There were two chapters of my book Hidden History: An Expose of Modern Crimes, Conspiracies, and Cover-Ups in American Politics, which Skyhorse Publishing ultimately chose not to include in the published version. I am going to offer them here for interested readers. The first is about Eugenics, and the next one, which I will publish here next month, will concern Alternative Energy. The Eugenics Movement The real enemy then, is humanity itself. – The Club of Rome Perhaps the most frightening aspect about those who have misruled us for a very, very long time is their enthusiasm for eugenics. Eugenics is typically considered to be a responsible philosophy, and is associated with the innocuous sounding idea of “population control.” The powerful forces that have supported it for decades, however, seem to have a darker purpose in mind. Over a century ago, Supreme Court Justice Oliver Wendell Holmes upheld the odious sterilization laws that were passed in 16 American states between 1907 and 1917, for the alleged purpose of eliminating mental retardation. Holmes declared, in his opinion, that “Three generations of imbeciles are enough.” (The Bell Curve by Richard J. Herrnstein & Charles Murray, p. 5). Much longer ago than that, the noted “open-minded” intellectual Voltaire, espoused the view that “the lower classes should be guided, not educated.” (Ibid, p. 145). The most brutal, cold-blooded sentiments, however, come from left-wing heroine Margaret Sanger, the founder of Planned Parenthood. Ms. Sanger stated, in a letter to associate Clarence Gamble dated October 19, 1939, “We do not want word to get out that we want to exterminate the Negro population.” (The End of Racism by Dinesh D’Souza, p. 118). There are photos in existence of Sanger addressing Ku Klux Klan rallies. Sanger also stated, in her American Baby Code, “The most merciful thing that a family does to one of its infant members is to kill it.” Sanger was the lover of fellow eugenicist writer H.G. Wells. She received funding from the Rockefellers and other wealthy patrons. Considering that Planned Parenthood is practically worshiped by women’s advocacy groups, one wonders if they are aware of these monstrously offensive comments. In August, 1988, Prince Philip, husband of England’s Queen Elizabeth, made the following ghastly statement: “In the event that I am reincarnated, I would like to return as a deadly virus, in order to contribute something to solve overpopulation.” This was obviously a serious fantasy of Philip’s, as he had mentioned it earlier, in the foreword to the 1986 book If I Were an Animal, where he declared, “I must confess that I am tempted to ask for reincarnation as a particularly deadly virus.” Philip stated his opinion that, “…some animals have to be killed in the interest of maintaining the health and vitality of the species as a whole…” Given his other comments, one can easily surmise what species of “animals” he had in mind. President Nixon issued a 57 page “Special Message on Population” to the U.S. Congress in May 1969, in which he stressed the familiar themes of population “control,” especially in the “developing nations.” Nixon also pledged U.S. cooperation with United Nations efforts in “responding to world population growth.” The President specifically expressed his appreciation to “…the recent report of the Panel of the United Nations Association, chaired by John D. Rockefeller III.” Nixon closed by proposing the establishment of a Commission on Population Growth and the American Future. Then Congressman George H.W. Bush was heavily involved with this issue, declaring in a July 21, 1969 speech from the House floor, “…the fantastic rate of population growth …continues with no letup in sight. If this growth rate is not checked-in this next decade-we face a danger that is as defenseless as nuclear war.” The United States government began to address this subject in earnest with National Security Study Memorandum 200, on December 10, 1974. The study reported that it was alarmed by “the rapid reduction in death rates, unmatched by corresponding birth rate reductions.” Of particular concern was the fact that the population in “poor” countries was growing much faster than it was in “rich” countries. This memo, like Nixon’s message, focused most of its attention on the birth rate side of the equation, stressing the promotion of birth control and education in lesser developed countries. This idea of “population control” is a persistent theme for the rich and powerful. Former Soviet leader Mikhail Gorbachev once said, “Cut the population by 90 percent and there aren’t enough people left to do a great deal of ecological damage.” Famed explorer Jacques Cousteau told UNESCO in 1991: “In order to save the planet it would be necessary to kill 350,000 people per day.” Well respected leftist Bertrand Russell was shockingly outspoken about this subject. In The Impact of Science on Society, written in 1953, he stated, “I do not pretend that birth control is the only way in which population can be kept from increasing… War… has hitherto been disappointing in this respect, but perhaps bacteriological war may prove more effective. If a Black Death could be spread throughout the world once in every generation survivors could procreate freely without making the world too full… The state of affairs might be somewhat unpleasant, but what of that?” Russell, like Margaret Sanger, is a “leftist” hero, and happened to be one of the first public figures to question the lone assassin theory in the JFK assassination. The goal here is obvious; to kill large numbers of human beings. Henry Kissinger admitted, in 1978, “U.S. policy toward the third world should be one of depopulation.” Aldous Huxley spoke glowingly of “death control,” and his brother Julian Huxley, stated, “…it will be important for UNESCO to see that the eugenic problem is examined with the greatest care, and that the public mind is informed of the issues at stake so that much that now is unthinkable may at least become thinkable.” Theodore Roosevelt wished that “the wrong people could be prevented entirely from breeding….The emphasis should be laid on getting desirable people to breed.” Media mogul Ted Turner once said, “A total population of 250-300 million people, a 95 percent decline from present levels, would be ideal.” This echoed the conclusion reached by the Presidential Council on Sustainable Development, at the Earth Summit in Rio de Janeiro in 1996; that the earth’s population should not exceed five hundred million people, or a decrease of some 93 percent! The eighteenth century President of the Royal Society of Science, Sir Thomas Malthus, actually advocated for a return of the black plague! The United Nations, Global Biodiversity Assessment echoed this familiar refrain; declaring that “a reasonable estimate” would be a world population of a billion people, while “the more frugal European standard of living” might permit two or three billion. At an earlier United Nations Conference on Environment and Development in 1992, also held in Rio de Janeiro, the notorious Agenda 21 action plan was formulated. The plan called for implementation at international, national, regional and local levels. The concept of “sustainable development,” or the integration of economic, social and environmental policies in order to achieve less consumption and the preservation of biodiversity, lies at the heart of Agenda 21. More than 178 nations signed on to Agenda 21 at the Earth Summit in 1992, including President George H.W. Bush for the United States. In the words of the planners of Agenda 21, it “…will require a profound reorientation of all humans, unlike anything the world has ever experienced.” All of this should sound familiar by now; simply more demands for austerity measures and “sacrifice,” and more eugenics philosophy. Have we ever heard any politicians over the past hundred years speak of blessings to be bestowed upon the people, or of “good times” creating beneficial results for average citizens? Americans haven’t had a politician focus on those issues, since the legendary populist Huey Long. Long, who was predictably assassinated in 1935, left numerous speeches that are still available in the Congressional Record, in which he accused the administration of Franklin D. Roosevelt of plotting to kill him. Back in 1977, future Obama science advisor John P. Holdgren and population “bomb” scaremonger Paul Ehrlich (who once notably said, “Giving society cheap, abundant energy would be the equivalent of giving an idiot child a machine gun”) broached the subject of adding sterilants to the water supply, forced abortions and an Orwellian “Planetary Regime” to run everything, in the textbook Ecoscience. Planned Parenthood’s Vice President, Frederick Jaffe, would echo these sentiments, in a 1969 memo to the Population Council, one of many Rockefeller funded groups. The memo also suggested encouraging homosexuality as another way of decreasing the population. Microsoft plutocrat Bill Gates made the following controversial remarks, before the TED2010 conference, “First we got population. The world today has 6.8 billion people. That’s headed up to about 9 billion. Now if we do a really great job on new vaccines, health care, reproductive health services, we lower that by perhaps 10 or 15 percent.” We can only ponder what kind of “vaccines” and “health care” would reduce the number of human beings so dramatically. In April, 2012, the mainstream media in India (but not the U.S., of course) reported some devastating effects from Gates’ beloved vaccines; there were apparently 47,500 new cases of paralysis in India following an increase in the administration of the oral polio vaccine there. Eugenics was praised by renowned economist John Maynard Keynes. Beloved Christian author C.S. Lewis once wrote, “If we cut up beasts…it is only logical to cut up imbeciles, criminals, enemies or capitalists for the same reason.” In a slightly different vein, but still indicative of a poisonous, immoral mindset, Harry Truman was quoted in The New York Times, June 24, 1941, as saying “If we see that Germany is winning, we ought to help Russia, and if Russia is winning we ought to help Germany, and that way we let them kill as many as possible.” We find this same theme in the writings of H.G. Wells, who was also a big promoter of world government. Like so many other renowned figures, he was concerned about getting the “better” stock to breed more, and stopping the “bad” stock from breeding. Another prominent nineteenth century figure, inventor Alexander Graham Bell, became the first director of the Eugenics Record Office. Charles Darwin’s evolutionary credo of “survival of the fittest” seemed to influence many of our leaders, and his own writings indicate he was receptive to basic eugenics theory. Darwin described how the maimed and the poor receive aid, and “our medical men exert their utmost skill to save the life of everyone to the last moment,” with the clear inference that this was not a good thing. While he was not as directly appalled by such civilized gestures as Margaret Sanger, who was outraged by the very concept of charity, the message was the same. Darwin’s cousin, Francis Galton, is given credit for inventing the term eugenics. Galton actively promoted the interbreeding of those with “good” stock, and even suggested that there be economic incentives to do so. At its heart, of course, eugenics is nothing more than socially applied Darwinism; the promotion of the “fittest.” Even Barrack Obama was moved to use the disparaging term “Social Darwinism” against the Republicans for their overly draconian social and economic proposals. I’d always had a favorable opinion of George Bernard Shaw, until I found some of his quotes regarding this topic. In On the Rocks, Shaw spoke out in favor of extermination. In a 1910 lecture to the Eugenics Education Society, Shaw said, “A great many people would have to be put out of existence simply because it wastes other people’s time to look after them.” In Prefaces, we find even more chilling thoughts from Shaw, “If they are not fit to live, kill them in a decent way.” This demented line of thinking has continued unabated for several decades, resulting in recent quotes like this one, from John Davis, editor of Earth First Journal; “I suspect that eradicating small pox was wrong. It played an important part in balancing ecosystems.” His Earth First colleague Christopher Manes went him one better, boldly stating, “The extinction of the human species may not only be inevitable but a good thing.” England’s University College Emeritus Professor John Guillebaud, avid supporter of the UK group “Population Matters,” made headlines (at least on conspiracy web sites) in April, 2012. The good Professor was seen in a video standing before a screen that depicted examples of what he termed “natural” population control, such as a machine gun, a hospital bed and a knife dripping with blood. In June of 2010, another distinguished Professor, Cambridge’s Nicholas Boyle, cautioned that only a “global governance run by an enlightened elite” could save mankind from an impending doomsday type of cataclysmic event. Such allusions to “doomsday” scenarios are another favorite obsession of those who misrule us; witness all the movies with this central theme in recent years, and the widespread publicity for the ludicrous “prediction” from the Mayans that the world will end on December 21, 2012. In April, 2012, the mainstream media widely disseminated the results of a study by MIT and the Club of Rome. The team of scientists predicted a dire immediate future for the world; because of humans’ “incessant need to consume resources like oil, food and fresh water,” they foresee an economic collapse and global devastation like none in recorded history. In response to this, Smithsonian magazine solemnly informed us, “…the world is on track for disaster.” If you look at the charts from the study, freely available online, it seems like they are expecting hundreds of millions of people to die. Talk show host Alex Jones thinks the figures show something like a 90 percent reduction in the earth’s population. Remember, the people who belong to the Club of Rome come from the upper echelons of the business and government worlds; they aren’t video gamers smoking pot and dreaming up creative scenarios. In May, 2009, The London Times reported that some of the “richest people in the world met in New York to discuss their favorite causes.” The group included Bill Gates, David Rockefeller, Ted Turner, Oprah Winfrey, Warren Buffett, George Soros and Michael Bloomberg. They evidently came to a consensus that they should spend their money on efforts to reduce the world’s population. As the Times informed us, “The meeting took place at the home of Sir Paul Nurse, a British Nobel Prize winning biochemist, and president of Rockefeller University,” and that Gates had organized the gathering. In February of 2009, Gates had unveiled a diabolical project to reduce the world’s population by one billion, which would eliminate one out of every nine persons on the planet. This kind of stuff has always been on Gates’ mind; in a 2003 interview with former LBJ aide turned journalist Bill Moyers, Gates said, “Well if you improve health, aren’t you just dooming people to deal with such a lack of resources where they won’t be educated or they won’t have enough food? You know, sort of a Malthusian view of what would take place.” Clearly, Gates was quite familiar with Thomas Malthus, who was one of the first notables to speculate about the necessity of all those “useless eaters” taking up valuable resources. Gates also grew up in an environment conducive to this line of thought, as his father was once head of Planned Parenthood. And you probably thought Gates was just responsible for running a monopoly that creates inferior, overpriced products and despises the concept of open source or freeware. Gates’ delusion on this subject was best expressed in his comment that open source meant “nobody can ever improve the software.” Of course, in reality, open source does exactly the opposite, making it eminently possible for users to improve the software. The stark, terrifying nature of the eugenicist mindset was probably best expressed by Zbigniew Brzezinski, in a November 17, 2008 speech to Chatham House, which is the British version of the Council on Foreign Relations. “In early times,” Brzezinski declared, “it was easier to control a million people, literally it was easier to control a million people than physically to kill a million people. Today, it is infinitely easier to kill a million people than to control a million people. It is easier to kill than to control…” Again, what innocent explanation is there for this recurrent theme? Why do our leaders continually talk about eliminating large numbers of human beings? Jack Kevorkian Jack “Dr. Death” Kevorkian, the retired pathologist with an obsession for “assisting” suicides, had an agenda that must have pleased eugenicists. Euthanasia, after all, is born out of the same twisted philosophy; to end the “misery” of those who don’t have “quality of life.” The Detroit Free Press would estimate that 60 percent of the patients Kevorkian “helped” were not terminally ill, and at least 13 of them had never complained about pain. Kevorkian would have been drummed out of any rational medical industry, but in modern day America, he was the beneficiary of some very positive press. Hollywood would lend its support with the favorable biopic You Don’t Know Jack, with Al Pacino starring as Kevorkian. Kevorkian was a demented individual. As a medical student, he wore a black arm band and requested to work the night shift, because more patients died then. He tried to photograph patients’ eyes at the moment of death. He was given the nickname “Dr. Death” by his co-workers, and jovially referred to making his “death rounds.” (Los Angeles Times, September 17, 1996).His paintings alone reveal a deeply disturbed man. One of them depicted Santa Claus crushing a baby lying in a fire place. Another, blasphemously titled “Give Us This Day,” featured a baby eating the flesh from a decomposing corpse. He often painted with his own blood. At Pontiac General Hospital, he experimented with transfusing blood from corpses into live humans. He also advocated using death row inmates for medical experimentation. In a typical Kevorkian case, on July 9, 1996, he gave 39 year old Rebecca Badger a lethal injection, ending years of what was called “excruciating” pain from Multiple Sclerosis. Badger was the 33rd person Kevorkian had “assisted” in this way since 1990. The doctor who conducted the autopsy on Badger, county medical examiner L.J. Dragovic, created quite a bit of controversy when he stated in an interview: “She doesn’t have any evidence of medical disease. I can show you every slice from her brain and spinal cord, and she doesn’t have a bit of MS. She looked robust, fairly healthy. Everything else is in order. Except she’s dead.” Kevorkian had, in reality, “assisted” a woman with a history of psychiatric problems who was plagued by severe pelvic pain, which doctors could not attribute to any physical cause. Johanna Meyer-Mitchell, a California family practitioner who treated Badger for almost 11 years, was startled over her assisted suicide. “There never was any objective evidence as to why she was in as much pain as she said she was in…If I had known this is what she was planning or thinking of, I would have tried to intervene to get her psychiatric help.” Kevorkian’s lawyer Geoffrey Fieger released some of Badger’s medical records in an effort to substantiate his charges that the autopsy results were false. The records he released, however, which consisted of case summaries by her two primary physicians and interviews with other experts, were hardly irrefutable proof she had MS. She seemed to be a typical case where doctors provided a diagnosis of “possible MS” because nothing else explained the patient’s symptoms. Meyer-Mitchell diagnosed Badger as suffering from depression and she also revealed that Badger had been sexually abused as a child and had “a history of chemical dependency and alcoholism.” Even the doctor who diagnosed Badger with possible MS in 1988, Michael Stein, was shocked to hear she’d been a “beneficiary” of Dr. Kevorkian’s work. “The next thing I hear (on the radio eight days later) is that she’s an assisted suicide.” Stein said. “I said, ‘What?’…I presumed they would talk her out of it. I was dead wrong.” Attorney Fieger, known for his aggressive style, lambasted longtime foe, medical examiner Dragovic. “Dr. Dragovic is a liar. I will put up a million dollars that Rebecca Badger had severe and crippling MS.” “Could he double the stakes?” An amused Dragovic replied. “She did not have MS, and that’s the end of it.” Two independent experts contacted by the Post agreed with Dragovic’s findings. “It’s inconceivable to me that the autopsy wouldn’t pick it up. I would be very skeptical as to whether this woman had MS,” stated Aaron Miller of New York, chairman of the professional education committee for the National Multiple Sclerosis Society. (The Washington Post, July 29, 1996, p. A1 & A12). The subtle messages emanating from the media over the years about “quality of life” and responsible persons not wanting to be a “burden” or even a “vegetable” had clearly hit home with much of the American public by the 1990s. The Christian View of the News published the results of a survey taken from intensive care nurses, which revealed that one in five admitted to having performed euthanasia, assisting suicide or withholding life-sustaining treatment. Another 40 percent claimed they wanted to “help” patients in this way, but hadn’t for fear of being caught. An incredible 58 out of 852 nurses surveyed admitted to taking the life of a patient who had never requested them to. Between 1994 and 1997, Jack Kevorkian was tried four times for assisting suicides, but he was acquitted three times and the fourth ended in a mistrial. The public was so supportive of this despicable, sick man that Richard Thompson lost a primary challenge largely because he’d prosecuted him. Eventually, Kevorkian was convicted and sent to prison, but an astonishing number of people continue to consider this genuine serial killer to be some kind of hero. In 2000 Kevorkian was given the prestigious Gleitsman Foundation Citizen Activists Award, awarded to those “who have challenged social injustice in the United States.” Among the panel of judges who honored this unacknowledged serial killer were actor Ted Danson, Children’s advocate Marian Wright Edelman, Mothers Against Drunk Driving founder Candace Lightner, feminist (and onetime CIA asset) Gloria Steinem and Southern Poverty Law Center (an organization that pressures the mainstream media into censoring any criticism of Israel by using the “anti-semitic” sledgehammer) honcho Morris Dees, Jr. Among Kevorkian’s self-proclaimed 130 victims were an overweight diabetic, several cases of people with the decidedly non-terminal multiple sclerosis, and others who were simply depressed, had mental problems or suffered from the likes of chronic fatigue syndrome. Like all serial killers, Kevorkian loved his work; he never charged for his “services.” The notoriety and positive public image of someone like Jack Kevorkian is clear proof that conspirators run the United States of America now. In a sane society, someone as obviously disturbed as “Dr. Death” would have been sent somewhere to get the help he so desperately needed. In March, 2012, a group of Oxford University professors published a paper titled After Birth Abortion: Why Should the Baby Live? These professors were labeled “experts” in medical ethics. Ethics. Think about this; it is apparently now “ethical,” to the elites who misrule us, for human infants to be murdered after birth. These professors argued that babies don’t possess “a moral right to life.” Their odious research was actually published in The Journal of Medical Ethics. They were merely echoing the sentiments of Dr. Peter Singer, of Princeton University, who has for years advocated that the killing of a human baby ought to be permitted, up to the point where the child develops the ability to communicate and “anticipate the future.” (The Christian Post, March 7, 2012). While “politically incorrect” speakers and teachers are routinely banned and dismissed from American universities, here we have a professor advocating the most heinous kind of proposal, yet he is allowed to maintain his position at one of the most prestigious colleges in the country. Author G.K. Chesterton understood this issue better than most. In his Eugenics and Other Evils: An Argument Against the Scientifically Organized State, Chesterton wrote: “The thing that really is trying to tyrannize through government is Science…And the creed that really is levying tithes and capturing schools, the creed that really is enforced by fine and imprisonment, the creed that really is proclaimed not in sermons but in statues, and spread not by pilgrims but by policemen—that creed is the great but disputed system of thought which began with Evolution and has ended in Eugenics. Materialism is really our established Church; for the government will really help it to persecute its heretics…I am not frightened of the word ‘persecution’…It is a term of legal fact. If it means the imposition by the police of a widely disputed theory, incapable of final proof—then our priests are not now persecuting, but our doctors are.” Exactly what kind of leaders do we have? What responsible adults speak so continuously about eradicating huge numbers of people? The concept of gradualism is quite apparent here; there’s a logical progression from nursing homes to abortion to “pulling the plug” to euthanasia to full fledged eugenics. Noble sounding concerns for “population control” are inexorably tied to barbaric notions of sterilizing humans and “reducing” population by “any means necessary.” There is a strong desire among many of these supposedly “liberal” minds to encourage the “proper” people to breed, and to put an end to “undesirable” genes procreating. Darwinian philosophy can evolve (pun intended) into dire, science fiction scenarios where the aged, infirmed and disabled are eliminated because they are “useless.” Much of the public has been dumbed down enough to accept such murderous concepts as compassionate. A good portion of the environmental movement is linked to eugenics thought, whereby the decent ideals of preserving natural resources and keeping the air and water clean become melded to a general globalist agenda of “carbon taxes” and decreased population. When a career establishment hack like Al Gore is considered the leader of a movement, you can be certain it’s not a good one.

For the first six years of my life, I attended Method Child Development Center in Raleigh for three days a week while my mother worked across the street at N.C. State. The preschool was hosted by Pullen Memorial Baptist Church, a diverse congregation whose progressive politics won exclusion from the Southern Baptist Convention and approval from my liberal parents. Growing up in this heterogeneous population, I observed racial differences with great curiosity and little understanding. I gradually learned the vocabulary to describe my peers: Black, Hispanic, Asian. Noticeably absent from my taxonomy was “white.” I knew that I was white, but I understood whiteness to be simply the absence of racial identity. In hindsight, this understanding seems in part the natural consequence of my weekly routine. Although I spent Monday through Wednesday at the preschool, I went home to a white household in a white neighborhood and played with white friends from my white church. Rather than living a truly integrated life, I received only a regular dose of diversity in a specific context. Therefore, in my mind, whiteness was not a category like blackness—it was default existence. I understood race not as a difference between me and my Black and Hispanic friends, but as a difference that belonged to them. Because my parents were proactive about moral education, I knew this difference was supposed to be unimportant. I took pride in the knowledge, as a child might be proud to know his home telephone number. When my mom read me a children’s book about Martin Luther King Jr. called Martin’s Big Words, I memorized the information to show off for the preschool teachers the next day. I remember thinking that because they were black, they would probably be very impressed that I knew so much of their history. Once again, absent from my thought process was any conception of my own whiteness. When learning about civil rights through my parents’ teachings, I identified with the Black heroes, not the white adversaries. I thought of them like Titans, warriors for justice in an ancient battle that was disconnected from the present—a battle whose glory I could celebrate but in which I would never have to fight. My entry into public school resulted in a degree of disillusionment. Because my birthday was past the cut-off date, I stayed in preschool an extra year and entered Kindergarten at almost 6 years old. The delay turned out to be a blessing, as I met Devin, a lanky boy who would become my best friend that year. Devin was Black. We played soccer together, got into mischief together, and learned together. We were inseparable—until the school separated us. At the end of Kindergarten, the school decided that three students in our class would be held back. Devin was one of them, and all three were black. I remember trying to console Devin by sharing that I had been forced to stay an extra year in preschool. “It’s not like that,” I recall him saying. “You wouldn’t understand.” I did not understand, but I was starting to recognize that somehow, education and race were deeply related. A few years later, my elementary school controversially lost its magnet status. Over the next few years, many white students migrated away from the school, which is nestled within the historically black neighborhood in my hometown. Many of my white friends’ parents pushed for them to attend newly developed middle schools in affluent subdivisions. Although my family chose for me to attend a more diverse middle and high school downtown, the scramble following the re-segregation of my elementary school showed me for the first time that I was, in fact, white. By creating conditions that made us choose between better-resourced but less diverse schools and less-resourced but more diverse schools, the school system baited us to embrace our whiteness. I no longer saw whiteness as a passive absence, but as a force that had visible implications. At the same time the school system was producing visibly disparate outcomes, it was incentivizing families to deepen the disparity. It’s common to hear that race is “learned.” I don’t think I was taught that I was white—but maybe it was schooled into me.

Learning more about the people in a region can help agencies better determine how to mitigate risks to (and better serve) local communities. What’s the Problem? Communities are vulnerable. While transportation can benefit local communities—facilitating evacuations during disasters, for example—it can also present hazards. To understand the impact of transportation on a local population requires first understanding the population itself. How can that information be gathered effectively and used to benefit people? What’s the Solution? Knowing more about a local population can help engineers, planners, and policymakers minimize potential threats and better serve a community’s needs. Social (e.g., age, race), economic (e.g., poverty rate, employment profiles), and health (e.g., disabilities, mortality rate) information can yield insights into how to minimize localized social vulnerability (generally defined here to mean a population’s risk of being adversely affected by environmental circumstances). Local agencies can better understand and address social vulnerability—a population’s risk of being adversely affected by environmental circumstances—by leveraging readily available social, economic, and health data about their communities. How Was the Study Done? The goals of this project were identifying where data about social, economic, and health vulnerability can obtained from, how agencies in El Paso are currently using these data, and making recommendations for both. Researchers with the Texas A&M Transportation Institute’s (TTI’s) Center for International Intelligent Transportation Research (CIITR) queried local/state agencies and other organizations in El Paso regarding their use of social, economic, and health data. For example, they determined how socio-economic data was assessed when the El Paso Metropolitan Planning Organization developed its Amended 2035 Metropolitan Transportation Plan. The team then cataloged federal, local/university, and private data resources to create an excellent primer for stakeholders to use when planning. They then pointed out limitations with currently available data sources, detailing such issues as delay in information reporting. The researchers found other examples of how agencies use the data in The City of El Paso’s Comprehensive Master Plan and El Paso Fire Department’s Community Risk Analysis and Standards of Cover assessment. Research Recommendations Suggestions for stakeholders to consider when determining how to effectively use population data in their planning processes include: Train personnel on data sources and availability and ensure resources are available to integrate data into community planning. Improve communication with national/state agencies that might already have invented the data-collection wheel regarding a given topic. Leverage existing expertise by using a third party (e.g., research institute, private company, or non-profit organization) to access the data needed. Establish relationships with Census Data Research Centers to access micro-level data not otherwise easily accessible. Identify specific information particularly relevant to stakeholders and use appropriate statistical techniques to achieve more thorough analyses across variables. Use social, economic, and health variables to enhance assessment and analysis aspects of planning studies for transportation, health, and emergency management.

