Lyft touts benefits of self-driving cars, but warns of 'second order' effects

Autonomous cars will prove critical to the future of cities, according to Raj Kapoor, Lyft's chief strategy officer and head of business for self-driving. But he added that riders may need to adjust their expectations and warned of unintended "second order" effects of the burgeoning driverless car industry.
Kapoor was speaking at the Move 2020 mobility conference in London yesterday, where he outlined takeaways from one of Lyft's commercial self-driving programs in the U.S. The San Francisco-based ride-hailing company partnered with Ireland's Aptiv nearly two years ago to launch a fleet of autonomous vehicles on Lyft's ride-sharing network. The self-driving option was first made available to the Las Vegas public in May 2018, and this week the duo announced that they've now passed 100,000 rides.
The arguments for self-driving cars are well documented, and Kapoor noted that the technology could improve road safety, encourage car-sharing, and reduce congestion and emissions. Moreover, the vehicles' interiors could be transformed into hubs for working, sleeping, and watching movies. It'll be more like air travel, with people less interested in what a car looks like from the outside than their options inside.
More broadly, new mobility options could support the anticipated growth of urban populations in years to come, something Lyft wants to play a pivotal role in shaping. "Two and a half billion people will be moving into cities," Kapoor said. "Mobility is critical, not just so that people can get from point A to point B, but it's critical to their economic lives as well. And simply adding [more] roads and vehicles won't work."
Kapoor pointed to how urban transport is evolving to embrace multi-modal options, subscriptions, and what basically amounts to an "access over ownership" model. "We've seen it happen with Spotify, and we're going to see it happen to transportation as well," he said.
Lyft has a vested interest in the "transport-as-a-service" narrative, of course, and the company — alongside Uber and others — stands to make a lot of money from people ditching their cars. But Kapoor was also frank about potential knock-on effects of a shift to driverless transport.
For example, with a human driver you can stipulate exactly where you want to be dropped off as you approach the destination, or you can wave at a driver during pickup if you're not quite where you're supposed to be. With an autonomous car there's less room for riffing, which is why Lyft offers a handful of preset options for drop-offs and pickups as part of its autonomous driving program.
"We take for granted that in a ride-share or a taxi, the driver will drop you off exactly where you want to go," Kapoor said. "If it's a robot, they have to follow the rules. And what that means is that it needs to be much more explicit about pickups and drop-offs."
For people who don't like to walk, or prefer a little flexibility with their rides, that may take some getting used to. But it's far from a deal-breaker.

Kapoor pointed to a handful of other unintended trade-offs if people ditch their own cars for driverless vehicles — including issues around personal identification and organ donation.
"There's also a lot of second order effects once this world is self-driving," Kapoor said. "In the U.S., we identify ourselves with a driver's license — if people aren't driving, how do you identify yourself? What about organ donation? What happens when people aren't getting into [car] accidents?"
It's true that roughly 20% of organ donations come from people who have died in car accidents. A reasonable counterargument would surely be that having fewer people die in accidents is a good thing, and their organs are still serving their original intended purpose. However, the broader point is that people and industries will have to adapt to the autonomous car movement. But if that is what is needed to transform cities back to people-centric places, Kapoor believes it will be worth it.
"We have made many cities, especially in America, mostly about parking," Kapoor said. "Fourteen percent of Los Angeles is now parking. It doesn't make sense because the consumer is utilizing the vehicle 4% of the time. So 96% of the time it's sitting idle."
This is a sentiment echoed by Lyft cofounders Logan Green and John Zimmer.
"Over the last 50 years, urban development has centered around the automobile, but imagine for a minute what our world could look like if we found a way to take most of these cars off the road," they wrote in a regulatory filing last year as Lyft prepared to go public. "It would be a world with less traffic and less pollution. A world where we need less parking — where streets can be narrowed and sidewalks widened. It's a world where pedestrians, bikers, and children can navigate a city just as quickly and safely as an automobile. That's a world built around people, not cars."

If you blog on Saturday nights, you're a diehard blogger. In that case, I am a blogging kingpin. But I do have cause to celebrate, for today I received my 1,000th viewer. If you want to get technical, it's more like I've had ten blog readers who have each viewed my blog 100 times, but no one wants to get technical. Last night, Melinda and I were talking shop about blogs and how your site meter can show you what countries people are finding your blog from and what words they type in the search engine to end up at your page. It was some pretty interesting stuff. If I have to admit it, I was so addicted that I spent most of this morning catching up on the last 1000 hits.
I was at the mall today and nearly lost my cool on one of those kiosk salesman. One time, I was sucked in and spent a half hour trying to come up with plausible excuses to get me out of there. I ended up having to promise I would return the next day when I had my money with me (right, because people go to the mall without money). I'm not really sure what it is they sell: something for your hands, nails and cuticles, I think. That is one extremity that gets absolutely no attention from me, and it's not going to change because some salesman badgered me into it. It wouldn't be a bad idea for the mall to make a tunnel to shield grouches like me from being pestered by the kioskmen, poll takers, and people collecting donations. You think that sounds like a lot of work, but I think it would actually be less work than me taking out a restraining order against each of these people one at a time.
We have these neighbors on our block who spend hours on the sidewalk with the necks craned, trying to see some bird. I don't understand the obsession with birds. They freak me out. Once a bird got trapped in our house and I stayed outside all day. We've also had a bird in the garage and a bat in the dorm room. Any winged creature can stay very far away from me and we both will be happy. You have to admit you are a bit scared of anything that can fly. You have to be. They have a power we will never obtain. Anyway, this bird likes to torment these neighbors by staying away from his home. We came home from the walk (and the accompanying stop-and-chat with the birdwatching neighbors), and I kind of saw what all the fuss was about. There he was perched on the flowers atop our patio table. He was small and colorful and beautiful, and not menacing at all. I snapped this photo. If the neighbors knew about this, they would pitch a tent in our backyard.
But this one instance hasn't voided my fear of birds. Rest at ease knowing I'm still petrified of all animals other than my own dog.
its a golden finch. tell them to buy some finch food. my parents are crazy bird lovers.
i always walk head down in the mall. avoid the kioskers, junior highers, and random grace people i would be forced into small talk with. head down, keep walking, ignore hearing your name, or foreign accents saying ma'am.
patrick… ahhahahahah. that is funny.

EXCLUSIVE: Kamila Shamsie stripped of German literary prize over support for BDS
British-Pakistani author tells MEE jury for Nelly Sachs Prize, awarded by city of Dortmund, has 'bowed to pressure', after decision to award her prize is reversed

A German city has reversed its decision to hand a literary prize to the novelist Kamila Shamsie because of her support for the pro-Palestinian Boycott, Divestment and Sanctions (BDS) movement.
The British-Pakistani author was announced as the winner of the Nelly Sachs Prize, named after a Jewish poet and Nobel laureate and organised and funded by the city of Dortmund, on 10 September.
But in a statement on Wednesday, organisers said the jury had reversed its decision to honour Shamsie, and that the 2019 award would not be handed to any author, with the next winner to be announced in 2021.
"With its vote for the British writer Kamila Shamsie as the winner of the Nelly Sachs Prize 2019, the jury honoured the author's outstanding literary work.
"At that time, despite prior research, the members of the jury were not aware that the author has been participating in the boycott measures against the Israeli government for its Palestinian policies since 2014," the statement said.
Kamila Shamsie condemned the decision in a statement sent to MEE by email, and said she was saddened that the jury had bowed to pressure.
"In the just-concluded Israeli elections, Benjamin Netanyahu announced plans to annex up to one third of the West Bank, in contravention of international law, and his political opponent Benny Gantz's objection to this was that Netanyahu had stolen his idea; this closely followed the killing of two Palestinian teenagers by Israeli forces - which was condemned as 'appalling' by the UN Special Coordinator for the Middle East Peace Process," she said.
"In this political context, the jury of the Nelly Sachs prize has chosen to withdraw the award from me on the basis of my support for a non-violent campaign to bring pressure on the Israeli government.
"It is a matter of great sadness to me that a jury should bow to pressure and withdraw a prize from a writer who is exercising her freedom of conscience and freedom of expression; and it is a matter of outrage that the BDS movement (modelled on the South African boycott) that campaigns against the government of Israel for its acts of discrimination and brutality against Palestinians should be held up as something shameful and unjust."
Shamsie told MEE that she asked Dortmund's city council to include her statement in their official press release, but they refused.
German city reviewing prize for UK author Kamila Shamsie over support for BDS
The Nelly Sachs Prize is a biennial award given to a writer whose work celebrates "tolerance, respect and reconciliation", with winners receiving 15,000 euros ($16,500) in prize money.
In May, the German parliament passed a motion condemning the BDS movement as antisemitic. It accused BDS of utilising "patterns and methods" used by the Nazi movement during the Holocaust.
The BDS movement, which was founded in 2005 by Palestinian activists, responded by accusing Germany of "complicity in Israel's crimes of military occupation, ethnic cleansing, siege and apartheid".
Aamer Hussein, a British-Pakistani storyteller and novelist and a fellow of the Royal Society of Literature, told MEE that he is totally in agreement with Shamsie's principled stand.
"She has always been a writer and public intellectual of exemplary integrity, honesty and moral courage, and I am quite frankly amazed that any prize should be withdrawn from a writer for her defence of human rights," Hussein told MEE.
"However, the loss is ultimately theirs, not hers," he added.
Last week, Dortmund city council announced that the jurors were rethinking their decision followed a post on the right-wing Ruhrbarone political blog about Shamsie's support for BDS.
Ruhrbarone has previously been accused by pro-BDS activists of calling for a "genocide against Palestinians" after tweeting an image in November which called for Gaza to be transformed into an open-cast mine with the hashtag #IsraelUnderFire. The tweet was subsequently deleted.

The Magna Carta (Latin) also called as "The Great Charter" celebrated its 800th anniversary on the 15th June 2015. Signed in Runnymede, near Windsor between King John and a group of rebel barons the agreement was an effort to stabilize the relations between the King and the group of barons. Markedly, the King did not sign the document for the love of liberty or equality but under the duress to buy peace with the barons.
The Charter which became a "harbinger" for the idea of liberty across the world was a religio-political document which the promised protection of Church rights, protection for the barons from illegal imprisonment, access to swift justice and limitations to feudal payment to the Crown. Though later on declared by the Pope as being void which led to a Civil War in the Medieval Britain, the Charter was signed year after year starting from 1215 until political tensions arose.
The Magna Carta is symbolic of the struggles between authority and law over the centuries and continues to have a powerful iconic status in the British society, being cited by politicians and lawyers in support of constitutional politics. "No man shall be arrested or imprisoned except by the judgement of their equals and by the law of land", the Charter emphasized that no man, not even the King is above the law. As Americans celebrate their 239thyear of independence on the 4th July it owes to the Magna Carta for the statute of "liberty and equality to all" constituted in the American Constitution.

Q: Unable to import Spring bean definition file using relative path I am new to Spring and inherited a Spring project that had all the XML configuration in ProjectName/WebContent/WEB-INF/applicationContext.xml. I'm trying to break the configuration into different components so it is easier to substitute things like DataSources and Hibernate configuation when testing.
Here is my file structure:
ProjectName
->WebContent
->WEB-INF
->applicationContext.xml
->spring-datasource.xml
->spring-hibernate-properties.xml
->spring-persistence.xml
->test
->us.mn.k12... (Java pkgs with JUnit tests)
->spring-hsqldb-datasource.xml
->spring-test-bean-locations.xml
->spring-test-hibernate-properties.xml
->src
->us.mn.k12... (Java pkgs with production code)
In WEB-INF/applicationContext.xml, I import the following:
<import resource="spring-datasource.xml"/> <!-- Production datasource -->
<import resource="spring-hibernate-properties.xml"/> <!-- Production hibernate properties -->
<import resource="spring-persistence.xml"/> <!-- DAO's, hibernate .hbm.xml mapping files -->
The application works with the above configuration.
My JUnit tests run using DbUnit and an HSQLDB in-memory database. So my JUnit test references spring-test-bean-locations.xml, which has the following:
<import resource="spring-hsqldb-datasource.xml"/> <!-- HSQLDB datasource for test -->
<import resource="../WebContent/WEB-INF/spring-persistence.xml"/> <!-- Production DAO's, hibernate .hbm.xml mapping files -->
<import resource="spring-test-hibernate-properties.xml"/> <!-- Hibernate properties for test -->
In this way, I can specify test datasource and hibernate properties, but reuse the production mapping file for the DAO's, etc. However, I get an error running my JUnit test. Here is the relevant part of the exception:
Caused by: org.springframework.beans.factory.parsing.BeanDefinitionParsingException: Configuration problem: Failed to import bean definitions from relative location [../WebContent/WEB-INF/spring-persistence.xml]
Offending resource: class path resource [spring-test-bean-locations.xml]; nested exception is org.springframework.beans.factory.BeanDefinitionStoreException: IOException parsing XML document from class path resource [../WebContent/WEB-INF/spring-persistence.xml]; nested exception is java.io.FileNotFoundException: class path resource [../WebContent/WEB-INF/spring-persistence.xml] cannot be opened because it does not exist
Now if I move spring-persistence.xml into /test so that I don't have to use the relative path, and reference it with <import resource="spring-persistence.xml"/>, then the tests run fine. So I think the contents of my XML files are OK, but I'm not properly importing with a relative path.
Is there anything obvious I'm doing wrong with my import of the relative path? And maybe the bigger question is does this look like a reasonable strategy for breaking applicationContext.xml into components to make it easier for testing?
Thanks!
A: The problem is: anything inside WEB-INF is not available to the ClassLoader in a regular project setup (and spring uses the ClassLoader by default to access resources). There are some hacks to work around this (like referencing the contexts using the file: prefix), but those are mostly ugly.
A better practice I'd suggest is to move the context files out of WEB-INF and into a dedicated resource directory (src/main/resources if you have a maven setup). That way they will be available to both the webapp ClassLoader and local unit test ClassLoaders.
Read the resources chapter to further understand the mechanisms involved.
A: Use
<import resource="file:**/WebContent/WEB-INF/spring-persistence.xml" />
It works in spring 3.2.1.RELEASE. Old versions I am not sure.

The service tunnel was originally designed as a crawling tunnel. Project Coordination excavated under the moat from the external plant room to the basement wall of the internal plant room and formed a void under the moat that was battered back to a stable slope. This part of the project was carried out as design and construct.

