to the
1964 cost of 19s/11d (near £1). The marketing had also
changed. Gratispool now claimed their colour film to be 'Free',
by virtue of supplying a 10/- (50p) refund voucher when a customers
sent 10/- for their first film (still or cine). Thus, the customer's
total outlay for a set of 35mm colour slides, including a replacement
film, was 21/-, even if they had never used the service previously.
This colourful advert
contains the details.

RHS (above) is a school photo
frame with the Gratispool name; found here.The Gratispool International
Schools Div'n was started in 1966 by Nigel Stead.
It visited schools 'from John O'Groats to Cardiff.' The story
of how the Schools Division went from photographing 4,000 children
in 1966 to 500,000 in 1974 is told in Issue 4, of 'interVIEW',
The Journal of the Gratispool Group, started in 1973-74.

In September1967, another approach to capturing the
colour negative film processing market was organised by Ron Houslip when he arranged the
trial distribution of 'mailing envelopes' for people to send
in their colour print films for processing, with a 'free' Kodacolor
film supplied with the prints. This idea stemmed from a sample
envelope Martin brought back from a business trip to the States;
the envelope was also the advertising medium. The approach had
the advantage of not requiring a premium brand film to be offered
'up front'; only after a customer had committed to using the
processing service. Since this marketing approach was different
to previous, and the Steads were not certain whether it would
be successful, they used an anonymous company name, 'Free Film Service' (FFS).

Some 100,000 colour print mailing
envelopes were distributed which encouraged users to return their
films to


this
film is correct in size and type BEFORE opening the carton.
Films in broken cartons cannot be accepted for exchange".

The 120 panchromatic b&w roll film
carton shown above presumably dates
from maybe 1968, as the film inside the carton had the
later (new improved) 125ASA speed rating, rather than the original
100ASA. The same carton contained the mailing envelope shown
alongside.

Martin Stead has advised me
of the reason for the unusual Gratispool address. "As b&w
business diminished there was quite a bit of consolidation in
the processing trade and many photofinishers subcontracted their
b&w work, which gave a worthwhile volume to those who continued
to do it. In the case of Gratispool an arrangement was made with
Charles Plant, who had a lab' in Chester called NAP (Northern
Associated Photofinishers, I think). In those days traditional
photofinishers were a bit shy aboutin Ireland, located in the city of Dublin. It was a major
expansion for Gratispool which took advantage of greatly reduced
corporation tax offered by the Irish government, phased out over
the next 15 years. It became one of the largest laboratories
for processing 35mm film and the new (in May 1963) 126 film cartridge
(same film width as 35mm) announced by Kodak for their Instamatic
camera range; many film and camera manufacturers subsequently
adopted the 126 format. The laboratory incorporated a very efficient
and productive layout (conceived by Martin Stead and implemented
by Alex Smith and Tom Madden, peviously Head Chemist) and used
mostly US manufactured equipment to produce millions of colour
prints. Geoffrey and Edrei moved to Dublin at this time, purchased
accommodation and became personally involved in the commissioning
of the new laboratory and its subsequent operation.

By 1971over


60 million Free Film Service (FFS)
envelopes were distributed in the UK during a single photographic
season - all promoting the idea of taking pictures on Kodacolor
film but then encouraging the film to be sent to FFS for processing
by the offer of a 'free' replacement Kodacolor film with the
processed prints. To put the matter in context, 60 million envelopes
distributed meant an investment of well over a quarter million
pounds. The earlier FFS envelopes had a picture of Ron Houslip
on them, it being Ron who started the FFS venture in September
1967 (see above).

Some items of
FFS literature (left and above) found on this web page. Notice that on the yellow
FFS 'Guide to Better Pictures', another name, Speedisnaps Ltd
is mentioned - maybe a forerunner to SupaSnapS ? (see below).

Below is a Free
Film Service envelopecompanies: in
Holland (managed by Mr Van Haeften from 1968), Belgium and France.
They collected films by mail order which were flown to Gratispool
labs in the UK (though Gratispool eventually acquired a laboratory
in Holland, at Zootermeer, called 'Sanders Laboratorium') and
Ireland (Finglas, from 1970, see above).

Left is a 127 sized black &
white (b&w) panchromatic film in a Free Film Service, Maidenhead,
carton (looking very much like a Kodak Kodacolor carton). This
confirms that FFS were also returning 'own brand' b&w films
to any customers sending in their b&w films for processing.

Processing of b&w films
was likely being carried out either by NAP at Chester (see the
yellow Altrincham address envelope above) or (later) by the Fencolor
lab' in Cambridge.

Right is a 126 cartridge black
& white panchromatic film in a 'Free Film Service' carton.
The film has an ASA


(ISO) speed of 125. The expiry date is April
1975, so likely manufactured around 1972. The small document
accompanying the film mentions Free Film Service (UK) Ltd laboratories
in London (probably Cambridge), Glasgow C1, Amsterdam, Brussels
and Paris (see paragraph above), concerning Richard Stead)

Also during
1971, Gratispool acquired
Colour Print Express Ltd. (CPE) that had attempted to follow
down the Free Film Service road. CPE was immediately organised
to be a market competitor for Free Film Service. Two new concepts
were introduced. First, daringly, costs were invoiced when the
processed film was returned - for the first time ever either
here or in the USA. Further, in addition to national door-to-door
distribution, an envelope was included with 'Woman's Own' magazine.
Both of these operations were destined to set national trends.

Gratispool
~ SupaSnapS

During the 1970s (post-1975)
Ron Houslip, while on the Gratispool board inlower cost of SupaSnapS seemed to better
satisfy their customers. Over the weekend, when fewer films were
handed in for processing (it was Sunday closing in those days),
the laboratories were kept in operation printing films received
from mailing envelopes.

In 1977, Martin Stead, the last of the 'Stead
family' to be Managing Director & Chairman of Gratispool,
resigned his position, but remained as a non-executive director
and was closely involved with his successors Paul Malton, who
became Managing Director having been Financial Director for some
years, and Ron Houslip, who became
Chairman.

Agfa had played a significant
part in the growth of Gratispool because the new laboratories
and equipment needed significant capital investment (splicers,
film processors, notchers, printers, paper processors and print
finishing equipment) all of which Agfa supplied via a "bundled
paper contract" where the printing materials included a
price element that covered the


substantial part of the photofinishing
market moved from mail order to High St retail. 3M did not want
to make further capital investment (even mini-labs were hardly
profitable) and exited the activity, having first closed (post-1984)
the laboratories in Blackpool (serving 114 SupaSnapS shops) and
Cambridge (the Fencolor Laboratory Ltd, Coldhams Road).

The remnant Gratispool businesses,
being the SupaSnapS stores and the laboratories in Glasgow, Reading
and Northampton, were sold to Dixons Colour Laboratories who
(possibly as part of the deal) continued to buy SupaSnapS branded
film from 3M.

The pictures below
show various SupaSnapS promotional cameras, taking 126 or 110
cartridges. With the cameras shown, the film cartridge does not
fit entirely within the camera body; only sufficient is covered
to form a light seal around the film gate aperture of the cartridge.
Their open frame viewfinders fold flat when notin use.These & similar cameras can
be seen at this web site. Their design is attributed
to The Arts Institute
At Bournemouth, with dates from the 1980s to c1990.

Evidently the same
plastic cameras as used by SupaSnapS were also used in other
promotions. Here is one labelled 'Hanimex MICRO 110'. Hanimex
was an Australian company marketing mainly budget priced photographic
items. Thanks to the Marriott
World website
for the information that the name Hanimex was derived
from HANnes IMport EXport, with the Hannes part derived from
the name of its founder, Jack Hannes, who started importing European
cameras into Australia after 1945. By the 1950s, budget cameras
and photographic accessories bearing the Hanimex name started
appearing in the UK. Jack Hannes died while skiing in Switzerland,
31st January 2005.