The Ministry’s food aid program aims to help high schools from underprivileged communities provide subsidized meals and snacks. Although the total budget of $7.7 million remains unchanged, many schools, particularly in outer regions, have seen their allowance plummet or disappear. The Samares School Board in Lanaudière, for example, went from receiving $190 226 to $7081 in two school years. In the Eastern Quebec, the Chic-Chocs School Board went from $33 090 this year to $5 269 for next year. Chic-Chocs representative Marie-Noëlle Dion called the situation deplorable, particularly for three of their schools that will have to do without food aid all together. The both the entire Outaouais and Laurentides region are now devoid of high schools providing subsidized meals. The matter was the subject of a heated debate on Wednesday in the National Assembly where Education Minister Sébastien Proulx tried to defend the government’s policies. “The money for the food aid program was maintained and indexed,” hammered Proulx, “it is meant for our most underprivileged schools, and that has not changed. If the rules have changed in the last few years, it was to correct inequalities in the sense that in some communities there were privileged schools receiving food aid.” To which the official spokesperson for education of the opposition Alexandre Cloutier replied: “For the entire region of Outaouais, as of next September, there is zero funding! Are you saying there is not one kid who goes to school on an empty stomach in Outaouais?” André Villeneuve, MNA of Berthier, piled on: “In Lanaudière, it’s four high schools, it’s hundreds of kids who will go to school on en empty stomach!” Where is the money going? The Ministry determines the amount of food aid it will give to each school depending on where it ranks on the government’s indexes of deprivation. Those indexes reflect the proportion of students from families who are below the low-income threshold as well as their socio-economic background, which takes into account the level of education of the mother and whether or not the parents are employed. Minister Proulx said that the calculations have been adjusted to focus on the schools that score 9 or 10 out of 10 on these indexes. At the time of publication, FTB is waiting for specifications from the Ministry about the nature of these adjustments and the number of schools that supposedly benefited from them. Most of the schools scoring 9s and 10s are presumably in Montreal, where child poverty is particularly glaring. A recent study by Tonino Esposito of Université de Montréal and Catherine Roy of McGill found that sixteen of the 30 neighborhoods with the most underprivileged children in the province are in Montreal. Montréal-Nord is at the very top of the chart. In any case, many children who were only a year ago considered underprivileged enough to get access to food aid are now considered as fortunate enough to do without it. Professionals and politicians are accusing the government of robbing Peter to pay Paul in education, while they break the bank for lobbies and corporations. Or, As Cloutier put it : “How can a Minister who is swimming in budgetary surplus justify this sort of measure?” * Featured image: École secondaire de L’Île, Outaouais. From HockeyAcademy By Mirna Djukic Jun 1, 2017 0 HealthNewsPolitics Quebec (Finally) Releases $12 Million for Supervised Injection Sites in Montreal After years of pleading, debating and waiting, the Quebec Ministry of Health officially released the funds to open three supervised injection sites (SIS), as well as one mobile unit in Montreal. Two such sites are already in function in Vancouver, but it will be a first for Quebec. Quebec will release $12 million over three years to three community centres in Montreal: Spectre de rue, CACTUS and Dopamine. One part of the money will help the centres prepare the locations and fulfill all the requirements to be granted an exemption from the law on drugs by the federal government. The other part will be used for the launching and running of the sites’ operations. One mobile unit will also be providing services in a few boroughs. No official date is set for the opening of the facilities, but Le Devoir mentioned that it could be as soon as March 2017. The project is far from new. In fact, six years have already passed since the Director of Public Health started pushing for the opening of SIS in Montreal. In June 2015, Mayor Coderre had announced his plan to go forward with the facilities, with or without Ottawa’s approval. At the time, the provincial government decided to lend a hand. According to Lucie Charlebois, Quebec’s Minister of Health and Healthy Living, “we are now at the final step” of the process. She told Radio-Canada that the work on installations and the hiring of medical staff was already on track. “That means we’re advancing quickly.” She commented that she discussed the matter with her federal counterpart, Jane Philpott: “she is very receptive towards it, but we have to fit certain criteria, that is clear.” Charlebois stated that she believes that getting the federal approval will be a formality. Sandhia Vadlamudy, the director of CACTUS, told FTB by phone that this formality requires a lot of paperwork, but no problematic modifications. Last year, CACTUS distributed 610 000 clean syringes in an effort to prevent transmission of infection, which is around 65% of distributed materials on the island, including those distributed in CLSCs and drugstores. With their supervised injection site finally going forward, they will be able to “add one more tool to prevent infections and overdoses.” Some have argued that the government would do better to focus on treating drug addiction or even on cracking down on drug crime instead of improving the conditions of drug use. Vadlamudy doesn’t think that promoting abstinence and prohibition is sufficient. “This approach is more based on pragmatism; which is to say drugs exist and people take them.” She argued that SIS are beneficial for more than just drug users, highlighting that, within four years of operation, SIS start saving money for the healthcare system by preventing overdoses and health deterioration in users. It will also help reduce the number of intoxicated people and of used needles left on the streets “and thus improve the quality of life of everyone in the community.” Slowly breaking the taboo According to the Director of Public Health, there are 4000 regular users of injectable drugs in Montreal. People who use injectable drugs are 59 times more like to be infected with HIV. An average of 70 people die of drug overdoses every year in Montreal. In the eyes of many, SIS remain a marginal, controversial option for desperate cases, when they are not a silly progressive scheme. But their growing popularity around the world and the expanding stack of evidence in their favour are now hard to ignore. The first North American facility, Insite, opened in Vancouver 13 years ago. In 2008, federal health minister Tony Clement called it “a failure of public policy, indeed of ethical judgment.” Just last spring, Toronto’s Police Association expressed firm opposition to the idea of opening SIS in their city. “Insite is not a model we want to see replicated,” association president Mike McCormack said, fearing that SIS would attract crime and loitering and thinks that government money would be better spent on treatment options. Insite handles 600 injections daily. Not one person has died of an overdose within its walls. According to the B.C. Centre for Excellence in HIV/AIDS, there was a 35% decrease in overdose deaths in the area of forty blocks around the site. BC’s HIV and Hepatitis C infection rate went from the highest of the country to one of the lowest. More than thirty peer-reviewed papers were published about Insite’s beneficial impact. Supervised rooms for drug consumption started popping up as a response to AIDS epidemics and the spike in overdoses in the eighties and nineties. There are now about 90 of them around the world. The European Monitoring Centre for Drugs and Drug Addiction recently published a study in which they found overall that those sites increased safe and hygienic drug use and reduced risky behaviours. They also found that, contrary to Toronto’s Police Association’s concerns, there was no evidence that those sites increased drug related crime and violence in their vicinity. *Featured image by Todd Huffman, WikiMedia Commons By Mirna Djukic Sep 29, 2016 0 News Charlotte Under State of Emergency After Two Days of Unrest Forty-four hours after the police shot and killed another person of colour, Charlotte (North Carolina) is under a state of emergency. One man is on life support and the mayor is raising the possibility of imposing a curfew amidst calls for peace and demands fo r answers. It all started Tuesday with a despairingly familiar scenario: a police officer fatally shot a 43 year old black man named Keith Lamont Scott for questionable reasons. Police claim that the man had a handgun that he was refusing to drop. Eyewitnesses claim that Scott was only holding a book and that he tried to get out of his truck with his hands up. Tuesday: Shooting and Mass Protests One thing is undisputed: it ended with Keith Lamont Scott being shot four times at 3:54 PM. The shots were fired by Brentley Vinson, a black officer of the Charlotte-Mecklenburg Police. Family and eyewitnesses soon took to social media to spread their version of the events. Three hours later, people were already taking to the streets and demanding justice. Three hours and 45 minutes after the shooting, police stated that the protest was turning violent, and that one officer was injured while trying to de-escalate a situation. The Mayor of Charlotte, Jennifer Roberts, issued a first statement urging the community to stay calm. A few minutes later, she issued another one to announce a full investigation into the shooting of Keith Lamont Scott, saying that the community deserves answers. Around 11 PM, police ordered the crowd to disperse and deployed tear gas. Clashes with police continued throughout the night. A group of protesters shut down Interstate 85. Different sources report rocks thrown at police cars, two trucks looted, and two fires started. However, even the Mayor said that the mass protest, in a park, was peaceful. The rioting and looting that happened near the interstate and downtown was the doing of a small group of agitators. Wednesday Morning: A Gun or a Book? On Wednesday morning, CMPD Chief Kerr Putney held a press conference to share the police’s conclusion. Officers approached Scott while they were trying to execute an arrest warrant for someone else. Putney said that Scott exited his vehicule, then got back into it before coming out with a gun in his hand and ignored orders to drop it as he advanced towards police officers. “The officers gave loud, clear verbal commands that were also heard by many of the witnesses […] to drop the weapon,” claimed Putney. “Despite the verbal commands, Mr. Scott exited the vehicle as the officers continued to yell at him to drop it. He stepped out, posing a threat to the officers, and Officer Brentley Vinson subsequently fired his weapon, striking the subject.” The CMPD (Charlotte-Mecklenburg Police Department) recovered a gun at the scene and insists there was no book. Later in the day, a photo of the crime scene where a gun can be seen reached the media. The source of the photo is unclear, but the initial tweet of a local reporter says it’s from CMPD. The family of the victim is convinced that this is not how it happened. They say Keith Lamont Scott was a disabled father of seven children, well-known and liked in his community. They believe he “wouldn’t have it in him to hurt a policeman.” According to them, he was sitting in his truck and reading while he waited for the school bus to drop his kids off. Here's the man's sister. She says he did not have a gun. @CMPD says he did. @WBTV_News pic.twitter.com/JwHMixy9m7 — Sarah-Blake Morgan (@SarahBlakeWBTV) September 20, 2016 Witness Tahesha Williams says she saw Scott get out of the truck unarmed with his hands up. Wednesday Night: State of Emergency Peaceful protests rapidly degenerated. One man ended up on life support and the city was put under state of emergency. Around 7 PM, on Wednesday, Scott’s wife addressed the protesters, encouraging them to keep the peace: “Please do not hurt people or members of law enforcement, damage property or take things that don’t belong to you.” Two dozen people reportedly sat silently for a while in front of a Bank of America building, holding up Black Lives Matter signs. A peaceful crowd of men, women and children gathered in Marshall Park before marching through the city. You can read a detailed account of the night in Charlotte Magazine. However the atmosphere easily tipped into chaos. Tear gas and explosives joined the game before 8 PM. At 8:30 PM, someone was shot somewhere near North College and East Trade streets. The city soon tweeted that the shooting was “civilian on civilian. CMPD did not fire shot.” The victim is currently on life support. One eyewitness, Minister Steve Knight of Missiongathering Christian Church in Charlotte, shared his skepticism: “It was an ambush. The victim was shot while he stood between two ministers, and we believe he was shot by police. We would like to see surveillance video from the surrounding area that may have captured the shooting to determine who was responsible for the shooting.” Later that night, while police used rubber bullets to disperse protesters, the Governor Pat McCrory declared a State of Emergency. He dispatched the National Guard and State Highway Patrol troopers to help local law enforcement. Gov. McCrory had very harsh words for the protesters since the first night. Incidentally, he also recently passed a law to restrict viewing of police body cam and dash cam recordings. Essentially, he signed off on a bill to take police recordings off public records, effectively allowing law enforcement to keep them from media or citizens. Now Thanks to this, the dash cam footage of Scott’s death will probably never be publicly released. Chief Putney said that they would try to accommodate the family’s request to see it, but that he had no intention of releasing it “to the masses.” “Transparency’s in the eye of the beholder,” he said on Thursday. “If you think we should display a victim’s worst day for public consumption, that is not the transparency I’m speaking of.” He also warned that the recording did not definitely show Scott holding a gun. Also on Thursday, Mayor Roberts appeared on ABC news to convey three messages: the city is fine and open for business (do not panic), the majority of protesters was peaceful (we’re on your side) and the possibility of imposing a curfew will be discussed (yes, we can do that because of the State of Emergency). “A peaceful protest, and many folks do want to express their views peacefully, turned into something else last night,” said Roberts. The Department of Justice just sent four members of their Community Relations Service to Charlotte. Attorney General Loretta Lynch gave a press conference this morning, assuring that they were “monitoring the matter” and that they were looking into the circumstances of Keith Lamont Scott’s death. * Featured image: CNN screengrab By Mirna Djukic Sep 22, 2016 0 NewsPolitics Alberta Will Have a $15 Minimum Wage by 2018 Alberta officially started its path to reach a minimum salary of $15 an hour by 2018. The cabinet passed the legislation to launch the phased hike on Tuesday. This surprisingly progressive move will make Alberta the province with the highest minimum wage in the country, and by far. On October 1st, Alberta’s minimum salary will go from $11.20 to $12.20. It will rise to $13.60 in October 2017 and finally reach $15 on October 1st 2018. The government has already reduced the gap between the general minimum wage and the one for servers and bartenders (these employees are generally paid less to compensate for the tip they receive) by half. The gap will be completely eliminated next month. Premier Rachel Notley had promised to raise the minimum wage during last year’s provincial elections. She is now following through with it, despite backlash from business groups and other parties. Unsurprisingly, detractors of the hike have predicted terrible consequences for the economy. The opposition is convinced that unemployment will soar and small businesses will burn. Representatives of small businesses have launched a petition against the $15 wage. It should be noted that, despite popular beliefs, research has failed to prove a clear correlation between job losses and minimum wage hikes. Notley’s party, the Alberta NDP, have relentlessly defended the hike as a necessity. “Every Albertan should be able to afford rent, transportation and food. These increases will help insure that low wage earners can at least meet their basic needs,” said Labour Minister Christina Gray, when the plan was outlined in June. There are approximately 305 000 Albertans currently living on minimal wage. According to the government’s numbers, almost two thirds of them are women. 44% have children under eighteen and 7% are single parents. In 2015, 3.1% of Albertan workers were on minimum wage, but a much larger percentage, currently paid under $15 an hour, will be positively affected by the hike. The proportion of workers on minimum wage is twice as high in Quebec. In August, Minister of Finance Carlos Leitao made it very clear what he thought of raising the minimum wage. According to him, $10.75 is within the “advisable range” and the slight readjustment made every year for inflation is more than enough. “I don’t see why we would accelerate this process,” he declared to the Journal de Québec. He was responding to Alexandre Taillefer, a businessman who gained notoriety through the TV show Les Dragons. Taillefer had called for a $15 minimum wage during the World Social Forum. Parti Québécois and Québec Solidaire are also supporting this idea. *Featured image credited to Chris Schwartz, Government of Alberta By Mirna Djukic Sep 13, 2016 Sep 13, 2016 0 ArtsCultureMediaMusicNewsPoliticsQueer Rocking While Black: An Interview with Fredua of Bad Rabbits “Growing up, people were always telling me that I was the ‘whitest Black kid’ they knew because I loved ‘white rock music’ like Radiohead and Dead Kennedys,” says Fredua of Bad Rabbits. He laughs, and quickly responds to them: “But you can’t ‘act a colour,’ and Rock & Roll culture isn’t reserved for X race. But I will say this until my dying day: Rock & Roll was created by a Black Queer woman named Rosetta Tharpe.” Fredua is the frontman of Bad Rabbits, and I had the honour to speak with him about race, rock, and his thoughts on being a Black American in 2016. Fredua tells me that conversations of race and belonging within his scene have always been a part of his consciousness, explaining the common lamentation among young men of colour that he was never “Black enough” for the Black kids, and “too Black” for the white kids. “I considered myself a hybrid from the jump because nobody on either side liked me… The only kids who accepted me in school were the punk rock kids.” For Fredua, this embrace of the punk scene of the late 80s led to an early and profound appreciation for bands like Bad Brains, Dead Kennedys, and Public Enemy. The moment of clarity that gave Fredua a real understanding of how he could fit into the Rock scene came when he saw Fishbone and Living Colour music videos, with Black musicians like Kendall Jones and Vernon Reid “not rapping, not singing, just jamming with guitars. When people said I was the ‘whitest Black guy’… There was nothing ‘white’ about what I was doing. Period. I was doing what I saw, and that was a Black person playing this music.” When I asked Fredua about conversations of race in his current role as the frontman of a multi-ethnic band in a scene dominated by white dudes, he emphatically affirmed that there has never been racial tension at a Bad Rabbits show, as people are too busy having a good time. It’s when he stops making music for people to dance to, and starts talking about things that make him angry and upset – like the ability for police to routinely kill Black people with impunity – that tempers begin to flare. Fredua explains, “There are probably a bunch of my fans that are inherently racist, and I know this because I’ve argued with them. They’re the types that grew up thinking Black people are supposed to only be entertainers or basketball players. When they see me speaking my mind it’s suddenly ‘Fredua, you’re an entertainer, you shouldn’t be talking like that!’ People are angry at the fact that I have the nerve to talk about things going on instead of making a song for them to dance to.” In response to the recent spate of highly-publicized killings of Black people by police, Fredua posted a video to his personal Facebook page in support of the #BlackLivesMatter movement. Fredua tells me that the response from most friends and fans was positive, but one fan came out of the woodwork to leave the following comment: “I follow you because I think your old band was awesome, but let’s be honest, this militant black guy thing isn’t working out for anyone.” Fredua explains it’s no skin off his nose – people who see him not as a Black human being, but strictly an entertainer aren’t real fans anyway. The reluctance of white peers and fans to see him as anything but a stage presence has bothered Fredua since he first started singing: “I look back at school, and I mean, I did chorus for the girls. Don’t get me wrong,” he says with a laugh, “The girls loved my voice. But they didn’t love me. Because I didn’t look like them.” I asked Fredua if these reactions to his showmanship bother him when he looks back on them, and he is quick to point out that he’s one of the lucky ones. “I lived out my dream. That dream was to make music and act like a damn fool for the rest of my natural life, and I don’t have to worry about aging because I found the fountain of youth through music. I have a beautiful house and a beautiful wife and a beautiful dog and I get to do something I love all the time.” Fredua mentioned that Bad Rabbits has a new album one year in the making that will have more anger in it than previous records. He describes some of the album’s lyrical content as “two year’s worth of anger,” much of it directed toward the issues that we spoke about. The new album, American Nightmare, is planned to drop in September, but will likely end up coming sooner. When I naively asked if the early release was due to the urgency of the message, Fredua’s voice dropped to that sacred place where the spirit meets the bone: “This is the thing that kills me about this issue of police brutality,” Fredua says calmly, but with palpable fury. Cops are always gonna kill people. As long as there’s a justice system that lets these people kill someone and go about their day, there is never gonna be any type of change. This country is hell bent on keeping things the way it is – to keep the haves and the have-nots, the white and the Black, the Us and the Them, separate.” The footage of the recent shootings and lack of legal action against the officers involved has made it abundantly clear to the public that it is possible to kill a Black person with little to no consequence. Black activists like Fredua, understandably furious that their lives are proven to be worth less than white victims of similar violence, are routinely portrayed by mainstream media as “armed-and-dangerous Black Power rebels,” seconds away from violence. Fredua (Second from left) with Bad Rabbits In an interview with The New Yorker, Black Lives Matter co-founder Alicia Garza explained that this image is “a battle that we are consistently having to fight. Standing up for the rights of black people as human beings and standing against police violence and police brutality makes you get characterized as being anti-police or it has you being characterized as cop killers, neither of which we are.” Fredua expressed a similar frustration, explaining that “it’s easier for news channels like CNN, MSNBC, and FOX to show footage of angry Black people on TV than it is for them to show smart Black people with an idea. Nobody is listening to the solutions we’re trying to offer. And the picture they put up of the shooter in Dallas? A pissed-off black man with a dashiki and a fist up? That puts a target on my fucking back!” Despite all of the difficult topics that came up in our conversation, Fredua’s determination to keep performing and thriving as a Black man in America in 2016 shines through. His concluding statement was one of hope: “I was raised by two West African immigrants that came to this country on an American dream…I’m gonna make sure that I achieve it through them with my voice. That dream was to have a prosperous, peaceful, God-fearing life. I will die for that. I’m not afraid for a shooter coming to my show, I’ll jump in front of any bullet to protect a fan. I’m gonna do what I do until I die. I will literally die for this.” By Vincent Simboli Jul 19, 2016 Jul 19, 2016 0 ArtsArts & TheatricsCultureEntertainmentEventsFeminismStage Aftermath by Andrea Dworkin to be staged in Montreal This year marks the 10th anniversary of Andrea Dworkin’s death. On September 26th, 2015 she would have been 69 years old. Opening on September 17th and running until the 27th, Montreal Theatre company Waterworks will be presenting a world premier full staging performance of Aftermath. Based on a text written by Andrea Dworkin after her drug-rape in Paris in 1999. Her life partner, well known author and activist John Stoltenberg, found the original document on her computer. “…what I discovered was a 24,000-word autobiographical essay, composed in twelve impassioned sections, as powerful and beautifully written as anything Andrea ever wrote. It was searingly personal, fierce and irreverent, mordantly witty, emotionally raw. It was also clearly not a draft; it was finished, polished as if for publication.” The piece was edited and cut in half to about 90 minutes and directed by Stoltenberg and Dworkin’s longtime friend and collaborator Adam Thorburn. It was performed as a staged reading in New York by Maria Silverman in May of 2014. “At each step in putting this theater project together, I have wished I could talk with Andrea about it. I would want to tell her how the words she showed no one are now reaching and affecting audiences in live performance,” Stoltenberg writes. The Montreal production is being directed by Waterworks artistic directors Tracey Houston and Rob Langford and being performed by Montreal actor Helena Levitt as Dworkin. We’ve heard of this type of story before, more recently with the Bill Cosby allegations and Jian Ghomeshi spectacle where the victim’s creditability was brought into question. “If she can’t remember everything, then maybe it didn’t happen.” It was so long ago, maybe she’s a little sketchy on the details” ad infinitum. In the text, Dworkin refers to the drug Rohypnol and GBH. “This isn’t an aspirin in your drink. It’s not like getting drunk. It’s not like getting high. This is so easy for the boy. This is so simple for the boy. This is foolproof rape. The gang who can’t shoot straight can do this kind of rape. You can do this hundreds of times with virtually no chance of getting caught. I think how easy this evil is to do.” She goes on to describe how powerless one is to fight back from this kind of rape even after the fact, when there is no memory to report or very little if any evidence left behind. Aftermath is a very passionate, personal account of Dworkin’s life, family, work and thought process that very few people not familiar with her writings have yet to see or be aware of. Stoltenberg explains, “[Dworkin’s] stirring writing ranges dramatically over many themes—her aspirations when she was young, her erotic and romantic relationships, the marriage in which she was battered, her understanding of the connection between Jews and women, her take on President Clinton’s behavior, her deep commitment to helping women, her critique of women who betray women. And the fact that Aftermath is acted means audiences get to hear an emotional dimensionality in Andrea’s voice that in life she shared only with me and her closest friends—trenchant and oracular, as the public knew her, but also tender, sardonic, sorrowful, vulnerable, funny.” Rob Langford and Tracey Houston, founders of Montreal’s The Waterworks Company (Palace of the End, Gidion’s Knot, Glory Dazed), a troupe committed to staging the best of contemporary playwriting by women, found out about Aftermath last year from Stoltenberg’s Twitter feed, Langford contacted Stoltenberg, proposing to give Aftermath its first full staging here in Montreal. Aftermath runs September 17th to 27th, 2015, at the Centre culturel Georges-Vanier, 2450 Workman, Little Burgundy, a couple of blocks northeast of the Atwater Market. METRO: Lionel- Groulx. A special première takes place on September 17th at 8pm; the show runs over the next two weekends Fridays at 8pm, Saturdays at 4pm and 8pm, and Sundays at 4pm. Post-show talkbacks, with special guests, will take place throughout the first weekend. Admission is $18 / $13 (buyer chooses price). Tickets are available, via Eventbrite, at waterworksmontreal.com, or at the door. By James Douglas Sep 16, 2015 0 News Polytechnique: Remembering the victims 25 years and one day later On December 6th, 1989, 14 women lost their lives simply for living them the way they wanted to, while being female. The anniversary was yesterday, but you probably already know that. It’s important to remember what happened and remember the victims. If we can avoid mentioning what’s-his-name in the process, all the better. But we should never forget why he did what he did. If this was an isolated incident that we, as a society, have really learned from, and our annual commemoration of it has successfully prevented anything similar from happening, then we should just pat ourselves on the back, keep the 6th sacred and go about our lives the rest of the year. But that’s not the case, now is it? Gendered violence is still very much a part of our society. I could sit here and bring up Julien Blanc, GamerGate and the countless native women who go missing and turn up dead to prove my point, but I don’t want to and I shouldn’t have to. If you don’t believe that misogynistic violence is still a very real threat, then you’re either an idiot, a perpetrator, or you just haven’t been paying attention. If it’s the latter, then maybe one day a year isn’t enough. We’re still living in a world where what happened at Ecole Polytechnique on December 6th is still a possibility and variations of it are a frequent reality. This isn’t restricted to a single date on the calendar. Violence against women and tragedy can happen just as easily on December 6th as it can on December 7th, January 23rd or June 14th. We should keep commemorating the anniversary of this tragedy, but if we want to change a fundamental flaw in our society, we should realize that any day, including today, December 7th, is a good day to remember: Geneviève Bergeron Hélène Colgan Nathalie Croteau Barbara Daigneault Anne-Marie Edward Maud Haviernick Maryse Laganière Maryse Leclair Anne-Marie Lemay Sonia Pelletier Michèle Richard Annie St-Arneault Annie Turcotte Barbara Klucznik-Widajewicz May they rest in peace By Jason C. McLean Dec 7, 2014 0 FeminismLife Say no to victim blaming Trigger warning, this article discusses sexual assault and rape. After a 26-year old woman was sexually assaulted by a taxi driver a few weeks ago, the police told her that she had been the third victim of such an attack since July, and went on to find out that she was one of 17 similar cases currently being investigated this year. As if these facts were not hard enough to swallow, Montreal police spokesperson Laurent Gringast went on to suggest a number of ways women can protect themselves against predator cab drivers, which included not taking a cab when they are under the influence and taking a picture of the driver’s badge and sending it to a friend via text message. According to canadianwomen.org, half of all women in Canada have been assaulted at least once, either physically or sexually, since the age of 16. Half of all women. At least once. The website also goes on to explain sexual abuse (for those who are unfamiliar with the term, which seems to be the case here) as “Using threats, intimidation, or physical force to force [someone] into unwanted sexual acts”. So why, then, is it so easy to blame the victim? She was going home too late. She had drunk a few too many beers. And, of course, she hailed the cab right off the street instead of calling it in, so she was obviously looking for trouble. The real problem with victim blaming, though, is not one of petty sexist allegations. The biggest problem remains that many women are so afraid of being judged, that they cannot even admit that they were raped, primarily because of the sexist statements leaving the mouths of police commissioners themselves. How are women supposed to feel safe in a world where they are taught how not to get raped, instead of being insured true security over their own bodies and their minds? One young woman, Desiree Armstrong, recently came forward to the media about her own assault story, but only after it was revealed that the police were investigating 17 similar cases. When she had reported the assault to the police, they wouldn’t take her seriously, because she had been drinking. While the police went on to say that they may ask an intoxicated person to file a report the next morning, Armstrong maintains that she was not told that, and has since moved to British Columbia. Leading my own mini-investigation, I took to Facebook to ask my 363 ‘friends’ if any of them had any personal experiences with taxi-driver assaults. Thankfully, not too many people responded, save for two girls – one of them had a friend who had been raped by a taxi driver two years ago, and the other mentioned that she once rode in a cab with a nab who refused to take payment from her and instead insisting that “if [they] kissed/fucked, [they]’d be even.” She then went on to leave the cab without paying since the driver had refused to take her money. I myself, on the other hand, remember one particular night a few months ago. It must have been around three o’ clock in the morning. I was dying to get home after a long night out. A cab driver saw me standing on the sidewalk and motioned at me to come over. I entered his car and told him I needed to get home, but had no money. I had, indeed, been very intoxicated that night and had definitely not been thinking straight, so it sounded normal to me when the man said “Don’t worry, I’ll take care of it.” My idea of the world being full of good people rooted firmly in mind, I replied with, “Really? Wow, that’s so nice of you. Are you serious?” Then he said “Yeah, yeah,” in his weird accent and kind of pointed towards his pants, or something. I don’t remember this part with too much detail, but I remember him saying “You know?” And then I realized that he was suggesting that I pay him in some type of sexual “favor” in return for my “safe” trip home. I suddenly got scared and left the taxi, feeling quite shaken. While I wouldn’t call my story abuse, because I was obviously given the opportunity to say no, it did leave me feeling extremely paranoid. I can only imagine what these women have been through, but what I can’t imagine is what type of “men” these cab drivers must be in order to abuse a woman in her weakened state, especially when she is intoxicated or tired after a long day, and itching just to get home safe. I am wondering why we are investigating the type of women in these stories instead of the type of men conducting these crimes. I am wondering how it is supposed to be encouraging, at all, for a woman to be told not to take a cab home if she is intoxicated (what else is she supposed to do?), or that she is now expected to always take a photo of the taxi driver’s badge to maintain her own security. Expecting a reality where women are totally and completely precautious of everything they do is not only unrealistic but completely hypocritical. We can secure ourselves behind bulletproof glass, but that doesn’t stop people from still shooting at us. And sometimes the bulletproof glass isn’t so bulletproof. And sometimes women get raped, no matter how cautious they are. Conditioning women to believe that they are the problem takes the limelight away from the real problem, that is, the assaulters themselves. Causing fear can induce more self-built security, yes, but it is the blindness towards inequalities that will continue to perpetuate the problem, time and time again. By Bree Rockbrand Oct 23, 2014 0 NewsPolitics The gates of hell have opened: The hypocrisy of humanitarian intervention We’re in the thick of it, there’s nothing else to say. All the international credibility gained out of Canada’s decision not to intervene in the Second Gulf War under Jean Chrétien’s leadership was lost in the blink of an eye, when Harper announced Friday that Canada would be sending its troops into combat (airstrikes specifically, no ground troops at this time). The thing is, Canada’s “official” intervention is only two days old, but it is already gearing up to be a disaster of gigantic proportions, and ultimately an utter failure that will only delay, but not prevent, the coming of another ISIS. Canada might have given its green light for a full scale intervention only two days ago, but the coalition of the willing — which ironically includes Saudi Arabia and Qatar, two of the patrons of the radical interpretation of Islam promoted by ISIS — has been on the ground for around a month now. What are the conclusions that can be drawn? After one month, what is the future for this war? What new day is dawning on the horizon? Well, to say the least, it’s a very dark one. The black clouds that arose from the ruins of the Kurdish bastion of resilience, Kobane, gave us, spectators, a little glimpse into the future of this mission. The women of Kobane have armed themselves to fight against ISIS. As thousands of Kurdish fighters held back the reoccurring, never-ending assaults of ISIS against the town, Turkish tanks stood still — not much of a surprise —and Western jets flew on by. The battle of Kobane is a central one for the survival of the Kurdish struggle within northern Syria. Unfortunately the lightly armed Kurds are fighting against the much stronger ISIS forces, ironically, using American artillery and weapons to besiege the town. The hypocrisy of the Western forces and of their Turkish allies is obvious. They most certainly see this so-called humanitarian intervention, first and foremost, as a means towards an end: the eradication of the PKK and any viable Kurdish autonomous authority in the region. In one of my articles concerning the conflict I wrote extensively about the “revival” of the Kurdish struggle for self-determination and their project of asymmetric federalism. There, I referred to their struggle and to this project as an alternative form of governance for the peoples of the region and a strong vaccination against the rise of organizations such as ISIS. Three weeks down the path of war, and it seems like Kobane will fall within a matter of days, or even hours, even though this humanitarian intervention was supposed to prevent such a tragedy from happening. One month into this humanitarian intervention, and the American State Department has already announced that it was anything but humanitarian anymore. The White House announced today that civilian protection policy does not apply to the airstrikes in Syria. Apparently, protecting civilians in areas under rebel control from the wrath and vengeance of Syrian government forces is not part of the plan either. Within the past month much of the ground that was lost during the past three years by Assad has been regained. The bloodthirsty and mad dictator, whom the interventional community vigorously condemned for the usage of chemical weapons against his own people, is on cloud nine. Can you believe it? The Americans are actually winning Assad’s war for him. Instead of mobilizing and building strong alliances with the secular and progressive sections of the Free Syrian Army, we actually bombed them last week. So much for wining “hearts and minds!” We’re actually losing them, as the ISIS ranks are filled with thousands, if not tens of thousands of young disenchanted Westerners, who turned to radicalism after years of discrimination and racism, and after years of seeing on the TV their Muslim sisters and brothers suffer excruciating pain in Iraq, Palestine or at the hands of any other Western backed dictatorial regimes. Radicalism’s fuel is war, and unfortunately, through this war, we have swelled the reserves of hatred, of anger, of despair and of pain, everything ISIS was born out of, to last for a generation or two. If you believed the magical fairytale that whatever is happening was a humanitarian intervention, that we, the West, the ardent defenders of human rights, were on a courageous crusade against evil, that just like communism and fascism, this totalitarian evil of radical Islamism had to be quelled, you were wrong. Don’t be fooled. We are reviving ISIS. We created the conditions for it. We are reenacting them as we speak and what will come out of this third intervention in the Middle East might be more horrendous than anything our imaginations can grasp. By Niall Clapham Ricardo Oct 5, 2014 Oct 7, 2014 0 News #OccupyCentral: What’s happening in Hong Kong? “A few days ago in Hong Kong, students went down the streets and they’re protesting against the Chinese government’s recent decision to undermine Hong Kong’s democracy by stating that the candidates that [the Hong Kongese] would vote on in 2017 must be approved by Beijing, prior to election,” said Michael Law to me at the solidarity event that took place at McGill University last Wednesday on October 1. Law was one of the people who arranged the said solidarity event, which was the first one to be held in Montreal. All around the globe, other Hongkongers who are living abroad are organizing similar events to show their solidarity with what is happening back home. “We’re staging rallies to show that we are in solidarity with the students and protesters in Hong Kong. We’re allies of democracy and human rights,” Law added. From the solidarity event on October 1, at McGill University Alex Liu, the North American representative of the Black Island Nation Youth Front — one of the leading student protest groups and advocates for democracy, human rights and political transparency — was also present in the crowd. “The fact that the government is above the law is unacceptable; this is best demonstrated by the excessive violence the Beijing-appointed government has used against its own people. Peaceful protestors have been subjected to tear gas, water guns and the government now even threatens to use military forces against the protesters,” Liu said. (Alex Liu’s full speech can be found here.) The fear of having to face the Chinese military is real. Hui Peng, who is from mainland China, expressed that what is happening in Hong Kong is similar to what happened in China 25 years ago, at Tiananmen Square. Yet he still expresses hope. “There are some things that are familiar, and some that are different. This time, the people there, they are more disciplined. They know that they are not going to fight and they peacefully argue for their rights. I think there is hope. And what we can do is to urge the government to talk with the people, with the students, to work out a solution to what’s now happening in Hong Kong,” he said. The Chinese government has declared the peaceful protests illegal, and Chinese media has claimed that these events have been organized by foreign powers to upset the political stability of the country. Yesterday, however, things escalated. Anti-Occupy mobs started attacking the demonstrators, while the police stood by and watched. From the solidarity event on October 1, at McGill University Yet what we say here does not matter too much. What we need to hear is the voices of those who are fighting for democracy, those who are fighting for their rights. Below you will be able to read the raw words of students who are currently in Hong Kong. Joei Chan “I’ve always identified myself as a Hongkonger, and whenever asked the question why we consider Hong Kong different from China, I proudly explained how we enjoy a high degree of autonomy, have different governments, different legal systems and most of all, we enjoy freedom of speech, freedom of press, freedom to use the Internet and freedom of demonstration and assembly. None of those claims, unfortunately, seems to hold true anymore. Hong Kong is my home. It is, however, ceasing to be the home I’ve loved, known and recognized. Many question the effectiveness of OccupyCentral and laugh off people who expect to change China’s mind as ‘naïve’. But I cannot be more impressed by how posts after posts regarding the protests have flooded my newsfeed and Whatsapp since yesterday, and that even the most politically apathetic of us are provoked to speak up in face of appalling, heartbreaking injustice. The certainty of death doesn’t prevent us from living. The unlikelihood of victory shouldn’t prevent us from fighting.” Demonstrators in Hong Kong, photography by Joei Chan. Edwin Cheung “The biggest challenge of participating in the Umbrella Revolution is never the tear gases or the police, but your parents who don’t support it. When you think you are doing the right thing for the future of Hong Kong, they don’t appreciate and even do or say anything to make you stay home. I hope all Hongkongese should understand what is happening in Hong Kong and why Umbrella Revolution is necessary.” Ken Lee “Hong Kong had changed a lot since 1997, the return of sovereignty to China. The mainlanders (China residents) keep flooding in, affecting our daily life. I think this time, Hongkongers had enough. Everything we had — justice, freedom of speech — became nothing but just a word. This time, the government has pushed too far by using excessive force against unarmed students/protesters. I feel really sad and disappointed seeing Hong Kong’s government become like this: ignoring citizens’ voice.” Bridget Clancey “I am a supporter of universal suffrage and for real democracy in Hong Kong. Students came out last week beginning with the boycott of classes to make a point to the government that we care very much about what is happening, and also it is a very good opportunity for us students to learn about what really is happening in Hong Kong. This is due to the fact that actually HK students and citizens weren’t really politically aware before. As the Occupy Central movement started Sunday night, a lot of people criticized that the organizers took advantage of students’ innocence, but actually we cannot disagree more. We have our independent minds to analyze what is happening at the moment, we know that illegally occupying roads is risky as we might be caught, yet we continued because we know that if something wasn’t done now, we would regret it in the future when it’s too late to change. Photo taken in Hong Kong by an anonymous source. As for violence used by the police, I just had a change of opinions. Before yesterday, although I’ve also witnessed how heartless policemen could be by exercising violence, but I would say that they also have their orders, that even when some of them were inhumane by purposely removing their goggles and spraying pepper spray right into people’s eyes; even when I didn’t agree with what they did, I sort of understood what was going through their minds. But after two incidents, I couldn’t help but feel hopeless about the atmosphere in Hong Kong. The first incident was on Sunday, right before the series of tear gas was used. As I was leaving (I’d heard it would be dangerous), I saw a group of policemen, all geared up with weapons, protection and half of them had long guns loaded with rubber bullets. At that moment, I could imagine what could have brought the police to have decided in using such violent measures. What were they planning to do? Did they really think they could chase away the 40,000 people a kilometer ahead of them? Photo taken in Hong Kong by an anonymous source. And then this girl came up to the group of policemen. She was a student. She walked right up the them and asked several times why they planned to use violent measures. She begged them not to go on ahead ’cause there were many students, as a lot of participants were students. She cried and begged and tried to stop the policemen with words. However, after a couple of minutes, they simply ignored her and after the command was given by the head police, they ran forward. At that moment, the only thing that came to my mind was what happened in June, when that one single man stood in front of a whole train of tanks. That girl was so brave, yet it must be so terrifying to be in her shoes, she was so powerful yet so weak. The moment the police ran forward into the the direction where the crowd was running down from where they were, it seems very much like a battle field to me. I didn’t understand how the police could continue hitting people or using tear gas when we have nothing to use really to defend ourselves. And we weren’t violent, we didn’t even have weapons, as we had all along stressed that we are peacefully occupying the roads and wouldn’t do it by force. The second incident was what happened yesterday (it’s Saturday morning here now). In short, the opposing group came to make trouble, hitting people and sexually harassing girls of our side. The police condemned us, not them. We did nothing wrong. We were the victims yet the police had ‘ joined forces’ with the other side, which was pro-China, and didn’t act like a policeman should. There are many examples from yesterday of police catching the persons making trouble and then secretly letting them go at the corner of the street. How is this justice? Who can we depend on now? Though all this is heartbreaking, I try to pull myself together, because these are the times when they want to break us, but we would stand strong in demanding what we want. If we don’t start now, if we give up now, I really don’t see when we could have the opportunity to demand for universal suffrage again.” Photos by Cem Ertekin, unless stated otherwise. By Cem Ertekin Oct 4, 2014 Oct 4, 2014 0 News Vince Li and the politics of fear Given the highly charged atmosphere surrounding the debate on Vince Li specifically and the issue of Not Criminally Responsible murderers (and what to do with them) more broadly, I feel it is necessary to preface this article with a statement of both heartfelt sincerity and incredulity. I shouldn’t have to say this, but advocating for the sensible rehabilitation of criminals, both insane and otherwise, deference to expert authority and common sense thinking is not the same thing as advocating for a murderer over the rights of the victim and his family. Vince Li is being granted the right to go on an unsupervised half hour walk outside the grounds of his psychiatric hospital and a number of politicians, notably heritage minister and Manitoba MP Shelley Glover, have decided to feed the public’s fear of psycho killers by announcing their belief that this constitutes an egregious threat to public security. Common sense says otherwise, but ‘smart’ politics says it’s always best for a politician to stoke the public’s misplaced concern and present themselves as both community protector and advocate for ‘real’ justice. At a press conference to announce federal stimulus spending for the city’s 375th anniversary, the heritage minister and former police officer stated, emphatically, that her government will pass legislation that would incarcerate Vince Li and people like him for the rest of their natural lives. As one might expect, she presented her argument almost as a kind of vengeance for Tim Mclean and his family, whom she further emphatically sympathized with. The scene of the tragedy (via screengrab) I too have nothing but sympathy for the family of Tim McLean. I’m willing to bet what happened to him, what Vince Li did to him, was perhaps the single worst thing to ever happen to a human being on Canadian soil. It sickens me. I feel awful; for Tim’s family and for everyone on that bus that tragic night. But therein lies the crux of the matter. This is a tragedy. Vince Li did not murder Tim McLean per se. Vince Li was in a deep psychotic state and completely disconnected from reality. He may have been like this for days, perhaps even weeks prior. Criminal psychiatrists concluded that he acknowledges he killed Tim McLean, but – and this is crucial – that he was unable to form the necessary mens rea. In essence, court experts determined he is not criminally responsible because he lacks a guilty mind, and in common law establishing the case of a guilty mind is fundamental in a murder case. A traditional first or second degree murder charge would be impossible to prosecute because Vince Li believed he was commanded by god to kill an assassin who planned to kill him. In Mr. Li’s convoluted, sick mind he believed he had been chosen by his creator to save humanity from an imminent alien invasion. He had been hearing ‘the voice of god’ for four years prior to the killing of Tim McLean. The simple fact is Vince Li was an undiagnosed paranoid schizophrenic who killed an innocent person while in a deep psychotic state. The presiding judge accepted the diagnosis and remanded Mr. Li to a maximum security mental health facility where, for a while, he was in 24-hour lock-down, sedated, medicated and on suicide watch. Over the course of the last few years he has responded exceptionally well to treatment. Heavily medicated, he has been brought out of the psychotic state and returned to normalcy. As part of his rehabilitation process his file is reviewed annually by the Manitoba review board, a body whose purpose is to determine whether or not he’s responding well to rehabilitation and treatment and whether he poses a threat to himself or others. Year after year they found that he was not a threat and granted him privileges. First it was escorted walks on the grounds of the hospital. Then supervised walks into the town of Selkirk. Then supervised visits in other small towns. Where Vince Li lives now At each step of his rehabilitation a chorus arose over social media accusing the provincial government, the correctional and mental health services and many others of everything from incompetence to advocating for a murderer (a preposterous, if not insane notion). It has demonstrated both the public’s contempt of expert opinion and their belief our criminal justice system is deeply flawed, and politicians, ever vigilant, have jumped on the bandwagon. It’s expedient for a government that has shown nothing but contempt for government scientists, climatologists, environmentalists, academics of all variety, subject matter experts, jurists, the honourable opposition (etc.) to so inappropriately question the thinking and decisions of the Manitoba review board. Ms. Glover is a heritage minister, a Tory cheerleader, not a criminal psychiatrist. What right does she have to question the integrity and competence of the dozens of people most directly involved in this case? Let common sense reign. Vince Li has no money and no bus or taxi driver in Selkirk is going to come pick him up. He has a half hour to walk outside the hospital. That’s fifteen minutes in one direction before he has to turn around and go right back. If he decides to use this new privilege, he does so knowing he lacks protection. Up to now he’s been escorted everywhere by a peace officer and a nurse. If he goes for a walk off the grounds he does so knowing he risks being attacked if not killed. We can feel safe knowing he knows this, because he is no longer psychotic, his schizophrenia is under control. He exists in our world and knows the public is absolutely terrified of him. If he decides to use this privilege the hospital, as part of its due diligence, would have to alert local police. Ergo it’s highly unlikely Vince Li would be completely unsupervised. He wouldn’t have a police escort right next to him, but I think it’s safe to assume either the Selkirk police or the RCMP would have two armed officers follow him from a short distance. I don’t think he’ll be able to spontaneously demand he go for a walk. There’s likely a lot of paperwork and bureaucracy to go through. At the press conference Minister Glover indicated that, because of her time as a police officer in Manitoba, she ‘knew how hard it was to keep track of dangerous offenders.’ Perhaps. But not in Vince Li’s case. He is still incarcerated. He sleeps at the psychiatric hospital. As a consequence of his infamy he will only ever sleep in institutions or halfway houses for the rest of his days. The fear that Vince Li will one day be released into the general populace, to get a job and an apartment, is completely ludicrous. He’s unemployable. He’ll never be able to rent his own apartment, he has no family to support him. So it begs the question, what are we really afraid of? He is a ward of state forevermore. He is thoroughly supervised. There’s no way he could ever go off his medication as long as he remains institutionalized, and as long as he’s medicated and lives in a controlled environment (which as I already mention is his only option) he’s no threat, not to himself nor anyone else. Some people are nonetheless incensed. They believe that Vince Li either should’ve been killed on the scene by responding police officers or spend the rest of his days under total lockdown in a maximum-security prison. I think these people believe mental illness is a kind of trick used by the truly guilty to escape harsh punishment. I don’t know which is crazier, killing and cannibalizing a man you believe to be an alien assassin because god told you or thinking that a human being could be in their right mind and do such a thing. Suffice it to say there are a lot of people who would lose their careers if they’re wrong about Vince Li. Literally dozens of people would immediately find themselves without the jobs they worked so hard to become experts at. I don’t think anyone in his or her right mind would risk so much on a whim. None of the experts advocating for this new privilege would risk their careers unless they were absolutely certain Vince Li is no longer a threat to the public. They’re all aware of what needs to be done to ensure public safety, they have all the controls in place to ensure he stays medicated and that public security forces are aware of where he is at all time. As a society, we can’t allow ourselves to be commanded by fear and ignorance. We must approach the unknown and the tragic with a desire to understand and to learn. Li’s victim Tim McLean We only do Tim McLean a disservice if our approach to mental illness is to simply incarcerate those who are indeed not criminally responsible for their actions. If we want to ensure he didn’t die in vain, then we must do all we can to treat mental illness seriously and develop the mechanisms by which treatment is rendered affordable and illnesses of the mind are de-stigmatized. We only make the problem worse when we allow politicians to disregard expert opinion and basic, open, transparent common sense. We do ourselves harm when we allow common sense to be trampled by the fear mongering of politicians who exploit tragedy for personal gain. By Taylor Noakes Mar 2, 2014 0 NewsPolitics The phantom of the middle class Recently, in the House of Commons, “middle class” has become the favorite buzz word, omnipresent in every debate related near or far to the current state of the Canadian economy. “The middle class is hurting” is an almost daily remark uttered from the Liberal corner of the house as is the question “What is this government doing for the middle class?” Every dip or bounce in the GDP or in economic indicators resuscitates the urge of many parliamentarians to take care of this vital and yet fragile section of Canadian society. But no one has ever cared to define what middle class means in this day and age. Before claiming to be the champion of the middle class, one has to first identify what the middle class truly is and if the notion of middle class is the same as when the concept was first coined. The truth is that in many ways the middle class as a sociological entity was born in the post WWII period, built in many ways as a consequence of the Spirit of 45, which is brilliantly portrayed in Ken Loach’s documentary of the same name. This Spirit of 45 was the motor behind a blueprint to sap the economical and social foundations that had bred fascist and extreme right-wing ideologies in the first place. Scene from The Spirit of 45 Through communist, socialist, social-democratic forces during the first post-WWII decade, the foundations of the social state were laid: universal public health, universal access to post-secondary education, social insurance and more. This social welfare state is the engine that allowed the development of a new kind of social class which was universally described as the middle class. This development of capitalism with a human face went hand in hand with the construction of a mass consumerist class and here is where the dichotomy begins. Even though the accession of the middle class was enabled by the construction of a social welfare state, the majority of individuals of the middle class never considered themselves as the product of the social welfare state, or a product at all, because of the lack of class conciseness within the so-called middle class, the middle class never truly existed. To form a political or social class, one must first identify with the bonding aspects that supposedly connect individuals to one classification or another. So what are the unifying aspects of the middle class in economical, social or political terms? None, if there were some before, they hardly exist today. Unlike the working class, which is historically united around organized labor movements or expresses its political force through labor parties or the farmers which organized farmer organizations, be they unions, coops or political parties (the NDP is the alliance between those two social groups and political forces), the middle class has never succeeded in organizing around a certain set of values and principles. So the subsequent question is: if the middle class is not a class by definition, what meaning should give to this notion of middle class? One interesting historical aspect is that the development of the middle class as a notion that is intertwined with the neo-liberal revolution spearheaded by Thatcher and Reagan in the 1980s. At the time, the middle class was used as a synonym for the “silent majority”that was against taxes, against welfare fraud and thus against the social welfare state as a whole, against government in many ways and inherently individualistic, only preoccupied by economic matters. Here taxpayers and middle class are interchangeable. In the Canadian context, in many ways the consequent “common sense revolutions” of Mike Harris in Ontario and of the Reform Party on the federal level used the same rhetoric and couched their legitimacy on the shoulders of an invisible middle class. Today, global austerity, the tyranny of balanced budgets and growth as an end in and of itself use the same logic and are supposedly championed by the middle class. To be the “champion of the middle class” is to not challenge the reckless economic ideology that is at the root of the global recession despite the hardship of hundreds of thousands of Canadians, the true non-silent majority. The middle class as a notion is the worst enemy of everyone who in purely economic terms is middle class, in between the affluent sections of society and the disenfranchised. The motion that we are seeing today is the motion of disenfranchisement of the middle-class as a direct reaction to the advent of modern capitalism. Through austerity policies and the dictatorship of profit and the markets, the social welfare net which had been the motor of the ascension of the middle state is under assault. There is a complete disconnect between the economical reality of most middle class families today in Canada and the reality portrayed by politicians in the House of Commons. In that sense, the middle class is a complete abstraction, with no ties to reality. The middle class is anything and everything you want it to be, you can make it say what you want, however you want and when you want it and because it’s unrepresented, without a physical link to everyday reality, it will never contradict you. The Liberal and the Conservative parties fight in a meaningless debate to represent the silent majority of Canadians, the hurting middle class that needs jobs and economic growth, while on the other hand is okay with slashing corporate taxes and hand-outs for multinationals. Really, the middle class is Disneyland for political demagogy, it’s the link that reconciles the irreconcilable. The truth of the matter is that today a clear majority of Canadian households barely survive from paycheque to paycheque. In this reality where a living wage is an unforeseeable utopia, a majority of Canadians are indebted to their necks and most of my generation will start their professional careers with an already unhealthy amount of debt and in precarious jobs positions. This is the reality of the majority of Canadians and these elements constitute the new social class of the 21st century: the precariat. The middle class of yesterday is the precarious unemployed youth of today, the minimum wage slaves, the young families struggling to provide a standard of living for their children. These are the tens of millions of Canadians that have fear for their future and their financial stability. The notion of middle class cherished by many politicians is but an abstraction, it superimposes itself upon this dreaded reality with the objective to make it disappear. Forget your real situation, because as long as you considered yourself middle class, trust us and there will be a better tomorrow for you and me. Little do they know that the prosperity and the growth they talk of created the dismay of the middle class as a tangible reality, as something to look forward to. Now we are all precarious. By Niall Clapham Ricardo Feb 16, 2014 Feb 16, 2014 0 NewsPolitics 2013: The year of the socialist alternative It’s that time of the year again, the time for review of the year articles, the top 10s of 2013, the political winners and the political losers. Unfortunately this article is not going to take such a clear cut stance, but it will make reference to one of the most important tends in this past year, the rise of the socialist alternative. 2013 most certainly could go down in the memories of progressives, radicals, rabble-rousers and revolutionaries as just another dull year within an infinite sea of rampant victorious capitalism. Some might say, as always amazing movements were bread in these past 365 days but none of them gave birth to anything of substance. And such could be said of almost every year since Fukuyama, oracle in chief of the new world order, announced the end of history. For Fukuyama and the neo-liberal guard, the fall of the wall of Berlin and the collapse of the Soviet Bloc coincided with the ushering in of a new age, a never changing age of relentless growth and prosperity, an age in which any alternative to capitalism was dead in the egg. From the onset, Fukuyama’s divination seemed quite fragile. It foresaw a utopia on earth, but never answered the question, for whom? Was this the end of history? Some think so, but is that changing in 2013? Certainly since 1989 the rapid growth of global capitalism is due to the erasing of almost every from of regulation: regulation of the financial markets or regulation of trade. In this new world the main enemy is any barrier to the complete freedom of multinationals and corporations. In pure economic terms there is no doubt that these past decades have been fabulous for the GDP and NASDAQ and all their siblings within the family tree of economic indicators. The wild 90s and 2000s were la belle époque, but not the end of history. For its proponents and ardent defenders the end of history was not, in any way shape or form, the end of inequality or the dawning of a more just world, quite to the contrary. For those that crafted the doublespeak rhetoric of the end of history, it literally meant that, like it or not, capitalism was here to stay. The only alternative, communism, had crumbled and thus from now on consumerism was a synonym for freedom, capitalism was liberty and inequality was the natural way of things. On the other hand any “alternative” to the new modus operandi was thrown into the dustbin of history alongside “communism” (insert here Stalinism). Any movement that spoke of a greater redistribution of wealth or fought for the defense of the social welfare state – or as Franklin Delano Roosevelt called it, the right to an adequate standard of living – was trash. For the neo-liberal elite, the welfare state is seen as the final frontier, a regulation of society at large that must be abolished under current standards. Thus ‘left-wing’ movements, be they social-democratic, socialist or any other alternative tendency, have been struggling for relevance in this new age and some have chosen the path of least resistance and decided to implement the norms and dictates of the end of history, somehow thinking that this would make them relevant again. Hand in hand with this loss of relevance goes the alienation of many groups in society that have lost for faith in the democratic system in its entirety. A democratic system that offers no substantial alternative breeds in itself disaffection and apathy, slow is the death of democracy as we know it. Michelle Bachelet during the most recent presidential election in Chile And yet the 2008 crisis has planted the seeds of something new. The world has been rocked by popular discontent voiced in different ways, in very different parts of the globe. And the year 2013 was no different with continued uprisings in Europe against austerity –the dismantling of the welfare state through brutal “structural adjustments”– uprisings in Turkey against the privatization of public spaces, here in Canada protests, led by First Nation, Inuit and Metis communities, erupted against environmental degradation for short-term profit. But most importantly, 2013 was a year in which many struggles gained concrete victories amidst great aversion. In Chile, Camila Vallejo, Gabriel Boric, Giorgio Jackson and Karol Cariola, leaders of the student protests that have rocked the country since 2011, were elected to parliament. Vallejo was elected on a communist ticket and that party, after the last legislative elections, has the biggest percentage of seats since the time of Salvador Allende. Still in Chile, Michele Bachelet was reelected to the highest position in the country with a whopping 62 percent of the vote, the biggest percentage for a presidential candidate in the history of the Chilean left. Madame Bachelet was elected on a platform to continue to roll back the reforms that were ushered in under the military junta of Pinochet and to implement universal free post-secondary education. From Kshama Sawant’s twitter, campaign for 15 dollars minimum wage One of the greatest victories of 2013 surprisingly had for a backdrop the United States of America. For the first time since the great depression, a major American city elect an openly socialist candidate to office. Kshama Sawant was elected bringing to the center stage of American politics the struggle for a living wage instead of a minimum wage, rent control and higher taxes for the wealthiest. The victory of her grassroots movement is the embodiment of the Socialist Alternative that in 2013 started to dawn. In Europe, splinter left-wing groups that offer a true alternative to the neo-liberal status-quo championed by center-center right and center-center left wing political parties are on the rise. Syriza the ‘radical’ left-wing coalition of several left-wing political parties is now given the lead in the polls. Syriza’s leader Alexis Tsipras, has been endorsed by the European left to lead a new anti-austerity coalition in the upcoming European elections. Syriza founding congress picture by Eleanna Kounoupa Creative Commens on Flickr Here in Montreal, Projet Montreal more than doubled its seats in city council and has become, for the first time in history, official opposition. A coalition of progressives from all walks of life and Quebecois left-wing political tendencies has shown the way for left-wing movements to link social movements and grassroots politics to a prominent place on the political spectrum. For these reasons the year that is now coming to end was a very fruitful one in which the alternative to this current system of savage capitalism grew in an extraordinary manner, and announced the return of history. For this reason we have much to look forward to in 2014. A Luta Continua By Niall Clapham Ricardo Dec 28, 2013 0 NewsPolitics Haze on the Hill: Justin Trudeau and the weed vote Justin Trudeau supports the legalization of marijuana. Not only that, he’s not afraid to admit that he’s smoked the odd joint himself. Unless Tom Mulcair and the NDP do something about it, it may just make him Prime Minister. I don’t say this lightly or even enthusiastically, far from it. I’ve been an ardent NDP supporter for years and with my party poised to take power for the first time ever, to lose by being outflanked from the left by a right-leaning centrist with a good head of hair would be disastrous. What’s worse is that as an MP, Trudeau both voted for Bill C-15 which imposed mandatory minimum sentences and smoked at least one joint. That hypocrisy will probably be forgotten or ignored by some voters, potheads aren’t known for their memory but they do turn up at the polls (Colorado and Washington, anyone). While Trudeau may be a hypocrite, he’s a hypocrite who knows good electoral strategy when he sees it. He has nothing to lose and everything to gain. The only voters he’ll alienate are those in Harper’s Alberta base, people who will vote Conservative no matter what. He won’t lose the Ontario hockey moms who may have voted for Harper last time for economic reasons, in fact he may gain support from those who know their kids will probably experiment with the drug once or twice and don’t want to see them in jail for smoking a joint. Meanwhile, supporting outright legalization will undoubtedly steal votes from the NDP in their former BC base and maybe even in their current stronghold of Quebec, if voters can get by the last name Trudeau. While a political battle between the love of ganja and hatred of the man who put tanks on the streets of Montreal being directed at his son may be interesting to watch, it doesn’t have to happen at all. During the NDP leadership campaign, a reporter asked Mulcair if he would legalize pot if Prime Minister and he said no (the party has since reaffirmed its commitment to decriminalization), they would need to run studies first. I strongly suggest that he quietly commissions whatever studies he feels are needed now so the next time someone asks him if he also supports legalization he can answer with an emphatic yes. It will also be a much more honest yes than Trudeau could possibly give. If both leaders support pot legalization, then the one who did so after conducting the research he said he would do would seem like and be a much better choice than the guy who voted with Harper to harshly punish people who enjoyed what he enjoyed and only embraced legalization when it was clearly a good move electorally. If the NDP want to remain the only alternative to Harper, then they need to at the very least match the Liberals on social issues. Surpassing them with progressive economics won’t be enough if they lose progressive ground on the next hot button social cause. Canada is a centre-left country and has always been. A neo-con majority government is just good strategy by the Conservatives and not an indication of changing values. It seems like the Mulcair and the NDP, closer to power than they ever have been before, may have forgotten that. I fear both removing socialism from the party’s constitution and Mulcair’s views on legalization both walk on the same cold feet. I know that I’m probably more radical than your average voter but I can see how removing a word, even one that doesn’t carry the same negative connotations here as it does in the states, isn’t the end of the world. If the competition aren’t calling themselves socialist, then socialists who want to vote for a party that has a chance will still vote NDP, word or not. Standing on the wrong side of history when it comes to marijuana legalization, on the other hand, is inexcusable for a party that needs progressive support to win. If the NDP acts swiftly and comes out with a pro-legalization stance backed by scientific research, then they will, forgive the pun, smoke out Trudeau’s hypocrisy. Otherwise, pro-pot voters may get lost in the haze and make Trudeau PM. * Top image by MontrealSimon.blogspot.ca By Jason C. McLean Aug 27, 2013 0 News Decriminalize It All! * This post originally appeared on QuietMike.org, republished with permission from the author The Canadian Drug Policy Coalition (CDPC) issued a report last week titled “Getting to Tomorrow: A Report on Canadian Drug Policy.” The report calls for our Conservative federal government to change its National Anti-Drug Strategy and decriminalize all drugs for personal use and legalize and regulate marijuana for adults. The authors of the report (Connie Carter and Donald MacPherson) recommend that Canada reform its drug policy and regulations to include evidence-based approaches to drugs, with the hope of eliminating the stigma and discrimination around the substances. Evidence-based approaches are not in our Conservative Government’s vocabulary or ideology. If it were, not only would our drug policies be vastly different, but our environmental and economic policies would be as well. You can’t expect a government so hostile to science to embrace facts of any kind. Speaking of hostility, since Stephen Harper first came into office seven years ago, his party has been nothing but antagonistic towards all forms of drugs. Our law and order government has increased fines and jail time for drug offences and even introducing mandatory minimum sentences for all sorts of drug felonies. The “lock them up and throw away the key” approach runs in conjunction with the conservative belief that drug addiction itself is criminal. Harper has continually tried to close North America’s only safe injection site. Vancouver’s “Insite” has proven repeatedly that these sites reduce crime, overdoses and the spread of HIV. Insite has even helped addicts to kick the habit. A four-year study released last year suggests both Ottawa and Toronto would benefit from supervised drug injection sites, but all attempts to create them have been blocked by then Health Minister Deb Matthews. Other critics of these new safe injection sites included former Ottawa police chief Vern White and ironically Toronto Mayor Rob Ford. It’s just like our Government to keep moving in the opposite direction despite Stephen Harper admitting last year in South America that the drug war has been a failure. “What I think everybody believes, is that the current approach is not working. But it is not clear what we should do.” He said. Well, if the status quo isn’t working and it isn’t clear what to do about it, why does Harper’s government continue to dismiss every type of alternative? Do the deaths of 60 000 Mexicans or the record number of incarcerated Americans not convey a message to him? Does he not understand that it’s cheaper to treat those trying to quit? The CDPC report also recommended an increase in health and social services for addicts and social users alike. Services such as housing and treatment for drug addicts and increased support for educational programs about safer drug use must be in the cards. The report essentially advocated an increase of treatment centers and safe injection sites. It’s understandable that a certain portion of the population might be skeptical of decriminalizing all forms of drugs, particularly the elderly and religious. The longevity of drug prohibition coupled with decades of anti-drug propaganda has left a lasting impression on our aging populace. It’s no wonder the call for change is coming mainly from the younger generations. I’m not entirely sure what religion has against drugs, but I imagine it has something to do with the purity of the soul. If we weighed the pros and cons of decriminalizing drugs, you’ll find the argument is fairly one sided. The primary reasons to support decriminalization are cost and health. Canada spends more than $4 on enforcement for every $1 we spend on the health related to illegal drugs ($400.3 million – $88 million). If you factor in courts and corrections, we spend $2.3 billion annually. Roughly 50 000 people are arrested and charged every year resulting in 400 000 court appearances. This is just bad policy given that $1 spent on treatment will achieve the same reduction in the flow of cocaine as $7.3 spent on enforcement. With all the money allocated to enforcement, those who want to quit or be treated are the ones who continue to suffer. Now, what kind of “moral” society spends more money locking people up than they do to treat sick people? In Canada, we have public health care and we don’t have private prisons, I can’t understand where the motivation to keep drug users and dealers in prison is coming from. The only real argument to keep drugs illegal is that drug use would increase, but how real of an argument is that? Even if it’s true, at least we would have more funds to treat those addicted. I was a drug user throughout my late teens and twenties. I can tell you the legality of drugs didn’t come into play when I did them. If anything, it attracted me to them. Do people still believe that keeping drugs illegal will keep rebellious teens from trying them? Honestly, from what I remember back then, I was pissed off at everything (still am!). My parents instilled a good set of morals upon me, but no government was going to tell me what I can and can’t do. If only our Conservative government could receive the same morals I got, maybe we’d have more treatment centres and less prisons. By Quiet Mike May 27, 2013 0 News An ocean liner to boost Montreal Casino revenue This post originally appeared on TaylorNoakes.com, republished with permission from the author So Loto-Québec is planning on introducing drinking on the floors of the province’s four casinos as part of a broader effort to update and modernize the casinos to increase revenue and draw higher attendance. Currently both are down, prompting the péquiste health minister (?) to state “it’s time we got our heads out of the sand and ensures our casinos can be competitive.” As it stands, Québec’s casinos are the only casinos in North America where the consumption of alcohol is not permitted on the gaming floor. When the Casino de Montréal opened in 1993 it was a bit of a big deal. It was supposed to be classy. The restaurants were top-notch, the chefs and wine selection unbeatable. There was even a dress code – jackets and ties for men, no hats, no jeans etc. I think this is something we should maintain. Everything about our casino, as initially intended, was almost designed to de-emphasize the gambling: It’s not a big gray box. It doesn’t disorient the patrons by omitting windows. It invites patrons to step away from the gaming, to go outside and get some fresh air. These are design elements we should continue to value. There’s no doubt our casino and state-regulated gambling is useful – it funnels money from the people’s pocket back into the government purse. Loto-Québec is a provincial crown corporation whose mandate is ‘to operate games of chance in the province in an orderly and measured way’ and I would argue strongly they do a generally good job, even though I’m morally opposed to the practice in the first place. I suppose it’s not so bad if it’s rich tourists who are losing their money – they can afford it. But all too often casinos wind up preying, even if indirectly, on the poorest elements of society. The people most desperate for a financial break are all too often those with bad finances and who exercise poor jugement with their money. And whereas there once were controls, like the dress code and limitations on drinking on the playing floor, these have been shelved to accomodate the poor yet regular patrons who provide the bulk of the casino’s revenue during a prolonged period of economic instability, such as we’re experiencing right now. Why look to locals as our main source of casino revenue? And why isn’t Montreal’s casino generating money specifically for our own needs? The city could use revenue generated by the Casino de Montréal more immediately and doubtless more efficiently. As it stands today this money is sent to Québec City, where I suppose it’s moved back into general revenue. This doesn’t help us much at all, yet Montréal is on the hook for nearly every negative repercussion from casino operations in the city – everything from the social problems associated with gambling addiction in our poorest neighbourhoods to the inevitable suicides and road accidents that happen on the otherwise deserted junction of Ave. Pierre-Dupuy and the Pont de la Concorde. So let’s do something different. The city ought to take in a greater share of our casino’s revenue, but we can’t argue this position unless we’re willing to provide our own plan to increase attendance and revenue. Thus, I would argue strongly that the city should look to acquire the single greatest missing piece from our casino’s master plan – a hotel – and assist in redeveloping the Casino de Montréal with a new hotel and resort component. This in turn could be part of a larger plan to increase the use and revenue generated by all the diverse functions of Parc Jean-Drapeau. Inter-island Channel, Parc Jean-Drapeau But where would we build a hotel? Ile-Notre-Dame doesn’t have much space to support a large hotel and construction may render the island temporarily unusable. Permanently mooring a cruise ship or ocean liner within proximity of the casino presents us with an interesting possibility to get everything we need for a major casino expansion without having to build much. It would allow us to rather suddenly put a lot of hotel space more or less in the centre of the city’s park islands. Rather than building new we simply tow a full expansion into position. It would look good, it would be exceptionally unique and would further serve to provide a lot of direct financial stimulus for our otherwise underused (and at times worn-down) Parc Jean-Drapeau. I’ve often felt that this grand playground lacks any unifying cohesiveness – it’s simply the space we put all the stuff we can’t place elsewhere. We’ve purposely concentrated a lot of diverse entertainment in one space and have done well in maintaining that space’s utility within the public conception of the urban environment. Yet it’s still very detached, isolated even, from the rest of the city. I feel a floating hotel solves more than one problem, using the location’s relative isolation to its advantage. For locals and people from the region, it could provide a much-needed ‘urban resort’, a place to get away from it all that’s oddly located in the middle of everything. For foreign tourists or families on vacation, it provides a hotel in a controlled environment almost exclusively dedicated to family friendly activities. Re- instituting the dress code and prohibiting drinking from the gaming floor in this newly expanded casino could serve to help sell the image of a classy and unique vacation experience catering to a wide variety of tastes. Think about it: Parc Jean-Drapeau is a large multi-use park with a considerable natural component, occupying roughly the same amount of space as Mount Royal Park (2.1 square kilometers). It features, among others, a beach, an aquatics centre & rowing basin, manicured parks and trails, an amusement park, a historic fort and a premier outdoor concert venue. Placing a hotel in the middle of it, associated with the aforementioned casino, would surely drive up revenue not only for the casino but everything else going on at the park as well. It could conceivably make the park more useful during the winter months and provide sufficient new revenue so as to redevelop the Biosphere, Helene-de-Champlain restaurant and give the whole place a facelift too. And I don’t think it would take much of anything away from the city’s existing hotels as, from my experience, Parc Jean-Drapeau is nearly exclusively used by locals, being perhaps a little too detached for tourists. For your consideration, this rather handsome looking (and famous) ocean liner, the SS United States, can accomodate 5000 people and is in desperate need of a buyer to keep her from the breakers: SS United States by Wikipedia contributor Lowlova Definitely worth reconsidering, in my humble option. If you happen to be looking to buy a cruise ship, look no further.