UPDATE 3-Hong Kong leader sees 'way out' of chaos through dialogue
Noah Sin, Felix Tam
* Hong Kong leader hopes peaceful protest marks a return to normal
* Lam says she sees a way out through dialogue, mutual respect
* Clear warnings, including paramilitary drills, from China
* Reports that British embassy staff member detained in China
* Protests take economic toll, with city on verge of recession (Adds Singapore universities cancelling exchanges with Hong Kong, British consulate official in Hong Kong missing, paragraphs 7-14; adds bullet points)
By Noah Sin and Felix Tam
HONG KONG, Aug 20 (Reuters) - Hong Kong leader Carrie Lam said on Tuesday she hoped a peaceful weekend anti-government protest was the start of an effort to restore calm and that talks with non-violent protesters would provide "a way out" for the Chinese-ruled city.
Hundreds of thousands of protesters rallied peacefully in torrential rain on Sunday in the eleventh week of what have been often violent demonstrations.
"I sincerely hope that this was the beginning of society returning to peace and staying away from violence," Lam said.
"We will immediately start the work to establish a platform for dialogue. This dialogue, I hope, will be based on a mutual understanding and respect and find a way out for today's Hong Kong," she said.
Anger erupted in June over a now-suspended bill that would allow criminal suspects in the former British colony to be extradited to mainland China for trial.
The unrest has been fuelled by broader worries about the erosion of freedoms guaranteed under the "one country, two systems" formula put in place after Hong Kong's return to China in 1997, including an independent judiciary and the right to protest.
The protests have prompted sharp reactions from Beijing, which has accused foreign countries, including the United States, of fomenting unrest in the territory. China has also sent clear warning that forceful intervention is possible, with paramilitary forces holding drills in neighbouring Shenzhen.
Britain's Foreign Office said it was extremely concerned about reports that a Hong Kong staff member had been detained in mainland China, but there was no immediate suggestion that there was any link to the protests.
Staff member Simon Cheng did not return to work on Aug. 9 after visiting the neighbouring mainland city of Shenzhen the previous day, Hong Kong news website HK01 reported.
Twitter Inc and Facebook Inc also said on Monday they had dismantled a state-backed social media campaign originating in mainland China that sought to undermine protests in Hong Kong.
Further protests are planned in the next few days, including by MTR subway workers on Wednesday, secondary school students on Thursday and accountants on Friday.
The protests continue to exact a toll on the city's economy and tourism, with the Asian financial hub on the verge of its first recession in a decade.
Singapore universities have cancelled exchange programmes to Hong Kong after Singapore warned its citizens to defer travel there, news website Today reported.
Singapore's foreign ministry said in an advisory last week large protests in Hong Kong had become unpredictable and could turn violent with little or no notice.
AGGRESSIVE TACTICS
Sunday's protest turnout, which organisers put at 1.7 million, showed that the movement still has widespread support despite chaotic scenes last week when protesters occupied the airport.
Some activists had apologised for the airport turmoil and protesters could be seen on Sunday night urging others to go home peacefully.
Aside from seeking Lam's resignation, demonstrators have five demands - complete withdrawal of the extradition bill, a halt to descriptions of the protests as "rioting", a waiver of charges against those arrested, an independent inquiry and resumption of political reform.
"The bill is dead," Lam told Tuesday's news briefing. "There is no plan to revive the bill, especially in light of the public concerns."
Police have been criticised for using increasingly aggressive tactics to break up demonstrations but there was a minimal police presence on Sunday and no arrests were made. More than 700 people have been arrested since June.
Lam said the police watchdog had set up a task force to investigate complaints.
Lam said she hoped Hong Kong had "unique advantages in attracting overseas companies", stressing the rule of law, but warned of the risk of pressure on the economy which shrank 0.4% in April-June from the previous quarter.
"The Hong Kong economy is facing the risk of downturn. We can see this from the data in the first half. Actually, I think the data in the first half has not fully reflected the seriousness of the problem," she said.
Secretary for Financial Services and the Treasury James Lau said on RTHK Radio the likelihood of recession was "quite considerable".
China has put strong pressure on big companies in Hong Kong over the protests, especially Cathay Pacific Airways. CEO Rupert Hogg quit in a shock move last week after Beijing targeted the airline over staff involvement in the protests.
Hogg's sudden departure was announced by Chinese state television and was seen as a signal to other multinationals, such as HSBC Holdings and Jardine Matheson Holdings , to support Beijing.
Cathay also fired two pilots for taking part in protests.
China's State Council called on Monday for greater development of the southern city of Shenzhen and integration of its culture and economy with neighbouring Hong Kong and Macau, a former Portuguese-run enclave that returned to China in 1999.

Who said that tiramisu had to have brandy or cognac? Is there a law that egg nog must have rum in it? Must mulled wine be served at Christmas? Does Champagne absolutely have to be popped when the clock strikes 12 on New Year's Eve? The holidays are full of wonderful, cherished traditions, that we have celebrated with for many years. Our first holidays sober can seem awkward and uncomfortable as we casually, mostly confidently, reject the offer of spiked eggnog, simply push our mulled wine aside, and fill our champagne glass with a mimosa- minus the champagne on New Year's Eve.
Recovery is about reinvention. We take who we were before our active addiction and use their influence to create who we are in recovery, after our active addiction. We don't abandon who we were during our drinking and using. Compassionately, we confront and customize the different parts of our character- maximizing the best and minimizing the most problematic. Each day we wake up clean and sober, we wake up to a revolution, changing our biology from head to toe. We decide who we want to be and how we want to live our life because we are no longer under the influence of drugs and alcohol. By coming to the realization we needed to get sober, then taking the necessary steps to begin our program of recovery, we realized that anything is possible. As the holidays come around and we start to feel nervous about how we will fit in, we realize something incredible: we don't have to.
Traditions have to be created at some point. We have created a new life for ourselves in recovery, which means we can create new traditions. We can make eggnog however we want. We don't even have to make egg nog, we can make Christmas virgin strawberry daiquiris if we want. We can go out to eat, we can take a vacation, we can buy cookies instead of bake them. On New Year's Eve, we can toast with sparkling apple cider or our favorite La Croix flavor of sparkling water. The possibilities are endless, because the possibilities of our life in sobriety are endless. Recovery has turned us into capable, compassionate, authentic women. Life is what we make it. Whatever traditions we keep, change, or create anew entirely, we do it with the fierce passion of our sobriety.

https://www.kirstymitchellphotography.com/
My eyes are finally open, and no matter how sad the origin of it all was... I will always cherish the fact that this small and very precious awakening has happened.
Described as a multi-faceted artist, award winning British fine art photographer, Kirsty Mitchell draws on her past careers in fashion design and costume making to produce images of beguiling, dream-like worlds all shot in the English landscape surrounding her home. Kirsty describes her approach as "Fantasy for real" spending months meticulously handcrafting her character's costumes and props to coincide with the bloom of wild flowers, and the seasonal extremes of her local environment.
After graduating from six years of study at The London College of Fashion and Ravensbourne College of Art in both costume and fashion design, Kirsty went on to internships at the studios of Avant Garde designers, Alexander McQueen and Hussein Chalayan. She continued her career as a fashion designer for over a decade.
In 2008 Kirsty returned to her early love of photography and began a new and deeply emotional connection with the medium during the treatment of her mother's terminal cancer. Nine months after her tragic loss, Kirsty immersed herself in what became an unexpected and life changing series entitled "Wonderland," which was intended as a book in her mother's memory.
This deeply personal project went on to become a multi award winning collection of 74 large scale photographs, taking five years to create and a total of seven to bring the book to fruition. It has been extensively featured throughout the world's press achieving a viral status online and has been published by prestigious names such as Harper's Bazaar, Vogue Italia, The Guardian, The Telegraph, BBC news, The British Journal of Photography and the Royal Photographic Society to name but a few.
In September 2015 the first edition of the Wonderland Book became the most successful photography book in the history of the crowd funding website, Kickstarter, and was completely sold out within a few months. Due to overwhelming public demand a second edition of the Wonderland book was released in December 2016.

Last year Mundfish announced their upcoming first-person game called Atomic Heart, which is set in Russia during the height of the Soviet Union. Not much has been revealed about the game up until now.
The new beautiful but freakish trailer for Atomic Heart not only features what looks like your obligatory mutant zombies and robots, among other weird and wonderful things, but also some truly intriguing environments. From what is shown, it seems we can expect some weapon crafting, such as a sledgehammer intertwined with barbwire and loads of visceral ranged and melee combat.
While combat will play an important role in the game, players will be free to approach each scenario as they deem fit. It seems likely that close range combat will lean more to the arcadey side as players will be able to dodge and counter incoming attacks with some brutal results. Judging from the trailer, players will also be doing their fair share of running away from hordes of enemies when the odds are stacked against them. Hey, when a horde of scary looking half-zombie half-machine creatures storm you, what else are you supposed to do?
While the trailer doesn't seem to reveal much about the game's story it has us intrigued. I also have to mention that the trailer also reveals some truly terrifying clown-themed mutants which will probably haunt my dreams for the rest of the week.
Atomic Heart is set for release later this year on XBox One, PlayStation 4 and PC.

Body scrub should be done once a week. Do not forget that the movements that apply peeling stimulate circulation and massage the skin. Given that they are rich in many valuable ingredients, citrus is the real hair and hair balm. Both cosmetic preparations and homemade citrus based preparations clean and refresh the face. Make your hair look shiny and silky. The body tightens and releases of excess fatty accumulations.
It is best to choose natural and fragrant citrus.
Sprinkle lemon and lime, add honey and sugar and at the end of a spoon of almond oil.
Mix well and circle on the body.
After 10 minutes, dry with warm water and put on your body the hydrating milk or lotion.

Chris Yessios is the President and CEO of auto.des.sys, Inc., and Professor Emeritus at The Ohio State University. He holds a PhD in Computer Aided Design from Carnegie-Mellon University and his formal education includes a BArch and a Diploma in Law, both from the Aristotelian University in Greece. He taught and researched at The Ohio State University where he was a Professor of Computer Aided Design and Director of the Graduate Program in Computer Aided Architectural Design.
In 1990, with David Kropp, an ex student of his and now Senior VP of Development, Chris Yessios founded auto·des·sys, Inc., developer of the popular 3D modeling software, form.Z. Last year Chris received the CAD Society Joe Greco Community Award.
I had the opportunity to meet Chris and other auto.des.sys folks at MacWorld in San Francisco. Considering his long experience in 3D modeling, I thought it would be interesting to know more about his company, form.Z, and to have his opinion on the evolution of 3D technologies. Here is the interview.
Chris, can you tell us a bit about yourself and your company?
I made the decision to concentrate on computer aided design in 1969 when I enrolled to a doctorate program at Carnegie-Mellon University in Pittsburgh. After graduation, I took an academic job at The Ohio State University, where slowly at first, but patiently we started developing many of the techniques that are taken for granted today. Prototypical 2D drafting and 3D modeling programs were already running on mainframes at the University by the early 80s, while a few commercial turnkey systems were also making their appearance, at a very high cost I should add. Even some early implementations of what has come to be known in the architecture field as BIM (Building Information Modeling) were already available to our students in those days. What was missing was the ability to disseminate their usage, as installations at different universities tended to be rather unique and the professions could not afford to match them.
All this, of course, changed with the availability of the PCs. This is when our company, AutoDesSys, Inc. (standing for Automated Design Systems) was founded by an ex student of mine and myself, with a few more ex students working with us. The year was 1989. Our goal was to bring down to the PC (the Mac to be more exact) and disseminate advanced 3D modeling techniques previously running on mainframes only. About a year later, form.Z was born.
I have a strong impression from interacting with your company that auto.des.sys is like a group of friends working for other friends. I never felt an impression of dealing with a corporation. How did you manage to create such a friendly environment?
This was never planned. It just happened. Thus, I am afraid, I have no recipe to offer.
The initial group of people shared an interest in producing tools that made their lives as designers easier and had worked together before. In the early days we also stayed in close touch with our professional users who were giving us constant feedback. As the company grew in more recent years, we have tried to maintain as much of this spirit as possible, even though I have to admit it is not as easy as it used to be.
Form.Z started as a software for architects, but quickly became popular among a wider set of users. How do you serve the needs of different types of users with just one single product?
It is true that our initial intention was to produce a program geared towards architectural design. We even initially used a different name that reflected this. However, we soon realized that the need for 3D modeling was much broader than architecture and all kinds of different design fields were ready to use more or less the same modeling tools. This is when we switched our emphasis and developed a general purpose modeler.
There are certain modeling operations that may be considered "generic", meaning that they are useful to everybody, rather than to specific design fields only. The Booleans are probably the best example of such operations. We were apparently successful in providing a fairly complete set of such generic operations that many different fields could be happy with. This being at a time (early 90s) when competing modelers were rather primitive, form.Z had no difficulty gaining in popularity fast. Even today, some of its operations (including the Booleans) remain uniquely capable and robust, which is why its popularity continues, in spite of the availability of more modelers on the market.
You are a Professor Emeritus at Ohio State University where you taught Computer Aided Design until 1995. How has your academic experience impacted the products created by auto.des.sys?
What I enjoyed most when I was at the University was the research side of my duties. The ability to explore new ideas and techniques. My area of concentration was such that even my class lectures were mostly based on what we had explored and developed in the lab recently, sometimes as recently as "yesterday." It is no different in our company. Not only have we drawn a lot from the knowledge we developed in academia, but we also work with a similar attitude, constantly trying to improve and find better ways of applying the computer to design tasks.
New users can now enjoy the freedom of several options when choosing a software system for 3D modeling, rendering, and animation. Which users should choose form.Z and why?
Yes, it is true, there are several 3D modelers available today, which were not there not too long ago. However, it is also true that none of these modelers is exactly the same with one another. On the contrary, a number of modelers are considered complementary to each other and are used in such a fashion. Thus, form.Z is frequently used for the modeling part of a project that is subsequently animated in another application. Needless to note that, with the recent inclusion of more animation tools in form.Z, there will be less of a need to animate with another program.
Who should choose form.Z? Anybody who is inclined to think of objects as being objects and who expects them to behave like objects when they are operated on. This is in contrast to the process based modeling implemented in the programs that are geared mostly towards animation. Also, anybody who wants to explore new forms and designs, or who may wish to start with concepts and carry them all the way to detailed designs, automatic fabrication, and beyond. form.Z seems to possess an uncanny ability of going beyond where other modelers are able to take a user. It can routinely turn a 3D experience into a creative process that produces results far beyond what is possible with conventional means.
Since its appearance, 3D modeling software has continually evolved to become easier to use and more powerful. Apart from this major trend, what will be the next big step?
Intelligent behavior. Over the years we have talked about knowledge based design leading to design automation and intelligent structures, both architectural and at smaller scales. Much of this will be based on the continuously increasing computer powers (speed and storage capacities), which are already at levels unthinkable just a couple of decades ago. We are finally coming to the point when we shall be able to capitalize on all this power.
I would like to thank Chris Yessios for taking the time to speak with me today. If you have any questions for Chris or for Novedge, please leave a comment below and we will be glad to answer.
Very impressive. I coded/wrote a marketing simulation (COMPETE: A DYNAMIC MARKTING SIMULATION) while teaching at Youngstown State and wish I had known about his work. My coding was very elemental (but as good as a Marketing guy could be expected to do) and wish I could have incorporated visual output into student results. Retired now (Professor Emeritus) but still enjoy reading about pioneers like Chris. Good interview!

