sleep most of her off hours.” Finally, in her July 9, 2015 progress notes, Dr. Allen stated that plaintiff had a “recurrence” of nightmares after another nurse was attacked by an inmate. 9 For two reasons, plaintiff’s evidence is insufficient to survive summary judgment. First, her evidence demonstrates that she suffered from sleep disruption and nightmares over roughly a two-month period in 2015—a relatively short period of time with no evidence of permanent or long-term disruption. See Corley v. Principi, 2007 WL 512513, at *735-36 (10th Cir. Feb. 20, 2007) (affirming summary judgment where evidence showed only intermittent periods of sleep disruption rather than permanent or long-term effects on the ability to sleep); Pack v. Kmart Corp. 166 F.3d 1300, 1306 (10th Cir. 1999) (affirming grant of judgment as a matter of law when plaintiff’s evidence of episodes of sleep disruption over a six-month period failed to establish her problems were severe, long-term, or had a permanent impact); McWilliams v. Jefferson County, 463 F.3d 1113, 1116–17 (10th Cir. 2006) (affirming summary judgment when evidence showed only intermittent depressive episodes that caused difficulty sleeping); Doyal v. Oklahoma Heart, Inc., 213 F.3d 492, 497-98 (10th Cir. 2000) (intermittent insomnia over twoyear period due to depression insufficient to show substantial limitation in sleeping, and intermittent period of excessive sleeping precluded inference that insomnia was severe or permanent). Second, she offers no evidence, as she must, demonstrating how her difficulties sleeping compare to those of the average person in the general population. Indeed, her evidence of sleep disruption is even less than the evidence set forth by the plaintiff (and rejected by the Circuit) in Humbles v. Principi, 141 Fed. Appx. 709, 712 (10th Cir. July 7, 2005). In that case, the plaintiff presented evidence that his PTSD resulted in his getting only four to five hours of sleep per night. The Tenth Circuit nonetheless affirmed the grant of summary judgment in the absence of any evidence that the plaintiff’s sleep disturbances “presented a substantial limitation compared 10 to the general public.” Id. As the Circuit has recognized, many people in the general population “of course, have . . . trouble sleeping.” Johnson v. Weld County, 594 F.3d 1202, 1218 n.10 (10th Cir. 2010). Plaintiff, then, has simply not shown that her sleeping troubles qualify her as disabled for purposes of the ADA. Cf. Smothers, 740 F.3d at 546 (factual issues existed about whether plaintiff’s sleep was substantially limited where evidence showed that plaintiff, for more than 2 years, consistently complained of an inability to sleep more than four to six hours each night and consistently complained of waking multiple times each night due to pain). Plaintiff’s assertion that her PTSD substantially limits her ability to work fares no better. Plaintiff contends that Corizon’s own reaction to the attack demonstrates that, at the time of her termination, she was substantially limited in her ability to work. Plaintiff highlights evidence that high-level management at Corizon all agreed at the time of the attack that plaintiff would need mental health support and forecasted that plaintiff could need treatment beyond the three counseling visits provided under Corizon’s employee assistance program. She highlights a statement from Gerald Jorgenson, Corizon’s senior director of operations for the Kansas region, in which he noted that plaintiff’s mental health could be “a long standing issue” after the assault and that some management level employees doubted whether plaintiff would be able to return to work at Corizon following the assault. But the fact that plaintiff’s employer recognized the seriousness of the assault and the support that plaintiff would undoubtedly require in the aftermath of that assault does not render plaintiff’s PTSD “substantially limiting” for purposes of the ADA. A “disability” for purposes of the ADA requires more than a medical diagnosis of a particular condition; it requires substantial limitation on a major life activity. See Williams v. Hallmark Cards, Inc., 10 Fed. Appx. 790, 793 (10th Cir. June 5, 2001). 11 The reaction of plaintiff’s employer to the assault does not demonstrate in any way that plaintiff’s PTSD substantially limited her ability to work. The only other evidence that plaintiff sets forth relating to her ability to work are Dr. Allen’s progress notes from June and July 2015. Those notes support the inference that plaintiff was substantially limited in her ability to work in a prison setting. The notes demonstrate that her PTSD symptoms could be triggered in a prison setting and that plaintiff continued to suffer from anxiety “in the prison population.” But to be disabled in the major life activity of working, an employee must be “significantly restricted in the ability to perform either a class of jobs or a broad range of jobs in various classes as compared to the average person having comparable training, skills and abilities.” Allen v. SouthCrest Hosp., 455 Fed. Appx. 827, 834 (10th Cir. 2011) (citations omitted). Working as a nurse in a prison setting does not qualify as a class or broad range of jobs—and plaintiff does not contend otherwise. Plaintiff also suggests that her 10-month leave of absence from work is sufficient to show a substantial limitation on her ability to work. The problem with plaintiff’s argument, however, is that there is no evidence from which a jury could reasonably conclude that she was totally unable to work for the duration of her leave. The record certainly supports the conclusion that plaintiff could not work in a prison setting during her leave of absence. But there is no evidence that she was unable or restricted from working in any other environment during her leave of absence from Corizon. Even Dr. Allen testified that she had never concluded at any time—including during plaintiff’s leave of absence—that plaintiff was unable to work. For the foregoing reasons, then, plaintiff cannot show that she suffered from an actual disability at the time of her termination. 