It’s an unfortunate reality that more and more people are falling victim to hackers, with the average cost of each cyberattack totaling out at $3.86 million, and as we all know, most of them originate from exploiting the human factor. Fortunately, there’s a simple solution to protect your employees from cyberattacks while they’re on the job: CyberNite. CyberNite provides each of your employees’ personal security against hackers looking to steal information or otherwise compromise your company’s data, giving you peace of mind that your organization’s information and networks are safe. Recent successful phishing attacks prove hackers are becoming too sophisticated and personal for the standard anti-phishing solutions, mainly since they do not hold any clear technical indicators standard security systems expect to find in a malicious message. Organizations should look for solutions capable of covering these new attacks. A solution such as this can detect and identify communication anomalies and make the end user aware of the attack and its significant characteristics. This way, they are able to recognize a malicious email, text message, or chat message when they encounter one, even if it looks like a legitimate message. The next generation of multi-channel cyber defense systems is personalized and tailored to the end-user. It learns the user’s characteristics, contacts, and behavior so they can determine if the user is being attacked. CyberNite is one such system, which detects abnormal communication, alerts the user before taking any action, explains what the issue is, and prepares the user to respond to it. Cybernite is not only analyzing the message characteristics to understand the message’s true nature, but also the relationship between sender and recipient, past communications, subjects, language, terms, and type of communication. A real-life recent case: David is a customer of XLZ Technologies. He usually receives invoices from Suzan at the end of each month. Last month he got the mail from Suzan on the 15th, the thing is, it wasn’t really Suzan, an hacker took over her account and sent the invoice and payment request. The mail included an identical invoice format, but, with a change of bank account details, “Suzan” asked David to change the payment routing and demanded that it will be transferred ASAP. Since everything looks legitimate- the sender, attachment, language, and standard E-Mail security system will find nothing suspicious about the message and deliver it to David’s inbox. In order to deal with any questions David might have, the hacker added a rule on Suzan’s account which routed messages from David to the trash account in order to avoid questions regarding the transfer delivered to Suzan. Of course, David isn’t a cyber expert, he works with dozens of payment requests a day, so he changed the money transfer destination and transferred a large amount of money to the hacker’s account. A very successful one for the hacker. When we deployed Cybernite and analyzed those emails using Cybernite’s analysis, we discovered Cybernite would have alerted David several times during the process. Cybernite will notify David that this may be a Business Email Compromise (BEC) attack, which reroutes funds to the attacker’s account. Cybernite will identify the change of Bank Account number and warn of the manipulative nature of the message. Cybernite will engage David in a dialogue to examine the anomalies, in order to determine a clear-cut decision – this is a scam! This is one example of how Cybernite can understand and identify sophisticated attacks which have no clear malicious indications, the sender is trustworthy and known, there is no malicious link, no dangerous attachment, and even the language is legitimate. In addition, Cybernite has a knowledge base of millions of known attacks, so it can determine whether an attack is known or not. Combined with unique AI technologies, Cybernite is the next-generation solution for sophisticated attacks. © 2022 Cybernite – A complete Cloud Email Security solution. All rights reserved.