Below are two more SupaSnaps
promotional cameras, both taking 126 'Instamatic' cartridges.

market.

In mid-1998, the Sketchley
/ SupaSnapS business was sold to the Swiss-owned Minit Group
(founded
in Belgium in 1957), for £1.23 million. Minit, best
known (at the time) for key cutting and shoe repairs, said they
would retain the SupaSnapS brand and offer a 'services supermarket'
from shoe and watch repairs to dry cleaning and film processing,
all under one roof. In July 1999, Amateur Photographer magazine
tested the quality of colour film developing & printing via
various sources, and included a High Street SupaSnaps store.
AP judged their results (on that occasion) to be very poor, in
contrast to a previous survey, May the same year, when SupaSnaps
had performed much better.

An internet search (early 2007)
suggested some SupaSnaps stores might (then) still exist, with
a few still operating out of Sketchley shops. MisterMinit shops
still exist (2016), offering many, and more, of the services
predicted in 1998, though not dry cleaning. And their photo'
trade seemingly consists of providing small ID photos for e.g.
passports and driving licences.

Andy Ensor, who worked for
SupaSnapS at Martineau Way, Birmingham from 1985 through to 2000
and experienced the 3M, Dixons and Sketchley years, told me that
the SupaSnapS working environment was a very happy one, though
it became progressively less so as the years went by, the ownership
changed and the business shrank into just Sketchleys. Below are
pictures of Martineau Way during the era when Sketchley owned
SupaSnapS. The right hand picture shows the shop staff with a
SupaSnapS marketing idea 'Snap Man'.

Andy started work in the processing
laboratory at Martineau Way, which at the time (1985) was HUGE.
This facility continued but eventually encompassed the


new mini-lab
technology. Three mini-labs were installed, each one slightly
smaller in size than its predecessor, and each requiring less
and less technical knowledge. Finally the shop was demolished
to make way for a Sainsbury's supermarket.

The Gratispool laboratories,
which had been purchased from Dixons in a Management Buy-Out,
passed to Kodak but even they (c2002) decided to exit
from photoprocessing because of the effect digital was having
on their conventional film business. Kodak developed different
ways of selling film, paper and chemical products via contracts
including the supply of equipment and quality control to e.g.
film processing facilities within multi-product retail stores.
Their silver halide colour paper is also used in "digital
print processors" where customers insert memory cards etc,
select the required size and number of prints and then receive
'true' photographic prints with improved dye stability compared
in ink jet.

Much of thelatter part of
this Gratispool story has come to me from Farquhar McKenzie,
a former SupaSnapS and Gratispool UK Director, who moved from
the Finglas Laboratories, Dublin, to International Photofinishers
at St Margarets Place, Glasgow, then to Dixons Photo at Stevenage
and thence to Kodak, at their Processing Laboratories at Hemel
Hempstead. Farquhar subsequently moved through the Eastman Kodak
organisation; its EAMER Photofinishing business took him into
Europe (and wider global responsibilities) and to some of the
Qualex managed laboratories in the US.

A number of ex-employees of
Gratispool naturally moved to careers with similar photoprocesssing
companies e.g Klick (still trading, Dec. 2006), Colorama
(still trading), BonusPrint (still trading), Truprint (still
trading) and Photo Trade Processing (PTP), which subsequently
became Dixons Photo Processing before they too exited the business.

By this dispersion of quality
photofinising operatives, Gratispool's legacy was to influence
most of the photo' processing


charge.

William St. Glasgow C3 premises to 12 St.Margaret's Place Glasgow
C1. The extreme left hand envelope is from William St dated June
1954. The magenta envelope is St Margaret's Place, also June

The 31°Scheiner film speed
(100ASA) was considered quite high speed in the 1950s and box
camera were pre-set by their makers to give rather more exposure
than necessary with 100ASA film if the light was very bright.
Even so, the advice to "only take distant views in dull
weather..." seems unnecessarily pessimistic and may have
contributed to failures, or at least dull and uninteresting pictures,
without the benefit of shadows beingFilm Service" for slides were all CR-50.

The film speed was 19DIN = 64ASA
(ISO)

Keith learned
of the 'Ferrania connection' when (later) a friend gave him a
"Gratispool International" film which was (by then)
rated at 64ASA. He remembers sending this to Gratispool for processing
and subsequently became aware that the film's edge identifier
was the same as on a 3M Ferrania CR50. By 1970/71, Keith
was processing "Gratispool International" film himself
using CR50 chemistry, satisfied that (by then) Gratispool 35mm
transparency film was indeed Ferrania CR50. The film above was
probably manufactured around 1970 as it has an August 1972 expiry
date.

Although CR50 had an 'official'
speed rating of 50ASA, it was conducive to uprating by modified
processing (which might explain why Gratispool claimed it to
be 64ASA). Its possible Gratispool sold CR50 as 64ASA to obscure
its true identity or to claim


Problems in resection of chest wall sarcomas.
To illustrate the problems of reconstruction in major chest wall resection, five patients with a variety of soft tissue tumors of the chest wall, located at different sites, are presented. Patients, who underwent a lateral or posterolateral chest wall resection required removal of two to five ribs sequentially as well as the adjacent soft tissue. Those who underwent an anterior chest wall resection required resection of the manubrium or the body of sternum as well as of adjacent costal cartilages. To prevent instability of the chest, herniation, and to minimize flailing, the chest defect was bridged with the use of Marlex mesh. Whenever possible, the omentum was brought into the chest cavity to increase the vascularity of the reconstruction. Since, in mostinstances, the tumors involved the skin because of previous damage from radiation therapy, extensive skin coverage was planned well in advance of resection. Pedicle skin flaps or rotation flaps were used to cover the skin defect. Ventilatory support by volume respirator, was required for three to four days. In all patients, the chest wall was completeley stable after three to six weeks.

They adhere to an ultraconservative theology, by which they regard the state of holiness as a work of grace subsequent to conversion or justification, and practice “speaking in other tongues as the Spirit gives utterance.”

The revival began in the Great Smoky Mountains (northwest Georgia and eastern Tennessee) in 1886 under the leadership of R.G. Spurling and his son, who were Baptists, and W.F. Bryant, a Methodist. Members of the revival were organized into the Christian Union, changed their name


to the Holiness Church (1902) and later to the Church of God (1907). In 1909 A.J. Tomlinson, an American Bible Society agent, was elected general overseer.

Splits began to occur in 1917, when the Chattanooga congregation seceded and took the name of the Original Church of God, Inc. Other divisions followed and numerous independent groups were formed.

When Tomlinson died in 1943, disputes between his sons led to further schisms. Homer A. Tomlinson set up the Church of God, World Headquarters, at Queens Village, N.Y.; and his brother Milton became head of the Cleveland, Tenn., group. Another branch in Cleveland became known as the Church of God of Prophecy.

MNANGAGWA METER LAUNCHED

A website called Mnangagwameter has been
launched with a mission to collate, track and
analyze promises made by President Mnangagwa
since his first day in office. No longer will an
incumbent President make promises that remain
unfulfilled or remain forgotten in the depths of
Google and recycled newspaper.
The man behind this initiative, Vusi Nyamazana, a
Political Scientist, introduces this novel government
watchdog tool that's unlike anything else found in
Zimbabwe. "The website is a non-partisan resource
that is useful to all people, regardless of political
viewpoint, who are interested in monitoring the
accomplishments of President Mnangagwa in an
unfiltered manner." says Nyamazana.
Vusi Nyamazana
What inspired Nyamazana to introduce the website
is that increasingly, Zimbabweans are losing faith in
politics. The biggest reason for this is the seemingly
unrealistic, empty and unfulfilled promises. "How
can anyone keep faith in politics whilst thereare
such confusing pile of conflicting pile of conflicting
views on the government's progress?" he says .
"If we want a strong and responsive democracy in
Zimbabwe, we need to develop a culture of
"Monitorial Citizenship", where we monitor these
promises and challenge the government where it
falls short. Civic engagement is too important to be
something we do only at elections." he adds.
On the sites homepage, there are four themes
representing the policy categories Mnangagwameter
aims to monitor, including governance, economy,
social issues, and industry & commerce. Within
each category, are the individual verifiable promises
President Mnangagwa made through policy
positions or in news media.
Nyamazana laid overwhelming emphasis on
President Mnangagwa to publicly release the
Ministerial targets for the first 100 days and beyond.
"Armed with this information, the citizens can easily
assess government's progress and effectiveness in
achieving promises," he says.