Evidence for structural and electronic instabilities at intermediate temperatures in κ-(BEDT-TTF)2X for X=Cu[N(CN)2]Cl, Cu[N(CN)2]Br and Cu(NCS)2: Implications for the phase diagram of these quasi-two-dimensional organic superconductors
J. Müller, M. Lang, F. Steglich, J. A. Schlueter, A. M. Kini, T. Sasaki
We present high-resolution measurements of the coefficient of thermal expansion α(T)=∂ In l(T)/∂T of the quasi-two-dimensional (quasi-2D) salts κ-(BEDT-TTF)2X with X=Cu(NCS)2, Cu[N(CN)2]Br, and Cu[N(CN)2]Cl in the temperature range T≤150 K. Three distinct kinds of anomalies corresponding to different temperature ranges have been identified. These are (A) phase-transition anomalies into the superconducting (X = Cu(NCS)2, Cu[N(CN)2]Br) and antiferromagnetic (X=Cu[N(CN)2]Cl) ground state, (B) phase-transition-like anomalies at intermediate temperatures (30-50) K for the superconducting salts, and (C) kinetic, glasslike transitions at higher temperatures, i.e., (70-80) K for all compounds. By a thermodynamic analysis of the discontinuities at the second-order phase transitions that characterize the ground state of system (A), the uniaxial-pressure coefficients of the respective transition temperatures could be determined. We find that in contrast to what has been frequently assumed, the intraplane-pressure coefficients of Tc for this family of quasi-2D superconductors do not reveal a simple form of systematics. This demonstrates that attempts to model these systems by solely considering in-plane electronic parameters are not appropriate. At intermediate temperatures (B), distinct anomalies reminiscent of second-order phase transitions have been found at T*=38 K and 45 K for the superconducting X = Cu(NCS)2 and Cu[N(CN)2]Br salts, respectively. Most interestingly, we find that the signs of the uniaxial pressure coefficients of T*, ∂T*/∂pi (i=a,b,c), are strictly anticorrelated with those of Tc. Based on comparative studies including the nonsuperconducting X=Cu[N(CN)2]Cl salt as well as isotopically labeled compounds, we propose that T* marks the transition to a density-wave state forming on minor, quasi-1D parts of the Fermi surface. Our results are compatible with two competing order parameters that form on disjunct portions of the Fermi surface. At elevated temperatures (C), all compounds show α(T) anomalies that can be identified with a kinetic, glasslike transition where, below a characteristic temperature Tg, disorder in the orientational degrees of freedom of the terminal ethylene groups becomes frozen in. Our results provide a natural explanation for the unusual time- and cooling-rate dependences of the ground-state properties in the hydrogenated and deuterated Cu[N(CN)2]Br salts reported in the literature.

Ronnie Moore has given the strongest indication yet of what his starting line-up will be after the club revealed the squad numbers for the 2015-16 campaign.
As expected, Trevor Carson has been handed the Number One shirt at The Vic, although he has fierce competition for his starting place.
Pools added experienced Adam Bartlett to the squad last week, while the club confirmed highly-rated youngster Peter Denton has joined the club after a successful trial.
Moore has handed Carl Magnay the number two shirt, with left-back Jake Carroll taking the number three shirt.
In central defence, ex-Stevenage defender Harry Worley is number four, with last season's player of the year Scott Harrison handed number five.
Matthew Bates, who signed a new deal in the summer, has been moved to number six, with Brad Walker retaining the number eight shirt.
New strike pairing Rakish Bingham and Billy Paynter have been handed nine and 10, respectively, with winger Kudus Oyenuga 11.
Ebby Nelson-Addy moves to number 12 in his first full season at the club, with new keeper Bartlett given 13.
Rhys Oates is handed number 15 after joining in the summer, while young keeper Denton is number 31 in the squad list.

This, my first book of poetry, was divided into three sections with each section having a short preface poem. I hoped this poem would make clear the quite distinct, even if interwoven, levels of experience from which the poems in that particular section were written.
In my mid twenties I had been overwhelmingly made aware of two different types of love. To distinguish between the two I used then - and still use - a capital 'L' to represent Divine or Spiritual Love. I used a small letter 'l' for human love, 'romantic' love.
The first section contains poems about love and the loss of that love, between woman and man.
The second section tries to express my experience of Divine Love. Dorothy Sayers described the Vision of Beatrice as sometimes leading to the Beatific Vision. I have not found any better way to describe, in prose, my experience. This understanding, this Vision, this sense of a Presence, God, something greater than and beyond that contained in a material world has never left me. It is the cornerstone of my life and work.
In the third section my poetry explores on a less intensely personal level, a variety of subjects that interested me in the mid to late 1960s.
Who will love just for Love?
I face you and Love.
Ancient as the animals of Eden.
Creature with Puck and the deer.
And I was cleansed into love.
I am the small dark bring life.
I am the rounded hills that see.
I am the slim goblet that laughs.
And you, beloved, give me this.
In a world I knew.
With the universe my heart.
And the ethereal night rests in out soul.
A pebble, leaf or weed.
Than that all is, than that all lives.
Hills of the Hebrides vanish.
I am focused solely on your sight.
Sing if she sees us.
If only we love now.
And I catch all creatures in my mouth.
The wild, sharp ocean birth of your return.
And the snow is burning.
To go out to my winter.
Love him well while I go with the swallow.
And her power beats in me.
I hold you in my hand.
The night is big, awake.
I fight to love more and be weak.
And salt milk throbs in me.
Beating leaves out to bud.
I dance with the earth.
My male all that lives.
And forests thick with birds.
Lies the union, spirit or flesh, or divinely both.
And there is growing in to birth.
Each is the first Adam, Eve.
Today is the first apple.
To make the garden walled.
Eden is a desert garden.
And naked shout to naked Love.
Gives birth to the garden of flame.
And leans him into the body of the universe.
That holds in its wide womb the life of all creatures, Love.
Moving beyond beloved to Love.
Through love, Love is reborn into flesh.
Thighs sway as choirs shouting glory to soul.
Hot burning bone is soul.
Rich hallowed life lies through lips.
Human soul, god soul are one.
Kneels as body to other spirit.
Give up self to All Self to be self.
Body burns with the Infinite, being Infinite.
Rejoice in one Beauty, one Holiness.
Holding a child and the moon.
This apple, this cherry, this peach.
You are planting the rice and the palm.
Gather me home with the harvest, my love consummated.
You are naked with the seas.
Makes you rise son above the lover.
Your born soul is the virile act.
You live and I am glad.
Push with your hands that firmament away.
Let me hold you face, let me rest, let me sleep.
Which grin at their backs.
And seems to like being a leaf.
Watch with wonder rush hour.
With its wide swimming eyes.
Bright on the moss fence.
To flirt and feel girl's hips, girls' lips.
You love to know you are a man.
Unconscious love of being loved, alive.
And the breakers shouting across the beach up to his swelling throat.
Old man whose mind can now seize woman's mind.
Old man who loves at last love alone.
Pinned into flesh and love, alone.
Trapped in my love by life.
Forced from many to one.
And keep their private souls.
The bare, brown ocean earth.
And neatly storing it away.
With the shredding of the full wheat.
Bending into mists of winter.
Each man pulls hard in his harvest.
And shivering at the one sun's age.
All Europe is cracked in its harvest.
Meeting children of Europe in play.
As sane men remember dead Europe.
And daily these blood mountains grow.
Line after line of uniform colour.
As massed, moving ghost minds.
Or rise high above the left pickings.
Is trembling as it gathers its wheat.
All Europe is gathering its harvest.
My gradual growing is our mind's exercise.
How many women are planning a birth?
How many men are testing nerve gases?
When my flesh is dead?

FANS' PERSPECTIVES

Perspectives from some of the Villa faithful.
Pay per view exposes a fallacy at the heart of modern football.
Oct 18, 2020 Oct 18, 2020 callumrichardsonjournalistLeave a comment
I'm sure that anyone reading this shares my disgust at the introduction of pay per view football this weekend, for the truly sickening price of £14.95 for a single match. Yet, in reality, this is just the latest chapter of ordinary football fans being extorted away from our own game. To add insult to injury, this outrageous price has been introduced during a pandemic, as at least 4.5% of the nation are unemployed as thousands of jobs continue to be axed by companies trying to save cash.
Villa reaping rewards of busy summer: Aston Villa summer 2020/21 transfer window review
Oct 10, 2020 Oct 10, 2020 mickylyonsLeave a comment
Finally the transfer window has closed after a long summer of anticipation. Ending the season in such dramatic circumstances left major questions to be asked of our squad and with wealthy owners there was no real reason not to answer said questions. Despite a slow start it seems we've done a fair amount of business this window so I have taken it upon myself to weigh up our transfers and evaluate the quality of the work.
Managing the Midfield: McGinn and Luiz's potential midfield partner
Aug 3, 2020 Aug 4, 2020 Dan MorganLeave a comment
Since Villa confirmed their place in the Premier League for the 2020/21 season, the transfer rumour mill has been in full flow – as expected. With fans pining for the likes of Milot Rashica and Saïd Benrahma – who have been linked to Villa on the daily – plus a reported £100m transfer budget, the question becomes whether Villa are better off splashing the cash on only one winger and bringing in another quality central midfielder?

Aston Villa 2019/20 Season Review: The Common Theme of Naivety
Aug 3, 2020 wrighti1Leave a comment
As the sun set on that glorious day at Wembley and the weeks passed by, I admit that like many fellow Villa fans I allowed myself to dream of what we might be able to achieve as signing after signing was coming through the front door at Bodymoor Heath, and the optimism swirled around Villa Park.
Renouned journalist Henry Winter certainly seemed to agree.
Although we achieved our end goal of survival, there were a lot of flaws within our season that must be rectified for next year.
Jack Grealish, a priceless hero.
Jul 29, 2020 Jul 29, 2020 Heart of The HolteLeave a comment
I consider myself lucky to be writing this article, incredibly fortunate that Jack Grealish exists, that he stayed at Villa this long and that I have watched virtually every single second of his impassioned and glorious career thus far. I know I am not alone in proclaiming him my favorite ever Villa player, and he is certainly the most gifted that I have seen don the famous claret and blue to represent the pride of Birmingham. A season ticket holder from the age of four, and Villa roots that stretch way back to his great-great Grandfather (Billy Garraty) winning the FA Cup for Villa in 1905. How many clubs are captained by a player with such a special connection to the fan-base?

USPA NEWS - Universities across the UK now have a further opportunity for their cyber-security related degrees to gain certification as part of the National Cyber Security Strategy.
Universities across the UK now have a further opportunity for their cyber-security related degrees to gain certification as part of the National Cyber Security Strategy.
After a rigorous process, the National Cyber Security Centre (NCSC) – a part of GCHQ – has already certified 23 Master's degrees, three Integrated Master's and three Bachelor's degrees from 19 universities over the last four years.
With applications now open the NCSC is looking for fresh candidates to increase these figures, with degree apprenticeships now also eligible.
NCSC-certified degrees help universities to attract high quality students from around the world, employers to recruit skilled staff and prospective students to make better informed choices when looking for a highly valued qualification.
"I'm really pleased that we've now launched a programme for certifying degree apprenticeships. This will be a valuable addition to our certified undergraduate and postgraduate degree programmes.
"Degree Apprenticeships offer a flexible option for both students and employers, as we have seen from our own Degree Apprenticeship programme.
The degree certification programme is part of a range of programmes which the NCSC and its government partners have initiated across UK academia designed to address the knowledge, skills and capability requirements for cyber security research and education.
"The fast-paced world of technology is constantly evolving and it is vital that young people have the option to study high quality courses in cutting edge industries, such as cyber security.
"We want to maximise choice and flexibility for people wanting to study in higher education, whether that's as part of a traditional course or a degree apprenticeship.
"Not only will these certified degrees provide a benchmark for future cyber security professionals, but also help to ensure they are ready for the world of work and prepare them for an exciting career."
"The success of this course has contributed to the University's decision to introduce a new MEng degree in Computer Science with Cyber Security" – University of York.

Statute Number: 79-5a14
Chapter Title: TAXATION
Article Title: PUBLIC UTILITIES
Tax Type: Property Tax
Brief Description: Penalty for late filing of or failure to file statement
listing property by public utility; abatement of penalty.
79-5a14. Penalty for late filing of or failure to file statement listing property by public utility; abatement of penalty. (a) Any public utility required to make a return in writing to the director of property valuation on forms prescribed by the director showing all the information that the director requires and deems necessary for the appraisal and apportionment of values of such public utility's property that fails to make such return on or before the date prescribed by K.S.A. 79-5a02, and amendments thereto, shall be subject to a penalty as follows:
The director, after having ascertained the assessed value of the property of such public utility, shall add 5%, or $100,000 of the assessed value, whichever is less, thereto as a penalty for late filing if the failure is not for more than one month, with an additional 5%, or $100,000 of the assessed value, whichever is less, for each additional month or fraction thereof during which such failure continues, not exceeding 25%, or $500,000 of the assessed value, whichever is less, in the aggregate.
For good cause shown the director may grant one or more extensions in time, not to exceed 30 days in aggregate, in which to make and file such return. Such request for extension of time must be in writing and shall state just and adequate reasons on which the request may be granted. The request must be received by the director on or prior to the due date of the return. In the event the extension is granted, no penalty shall accrue until the due date of such return. In the event the extension is denied, the public utility shall be notified in writing of such denial and shall file the return within ten days following receipt of such notice of denial. Penalties for late filing of such return shall accrue at the end of such ten-day period.
(b) If, within one year following the date prescribed by K.S.A. 79-5a02, and amendments thereto, any public utility that fails to make a return in writing to the director of property valuation on forms prescribed by the director showing all the information that the director requires and deems necessary for the appraisal and apportionment of values of such public utility's property or fails to make and file a full and complete return for such purposes, the director shall proceed to ascertain the assessed value of the property of such public utility, and for this purpose the director may examine under oath any person or persons whom the director deems to have knowledge of such assessed value of such property. The director, after having ascertained the assessed value of such property, shall add 50%, or $1,000,000 of the assessed value, whichever is less, thereto as a penalty for failure to file such statement or for failure to file a full and complete statement.
(c) The director of property valuation shall have the authority to abate or reduce any penalty imposed under the provisions of this section for just cause shown. Any public utility may appeal any such decision to the court of tax appeals as provided by K.S.A. 74-2438, and amendments thereto. Notice of such appeal shall be filed with the secretary of the court within 30 days after the director of property valuation has notified the public utility in writing of the director's decision, or within 30 days after the mailing of the notification of the results of the informal conference prescribed by K.S.A. 79-5a05, and amendments thereto, when an informal conference has been requested. The court of tax appeals shall have the authority to abate or reduce any penalty imposed under the provisions of this section and order the refund of the abated penalty, whenever excusable neglect on the part of the public utility required to make and file the statement listing property for assessment and taxation purposes is shown, or whenever the property for which a statement of assessment was not filed as required by law is repossessed, judicially or otherwise, by a secured creditor and such secured creditor pays the taxes and interest due.
(d) The provisions of this section shall be effective on and after July 1, 2008.
History: L. 2008, ch. 182, § 1; June 5.