In chapter 10 of the Book of Matthew, Jesus delivers a sinister and jealous tirade to his disciples, admonishing them against insufficiently dedicating themselves to him. The rant culminates in the memorable command, “He that loveth father or mother more than me is not worthy of me: and he that loveth son or daughter more than me is not worthy of me.” Such an attitude is typical of cult leaders, whose power and influence is most likely to be threatened by the concerned family members of their brainwashed victims. Christians believe some strange things, but do any of them actually place this eccentric and possibly nonexistent Bronze Age preacher ahead of their families? “It's pretty easy for me to say that the most important thing in my life is my relationship with Jesus Christ, followed by my relationship with family.” So said not John the Baptist, but Tim the Quarterback, as in Tim Tebow of the New York Jets. Tebow’s personal life is none of my concern. Indeed, I’ve no doubt I would find it as mundane and uninteresting as the next person’s. But there is something perverse about relegating one’s family to a secondary importance behind a “relationship” with a person who has been dead for 2,000 years. Although Tebow does not have any children at the moment, it would be interesting to ask him if his attitude would change if he did. Or perhaps Tebow would simply remain steadfast in his commitment to the god, who, in the Book of Genesis, orders Abraham to kill his son, Isaac. As if this cruel command were not disturbing enough, we are told that Abraham actually agreed to carry it out, and brought Isaac up a mountain fully prepared to sacrifice his son to quench the bloodlust of the cosmic tyrant until at the last moment … just kidding! God sent an angel to intervene to stop the madness, as he was satisfied with the level of dedication Abraham had shown. If Tim Tebow, or any other evangelical received an order from god to kill a close relative or anyone else for that matter, would they do it? Admittedly, the question is absurd on its face. But given the contents of the Bible, and also the dedication that evangelicals say they have to god, it is a valid one to ask. If god really exists as evangelicals say, then we know he is entirely capable of making such demands of his earthly worshippers as he demonstrated again and again in the "good" book. Of course, the question is only useful from a hypothetical standpoint, designed to ascertain the degree of one’s commitment—or more accurately, mentally indentured servitude—to the deity. I would be interested in hearing whatever answers true believers would like to provide in the comments. It could be an interesting thought experiment, but nothing more, because fear not, god will not be asking anyone to do anything.

It is a well-known fact that no two thumbprints are alike. Like the thumbprints, we believe that every child is born with a unique personality. Each child has a unique DNA print and brain network that dictates the manner in which the child assimilates processes and reacts to stimuli. We aim to translate our belief that ‘Every Child is Unique’ into a pedagogy that adapts to the child’s unique learning style. Education Should Foster Real Understanding: Understanding is different from knowledge. While knowledge relies on memory, understanding relies on conceptual clarity. We aim to apply our belief that ‘Education Should Foster Real Understanding’ through our proprietary content and assessment tools. Real Understanding through an Integrated Approach: A school is a micro-system where different factors have an effect on the child. The teachers, the curriculum, the examinations, the environment, the infrastructure, the activities, all come together to nurture the unique potential of the child. Our philosophy of ‘Real Understanding through an Integrated Approach’ is implemented through our Litera Octave approach towards education. We aim to blend technology into the teaching method of the students in a manner that they learn to consider it as an aid /tool for development and productivity, rather as an asset or object of luxury.

On Tuesday's "Slater and Marjo In The Morning" the subject of Q-tips came up. Now, Q-tip is a brand just like Tylenol or Advil or Kleenex, you get the idea. Cotton swabs are commonly used for removing earwax from your ear canal, and despite warnings, we still do it. I don't what came first, the cotton swab's relief of my inner ear itch or was the cotton swab causal? Whatever the reason, I feel like I'm addicted to Q-tips. Am I alone? Q-Tips Facebook Q-Tips Facebook loading... Every year it seems that an article comes out about just how bad cotton swabs are for your ear canal. Being in the audio business, I kind of need to hear. Am I harming myself? My hearing is really really good, to boot. Ear wax is necessary, ears are self cleaning, you can damage your ears, blah blah blah. I mean, non of the aforementioned is untrue, but my ears CRAVE cotton swabs after I get out of the shower. I also feel it wasn't always this way. 😁😂 jacoblund jacoblund loading... Apparently, I'm not alone. Tickling their insides triggers all sorts of visceral pleasure. But there's more. Using Q-tips leads to what dermatologists refer to as the itch-scratch cycle, a self-perpetuating addiction of sorts. The more you use them, the more your ears itch; and the more your ears itch, the more you use them. -washingtonpost.com Somewhere along the way, I don't know if it was exceptional marketing on Q-tip's behalf or what, but I seem to be using cotton swabs more and more, so much more that now even the outer part of my ear is starting to get dry and itchy. I definitely have an addictive/obsessive personality, so I better lay off the Q-tips! Marjo compared my Q-tip addiction to her Chapstick addiction. 15 Ways You Can Help People in Ukraine Right Now As Americans watch events unfold in Ukraine, many wonder how they can help.

William Heinemann published the first British edition, and Doubleday published the first American edition. William Heinemann reprinted THE ANGELS WEEP a few times: in 1982 (twice in the same year as the first printing), and 1989 for a Uniform Edition. I own an exceedingly rare Uncorrected Proof copy Below: my nicest copy of the British first edition I own 3 more copies of the first printing of the British first edition. Wilbur signed 3 of my copies. The very copy that Wilbur gifted to his mother-in-law is now in my collection. "Mom" is Danielle's mother. I have not seen another signed copy where Wilbur included a date, making this copy even more rare that it already is. The signature within one of my copies A unique signed copy that I found on the Internet, not my copy I have owned and sold several signed copies of THE ANGELS WEEP. The copies below are first printings. Doubleday published its first edition in 1983 I own an exceedingly rare Uncorrected Proof copy The paper below is glued to the inside front cover of the Uncorrected Proof I have never found a copy of THE ANGELS WEEP that has on its copyright page any statement to the effect that it is a first edition. Nothing like 'First Edition in the United States of America' found in earlier Wilbur Smith Doubleday editions, such as A SPARROW FALLS or EAGLE IN THE SKY, appears on the copyright page for THE ANGELS WEEP. However, the Uncorrected Proof DOES STATE on its copyright page that it is a first edition. Due to the extreme rarity of copies of the Uncorrected Proof, I may be the only collector of Wilbur Smith books who owns a Doubleday edition of THE ANGELS WEEP that is a stated "first edition."

New documentary Seaspiracy has sparked horror from viewers who witnessed the horrors of the fishing industry in the film. The Netflix documentary examines the damage done to our ocean environments through human behaviour. It comes from one of the makers of acclaimed documentary Cowspiracy, filmmaker Ali Tabrizi, who co-directed the 90-minute film alongside Lucy Tabrizi. Examining the impact of plastics, pollution from the fishing industry, illegal fishing, and brutal hunting practices, the film asks difficult questions about what we are doing to our seas and how this will impact the planet and our future in the long-term. However, viewers were especially horrified by the treatment of dolphins that the film highlighted. Read More Related Articles Finally, one Seaspiracy viewer concluded: “Genuinely pretty shocked watching #Seaspiracy on #Netflix We all need to think carefully about eating fish. “I’m shocked to see that many of the labels that claim to guarantee the protection of marine life, such as my favourite dolphins, apparently aren’t doing so!! Shocked”. *Seaspiracy is available now on Netflix. Have you watched Seaspiracy? If so, what did you think of the documentary? Let us know in the comments below.