12 In her response to the motion for summary judgment, plaintiff also asserts that Corizon discriminated against her based on a “record” of disability—again, plaintiff’s 10-month leave of absence from work during which, according to plaintiff, she was totally unable to work in light of her PTSD. The pretrial order is devoid of any reference to a “record” of a disability under subsection (B) and, accordingly, the court agrees with Corizon that this theory has been waived. See Genesis Health Clubs, Inc. v. LED Solar & Light Co., 639 Fed. Appx. 550, 555 (10th Cir. 2016); Roberts v. Cessna Aircraft Co., 289 Fed. Appx. 321, 328 n.5 (10th Cir. Aug. 14, 2008). But even if plaintiff had preserved the theory, she has not raised a fact issue on whether she had a record of a disability. “To have a record of such an impairment, a plaintiff must have a history of, or been misclassified as having, an impairment that substantially limited a major life activity.” Doebele v. Sprint/United Management Co., 342 F.3d 1117, 1132 (10th Cir. 2003) (quoting Sorensen v. Univ. of Utah Hosp., 194 F.3d 1084, 1087 (10th Cir. 1999)). “The recordof-impairment standard is satisfied only if she actually suffered [an impairment] that substantially limited one or more of her major life activities.” Id. Plaintiff, as with her actual disability claim, asserts that she satisfies this definition on the basis of her 10-month leave of absence from work, contending that her leave constitutes a record showing that her PTSD substantially limited her ability to work. The court rejects this argument for the same reason it rejected the same argument in connection with plaintiff’s actual disability claim. As such, plaintiff has not set forth evidence demonstrating a factual issue on whether she had a record of a disability. Summary judgment is appropriate on her disability discrimination claim. B. Failure to Accommodate Claim 13 The ADAAA prohibits an employer from “unlawfully discriminating against an employee by failing to make reasonable accommodations to the known physical or mental limitations of an otherwise qualified individual with a disability who is an . . . employee.” Dewitt v. Southwestern Bell Tel. Co., 845 F.3d 1299, 1315 (10th Cir. 2017) (citations and quotations omitted). The statute, then, creates a cause of action for disabled employees whose employers fail to reasonably accommodate them. Id. Summary judgment is appropriate on this claim because plaintiff has not established that she is disabled for purposes of the ADA. See Felkins v. City of Lakewood, 774 F.3d 647, 649 (10th Cir. 2014) (declining to address failure to accommodate issue where plaintiff failed to present sufficient evidence of disability); Sanchez v. Vilsack, 695 F.3d 1174, 1177-78 & n.2 (10th Cir. 2012) (to prevail on a failure-to-accommodate claim, plaintiff must demonstrate that he or she is disabled). IV. Rehabilitation Act Claim against the KDOC Plaintiff asserts in the pretrial order that defendant KDOC issued the “gate stop” against plaintiff on the basis of her disability in violation of the Rehabilitation Act, which prohibits recipients of federal funding from discriminating on the basis of disability. 29 U.S.C. § 794(a).2 The elements required to establish a violation of the Rehabilitation Act are the same as those required to establish a violation of the ADA. See Wilkerson v. Shinseki, 606 F.3d 1256, 1262 In her response to the KDOC’s motion for summary judgment, plaintiff sets forth an additional claim of disability discrimination against the KDOC—that the KDOC, after receiving notice of plaintiff’s PTSD diagnosis, refused to offer plaintiff the opportunity to explain to Warden Cline why the temporary gate stop should not become permanent. Because this claim is not contained in the pretrial order, it has been waived. See Genesis Health Clubs, Inc. v. LED Solar & Light Co., 639 Fed. Appx. 550, 555 (10th Cir. 2016). 2 14 (10th Cir. 2010). Thus, because plaintiff has not set forth evidence demonstrating a factual issue on whether she had an actual disability or a record of a disability for purposes of the ADA, she cannot establish a disability for purposes of the Rehabilitation Act. Summary judgment, then, is granted in favor of the KDOC on this claim.3 V. Section 1983 Claim against the KDOC and Sam Cline Finally, plaintiff asserts a Fourteenth Amendment substantive due process claim against defendants KDOC and Warden Sam Cline based on a theory of state-created danger. The KDOC moves for summary judgment on the grounds that plaintiff’s claim is barred by the Eleventh Amendment. Plaintiff concedes as much in her response and clarifies that her § 1983 claim is asserted against Warden Cline in his individual capacity. The KDOC’s motion on this issue, then, is granted. Warden Cline asserts that he is entitled to summary judgment on this claim based on qualified immunity. Qualified immunity “protects ‘all but the plainly incompetent or those who knowingly violate the law.’” Thomas v. Durastanti, 607 F.3d 655, 661 n.4 (10th Cir. 2010). When a defendant asserts qualified immunity at summary judgment, the “burden shifts to the plaintiff to show that: (1) the defendant violated a constitutional right 3 Plaintiff broadly asserts in the pretrial order that the KDOC failed to accommodate her disability but there is no evidence in the record of any request by plaintiff to the KDOC for an accommodation and there are no facts from which the court might discern the need for an accommodation from the KDOC. Viewed in the light most favorable to plaintiff, the sole accommodation she desired was the ability to leave work early on July 9, 2015 in light of her PTSD symptoms. It is uncontroverted that the KDOC had no knowledge of that request. Thus, even if plaintiff had demonstrated the existence of a factual dispute on whether she is disabled, summary judgment would nonetheless be warranted on her failure-to-accommodate claim. See Dewitt v. Southwestern Bell Tel. Co., 845 F.3d 1299, 1315-16 (10th Cir. 2017) (employer’s duty to accommodate is not triggered until employee makes request). 15 and (2) the constitutional right was clearly established.” Courtney v. Oklahoma ex rel. Dep’t of Public Safety, 722 F.3d 1216, 1222 (10th Cir. 2013) (quoting Becker v. Bateman, 709 F.3d 1019, 1022 (10th Cir. 2013)). As will be explained, plaintiff has not established that Warden Cline violated her constitutional rights. The court, then, declines to address whether the right alleged by plaintiff was clearly established. The Tenth Circuit has recognized only two exceptions to the general rule that the Due Process Clause imposes no duty to protect against private violence—when the state has assumed a special relationship with and control over an individual (as when the individual is in state custody) and when a state official “created the very danger that caused the harm.” See Estate of B.I.C. v. Gillen, 761 F.3d 1099, 1105 (10th Cir. 2014). Plaintiff does not argue that the first exception applies; rather, she relies solely on the danger-creation exception. “The state-created danger theory is a means by which a state actor might be held liable for an act of private violence absent a custodial relationship between the victim and the State, under narrowly prescribed circumstances bearing upon conduct, causation, and state of mind, provided the danger the state actor created, or rendered the victim more