First, the Pope presides over the largest religious body with a single human leader: Catholicism. He is influential.
Second, the encyclical is the second most important document the Pope can issue and is the first of its kind to address environmental issues. The letter is a significant event.
Along with our Catholic partners and Twitter companions @CatholicEcology, @CatholicClimate, and @CathClimateMvmt we are counting down the days with speculation that the encyclical will be issued on June 18.
There has already been much press, outreach, and education in preparation for the encyclical's release and this spring, Yale University's Religion and Ecology program hosted a panel titled: "Pope Francis and the Environment: Why His New Climate Encyclical Matters." You can watch the presentation here where Prof. John Grimm calls the encyclical a "game changer" and points toward its effect on behavior change, and Prof. Mary Evelyn Tucker suggests that this encyclical will impact scientists and policy makers as well as people of faith.
Ecology is making amends. Theology is making amends. Into this gulf, the Pope's encyclical will be delivered. And this is timely work given the framing of international policy with the upcoming UN Climate Change Conference. The Pontifical Pundit should indeed now step into the bully pulpit to sound an alarm on the pressing sustainability issues we face and perhaps by doing so we can more fully come to terms with the interrelation of social, economic, ecological issues. Perhaps systemic oppressions and other structural dysfunctions will come to the fore over the minutia we often concern ourselves with. Perhaps we can begin to feel vulnerable enough to admit the limits of our knowledge and knowledge itself for addressing a problem which is as fully human as we are or fail to be.
Interfaith Power and Light recapped the call to action as informed faith and larger ethical commitments: "The Declaration commits the bishops to specific first actions including: energy conservation measures in church buildings; more renewable energy; nurturing biodiversity on church land; supporting sustainability in water, food, agriculture and land use reviewing churches' investment practices including a call for divestment; and closer ecumenical and interfaith co-operation" (read more here).
NCIPL's encyclical events are being planned for September to honor Pope Francis' first visit to the U.S. The Pope's travel plans are to first visit Washington D.C. and, at the invitation of John Boehner, give an address to Congress, then travel to New York to address the U.N. leadership, completing the trip with a visit to Philadelphia where he will lead a public mass.
During this time, NCIPL plans to co-host "white smoke" events across North Carolina in each of the six regions of the state. These events will be public forums held at Catholic churches with an agenda to include the sharing of an encyclical overview, key messages, and the call to act. We will be partnering with the Franciscan Action Network and Catholic Climate Covenant in the planning and also working with the EPA and the U.S. Green Building Council to co-host a webinar as part of this campaign to create an online teaching program that will help walk communities of faith through the EnergySTAR Portfolio Manager workbook for congregations platform as a response to Pope Francis' call to put our faith into action and address the issues and impacts of climate change as a moral imperative.
We hope you will join us in this great work!

NASA lands at library July 16
"This is a great one for anybody who's got interest in space exploration."
Anne Arundel County Public Library's communication manager, Christine Feldmann made
Christine Feldmann
that statement when reflecting on the new Perseverance rover event coming up at the virtual library Thursday, July 16 at 7 pm through Zoom. She is enthusiastic to be working with NASA again.
"We're thrilled to be partnering with NASA on this event and to have the experts, the people who are doing the work--boots on the ground--being able to not only not only talk to our customers, but to answer questions," she said. "We're really trying to step up our virtual programs (as we) are not able to offer in branch programs right now
Feldmann said past NASA events have often been standing-room-only. There are slots left to attend the presentation through AACPL registration. Sign up here.
The next Mars rover mission, Perseverance, may be a round trip and is planned to launch between the end of this month and mid-August. The new Perseverance rover will seek signs of ancient life and collect rock and soil samples for possible return to Earth.
A deputy program manager of the Perseverance mission, Dr. Adrian Brown--is expected to
talk about the Jezero crater, the MARS helicopter, the Supercam laser system, as well as how the samples on Mars will be collected and returned here to Earth by 2031. The presentation is expected to take about an hour. Dr. Brown will tell residents all about the ground-breaking (literally and figuratively) mission via the Zoom video-conferencing platform.
"It's really a great opportunity for people to learn more about the mission to Mars in a way that stays comfortable and it's appropriate for teens and adults," Feldmann said. "And we've got about 250 seats remaining in our program."
She said the presentation may also be a good opportunity for younger children to attend, although parents may want to come along with their kids to explore any questions they may have.
The National Aeronautic and Space Administration has previously sponsored astronauts to come to the county library to speak and the federal agency also has a relationship supporting the local library system's fall STEM festival.
"So this is a natural extension of our partnership and our good relationship with NASA," Feldmann said.
Anne Arundel County Public Library buildings reopened to the public with some limitations. Buildings are now open Monday through Thursday 10 am to 7 pm and Friday and Saturday 10 am to 5 pm. Curbside service--which has had 14,000 pickups since starting--remains available Monday through Thursday 3 pm to 6 pm and Friday and Saturday 10 am until noon.
Current limitations at the library buildings require some new protocols. Sometimes folks arriving may find they need to wait for previous patrons to exit a building before they may enter due to social distancing requirements, Feldmann said.
But she indicated both library patrons and staff have been happy to get back to their local library buildings again. In-person library events have been suspended for now because conference rooms are needed to store returned materials that undergo a 72-hour quarantine.
But that hasn't stopped residents' enthusiasm for being back among the books.
"People are excited the to be back at the branches and to see the staff," Feldmann said,"A big thing that the staff reported to me was that they're getting lots of 'We're really happy to see you.' and 'Thank you for all you've done and for opening,' (comments from patrons). You know, there are always a few people who are not wanting to wear masks. But overwhelmingly people aren't compliant and friendly and understanding and just happy to be back."

On top of all that, they are an awesome, animal-free way to substitute ground beef. If you've never had lentils before, they are bland alone, but can soak up any flavor to perfection, which makes them so easy to cook with. For this recipe, I sauteed some onion and minced garlic, then added in the lentils along with some vegetable broth. I feel like lentils are always better when cooked in a broth over water. Then I add in a little thyme and let that simmer over a medium-low heat for 25 minutes covered, then 10 minutes uncovered.
The thyme is what really makes this shepherds pie. Without it, it's not even close to as savory and delicious. You will 100% understand when you try this yourself, I guarantee it!
My mom gifted me some new vegetable, fruit, and herb plants for Mother's Day, and included in that was a nice batch of fresh thyme. I took this as an opportunity to use it, as we all know, fresh herbs just taste so much more… well… fresh! You can, however, use half the amount (or 1 tsp) of dry thyme if that's what you have on hand. It will still be delicious!
While the lentils are cooking, chop the potatoes and boil them until they are soft and a fork easily slides through them. This usually takes about 12 minutes, but will depend on how small/large you cut your potatoes. Naturally, smaller pieces will take less time. Then, you drain the potatoes and pour into a large bowl. Add the butter and non-dairy milk to the potatoes, mash with a potato masher or fork until desired consistency and the milk and butter are mixed in well. Salt and pepper, as desired.
Preheat the oven to 400°F. In a 9 x 13 baking pan, pour the lentils into the bottom of the pan and use a spatula to make an even layer, covering the bottom. If the lentils still have liquid in them, use a slotted spoon or drain it beforehand. Then, just drain the cans of vegetables and layer them evenly on top of the lentils. Finally, use the mashed potatoes to cover the top layer. Bake for 20 minutes, or until the tops of the mashed potatoes are slightly browned. Remove from the oven, allow to cool for about 10 minutes, and chow down!
In a medium saucepan, heat oil over medium-high heat and sautee the onion for 5 minutes.
Add in the minced garlic and sautee another 2 minutes.
Add the broth, lentils, and thyme, and bring to a boil.
Stir and turn heat down to medium-low, cover, and allow to simmer for 25 minutes.
While the lentils are cooking, cut and boil the potatoes in a large pot for 12-15 minutes, or until soft. Drain them, transfer to a large mixing bowl, add butter, milk, salt and pepper; mash until desired mashed potato consistency. Set aside.
Uncover the lentils, stir again, and allow to simmer uncovered for 10-15 minutes, or until all/most of the liquid has been absorbed and the lentils are soft.
Transfer the lentils to a 9 x 13 baking pan and cover the bottom with an even layer.
Open the cans of vegetables and drain the liquid from them. Layer them on top of the lentils.
Bake for 20 minutes. Allow to cool slightly. Plate and ENJOY!

Our gorgeous friend Krista Haapalainen stays busy with her soon-to-be-launched company, Organic Nava. For the New York Fashion Week, we had the priviledge of having a girl community at her place near Central Park, getting a glimpse of her life as a newyorker!
Krista Haapalainen, 27, Miss Finland 2014 first runner up and Miss World Finland 2014. Born and raised in Finland but moved to New York 2,5 years ago. Co-founder and National Marketing Team Leader of a functional beverage line called Organic Nava.
How did you end up living in NY and how do you like it?
There are mainly two kinds of Finns in New York, the ones that come here for work and the ones that come here for love. I belong to the second group. After a year lasting long-distance relationship I decided to sell (almost) everything that I own, pack my bags and move to the dazzling Big Apple. I never really imagined myself living abroad or in New York, but there I was waving goodbyes with my mom, crying, at the airport. It's crazy how much power love has.
The first few months were like a rollercoaster with a lot of ups and downs. I just left my family and friends and was homesick, next moment I was on cloud nine walking on the streets of the most amazing city in the whole world. I was introduced to the harshness of New York and sometimes it got me. Often I found myself crying in the shower thinking about what am I doing here, but then there was that love handing me a towel and reminding me why this all happened.
On the first week here my dad gave me an advice to go outside and talk with at least three different people. I was so shy that I only talked to the grocery store cashier. But little by little I got used to the city, how the subway works and the differences in culture and life started to get easier. Now couple years later I consider my self a 'newyorker' who knows when the yellow cab is fooling you and what is the meaning of small-talk.
What have you learned from life in NYC?
New York city is tough, but at the same time amazing. It shows me the reality really fast and can slap my face but can also offer something surreal that I never even knew existed. If America is the land of opportunity, New York is the place to make the dreams happen and probably that's why it's called "The City of Dreams". This city has thought me to grow a thicker skin and not to let anything wear you down. If I have something that I want to achieve, it's possible BUT it requires a-lot-of-work.
I have also learned that although everything revolves around money here my Finnish way of thinking is much healthier. It's all about balance and putting the most important things, like family and friends first before work.
Tell us more about your company and its products.
I got together with the other co-founder of Organic Nava couple years ago and we noticed there's a void in the fictional beverage category. We realized that there's an opportunity to create something great and started creating the juice line in our very own kitchen. Now two years and hundreds of research and development hours later we are finally launching the line in January.
The line is vegetable juice with functional hydration and has many health benefits. We consider ourselves as "The revolution against sugar" and believe that rest of the world will join us to this revolution.
We are a small start up company which has thought me to wear a lot of hats at the same time. It's amazing how little a school can teach in four years and how much can a job teach in two. Within the past two and a half years I've worked on logistics, R&D, design, production, sales, marketing and lately in a new opportunity – hiring new employees. It has been a great learning experience of business and mostly, about myself.
You are also known for charity work, has that affected on developing products that really do good for health?
I feel like with this juice line we can do good in two different levels; we can educate people making better choices and eating healthier and we can also help the people in need by donating certain percentage of the sales. I got inspiration for this from Miss World competition and Beauty with Purpose projects that the whole competition was revolved around. Seeing the less fortunate every day on the streets and subways keeps me humble and makes me realize over and over again how important charity work is. My dream is to have a foundation next to this company that can help more and more people every year.
Is there a difference between the business life in Finland and NYC?
Business life in Finland and New York is completely different. There's no such a thing of "coming back to work after a vacation pay" not to even mention weeks of vacation or unlimited sick days. None of that. Work culture in New York is so competitive that companies don't have to give a lot of benefits since there's the next person already knocking on the door asking for your place, probably with cheaper pay. Professionals all over the world gather here to make their dreams come true and that makes the level of competition so high. Luckily I only work 9 to 11 hours a day but just couple days ago I chatted with my friend who hasn't seen her husband in two weeks because of his 20 hour work days. Some people even move to their office for a few days so they can sleep and change clothes there and not waste time going home. But it's all worth it if you are doing something that you enjoy and you know that in the end it's taking you where you want to be.
You are a true boss lady – how do you have time to run business, do a lot of sports and spend time with your friends and family, in two different continents?
After working crazy 16 hour days with hight tempo for a while I realized that life should not be devoted only for work – or at least my life. I realized that I need to work smarter, not harder and this is something that I need to focus on every day. Balancing life between work, family and my own wellbeing can be tough but I have learned certain techniques to help me, like writing down my goals weekly, making the subway ride a learning experience by listening podcasts, having Wednesday nights for date night and the best out of all – finding the healthy restaurants that deliver food home! Thank god for all the technology that allows me to maintain my relationships with my friends in Finland. How did they do it in the old days?
Where do you get inspiration in your everyday life and in business life?
New York is such an inspiring city. So many things are happening around you and you never know what there will be around the corner. People are the most inspiring and I love to hear their stories about life lived. The boldness of the city sometimes raises the most beautiful ideas and keeping open mind allows me to experience all of this.
Growing up nature around me in Finland I feel like the best inspiration for my work life comes from Central Park and especially when I'm running around the calm lake in the morning. It's such a beautiful place to get the thoughts together and set up goals for the rest of the day.
I'll spend New Years in Helsinki and hoping to see lots of friends there! Very excited to spend a week there especially after the nostalgic Finland100 celebration.
Would you come to LA with us in Jan or Feb?
This super woman is living a life that is a dream for many of us. We know that learning a new language, a new culture AND being thousands of miles away from your family and friends can be extremely hard – and still she manages to build herself a meaningful career, every day. Her endless positivity and determination of running her organic juice business is so contagious that we got a lot of motivation for our own business as well!