Agreements between employers and their employees prohibiting or restricting competition by a departing employee are nothing new, but their use is growing—and not just for the highest levels of management. This trend makes it all the more important to understand the limits that courts have placed on such agreements, with a view toward balancing employers’ interests with policies favoring competition and unfettered opportunities for individuals to pursue their livelihoods. While courts have sometimes struck down noncompete agreements in their entirety, occasionally they effectively have rewritten parts of an agreement, a practice known as “blue penciling,” so as to fix offending parts while retaining acceptable provisions. In employment contracts, restrictive covenants, as they are sometimes called, are from the outset suspect as restraints of trade that are disfavored at law, and they must withstand close scrutiny as to their reasonableness. For the same reason, they generally are not to be construed to extend beyond their proper import, or farther than the contract language absolutely requires. In cases of ambiguous language, to borrow a term from baseball, the “tie” goes to the former employee. The requirements for enforcing a noncompete agreement may vary some from state to state, but a typical set of conditions requires that the agreement (1) be necessary for the protection of the employer that is, the employer must have a protectable interest justifying the restriction imposed on the activity of the former employee; (2) provide a reasonable time limit; (3) provide a reasonable territorial limit; (4) not be harsh or oppressive as to the former employee; and (5) not be contrary to public policy. In keeping with the law’s predisposition against such agreements, generally the employer has the burden of proving the reasonableness of a noncompete clause. In a recent case involving a company that distributed novelty items to convenience stores and similar businesses, a noncompete clause that prohibited a route salesperson from interfering with or attempting to entice away customers—who were customers of the employer during a one year period before the employee’s termination, and whom the employee had serviced, dealt with, or obtained special knowledge about during his employment—was found by a court to be reasonably necessary and enforceable to protect the employer’s business. The employer had a legitimate interest in prohibiting solicitation of its recent past customers and in winning back their business, and, as to such customers, the former employee would be in a far better position than an ordinary competitor, with a distinct advantage were it not for the noncompete restriction. The case of the novelty items business resulted in a split decision for the employer. A separate clause in the agreement, referred to as the “business” clause, prohibited a former employee, for 24 months following his or her termination, from engaging “in any business which is substantially similar to” the employer’s business. The court concluded that this provision went too far. It did not protect a legitimate business interest and was thus unenforceable. The engagement of a former employee in a similar, but noncompetitive, enterprise posed little, if any, additional danger to the employer. When a tax return preparation firm sued a former employee for breach of a noncompete agreement, the court used a standard providing that an agreement of that kind will be enforced only if the business interests the employer seeks to protect and the effect the covenants have are reasonable as to (1) duration; (2) the capacity in which the former employee is prohibited from competing against his or her former employer; and (3) the geographic territory in which the former employee is restricted from working. The court held that the noncompetition clause in the tax preparer’s employment contract was overbroad for failing to properly limit the territory to which it applied, making the entire covenant unenforceable. The clause purported to limit the former employee from working for any employer whose business included the preparation and electronic filing of income tax returns, if that employer was located, conducted business, or solicited business in the geographic district where the former employee had previously worked or within 10 miles of the district’s borders, even if the former employee did not propose to work in or near that district. Such a clause cannot stand, because, as the court put it, it “overprotects” the employer at the expense of a former employee’s right to earn a living. TAX BREAKS FOR COLLEGE COSTS Persistently increasing college costs may have joined death and taxes as inevitable facts of life. Still, it is usually possible to soften the blow of escalating costs of higher education by taking advantage of an assortment of income tax breaks provided by the federal government. The options and their ramifications for your tax bill are not as simple as they might be, so it may be prudent to get some professional advice. Given the large sums of money at stake, you do not want to leave any smart moves unmade for lack of information and timely advice. American Opportunity Tax Credit This year, the American Opportunity Tax Credit effectively replaces the Hope Scholarship Credit. Taxpayers spending at least $2,000 for tuition, fees, books, and materials for higher education can save $2,000 in taxes with a dollar for dollar credit. Expenses over $2,000 bring an additional tax credit of 25 cents on the dollar, and, if expenses reach $4,000, there is a maximum credit of $2,500. The credit is available per student, so that a family with more than one college student can achieve even larger total benefits. Up to 40% of the American Opportunity Tax Credit is refundable, so that some of the tax credit may be received as a tax refund if the credit for which the taxpayer qualifies exceeds his or her income tax liability. This credit phases out for taxpayers with a modified adjusted gross income between $80,000 and $90,000 ($160,000 and $180,000 for married couples filing jointly). Lifetime Learning Credit While the American Opportunity Tax Credit is limited to the first four years of education after high school, the Lifetime Learning Credit, as the name suggests, may be claimed for any year of higher education, such as years spent in graduate or professional schools. Another distinction between the two credits is that the Lifetime Learning Credit is available for any course of study relating to job skills at an accredited school, whereas the American Opportunity Tax Credit requires that the student be enrolled at least on a half time basis. The phaseout income ranges are lower than for the American Opportunity Tax Credit, by margins of $30,000 for individuals and $60,000 for married couples filing jointly. Calculated at 20 cents on the dollar, the Lifetime Learning Credit maxes out at $2,000, for $10,000 in tuition and related expenses. It is not refundable. Unlike the American Opportunity Tax Credit, which is determined per student, the Lifetime Learning Credit is calculated per taxpayer, so any one taxpayer has the above maximum no matter how many individuals in a family are studying at the postsecondary level. A taxpayer may not use both credits for the same student in the same year, but different credits may be used for different students’ expenses in the same year. Tuition and Fees Deduction A tax credit, by shaving off the actual tax bill, does more for a taxpayer’s bottom line than a deduction, which only reduces the income on which the tax will be imposed. Still, there is a third option in the form of a tax deduction for tuition and related fees, although it cannot be used in the same year for the same student as either of the tax credits previously described. This deduction, which is available even for taxpayers who do not itemize deductions, can be as large as $4,000 for modified adjusted gross incomes up to $65,000 ($130,000 for married couples filing jointly). The deduction is cut in half for even one dollar above those incomes, and disappears altogether when the income levels top $80,000 ($160,000 for married couples filing jointly). Another limitation on this deduction is that it cannot be claimed for expenses paid with money from a Section 529 plan or withdrawals from a Coverdell Education Savings Account. LENDER MUST RETURN DEBTOR’S VEHICLE Theodore entered into an installment contract with a corporate creditor for the purchase of a new automobile. A few years later, he defaulted on his installment payments, and the creditor repossessed the vehicle. Not long after that, Theodore filed for bankruptcy in federal bankruptcy court. Needing his car to commute to work, he requested that the creditor return the vehicle to his bankruptcy estate. When the creditor refused to return the vehicle, absent what it deemed “adequate protection” of its interests, Theodore moved for sanctions under a Bankruptcy Code provision, claiming that the creditor had willfully violated the automatic “stay” provision in the Bankruptcy Code. The stay provision forbids a creditor from committing any act to obtain possession of property from the bankruptcy estate, or to “exercise control” over the property of the estate, once the debtor has filed for bankruptcy. In Theodore’s case, the creditor could not be said to have acted to obtain possession of the vehicle after the bankruptcy filing, because it already possessed the car at that point. Thus, one issue was whether it could be said to have “exercised control” over the vehicle by simply keeping it and refusing to return it to the debtor, as opposed to selling or doing something else with it. A federal appellate court answered this question in the affirmative. It held that, upon the request of a debtor that has filed for bankruptcy, a creditor must first return an asset in which the debtor has an interest to his or her bankruptcy estate and then, if necessary, seek adequate protection of its interests in the bankruptcy court. To hold that “exercising control” over an asset refers only to selling or otherwise destroying the asset would not be logical, given the central goal of reorganization bankruptcy. That goal is is to gather together all of the debtor’s property in the bankruptcy estate, so that the debtor may rehabilitate his or her credit and pay off his or her debts. This applies to all property, even property (such as Theodore’s car) that is lawfully seized before the filing of a bankruptcy petition. The court essentially ruled that the creditor’s position had put things in the wrong order. Instead of being permitted to hang on to the vehicle until it felt satisfied that its interests would be protected, the creditor had to first return the asset to the bankruptcy estate. Then, if the debtor failed to show that he could adequately protect the creditor’s interests, the bankruptcy court was empowered to condition the right of the estate to keep possession of the asset on the provision of certain specified adequate protections to the creditor. Some other considerations also weighed in favor of placing the onus on the creditor, rather than on Theodore, to seek relief from the court if it believed that its interests were not adequately protected. First, the whole purpose of reorganization bankruptcy, be it corporate or personal, and of the stay in particular, is to allow the debtor to regain his financial foothold and repay his or her creditors. Properly implemented, a stay allows a debtor free use of his or her assets while the court works with both the debtor and the creditors to establish a rehabilitation and repayment plan. In theory at least, these assets generate money that could contribute to paying down the debtor’s obligations. In Theodore’s case, if his car remained in the hands of the creditor, it could hamper him from going to work (or, in other cases, from finding work), which is crucial for getting the funds necessary to pay off his debts. Second, allowing a creditor to maintain possession of an asset until it decides on its own that adequate protection is in place, or until the debtor moves for the asset’s return, gives the creditor an unfair bargaining advantage over other secured creditors. Finally, requiring the debtor, rather than the creditor, to bear the costs of seeking court relief hurts not only the debtor but all of the debtor’s other creditors by draining the value of the bankruptcy estate. The court reasoned that it makes more sense for all creditors to move before the court in a consolidated proceeding to have their assets adequately protected than for a debtor to file multiple motions piecemeal in an attempt to recover assets that may be scattered among many creditors. MEDICAID BENEFITS AND SPECIAL NEEDS TRUSTS A permanently disabled Medicaid recipient residing in a nursing home challenged an informal rule issued by the federal Department of Health and Human Services which requires that, for purposes of determining the benefits due to a Medicaid eligible individual, states must consider income placed in a Special Needs Trust for that individual’s benefit. (Medicaid provides joint federal and state funding of medical care for individuals who cannot afford to pay their own medical costs.) The challenged rule effectively prevents Medicaid recipients from using Special Needs Trusts to shelter their monthly Social Security Disability Insurance (SSDI) income from certain Medicaid determinations. In the case before the court, the plaintiff’s legal guardian had created a Special Needs Trust on the plaintiff’s behalf and had been depositing into it the plaintiff’s monthly SSDI benefits, minus some income deductions that were not at issue. The end result of applying the challenged agency rule is that income placed in a Special Needs Trust is not considered in making the first determination of eligibility for Medicaid, but is considered in making the second determination of the extent of benefits to which an eligible individual is entitled. Relying on the agency rule, appropriate officials may count the income that an institutionalized individual places in a Special Needs Trust when determining how much of the individual’s income he or she must contribute to the cost of his or her care. In his class action lawsuit, the Medicaid recipient, on his behalf and that of similarly situated persons, unsuccessfully argued that the rule conflicts with the express language of a part of the Medicaid laws. A federal appeals court rejected the plaintiff’s reading of the pertinent statute, instead concluding that Congress did not speak to the precise question presented by his claim. Under accepted principles of administrative law, this meant that the federal agency was free to “fill the gap” left by Congress. When it did so, that was an appropriate exercise of the agency’s authority, to which the court deferred. GOLFER CAN’T BE SUED FOR ERRANT SHOT Azad and Anoop were friends and frequent golf partners. The friendship was no doubt strained when they became adversaries in litigation arising from an injury to Azad during a golf outing. A shot struck by Anoop hit Azad in the eye, causing a serious injury. There was a factual dispute as to whether, when he saw his wayward shot heading for Azad, Anoop yelled “fore” or some other warning, as golf etiquette would dictate. Anoop said he did call out something, while Azad and another witness said they heard no warning at all. In the end, whether or not a verbal warning had occurred made little difference in the case, because the court ruled that Anoop had no legal duty to give such a warning under the circumstances. Anoop did not owe his fellow golfer a duty to give a warning about a shot, where Azad was out ahead of Anoop but at least 50 degrees away from the intended line of flight. Some courts have spoken of a duty to warn those within the “foreseeable danger zone” of a golf shot, but even they recognize that, at some point, the distance and angle are great enough to take the injured person out of the danger zone. Ironically, you could say that the worse the shot (and, thus, the more unexpected the path that the ball takes), the less likely it is that there could be a duty to warn. An even more basic flaw in the lawsuit stemmed from the court’s conclusion that, from the time he stepped onto the first tee, Azad had assumed the commonly appreciated risks of playing golf, one of which is that golfers hit lots of misdirected shots. The risks that participants in sporting or recreational activities are deemed to have consented to are those which are inherent in participation in the sport. Relieving a participant from liability furthers a policy of facilitating free and vigorous participation in sporting and recreational activities. While Azad’s case was unsuccessful, this should not be taken to mean that a golf course is lawless terrain, where golfers can do whatever they please with impunity. Reckless or intentional conduct, or concealed or unreasonably increased risks, can still result in liability for injuries, but hitting a lousy shot and not yelling “fore” is not enough to make a duffer pay damages to another golfer unlucky enough to be in the line of fire.

Blocked mobile phones, on the other hand, are usually only sold by the mobile operator for use in their network. You often get them at reduced prices, and the freight forwarder makes the difference by putting a strain on you over time for the service you offer. This is one of the reasons why contracts exist and why unlocked phones are so much more what is meid expensive than blocked phones. The main reason why IMEI numbers are important is their ability to track and secure lost or stolen phones. With every connection that your phone establishes, your IMEI number will be passed on to the provider. First, it helps to find the phone and connect it to local connections so you can connect to a nearby tower. This should not happen because every mobile phone should have a unique device identifier. I think one of the two was usually older and more inactive units, BUT I’ve seen two different Android smartphones that had the same IMEI / MEID before. The IMEI number clearly identifies a mobile device. It is separated from the SIM card or the UICC number, which is linked to a replaceable card on the device. However, this device cannot be used in our network. Unfortunately, this device cannot be used in the T-Mobile network. Update to a device that can access our most powerful signal, Extended Range LTE . Write the number because you cannot copy it and paste it from your phone screen. Most phones tell you when the number is displayed when it is an IMEI or MEID number. If your phone does not do this, you can check which number it is by checking which provider you are using. GSM networks such as AT & T and T-Mobile use IMEI numbers. CDMA networks such as Sprint, Verizon and US Cellular use MEID numbers After all, creating a new Gmail account is not that difficult.

As a rule, the human mind is not as complex as the mind of the human being. So it can’t be as simple as this: Think of it as the mind of the human being. In other words, people who are in a particular part of their lives are different from others in the rest of the world. Psychocognition, though, is often used by the mind to understand the experience. Psychocognition is actually one of the first words to be learned out of the brain. It is the ability to make a particular mental image, figure out what it is that it is about, and how that image might be used to build a certain mental state. Mental conditioning is the skill to be able to think differently, mentally interpret and process the mind of a person. In our case, we have a young woman who has lost her memory and is looking for clues about her past. She then learns the technique of mental conditioning and is made to take drugs that are designed to make her less perceptive and more susceptible to the mind control of the people around her. This involves a lot of psychological warfare, including the person being made to think they are being tortured. This is not a new technique, but in our case it has taken on a new meaning. The mental conditioning process involved is essentially the same as the “cognitive dissonance” you get in those “mind control experiments” that are used for a variety of psychological research. It is an interesting way of thinking about how human beings think and how they can be influenced by the mind. There is a lot of research that suggests that we are influenced by our own thoughts and emotions in a way that is often unconscious, but can be very powerful. In that sense, we are subconsciously conditioning our thoughts and emotions to cause us to act in certain ways. While, our society is geared toward this conscious mind-manipulation, and we are all extremely aware of it, we aren’t completely aware of it in our actions. There have been many studies on the topic of mental conditioning. One of the most well known is called the Hare and Hare’s study. In this study, a psychologist put a group of volunteers in a room and then asked them to think about a certain topic for 30 minutes. After that, they were told to think about the same topic for another 30 minutes but without any external influence. If you think the room was empty, it definitely wasn’t. In fact, the volunteers were asked to think about certain topics in either a positive or negative light for 30 minutes before the experiment. Some of the volunteers reported that their brains were being conditioned to think that things were more positive. Others were told that their brains were being conditioned to think that things were more painful. The results were interesting. One volunteer was told that if it was more positive than negative, they would have less trouble relating to the subjects. On average, volunteers were more positive by about.4 points on the Likert scale. The more positive they felt, the more they related to the subject. I was thinking of this a bit closer to my own life when it came to my own conditioning. I had a therapist for a while, and we were always talking about the way that I would act and react in certain situations. At the end of a session, I told her I had a headache because my brain was being conditioned to act more like a victim. Like this post?

If you want to know where the rest of the country will be 20 years from now, people should look at California today. Stories are starting to appear in the media that Los Angeles Mayor Eric Garcetti might run for president. People say he’s very smart, he does his homework and he knows where he wants to go. He’s also fluent in Spanish, he joined the Navy Reserves and he is part Mexican, part Italian and part Jewish. That’s a lot of boxes he can check. He’s also viewed as calm, deliberative and possibly a tad cautious. I have a feeling that by 2020 those qualities will be in very much in demand. Of course, California is a big state and offers much diversity. There’s talk that Oprah Winfrey, who lives in Montecito, might run. She can go toe-to-toe with Trump when it comes to celebrity status, camera presence, name recognition and money made. Unlike Trump, she started with nothing, she’s female and she’s black. So she gets to check some boxes, too. People say Governor Jerry Brown will be too old to run for president. He's now 79. He still seems as sharp as ever, maybe even sharper — because at his age, he doesn’t much care what people think of him. That’s very liberating. He can say what he thinks — and he often does. Brown took the lead on environmental and alternative energy issues long before most took all this seriously. He has made cap and trade work and I don’t see why it wouldn’t work elsewhere. He has the courage to raise taxes when necessary and invest in infrastructure — things we all know we need. And, unlike many Democrats, Brown is very tight-fisted. He inherited a terrible deficit and will leave a nice surplus in place when he retires in January of 2019. Republicans should love the guy if fiscal responsibility is something they still value. It’s getting harder and harder to tell these days if that's still the case. Benjamin Franklin was 81 while attending the Constitutional Convention of 1787. I think it’s time we made it official: 80 is the new 60! Kamala Harris gets some buzz, as do Tom Steyer and Mark Zuckerberg. Gavin Newsom is running for governor, but he's still young — just 50. He gives a good speech. California gave us Richard Nixon and Ronald Reagan. Many think, had it not been for Watergate, Nixon would be viewed as a very pragmatic centrist. By today's standards, Ronald Reagan was a real moderate, too. He shared cocktails with Tip O'Neill at the end of the day; the former actor was a real charmer. Arnold Schwarzenegger wanted to run, but because he was born in Austria, he couldn't. California offers much to the national conversation. Jerry Brown likes to say if you want to know where the rest of the country will be 20 years from now, people should look at California today. I hope he keeps nudging us a while longer.

Advantages and Disadvantages of UHT Treated Milk: Ultra-High Temperature treatment of milk results in several changes, yes, the arguments flare-up.

Barnes didn’t turn on the light as he entered the apartment he was temporarily sharing with Steve. He didn’t have to since the light over the stove was on, illuminating the kitchen and several cooling racks of pastries. The sink was piled with dirty dishes – apparently waking up in the future with conveniences like a dishwasher still had not converted Steve Rogers into anything resembling tidy. Barnes sighed and stepped up to the counter, shoving up his sleeves. He wouldn’t be able to sleep for a few hours, so he might as well take care of the mess. Across the wide island, seated in the living area, was his best friend. Steve had a sketchbook open on his lap, but he was staring out the huge windows at the city lights. “Was this celebratory baking or consolation baking?” Steve half jumped out of his chair and Barnes raised an eyebrow. They both had better than normal hearing thanks to the serum; Steve must have been so deep in his thoughts he was half-way to China. “Oh, hey, Buck. Ah, both, maybe.” He ran a hand through his hair and tossed his drawing materials onto the coffee table. The pencil rolled off the edge and Steve ignored it as he stood and moved to a bar stool. Barnes tried to remind himself to look for the damn thing before one of Stark’s robots tried to vacuum it up. Pencil lead probably wasn’t good for the little contraptions. How any man had gone through the army and come out bordering on slob was a mystery to Barnes. At least Steve made his bed in the morning now – but that was where his housekeeping skills ended. “Gotta say, pal. If you’re not sure if the date was a success, that’s kind of a problem.” He rinsed bowls and spatulas and kept one eye on Steve. The punk didn’t look sad, but he was definitely concentrating suspiciously hard for someone who had spent the evening snuggled up with a soft thing like Darcy Lewis. “Success, yeah, it was that.” Finally, a smile turned his mouth. As if a dam had broken, happiness washed over Steve’s face. “She’s planning the next date.” “So? Why the dark brooding? Sounds like a good thing.” “Yeah.” Christ. Steve looked half in love all ready. The last time Barnes had seen him so wrapped up in a dame had been in 1940 and that gal had knocked out Steve’s heart like she was Joe Louis at Yankee Stadium. In comparison, his feelings for Peggy Carter had been all pre-match hype. “It’s just…” Barnes finished with the dishes and began wiping down the counter while he waited for Steve to get out with it. “You ever turn a girl down, Buck? Other than that lady at Melson’s – the one with the-” Barnes snorted, the memory coming back to him grainy, but still there. “With the horse face? Not that I recall, but I suppose that doesn’t mean much. You’d know better than me.” He paused, taking in the way Steve was rubbing at his pant leg, mouth smiling but shoulders tensed. “You ever turn a girl down, Steve?” “Loads.” His face twisted, and Barnes could read that expression well. Disgust, guilt, and maybe a little bit of second-guessing. “When I was on tour…well, thank god for the chorus girls. Three of ‘em were married to guys overseas and they took it as a real personal insult if some gal tried to sneak into my dressing room.” Barnes couldn’t help it, he laughed. All those years trying to set up his friend, working so hard to find the right kind of girl for Stevie and listening to his weak little romantic heart thrum at the idea of falling in love and having a family, all that and as soon as the ladies would give him a second look he was beating them off with a stick. “Ain’t funny, jerk. Those women were vicious. There was one lady – in Missouri, I think – she pretended to be working at the theater, lead me to a storage room, locked the door and dropped her dress.” Barnes was gasping for air, imagining poor Steve faced with a naked, willing woman but too proper to do anything about it without buying her dinner first. “Just about climbed up me trying for a kiss. When I said no she bit me – drew blood!” “Not so bad,” Barnes managed to force out the words past his chuckles, “with the right lady.” Steve was muttering and shaking his head, but he was still smiling, the back of his neck pink. “I take it what has you concerned is a little more recent that your USO days?” “I just don’t want to – Sharon was pretty forward. Which is fine, good to know what a lady wants.” Barnes made a noise of agreement and Steve pushed on. “But it was…well, difficult to feel comfortable about that when you’re comparing her to someone else, right?” “I’ve dated sisters.” Barnes stopped in surprise, verifying in his own head that the words which had popped out of his mouth were actual fact. Equally pleased and perturbed by his own apparent charm, he continued, “but never aunt and niece. I could see where that might get a bit…dicey.” He leaned back against the counter and folded his arms over his chest. It was nice to be talking about Steve’s problems for a change. Problems that would be fairly easy to solve, if the conversation was going where he thought it was. “I really like her, Buck.” It took everything Barnes had not to roll his eyes and parrot Sam with a duh, idiot. “I know things are different now, more casual, but she’s important and I don’t want her to think that I just…and it’s been a while. A long while.” “How long we talkin’? And let’s say before Sharon, how long?” Steve mumbled, and Bucky heard, but there was something to be said for inflicting embarrassment on a friend. “What was that?” “You heard me, jackass.” Just to string Steve out, he changed the subject. “What kind of fruit in these?” Barnes pointed to the pastries. “Raspberry on your left. Sausage and green apple on your right. You gonna say anything helpful, or just eat my hard work and laugh at me?” “I ain’t known her long,” the burr of Brooklyn tumbled from his lips and it felt right to Barnes, “but I’d guess Darcy is the type to tell you what she wants pretty clear. And to ‘ppreciate you doing the same. Nothin’ wrong with fessin’ up and still havin’ to wait a while, if that’s the way it goes. And she seems to have a thing for mooks with their feet in their gob.” He picked up a breakfast pastry and took a bite. It was still hot inside, almost too hot, and steam rose from the flaky crust. The smell of sweet sausage and tart apples was strong. Steve blew out a long breath, and with it a lot of tension. “How was your night?” “Watched a couple of Li movies with Wilson and Vision. And Stark.” “Building’s still standing,” Steve noted. “Hm. Been called worse names by better looking faces. Maybe none I deserved as much.” “I have it on good authority that Tony doesn’t know any other way. It’s how he makes friends.” “Not looking to be his friend.” Barnes grabbed a second pastry, Steve really did know his way around the kitchen. “Just don’t want it to tear apart your team.” “Not just my team, Buck.” Barnes stepped out of the way while Steve packaged up all the food. He was contemplating a glass of milk as Steve said goodnight and a memory clicked into place. “1941? Bethany O’Malley.” She was a little fast and a lot friendly. He remembered the double date, two blondes but not the color of their eyes or dresses. Bethany’s friend faked a stomach ache within fifteen minutes of seeing Steve. He remembered Bethany confidently grabbing both men by the arms and taking the night by storm. He remembered she asked herself up for coffee, and while he had his hand tangled in her garters she had whispered a dirty suggestion in his ear and then called out for Steve. The skinny punk had crashed into the bedroom looking like he was expecting a fire. When met with a half-naked woman he had turned bright red. Her request of him had just about started an actual fire on his cheeks. “Oh, God!” Barnes laughed. He dropped the milk onto the counter, hearing the plastic crack but he didn’t care. He’d clean it up later. “Oh God! You had an asthma attack! While she was-”

Philosophy of the mind It is complex to debate philosophically about consciousness and qualia. Some philosophers believe in qualia while others reject the notion. The definition of qualia depends on philosophical and neurophysiological presuppositions. Regardless of your position, the debate is worth reading, as it raises many deep questions in the philosophy of mind. Some materialists reject the existence and some others acknowledge it, raising difficult questions about consciousness. But if you believe in qualia, this is a difficult argument, and many philosophers believe that the material is not the mental, thus making the distinction between physical and mental impossible. Some philosophers disapprove of this thesis and say that it is impossible to examine the internal structure of qualia. However, the cognitive system can possess information about qualia that cannot be communicated to other systems. This theory could lead to the understanding of qualia’s private nature. This view has a problem philosophically because there isn’t consensus about what constitutes a proper definition of qualia. Although there is no one theory that can explain all aspects of the mind, many theories exist. The philosophical debate over the existence of qualia is incredibly complex and complicated. There are many philosophers who have different opinions on the topic. Some disagree about how qualia should be defined. Others don’t know what to do. The underlying problem is that the term is used so loosely that it is often difficult to explain to another person. This fundamental problem is in philosophy. This is despite the numerous debates over qualia. It is an important aspect in the determination of the mind’s definition. Ingredients Qualia Mind contains several ingredients that are important for the production of neurotransmitters. A key ingredient is the amino acid L-Carnitine. This can help improve memory and concentration. Another ingredient is Bacopa Monnieri extract, which has been used for centuries in traditional medicine for snake bites. This extract has mood-enhancing and anti-oxidant properties. You will also experience a decrease in stress. The product also contains n-acetyl-tyrosine, a molecule that is found naturally in the body. Qualia Mind’s ingredient list is extensive and long. There are many components in Qualia Mind that may enhance cognitive function. The product contains several ingredients that have been tested for their safety and bioavailability. These ingredients have proven to improve cognition. Clinical studies have shown that each ingredient supports cognitive health. It also includes a number of nutrients essential for brain health. Qualia Mind’s claims have been supported by science, and Qualia Mind is now widely recognized as an effective supplement. In addition to vitamins and minerals, Qualia Mind contains antioxidants. Its formula contains Vitamin C, which can enhance the brain’s defenses and protect it from free radicals. Other ingredients in Qualia Mind include Theobromine, Coleus forskohlii, N-Acetyl-L-Tyrosine, and Pterostilbene bound to Caffeine. It also contains organic rice concentrate, silicon dioxide, and vegetable cellulose. Side effects Qualia Mind is a brain-boosting supplement made by Neurohacker Collective, a reputable company in the nootropic space. To ensure safety, all ingredients are subject to safety testing and quality control. This company exceeds FDA requirements in quality control and testing. GMP/ISO 9000-certified facilities are used to manufacture the product. This certification indicates that the company’s quality control procedures and product safety are the best in the industry.

It lies along local roads off Interstate 10 and seventeen miles west of downtown Houston. Its elevation is 102 feet (31 m), and it is located at 29°47′4″N 95°41′6″W / 29.78444°N 95.68500°W / 29.78444; -95.68500 (29.7843955, -95.6849469). Barker was originally built along the Missouri–Kansas–Texas Railroad, which built through the area in 1895; the community was named for Ed Barker, a railroad contractor. The community’s first postmaster was appointed in 1898. Although Barker was originally an agricultural community, the area is now primarily residential.