Girls basketball: Redwood Valley ends BOLD's run

BOLD senior guard Carly Sigurdson drives through the Redwood Valley defense, including Makenzie Mace, right, for two of her 18 first half points in the Section 3AA-North championship game Friday at Montevideo.
Tribune photo by Rand Middleton

MONTEVIDEO — BOLD’s explosive run through the Section 3AANorth bracket ran out of powder at halftime Friday in the Montevideo High School gym. With their four seniors leading the fireworks, the Warriors had a can’tmiss first half to take a 39-28 lead on Redwood Valley. Then the clock struck midnight. The Cardinals took over the game, the BOLD offense came unglued and the No. 3 seed in the North blew by the No. 4 Warriors 65-53 for the sub-section championship. Redwood Valley, which beat BOLD61-51 in the season opener, burned the Warriors 37-14 the second half. The Cardinals moved the ball with purpose, turned up the defensive pressure and sank 17 of 20 free throws. The Warriors had led by as many as 16 in the first half, 32-16. Carly Sigurdson, BOLD’s all-time leading scorer with over 2,000 points, had 18 points by halftime on breakaways, drives and long jump shots. In the second half, the fifthyear starter had only a free throw fighting through a box-and-one implemented by Cardinals coach Trevor Wittwer. The Cardinals sizzled in the second half, feeding on BOLD turnovers, some provoked, some not. Alison Curry hit a deuce and then a free throw to tie the game at 42-all, and Makenzie Mace followed with a 3-pointer from


the side at the 12:00 mark and Redwood had the lead for good. It was one of four treys in the comeback. "They are not known for shooting threes," said BOLD coach Brian Kingery. "We made only five baskets the second half and 3 of 6 at the line. It was a tale of two halves." Cardinals junior guard Lauren Hanson scored 22 for Redwood. Mace, another junior, had 14 points and sophomore reserve Nicole Bunting was good for 10 more. Baylie Kubesh ended her 1,000-point career with a 10-point night. Andrea Maher grabbed 7 rebounds and Mallarie Steffel supplied 7 points and 5 rebouds. Junior starter Ashley Schmitz had 6 points and reserve Allison Krause 8 points.

This thing about Nazgul being hardly consistent in the material world, because they are ghost, and frodo going in the spirit's world when he's stabbed by them : it implies the existence of two parallel realities, connected by the beings that are existent on both, like the istaris or the balrogs.

By screwing vintage 13th Floor Elevators riffs down to trip-hop tempos, the Black Angels struck psych-rock pay dirt. The Austin, Texas-based quintet's 2006 debut, Passover, and its follow-up, Directions to See a Ghost, were sufficiently fuzzy-headed to win over a few record-store nerds, but also possessed enough head-bobbing grooves to keep college dudes from getting bored. The Black Angels' third album, Phosphene Dream, is groovier still. Recorded in Los Angeles with producer D. Sardy (Black Mountain, Holy Fuck), it finds the band peeling back the psychedelic murk and tempering its bad vibes with a hint of flower-power homage. It's about time, too. After two records of hazy drones and mid-tempo grind, the Black Angels desperately needed to hit the defog button and get some perspective.

It helps that thegroup has flushed out its Rolodex of Acceptable Psychedelic Influences. On "True Believers", frontman Alex Mass bends his voice into a spooky and near-perfect approximation of Jefferson Airplane singer Grace Slick. "Haunting at 1300 McKinley" borrows some bluesy shuffle from the Animals. "Yellow Elevator #2" slips from a spiky Pink Floyd-inspired organ hook to an eerie Odessey and Oracle-worthy outro. These are welcome additions to the band's sonic palate, but the past doesn't hold all the answers for the Black Angels. Their eerie vibe doesn't mesh very well with the hippie decade's perkier moments. "Sunday Afternoon" brings those 13th Floor Elevators riffs back up to speed, but lacks that band's cult-ish quirks. "Telephone", the album's up-tempo tambourine-fueled first single, comes off as an underdeveloped British Invasion pastiche. Or

SOUTH SALT LAKE -- Three suspicious fires in South Salt Lake early Saturday caused hundreds of thousands of dollars in damage to two LDS church buildings and an uninhabited home.

The first and most devastating fire was reported around 3:30 a.m. at an LDS meetinghouse at 3219 S. 300 East. South Salt Lake Fire Battalion Chief Terry Addison said a brick was found thrown through a window in the chapel, where the fire began.

"Right now it's looking like it is a suspicious fire," he said.

About 30 firefighters responded tothe two-alarm fire, which Addison said caused at least $300,000 to $400,000 in damage.

A second LDS church at 2702 S. Main Street caught fire a few hours after the first. The damage was less extensive, though.

"The damage is pretty extensive. The chapel in the church is destroyed quite heavily," he said. "We have smoke and water damage throughout the rest of the structure."

The second fire was reported at 6:48 a.m. at an LDS church building at 2702 S. Main Street. South Salt Lake Police confirmed there was forced entry at that building as well.

"Right now, they all appear to be arson and they are suspicious in nature," said Gary Keller, spokesman for the South Salt Lake Police Department. "It's premature to say that they would all be connected."

David


Moore, president of the Salt Lake Granite Stake, presides over the two wards that meet in the building at 3219 S. 300 East. Moore said about 450 people meet in the building each Sunday, and church officials are currently looking for other meetinghouses the congregations can go to for Sunday services.

He said local church leaders are hopeful they'll be able to repair the structure.

"We're grateful it appears the building is structurally sound," Moore said.

Kim Hibbert is a service missionary for The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints and was taking photos of the damage at the church Saturday afternoon.

Hibbert and his wife serve in the Granite Spanish Branch that meets at the chapel. Their mission ends in January, and he said it's unlikely they'll be back inthe building before their term is up.

"That means we're not coming back here, and that's sad," Hibbert said.

He was on his way to the nearby stake center for two baptisms taking place early Saturday morning when he saw the flames.

"The services weren't quite as happy as normal," he said.

David Young, president of the South Salt Lake Stake said three congregations meet at the building located at 2702 S. Main Street. In addition to Sunday services being held elsewhere, a handful of activities Saturday will have to be rescheduled or cancelled.

Two wards will move Trunk-or-Treat activities to the LDS stake center up the street at 2280 S. 300 East. A youth group with a scheduled temple trip and another group going to the zoo will find other places to


meet.

"Those are easy things," Young said. "The largest issue, of course, is cleaning the building."

Young said members and leaders are troubled by the arson, which will displace about 700 members in his stake.

"I'm saddened that anyone would feel that they would need to set a building of worship afire," he said. "It's a deep concern."

Arson has been suspected in fires at LDS church buildings elsewhere. An LDS church building in Mukileto, Wash., was destroyed by arsonists by two weeks ago.

The third South Salt Lake fire was reported at 7:12 a.m. in a vacant home at 2983 S. 500 East.