By Allison Kugel
In this eclectic interview, Damon Dash and fiancée Raquel "Rocky" Horn, take me behind the scenes and into their day-to-day life as parents to their one-year-old son, Dusko, their plant-based lifestyle, and even their son's guitar lessons (yes, he takes guitar lessons.).
They share candid and unfiltered information about their intimate life, their long term engagement, how they're raising their son, and why Damon chose to participate in the newly released documentary film, They're Trying to Kill Us, which examines chronic illness and early deaths among underserved communities of color.
In the second half of the interview, Dame gets real about living with PTSD, his love of weed, and his thoughts on the recent Astroworld Music Festival tragedy that claimed ten lives and injured hundreds of other concertgoers.

Allison Kugel: Your son, Dusko, is the cutest!
Dame Dash: Thank you. I appreciate that. He has brought so much joy to us, and my whole family.
Allison Kugel: Both of you have been on a plant-based journey for a long time. Who led the way on that?
Dame Dash: We do everything together. There is nothing we do not do together.
Allison Kugel: But who was it that said, "Let's eat plant-based?"
Dame Dash: Rocky wanted to go plant-based for a while, but I ate very simple things at the time; cheeseburgers, chicken fingers, not very healthy. I was always disgusted by myself for that, so there would be times when she first met me, that I was a vegetarian.
Raquel "Rocky" Horn: He never ate anything that looked like an animal, so there was never a meat on a bone situation. Never anything that looked or reminded him of an animal, so no seafood, ever.
Allison Kugel: It had to be in a nugget. It couldn't look like a chicken, right (laughs)?
Dame Dash: It was me not exactly addressing the truth, so after a while, she was starting to transition off of meat and she was cooking a certain way to transition me. She was sneaking it in because she is sneaky. We watched the documentary, What the Health, and that day after I saw the puss and the doo doo, and the cancer, and the diabetes; logically, I could not ever go back to even taking a bite [of meat] once in a while. I remember a week or two after I tried to take a bite at the farmer's market…
Raquel "Rocky" Horn: No, we went to the Jamaican place and there was oxtail, and he just said, "I'm going to have to order a sample to see it." He then went and threw up in the bathroom.
Dame Dash: I just couldn't do it.

Raquel "Rocky" Horn: We started this network called the Dash Diabetes Network. Damon is a Type 1 diabetic, and in my research of learning about diabetes, I just started seeing that it was all going back to dairy and meat products. The information was everywhere, and all of a sudden What the Health came out and just confirmed it.
Dame Dash: We had just gotten a bunch of bacon, and I used to love bacon.
Raquel "Rocky" Horn: We got rid of everything and changed our lives in 24 hours. From then on, we have had so many of our friends watch that film, and for us, it was just logical."
Dame Dash: A plate of food and just a little bit of animal feces is on it, then I'm not going to touch that food. Or, like, if a rat runs over it, in the food industry there is a certain amount of tolerance for rat hair and tolerance for fecal matter in the food. I just can't do it
Allison Kugel: Damon, you are a Type 1 diabetic as is my father, and that is genetic. But many people are living with Type 2 Diabetes or are what is called "pre-diabetic" due to poor lifestyle choices. What I found interesting in What the Health was when Doctor Neil Barnard said that Type 2 Diabetes is actually created when there is so much fat being stored in our cells that the sugar (glucose) which is our body's primary source of fuel, can't find its way into the cells, so the sugar builds up in the blood and that is Type 2 Diabetes.
Listen to the full podcast interview
Dame Dash: And what happens is your pancreas produces a certain amount of insulin to bring that sugar down, so if you have too much of it, then your pancreas is not producing enough insulin to cover all those simple carbs in your body and break that down. That is from eating meat and dairy.
Allison Kugel: When I spoke with you a few years back about your film, Honor Up, you spoke about losing your mother when you were fifteen. Did she pass away due to chronic health issues?
Dame Dash: Yes, from asthma.
Allison Kugel: When you look back on that now, do you think diet or lifestyle, and environment may have played a role in her condition?
Dame Dash: I don't know, because she was actually pretty healthy. My mom went through different phases with her health, but she always had asthma and a lot of that is hereditary. That is why I have [Type 1] Diabetes. My mom was always conscious of our food, but I did eat some bullshit with her. I do think, along with the anxiety and stress of being a Black woman and alone may have added to it. But I remember her saying to me, "Don't ever let yourself say you have it, or that it is yours (regarding inheriting his mother's asthma). It's not yours." And I was too much of an athletic guy to be wheezing.

Allison Kugel: How did you get involved with this new film, They're Trying to Kill Us (produced and directed by Keegan Kuhn, who also worked on What the Health)?
Raquel "Rocky" Horn: One of our friends is good friends with Bad Ass Vegan [John Lewis].
Dame Dash: A friend of a friend, John Salley, knew them.
Raquel "Rocky" Horn: We had a friend who is really good friends with Bad Ass Vegan, and made the interview happen with Damon. From there, we actually got to interview both of them for my show, Health Is Wealth. So we flipped the cameras on them.
Allison Kugel: Damon, what are your thoughts on some of the conclusions drawn in the film, They're Trying to Kill Us, regarding slavery and how a lot of foods and lifestyle choices that Black Americans consider to be part of their culture, are actually detrimental to their health and throwbacks to slavery? What are your thoughts on that?
Dame Dash: I think it is strategic. It's brilliant that the enemy used that as warfare, and how long it has affected us. Now that we are aware of it, we should just break the program. [Corporations and politicians] know how to keep us in a place of distress and keep us unhealthy and arguing with each other and struggling. Keep us hating each other. They know how to keep making us eat to escape the life we hate. Look at what many of us eat while we come out of church, while we are worshiping their God, in the name Jesus, which is a European interpretation of the name Joshua (or Yeshua). So they give us this food to eat after they have given us that religion, and that is the reason most people are depressed. Unless we are happy with being unhappy, why would we not change it? The only way to change something is to do it different, and you have to make a change to be a change. So, what is the change going to be? If you want your circumstances different, you have to do it different. Are you going to eat different? Think different? Love different? Are you going to love yourself different? It has to be different to have a different outcome.

Allison Kugel: The film also talks about urban areas devoid of healthy grocery stores, called "food deserts." Neighborhoods filled with bodegas, liquor stores, fast food, but no healthy options. Was that your experience growing up?
Dame Dash: There was always a grocery store. But that little quick fix was also always readily available.
Raquel "Rocky" Horn: You mainly ate at the bodegas.
Dame Dash: Yes, I ate at the bodegas. That is my point and what I'm saying. I would go to the bodegas instead of going to the grocery store because instead of spending ten dollars, I would spend one dollar. I would end up buying fast food or potato chips and buying what I could get for that dollar. It was those short fixes and it was unhealthy, but would get you through the day. That is still every day, all day, for a lot of people's whole life.
Allison Kugel: Tell me if you guys agree with this, because I've been eating a lot more plant-based foods lately, and I find I am not as hungry, overall? You're eating less calories, but you are eating more nutritionally dense food, and you're not hungry as much. Is that true for you?
Dame Dash: It depends. We are in the house a lot and we are next to a kitchen, so we snack a lot! But while I'm working, I also smoke weed all day, so I'm high.
Raquel "Rocky" Horn: I do believe that the good food you eat makes your body feel better, and it also makes you feel energized. You have proper energy rather than empty calories from bad food.
Dame Dash: Good food and sex is important.
Allison Kugel: I agree (laugh), but food and sex don't go together. You have to be on an empty stomach.
Raquel "Rocky" Horn: Like, a full Thanksgiving belly is…
Allison Kugel: Right. Who wants to have sex on Thanksgiving? You can't.
Dame Dash: But every other day, there has to be sex. We have sex in the morning now. It's been a little challenging having a baby, only because he sleeps with us and he's definitely monopolized the top part of her body, and he's a hater. He can sense me touching her. He doesn't want another brother there. He says, "Mommy" all day. He's the boss, so I do have a boss now. He's my little CEO, and he's better dressed than me. The whole house is him. I have to sing to him. We make songs together. He plays the piano and the guitar. He's about to have a guitar lesson. He's stuck on The Beatles and he is very musical because I turned him into a rock star. And he's pretty much been eating plant-based too.
Raquel "Rocky" Horn: I wrote a book for him, that just came out, called, Dusko Goes to Space.
Allison Kugel: Oh, that is so cute.
Raquel "Rocky" Horn: Yeah, it's about him and his best friend, Governor, traveling, and they are about two. His whole [nursery] is space-themed, like his book, with all of the planets.
Dusko Goes to Space by Raquel M. Horn (Photo courtesy Dame Dash Studios)
Allison Kugel: Do you want Dusko to go into the music industry?
Raquel "Rocky" Horn: I don't mind it. Whatever he wants to do, I just want him to be creative.
Allison: Are you and Dame going to get married?
Raquel "Rocky" Horn: At some point, after Covid ends. I want to show you the engagement ring I gave Damon. I gave Damon an engagement ring. I had been wanting to give him that. Damon's birthstone is emerald, and I love emeralds. I've always loved emeralds since I was a little kid, so it was a really special thing. I thought, "Why do girls always get the engagement ring? So I got him one, too.
Allison Kugel: Dame, what did you think of Rocky giving you an engagement ring?
Dame Dash: I loved it. It was beautiful.
Allison Kugel: That didn't throw you off?
Dame Dash: We're pretty strategic about what we do, so it was just the timing of it all. She had already accepted my engagement. We've asked each other to marry each other so many times and my tax problems were in the way, so we are almost there. We have a baby, and we are so in love that we don't even know when or what, but it just goes without saying. It just represents how fly our relationship is.
"The only way to change something is to do it different, and you have to make a change to be a change."
Allison Kugel: Weird question: Do you consider weed part of a healthy lifestyle?
Dame Dash: I think it's different strokes for different folks. I'm a stoner. I really believe weed is healthy, cannabis. I'm part Anunnaki, and I know the Anunnaki's brought weed to this planet.
Allison Kugel: Can you function and think clearly when you are not smoking?
Dame Dash: Yes, but I have more patience when I'm smoking. I'm easily triggered because I think the rest of the world is dumb. They're slow, and I just don't have time for it. Not many people are cut from the same cloth as me. I can't judge people, because they are not as evolved. I just have to stay away from them.
Allison Kugel: Would you say you are outside the "matrix?"
Dame Dash: I think I'm more aware. I don't know why, but I've had a heightened level of awareness of self-worth since the day I was born. I know I come from a royal lineage, and I just know I'm meant to be a king and treated like one, and a real king fights for his love. What comes with being a king is not just reaping the fruits, it's fighting for it.
Allison Kugel: What are your thoughts on what happened with the Astroworld Music Festival tragedy? Do you think that would have happened in the music business of twenty years ago?
Dame Dash: It did happen twenty years ago. It happened with Puff at the CCNY Charity basketball game put on by Puff and Heavy D in 1991, and I was there. Seven people died, they got smothered. I saw that happen. I actually lost friends in situations like that. I don't know the homeboy (Travis Scott), and I can't blame anybody because I don't know enough about it, but those things have happened, yes, and I've been a part of those kinds of tragedies. I've seen what it looks like to see people get smothered in the confusion and the chaos that comes with it. I actually know what it feels like to be in that situation, but I was up in the stands, so I got in early, but they all got stuck in the staircase and shit. I lost my friend. Her name was Dawn and she died at that basketball game. Life is so unpredictable, how something that is supposed to be a dream turns into a nightmare. That is why you have to be conscious of things. I would not have had children there. I would not have brought my kids to that festival, that is one thing I would not have done. When I hear about children being there, I think, "Why was a nine-year-old there in the first place?"
Allison Kugel: I know, but I feel so terrible to put shame on a parent that is already grieving the loss of a child. You know what I mean?
Dame Dash: I'm not putting shame. No shame. Nothing but compassion, but at the end of the day, please don't take your children, during Covid, to a concert where there are a bunch of adults you know who are going to be getting high. That doesn't make logical sense. I feel sorry for every single person that had to experience that. What happened thirty years ago still sticks with me. Whether I got affected or not, I got affected. I lost people and I saw people lose their lives.
Allison Kugel: Would you say you had PTSD from your experience?
Dame Dash: I still have it. I have it from a lot of things. That is why I talk to a therapist and I have a show on my network called Healing is Gangsta. I have had a lot of trauma that I had to deal with. Being from this culture is traumatizing. Being a woman and in this culture must be doubly traumatizing. People think it's normal, and it's not. You can't let your normal be unhappy or being uncomfortable. For me, if I'm bothered, I want answers right now. I'm not internalizing anything, because it causes cancer. If we have stress that we are internalizing it is going to make us sick inside. I couldn't imagine not having enough courage to speak exactly what I'm feeling honestly, every time I feel it. If I had to hold everything in that I'm feeling, I would be miserable. That is the reason I'm so happy because there is nothing but honest words coming out of my mouth.

In a post-Brexit Britain, hate-crime is on the rise and our government is tearing at the seams. However, what you can count on is British people to self-deprecate as a defence. Our history has been spotty to say the least so it's probably for the best that we've developed the ability to not take ourselves too seriously lest the rest of the world judges us.
The poll surveyed 1,052 British people and found, just to start, that 60% of people would rather be British than any other nationality on earth!
Good traits featured our prime sense of humour and being friendly, for some reason. The former I can get on board with: we have created some damn good sit-coms over the years, however, friendliness shouldn't be on there – when was the last time you got on the tube and weren't treated like an oxygen thief?
Typically, the older generation felt the most proud of their British heritage with 71% of the age 55-75 age bracket saying that they'd rather be British than any other citizen of Britain.
The worst traits of British people were our inability to drink reasonably, being ignorant of other cultures, complaining too much, intolerant to the fringes of society and laziness… that all sounds pretty accurate.
Agree with this or not, you can't deny that British people feel really strong about this little island of our's.