Almost two months has passed since the Anime Expo Summer 2022. (It’s late I know I’m sorry). Many already want 2023 to happen, while others anticipate the mini-convention happening in November. I would like to give my thoughts and anticipations for the future. While I did initially go to Anime Expo expecting a slow year, which in fact, it was. The previous two years were solely online due to the world events that have occurred during the past two years. First of all, I did not expect a high number of attendees this year. I had the debate of it being slightly less because of health concerns and the lack of Japanese guests and official events. However, I neglect the fact that Anime’s popularity also exploded in the past few years and a lack of estimation as I do not attend conventions besides Anime Expo. Of course, it also created some issues, especially in lines and areas where nobody could move in the crowd. Fortunately, I didn’t experience much of the cluttered masses of people. However, I always wondered if AX actually advertised their other entrances. Besides the South and West main entrance, there’s the West side entrance. I entered through there all 4 days and didn’t wait as much as I thought I would. I waited about 30 minutes to get in, and the other days, despite arriving later than usual (~9:50 am), there was practically little to no line. I also talked to a few friends on discord, and they mentioned some hidden entrances you could get in, but others said it was for premier fans only. One of those entrances is the backside garage line behind the convention center at West Hall. I remember going there and was told it was for premier fans only. But there’s no indication that the line is only for premier fans. In addition, the line isn’t even advertised on the map they distributed. Either I missed crucial information, or it was not communicated enough among staff and volunteers Day 2 Linecon (before opening) Day 2 Linecon Another big concern is the Artist Alley, one of the three Anime Expo main attractions located below the Exhibit Hall in the South Hall. In addition to occasionally having too many attendees at once, there was a massive accumulation of CO2 in the area. With a lack of proper ventilation, it poses an enormous issue. With the exhibit hall being a heavy attraction, one main concern lies in the bottom left corner of the exhibit hall, specifically the MiHoYo and Yostar booths. With both booths being very popular yet very close to each other, I believe it’s an oversight or an underestimation of how many attendees would actually visit both booths. Both booths became very crowded throughout the entirety of Anime Expo which made visiting either and nearby booths a challenge. While these are the best images I had at the timethe mihoyo and the yostar booth were very crowded There is usually some staff telling the attendees to keep moving. Most likely to prevent some sort of fire hazard Of course, I don’t want to make this post primarily negative. Overall, I still did enjoy the general experience at the Anime Expo. I especially enjoyed the cosplay meetups. From what I’ve seen, the cosplay looks pretty diverse. I’ve seen some popular ones, such as Genshin, Demon Slayer, Chainsaw Man, and Spy x Family. I don’t believe there was one dominant franchise, which made the general experience much more refreshing. (This is normally where I post some cosplay pictures, but I feel too lazy as a lot of them I took are good. Plus, not sure why videos don’t work) Out of nowhere, Anime Expo announced a lite convention in Ontario, California. While it is an interesting move, we don’t know anything about it at the time of writing other than it being a two-day convention on November 12 and 13. While I plan on attending this event, I hope it will be a positive experience. Overall, Anime Expo 2022 was a slow year in terms of overall activities. I didn’t expect Anime Expo to run the event perfectly after being unable to do so for the past 2 years. Hopefully, Anime Expo will learn from these mistakes and make next year a more enjoyable experience.

South Jersey Times — Dog owners now have a place to bring their pets to run and play as the Gloucester County-Logan Township Dog Park was officially opened Wednesday. The idea for a dog park in the county has been around for more than eight years, according to State Senate President and former county Freeholder Director Stephen Sweeney. “I want to thank the freeholders for following through on this,” he said before the ribbon was cut opening the park to county residents. “This is a commitment to the dog owners in this community. There really is a need and a demand for this in Gloucester County.” The 2.5-acre park includes two fenced in sections — one for small dogs less than 25 pounds and one for larger dogs — as well as a water fountain, two gazebos, four dog waste stations and eight benches. A cooperative project between the county and Logan Township, the dog park is located on green acres land and utilized donated fencing, recycled ground asphalt for the parking lot and benches built by students at the Gloucester County Institute of Technology. It’s total cost to the county was approximately $10,000. “Logan Township had the land available and this is a perfect fit,” County Freeholder and Logan Township Administrator Lyman Barnes said. Mark Pianin, a Woodbury resident, brought Stella, his three year old adopted chihuahua, to the park’s opening day to let her run around. “I love it,” he said. “I don’t have a fenced in yard so it’s wonderful that on our day off we can come here and play.” Pets are barred from the county’s other parks, so the new dog park provides a space that individuals can bring their furry friends to run. Dogs must have current rabies shots and all other vaccinations required by the state. Dogs must wear a collar displaying a valid license to be at the park. A complete list of rules is posted at the park and at www.dreamparknj.com.

Besides the obvious financial benefits, sporting events can raise the city’s profile in the global arena. However, cities that host sports events can also suffer from the ‘Host City Curse’. Many have raised taxes to make up for the deficits caused by the events, and unanticipated costs have contributed to decades of debt in some places. Health benefits Attendance at sporting events is associated with improved health according to a recent study. These findings suggest that participation in sporting events improves one’s well-being and can have significant implications for public health practice and policy. Furthermore, attending sports events can promote a more positive social environment and help to improve one’s self-esteem. The findings of this study suggest that sport 스포츠중계사이트 spectatorship promotes self-rated health, and the correlation between self-rated health and sporting event attendance is strong. However, future research needs to consider the other variables that may affect health and control for them. The aim of future studies should be to test the potential health benefits of attending sporting events. While attending sports events increases the chances of physical activity, many people are concerned that it can interfere with an exercise regime. Moreover, there is a connection between watching sports and eating. Many sporting events have concessions with unhealthy foods and drinks. Impact on local businesses Sports events are not just entertainment, but also an important revenue generator for the host community. Hotel rooms filled with fans and athletes generate valuable hotel tax revenue. Restaurants and other businesses also benefit from increased foot traffic. Whether the event is for a professional team or a local high school, the economic impact of sporting events can be substantial. These events can boost the local economy and increase morale. Economic impact studies are often based on a specific model, such as RIMS. This model uses input-output tables that go down to the country level to calculate the overall economic impact of sporting events. There are also simple formulas that can be used to calculate the economic impact of sport events. Major sporting events can also bring in hundreds of customers. This can boost sales, especially in January and February. Moreover, many sporting events are televised, which pulls in hundreds of new customers. The economic impact of sporting events on local businesses is estimated to be PS440 million in the UK. Impact on city image Hosting sport events is a great way to increase city image perceptions and place attachment among local residents. However, hosting events in a city with a negative image can lead to a different perception. This study aims to identify the factors that affect the image of a city and the potential impact they can have on residents. Organizers of sporting events should consider the long-term effects of these events on cities. Organizers of these events should consider the costs and benefits of the events for the community. These events are a great way to improve community image and self-esteem. They also help attract tourists and visitors to local attractions. His broadcasting career soon after, he became an understudy to Graham McNamee, and in moved to the Columbia Broadcasting System, where he was the head of sports and a chief sportscaster. He was also an innovator in radio, developing daily features for listeners. He eventually left CBS in 1948 and went to work for WHN in New York. Born in Washington, DC, on July 10, 1888. He is best known for his call of Babe Ruth’s home run during the 1932 World Series. The legendary announcer auditioned for the position while he was going to court and was hired on the spot. Conclusion A successful event will promote a city’s image, generating greater tourism, inward investment, and a stronger economy. Organizing an event for a prestigious sport will attract international attention, which will help improve city image and attract foreign investors.

Government on Monday ruled out any extension of the July 14 deadline for Conditional Access System in the four metros, even as Multi System Operators assured there would be no shortage of set-top boxes. Information and Broadcasting Minister Ravi Shankar Prasad told a delegation of MSOs that those who oppose CAS or spread disinformation about it, must know that ultimately it is in their interest also, an official release said. The MSOs said they have already ordered a "more than sufficient quantity of set-top boxes, required to access pay channels once the CAS is in place. They alleged that some broadcasters were not coming clean to declare their rates and enter into agreements with MSOs which was leading to "confusion". They said the sooner the rates of pay channels are announced by the broadcasters, the smoother would be the changeover to the CAS. © Copyright 2003 PTI. All rights reserved.

POTTSVILLE, Pa. - Penn State Hazleton opened Penn State University Athletic Conference play with a 67-46 win over rival Penn State Schuylkill in a women's basketball game on Thursday night at Martz Hall in Pottsville, Pa. Freshman Jacqlyn Siva-Harrison (Monmouth Junction, NJ) recorded her first career double-double, pitching in 17 points and 10 rebounds for the Lady Lions (5-1, 1-0 PSUAC). Harrison also added four assists. Sophomore Stephanie Guevara (North Brunswick, NJ) joined Harrison with a double-double, including a 13 points and 10 rebounds. Schuylkill (2-1, 1-1 PSUAC) jumped out to an early lead, holding a six point advantage only four minutes into the game. Hazleton answered to take a 28-20 lead at halftime, and junior Alexis Daly (Wyalusing, Pa.) kept the Lions at bay with team-high 19 points. Madison Blasko led Schuylkill, coming off the bench to score 19 points. Teammate Tessa Dolce grabbed a game-high 13 rebounds, although Hazleton outrebounded the Lions 39-36. The Lady Lions also held the advantage in points off turnovers, finishing with 17 points off of 24 Schuylkill giveaways. Hazleton sophomore's Kyana Willoughby (Union City, NJ) and Deidra Ciavaralla (Mountain Top, Pa.) each dished out four assists for Hazleton, who totaled 16 on the night as a team. Hazleton returns to the road on Friday, November 21 when they travel to Penn State York for a 6:00 p.m. tip-off.

My daughter is quite the second-hand shopper. She and I can go down the same store isle yet she will come out with several great things, and I come out empty handed. I have discovered that when you go on one of these second-hand shopping trips do so with something in mind and you will be successful. So with that said I want to share a story of one of my daughters shopping finds. Among the items she brought home from one such second-hand shopping trip was this skirt. The skirt before alterations As you see it is a newer style skirt with sequins on the front. It was a size 10 and she wears a size 8 or smaller. Even though she is pregnant she figured she could get away with wearing it with a longer shirt over the top. (She is one of those that doesn’t get very big during her pregnancies). I picked up the skirt and was admiring it. I noticed it looked quite small. It was then that we both realized that it was a child’s size 10, not an adult size 10. We both laughed. That is what can happen when shopping second-hand stores. Often time you don’t try them on or you get them home and something is wrong with them. But that is okay, because when you shop these kinds of stores you have to expect such things will occur. So, what does one do with an under-sized skirt. Re-donate it or alter it. My daughter decided to alter it for her daughter that is a child size 6x. Well, from a 10 to a 6 is quite a big size difference, but because of the style of this skirt it would not be hard to alter. So we decided to fix it. I am going to show you how easy it is to alter this cute little skirt: The skirt during the alteration process 1. First I cut off the waist band and cut the side seams off, leaving ¼ inch seam allowance. (I tried the skirt on the child inside out and pinned parallel to the seam and got a good fit. I also figured out how much to cut off of the top). 2. I sewed the sides together, and at this point you can zig zag or surge the edges if you would like. 3. Next I cut out a new waist band. I sewed elastic to the back, sewed the elastic waist band to the skirt, and then sewed the front waist band to the skirt. 4. Put in elastic. At this point I tried it on the child. You can shorten a little if needed, which is what I did. 5. Taa… daa… a skirt finished, not for the daughter, but for the grand daughter. I hope this helps you see that altering a garment can be relatively simple, and you might need to try it the next time your second-hand shopping finds you with an item that doesn’t fit just how you thought it might. Alterations complete – the finished skirt!

The 161st Mississippi State Fair has announced dates for their 2020 event – October 7-18 – and safety protocols due to COVID-19. See the Fair Fun Guide for detailed information Commissioner of Agriculture and Commerce Andy Gipson said his office will continue to monitor the situation closely and utilize the guidance of the Mississippi State Department of Health and CDC. “Multitudes” of hand sanitation stations will be provided throughout the Fairgrounds and high touch areas and surfaces will be routinely sanitized as well. All gates into the Fairgrounds will be equipped with one or more people with digital devices to account for visitors as they come and go to ensure the 200-people-per acre capacity is not violated. Entrance will be denied if capacity is met. With a state mask mandate expiring last week, Gipson said wearing a mask is now “a personal decision” (the fairgrounds is considered state property and does not fall under the City of Jackson’s mask mandate that is still firmly in place). The footprint of the Fair will be expanded so lines can be guided out of the Midway walking area to reduce congestion; lines will have six-foot markers to demonstrate social distancing; and there will also be a reduction in the quantity of vendors. Outdoor music will be properly spaced to achieve social distance best practices; indoor events will be limited to 25 percent of occupancy; and livestock barns will be limited to access only by participants, family, and personnel engaged in the livestock shows. The traditional “Senior American Day” program which features entertainment, health resources, medical screenings, and additional features for elderly Mississippians will not be held this year. Instead, an “All American Day” program of patriotic music and programing – which will also be live streamed for those at home who cannot attend – will take its place. “The CDC advises that people of any age who have serious underlying medical conditions may be higher risk for severe illness from Coronavirus,” Gipson noted. “Guests should evaluate their own risk in determining whether to attend. By coming to the Fair, you acknowledge and agree that you assume these inherent risks associated with attendance.” The fair features 105 acres of music and family fun on a mile-long midway including rides, games and live entertainment. ADDITIONAL ACTIVITIES AND EVENTS TO NOTE: ▪ First Responders Appreciation Day will be held on Wednesday, October 7, and as a special thank you, the Mississippi Fairgrounds will be offering free admission to all law enforcement officers, first responders, firefighters, healthcare workers and medical professionals. Identification will be required at the gate. ▪ For the first time ever, the Fairgrounds will host the Genuine MS® Store, which will be open to the public and exhibit a variety of Genuine MS® items for purchase. ▪ Musical acts performing on the Budweiser Stage located on the Midway include Mustache the Band, Roots and Boots 90’s Electric Throwdown with Sammy Kershaw, Aaron Tippin and Collin Raye, Epic Funk Brass Band, Dirt Road Cadillac, Paul Porter and the Christianaires, U.S., Great White/Slaughter, Big Blues Explosion, Sean Kingston, Southern Komfort Brass Band, 601 Live and the Topher Brown Band. In addition, local acts will perform at the State Fair on the Trustmark Stage located on the Midway. All musical entertainment is free with regular fair admission. ▪ The 2020 State Fair will include the annual Horse, Mule and Pony Pulls in the Kirk Fordice Equine Center. The Horse Pull will begin at 11:00 a.m. on Saturday, October 17, with the Mule Pull immediately following. The Pony Pull will begin at 3:00 p.m. on Sunday, October 18. ▪ All American Day will be held on Wednesday, October 14, from 11:00 a.m. to 1:00 p.m. and will include musical entertainment by Jared Vardaman and Ed Meadows, as well as a speech by Commissioner Andy Gipson. As a special thank you to the military for their service, the Mississippi Fairgrounds will be offering free admission on All American Day to any active military. Identification will be required at the gate. ▪ This year, a new feature of the mile-long Midway will be the Timberworks Lumberjack Show featuring axe throwing, underhand and chopping, cross cut and hot sawing along with chainsaw carving. The Lumberjack Shows will take place daily throughout the duration of the Fair. ▪ Daily activities will take place throughout the 105 acres of the Mississippi Fairgrounds Complex. Children, and adults alike, will enjoy the Farm Bureau Petting Zoo Area and Pig Races, the 4-H and FFA Livestock Shows and will be wowed by the circus performers of the Great American Thrill Show brought to you by Clarion Ledger located at the Kid Zone. LOCALiQ’s Fetch-NFish will perform and dozens of vendors and exhibits will be available to the public, including an arts & crafts competition, food preservation, floral exhibits and an antique tractor show.

With the processing of 2020 federal tax returns now underway, the IRS has issued information about the likely timetable for refunds to be issued. Here are some key points to keep in mind: The IRS began processing returns on February 12, 2021 The fastest way to receive your refund is to have your return filed electronically and request the refund by direct deposit to your bank account. The IRS expects about 90% of taxpayers who file electronically with direct deposit to receive their refunds within 21 days, provided there are no problems with their returns. Many taxpayers who file promptly and qualify for the Earned Income Tax Credit (EITC) or the Additional Child Tax Credit (ACTC) will receive their refunds in early March. Those who file paper returns and/or request their refunds by check may experience longer wait times for their refunds. Refunds will also be delayed if the IRS must request additional information from taxpayers due to issues with their returns. As soon as 24 hours after electronically filing your federal return, you may track the status of your refund by using the IRS Where’s My Refund portal, at http://irs.gov/refunds. In many cases, the portal can provide a personalized refund delivery date.

All the engineering and power which go into making a great semi truck doesn’t come cheap. Not many people can afford to buy a semi to work as a freelance trucker, which is why so many people who work in the trucking industry are signed up to work for logistics companies.Brand new big rigs will cost a minimum of around $80,000 but can be much more expensive, up to $200,000 for the top-of-the-range trucks.And that doesn’t even take into consideration the often prohibitively high cost of insurance for truck drivers and the high fuel costs involved in operating an 18-wheeler. Fact #12: Truck Driving Is One Of The Most Dangerous Jobs Driving commercial trucks isn’t just expensive if you decide to go down the freelance route, it is also one of the most dangerous professions out there, regardless of whether the driver is working for themselves or for a larger company. In 2017, 852 truckers lost their lives in road accidents while they were at work. It isn’t just the risk of serious injury from collisions which threaten the health of truckers, their sedentary lifestyle and tendency to eat junk food means that they are also more likely to be obese, and suffer from diabetes, heart disease, and other serious diseases. Fact #13: Takes Two Football Fields For A Semi To Come To A Stop Heavy vehicles aren’t just tricky to handle, they also carry a great deal of forward momentum which makes coming to a sudden halt difficult and dangerous, even with the mandatory ABS brakes rule.A fully-loaded semi truck, weighing in at 80,000 pounds, and traveling at 65mph will take 525 feet to come to a complete stop – that’s the equivalent of the length of two football fields, and twice the distance it takes cars to come to a halt.Drivers should remember that next time they are driving near a semi truck on the highway or interstate, and make sure that they give truckers the room that they need to stop safely. Fact #14: Semi Trucks Are Fitted With Speed Limiters As well as ABS brakes being mandatory on trucks built after 1997, many 18-wheelers are also fitted with speed limiters, which makes it impossible for the drivers to go over the speed limit, even accidentally.These speed limiters are mandatory on trucks in Europe, but are not yet enforced across the US.The domestic trucking industry is in favor of using these limiters, which would stop commercial vehicles going over 65mph, as they have been proven to help keep their drivers and other road users safe, and ensure that truckers don’t get into trouble with the law for speeding. Fact #15: Only 6% Of Truckers Are Women A lot of professions which were traditionally dominated by men are becoming more gender-balanced, but trucking isn’t one of them. Of the 3.5 million truckers working in the US, just 6% of them are women, and this has only increased by 1.5% in the last 15 years. There’s no physical reason why women can’t become truckers – they are perfectly capable of managing even the largest 18-wheelers – and yet the trucking industry is having trouble persuading more women that driving semi trucks is the right career for them. Trucking is a well-paying job, but women still don’t like being away from home for days or weeks at a time. Fact #16: Many Semi Drivers Also Live In Their Trucks The US is a big country, even bigger when you take cross-border journeys to Canada and Mexico into consideration. Driving a truck from the east coast to the west coast could take several days, and drivers need to make sure their journey is as efficient as possible. That means sleeping only when they are legally required to, and keep moving the rest of the time. The best way to save time when it comes to resting up is to sleep in your vehicle at truck stops up and down the country. Modern trucks can actually be quite luxurious, with proper beds, kitchenettes, and even a small bathroom. Fact #17: Why Are They Called Semi Trucks? Considering that semi trucks are so big – up to 61 ft in length for some larger models – “semi” doesn’t seem a very appropriate name for them.Not many people know where the name semi truck comes from, and even some truckers don’t know from where the term actually originates.The name "semi truck" actually comes from the type of trailers these trucks tow all over the country, which are semi-trailers in the sense that they only have wheels at one end, and need to rest on the chassis of the cab unit at the other end before the truck can get underway. Fact #18: Semi Trucks Require Special Driving Skills Many motorists are under the impression that driving a semi truck is just like driving their regular car, only on a larger scale. While there are similarities – both cars and trucks have steering wheels, brakes, and transmission sticks – there are too many differences to allow motorists without the proper training to just jump into the driving seat and start towing loads all over the US. Before you can start work as a trucker, you need to undergo proper training, both in the classroom and behind the wheel with an instructor in tow, and then pass a driving test to get your hands on a commercial driver's license. Fact #19: Responsible For Transporting The Majority Of Goods In US To some people, the idea of transporting goods by semi truck probably seems old-fashioned. A very 20th century way of doing things in this era of electric vehicles and self-driving cars. And yet the logistics industry has simply not been able to find an alternative to semi trucks which works as well or as efficiently. In 2017, trucks transported nearly 70% of domestic freight, as well as the majority of imports from both Canada and Mexico. Truck freight amounted to an impressive $676.2 billion in 2016, with semi trucks and other commercial vehicles transporting a whopping 10 billion tons of freight that year. Fact #20: Semi Trucks Are Gas Guzzlers We may still rely on semi trucks to get goods from A to B, but in some respects, these valuable vehicles are a little out of date.In an era when more and more consumers are turning to hybrids and even electric cars for their own vehicles, semi trucks have continued to unapologetically guzzle gas.Semi trucks run on diesel, which is at least a little better for the environment than gasoline, but their fuel economy figures would make an environmentalist weep. Big rigs make up just 7% of the vehicles on America’s highways, and yet they consume 25% of the country’s oil. Our students' first step toward becoming professional truck drivers is to enroll in a high-quality truck driving school. You will develop skills and learn the techniques needed to become a safe, competent, and productive commercial truck driver with NSTS. Making a new career option in this competitive employment market is a life-changing experience for the majority of people who take the plunge. Join Us Immediately!

Officials at the famed Shedd Aquarium in Chicago are tasking the public with a very important role. Naming a recently rescued otter, one of the institution’s newest members. According to officials at the Shedd Aquarium, two otters were rescued recently when discovered outdoors along the California coast. The two animals were just two weeks old at the time of the rescue. These rescued animals are currently known simply as Otter 929 and Otter 926. These names are temporary, however. Aquarium officials will be naming Otter 926. However, the public is invited to help come up with the perfect monitor for Otter 929. Shedd Aquarium Officials Have an Important Question For the Public … What To Name This Adorable Otter In a recent social media post, the officials at Chicago’s Shedd Aquarium call on the public for help. Asking aquarium goers to help “us name an otter!” “Earlier this month, Shedd welcomed two new female sea otters, Otters 926 and 929, to the aquarium,” notes a message on the Shedd Aquarium’s Instagram page recently. The post notes that the “Shedd’s Animal Care Team is selecting a name for Otter 926. However, officials note, “you get the unique opportunity to help us name Otter 929!” View this post on Instagram A post shared by Shedd Aquarium (@shedd_aquarium) Museum officials then invite the public to check out the museum’s link on the Instagram page to vote for their favorite name. This link takes voters to the aquarium’s website which is currently allowing visitors to vote for one of three names: Sunny, Jade, and Willow. These three names are each reference to locations in California, the state from which the pair was rescued. Sunny stands for Sunset Beach, Jade represents Jade Cove, and Willow is for the Willow Creek Picnic Area and Beach. Are The Shedd Aquarium Officials Taking Suggestions? While the Shedd Aquarium officials have named three suggestions for the public’s choice in otter names, some Insta users wonder if their own suggestions could possibly make the cut. One fan suggests that the aquarium officials choose to name Otter 929 after pop star Halsey. After all, this commenter points out, Halsey has a song called 929! Then, the museum just up the road from the Shedd Aquarium, The Feild Museum tossed in another suggestion as well. “Can we nominate Clam-ila as a name for a future furry friend?” the Feild Museum’s Instagram asks on the post. One commenter found this to be the perfect opportunity to honor the late actor Leslie Jordan who tragically and unexpectedly lost his life earlier this week. “Beverly Leslie in honor of Leslie Jordan!” This, fans of the actor and comedian know well is the name of Jordan’s character on the smash hit NBC sitcom series, Will and Grace.

Many parents of home educated exam candidates are concerned after receiving an email from the Education Authority this morning. The email states that all exams are cancelled and advises parents to contact the relevant Exam Board. It appears that we are on our own. We understand the complexities of these times but we believe that the EA is in a position to offer information and support to those children who are affected by this, and that the EA should not wash their hands of us. There are two initial steps which the EA could take which would be positive. 1. The EA could issue advice to universities, colleges and schools which explains the situation for private candidates and encourages flexibility on required qualifications for admission. Many home educated children will be trying to make a case for this and their support would be appreciated. 2. The EA could investigate what the exam boards they offer will require in terms of proof and collate the information. Not only would their enquiry and concerns carry more weight, but it would ease the burden on the Board and would facilitate keeping everyone informed. The EA spoke a great deal during the recent Consultation and Working Group on the new Guidance about the importance of building a good working relationship with home educators, and indeed about the importance of access to qualifications. Their support is needed now.

Medicare Part A will cover short-term skilled nursing care provided in an approved SNF under certain conditions: You have Part A coverage and have days left in your benefit period to use. You have a qualifying 3-day hospital stay before entering the SNF. Your doctor has decided that you need daily skilled care that must be provided by, or under the supervision of, therapists or skilled nursing staff. Medicare coverage for skilled nursing facilities can extend up to 100 days. To be covered by Medicare, care must be treating a hospital-related medical condition, or a condition that started while you were in a SNF for a hospital-related condition. How A Skilled Nursing Facility Works A patient’s physical and mental health, medications, and ability to do daily activities such as washing and dressing are all evaluated when they enter a skilled nursing facility.Discrimination against residents in skilled nursing facilities and nursing homes is prohibited. Based on race, color, ethnicity, religion, age, sex, and other protected characteristics. Authorities, such as the long-term care ombudsman and state nursing home regulatory bodies. Can be notified if skilled nursing institutions break the rules.A person who believes their family member was denied admission to a nursing facility due to race could report the event to the Department of Public Health. If the patient has no other options for care, she can raise the issue with the facility and try to get them accepted. Medicare Advantage Nursing Home Benefits If you have Medicare Advantagealso known as Medicare Part Cor any other type of Medicare-approved health insurance plan, the CMS says that the individual plan dictates whether any nursing home care coverage is provided and, if so, to what extent. However, the CMS also says that most plans will not contribute to this type of extended care unless a nursing home has a contract with a particular plan. Also Check: Can Medicaid Take My Settlement Money Difference Between A Skilled Nursing Facility And An Assisted Living Facility Assisted living is for seniors who do not need round-the-clock care but need help with activities of daily living such as eating, bathing, dressing, and managing medications.Assisted living is a residential setting, whereas skilled nursing is a medical setting. The emphasis is on creating a healthy social atmosphere. With a full calendar of life enrichment activities such as exercise courses, family parties, and other activities. Transportation is given so that persons who are no longer able to drive can take part in activities such as church services, beauty appointments, and other outings.Welcoming dining rooms and vast common areas are found in assisted living facilities. This provides elders with endless possibilities like socialization and helps them feel a sense of belonging. Assisted living residents, unlike those in nursing facilities are allowed to bring their furniture and belongings resulting in a more homelike setting. Convalescent Home Vs Skilled Nursing Facility Convalescent care is provided by medically qualified workers at these establishments to provide short-term care to persons who are recovering from a brief setback such as an injury, illness, or surgery. The goal is to help the patient regain their ability to handle daily tasks including but not limited to feeding, bathing, and getting dressed. Once the patient has recovered they will be released from the convalescent center and return home to resume their normal routine.A nursing home is a facility that gives similar medical and life-assistance care but will be the patient’s permanent home. Read Also: Is Tenncare And Medicaid The Same Thing How To Choose A Nursing Home Suppose you need to go to a nursing home following a hospital stay. The hospital personnel can assist you in finding one that will give you the best care possible. Ask your doctor’s office for advice if you’re looking for a nursing home. Once you’ve determined your options, it’s a good idea to: Think about what you desire: Is it nursing care, meals, physical therapy, a religious service, hospice care, or care units? But, do you want to be able to visit your relatives and friends? Consult with your friends and relatives: Find out what places friends, relatives, social workers, and religious groups recommend. Consult your healthcare providers. To see which nursing homes they believe provide excellent care. Make many phone calls to several nursing facilities: Make contact with each location on your list. Inquire about the number of individuals who live there and how much it costs. Find out whether there are any waiting lists.Pay a visit to the facilities: Make a meeting with the director and the nursing director a priority. When visiting a nursing home, look for things like: Medicare and Medicaid certification Residents who look well cared for Warm interaction between staff and residents After you’ve decided on a nursing home, read the contract carefully. First, inquire about anything you don’t understand from the director or assistant director. Then, before you sign the contract, have a trusted friend or family member read it. B: Applicant Is Financially Ineligible For Nursing Home Medicaid If you have gathered information and realized that the person applying for Nursing Home Medicaid is not financially eligible due to being over the monthly income or asset limit, there are still avenues for people over the limits to receive Nursing Home Medicaid benefits, as Medicaid offers various ways to become eligible for applicants who may seem at first to be above their limits.