vulnerable to, precipitated a deprivation of life, liberty, or property in the constitutional sense.” Gray v. Univ. of Colorado Hosp. Authority, 672 F.3d 909, 922 (10th Cir. 2012) (emphasis in original). It is a “narrow exception, which applies only when a state actor affirmatively acts to create . . . danger from private violence.” Id. at 921. To establish a claim under that theory, plaintiff must show that (1) the charged individual actor created the danger or increased plaintiff’s vulnerability to the danger in some way; (2) plaintiff was a member of a limited and specifically definable group; (3) defendant’s conduct put 16 plaintiff at substantial risk of serious, immediate, and proximate harm; (4) the risk was obvious or known; (5) defendant acted recklessly in conscious disregard of that risk; and (6) such conduct, when viewed in total, is conscience shocking. See Gillen, 761 F.3d at 1105. In addition, there are two “preconditions” that plaintiff must establish—that the state actor engaged in affirmative conduct and that there was private violence. Id. In his motion for summary judgment, Warden Cline asserts that plaintiff cannot establish a substantive due process violation because she has not shown the first precondition, an affirmative act on the part of Warden Cline. Warden Cline further contends that plaintiff has not shown that Warden Cline’s conduct was conscience shocking. As explained below, the court agrees that plaintiff cannot establish a substantive due process violation for both of these reasons. In the pretrial order, plaintiff alleges that Warden Cline engaged in affirmative conduct by disregarding Inmate Stumpner’s “No Female Contact” designation; by failing to equip plaintiff with an alarm or panic button or to have one within her reach; by failing to station an officer within hearing range of plaintiff while she was treating inmate Stumpner; and by leaving plaintiff alone with inmate Stumpner. In her response to Warden Cline’s summary judgment motion, however, she concedes that Warden Cline had no knowledge of any “No Female Contact” designation and that she cannot proceed on this theory. Moreover, she does not mention in her response Warden Cline’s failure to provide an alarm or panic button within her reach or Warden Cline’s failure to station an officer within hearing range of plaintiff—despite the fact that Warden Cline expressly moved for summary judgment on those theories. Plaintiff’s failure to address those theories, then, is fatal to her claim. Hinsdale v. City of Liberal, Kansas, 19 Fed. Appx. 749, 769 (10th Cir. 2001) (failure to address claims or theories in summary 17 judgment response is fatal to claims when moving party has made an argument as to why summary judgment is appropriate). Summary judgment is appropriate in any event on plaintiff’s theories that Warden Cline failed to provide an alarm and failed to station an officer within hearing range of plaintiff because a failure to act is not an affirmative act. See Estate of B.I.C. v. Gillen, 710 F.3d 1168, 1173 (10th Cir. 2013) (inaction is not enough to invoke state-created danger theory); Briggs v. Johnson, 274 Fed. Appx. 730, 734 (10th Cir. 2008) (To state a claim under the danger creation theory, the defendant’s actions must involve affirmative conduct; the failure to act, even in the face of a known risk, is insufficient.). Plaintiff’s sole remaining theory is that Warden Cline “left plaintiff alone” with inmate Stumpner—a theory that she fleshes out somewhat in her response. According to plaintiff, Warden Cline is liable to her because he “accepted the transfer” of inmate Stumpner from another facility; he ignored information about or failed to investigate inmate Stumpner’s propensity to commit sexual and violent attacks on female staff members; and he failed to warn the staff at HCF that inmate Stumpner had been transferred due to an attack on a female staff member. To begin, none of these specific theories are preserved in the pretrial order and have been waived. See Cortez v. Wal–Mart Stores, Inc., 460 F.3d 1268, 1276–77 (10th Cir. 2006) (claims, issues, defenses or theories of damages not included in the pretrial order are waived). But summary judgment is appropriate on these theories in any event. Warden Cline’s acceptance of the transfer of inmate Stumpner nearly 8 months prior to the attack on plaintiff is too remote to establish a causal link between the danger to plaintiff and the resulting harm. Affirmative conduct for purposes of the state-created danger theory imposes an immediate threat of harm (which by its nature has a limited range and duration) directed at a discrete plaintiff. 18 Ruiz v. McDonnell, 299 F.3d 1173, 1183 (10th Cir. 2002). In Ruiz, the Circuit rejected a “danger creation” § 1983 claim where the plaintiff alleged that the state actors had improperly licensed a daycare facility (where a child was shaken to death) after failing to conduct an investigation into the facility. See id. The Circuit held that the improper licensure did not impose an immediate threat of harm but only a threat of an indefinite range and duration. Id. Similarly, Warden Cline’s November 2013 acceptance of inmate Stumpner’s transfer imposed, at most, a threat of indefinite range and duration. Moreover, Warden Cline’s acceptance of the transfer did not specifically put plaintiff (who was not even working at the facility at the time of the transfer) at risk as opposed to all other female staff at HCF. See id. (unlike the direct placement of a child into an abusive home, the licensure of a daycare facility was not aimed at decedent directly but affected public at large, even if, in reality, the licensure only enhanced the danger of abuse to the children enrolled in the facility); Gray v. Univ. of Colorado Hosp. Authority, 672 F.3d 909, 927 (10th Cir. 2012) (defendants’ challenged policies were not aimed at decedent directly; no affirmative conduct sufficient to impose liability even though policies did not increase danger to the public at large in any real sense but rather to a defined group— namely patients in the Epilepsy Monitoring Unit). Warden Cline’s acceptance of the transfer request, then, is not sufficient to impose liability under a danger-creation theory. Plaintiff’s allegations that Warden Cline failed to investigate inmate Stumpner’s alleged propensity to commit sexual attacks on female staff members and failed to warn the staff about the previous attack cannot support her § 1983 claim because, as noted earlier, a failure to act, even in the face of a known risk, is not sufficient to support § 1983 liability under a dangercreation theory. See Estate of B.I.C. v. Gillen, 710 F.3d 1168, 1173 (10th Cir. 2013) (inaction is 19 not enough to invoke state-created danger theory). In an effort to avoid this result, plaintiff contends that the Tenth Circuit, in Currier v. Doran, 242 F.3d 905 (10th Cir. 2001), recognized that a state actor’s failure-to-investigate can be considered an “affirmative” act for purposes of the danger-creation theory. Plaintiff misconstrues the Currier decision. In that case, the state granted physical, and eventually legal, custody of two young children to the children’s father. 