An argument from ignorance asserts that a proposition is true if it hasn't been proved false*. This article does nothing more than that.
The proposition is that Jesus was resurrected from the dead. the conclusion is that it's true because there are problems with potential counter-explanations (e.g., that the disciples invented it for nefarious purposes) or, more generally, that a counter-explanation is lacking ("Where's the Alternative?").
This is the very definition of an argument from ignorance. How this could be any clearer I do not know. You say "the skeptic must offer some plausible explanation". NO! It is not the skeptic's responsibility. YOU have proffered the idea. YOU must show why it's true. The lack of a negative argument to your proposition says NOTHING about it's veracity.
If you accept Jesus' resurrection because there is nothing explicit to tear down the assertion that "the disciples so deeply believed they had experienced the risen Jesus it transformed them", then you must also accept without counter argument the truth of other religions because there are people living today who will testify that THEIR lives have been transformed by their beliefs.
Paul's mystical transformation experience is but one of many recorded experiences from many traditions. It is absurd to think that his experience outweighs another person's experience of Muhammad or the Buddha simply because you find alternatives lacking. The alternatives are irrelevant. You must provide positive proof just as you would require of a Muslim or a Buddhist or a person who believes they were probed by aliens.
You wrote "An argument from ignorance asserts that a proposition is true if it hasn't been proved false*. This article does nothing more than that." You're completely wrong here. The assertion is "The Gospel accounts are intentional falsehoods." That is the claim that needs proof. Historians don't begin by dismissing ancient documents as lies. It is the skeptic that is asserting motive. The documents themselves stand as multiple pieces of historical data that need to be accounted for, including their claim that Jesus rose from the dead. For more on this, don't look to Wikipedia. Look at the first chapter of Michael Licona's book _The Resurrection of Jesus: A New historiographical Approach_. Licona is very fair. If you want another scholastic source on the general approach to understanding and interpreting historical data, read Richard J. Evans' book _In Defense of History_.
However, your thoughts gradually but clearly creep into a larger realm, that of the resurrection being true simply because there's no credible, alternative explanation. Your summary paragraph reveals the thread winding its way throughout.
"How does the skeptic account for these things and is their account more plausible than the resurrection itself? I don't think any alternative theory has measured up to the challenge."
You are not focused solely on the refutation of the fraud proposition but you seek to prop up the truth of the resurrection through fallacious argument referencing all proposed natural explanations of which you have only attacked one very weak explanation.
It matters not whether one explanation or all "alternative" explanations are defeated. The result is the same: one cannot accept the resurrection simply for lack of a falsifying proof. Thus, an argument from ignorance.
I refer you back to the last paragraph of my previous post.
I find this all terribly unconvincing. EVEN IF we grant that the resurrection is the best explanation of the evidence, so what? The "best" explanation can still be pretty bad. Like being the "best" luge team in Somalia. If the competitors are weak, the "best" may not be entitled to much respect. This is an often forgotten point in pop discussions of the resurrection.
It seems to me we simply cannot assume that nothing significant was lost from the historical record. Do we really know that if we had complete facts we would still consider the resurrection the best explanation?
How could we know that?
I marvel that some Christians keep trying to extract enough certainty from the data to support their religious beliefs.

by Rita Williams-Garcia
In this Newbery Honor novel, New York Times bestselling author Rita Williams-Garcia tells the story of three sisters who travel to Oakland, California, in 1968 to meet the mother who abandoned them. "This vibrant and moving award-winning novel has heart to spare."*
Eleven-year-old Delphine is like a mother to her two younger sisters, Vonetta and Fern. She's had to be, ever since their mother, Cecile, left them seven years ago for a radical new life in California. But when the sisters arrive from Brooklyn to spend the summer with their mother, Cecile is nothing like they imagined.
While the girls hope to go to Disneyland and meet Tinker Bell, their mother sends them to a day camp run by the Black Panthers. Unexpectedly, Delphine, Vonetta, and Fern learn much about their family, their country, and themselves during one truly crazy summer.
This moving, funny novel won the Scott O'Dell Award for Historical Fiction and the Coretta Scott King Award and was a National Book Award Finalist. Delphine, Vonetta, and Fern's story continues in P.S. Be Eleven and Gone Crazy in Alabama.
Readers who enjoy Christopher Paul Curtis's The Watsons Go to Birmingham and Jacqueline Woodson's Brown Girl Dreaming will find much to love in One Crazy Summer.
This novel was the first featured title for Marley D's Reading Party, launched after the success of #1000BlackGirlBooks. Maria Russo, in a New York Times list of "great kids' books with diverse characters," called it "witty and original."

Good thing the plane had seat belts and we'd been strapped in tight before takeoff. Without them, that last jolt would have been enough to throw Vonetta into orbit and Fern across the aisle. Still, I anchored myself and my sisters best as I could to brace us for whatever came next. Those clouds weren't through with us yet and dealt another Cassius Clay–left–and–a–right jab to the body of our Boeing 727.
Vonetta shrieked, then stuck her thumb in her mouth. Fern bit down on Miss Patty Cake's pink plastic arm. I kept my whimper to myself. It was bad enough my insides squeezed in and stretched out like a monkey grinder's accordion—no need to let anyone know how frightened I was.
I took a breath so, when my mouth finally opened, I'd sound like myself and not like some scared rabbit. It's just the clouds bumping, I told my sisters. Like they bumped over Detroit and Chicago and Denver.
Vonetta pulled her thumb out of her mouth and put her head in her lap. Fern held on to Miss Patty Cake. They listened to me.
We push our way up in the clouds; the clouds get mad and push back. Like you and Fern fighting over red and gold crayons. I didn't know about clouds fighting and pushing for a fact, but I had to tell my sisters something. As long as Vonetta kept her fear to one shriek and Fern kept hers to biting Miss Patty Cake, I kept on spinning straw, making everything all right. That's mainly what I do. Keep Vonetta and Fern in line. The last thing Pa and Big Ma wanted to hear was how we made a grand Negro spectacle of ourselves thirty thousand feet up in the air around all these white people.
You know how Papa is, I told them. No way he'd put us on a plane if it were dangerous.
They halfway believed me. Just as I had that soft plastic arm out of Fern's mouth, those Cassius Clay–fighting clouds threw our 727 another jab.
Big Ma—that's Pa's mother—still says Cassius Clay. Pa says Muhammad Ali or just Ali. I slide back and forth from Cassius Clay to Muhammad Ali. Whatever picture comes to mind. With Cassius Clay you hear the clash of fists, like the plane getting jabbed and punched. With Muhammad Ali you see a mighty mountain, greater than Everest, and can't no one knock down a mountain.
All the way to the airport, Pa had tried to act like he was dropping off three sacks of wash at the Laundromat. I'd seen through Pa. He's no Vonetta, putting on performances. He has only one or two faces, nothing hidden, nothing exaggerated. Even though it had been his idea that we fly out to Oakland to see Cecile, Pa'd never once said how exciting our trip would be. He just said that seeing Cecile was something whose time had come. That it had to be done. Just because he decided it was time for us to see her didn't mean he wanted us to go.
My sisters and I had stayed up practically all night California dreaming about what seemed like the other side of the world. We saw ourselves riding wild waves on surfboards, picking oranges and apples off fruit trees, filling our autograph books with signatures from movie stars we'd see in soda shops. Even better, we saw ourselves going to Disneyland.
We had watched airplanes lift up and fly off into blue sky as we neared the airport. Every time another airliner flew overhead, leaving a trail of white and gray smoke, Big Ma fanned herself and asked, Jesus, why?
Big Ma had kept quiet long enough. Once inside the terminal, she let it all hang out. She told Pa, I don't mind saying it, but this isn't right. Coming out to Idlewild and putting these girls on a plane so Cecile can see what she left behind. If she wants to see, let her get on an airplane and fly out to New York.
Big Ma doesn't care if President Kennedy's face is on the half-dollar or if the airport is now officially named after him. She calls the airport by its old name, Idlewild. Don't get me wrong. Big Ma was as mad and sad as anyone when they killed the president. It's change she has no pity on. However things are stamped in Big Ma's mind is how they will be, now and forever. Idlewild will never be JFK. Cassius Clay will never be Muhammad Ali. Cecile will never be anything other than Cecile.
I can't say I blamed Big Ma for feeling the way she did. I certainly didn't forgive Cecile.
When Cecile left, Fern wasn't on the bottle. Vonetta could walk but wanted to be picked up. I was four going on five. Pa wasn't sick, but he wasn't doing well, either. That was when Big Ma came up from Alabama to see about us.
Even though Big Ma read her Scripture daily, she hadn't considered forgiveness where Cecile was concerned. Cecile wasn't what the Bible meant when it spoke of love and forgiveness. Only judgment, and believe me, Big Ma had plenty of judgment for Cecile. So even if Cecile showed up on Papa's welcome mat, Big Ma wouldn't swing the front door open.
That was why Pa had put us on a plane to Oakland. Either Cecile wouldn't come back to Brooklyn or she wasn't welcome. Honestly, I don't think Pa could choose between Big Ma and Cecile even after Cecile left him. And us. Even after Cecile proved Big Ma right.
How can you send them to Oakland? Oakland's nothing but a boiling pot of trouble cooking. All them riots.
Pa has a respectful way of ignoring Big Ma. I wanted to smile. He's good at it.
A shrill voice had announced the departing flight to Oakland. All three of us had butterflies. Our first airplane ride. Way up above Brooklyn. Above New York. Above the world! Although I could at least keep still, Vonetta and Fern stamped their feet like holy rollers at a revival meeting.
Big Ma had grabbed them by the first scruff of fabric she could get ahold of, bent down, and told them to act right. There weren't too many of us in the waiting area, and too many of them were staring.
I'd taken a quick count out of habit. Vonetta, Fern, and I were the only Negro children. There were two soldier boys in green uniforms who didn't look any older than Uncle Darnell—high school cap and gown one day, army boots and basic training four days later. Two teenage girls with Afros. Maybe they were college students. And one lady dressed like Jackie Kennedy, carrying a small oval suitcase.
Big Ma had also scouted around the waiting room. I knew she worried that we'd be mistreated in some way and sought out a grown, brown face to look out for us. Big Ma turned her nose up at the college girls with Afros in favor of the Negro lady in the square sunglasses and snappy suit toting the equally snappy oval bag. Big Ma made eye contact with her. When we lined up, she'd told the Negro Jackie Kennedy, These my grandbabies. You look out for them, y'hear. The snappy Negro lady had been nice enough to smile but hadn't returned the look that Big Ma expected—and Big Ma had expected the look Negro people silently pass each other. She'd expected this stranger to say, as if she were a neighbor, They're as good as my own. I'll make sure they don't misbehave or be an embarrassment to the Negro race. A blank movie-star smile had been all she passed to Big Ma. That lady had only been looking out for her plane seat.
Papa had already given me a paper with the phone number to our house, which I knew by heart, and the phone number to his job. He had already told me that his job number was for emergencies only and not for how you doing chats. Last night he had also given me an envelope with two hundred dollars in ten-and twenty-dollar bills to put in my suitcase. Instead, I'd folded the bills and stuffed them in my tennis shoe before we left Herkimer Street. Walking on that mound of money felt weird at first, but at least I knew the money was safe.
Papa had kissed Vonetta and Fern and told me to look after my sisters. Even though looking after them would have been nothing new, I kissed him and said, I will, Papa.
When the line to the ticket taker had begun to move, Big Ma had gotten teary and mushed us up in her loose-fitting, violet and green muumuu dress. Better come on and get some loving now . . . She hadn't had to finish the rest about how this might be the last time in a long while for kissing and hugging. A flash of memory told me Cecile wasn't one for kissing and hugging.
I had a lot of those memories clicking before me like projector slides in the dark. Lots of pictures, smells, and sounds flashing in and out. Mostly about Cecile, all going way, way back. And what I didn't remember clearly, Uncle Darnell always filled in. At least Uncle Darnell remembers Cecile kindly.
I glanced at my Timex. Among the three of us, I was the only one responsible enough to keep and wear a wristwatch. Vonetta let a girl see hers and never got it back. Fern was still learning to tell time, so I kept hers in my drawer until she was ready to wear it.
Six and a half hours had passed since we'd hugged Big Ma and kissed Pa at John F. Kennedy Airport. The clouds had made peace with our Boeing 727. It was safe to breathe. I stretched as far as my legs could go.
With these long legs I'm taken for twelve or thirteen, even a little older. No one ever guesses eleven going on twelve on their first try. More than my long legs, I'm sure it's my plain face that throws them off. Not plain as in homely plain, but even plain. Steady. I'm not nine or seven and given to squealing or oohing like Vonetta and Fern. I just let my plain face and plain words speak for me. That way, no one ever says, Huh? to me. They know exactly what I mean.
We were long gone from thick, white clouds, the plane steadily climbing down. The intercom crackled, and the pilot made an announcement about the descent and altitude and that we would be landing in ten minutes. I let all of that pass by until he said, . . . and to your left as we circle the bay is the Golden Gate Bridge.
I was now a liar! A stone-faced liar. I wanted to squeal and ooh like a seven-year-old meeting Tinker Bell. I had read about the Golden Gate Bridge in class. The California gold rush. The Chinese immigrants building the railroads connecting east to west. It wasn't every day you saw a live picture of what you read about in your textbook. I wanted to look down from above the world and see the Golden Gate Bridge.
Being stuck in the middle seat, I was mad at myself. Of the three of us, I was the first to board the 727. Why hadn't I taken the window seat when I'd had my chance?
Instead of the squeal I knew wouldn't come out of me in the first place, I sighed. No use crying about it now. The truth was, one pout from either Vonetta or Fern and I would have given up the window seat.
This was the only way it could be: Vonetta and Fern on either side and me in between them. Six and a half hours was too long a time to have Vonetta and Fern strapped side by side picking at each other. We would have been the grand Negro spectacle that Big Ma had scolded us against becoming when we were back in Brooklyn.
Still, the Golden Gate Bridge was getting away from me. I figured at least one of us should see it. And that should be the one who read about it in class.
Look, Vonetta. Look down at the bridge!
Vonetta stayed tight to her stubborn curl, her chin in her lap. I'm not looking.
I turned to my right and got a mouthful of hair and barrettes. Fern had leaned over from her aisle seat. I wanna see. Make her switch. To Fern, the Golden Gate Bridge sounded like Sleeping Beauty's castle. She halfway believed in things not true and didn't know where fairy

This book was special to me as it took place during 1968 which was one of the most tumultious years during civil rights. These three young girls are sent to spend a few weeks with a mother who abandoned them 7 years earlier. They are not welcomed when they get to her home in Oakland CA and she will not take care of them. They eat at the homeless shelter and their mother sends them to a
Black Panther summer camp. The girls learn to grow up quickly. I recommend this book and it is on the Middle school battle of the books list this year.
It's 1968 and eleven-year-old Dephine and her two younger sisters have been sent from their Brooklyn home to Oakland to visit a mother they basically don't know. Their mother, Cecil, left them right after the youngest sister was born. But now their father believes it's time for the girls to know their mother and vice versa.
When they arrive, it's clear they are not welcome. It's a good thing Delphine knows how to take care of herself and her sisters, because their mother has no intention of caring for them. When they complain of hunger, she sends them up the street for take-out Chinese food. In the morning she tells them to go to the People's Center for breakfast. They are to stay there all day and join the Black Panther Day Camp.
Delphine had high hopes of getting to know this mother she barely remembers. But, within a few days, Delphine believes she's just crazy. Cecil has changed her name and calls herself a poet. Gradually Dephine changes her mind about her being crazy. But it's not until the end of the story that Delphine, and the reader, get a glimpse into the background of Cecil.
The other thing Delphine learned was a first-hand education in black history, black pride, and specifically the Black Panther movement. It's all seen through the eyes of a child.