Most states allow you to submit your application for benefits in multiple ways: in person, by mail, or online. The online application is likely to result in a faster determination, approved or denied, than submitting physical documents in person or through the traditional mail. Protecting Property For A Spouse Why Home Health Care is preferred over SNF (skilled nursing facilities) When you go into a nursing home, your spouse may be able to keep your home, your car and your household furnishings. The DHS will then determine the value of your other assets, such as bank accounts and certificates of deposit. Depending on how much property you and your spouse have your spouse may be able to retain assets valued up to $95,100 for 2005. This amount will increase each year. The DHS will tell you the actual amount your spouse may retain. Read Also: Does Medicaid Help With Rent Obtaining A Medical Eligibility Determination The DHS nurse must complete a medical eligibility determination prior to you being approved for SoonerCare nursing home benefits. He/she will assess your specific needs and, if appropriate, provide you with information about the ADvantage waiver program, which is an alternative home and community-based service program. This information is provided to give you a choice to remain in your home, if appropriate, and receive care in relation to your needs. Even though you may be informed of the alternative home and community-based services, you retain the right to enter or remain in the nursing home. How Your Assets Impact Eligibility Besides income, your assets will be counted toward meeting eligibility requirements. Countable assets include checking and savings account balances, CDs, stocks, and bonds. In most states, you can retain up to $2,000 as an individual and $3,000 for a married couple outside of your countable assets. However, these amounts may vary depending on the state in which you live. Your home, your car, personal belongings, or your savings for funeral expenses remain outside of countable assets. If you can prove other assets are not accessible , they too are exempt. A house must be a principal residence and does not count as long as the nursing home resident or their spouse lives there or intends to return there. Upon becoming eligible for Medicaid, all of the applicant’s income must be used to pay for the nursing home where the applicant resides. However, you may be allowed to keep a monthly “allowance” and a deduction for medical needs, such as private health insurance. The amount of the allowance varies depending on your living arrangements, type of nursing facility, and state rules. If you are married, an allowance may be made for the spouse still living in the home. Recommended Reading: Is Obamacare And Medicaid The Same Thing How To Know When You Need Skilled Nursing Or A Nursing Home The most significant distinction between a skilled nursing facility and a nursing home is the level of medical care required and the length of stay. Following a brief hospital stay, a skilled nursing facility is often employed. When particular professional medical services are required to aid the patient’s total recovery. A brief stay follows this in skilled nursing. A patient assessment will be done. To determine whether the patient is ready to return to the community. Medicaid Nursing Home Benefits Medicaid pays 100% of nursing home costs in most cases if you meet eligibility requirements. In most states, the monthly income limit is $2,382 for individuals or $4,764 for spouses. Your countable resources must be less than $2,500. Income and resources that count toward the limit include: Wages Propertyâ Life insuranceâ âIn most states, Medicaid looks at your income over the last 5 years. Any assets you transferred out of your possession within that time may still count toward your income. Do not try to transfer financial assets in order to qualify for Medicaid.ââ You may be penalized for violating Medicaid rules. This can result in having to pay for your nursing home care out-of-pocket until you meet eligibility requirements.ââ Keep in mind that eligibility is on a rolling basis. It is possible to make as little as $1 over the monthly income limit and not qualify for the entire month. If this happens, you may have to pay for your nursing home care and related expenses yourself.ââ Types of nursing home coverage. You have three nursing home options with Medicaid: Skilled nursing â care related to medical issues and related services Rehabilitation â staying in a facility short-term following an illness, injury, or surgery â Long-term care â around-the-clock care at a facility because of a mental or physical condition â Also Check: I Am Pregnant And Need To Apply For Medicaid What Skilled Nursing Facility Services Does Medicare Cover Typically Medicare will pay for the following items and services delivered by trained health professionals: Semi-private room Prescription medications Certain medical equipment and supplies Ambulance transportation if you need care thats not available at the skilled nursing facility Generally Medicare will pay 100% of the Medicare-approved cost for the first 20 days and part of the cost for another 80 days of medically necessary care in a Medicare-certified skilled nursing facility each benefit period. You typically need to pay coinsurance for days 21-100. If your stay in a skilled nursing facility longer than 100 days in a benefit period, Medicare generally doesnt cover these costs. Other Nursing Home Coverage Options There are a few additional ways to get help with growing nursing home costs beyond the limited expenses Medicare agrees to pay. The first is Medicaid. The CMS explains that Medicaid eligibility is determined based on both income and resources. Additionally, this eligibility amount is generally higher for participants living in a nursing home than for the general Medicaid recipient. A second option is long-term care insurance. Depending on the individual policy, this type of insurance may cover nursing home care, assisted living, adult day care, or even informal care at home. Nursing home expenses can also be paid using money youve saved or invested over the years, with some life insurance policies having provisions for paying these costs as well.

You may have extra benefits for vision, hearing and dental that Original Medicare doesnt cover.4 Assessing Medical Eligibility For Nursing Home Medicaid In every state, an individual receiving Nursing Home Medicaid must require a Nursing Facility Level of Care . Because nursing homes are expensive, with average costs in the U.S. at more than $250 per day, Medicaid does not want to pay for someone to receive nursing-level care outside the home if it isnt absolutely necessary. It may be much more affordable to make home modifications like installing grab bars or security systems for remote monitoring, and Medicaid will pay for these through programs like Home and Community Based Services waivers, if your loved one qualifies, rather than an expensive move into nursing care. Assessments are how it is determined someone needs NFLOC and is therefore functionally eligible for Nursing Home Medicaid. Pre-Admission Assessments for Nursing Home CareEvery state has its own standard screening process to decide whether Medicaid applicants need a nursing home. A general term for the required screening is pre-admission level of care screening. There may be a simple questionnaire you fill out at home, or a more involved evaluation with your physician, as some states have more levels of assessment requirements than others. A Medicaid applicant might need help with a specific number of ADLs, or a doctors diagnosis of a specific medical condition might be required. Because there is so much variance, someone who is eligible for Medicaid in one state might not be eligible in another. Medicaid Pending Nursing Homes Don’t Miss: Does Medicaid Cover Hearing Aids In Ohio Medicare Vs Medicaid Roles In Nursing Home Care Medicare does cover nursing home careup to a point. If you are sent to a skilled nursing facility for care after a three-day inpatient hospital stay, Medicare will pay the full cost for the first 20 days. For the next 100 days, Medicare covers most of the charges, but patients must pay $185.50 per day unless they have a supplemental insurance policy. For day 101 and beyond, the patient pays all costs. These rules apply to traditional Medicare. People on Medicare Advantage plans likely have different benefits Some nursing homes wont accept Medicaid patients outright, but the law forbids them from throwing you out if you become dependent on Medicaid when you are in their care. Future Medicaid Claims Against Your Estate If you are over 55 and receive long-term care through Medicaid, or if you are permanently institutionalized before you turn 55, your state’s Medicaid program will have a claim against your estate after your death for the amount that the state spent on your care while you were receiving Medicaid. This is called Medicaid estate recovery. However, the state will not try to recover from your estate until after your spouse dies and only if you have not left any minor or disabled children. Some states, including California, can also recover the cost of Medicaid services other than long-term care servicesâas long as they were incurred after you turned 55.

TRANSPARENCY TUESDAY: Are college fundraisers exempt from open-records statutes? That’s a claim without foundation. Uncategorized July 2, 2013 December 17, 2019 Frank LoMonte A public university system sets up a fundraising arm to collect donations, entirely staffed by public employees and operated out of a government office building.If you don't see how that fundraising unit can be exempt from the disclosure laws that apply to government agencies, you're not alone.Neither did the attorney general of North Dakota,Wayne Stenehjem, who told the North Dakota University System that the records of money collected and spent by the North Dakota University System Foundation are a matter of public record and must be disclosed on request.In a ruling issued June 25, Stenehjem explained that there is essentially no separation between the university system and the privately incorporated "foundation" that the university system established in 1991 as a vehicle for receiving donations.The analysis was pretty much of a no-brainer, since the foundation has no staff or offices of its own, is run by board members who overlap with the State Board of Higher Education, and exists almost exclusively for the purpose of providing a vehicle to reimburse university system officials for expenses beyond what state law allows.

Part of enjoying beautiful, shiny, new appliances in a kitchen or elsewhere in the home is ensuring it stays long in good working order. To keep on top of it, it pays to schedule regular appliance maintenance services and, if it comes to it, to know someone who can perform appliance repair services. There are consequences to negligence and improper care of home appliances, so routine appliance repair and maintenance services should be employed. This article goes into sufficient detail regarding when, appliance repair is required, along with considerations for making sure an appliance is ready for maintenance or repair. Furthermore, the risks and consequences of improper appliance maintenance and care to describe the reasons why homeowners should invest in appliance repair and maintenance services. WHEN APPLIANCE REPAIRS ARE REQUIRED While it may be self-explanatory when appliance repairs are required, the description should be given about appliance maintenance and repair service provider functions. Note, companies may only be qualified or certified for appliance maintenance and repair in certain regions, so check that before calling. Appliance repair and maintenance services are also a product, so the same level of care should be taken before deciding on hiring them. If the appliances belong to a rented property, the appliance repairs and maintenance services are the landlord’s responsibility. As such, tenants should report any required repairs to the landlord as soon as possible. A lot of appliance maintenance and repair service providers will have a “no job too big or small” philosophy. These providers will be happy to take on a job regardless of how minor it is. However, often the solution to an issue can be found in the user manual that may save time and potential expense to the owner. If the answer is not in the manual, it might also be worth giving the appliance maintenance and repair service provider a call. The customer helpline may have the solution in the form of advice, which will again save money in the long run. They can even recommend that appliance maintenance and appoint repair expert visit. However, do not be complacent or dismissive of an obvious issue. If there is a leak somewhere, do not dismiss it as too minor a problem to be worth the appliance maintenance and repair service provider’s time and effort. This small issue could potentially become more significant and dangerous, even potentially life-threatening if allowed to escalate without professional attention. LANDLORD RESPONSIBILITIES FOR APPLIANCE REPAIR AND MAINTENANCE SERVICES In rented accommodation, most appliance repair and scheduling maintenance services fall to the landlord's responsibility. Owners are paying for appliance maintenance and repair services unless they are the consequences of direct misuse by the tenant, but there is no strict legal liability towards the appliances in the house. MINOR APPLIANCE MAINTENANCE AND REPAIRS TO FALL WITHIN THE TENANT’S RESPONSIBILITIES Landlords should tell new tenants when appliance maintenance services or appliance repairs were last carried out, and they should also inform tenants if any appliances need repairs. Tenants will have to acquire evidence of any pre-existing damages to appliances so that they do not incur surcharges upon the end of the tenancy. Tenants should read the tenancy agreement to ensure both parties understand the division of responsibility. It will save time, difficulty, stress, and expense. However, if the tenant has brought appliances to a rented property from a previous residence, a landlord has no responsibility for these. That is because these appliances are not part of the property the landlord owns. Any appliance repair and maintenance services required on these are the tenant’s responsibility. WHAT TO DO BEFORE SOMEONE COMES TO REPAIR AN APPLIANCE Before arranging a visit with an appliance repair person or engineer, several factors should be considered. Appliance repairs and maintenance services are generally quite expensive and time-consuming jobs. As such, check to make sure they are indispensably necessary and all straightforward things have been done first before asking them to resolve the issue. A detailed list provided below: Make sure you have checked the power supply. Usually, the most obvious things are the ones people forget or dismiss. A question like “is it switched on at the power?” seems too ridiculous to dignify. If it saves time, stress, and money, it is worth the consideration. Do not call to arrange an appliance a repair and maintenance service without at least checking if the appliance is even switched on. Check the user manual; if an engineer sent out to handle a problem whose solution was in the manual, it would be frustrating for both parties and a waste of time and money. So, ensure that simple things checked, getting an engineer out to perform an appliance repair should be a last resort – unless it’s necessary, of course. Ensure the appliance is clean. With machines like ovens and refrigerators, dirt and debris can often build up gradually without the homeowners even noticing. That will, in turn, hinder their ability to do their job. Keeping appliances clean is part of the maintenance services the homeowner can perform. That can, in turn, reduce the necessity for full appliance repairs in the future. MAINTENANCE ON YOUR HOME APPLIANCES Before scheduling a professional appliance maintenance service, it is best to keep general appliance maintenance as part of a household chore list. Unless there are trained professionals in the household, appliance maintenance cannot be performed by the owner due to the technical aspects. But more straightforward, generic tasks that require no training or certification can be undertaken by the homeowner. Keep them clean. As aforementioned, ovens and refrigerators tend to work best when they are clean, so giving them a regular once-over will do the trick just fine. The same applies to dishwashers. If these start getting in a condition where they no longer clean the dishes properly, draining them, and cleaning out the filter should be at the top of the list. Furthermore, the air conditioner and HVAC units should be given extra special maintenance care, as they can be a breeding ground for the mold. Regular deep cleaning of these appliances should be introduced into the housekeeping routine. That will allow avoiding the requirement for specialist help and potential harm to health in the future. Be careful of using physical force. Much as they just won’t sometimes close, slamming the doors to your oven, fridge or dishwasher does them no good. It only takes someone who doesn’t know their strength to slam the door a little too hard and break it. It’s an expensive element of appliance repair – think how forcefully those doors get shut. Don’t overload your washing machine or dryer. It may seem like a time and money-saver. Overloading a washing machine with too many clothes may cause more harm than good. Too heavy a load causes stress on the motors that power the washing machine. Appliance repairs of this kind are not cheap; sometimes less money has been spent just buying a new appliance. RISKS OF IMPROPER APPLIANCE MAINTENANCE If not arranged on time the appropriate appliance maintenance, repair services company you have a risk to pay later much more. Whether, the appliance is requiring extensive maintenance after prolonged periods of neglect, or replacement after the machine is beyond repair. Appliance maintenance, repair services providers, are around for a reason and they are a worthwhile investment. In scheduling a regular maintenance and repair service for household appliances, the professional can alert the householder to other potential problems. Things such as fire hazards that improper care and neglect have led to; this can also be something as minor as advising the homeowner not to run their appliances during the night (since they won’t be awake to detect a fault or fire hazard) to noting the presence of a leak that could become worse. Where necessary, a maintenance service provider will be able to alert a homeowner to the presence or potential of more severe damage to an appliance and arrange for the appliance repairs at that time. Appliance Installation Appliance delivery and installation services are among the essential services required for completing a home. Many of the modern conveniences common to households – washing machines, dishwashers, refrigerators, ovens, etc. – none of these will work correctly without professional appliance delivery and installation services. Therefore, it is essential to know what to look out for; some considerations need to be taken to make sure that you hire a suitable appliance and installation services provider for your needs. The following guide will provide a detailed insight into all the different kinds of appliances, what to do before you hire appliance delivery and installation services, and what you should check about the service itself. It will also discuss how appliance delivery and installation services should generally work. APPLIANCE DELIVERY AND INSTALLATION – HOW IT WORKS Go out to a showroom or check around online. Once an appliance has been found to suit the customer’s needs, purchase very often includes the delivery charge. However, also the appliance delivery part of the installation service is optional, and will, therefore, usually incur a surcharge. Depending on the provider, the appliance installation part of the service will include the disconnection and disposal of the old appliance. Check when purchasing to ascertain these details – it will ensure a smoother appliance installation and a superior level of service in the long run. Since the process of conducting full appliance delivery and installation services will differ from provider to provider, it is impossible to provide a step-by-step guide for what they will do. However, generally the following appliance delivery, the installers should inspect the delivered appliance – to check for any damage in transit, for example. If it is a part of the service, they will disconnect the old appliance and take it away for disposal accordingly. Appliance installers will most often inspect the room where the appliance must be placed, to ensure that they can provide safe and correct installation there. Once the installer has connected the appliance, it will be tested to be sure there are no faults, and it works correctly. The last thing is the appliance certificate, which the installer will fill out and give to the customer. The appliance document usually details the type of energy the appliance uses, plus the assurance that appliance delivery and installation service were carried out according to the highest quality standards. TYPES OF APPLIANCE AND PRICE DIFFERENCES Firstly, it is essential to understand the different types of appliances. To correctly cater the appliance delivery and installation service to a householder’s needs, one needs to find which is the correct appliance and if the service they require is accessible. Some are more expensive than others, which is another factor to consider. The selection of appliances will ultimately depend on the retailer or supplier. This guide offers a general look at the typical possibilities and a general analysis of the appliance's price range. The most commonly required machines for appliance delivery and installation services in the kitchen are ovens, stoves, ranges, etc. The central element to consider is whether the appliance should be electric or gas, and which will best suit the specific kitchen. There are also dual-fuel option appliances out there, but these appliances have a higher price and are uncommon. Appliance delivery and installation services often include the option to switch from gas to electric or vice versa. Some providers will require a warning if such a transfer is taking place. They may need to send a separate appliance professional with the appropriate qualifications. Also applicable are the laundry appliance installation services. Washing machines and dryers, plus dishwashers. All three of these tend to cost around the same to install – some providers charge the same to fit each one. However, also combination appliances machines do exist. For example, an integrated washing and drying machine will cost more to install because there are added considerations for the installer to take note of. Finally, appliance delivery and installation services also install refrigerators and cooling facilities. It is uncommon to find a fridge that does not come integrated with a freezer. However, if the chosen provider does supply separate refrigerators and freezers, the respective costs are higher than for one integrated machine. Appliance delivery and installation service providers will also offer the option of a door reversal in a freestanding fridge freezer as part of the appliance installation service. But that is dependent on the appliance’s model – there are certain fridge freezers with electronic controls based on the doors that cannot allow a reversal. The TV is the primary living room appliance that the delivery and installation service can maintain. In a household that adopts a “bigger is better” philosophy, the delivery of such potentially large products should be better left down to the professionals. With a TV, the cost depends on the size of the appliance itself. A supplier will ordinarily have a single fixed charge for installation and tuning. Usually priced at a tiny fraction of what some of these models cost. In a house that demands elegant feature lighting, thoroughly trained and qualified appliance delivery and installation services required. Regarding costs, that depends more on the size of the appliance delivery and installation service job than the lights themselves. Factors such as the number of rooms, time will be considered when calculating the price. A CHECKLIST FOR CHOOSING AN APPLIANCE DELIVERY AND INSTALLATION SERVICE To ensure the appliance delivery and installation service meets a trustworthy and reputable standard, please refer to the checklist below. Prior research can help avoid potential scams, and the below considerations can at least ensure receipt of decent service. Check if the appliance delivery and installation services will be carried out in one visit. Some providers may not provide a single-service appliance delivery and installation, particularly if the appliances are integrated or have gas or electric built-in. Check if the provider also disconnects and recycles the old appliance. Also, be sure to ascertain if there are any surcharges incurred for these additional services. Some will offer this service for free; others won’t. In the cases where customers are full-time workers, inquire with the appliance delivery and installation services provider if they can deliver on Saturdays or Sundays. Such providers do exist. Make sure the appliance installers are certified and accredited by a manufacturer, professional body or authority. If the website does not state this, ask for proof of certification before a purchase. That will help to separate the scams from the genuine appliance delivery and installation service providers. A CHECKLIST FOR THE ROOM BEFORE THE APPLIANCE DELIVERY AND INSTALLATION SERVICE ARRIVES The room must be suitable for the appliance installation as much as the other way around. Below is a list of factors to check before arranging for appliance delivery and installation services. Make sure the room has the correct supply outlets, within a suitable distance of where the appliance placed. Also, check the power supply has sufficient voltage for the machine. If you are changing from gas to electric or vice versa, inform the appliance installers about that. If old appliance disconnection is part of the appliance delivery and installation service, then the provider must be notified that an adequate appliance specialist must be appointed. Assess the space required for bringing the appliance into the house. Appliance delivery services are often difficult or inconvenient because of tight doorways, limited space staircases or awkward corners, etc. Take measurements in the place where the appliance supposedly be installed to ensure it will fit there. Do not guess or estimate. Precise measures are required to avoid problems when it comes to installation. Ensure there are no safety hazards in and around the area intended for the appliance. It may not be part of the appliance delivery and installation services to inspect that for the customer. Make sure the stove is not going to be installed directly under a pair of drapes – a potential fire hazard. When preparing to have dishwashers, refrigerators, etc. replaced or disposed of, ensure they are cleaned, drained, defrosted, etc. before the appliance installers disconnect, replace, or dispose of them.

In professional literature we find some remarkable facts regarding the manual lifting and moving of patients compared to the use of a patient lift. Manual versus patient lift Manually moving patients can NOT be done safely despite specific techniques or maintaining good posture. A patient lift is more comfortable for the patient, and safer for both the patient and the attendant compared to moving manually. Moving using a patient lift generally takes less time and requires fewer attendants than moving manually. Advantages of a lifting system Based on various studies, it was found that a lifting system has the following advantages in the longer term:

Moray Council will host a two-day exhibition in Elgin next week providing the latest information over their western link road proposals. A detailed design of the £8.5million project is nearing completion with hopes that a formal planning application will be ready later this year. Moray Council say that the latest exhibition is one of a series staged to keep the public “fully engaged” in the process and allow the opportunity to provide feedback which has already been helpful in the detailed design of the scheme. Earlier this year Moray councillors approved the use of a compulsory purchase order to acquire the land necessary for the new road, however, a council spokesman said that it is hoped negotiations with landowners will remove the need for compulsory acquisition.

When the first slot machines were installed in casinos, the makers wanted to provide something for people who didn’t know much about gambling. Since a slot machine requires only a small bet, even the least experienced gambler can play. But, as the popularity of slots spread, they soon became the game of the town. Now, slots generate 60 percent of the nation’s gaming profits. Here are the basics of slot machines and how they work. If you’re new to the game, don’t worry: the tips provided here will help you choose the best slot machine for you. Video slot machines The paytable of a slot machine is a list of credits that are awarded when matching symbols appear on the screen. Often, you can find this list on the machine’s face or on the bottom, in the case of older machines. Video slot machines, however, often have the paytable in the help menu. Read on to learn more about the paytable. Listed below is a guide to video slots. Read the paytable carefully and use it to help you win! Multi-line slot machines There are several differences between standard and multi-line slot machines. In simple terms, multi-line slot machines have more than one payline. While standard reel slot machines often only have three or five paylines, the latest versions have as many as 243 paylines. Obviously, the higher the number of paylines, the higher the odds of winning. However, multi-line slot machines are often much more complex than their simpler counterparts. Classic reel-spinning slot machines If you’ve never played slot machines, they’re the most common type. They use reels to spin symbols and pay out prizes. Many have three or five reels, but you can also find ten-reel machines. These machines are often referred to as “Big Berthas,” named for their weight and the World War I super-heavy mortar. These machines use the same mechanical principles as their ancestors, but now use computers to determine the prize amount. Games with bonus events The bonuses in slots may be based on different stages in the game or may be random, depending on what happens in the game. The bonuses may increase payouts or “loosen” the game. Some games even have free spin bonuses for players to try out. Bonus events may also be linked over a network and may accumulate and be used later. Contributions to the network may be voluntary or non-voluntary, and may not require extra wagers. Some games may offer different paytables for each stage, and some players may purchase a higher paytable as a side bet. Ways to beat a slot machine One of the most popular casino games is the slot machine, and it can be played in both land-based and online casinos. The slot machine has become so popular that it’s often the most popular game in a casino, and in some nations it’s even the most popular game. However, many players wonder how to beat a slot machine, and how they can improve their chances of winning. Here are some tips to increase your odds of winning.

Nageshwara Rao heard the matter and refused to entertain the petition which was filed by Kerala MLA PC George who was seeking the postponement of local body polls in the State which was scheduled to start from tomorrow.

If you peek into classrooms around the world, a bunch of bespectacled kids peeks back at you. In some countries such as China, as much as 80 percent of children are nearsighted. As those kids grow up, their eyesight gets worse, requiring stronger and thicker eyeglasses. But a diluted daily dose of an ancient drug might slow that process. The drug is atropine, one of the toxins in deadly nightshade and jimsonweed. In the 19th and early 20th centuries, atropine was known as belladonna, and fancy Parisian ladies used it to dilate their pupils, since big pupils were considered alluring at the time. A few decades later, people started using atropine to treat amblyopia, or lazy eye, since it blurs the stronger eye’s vision and forces the weaker eye to work harder. As early as the 1990s, doctors had some evidence that atropine can slow the progression of nearsightedness. In some countries, notably in Asia, a 1 percent solution of atropine eyedrops is commonly prescribed to children with myopia. It’s not entirely clear how atropine works. Because people become nearsighted when their eyeballs get too elongated, it’s generally thought that atropine must be interfering with that unwanted growth. But as Parisians discovered long ago, the drug can have some inconvenient side effects. Because it dilates pupils and blurs vision, atropine becomes hard to see up close or to stand bright lights. “The children had difficulty reading. They would wear photochromatic glasses to shade against the glare,” says Dr. Donald Tan, senior advisor at the Singapore National Eye Center. “We realized, yeah, atropine does work, but we’ve got to reduce the dose so we can reduce some of these side effects. Otherwise it will never be practical.” So Tan and a group of collaborators started testing out different doses of atropine on a group of 400 nearsighted children in Singapore. The participants took the eyedrops every day for two years. Since some patients’ eyes will go into a growth spurt after going off the atropine, the researchers monitored the participants for a year off eyedrops. Patients whose nearsightedness rebounded during that year went back on the low-dose atropine for another year or two. The children getting the lowest dose, eyedrops that were just 0.01 percent atropine, had the least worsening of nearsightedness compared to any other group after a five-year period. “We slowed the progression of myopia by 50 percent [in this group],” Tan says. He and his colleagues have been researching atropine as a treatment for eye problems since the 1990s. Part of the reason why this formulation did better, he says, is because these children’s eyeballs had virtually no growth spurt after the initial two-year treatment period. And the children on 0.01 percent atropine had almost no uncomfortable side effects from the eyedrops, the researchers reported Monday at the American Academy of Ophthalmology annual meeting in Las Vegas. “That was a surprise. You’d think 0.01 percent would be completely worthless as a concentration, but it turned out to be slightly better.” says Dr. David Epley, a pediatric ophthalmologist and a former president for the American Academy of Ophthalmology, who was not involved in the study. “The beauty of it was basically no kids had side effects.” That opens atropine back up as a practical treatment for myopia, Epley says, “This gives us a tool to slow down that progression of myopia that we didn’t have in a safe way before.” Epley has been prescribing 1 percent atropine for some children in his own practice. He says he recommends it for children whose eyesight is rapidly getting worse and need new eyeglasses every few months, but not for patients who only have mild vision impairment. If low-dose atropine can be made available to more people around the world, then that’s likely to reduce the number of people at risk for developing a retinal detachment or retinal degeneration because of extreme nearsightedness. That’s more important now, since the prevalence of nearsightedness has been increasing dramatically over the years, Epley says. About 40 percent of people in the U.S. are nearsighted, up from 25 percent in the 1970s. But making the drug available to a lot of people might not be so easy. Right now, only eyedrops with 1 percent atropine are commercially available in the United States, though 0.01 percent is available in places like Hong Kong, where myopia is especially common. To get the diluted version, families and physicians in other locales need to get a compounding pharmacy to create it, and the Food and Drug Administration has only approved the 1 percent solution so far.