Local investigators are trying to determine exactly how the fires started and hope someone will come forward with information related to the cases. Individuals with information are asked to callThe questionable continuance of the NATO alliance after the Cold War ended is demonstrated by Turkey's reluctance to help against the rampaging group Islamic State in Iraq and Syria (ISIS). The alliance was originally supposed to defend NATO members against a Soviet attack but, in the post-Cold War era, has expanded in territory and mission (power projection to other parts of the globe). In the current "crisis," ISIS has been attacking close to Turkey in Kurdish areas along the Turkish-Syrian border and in the Kurdistan region of northern Iraq. Although the NATO allies, ever led by the United States, have pledged to defend Turkey against ISIS, as NATO's governing treaty requires for a member state, Turkey has done nothing to help the desperate Kurds fighting the group to


keep the town of Kobani on the Syrian side of the Turkish-Syrian border. As usual, the NATO alliance--which long ago became an end in itself to demonstrate U.S. power and prestige, rather than providing the United States any real security--seems rather one-sided. Of course, Turkey, with a huge and capable army deployed along its border with Syria, does not need much help in defending itself from the ragtag ISIS group with only 20,000 to 30,000 fighters in Iraq and Syria--and far fewer along Turkish borders. Finally, the United States had to coerce Turkey into at least letting allied aircraft use the large air base at Incirlik to bomb ISIS in Syria and Iraq.

One-sided and out-dated alliances aside, Turkey's seemingly strange reluctance to see the danger from ISIS shouldbe a red flag to the United States. During the Cold War and after, the hyperactive U.S. superpower has constantly seen local threats as more severe than the countries in a particular region. Yet one would think that regional actors would have a better idea of threats to themselves than a distant colossus, which often behaves like a nervous Nellie. They often do, and thus the United States has leaped into what turned out to be the quagmires of Korea, Vietnam, Pakistan/Afghanistan, and Iraq--in which the threats to the United States turned out to be vastly exaggerated. Turkey's reluctance to dive into a seeming threat right on its border should be a wake up call to halt the U.S. slide into another bog in Iraq and Syria.

Turkey is


not helping the desperate Kurds against ISIS across the border in Syria because it fears the Kurds more than it does ISIS. For decades, Turkey has been fighting a civil war with its own Kurdish population that has killed 30,000 people. The Kurds are a stateless people in Turkey, Iran, Syria, and Iraq, although they have an autonomous region in Iraq and want one in Syria--both of which the Turks also fear could embolden their own Kurds to want the same, or even independence from Turkey. The bad news for Turkey and the United States is that the most effective fighting force against ISIS has been the Kurdish PKK fighters from Turkey and its YPG Syrian affiliate--not the Peshmerga militias from the Kurdish region of Iraq or theIraqi Army, both of which had trouble against the group. However, the PKK has also fought the Turks for years, is Marxist, and is on the U.S. terrorism list.

And there's more bad news for the U.S. war effort. In Iraq, the best hope for the United States is to turn the Sunni tribes from supporting Sunni ISIS to fighting it--just as the those same tribes were turned from supporting Sunni al Qaeda in Iraq to supporting the United States during its occupation. The problem is that this trick will be difficult to achieve a second time because before, the United States promised that the U.S-backed, Shi'ite-dominated government in Iraq would allow the minority Sunnis back into the Iraqi military an government bureaucracy. Those promises were broken, and instead

After being hit by growing concerns of Britain crashing out of the European Union without a deal by Oct. 31 after Boris Johnson became prime minister last month, the pound saw a brief reprieve this week.

The Trump administration will expel almost two-thirds of Cuba's diplomatic corps in the U.S. after a series of mysterious "sonic" attacks that have affected at least 25 American personnel in Havana, according to a report.

"Cuba is not upholding its commitments of the Vienna convention, of protecting diplomats," a U.S. official told McClatchy.

The State Department has not censured Cuba over the acoustic attacks by the still unknown device or weapon, per the news organization. But it has withdrawn many of its own staff from the country and issued a travel warning after receiving several complaints of hearing loss and "cognitive issues" from diplomats and their families.

Raul Castro's regime has repeatedly denied being involved in the incidents, which started in November but weren't publicized until August.

Trends in adolescents' perceived parental communication across 32 countries in Europe and North America from 2002 to 2010.
The quality of communication with parents is a determinant of health and well-being during adolescence, being predictive of self-esteem, self-rated health and the ability to navigate health risk behaviours. This article describes trends in adolescent's (aged 11, 13 and 15 years) perception of communication with mothers and fathers by gender across 32 European and North American countries from 2002 to 2010. Analyses were performed on 425 699 records employing a General Linear Model (MANOVA). In most countries, significant increases in the prevalence of ease of communication with both mothers and fathers were observed, with the greatest positive changes over time in Estonia, Denmark and Wales. In some countries, the opposite trendas an encoder permuted output bits of the outer encoder prior to communicating the bits to the inner encoder. These permuted soft-value approximation outputs from the outer decoder approximate the bits input to the inner encoder and can therefore be used in a second iteration of the decoding process.
During the second iteration of the decoding process, the permuted soft-value approximation outputs are communicated to the inner decoder. In this regard, it should be appreciated that the inner decoder uses the permuted soft-values approximations to bits input to the inner encoder to produce refined soft-value approximations to bits input to the inner encoder.

Sometimes, it appears that the parents deliberately fuel this rivalry to seek attention from both children. Parental Expectations - "The Perfect Bachaa" tag is a very integral part of an Indian family. Every Indian parents want their son or daughter to be that perfect child. They must have the perfect education or perfect job, perfect behaviour and mannerisms, perfect family and so on. That list would never end. And often, kids find themselves suffocating under these expectations, specially if they fail to fulfil them. And one day, all that frustration explodes and in an outburst, the child would reveal to the parents that after all, he/she is not as perfect as they would


the three-act structure in the film. The characters and the problem are introduced in the first act, the problem aggravates in the second and there is a conclusion and development in each character, in the final act. But, the strength of this screenplay is its crispness and its intense long scenes. It is very interesting to observe how the tension builds up in the house during the presence of the plumber. The scene takes of from being a normal day at home to a very intense dispute between everyone in the family. And that change is gradual and does not look like a force fit. The scene at the birthday party and the final long shot with series of revelation are two great examples of interesting and captivatingMandi. Very few actors can really do that. Rajat Kapoor compliments her with a very elegant and again effortless performance. In a very brief role that mostly emanates a thoughtful silence, he conveys a lot of emotions. Rishi Kapoor as the grandfather breaths life into the movie as and when it becomes a little serious. There is not a single flaw with his comedy timing and dialogue delivery.

Coming to the three young performers in the movie who cannot be compared with the above - Alia bhatt enters the story like a fresh breeze and she elevates the story to more romantic and comedy tone. Since her first film, I have been a fan of her acting so my review on her might be a little biased. She is


extremely spontaneous and natural in her acting, which reminds me of my favourite actress Kajol. Whether it is her prankster role at the restaurant or the emotional outburst on her birthday, she gives a very believable performance.

Fawad Khan as the elder son seems to steal the sympathy and the applause for being extremely convincing in his role. It is quiet interesting to watch his voice modulation depending on the mood and the tone. He is mostly calm in nature per the character but occasionally displays this vicious anger in him. His expressions and voice perfectly modulate to match the emotion. However, occasionally, I felt that he was a little over expressive. I also found his introduction scene a little unbelievable. His English accent and smile seems pretentious. However,he is one actor to look out for and his powerful performance is specially felt in the scenes towards the climax where he very convincingly expresses his anger, sadness and helplessness.

Siddarth was a pleasant surprise for me in this film. When, I had watched "Student of the year", I had clearly noticed a superstar in both Varun and Alia. Though Siddarth was not bad in the film, I remained a little skeptical about Siddarth’s performance. It was a great debut but it seemed less believable. But, with K&S, he breaks that barrier and gives his best performance till date. A sense of maturity is clearly noticed in his acting.

Apart from these lead actors, the supporting cast also leaves behind some impressionable moments despite their short screen time. May

That disclosure alarmed U.S. national security officials, but it was not the reason for the decision to remove the CIA asset, who had provided information to the United States for more than a decade, according to the current and former officials.

Though the exfiltration might not have been directly related to the president, the report raises several troubling issues.

The body of a Toronto man missing for just over a week after a night out with friends has been located, and foul play is not suspected in his death, police say.