"We all have our la-la-la song. The thing we do when the world isn't singing a nice tune to us. We sing our own nice tune to drown out ugly."
Delphine and her younger sisters, Vonetta and Fern, are flying from New York to California alone. Being the oldest, Delphine's in charge, but it's not easy keeping two little sisters in line. What's even harder is the fact that it's the late 1960s, and they have the fear of Big Ma (their grandma) in them, which reminds them that they're representing all African-American people. Delphine doesn't want her sisters to do anything wrong. When they get to California, they are met by their mother, Cecile, who seems like a shifty character with her sunglasses and quick ways through the airport. Cecile abandoned them seven years before and doesn't seem very motherly when she takes them to her apartment. She won't even let them in the kitchen! Each step of the way, Delphine acts like a little mother trying to protect her sisters and help them to have the best experience possible. Cecile lets them do things they would never be allowed to do back in New York, like go out to pick up Chinese food for dinner by themselves in an unfamiliar city. This whole new world brings with it a slew of rules and way of living for Delphine and her sisters. When the girls go to a camp that's run by the Black Panthers, they see a lifestyle that's foreign to them, but Delphine loves seeing the way the people are spreading peace. When the girls are asked to take part in a rally, Delphine is sure that they should not be a part of it, because she knows how her dad and Big Ma would react. After she takes her sisters on a special sightseeing outing around San Francisco, a trip she has planned down to the last penny, they come back to find the police arresting Cecile and two men. What will happen now that the girls have no parent to live with? How will each girl change? Who will help them until it's time for them to go back to New York? What lessons are they learning? Should the girls participate in the rally? You have to read this amazing story to find out what life is like for these three girls in 1960s Oakland.
One Crazy Summer by Rita Williams-Garcia is the story of three girls learning and growing. They move to a world unlike any they have known before, and a new way of life is unveiled to them. It showed me that you can't go miles away from home and live in a different environment without seeing things in a new light. My heart went out to Delphine as she tried to be a good older sister and a wonderful caretaker. I was so scared for her when her mom was taken to jail. I always feel bad for a character that has to grow up before their time, but at least in this case the girls are able to learn some important lessons. This book opened my eyes to a different culture and made me think about what it might be like for people to have a parent they never really knew. The voices of the girls jumped off the page, and I still feel like I know each one and can picture them easily. I recommend this book to kids in grades four and up because it will help them to see how far we've come as a nation and what life was like not that long ago. This is the first book I have read by this author, but I cannot wait to read more! I recently heard there is a sequel, and I look forward to picking it up. A must read for people that enjoy historical fiction and strong characters!

My main complaint about this book is how little background there is -- this is not a part of American history that most kids study or will understand without some explanation, I think, and Williams-Garcia just drops you right in. I would be all over this as a classroom read with plenty of discussion.
(Though honestly, I also find that it hasn't stuck with me. Neither the characters nor the setting really sung for me. I was disappointed, given how critically acclaimed the book is.)

In the summer of 1968, three young sisters travel on their own, sent by their father from Brooklyn to Oakland, California, to visit their mother, who walked out on them when Delphine (the oldest, now 11) was only five. They spend a month trying to get to know this woman, who frequently reminds them that she didn't ask for them to visit and won't stand for them to disturb her peace and quiet while she writes poetry. So they spend their days at a community center run by the Black Panthers, coloring protest signs, handing out political flyers, and learning what it means to be empowered.I love how the two parts of the story - the sisters struggling to come to terms with their mother against the backdrop of Oakland in the late '60s - are woven together so well. It makes a compelling story, made even better by the lively characters of the the three sisters.

This book is a perfect introduction to the Civil Rights Movement and the Black Panthers for young adult readers. Delphine and her sisters are believable and individually characterized. The mom, Cecil, is credible as well. This story of the girls' summer with their mom who abandoned them years ago is realistic, and engaging. The girls find themselves at the center of the Black Panther movement in Oakland, CA in the 1960s. The book skillfully blends historical accuracy with fictionalized characters. It is an enjoyable and informative read.This book would be a good one to include in a unit on the Civil Rights Movement. It is also a good source of some information about the Black Panthers. It is a good book to use when talking about family, and family relationships.

I just loved this book that takes place in the summer of 1968, in the thick of the fight for civil rights. The narrator is the oldest of three girls—Delphine is 11, her sisters Vonetta and Fern are 9 and 7— and live with their father and grandmother in Brooklyn. They are sent to their poet-activist mother in Oakland, California, to stay with her for the summer, to get to know her—though she soon makes it clear to the girls that she didn't send for them and they aren't welcome. She sends them out every morning to the The Black Panther-run People's Center, where they can get breakfast, lunch, an education in freedom and empowerment, and keep out of her way until dinnertime. The story is moving, at times humorous, and most of all, it shows history with women and kids in it.

One Crazy Summer is one monumental book! Classified as YA, it's a must read for anyone who ever was a child and/or had siblings. And a difficult family situation. And unknowable adults. Delphine, Vonetta, and Fern take their first flight from Brooklyn to Oakland to spend a month with their runaway mom during the 1960s. Told in Delphine's practical and brutally honest voice, the three girls stay true to themselves while immensely widening their worldview and their inner selves. They join the Black Panther Party's free breakfast and school program, and the reader learns the truth about this often maligned group, now so faded into the craziness of the era. Brilliantly written, a fast, heartfelt, memorable read.

Hmm. Maybe 3.5 stars. I guess this was good, but for some reason it didn't quite hit me. Maybe because there was no leavening humor, and the main character was a bit under-developed - she was more of a role-filler than a real person. Still, it belongs in every 5th-or 6th- grade Social Studies classroom, imo. Now I'm off to look up We Real Cool by Gwendolyn Brooks.

Delphine and her sisters Vonetta and Fern have never known their mother Cecile who took off after Fern was born. They've been raised by their Pa and grandmother Big Ma. This summer, Pa decides to send the girls to Oakland to stay with Cecile so they can get to know her. Cecile is a poet and active with the Black Panthers, but as Delphine says, she is no kind of mother. Indifferent Cecile sends the girls off to the free Black Panthers breakfast served everyday and tells them not to come home until dinner. Delphine takes it upon herself to look out for her sisters during their visit, attending the Panthers' summer camp and learning about revolution and power to the people. Delphine doesn't allow herself to get too swayed by all the revolutionary talk but she does absorb enough to finally understand her mother. Delphine is a strong, observant, and practical girl, taking the initiative when she needs to. A wonderful character to get to know!

Delphine, Vonetta and Fern are sent to Oakland, CA by their Pa so they can meet the mother who abandoned them right after Fern was born. When they get to Oakland Cecile is nothing that they expected. The girls wanted her to shower them with affection but Cecile just isn't like that. As far as Cecile is concerned she didn't ask them to come visit and they should stay out of her way so she sends the girls to the Black Panther's summer camp every day.
Delphine, Vonetta and Fern are all wonderful characters. I found them funny, interesting and a little bit sad. I wanted Delphine to be a kid so bad that it hurt sometimes. I thought Fern was so much smarter than anyone gave her credit for and Vonnetta has that interesting mix of total ham and fear of attention that I have always found intriguing. Cecile is definitely a litte bit crazy and I spent a chunk of the book thing Pa was crazy for sending them out Oakland. I thought Cecile's confessions to Delphine finally made her seem more normal and human. I had spent much of the book wondering if she had some kind of mental illenss and once the details were out a lot of things made sense. The historical details were really interesting and amazing and there were definitely a lot of parallels between what went on in this book and The Revolution of Evelyn Serrano.
Due to some crazy time issues this book actually took a lot longer for me to read than it should of. I bring it up b/c I think this books short length would make it a great historical fiction read for a reluctant reader and I feel like read a historical fiction book is a middle school assignment on a fairly regular basis (I get it at least once a year.)

This is going to be a very short review because I can't imagine a better book to help teach young readers about the civil rights. The writing was perfect and the storytelling was exactly how it should have been. All I can say in reviewing this book is simply, "Get it. Get it and read it over and over again. Read it to your children and recommend it to everyone."

This was a good read but tough to get through. I was so angry with Cecile - she doesn't care for or interact with Dephine, Vonetta or Fern. I admired 11 year old Delphine for taking care of her sisters on the plane trip from Brooklyn to Oakland and while they were at their mother's. The story is well written and I liked seeing the p.o.v. of Delphine as she tries to figure out her place with her mother and as an African American girl. It was eye-opening to see the different ways that black families reacted to racism and prejudice. Delphine's father and grandmother wanted her to represent her entire race. Imagine how difficult that would be! Others, like the Black Panthers, wanted to fight back. This is a great story for exploring the Civil Rights period in the U.S.

I loved this from the first chapter! Delphine and her fierce determination to take care of her sisters, even while she sees their flaws. The historical details. Delphine's voice, her observations, the tension of her forced responsibility and her need to still be an 11 year old girl, and the complex figure of the girl's mother.

Three girls are sent to their mother, Cecile in California. Her mother abandoned them when they were little. This funny, exciting, marvelous book is an incredible journey that is unforgetable. If you like kids who find some of their family, and really know where they came from, and some comedy hinted here and there, this will be a good story for you!

I've been wanting to read this for a long time. Finally got to with my EL510 class. The book didn't disappoint, though it didn't blow me away either. I thought Delphine's narrative voice was strong, I was expecting more "oomph" from the plotlines of the Black Panthers and the girls' relationship with their estranged poet mother. The strongest part of this book for me was Delphine's voice and the connection she shares with her sisters. Anyone with siblings will be able to understand the ups and downs of Delphine's, Vonneta's, and Fern's relationships. Pretty pleased that there is a sequel about how the normalcy of growing up changes the sisters' relationship!

Delphine and her two younger sisters, Vonetta and Fern, are off to Oakland, CA to spend the summer with their mother, Cecile. But this is no happy reunion, and Oakland is not all sunshine and Disneyland. Cecile wants next to nothing to do with her daughters, having walked out on them 7 years earlier. Plus, it's 1968, and the Black Panthers are working hard in this poor community to gain rights and spread the word.
Cecile, or Sister Nzila, is involved, albeit grudgingly, in the cause. Throughout the four weeks they spend in Oakland, Delphine and her sisters get mixed up in one thing after another, attending the Black Panthers day camp and learning about the revolution and its people.
Winner of the Coretta Scott King Award and the recipient of a Newbery Honor, this middle grade novel certainly deserves them. Narrated by 11-year-old Delphine, the writing is sharp and to the point. Delphine doesn't dance around issues (unless it comes to her own feelings about certain things). The writing is excellent, with language perfect for older elementary students and middle schoolers. I was pulled right into the story, could feel the tension between Cecile and her daughters, the unspoken words that Delphine was just dying to say yet too afraid to let out.
I loved how all of the characters were so fully realized. Cecile in particular struck me as particularly complex and layered. It's clear she never really wanted to be a mother, at least not in the traditional sense. She doesn't take care of her children as a mother is expected to, and many would say she is a bad mother. But she knows what she's fighting for, and will not back down in the face of oppression. She's passionate about her poetry; Delphine calls it praying, as Cecile bends over her work. Cecile is an incredibly strong and independent woman, admirable at least for that, even though she proves herself to be very flawed in other regards.
And how many books for younger readers are there about the Black Panthers? I learned a lot from this book about that part of American history; not much of it was covered during my formal education besides a few mentions in AP U.S. Names are mentioned and a bit of their histories are thrown in, and interested readers are given just enough to find more information through their own research. (This would be a great companion to a school unit about the Civil Rights Movement.)
Williams-Garcia writes this in her acknowledgments: "I wanted to write this story for those children who witnessed and were part of necessary change. Yes. There were children" (p 217). I will not forget anytime soon that children were involved in this revolution, thanks to Delphine and One Crazy Summer.

Three young African American sisters, Delphine, Vonetta and Fern travel to Oakland, California in 1968 to get to know their mother who abandoned them. Often left to fend for themselves, and thrust into the middle of a Black Rights Movement organization, 11-year-old Delphine takes on the role of protector for her younger sisters as she tries to break through her mother's distant attitude towards them. A touching story with a glimpse into the plight of African Americans and their struggle to fight for human rights. A highley recommended read.

This book is about overcoming obstacles. I very much enjoyed the pace and believable characters of this first person narrative. It was easy to identify with Delphine who was the oldest child and very much the mother figure, organizer and problem solver to her two sisters. Vonetta and Fern had distinct character traits. Vonetta was social and "showy and crowy" and Fern the youngest ,age six, still has a lot to learn about the world and how it works. Each were endearing characters and I found myself cheering for them and empathizing with them. The variety of experiences the girls face force them to experience feelings that some children have faced. For example, Fern is forced to accept the embarrassment then loss of her favorite doll when Kelvin makes fun of her and it then is defaced by her sister Vonetta. What I found difficult in this story were the over twentyfive chapters of struggles that were degrading, thoughtless, mean, etc. I was close to abandoning the book due to how depressing it seemed. Although the end was in several ways redeeming, it still left Delphine alone to face adult like scenarios without the aid of a caring adult. I never felt that Cecile, the mother who abandoned the three girls, justified any of her actions and choices by simply explaining her back story. Asking Delphine to "be eleven" was an impossible and unattainable expectation. An obligatory hug at the end does not fix all the wrongs. Delphine showed love, sacrifice and commitment in a very dysfunctional setting and is the hero of the story. I like how I learned about the Black Panther movement and era of unsettled race issues in the context of daily life in Oakland, CA. It certainly broadened my understanding of the tensions and issues of that era. The worth of this book was definitely found in how believable the characters were. I would probably not use it in the classroom with students under grade seven.