242 F.3d at 909–10. Prior to the state granting physical custody to the father, a state social worker assigned to the case became aware of the father’s history of financial irresponsibility with respect to the children, including making only eight child support payments in the previous three years. Id. at 909. Despite this knowledge, the social worker said nothing to the Children’s Court during the hearing at which physical custody was awarded to the father. Id. Later, but prior to the father gaining legal custody of the children, the same social worker noticed bruises on the children on at least two occasions while the children were in the physical custody of the father, and was informed on at least three other occasions that the children’s father and/or the father’s girlfriend were allegedly abusing the children. Id. at 909–10, 919. Despite these indications of abuse, the social worker failed to launch any investigation and ultimately, through either his affirmative recommendation or his silence with respect to the indications of abuse, was responsible for the father obtaining legal custody of the children. Id. The father later killed one of the children by scalding him with boiling water. Id. at 910. While the Circuit in Currier observed “that the defendant had failed to investigate or act on the allegations of abuse,” the Circuit also noted “that this failure to act should be viewed in the general context of the state’s affirmative conduct in removing the children from their mother and placing the children with their father.” Gonzales v. City of Castle Rock, 307 F.3d 1258, 20 1263 (10th Cir. 2002) (citing Currier, 242 F.3d at 920 n.7); see Dahn v. Adoption Alliance, 2014 WL 12496539, at *12 (D. Colo. Aug. 28, 2014) (“It would be a misreading of Currier to suggest a danger creation claim can rest solely on a failure to investigate or a failure to ‘rescue’ an alleged victim of abuse.”). Unlike the facts presented in Currier, there is simply no evidence here that Warden Cline failed to investigate inmate Stumpner’s alleged propensity in the face of specific knowledge of real danger to plaintiff let alone that Warden Cline failed to investigate inmate Stumpner in the context of any affirmative conduct with respect to inmate Stumpner or plaintiff. The court, then, rejects plaintiff’s suggestion that Warden Cline’s failure to investigate is sufficient to establish the requisite affirmative conduct. For the foregoing reasons, the record does not reflect that Warden Cline engaged in any affirmative conduct that put plaintiff at substantial risk of serious, immediate, and proximate harm. The lack of affirmative conduct is fatal to plaintiff’s substantive due process claim. But even if plaintiff could show that Warden Cline engaged in affirmative conduct, summary judgment would nonetheless be appropriate because there is no evidence from which a reasonable jury could conclude that Warden Cline’s conduct was conscience shocking. The “ultimate standard for determining whether there has been a substantive due process violation is ‘whether the challenged government action shocks the conscience of federal judges.’” See Moore v. Guthrie, 438 F.3d 1036, 1040 (10th Cir. 2006) (quotations omitted). It is well settled that “negligence is not sufficient to shock the conscience” and that plaintiff “must do more than show that the government actor intentionally or recklessly caused injury to the plaintiff by abusing or misusing government power.” Id. (citations omitted). Even knowingly permitting 21 unreasonable risks to continue does not necessarily rise to the level of conscience shocking. Id. Rather, the plaintiff must demonstrate a “high level of outrageousness.” Id. at 1041. In Uhlrig v. Harder, for example, the defendants closed a special unit in a mental hospital that was reserved for the criminally insane and higher risk patients, which led to the placement of a particular patient into the general hospital population where Ms. Uhlrig worked as a therapist. 64 F.3d 567, 569-70 (10th Cir. 1995). After the transfer, the patient assaulted and raped a female patient in one unit and was then transferred to another unit where he attacked and killed Ms. Uhlrig. Id. at 571. The Circuit held that the defendants’ decision to close the special unit in the mental hospital and transfer the particular patient to the general hospital population did not shock the conscience. In doing so, the Circuit emphasized: [W]e must bear in mind three basic principles highlighted by the Supreme Court in evaluating substantive due process claims: (1) the need for restraint in defining their scope; (2) the concern that § 1983 not replace state tort law; and (3) the need for deference to local policymaking bodies in making decisions impacting upon public safety. 64 F.3d at 573. The Circuit held that the defendants’ conduct did not shock the conscience because none of the defendants “intended to injure” Ms. Uhlrig when it decided to close the special unit, “nor were they indifferent to the risk that would be created by such action.” Id. at 576. The Circuit found “no difficulty” concluding that defendants did not engage in egregious or outrageous conduct because the defendants did not affirmatively mislead Ms. Uhlrig about the risks created by the decision to close the unit and because the defendants’ actions “resemble those typical of legitimate governmental decisions in times of scarcity—that is, the making of difficult policy choices to reconcile various competing social, political, and economic forces.” Id. 22 On two separate occasions, the Circuit has analyzed the conscience-shocking standard in the context of a prison librarian who was raped by an inmate. On both occasions, the Circuit found that the defendants’ negligence in removing a corrections officer from the library for the librarian’s protection was not so egregious as to shock the conscience. In Liebson v. New Mexico Corrections Dep’t, 73 F.3d 274 (10th Cir. 1996), the Circuit rejected a substantive due process claim based on allegations that correction officials failed to provide adequate security to the librarian. In that case, the plaintiff alleged that prison officials violated her substantive due process rights when they changed the schedule of an officer assigned to the library such that she was on duty as a librarian with no officer