This is something that club members don’t need to be aware of, but gaming machines can be unpredictable. This is despite the fact that they are set to pay at a specific rate. Every curve is completely independent of the previous turn. As an example, suppose you win the huge stake one time. The chances of winning the mother lode the next turn are almost the same. The past events do not influence the future. They don’t work this way. Club doesn’t need to tell you this because they want you to be able to determine whether openings are hot or cold. This will affect your judgement as to how much you wager and play. They are happy to see these legends grow and prosper. Every advancement that you make is tracked by the club from the moment you place your card and cash in a togel singapore designated space. The betting machines are well-organized and have the latest programming and gear to help you succeed. These reports are compiled, broken down, and understood. They are then passed to the club exhibiting division to help them figure out how to best publicize their betting clubs and spaces with the goal that you return to play more. You don’t need to worry about how your play is being followed. In the event that your card is not being used, the betting club that makes public their workplaces will begin using security systems to screen and track your play, paying little attention to the possibility that you use it. Facial affirmation tasks can be used to identify you and make you a partner with a player’s cards or make another player record your play. This is alarming, and shows how far club will go. You can play online, and everything is tracked under your player account. This makes it easier for online clubs to monitor what you do. In the past few years, cash payouts to openings have been gradually reduced by betting clubs. You’ll most likely receive a ticket when cashing out. This ticket should be taken to the cash-out machine or the nook for cash exchange. The betting clubs will make sure this happens for your benefit, but one reason they have made this improvement is to separate you from the fact that you are holding cash. This is similar to how they supervise chips at table games. Mental tests have shown that people will bet more with chips or tickets than money. Don’t let anyone fool you into thinking that your ticket can be placed in another area while you’re evolving. They’ve done it deliberately. I recommend that you buy the tickets for cash, rather than saving them for later. It is not easy to beat the spaces. Every spaces player loses beyond what they can convince time. A few lucky openings card sharks can influence the significant length. Are these card sharks winning by thinking about karma? Or do they have a clue that spaces players don’t know?

Bias is defined as people having feelings and opinions, usually preconceived, against people or things, sometimes unfairly, although not always. People immediately and automatically make up their minds and take positions on things without giving any thought. This is called “implicit bias” and it often occurs unintentionally because people aren’t even aware that they are doing it. It affects our choices, decisions, judgments, and actions. Bias is part of the human condition. As children, our human nature guides us toward bias based on our interactions with others. Our association with others and how we feel around them helps us determine who we want to be with. As we grow, so do our biases. We learn biases from others (conditioning), and we form our own biases as we go along in life. For example, we make decisions on what clothing we like to wear, what foods we prefer to eat, etc. Problems arise when we become so comfortable with our biases, we automatically react without considering that they may be affecting our decisions in a negative way. This causes many conflicts within our affiliations with individuals and/or groups. People quickly and easily share with others what their positions and stances are on things, but rarely support their positions and stances with any evidence based on knowledge, research, or education. It’s often based on thinking the way others have told them to think, conditioned them to think, and programmed them to think. This preconceived way of thinking causes people to make judgements without basing them on facts, logic, and the information in front of them. Once a person immediately comes to their conclusions without forethought, they then twist and contort every clue and piece of evidence that contracts their predetermined decisions to their favor. Biased thinking precludes any opinion or fact that contradicts someone’s bias. The more facts you show someone who is entrenched in their position, the more entrenched they will become in their position. The greatest bias that we have is for ourselves. We rarely look at ourselves objectively, and automatically think that the way we think about ourselves is how other people should perceive us. And when other people try to give us their perception of how we are, we immediately cut them off, disbelieve them, and defend our beliefs about ourselves. One of the greatest facts that we should examine in ourselves is our biases. Biases not only limit our thinking, but they also bias our thinking. We will do everything within our power to try and support our decisions, regardless of the irrationality behind them. While people may use the excuse that bias is hard to break, it doesn’t mean that it can’t be broken. The first step is to pause and become more aware of your thinking. Think about your past and how people in your life have influenced you to believe and act a certain way. Think about how you have formed opinions and see if you are using that same way of thinking in every situation. Think about your own beliefs. Are they truly your own beliefs, or are they things that were transferred onto you as a child? Are they things that you adopted as beliefs because of peer pressure? Do you really even know what you truly believe because it was suppressed due to conformity? Have you formed your own beliefs on certain individual experiences that you then apply to everyone? As you become more aware of the influences that have impacted your life, you can begin to sort things out in your mind and come to terms with how you came to be who you are so you can then come to terms with who you truly want to be. Recognizing and addressing your biases leads to the next step - change. You need to completely change your mindset. You need to erase your mind of your old ways of thinking. You need to eradicate the thinking that was imprinted on you, and you need to elilminate the thinking that you formed yourself. It is possible to look at yourself and recognize your biases. In order to do that, you need to look at yourself. This simple step is something that people fiercely fight and oppose because they don’t want to look at themselves. Another important step is to focus on your listening. Have you become so entrenched in defending yourself and your positions that you don’t even listen to what people are saying to you? Stop and ask yourself, “Is it possible that what this person is telling me could be true?” And remember...

The Oklahoma City Blue’s season came to a close midday Saturday, officially being elevated from playoff contention. Oklahoma City surged out the gate as a championship contender to begin the regular-season. The Blue ranked top 5 in near every major category through eight games, tugging over a three-way tie for first at 7-1. Their first caution sign came February 24 against the Greensboro Swarm, faltering a 19 point lead in a brutal 120-118 loss. Just one day later, Ty Jerome was recalled for the big leagues. becoming the second major guard to leave the team, with the other being Chasson Randle. Oklahoma City rallied for their next contest, climbing down from a 29 point hole against the Austin Spurs, but fell just shy 109-106. The Blue picked up a strong finish against the then league-best Delaware Blue Coats to swing to 8-3. This is right about where the water gets murky. The Blue’s playoff ticket would’ve been punched in a March 1 meeting with the Long Island Nets, or any future game, however their overtime defeat raised speculation. Oklahoma City’s back-end schedule stood unparalleled to the rest of the league ending their year against the top 3 seeds in the Raptors 905, Erie Bayhawks, and Santa Cruz Warriors. All three games yielded tough efforts, but all three fell short, ending 8-7. Despite plummeting 5-of-6 games to close the year, chances of getting in with only 8 wins looked extremely high at first glance. Though this groups misfortune soon became a sport statisticians fantasy. The Lakeland Magic snagged a playoff spot in silence, finishing the season on a 5-1 hot-streak charging a 9-6 finish. One more loss from Lakeland and Oklahoma City falls in (tiebreaker.) The Rio Grande Valley Vipers were brushed off by the Blue earlier in the season, yet a late push from them earned them a shot late. A March 3 meeting amongst Rio Grande and the G-League Ignite marked a Blue clinch off an Ignite victory. They lost 130-107. Rio Grande ended things on a six-game streak, in a situation where one more blemish to their 9-6 record produced the Blue’s reservations. Entering the final day of play, Oklahoma City stood-off with the G-League Ignite vying over the last playoff seed. A Blue victory against Santa Cruz would garner a 3-vs-6 matchup against Erie, but their 2pm 113-103 overtime loss shut that door. The fate of the franchise for the first time in a week changed hands. The Ignite’s 6pm date against the Spurs determined destiny. An Ignite loss — OKC is in. An Ignite victory — it’s all over. The Ignite sparked a 10 point lead through one, 20 through two, and at one point, finding themselves up 41 at it’s apex. The Ignite set no room for nerves, cruising for a 127-92 beating. In a regular-season ending with so many variables, the dice landed on the only spot Oklahoma City couldn’t recover from — an Ignite-Blue tie. A year with so many twines, the Oklahoma City Blue churned out likely their best roster ever. And though the Wikipedia page may suggest otherwise, those who were delighted with Blue basketball this season — will never forget it.

NEW YORK--(BUSINESS WIRE)--May 16, 2022-- Griffon Corporation (“Griffon” or the “Company”) (NYSE:GFF) today announced that its Board of Directors has initiated a process to review a comprehensive range of strategic alternatives to maximize shareholder value including a sale, merger, divestiture, recapitalization or other strategic transaction. Griffon has retained Goldman Sachs & Co. LLC as its financial advisor and Dechert LLP as its legal counsel to assist in the review process. Ronald J. Kramer, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, said “We are proud of what the Board, management and our employees have accomplished in building Griffon. We have executed a substantial transformation, which started in 2018 with the divestiture of the Plastics business and the acquisitions of ClosetMaid and Cornell Cookson. During the past four years Griffon’s operating performance has been outstanding with significant increases in profitability and free cash flow. The recent strategic acquisition of Hunter Fan Company complements and diversifies our Consumer & Professional Products segment while the announced divestiture of our defense electronics business, Telephonics, will strengthen our balance sheet.” “Demonstrating the conviction in its ability to continue to deliver strong operating performance for the business, Griffon raised its fiscal year 2022 adjusted EBITDA guidance for its business segments to $475 million, an increase of $120 million or 34%, during the company’s second quarter results conference call on April 28th,” said Mr. Kramer. “Additionally, management also discussed its expectation that the company’s leverage, as calculated in accordance with Griffon’s credit agreement, will be less than 3.0x EBITDA by the end of fiscal 2022 ending September 30 (a reduction of at least 1.5x from the second quarter ended March 31), driven by second half cash generation and EBITDA performance and the proceeds from the divestiture of Telephonics.” “Notwithstanding the increased guidance for fiscal 2022, and our confidence in our forward outlook, there is a profound disconnect between Griffon's share price and the underlying value of our businesses. Given this disconnect, the Board and management believe it is necessary to consider a review of alternatives, with a focus on maximizing near-term shareholder value creation. Our top priority is unlocking the true intrinsic value of Griffon for our shareholders.” There is no timeline for this review and there is no assurance that the Board’s review will result in any transaction being entered into or consummated. Griffon does not intend to comment on the process or disclose further developments until the Board approves a specific transaction or otherwise concludes its review of strategic alternatives. Safe Harbor Statements “Safe Harbor” Statements under the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995: All statements related to, among other things, income (loss), earnings, cash flows, revenue, changes in operations, operating improvements, industries in which Griffon operates and the United States and global economies that are not historical are hereby identified as “forward-looking statements” and may be indicated by words or phrases such as “anticipates,” “supports,” “plans,” “projects,” “expects,” “believes,” “should,” “would,” “could,” “hope,” “forecast,” “management is of the opinion,” “may,” “will,” “estimates,” “intends,” “explores,” “opportunities,” the negative of these expressions, use of the future tense and similar words or phrases.

Throughout history, epoch-defining ideas and innovation have spread all over the world. These ideas like Christianity travel far along trade routes where people not only peddle goods and wares, but perhaps more importantly, their culture and experience. Trade was the catalyst to a connected world, and ideas ensured that the world remained connected. Therefore, ideas and trade changed the world the most between 1400 and 1800. Ideas are far-reaching and work in different ways. For example, the very first works out of the printing press were religious documents, the Bible. This gave huge effects on European civilization, especially in spreading beliefs and information quickly and accurately. Further, it contributed to advancing and spreading knowledge, and forming public opinion in a way that nothing before the advent of smartphone in the twentieth century could rival. Christianity also exerted an influence on the world in other ways. The Catholic Church itself had great power and wealth, and it brought most parts of the world including America, Africa, East Indies, and East Asia into the Christian world. This accumulation of wealth and power enabled the Church to sponsor such artists as Michelangelo, Raphael, and da Vinci; It was the time of artistic masterpieces. Absolutism influenced the world in a different way. It claimed that monarchs had absolute power since they received the right to govern from God. This thought allowed the growth of state power which was evident in Europe and across much of Asia. Based on the European power and influence, Europe began to spread its ideas and values around the world and to govern over the ancient civilizations of Asia. Trade was essential because the world became more connected through it. To illustrate, spices and other luxurious goods that merchants carried from Asia were desirable. Despite the meager supply, there was a lot of demand. They were also quite expensive. Acquiring these goods required risky travel through land and various middlemen who were all looking to profit. Once, however, Europe discovered a sea route, cutting out the middlemen and removing the dangers associated with overland travel, trade proceeded in a wider scale. With increased trade and commerce, European states gained wealth and power. They used this authority and wealth in paying for bigger and more powerful armies and expanding their business. Trade resulted in the exchange between the eastern and western hemispheres which is known as the Columbian Exchange. For instance, ships from America went back to Europe, Asia, and Africa with a wide array of items. Mainly, produce like corn and potatoes from America became a steady part of the diets around the world and helped boost the world’s population. Europeans, on the other hand, sent goods to America, along with livestock such as horses, cattle, and pigs. Without trade we would not have many of the things we have today. We would not know about parts of the world or their history. Trade helped in spreading ideas like the Renaissance. On the one hand, ideas helped trade increase and advance. That is to say that trade was started from ideas and ideas advanced thanks to trade. Both trade and ideas are important since they had symbiotic relationship that benefited the world in many different ways. For example, ideas, inventions, and techniques spread readily far along the Silk Road. In other words, the entire process of trade augmented not just the merchants who intervene the trade of goods from Asia, but the people of different countries and cultures all across Eurasia. Eventually, trade increased, and the desire people wanted to elevate trade more dramatically encouraged them to develop their seafaring skills and technologies. They built ships and used the compass. Europeans also advanced the art and science of cartography. However, sea travel doesn’t just affect the technology of sea sailing, but also influenced colonization. The intertwined nature of ideas and trade is also evident in the role of Christianity in the formation of banks, and how inflation affected colonial societies. Trade was often fueled by ideas of exploration and the promise of wealth, and ideas were made more influential by the far reach made possible by trade. The two things go hand in hand, one as much a part of the other. Peoples, goods, and ideas from different cultures and nations have diffused, creating a new, globalized outlook of the world. Until today, these two things continue to influence the whole world in unfathomable ways.

MegaLic® 21 and MegaLic® 21 Mag supplements are designed to be fed to beef cattle on pasture. These unique supplements are second to none when compared to other blocks. They are the products of a state-of-the-art patented process that provides a unique 24-hour feeding system. MegaLic 21 and MegaLic 21 Mag supplements are exceptionally nutrient dense blocks that will give you the most for your money. Here’s how: Economical: A low cattle feeding rate of 3/4 lb/head daily means lower feeding costs (on a per head per day basis). Weather Resistant: Our patented, “continuous flow” manufacturing system creates a high quality, low-moisture, exceptionally nutrient dense block that maintains its integrity even in hot, humid weather or precipitation. Minimal Labor: MegaLic 21 and MegaLic 21 Mag are easy to feed. Simply place the blocks in areas of easy access to the livestock. Feeding Directions Provide free choice as a supplement to pasture cattle at the rate of one block for each 15 to 25 head. Place blocks in each pasture near areas frequented by livestock, such as watering locations, shade or loafing areas. Cattle normally consume approximately 3/4 pound per head daily. Consumption may vary depending on climate, grazing conditions, condition of livestock, and/or availability of other feeds. In situations where climate and/or other factors result in consumption of less than 3/4 pound per head daily, intake of supplement can be increased by increasing the number of blocks per pasture.

Where do you go to find the best products to sell on Shopify? How do you know you’re picking a winner niche? Shopify experts reveal how they choose their products and give tips on how you can make intelligent choices too. Research Your Niche First, you need to determine your niche. How do you decide? Start by brainstorming a list of products that interest you. Think about the items you want to sell and determine which categories are most profitable for online merchants. There are tons of articles with information on picking a niche market, so go ahead and do some research! The key is not necessarily just finding something that interests you, but something profitable. You could have a hobby collection in mind, but it might be time to re-think your choices if it doesn’t make money! Check Sales Volume Before you pick a product, check its sales volume. By searching for your chosen product and checking its many reviews, you can do that. A great way to find products to sell on Shopify is by using e-commerce search engines such as Jungle-Scout or Merchant Words. These websites show you how many people buy a particular product through Amazon or Walmart and are sold directly on Amazon’s website or Walmart’s marketplace also Alibaba, POD, drop-shipping, and print on demand. You can easily sell your products on local markets. Research Pricing Before you even begin searching for products, it is an excellent idea to set your price ceiling. This is a figure you don’t want your products or product line to go above; otherwise, you run into trouble with your margins. You can start by looking at other similar available products and pricing them out. Having done that, decide how much of a margin you’re willing (and think is reasonable) to make on each sale, and stick with it when sourcing new products. Also, be sure not to get too greedy. Look at Reviews You’ll get a much better idea of what works and what does ‘t by looking at how people use or experience a product. Read reviews and comments from your target audience, not just from other people who like your niche. For example, if you sell dog leashes, read reviews from pet owners who specifically need a leash that isn’t too thick or too thin. Validate your product idea with a Facebook group or Instagram group If you want to find a product idea that will sell, don’t be afraid to ask others what they think. If your friends and family are eager for you to create a product for them, consider making it for them and selling it on an e-commerce platform like Shopify. First, search Facebook and Instagram for people talking about similar products you can join these groups (or look at their public pages) to understand what questions they have and identify common complaints. Look for similar Products already selling on Amazon. Researching popular products by looking at Amazon is a simple way to get ideas for your Store. The main reason you want to do this is that these products already have reviews and rankings. You can look at these ranks and see how much money you’d need to make for it to be profitable. For example, if you look at a product that has 50 sales a day, it’s easy to tell whether or not that product is thriving divide 50 by 0.99 cents (the going rate per sale), and it’s pretty evident whether or not that product is worth selling as well. Do keyword research with Google AdWords Keyword Planner. Once you have a few ideas for products that might be profitable, you need to do some research. Spend some time on Google’s Ad-words Keyword Planner and figure out how many people are searching for each product every month. Even though keywords are relatively expensive, their average cost per click is often much less than Amazon’s Keyword Planner tool. Once you’ve run your keyword searches, look up those terms in Amazon’s Product Advertising API and see how many sellers there are. Use Product Analytics to determine the demand and competition of keywords. If you want your Store to be profitable, it’s essential that you find products in high demand and competitively priced. That way, you’ll be able to make a decent profit from sales without taking significant risks with your capital. The first step is finding product ideas using keyword research tools. Product analytics can also help because they show the average monthly revenue per product. When searching for relevant keywords, look for products with less than $5k in monthly revenue per product. FAQs What are my selling limits on Shopify? The first thing you want to do is check your selling limits. This can be found by going into Online Store from your desktop computer’s left sidebar. Once there, click Products. Now, select a product and scroll down until you see a link that says Your Selling Limits. Clicking it will open up a pop-up that contains all of your selling limits. Below I have provided an image of what it should look like. How can I see what my selling limits are? Once you have signed up for a Shopify plan, you will be able to see what your selling limits are by clicking on Store at the top of your screen and then Selling tools. At that point, you will be directed to a dashboard where you can see how many orders, sales, and products you have sold over time. This is also where you can see what your limits are for each category, so that way it helps in planning out what products we should sell. Can I create a Bundle of any products or only certain types of items? You can create a bundle of any item available in your Store. The bundle must be made up of products from your inventory. If you sell someone else’s products, you cannot use them in your bundles. Conclusion Once you’ve found a product, it’s time to calculate your cost. This will help you determine whether or not it makes sense for you. We recommend trying out less than 25% of your average sale products not to scare off customers with high prices. There are tons of resources online if you’re looking for inspiration or information on e-Commerce products, such as Amazon, Instagram, or Pinterest.

US eliminates Spain in Olympic basketball — again Spain led the game by as much as 10 points in the second quarter. The Americans then took control of the game with a 22-6 run in the third. Ricky Rubio scored 38 points to keep Spain in the contest, but it wasn’t enough to contend with Kevin Durant, who scored 29 points and dished out four assists in the US victory. “We are playing for a lot of people back at home and a lot of people around the world who support us,” Durant told NBC. “Guys are laying it out on the line to win this. Guys are going to do whatever we need to win.” While the United States reigns as the dominant powerhouse in international men’s basketball, it’s the only remaining team with a loss in this tournament. In the semifinals, Team USA will face an Australian team that eased through its group stage games, then blew out Argentina 97-59 in the quarterfinals. San Antonio Spurs guard Patty Mills has led Australia throughout the tournament and scored 18 points in the win over Argentina. Three teams remain undefeated into medal rounds Australia will come into the semifinal feeling confident. The Australians beat the US 91-83 in that exhibition in July, and feature a roster with enough NBA talent to trouble the Americans. Mills leads an attack that could exploit Team USA’s defensive weaknesses as well. In any case, Australia says it isn’t the least bit intimidated by the United States in 2021. “We know a lot about them,” Houston Rockets guard Dante Exum told reporters. “We’ve played them and obviously they’ve got the hype of being Team USA. But we have to just go in and play our game and we know what we have to do. It’s just them versus us. There’s only five on the court at a time and we can play defense and only one of them can have the ball at a time.” Olympic Basketball Odds – Men’s Semifinals (via FanDuel Sportsbook) USA (-12) vs. Australia Slovenia (-2.5) vs. France An Australia win wouldn’t stun the world, but Team USA remains a solid favorite heading into the semifinal. FanDuel Sportsbook rates the United States as a 12-point favorite over the Australians. Matters won’t get any easier for whichever team advances to the gold medal game. In the other semifinal, Slovenia (-2.5) faces France in a battle of undefeated teams. France already has a win over the United States, while Slovenia has never lost an international game with Luca Doncic on the roster.

Joy Fellowship Worship Center is a diverse community of Christ-followers changing our world. We are making an increase in DEVELOPING the Gifts of Grace for the WORK OF THE MINISTRY...Edifying ALL. (Ephesians 4:7-16) ​ We are about developing the GIFTS of GRACE so we can be a true reflection of God’s ultimate intention for each of us: Christ-likeness. In doing so, we can go out and REACH many and impart to them GOD'S GRACE so they too can develop the gifts of GRACE for the WORK of the MINISTRY, EDIFYING ALL. This is a journey we are on together, committed to God and each other as we learn and develop to live according to the teachings of the Bible. We welcome everyone to come and explore our diverse community of CHRIST-FOLLOWERS. We gather on Sundays at 10 am in our main sanctuary to worship and celebrate all the ways God has been showing up in our lives during the week. Our LEADERSHIP What we believe 1- the Trinity The Trinity is the testimony of both the Old and New Testaments and of the Christian Church that God is both One and Triune. The biblical revelation testifies that there is only one God and that He is eternally existent in three persons—Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. -God the Father is the creator and sustainer of all things, and He created the universe in love. He created man in His own image for fellowship and called man back to Himself through Christ after the rebellion and fall of man. -The Son Jesus Christ is eternally God. He was together with the Father and the Holy Spirit from the beginning, and through Him, all things were made. For man’s redemption, He left heaven and became incarnate by the Holy Spirit through the virgin Mary; henceforth, He is forever one Christ with two natures—God and man—in one person. -The Holy Spirit is God, the Lord, and giver of life, who was active in the Old Testament and given to the Church in fullness at Pentecost. He empowers the saints for service and witness, cleanses man from the old nature and conforms us to the image of Christ. The baptism in the Holy Spirit, subsequent to conversion, releases the fullness of the Spirit and is evidenced by the fruits and gifts of the Holy Spirit. 2- The Scripture We affirm that the Bible, containing the Old and New Testaments, is alone the only infallible, inspired Word of God and that its authority is ultimate, final, and eternal. It cannot be added to, subtracted from, or superseded in any regard. The Bible is the source of all doctrine, instruction, correction, and reproof. It contains all that is needed for guidance in godliness and practical Christian conduct. 3- The Atonement Christ’s vicarious death on the cross paid the penalty for the sins of the whole world, but its benefits are only applicable to those who receive Jesus as their personal Savior. Healing—body, soul, and spirit—and all of God’s provisions for His saints, are provided for in the atonement, but these must be appropriated. 4- Salvation The Word of God declares clearly that salvation is a free gift of God, based on the merits of the death of His Son, and is appropriated by faith. Salvation is effected by personal repentance, belief in the Lord Jesus (justification), and personal acceptance of Him into one’s life as Lord and Savior (regeneration). The new life in Christ includes the privileges of adoption and inheritance in the kingdom of God’s beloved Son. Salvation is an act of free will in response to God’s personal love for mankind. It is predestined only in the sense that God, through His omniscience, foreknew those who would choose Him. It is secure in the eternal, unchanging commitment of God who does not lie and is forever the same. Salvation should produce an active lifestyle of loving obedience and service to Jesus Christ our Savior. 5- The Christian Life We believe that the Scriptures portray the life of the saint in this world to be one of balance between what is imputed to us as Christians and what is imparted to us according to our faith and maturity. Hence, God’s provision for His children is total, and the promises are final and forever. The shortcomings of the individual and of the Church are because of the still progressing sanctification of the saints. The Christian life is filled with trials, tests, and warfare against a spiritual enemy. For those abiding in Christ until their deaths or His return, the promises of eternal blessing in the presence of God are assured. To remain faithful through all circumstances of life requires dependence upon the Holy Spirit and a willingness to die to personal desires and passions. 6- The Church The goal of the Church is to make disciples of all nations and to present the saints complete in Christ. The five-fold ministry of Ephesians 4 governs the Church, the offices of elder and deacon, as well as other offices mentioned in scripture. Church policy is a balance between congregation and eldership authority, emphasizing the final authority of the Church leadership. It is essential to the life of the Church that scriptural patterns of discipline are practiced and that oversight for Church discipline, individual and corporate, is exercised by the leadership of the Church. 7- Baptism & the Lord’s Supper The Word of God enjoins on the Church two perpetual ordinances of the Lord Jesus Christ. The first, baptism, is the outward sign of what God has already done in the individual’s life and is a testimony to all that the person now belongs to Jesus. It is identification with Jesus and is effected in the name of the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit. The Lord’s Supper is a commemoration of the death of the Lord and is done in remembrance of Him until He comes again; it is a sign of our participation in Him. Both institutions are restricted to those who are believers. 8- Eschatology We affirm the bodily, personal, second coming of the Lord Jesus Christ, the resurrection of the saints, the millennium, and the final judgment. The final judgment will determine the eternal status of both the saints and the unbelievers, determined by their relationship to Jesus Christ. We affirm with the Bible the final state of the new heavens and the new earth.