Dominic Kardasiewicz, 33, had been last seen on May 25 after an evening out with friends at a bar near Bloor Street West and Lansdowne Avenue. Investigators say he left on foot and stopped for a slice of pizza on his way home before disappearing.

In a tweet, Kardasiewicz's girlfriend, Rossi Gifford, said police recovered his body from Lake Ontario and that he had been deceased for a week.

Toronto police confirmed to CBC Toronto that Kardasiewicz's body was found on Saturday and that an autopsy is scheduled for Monday.

Reuters has revealed that an ethnic rebel armed group fighting Myanmar forces near the Chinese border had been openly soliciting funds via China's giant state-owned lender Agricultural Bank Of China (AgBank).

Myanmar's peace process - started under the previous semi-civilian administration - has lost momentum after Nobel Peace Prize winner Aung San Suu Kyi came to power last year. Some of the militias accuse her of taking a one-sided approach and refusing to join a major peace conference.

Relations with China have been strained by the ethnic conflicts spilling over the border, and some observers say that Beijing uses ethnically Chinese


controls aimed at stopping the global financial system being used to fund terrorism or facilitate crime.

There is no evidence that AgBank or other financial entities that handled transactions for the MNDAA have broken Chinese law.

Earlier this month, insurgents from the predominantly ethnic Chinese MNDAA attacked government troops in north-eastern Myanmar. Some 20,000 people fled across the border to China to escape the fighting, prompting Beijing to call for a ceasefire.

In a rare move, Myanmar army chief Min Aung Hlaing disclosed on his official Facebook page that he had summoned the Chinese ambassador and defence attache on Tuesday to discuss the conflict and how to cooperate to bring about peace and stability.

This film, which I stumbled onto in Netflix and seems to have been an IFC production, turned out to be a fascinating documentary about Z Channel, an early cable network dedicated to cinema in its truest sense. Run by Jerry Harvey, a mentally ill and personally challenged genius of film appreciation, the network ran from the mid-1970’s to the late 1980’s only in the greater Los Angeles area. It was an amazing thing, something that must have been fantastic in its times as many of the interviewees attest. It’s a great, great shame that it never became nationwide and the loss of it and its leader really has been a loss for the United States and the world for film


of the work.

One of the reasons that this film is better than Schlock!, is simply that it doesn’t use any narrative voiceover to try and explain things. The only real analyst of the content from a modern perspective is an interview with Frank Henenlotter, a film historian and a somewhat notable trash filmmaker in his own right, director of Frankenhooker (1990), Brain Damage (1988), and Basket Case (1982). Henenlotter is actually quite amusing in his riffing knowledge of the oevre.

The film captures its subjects late in life, octo- and septagenarians (actually catching Sonney only a year before his death) and besides trying to create the history of their work and contextualize their films and lives, it also focuses on the present of the film, 2001, and has manyas a strong contender against that train of thought, so since it had been lined up for so long, I decided to give it a whirl.

The film tries to take a non-political slant, but rather tell the story from the perspective of the soldiers that lived through it or died through it. And it is fairly successful in that. The film has many central characters and none that truly dominate the spotlight. The fear and chaos is depicted in a visceral way. The situation that the soldiers find themselves in is inherently impossible and fraught with untold peril. And yet, the reason that everything goes wrong starts small and spirals into two days of bloody combat. The film is gritty and quite bloody and gruesome, as per the

Outstanding Young Men Selected

The board of advisers for the Outstanding Young Men of America awards program has announced that three Webster Countians have beenapparent disregard of its own fiscal rules. In the domestic market, the biggest winners were the construction and real estate infrastructure development sectors; the cost of urban renovation alone between 2012-2015 is estimated at $18 billion. Up to 35 percent of the annual state budget during the oil boom years was allocated to infrastructure and construction projects.

A circle of local construction firms, subcontractors, banks, and offshore shell companies linked to powerful figures from within the elite network serves as the main channel of petrodollar recycling. The extent to which an oil exporting country has the capacity to spend all the oil receipts at once represents that country’s absorptive capacities. Investment was hard pressed to go toward human capital, which in Azerbaijan is marked by generally low levels of


by Azeri elites and oligarchs to boost their real estate projects and their business interests in the construction and services industries. The plan of modernization articulated and pursued by the Baku government was remarkably similar to the one embraced by the Gulf states, which included a vision in which the state would facilitate turning Baku into a modern metropolis and a major transportation hub with high-rise buildings, modern shopping malls, luxury boutiques and techno-parks, all of which would presumably provide the state with sufficient fiscal revenue when it runs out of oil in 15 to 20 years.

The unusually long period of high oil prices between 2004 to mid-2014 provided a conducive environment to realize this vision. First, the idea was to upgrade infrastructure (roads, highways, gas stations, airports).“an archipelago of 55 artificial islands in the Caspian Sea with thousands of apartments, at least eight hotels, a Formula One racetrack, a yacht club, an airport, and the tallest building on earth (“Azerbaijan Tower”). Launched toward the end of the oil boom cycle by the Avesta Concern company that has an obscure ownership structure, it was completely abandoned once oil surpluses faded through 2015-16.

International Linkages

Foreign capital tends to flow into places that enjoy Western strategic interests. Over the past five to six years, the U.S. government has been losing its interest in Central Asia and the Caucasus while Russia has been trying to reassert its dominant role. As Fiona Hill and her colleagues noted:

“2010 marked the end of the long phase of focused U.S. attention, including in


Caspian energy development. As political and commercial attention shifted from the export of Azeri oil to the export of gas to Turkish and European markets, the United States ceded the stage in regional energy diplomacy.”

This disengagement will likely continue under the Trump administration given his isolationist rhetoric regarding U.S. foreign policy and his personal sympathy for Russian President Vladimir Putin.

Low oil prices will dampen foreign investment in the Caspian region. Structural changes in global energy markets, with a notable increase in supply from new producers in the Americas (including the United States), may also discourage investment in overseas markets. As global financial flows bypass the region following the loss of strategic importance, there is a high risk that Azerbaijan will be further marginalized. Attracting foreign direct investment (FDI)lobbying activities in the United States.

From 2012 to 2016, Azerbaijan hosted several major entertainment and sporting events, including the Eurovision Song Contest, European Olympic Games, and Formula 1 Grand Prix. In the United States, the Azeri government has hired lobbying firms (such as the Podesta Group) to promote its interests in the U.S. Congress. Most recently, amid falling oil prices, the Azerbaijan state oil company, SOCAR, funded and gave expensive gifts to ten Congress members and their staff to participate in a trip to Baku.

In December 2016, following the victory of Donald Trump, the Azerbaijan embassy in Washington threw a Hanukkah party with the participation of the influential American Jewish group, Conference of Presidents, and chose the Trump Hotel in Washington, DC, to host the event. The timing


in the region is likely to diminish even further. Azerbaijan will thus be hard-pressed to diversify, and its diversification drive is unlikely to receive the support it needs from state-dependent private sector elites.

If today four European tourists were murdered brutally in Punjab, there would be an outpouring of rage. What if a British woman, a defenceless schoolteacher, was brutally assaulted by several men with sticks while she was riding her bicycle? We would all be outraged.

But in that fateful summer of 1919, this was not the case. The Indians who gathered at Jallianwala Bagh on April 13, 1919 were not particularly bothered about the assault that had happened on Miss Sherwood just two days ago. Their hearts had been hardened by the inhumanity of the British Empire that they had been facing for decades.

SAN JOSE — A South Bay man is suing a former den master he claims sexually abused him in 2008 and the local Boy Scouts of America council for allegedly not intervening beforehand despite obvious warning signs.

The man at the center of the civil lawsuit, Ronald Guinto, was convicted in January of 87 of 90 counts in a separate East Bay case involving child molestation, kidnapping and dissuading his victims from testifying against him. Prosecutors said Guinto used his position as a teacher at Making Waves Academy in Richmond and founder of a youth program called Camp Epic to molest boys.