present when she was kidnapped, held hostage and sexually assaulted by an inmate library assistant. Id. at 275. The Circuit held that the plaintiff failed to allege any conduct that shocked the conscience. Id. at 276. Similarly, in Maine v. Oklahoma Department of Corrections, 1997 WL 602688 (10th Cir. Sept. 30, 1997), the Circuit rejected a substantive due process claim where the plaintiff—a prison librarian—failed to present evidence that the defendants’ conduct was conscience-shocking. In that case, the evidence reflected that the prison lacked sufficient security officers to make the required hourly security checks of the library and lacked the funds necessary to provide employees with twoway radios or body alarms. Id. at *5. Because there was no evidence that prison officials had intentionally isolated the plaintiff or took affirmative steps to place her in danger, the Circuit held that their conduct did not reflect a wanton or complete indifference to risk despite the fact that the plaintiff was raped by an inmate in the library. Id. In support of her argument that Warden Cline’s conduct shocks the conscience, plaintiff relies on the Tenth Circuit’s opinions in Currier and Armijo ex rel. Chavez v. Wagon Mound 23 Public Schools, 159 F.3d 1253 (10th Cir. 1998). As explained above, the facts of Currier are distinguishable from the facts of this case. The social worker in Currier noticed bruises on the children on two occasions and was informed on three other occasions that the children’s father was abusing the children. 242 F.3d 905, 909-10 (10th Cir. 2001). Despite strong indications of abuse, the social worker facilitated the father obtaining legal custody of the children. Id. at 910. The Circuit found that, although it was a “close question,” the facts alleged were sufficiently conscience-shocking to warrant a trial on the substantive due process claim in light of the totality of the allegations concerning the social worker’s conduct. Id. at 920. In Armijo, the Circuit found triable questions of fact on the plaintiff’s § 1983 danger-creation claim where a special needs student committed suicide after the principal and counselor suspended him from school and then left him home alone, where he had access to firearms. 159 F.3d at 1264. The evidence in that case demonstrated that the principal and counselor potentially increased the risk of harm to the student because they suspended him; they knew he was angry and distraught; they knew he had made suicidal comments; they knew he had access to firearms at home; they drove him and then left him at home alone in violation of a disciplinary policy that prohibited out-ofschool suspensions when a student’s parent was not home; and they failed to notify his parents. See id. Like the social worker in Currier, then, the principal and counselor in Armijo took several affirmative, deliberate steps with respect to the plaintiff that significantly increased the risk of harm to that plaintiff, particularly in light of their knowledge of the plaintiff’s vulnerability. The facts in the record before the court are much more akin to those analyzed by the Circuit in Uhlrig, Liebson and Maine. Viewing the evidence in the light most favorable to plaintiff, Warden Cline did not intend to injure plaintiff and did not take any affirmative steps to 24 place plaintiff in danger. Warden Cline’s conduct, as described by plaintiff, amounts to negligence which, as a matter of law, does not rise to the level of a due process violation. See Uhlrig, 64 F.3d at 573-74. In sum, plaintiff has not come forward with facts from which a reasonable jury could find that Warden Cline’s conduct was so egregious, outrageous or fraught with unreasonable risk so as to shock the conscience. See id. at 576. Warden Cline, then, is entitled to qualified immunity with respect to plaintiff’s substantive due process claim. Summary judgment in his favor is granted. IT IS THEREFORE ORDERED BY THE COURT THAT defendant Corizon Health, Inc.’s motion for summary judgment (doc. 82) is granted and defendants Sam Cline and the Kansas Department of Correction’s motion for summary judgment (doc. 84) is granted. IT IS SO ORDERED. Dated this 25th day of April, 2017, at Kansas City, Kansas. s/ John W. Lungstrum John W. Lungstrum United States District Judge 25

The two significant life events I chose to examine further are, when I met my fiancé and when I received my GED. I chose these two events because they were the most life changing, I am a better person for them. When I met my fiancé, I was at a horrible point in my life.When he entered my life, he helped me get back on my feet. He was there for me when I could not depend on anyone else and I am forever grateful to have met him. I also chose receiving my GED as another pivotal life event. Obtaining my GED has opened the door for me to further my education and it is something I would not have pursued if not for my fiancé's support. Passing the test was one of my biggest achievements, and I am very proud of my score. If not for these two major life changing events, I definitely would not be enrolled at Ashford, on my way to a Bachelor's degree.
Urie Brofenbrenner proposed a theory of five overlapping ecological systems. They focus on broad, interconnected influences on human development, such as the interactions between individuals and their environment (Mossler, 2013) While examining Brofenbrenner's rings influence on me meeting my fiancé, John, I discovered how much society comes into play. The microsystems' influence stems from the fact that we were introduced by mutual friends. The exosystem's influence lies in the fact we grew up in the same neighborhood and come from the same economic standings. This aided in John and I having similar life experiences which helped us to

Raw Meat starts off on the top of a roof. If you turn to your right, there is a door here that when raised will reveal a Devastator. Grab it. After you take out a few enemies that will come up on the roof, jump off. If you look down first, you'll see water. Jump in the water, and you won't take damage. After you do that, resurface and come out of the water. There is some health and ammo on a window ledge and just lying around outside, so grab it. After you have picked up everything, make your way up the ramp.
After you take care of a few Enforcers that will jump out, there is a hidden area here (but not a secret). It contains an Atomic health. Jump inside the area where the Enforcers came from (it is behind the RPG in the screenshot above). When you get in there, you will get some pipebombs as well as the Atomic health. Send a pipebomb down towards the crack at the back end of the area you are in, and a wall will open up. Go in there, and you will end up in the water.