John N. McDougall | January 19, 2005

Tracing the path of integration back to the Cold War, John N. McDougall, (University of Western Ontario), argues that the determination to reduce the practical significance of the border between Canada and the US among most Canadian business leaders was intensified rather than caused by 9/11. The contest between Canada’s national ideas and the position of commercial and economic convenience has been tilting away from the former and toward the latter since well before the election of 1988.

Deeper integration does not require creating common decision-making structures such as those of the European Union. Canada and the US do not need to transfer significant authority to a central institution; they can, theoretically, accomplish economic integration through mutual


List of Tour de Ski men's overall winners

This is a list of the Tour de Ski men's overall winners. The Tour de Ski is an annual cross-country skiing event held annually since the 2006–07 season in Central Europe, modeled on the Tour de France of cycling. The Tour de Ski is a Stage World Cup event in the FIS Cross-Country World Cup. Each Tour de Ski has consisted of six to nine stages, held during late December and early January in the Czech Republic, Germany, Italy, and Switzerland.

The skier with the lowest aggregate time at the end of each day wears the yellow bib, representing the leader of the overall standings. There are one other bib as well: the red bib, worn by the leader of the'West Azerbaijan Diabetes Association' members as well as some patients in Uremia city hospitals. Qualitative content analysis demonstrated two original category from effective barriers on good QoL: (1) external world barriers on good QoL (problems in family, social perspective about diabetes and problems in school), (2) Individual barriers on good QoL (negative feeling toward treatment and care, negative effects of Diabetes and uncertainty about future). Also it was shown that, cultural believes, such more controls and limitations the various aspects of the behaviour and life of girls compared with boys sometimes had negative effects on QoL. As most paediatric teams are multidisciplinary, sharing the information regarding QoL barriers as part of ongoing clinical care is crucial and should help to tailor care to the needs of the adolescent


on the underside of her ass, just below the back pockets of her jeans. I started rubbing her ass, gently with little squeezes now and then. She was enjoying herself, letting out little moans and gasps, and getting more aggressive when we kissed.

Eventually I slid my hands into the back pockets of her jeans. With less fabric between my hands and her ass, I couldn't help but give her ass a good squeeze with both hands. I wasn't disappointed. She let out her loudest moan yet, and I was delighted with the feel of her ass. Soft, and forming into my hands as I gripped it, I was becoming possessed by lust for this beautiful woman.

As I would grip her ass, she would press herself into me, andthe lips of her pussy, her resistance melted away.

My focus then was entirely on rubbing her pussy over her jeans. As I did, she moaned and groaned and gasped, rocking her hips into my hand, spreading her legs wide, pulling away from me, only to come crashing back down on my hand. Her hands gripped her the door handle, my leg, her breasts, or sat idly in the air as I brought her closer and closer to ecstasy. She grabbed my hand, using it to urge my fingers harder and faster into her pussy.

As she came I continued rubbing, slowly letting her come down.

She grinned at me and we kissed.

I moved my hand to her chest, under her shirt and began to play with her breast. I had


never felt a bare breast under my hand before, and I was in heaven. I squeezed her amazingly soft breast, playing with the nipple, and tried to get it out of her shirt so I could see it, to no success.

I brought her to orgasm two more times before taking her home, with a giant blister on my finger from rubbing her damp jeans for so long.

That was the last time I saw her. I kept trying to get her to come out. Eventually she gave me a BS excuse about me not seeming that into her, and said we should just be friends. I made a last ditch attempt to win her over by surprising her with flowers. She called me a stalker, and told me toRadio K Minneapolis Play List September 2007

did not avoid the Jewish issue entirely.

In November 2010, Glenn Beck went on the warpath against George Soros. He identified Soros as the son of a Hungarian Jew and as a currency-manipulator and profiteer and funder of leftist causes, trying to bring a “new world order”: In his two-part exposé of Soros, called “The Puppet Master,” Beck said: “Along with currencies, Soros also collapses regimes. With his Open Society Fund … Soros has helped fund the Velvet Revolution in the Czech Republic, the Orange Revolution in the Ukraine, the Rose Revolution in Georgia. He also helped to engineer coups in Slovakia, Croatia, and Yugoslavia. So what is his target now? Us. America.”

Glenn Beck had a running feud with Jewish Funds for Justice during most of 2010, which culminatedon 27 January 2011 when the organization posted a full-page advertisement in the Wall Street Journal (owned by Rupert Murdoch) bearing the names of 400 rabbis urging that Beck be punished for his statements

With his unambiguous advocacy of support for the State of Israel per se, Beck was even able to get away with offending significant numbers of Jews. Being widely perceived as something of an anti-Semite, from 2009 to 2011, did not get Beck fired from Fox News, so long as he did not run afoul of the Zionist agenda. By early 2011, Beck’s criticism of George Soros’ regime-changing activities expanded into criticism of the Zionists’ regime-changing plans for the Middle East. (On his radio show, also in early 2011, Beck likened Reform Judaism to Radical Islam,


but he subsequently apologized.) At that point Beck suddenly got a stab in the back at Fox News.

William Kristol became a critic of Glenn Beck after Beck spoke disparagingly of the democratic uprising in Egypt which was a continuation of the Neoconservatives’ PNAC agenda:

When Glenn Beck rants about the caliphate taking over the Middle East from Morocco to the Philippines, and lists (invents?) the connections between caliphate-promoters and the American left, he brings to mind no one so much as Robert Welch and the John Birch Society. He’s marginalizing himself, just as his predecessors did back in the early 1960s. Nor is it a sign of health when other American conservatives are so fearful of a popular awakening that they side with the dictator against the democrats. [WilliamADL. Twenty-two years ago (1990) Pat Buchanan blamed U.S. military intervention against Iraq on organized Zionist pressure. He said on The McLaughlin Group: “There are only two groups that are beating the drums for war in the Middle East: the Israeli Defense Ministry and its amen corner in the United States.” A few days later he named some members of that amen corner: A.M. Rosenthal, Richard Perle, Charles Krauthammer, and Henry Kissinger — all Jews.

Reaction came in the form of a column by A.M. Rosenthal in the New York Times accusing Buchanan of anti-Semitism and “blood libel.” Rosenthal declared that he had seen signs of Buchanan’s anti-Semitism previously but had only decided to speak publicly about it when Buchanan made his comment in opposition to the Zionist war.


Thereafter Eric Breindel at the New York Post attacked Buchanan. Richard Cohen at the Washington Post called Buchanan insensitive. William F. Buckley. accused Buchanan of insensitivity but also accused Rosenthal of overreacting. Jacob Weisberg in the New Republic argued that “Buchanan’s entire world view is deeply disturbing . . . in a distinct sense, fascistic.” (The New York Post’s non-Jewish writer Scott McConnell denounced Buchanan at the time but later repented and aligned himself with Buchanan.)

What were the “signs of anti-Semitism” that Rosenthal had observed before 1990? In 1983 Buchanan began defending John Demjanjuk, arguing that it was a case of mistaken identity, By 1987 Buchanan had decided that there was no Ivan the Terrible at Treblinka. In 1990, he noted that diesel engines, supposedly the murder-weapon usedWelcome to British Invasion Radio: The Music that Rocked a Generation

At present, tourists come to Elephanta by boat from Mumbai’s Gateway of India.

According to the Archaeological Survey of India, the Elephanta Caves date back to the third century CE. The name Elephanta was given by the Portuguese to the caves because of the sculpture of the huge elephant that greets visitors to the spot.A telecommunications equipment cabinet may contain backup batteries for use upon failure of an external power source. Such a cabinet also contains a rectifier which ordinarily receives AC current from the external power source, and a bus bar through which the telecommunications equipment is interconnected with the batteries and the rectifier. The bus bar and a support structure for the bus bar are assembled together as a unit separate from the cabinet and the other contents of the cabinet. Such a unit is referred to as a battery termination panel.
A known battery termination panel extends horizontally between a pair of mounting brackets in the cabinet. The support structure includes a rectangular front wall with mounting tabs at its opposite ends. The mounting tabs on the front wall are


 The will was drafted by Mr. Pursell, and the testator received advice from both Mr. Pursell
and Mr. Whisenant regarding the method of compensation for the executors and trustees. The will
contained several bequests of specific property to named individuals, and directed that the remainder
of the estate’s assets, which included the stock in FWC, should be placed in the M.L. Wakefield
Family Trust. That trust was to be terminated prior to the eleventh anniversary of the testator’s
death.

        The will also directed the co-trustees to continue to operate FWC as its board of directors
until the trust was terminated. The company had not previously had a board of directors, with the
testator having exclusive control of its management and operation. The will specified that the
directors couldto Appellants for the
several fiduciary positions during the approximately thirty months from the testator’s death in
December 1994 until their resignation as co-executors, co-trustees, and company directors, in late
June of 1997. During that period, Appellants and their firms were paid a total of $623,114 for their
services in several capacities: executors and trustees, directors of the company, attorney and
accountant for the estate, and attorney and accountant for the company. Mr. Pursell or his firm was
paid a total of $311,707. Mr. Whisenant or his firm received a total of $311,407.

        Each was paid $50,000 in executor and trustee fees in accordance with the agreed order
approving the initial interim fee request. In addition, each received substantial payments for their
services as directors of FWC, with Mr.

had been performed, and the extent of compensation appropriate for such services.

        The executors claimed hourly fiduciary fees for “extraordinary services” under the fee
schedule while at the same time performing other professional services for the estate and the
company and receiving compensation for those services. Thus, fiduciary services and professional
services and advice were being provided by the same people, and questions of whether particular
services were being provided as a fiduciary or as a professional were being answered, in the first
instance, by those same people. Without court review, there would be no independent judgment
regarding those answers. Because fiduciaries owe a duty of loyalty to the estate and a duty of good
faith dealing to the beneficiaries, In Re Estate                      -13-
        Third, the trial court was asked to apply the fee schedule, which Appellants argued was the
intent of the testator, to a situation unforeseen by the testator: resignation of the co-executors before
administration of the estate was complete.17 The fact that the trial court encouraged that resignation,
as the court candidly acknowledged, does not alter the consequence.

        Where a trustee ceases to be trustee before he has completed the administration of the
        trust, he is not entitled to the full compensation to which he would be entitled


When President Donald Trump's longtime bodyguard Keith Schiller decided to leave his White House job last fall, many in the West Wing wondered how the president would manage without his personal security chief-turned-confidant, who had been working for Trump nearly 20 years.

As it turns out, Schiller didn't go very far. Within weeks of leaving his job as director of Oval Office operations, Schiller's private security firm, KS Global Group, began collecting $15,000 a month for "security services" from the Republican National Committee.

According to an RNC official, Schiller is being paid for security consulting on the site selection process for the 2020 Republican National Convention. Schiller's fee comes out of the RNC's convention fund, not its campaign fund, the official noted.

Campaign finance watchdog groups, however, were quick to cryfoul.

"These sorts of party accounts are notorious for being operated as slush funds — lightly regulated and ripe for abuse," said Stephen Spaulding, former special counsel at the Federal Election Commission and now chief of strategy at the nonpartisan advocacy group Common Cause.

Since October, the RNC has paid Schiller's firm a total of $75,000, according to its latest disclosure reports. The most recent payment was on Jan. 31. If the RNC continues paying Schiller at this rate until the 2020 Republican National Convention, his total fees will likely be north of $500,000.

"Trump's bodyguard's firm is getting a fat payout from the RNC and its deep-pocketed donors," said Spaulding, who noted that individual contributors "can give a whopping $101,700 per year to the RNC's convention account." The same rules


apply to the Democratic National Committee's convention fund.

Already, Schiller's $15,000 monthly "site selection consulting fee" is more than he made working in the White House, where his annual salary was $165,000. It's also more than Schiller made working for the Trump campaign, which reported paying KS Global Group $10,000 a month starting in July of 2016.

Reached for comment, the White House referred questions to the RNC.

"It pays to be in Donald Trump's circle of trust. He has a long history of taking good care of people who do his bidding and cutting off those who don't," said Dave Levinthal of the nonpartisan Center for Public Integrity, a watchdog group.

Schiller has remained largely out of sight since leaving the Trump administration — with one notable exception. In early November,Schiller testified before the House Intelligence Committee, where he denied allegations contained in the infamous Steele dossier, that Trump cavorted with prostitutes during a 2013 trip to Moscow.

"We don't do that type of stuff," Schiller reportedly said to one of Trump's Russian hosts, after the host offered to send women up to Trump's hotel room.

Attempts to reach Schiller were unsuccessful — his company is registered anonymously in Delaware and he no longer uses a White House email.

"Convention fund donations buy plenty of influence and access," Spaulding told CNBC. "Now it looks like they're helping to keep Schiller's firm afloat."


to exacerbate the current crisis with North Korea," a defense official said Monday on condition of anonymity. "We wanted to avoid that misperception or manipulation."

The administration's initial response had several goals.

It aimed to reassure South Korea and Japan about the strength of the U.S. commitment to their security, in part to ensure that South Korea did not do anything rash. There also was the need to deter North Korea and impress upon its young new supreme leader, Kim Jong Un, the seriousness of the situation. And it aimed to avoid turmoil on global markets while making it clear to China that its client state and neighbor had overreached.

So Obama ordered warships to the waters off the Korean peninsula, highlighted the beefed-up missile defense plans and, in an unprecedentedhad a BMI of 30 or higher. By 2016, that share had risen to 13 percent (11 for men and 15 for women), according to the World Health Organization.

There are currently about two billion people 18 and older -- 39 percent of all adults -- with a BMI above the "overweight" threshold of 25, and 700 million of them are clinically obese.

The prevalence of excess weight has risen even more dramatically among children, from four percent in 1975 to over 18 percent in 2016.

To tease out the relative impact of environment and genes on obesity, scientists led by Maria Brandkvist at the Norwegian University of Science and Technology combed through data on nearly 120,000 people in Norway whose height and weight were regularly measured between 1963 and 2008.

Adults


began tipping the scales at significantly higher weights in the 1980s and 1990s, they found.

Those born after 1970 were far more likely to have a substantially higher BMI as young adults than earlier generations.

- 'Obesogenic' environment -

Half of the people monitored were divided into five groups depending on their genetic susceptibility to obesity.

Comparing the two groups at the extremes, the researchers found, for example, that 35-year-old men with genetic variants known to favour weight gain were already heavier in the mid-1960s than men the same age without those fat-inducing genes.

Four decades later -- even as obesity rates increased across the board -- that gap nearly doubled.

Women showed the same trend, though the increase over time was somewhat smaller.

"Genetic predisposition would make a 35-year old man of average height3.9 kilos heavier than his genetically protected peers in the 1960s," explained Brandkvist.

"In Norway today, his vulnerable genes would make him more than 6.8 kg heavier."

In addition, he will have gained an extra 7.1 kilos "simply as a result of living in our 'obesogenic' environment," she added.

"This man's 13.9 kg excess weight is caused mostly by today's unhealthy lifestyle, but also by how his genes interplay with the environment."

While the correlation between the genetic profiles and degree of obesity was strong, the study -- by its nature -- cannot determine a direct cause-and-effect relationship, the authors caution.

Only clinical trials can highlight causal relationships, but for many areas of interest such experiments are not possible with humans, for both practical and ethical reasons.

Close Up speaks to a renowned architect as he claims a destroyed building in
the 9/11 attacks collapsed due to controlled demolitions.

Everyone can remember the collapse of the World Trade Centres in New York in
2001, but not many can accurately recall that not two, but three buildings went
done.