Make your way back out through the water and to the start of the level. Once you do that, make your way into the restaurant. As you progress down the hallway, some of the doors on your left will open. You will be attacked by aliens who were in these dining rooms. You will want to open the door to the middle one. In it is a sushi table on the floor.
As you approach the table, it will recess into the floor. You will want to go down into the room that is down here. When you do, you will see a switch on a wall. Flip it.
After you've come back up from this area, make your way around the back of the hallway past the "Bar" sign. You will come across another room that is full of various kinds of captured pod girls, and slimer eggs.
The way out is on the other side of the room. You can walk past all the podgirls if you want, but you will be attacked by all the slimers in the eggs. Your best bet is to send a rocket in the middle there and blow up everything. (A note about this room - stepping on the sushi tables will cause Octabrains to spawn in the room - stay off if you can). Once you do that, and take care of any enemies that spawn in the room open the blue double doors at the far end. This will reveal a small room with two Enforcers who are guarding the blue key. Grab the key, which is in a small compartment behind the cash register.
Once you collect the blue key, you can either go back through the room you just came in, or you can push a button on the wall, which will open the doors in front of you. Either way you need to make your way back to the bar area where the locked blue door is. Open the door, and take out the pigcops who are waiting on the other side for you.
After you go through the blue key door, go down the ramp and take a left and go into the Karaoke room, taking out any resistance in the room.
Going up on the stage will spawn some more pig cops out in the hallway, so watch out for that. Behind the right most speaker is a RPG, you'll want that, too. Also, singing on the microphone is one of the more well known jokes in the game. You don't get any secrets for it, but Duke's rendition of "Born to be Willlllld" is not to be missed.
After you're done in the Karaoke bar, make your way out and head left. There is a moving sushi table that will (if you watch long enough) bring out several useful items (like an Atomic health for one). Grab the items from there, and head for the double doors that lead to the kitchen. If they are not already open, then do so, and make your way in. When you do, a gaggle of Enforcers will come after you. Take them out.
After the kitchen combat, you may wish to make use of the health that is inside the freezer room, as well as in a health compartment right next to it. When you're done, make your way to the back of the kitchen area. You will see a small sink with water in it. You will need to jump in here and submerge.
Doing so will leave you a in a larger underwater area of the level. Swimming around a bit will reveal a control panel next to a closed door. Using this control panel will open the door, and lead you into another underwater room.
Once you open up this door, the room in front of you will be crawling with pod girls, Octabrains, slimers, etc. The goal here is to get to the other side of the room and get the red key. You can either engage the aliens here, or run past them, hoping to get out with the key. Your choice. If you need help with being underwater, you can surface here. You will find some scuba gear to use. You can't get out of this surface area, so resubmerge - you need something down here anyway.
The far end of the room contains the red key and a switch. The switch opens the gate in front of you. At this point, you can either go through the gate, which leads you back to the start of the level. To get to the place you need to use the red key, you can either backtrack through the water, or go through the gate, and run back though the level. Again, your choice.
Whichever way you choose to get back to the kitchen, once you arrive back there, you need to make your way down a stairwell in the back of the kitchen. This leads to the red key door. Go down there and open up the door.
Once you do that, make your way through, and when you start heading up the ramp, a few Enforcers will spawn behind you, so you'll need to take 'em down to have a peaceful exit for the level. :)
When you make your way up the top of the ramp, the wall next to you will start exploding. If you are low on health, you may not want to be here until the explosions subside. Once they do, it will open up an area in the wall that contains the exit.
Hit the exit be taken to Level 2, "Bank Roll". By the way, if you look out a crack in the wall in this area, you can see part of the start of the Bank Roll level, too. :)
Raw Meat Secrets
Raw Meat has seven secrets. The secrets can generally be retrieved in any order, you are not bound to the order shown here - but the flow of the level sort of makes you want to get them in the order below. These are the areas that are recognized as secrets by the game. There are a few other areas that are not recognized by the game as secrets. This secrets area will only show the "true" secrets in the level.
Secret #1: Behind the Statue
When you first enter the restaurant, you will see a red Geisha statue. Near that is an invisible wall that you have to jump through. "X Marks the Spot" in the screenshot below.
Once you go in there, you will be awarded with the first secret of this level.
Secret #2: Push Her Button
The second secret is right next to the first. In the hallway, there is a poster with a babe, and the words "Exotica Tonight". This is a secret compartment. If you uh, "use" the lower part of her bikini on the picture, the wall will drop, revealing a shrinker. Go in there and get it for the second secret.
Secret #3: Talk to the Hand
The third secret is also right near the first two. At the end of the hallway after the second secret, you see a menu board with a handprint on it. Push the hand, and it will reveal a secret compartment with an armor in it. Go in there, get the armor to collect the third secret.
Secret #4: Secret Health
The fourth secret in this level is in the same area as the first three. Inside the third of the three sushi rooms, you will see a crack on the wall. Blow it up to reveal a secret area with some healths. Go in there to collect the items and the fourth secret.
Secret #5: Hidden in the Double Doors
The fifth secret is right after the moving sushi bar. You will see a pair of wooden double doors near the floor in a hallway. Open them to reveal some night vision goggles. However, this is not the secret. When you are crouched in this area, push on the back wall. It will move out of the way revealing another compartment containing some pipebombs and some ripper ammo. Go into this room to collect the items and the fifth secret.
Secret #6: Hidden Freezer
The sixth secret is right next to the fifth. When you come out of the area where the fifth secret was, you will see a bloody handprint on the wall. Press that, and a door will open in the corner of the room to your right. In that room is a freezer and a security camera. Go in there to collect the sixth secret.