Tower 7, as it was called, collapsed in the afternoon of September 11th, 2001,
but failed to gain notoriety because it was never hit by a plane, yet still
it came down.

Which is exactly what troubles internationally respected architect Richard
Gage, who’s causing a stir in the USA for claiming that the buildings were instead
destroyed by controlled demolitions with explosives.

[11/28 Correction –approach taken in the international media — I could also have included the Japanese media — might be a sign that worldwide public and corporate media organizations are positioning themselves, and preparing their audiences, for a possible revelation of the truth of the claim that forces within the US government were complicit in the attacks — a revelation that would call into question the publicly given rationale for the military operations in Iraq, Afghanistan, and Pakistan.

The evidence now being explored in the international media may pave the way for the US media to take an in-depth look at the implications of what is now known about 9/11, and to re-examine the country’s foreign and domestic policies in the light of this knowledge.

A right-wing neocon organization called the Institute on Religion and Democracy (IRD)1 — which devotes itself to attacking religiously and socially progressive churches while supporting US imperial policies (going back to the Nicaraguan Contras funded illegally by the Reagan administration2 ) — has recently put out a press release attacking my next book, which is scheduled to be published this coming fall. Saying that I am “back with another outrageous book” in which I allege “new absurdities,” the IRDfor Accountability Now ( NYC CAN ) is working with Architects & Engineers for 9/11 Truth on a campaign to make the New York City Council launch an investigation into the anomalous destruction of World Trade Center Building 7.

The group emerged a little over a year ago to reorganize the petition drive for the ballot initiative that city officials eventually deemed legally invalid because it sought powers to initiate an investigation that State law doesn’t confer upon citizens. Officials claimed that such powers are properly the domain of existing city agencies, the Manhattan District Attorney and the federal government.

NYC CAN, a coalition of 9/11 survivors, family members, first responders, and concerned citizens, is focusing on New York City’s 51-member city council rather than creating a new referendum. Group

On the 11th of September 2001 the world entered a very dark chapter of its history! We were promised a 100 years of war in this “New American Century” fighting “the terrorists” wherever the American Empire deemed they were, and at the time of their choosing. We were told that this “New Pear Harbor” event carried out on 9/11 by the CIA born Al-Qaeda was a fair and reasonable reason to carry out a preemptive strike against their supporters the Taliban, by the invasion and occupation of Afghanistan.

The vast majority of the world’s population and its governments rallied behind the US determined to fight Islamic terrorism together world wide. Although somemore skeptical… Continue reading →

The International Center for 9/11 Studies has secured the release of hundreds of hours of video footage and tens of thousands of photographs used by the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) for its investigation of the collapse of the World Trade Center Twin Towers and Building 7. This material is being released to the Center under the Freedom of Information Act, in response to a lawsuit the Center filed against NIST.

The Center filed a FOIA Request with NIST on January 26, 2009, seeking production of “all of the photographs and videos collected, reviewed, cited or in any other way used by NIST during its investigation of the World Trade Center building collapses.” Following several unsuccessful attempts to get NIST to even acknowledge


receipt of the Request, the Center was forced to file a lawsuit on May 28, 2009. Shortly after the lawsuit was filed, the Request was assigned a reference number, and NIST began periodically releasing batches of responsive records. To date, the Center has received over 300 DVDs and several external hard disk drives that contain responsive records – more than 3 terabytes of data so far – and NIST has indicated that additional records will be released in the future.

We are currently looking at the best ways to distribute these materials to interested researchers and journalists around the world. It has taken NIST more than 8 months so far to produce a partial archive of photographs and… Continue reading →

On the eve of the 9th anniversary of 9/11,of Copenhagen and was lead author for a 2009 peer-reviewed study that revealed evidence of high tech explosives throughout the WTC dust.

In LA, physics teacher David Chandler discussed the swift destruction of the WTC towers, including Building 7, the little-known third tower. Having demonstrated its free fall, he confronted the US government agency NIST with his analyses and forced NIST to revise its November 2008 Final Report on WTC 7. NIST’s Draft Report had claimed free fall was impossible but NIST ultimately acknowledged WTC 7 was in absolute free fall for over two seconds. Concluded Chandler, “Free fall is physically impossible without explosives”.

were central to this achievement but it was his question that drew the answer in the end so it seems. David also talks about the highly political timing and nature of the NIST Building 7 report.

The Case for a New Building 7 Investigation

I. Foreknowledge of Building 7’s Collapse by Dr. Graeme MacQueen First of a three-part presentation, “The Case for a New Building 7 Investigation” Introduced by Dr. William Pepper, International Human Rights Attorney

Even though World Trade Center Building 7 is said to havebeen the first steel-framed building in history to undergo total collapse due to fire, there were many people who knew the building was going to collapse long before it did. In this presentation, the evidence for this peculiar foreknowledge will be summarized and its significance discussed. The argument will be made that it is impossible to explain this foreknowledge on the basis of the collapse hypothesis offered by the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST). The only hypothesis that explains this foreknowledge is the controlled demolition hypothesis.

Distribution of phosphate-activated glutaminase-like immunoreactivity in the retina of rodents.
The distribution of phosphate-activated glutaminase-like immunoreactivity was examined in the retinas of rodents. Intense glutaminase immunoreactivity was observed in many neuronal perikarya in the ganglion cell layer and inner nuclear layer including those of ganglion, bipolar and amacrine cells and possibly horizontal cells. Almost all bipolar cells containing protein kinase C were immunoreactive for glutaminase, suggesting that the majority of glutaminase immunoreactive bipolar cells were of the ON type. Intense glutaminase immunoreactivity was also found in the neuropil of the inner and outer plexiform layers and around the outer limiting membrane. Weak to moderate immunoreactivity was seen in the outer nuclear layer and photoreceptor inner and outer segments. Under electron microscopy, glutaminase immunoreactivity was seen in bipolar cell axonsof his delivery, or the deep, powerful connection he has made both with listeners and players.

'Let the numbers speak for themselves: this Sunday we will hear Micheál's final commentary for the 114th All-Ireland Senior Football Final, his 25th final in the year of his 80th birthday. His voice has defined GAA broadcasting for a generation, and will echo down the generations to come.'

Uachtarán Chumann Lúthchleas Gael, Criostóir Ó Cuana, said: 'Micheál Ó Muircheartaigh has made a huge contribution to the promotion of Gaelic Games through his unique commentary style and it is no exaggeration to say that he has been the definitive voice of the GAA in homes and clubs across the country for over six decades.

'His grá for An Ghaeilge often shines through in his commentary and


entertained the masses across the airwaves and have brought the action from Croke Park, Thurles, Páirc Uí Chaoimh, Clones, Castlebar and so many other venues into homes and centres where Irish people gather right around the world.

'He is synonymous with the ebb and flow of our matches and the unique relationship he forged with both players and managers, who held him in such high regard, provided him with a unique insight.'

Taoiseach Brian Cowen said: 'I want to take this opportunity to extend my good wishes to Micheál O'Muircheartaigh on his retirement.

'Micheál O'Muircheartaigh is one of the most popular and admired figures in Irish life. He has had a long and hugely distinguished broadcasting career and he has brought pleasure and excitement into the lives of millions of GAAsupporters.

'Today, I want to congratulate him on his many achievements and his great service to the Irish people.

'Micheál has contributed significantly to our understanding and enjoyment of great sporting occasions down the years. His enthusiasm, knowledge and passion for Gaelic Games are unrivalled.

'He is an unassuming legend and in many ways he has become a treasured national institution. He is also a great gentleman and despite his remarkable success, he has remained the most modest and gracious of men.

'I want to wish Micheál happiness in his retirement and I look forward to seeing him soon.'

Tributes from RTÉ colleagues:

Micheál has been the voice of GAA for over 60 years and the real sound of Sundays. His genuine of love of GAA, and sport in general, has always shone through.