Secret #7: Not really the wine
The final secret is in the kitchen area. You will see what looks like a wine cabinet. Open it to reveal two RPG ammo packs and the seventh secret - go get them! | http://legacy.3drealms.com/duke3d/walkthrough/e3m1.html | 1,664,497,209 |

No two businesses are alike. Whether you like it or not, there’s no equal opportunity that you can have. Some may become successful in their startup business some might eventually fail. Some businesses are more suitable for others and some might be just perfect for you.
Discover the Right Investment is Suited for You
The question is how would you be able to find a business that falls into the latter?
It is hard and no one can predict the answer to this question. BUT… there’s a series of question that you can ask yourself which can help big time in narrowing which path to take.
By asking yourself the questions discussed below, you’ll end up in an investment that you are truly passionate about.
Question number 1. Does your heart and passion is in this business opportunity?
If your answer is 50-50, then there’s a possibility that your concentration might adrift as you progress day after day and look for something which really catches your interest. What’s more, there is a chance that you may never become successful with this enterprise that you are taking on.
Otherwise, if you have a firm YES as the answer, then go ahead. Start doing research and get funding for your business by any means whether via applying for payday loans online, going to banks or financial institution or whatever that can provide you with what you need.
Question number 2. Is this a viable business?
Is someone willing to fund you in exchange of the service or product for your planned business? Keep in mind that until you start selling something, it is not a business, but merely a hobby that’s costing you money.
If there are some others who have the same business idea as yours, then you may want to try visiting their store and be a help for few days. This way, you can have firsthand experience of how customers are reacting to the service or product.
Question number 3. What’s the competition be like?
You must never be fooled into believing that a business has no competition. Keep this in mind, every business, especially the most viable one always have competition in them. If you can’t find any of them, then you should look harder. In the event that you can’t still find any, then you better start to worry. It’s because a business without competition is considered to be a red flag.

Fuchsia Fatuation
Hey Ya'll, I cant believe I waited till the end of month to drop another post! I've been extremely busy, with work and everything else life throws at you in between! April is literally around the corner, and toronto's weather is as bipolar as ever! Just when I thought I'd be ditching my jackets for shorts and stilettos, Instead I'm back to layering as if it was winter! Sucks don't it?
With that said these pics were taken, last week when it was warm and sunny! Pink has become one of my newest obsessions! I've never been a pink (or should I say different shades of pink) fan but lately I seem to have a lot of it in my closet! I got these trousers from zara a while back on sale, and I must say they fit like a glove! I regret not getting them in the teal color as well! I love that it has a tailored look and can be dressed up or down! Cant wait to wear them with printed cropped tops and coloured blouses! Just wish the weather would warm up already!
Wearing; Oliver peoples: sunglasses,Winners: necklace, H&M: top, Zara: pants & heels, BCBG: ring, F21: bracelet
I got some real cool thrift finds at my local Value Village. I got 3 silk tops and a couple belts! Thrifting is a great and inexpensive way to stay on trend, or for just buying classic/vintage pieces! Theres everything you can possibly imagine under one roof! Wish I was bigger on thrifting, I must admit that I've spent less money and gotten more items thrifting than shopping at regular retail stores! lastly the thing I love most about thrifting is that you'll be the only person wearing it, what a great way to set yourself apart from others who are wearing the same things, especially fashion bloggers! Stay true to yourself, and whatever it is that you wear make it your own!
Thanks for the continued support guys you are truly amazing! Special thanks to my newest followers, dont be a stranger! Have a safe and fun week and stay blessed!
xoxo TY

Think Pink!
THANK.GOD.IT'S. FRIDAY! Like always, I never have anything planned for the weekend, but doesn't mean I cant look forward to it just the same! I'm going to forget about my mountain piled laundry this weekend and pretend that it doesn't even exist! I'm going to read my fashion mags, sip on some home made marguerite's, torture myself with online goodies from ASOS and catch up on blogs! Yupp that's what im going to do! AHHH! Let the wekend begin!
So I loved the way this outfit turned out! Something refreshing about wearing the same color but in different shades! I've had this blazer for years, finally starting to put it to good use! There's so many pieces in my closet that has yet to see the light of day! *covers eyes* and still I keep purchasing more crap *like the hubby would put it* Going to start reinventing these old pieces and modernize them again! I believe a true fashionista can work with whatever is in her closet, old or new and still look fabulous!
These are currently my fave pair of jeans, comfy, amazing fit, and wears well with almost everything!
What I'm wearing: Jacket-Tommy Hilfiger, Top,necklace -F21, Jeans-Nudie, shoes-Christian Louboutin, Bag-LouisVuitton
I love this above pic!
Stay safe guys and enjoy your weekend! Party hard and be safe!
xoxo TY

Colourful. Casual. Cool
Hey Yall, its been a while! Been such a busy week for me! Can't believe the month of march is already here! Anyways I've been fighting the urge to shop but with all these sales going on I find it almost impossible! I'm loving all that spring has to offer this year!
What i'm wearing: BOD&CHRISTENSEN-jacket, BCBG-tank, H&M-clutch, G-Star-jeans, Converse-sneakers, Michael Kors-watch, OPI nail polish "fly" from -nicki minaj collection
I was cleaning out my closet a few days ago, and I came to the realization that I owned way too many trendy pieces! When you're a compulsive shopper such as myself, you tend to buy a lot of things for "liking" sakes! It does feel good to know that I didn't splurge on these pieces but at the same time I have a closet filled with outdated clothes! At this point do I stop wearing them, or do I find new ways to reinvent them? I know it might sound stupid to stop wearing clothes you once thought was the coolest, but trends come and go and no one wants to be seen wearing something that is not considered "fashionable" I think I've grown out of that brainwashed way of thinking!
My goal for this month and the year of 2012, is to limit the amount of trendy pieces that I buy! Classic pieces are always better investments in the end, like blazers, pencil skirts and form fitting dresses for a more clean and sophisticated silhouette! I am a very trendy person overall, but I think I need to find a balance of both classic and trendy! At the end of the day I still buy and wear what I like! Am I the only one who suffers with this problem? Took these pics a few days ago and didn't get to post them!
Enjoy the rest of your week guys! Stay Safe!!!
xoxo Ty

With every $115.00 Service Call, The Pool Boys® perform our On Point Checkup Pool Equipment Inspection. This inspection was designed to provide our customers with a thorough diagnosis of their pool filtration system.
Often times there are issues with the pool equipment that you aren’t even aware of that should be taken care of before they result in bigger more costly problems.

Pool Heaters & Chillers
Here in the Gulf Coast market, our pools stay open 12 months out of the year. However, let’s be honest, in the heat of the summer or the cold months of winter, the pool isn’t always enjoyable. Heating or cooling your pool can be a great way to extend your swim season by bringing the water to a temperature that is comfortable for you and your family.
Read more ...
Pool Automation & Control Systems
There is a wide selection of controls out there to operate your swimming pool equipment. In the past, a majority of pools were operated by mechanical timers that required a pool owner to go outside to the pool equipment to operate. Over the last 20 years, Automated Pool Control Systems have greatly increased in popularity making it even easier to control your pool.
Read more ...
Salt Systems
Salt Systems are an excellent way to sanitize your inground swimming pool. Over the last decade there has been a huge increase in the popularity of these systems. Salt Chlorine Generators can help you keep a more consistent chlorine level in the pool, resulting in easier pool maintenance and a better swimming experience.
Read more ...
Backwash Valves
Backwash Valves are mounted to the pool filter and are used for multiple things. Most commonly is “backwashing” and “wasting" water from your pool. Backwash Valves are used on D.E. and Sand Filters, but not on Cartridge Filters.
Hayward, Jandy, and Pentair all have their own models of these valves which we can repair and/or replace as needed. The Pool Boys will help you locate and diagnose any problems that are occurring with your Backwash Valve. Whether it is a Push-Pull or Multiport, our techs will know what needs to be done to handle the problem if needed.
Read more ...
Valves & Plumbing
There are many different issues that can occur with the valves and plumbing on an inground pool system. Things such as air leaks, water leaks, spas draining, and clogged lines or valves are typical problems.
Commonly used valves are the Jandy 2way Valves, Jandy 3way Valves, and Jandy Check Valves; Hayward, Pentair, Custom Molded Products, and Waterway also make their own version of these valves. Although we don’t do any underground plumbing repair, or leak detection, our technicians pride themselves in their ability to find and fix problems with valves and above ground plumbing issues. | https://poolboys.com/pool-equipment-services | 1,664,750,407 |
The thought of public speaking throws many people into a panic. Add to that fear the common discomfort of discussing death, and it's easy to understand why the idea of delivering a eulogy can be disconcerting. If you've been asked to write a eulogy, take heart. This article will help you put your fears in perspective so you can deliver a loving eulogy.
"Why me?"
You were probably asked to deliver a eulogy because of your close relationship to the deceased, and because the family trusts you to honor his or her memory on behalf of family and friends. The family doesn't want to make you feel uncomfortable, foolish or as though your grief is on display. It's an honor they've bestowed upon you. Helping others say goodbye may turn out to be a rewarding experience. Don't worry about making mistakes. A eulogy comes from the heart of the deliverer. I can't see how a mistake could be made as long as it is honest and true.
"I can't write."
Don't let the thought of writing intimidate you. You don't have to be a novelist to move people. Everyone has a story to tell and that's your job as a eulogist. Tell people your story.
In the book "A Labor of Love: How to Write a Eulogy," author Garry Schaeffer says a eulogy should convey the feelings and experiences of the person giving the eulogy, and should be written in an informal, conversational tone. Schaeffer dispels the misconceptions that a eulogy should objectively summarize the person's life or speak for all present. Sit down and write from the heart.
Eulogists often write about the person's attributes, memories and common times that were shared together. Sometimes they include the deceased's favorite poems, book passages, scripture verses, quotes, expressions, lines from songs or items that were written by the deceased. Whatever is selected, it generally reflects the loved one's lifestyle.
These questions should get you thinking:
How did you and the deceased become close?
Is there a humorous or touching event that represents the essence of your passed loved one?
What did you and others love and admire about the deceased?
What will you miss most about him or her?
Some of the simplest thoughts are deeply touching and easy for those congregated to identify with. For example, "I'll miss her smile," or "I'll never forget the way he crinkled his nose when he laughed," are just as good as "I admired her selflessness."
"I can't speak in front of people."
It may not be easy, but you can do it. A funeral is one time you'll surely have a kind and empathetic audience. They feel for you and are on your side. You'll only have to speak for five to ten minutes, but your gift will live in the hearts of the deceased's family and friends.
If you're worried about choking up or breaking down in the middle of your eulogy, you can take a moment to compose yourself, then carry on, as Schaeffer recommends, or you can have a back up person ready to step in. Give a copy of your eulogy to the minister or funeral director so that person can finish the eulogy if you're unable to continue.
Tips
Be honest and focus on the person's positive qualities
Humor is acceptable if it fits the personality of the deceased.
"If you are inclined to be a perfectionist, lower your expectations and just do what you can given the short time-frame and your emotional state," writes Schaeffer in "Labor of Love."
Keep it brief. Five to ten minutes is the norm, but it's a good idea to verify that with the minister or funeral director.
Leo Saguin recommends interviewing family and friends in his book "How to Write and Deliver a Loving Eulogy."
Put the eulogy on paper - at least in outline form.
Eulogy or Sharing Time?
If you're planning the funeral, you might want to consider "sharing time" as an alternative to a eulogy. In sharing time, the people congregated pass a microphone or take turns standing up to share their thoughts. It's like a lot of mini eulogies and is more spontaneous.