Frank Comisar Bio
Frank Comisar | Creative Stewardship
By Mara Blackwood
Nature photographer Frank Comisar has always had a deep love for the majesty of the outdoors, especially the American West. He preserves the incredible beauty of the natural world through the lense of his camera, creating images that are full of elegance and life.
Photo by Steve White
Comisar was born and raised in Omaha, Nebraska, where he had a normal, happy childhood. He explains, "Like so many traditional families of that era, we lived for summer vacation. I have vivid memories of my parents loading me and my sisters into the backseat of the family Chevy and heading west each summer. We visited many of our Nation's iconic National Parks and spent time camping, hiking, rafting, and taking pictures of these incredible places."
His father, though not a professional photographer, often had a camera in hand, capturing the beautiful scenery and wildlife they saw on these trips. His enthusiasm for nature and photography left a strong impression on Comisar, who also began to enjoy nature photography as a hobby.
As he grew up, Comisar continued to enjoy taking photographs on the rare occasions when he visited natural wonders like Yellowstone, Mesa Verde, and Glacier National Parks. However, he says, "I was not satisfied simply taking snapshots. I wanted more. I was not only interested in documenting my travels through photography but the artistic aspects of photography as well." Even though he did not pursue it professionally initially, Comisar continued to cultivate his love for photography.
Professionally, he took a different direction, earning a degree in architecture from the University of Nebraska-Lincoln and beginning a long career in that field. Soon after graduating, Comisar married and started a family. As he worked to become a successful architect and raise two children with his wife, Cheril, he had very little time to pursue photography and let that interest take the back seat.
Comisar worked as an architect for 27 years and eventually became president and CEO of an architecture and engineering firm. Despite the incredible professional and monetary success he experienced during this phase of his life, he began to see that something important was missing.
Looking to fill that void, Comisar began to rediscover his passion for nature photography, which became an "escape from the corporate grind." He started attending workshops taught by masters of fine-art nature photography and becoming familiar with the work of prominent American photographers like Ansel Adams and Edward Curtis. Both of these photographers became major influences for Comisar's own photography.
One of Curtis' pieces, "Canyon de Chelly-Navajo (1904)", was a source of awe and inspiration for Comisar and led him to the Four Corners area of the Southwest for the first time. The stunning landscape of that area quickly became a favorite source of subject matter for his photographs. "I love the big landscapes available here," he says. "The four corners area offers incredibly diverse subject matter. From the mountains and deserts of Colorado, New Mexico, Arizona, and Utah, the photo ops are never-ending."
Along with capturing the beautiful landscapes of the West, Comisar has also developed a love for photographing wildlife, especially birds. "Bird photography is very challenging as they move fast and are unpredictable. As such, to me there are few photographic experiences as satisfying as capturing a great image of a bird in its natural habitat."
Though Comisar is now a full-time nature photographer, his work is heavily influenced by his previous experience as an architect. Architects work with two dimensional media, such as paper and computer screens, to create our three dimensional built environment. In a somewhat related way, photographers capture the scale, emotion, and grandeur of the three dimensional world on two dimensional media such as paper, canvas, and metal. Many of the same principles of depicting the three-dimensional world in two dimensions apply to both photography and architecture, and Comisar's work is well-known for applying these principles artistically. Working as an architect also taught him that ". . . the creative process is not a destination but a journey. It is a journey that includes research, planning, timing, technical skills, creative judgment, and a bit of good luck."
Comisar shows his photographs at Scenic Aperture Gallery, which he owns with his wife, Cheril. Visitors to the gallery, which is located on historic Main Avenue in Durango, Colorado, have called his work "stunning," "crisp," and "gorgeous." He is also a member of the North American Nature Photography Association, and his work has been featured in a number of publications.
Additionally, he teaches workshops for aspiring photographers, giving them the skills he has developed over years of his own training and experience and opportunities to photograph some of the beautiful landscapes and wildlife he has come to love. The encouragement and mentorship he received at the beginning of his development as a photographer has been key to his success, and he hopes to share that with other photographers.
Comisar's journey to becoming a professional nature photographer was a long one, but Comisar has found joy in pursuing beauty. "I feel alive and energetic when surrounded by the flora and fauna of our natural world," he says. "I strive to communicate these emotions through my photography. My goal is to capture a moment in time that, when viewed in years to come, recalls the excitement and emotions of that moment. I know I've made a relevant photograph when it elicits a positive and emotional reaction from others."
He feels that it is his mission as an artist to "promote understanding, appreciation, and stewardship of our natural treasures."

Former prime minister Sir John Major. Pic by PA.
I can never understand why Westminster politicians need a summer break that extends from the summer until well into the autumn.
It cannot be because they have worked so hard delivering for those who elected them.
However come the end of next week Westminster will go into recess. Doubtless Theresa May will be glad of the respite – not from the opposition, but from members of her own party in open warfare over Brexit.
They have decided that the end they want – both pro-Brexit and pro-leave – justifies whatever means are used. If the consequence is collapse of the government and a general election some seem to deem that acceptable. Many would also welcome a hard Brexit with no deal in place, despite the clear message from across British industry that this would lead to a loss of jobs and a slow down in the economy, at least in the short term.
That the Conservative party should be tearing itself apart over Europe is no new phenomenon. It happened with John Major over the Maastricht treaty; it was why a frustrated David Cameron will be badly judged by history for calling a referendum on EU membership to try to end party squabbles. The strains in fact go back to the 1840s and the repeal of the Corn Laws, which had been put in place to protect wealthy landowners from imports of grain from Europe. The result was higher prices for food. Divisions over the Corn Laws split the Tory party, with the result that it was thirty years before it could again form a majority government. Brexit at all costs, regardless of the consequences, Conservative MPs may not like French terms – but what we are witnessing now has elements of plus ca change, and indeed deja vu.
These events have moved the possibility of two events up the agenda. The first is a collapse of the government, a vote against the fixed term parliament legislation, and a general election. Based on opinion polls this could result in a Labour government or a coalition with Labour as the major party. All bets on the future of farm support after the CAP would then be off. This would see the end of the plan being developed at DEFRA by Michael Gove to maintain support levels in return for the delivery of public goods. Farmers could live with his ideas, even if there is a clash over the detail and how powers and decision making are devolved. Labour's approach is an unknown.
The same political tensions at Westminster could equally – and probably more likely – result in a change of Conservative party leader and a hard Brexit. That would see the UK leave the EU on March 29 next year, with no trade deal or any other arrangements in place. This would be Brexit, raw in tooth and claw, which many in the Conservative party want. At a stroke everything would change, the most obvious being the movement of goods without customs barriers. World Trade Organisation (WTO) rules and tariffs would apply, and given the EU's fortress Europe approach, getting any agricultural products into the EU-27 would be a big challenge.
At the same time food coming from the EU to the UK would also face WTO tariffs. Since we import more food than we export that could help protect the UK market, and in theory deliver higher prices. A more likely hard Brexit outcome however would be that the government would highlight its global free trade credentials by allowing tariff free access to the UK for most products, in the hope that others would match that gesture. It would retain tariffs for industries of strategic significance. There is however no reason to extend this to food.
Opening the market to tariff free imports would enhance rather than reduce food security; it would give the food industry access to cheaper raw materials; above all it could reduce prices on supermarket shelves. Farmers would lose out, but the days of the Tory MPs from the shires are long gone. Today there are few in the urban-focussed Conservative party that would fight for farmers. The message would be that farmers need to focus on the top end of the market where they can gain from attracting a premium for products with better provenance than imports. This might sound harsh, but the economic logic of the short term fallout from a hard Brexit is hard to deny.

Fiorina As CEO: 'Colossal Failure' Or 'The Right Leader'?
Published September 26, 2015 at 3:09 AM MST
Mark J. Terrill
Republican presidential candidate, businesswoman Carly Fiorina speaks during the CNN Republican presidential debate at the Ronald Reagan Presidential Library and Museum on Sept. 16, 2015.
A strong showing during the Sept. 16 debate has put Carly Fiorina at the top of a crowded field of Republican presidential candidates. But in the corporate world, another debate remains: Fiorina's business record.
Donald Trump says as a businesswoman, Fiorina would be unqualified to lead one of his companies.
Chris Preovolos / AP
Fiorina rings a bell to virtually open the New York Stock Exchange from HP's headquarters in Palo Alto, Calif., on May 6, 2002. HP changed its ticker symbol from HWP to HPQ to reflect its $19 billion acquisition of Compaq Computer Corp.
"The head of the Yale business school, Jeffrey Sonnenfeld, wrote a paper recently (calling it), 'one of the worst tenures for CEOs that he has ever seen,'" Trump says.
Sonnenfeld's actual title is senior associate dean, but he says the rest is true: "Her business record is a colossal failure."
Fiorina, the daughter of a law professor-turned-judge, rose quickly at AT&T, becoming its first female senior vice president, then later president of its spinoff, Lucent. Lucent was a business supernova; it burned bright, then faded soon after she left. Part of its downfall lay in questionable-but-legal accounting that boosted revenues by loaning money to its customers.
Still, Sonnenfeld, along with many others, say Fiorina's biggest misstep was the expensive and unprofitable merger with Compaq. He says the highly controversial, strategically misguided deal she muscled through dragged the company and its stock down.
"Stapling together the carcasses of failing businesses is not a successful track record," Sonnenfeld says.
Still, Sonnenfeld says, executives often fail.
"Leaders go through adversity and we benefit from their failures because they come back from it and tell us how to get through it. But she doesn't, because she doesn't acknowledge it," Sonnenfeld says.
He believes that instead of accepting criticism, she shoots the messenger. It's a failure of character and leadership, he says.
"I get shot at as a result," Sonnenfeld says.
Former Compaq-turned HP senior vice president Bill Mutell bucks the critics.
"She was the right leader at the right time," he says.
Mutell, who has not contributed to her campaign, calls Fiorina a leader with character, courage and conviction. He argues the merger was a success that shored up both companies.
"Had that merger not occurred, I'm almost certain that [neither] company wouldn't be here today," Mutell says.
Much of the debate over her corporate performance boils down to two disparate views of HP's woes. Her critics attribute them to her decisions and leadership; her supporters — and Fiorina herself — blame the times.
"I led Hewlett-Packard through a very difficult time, the worst technology recession in 25 years," Fiorina says.
Tom Perkins is a Silicon Valley venture capitalist and former HP board member who, at the time, voted to fire Fiorina. But in a full-page ad in the New York Times paid for by a PAC supporting Fiorina, he defended her record and leadership.
Much of the political criticism of Fiorina's career stems from the 30,000 layoffs soon after the Compaq merger.
Her eventual successor at HP, Meg Whitman — who, like Fiorina, has run for office in California — has defended that decision.
"When Carly made those reductions it was probably — I wasn't here, but I suspect she was trying to do in some ways what I have tried to do, which is to make this company more competitive," Whitman told CNN Money in June.
She says the price of inaction would've been far greater.
Is Fiorina facing more flack as a female running for office? Yale professor Jeffrey Sonnenfeld points to other strong female contemporaries, saying gender was not Fiorina's issue. She was fired by HP chairwoman Patricia Dunn. Sonnenfeld argues her contemporaries — now IBM CEO Ginni Rometty and former Xerox CEO Anne Mulcahy — have better records.
"I do think that there are some added challenges that women CEOs have had, but it doesn't seem to be relevant in the particular case of Carly Fiorina," Sonnenfeld says.
But that, like everything else, is likely still up for debate.

Vikings put up fight, but fall to Wight's rush attack
Brian Reese
[email protected]
Touchdown, Murphy to Morgan! Touchdown, Murphy to Morgan! Broadwater fans saw this connection between senior quarterback and wide receiver four times in first half of the Vikings' (3-4) 60-26 loss at home to Isle of Wight (5-1) last Saturday.
The scoreline doesn't show how close the teams were in the first half -- Broadwater even held the lead on three separate occasions, including a 17-yard pass from Murphy to Morgan to tie the game at 26-all with 44 seconds remaining.
That quick Broadwater strike happened in about just about 20 seconds after the Chargers took the lead on a 15-yard pass and two point conversion to go up 26-10 with 1:04 to go.
Both teams looked like they would go to the locker rooms tied, but Isle of Wight completed a 45-yard pass to score in just seconds after their kickoff return, ending a back-and-forth series of four touchdowns between the two teams that all came under the last three minutes of the half.
Down 32-26 to start the third, Broadwater wasn't able to get the offense to finish drives in the second, while on the other side the visiting Chargers rushed for four touchdowns on the ground in the second half -- all from within fifteen yards.
Led by five-foot-ten, 175 lb. senior running back Alec Edward's three touchdown runs, the Chargers gave the ball to six different rushers with four scoring touchdowns.
The Vikings were only 5-12 on third downs and failed three times to convert on fourth down. Despite passing for four touchdowns and 223 yards, and continuing a stingy streak of zero interceptions for the year, Murphy was only 17-35 through the air.
His counterpart, Charger senior quarterback Bryce Casey, was 10-14 with three touchdowns and one interception, including the 45-yard touchdown pass to pull Isle of Wight ahead at the end of the first half.
Senior running back Tyler Major continued to be effective on the ground Saturday, even without scoring a touchdown. Major averaged 7.7 yards on 14 carries for 108 yards while adding nine tackles on defense for the Vikings.
Morgan was also effective on the defensive side of the ball. The rangy six-foot-two receiver and defensive back had nine tackles and an interception in addition to his four touchdowns with 114 yards on nine receptions.
Senior Dontae Weatherly led all Viking defenders with 13 tackles, while fellow senior Jimmy Lord adding 10 of his own.
With three games remaining on the schedule, Broadwater will look to rebound Saturday, Oct. 17 on the road at 2 p.m. against winless Portsmouth Christian (0-6).

I had a great experience with Air 1 moving and storage Services. The staff was very helpful and accommodating via Yelp messaging. The crew came right on time, wrapped up our furniture and worked very hard and fast. Highly Recommended.

Poland Political System
According to the constitution adopted in 1997, short for PL by Abbreviationfinder, Poland is a parliamentary democracy where power is shared between legislative, executive and judicial bodies.
The legislative power is held by the lower house of Parliament (the Sejm), whose 460 members are elected in general, proportional elections every four years. The same term applies to the 100 members of the upper chamber (Senate) who are elected in general election. The voting age is 18 years.
Countryaah: Total population and chart of Poland for years of 2020, 2021, 2022, 2023 and 2024. Also covers population density, birth rate, death rate and population growth rates.
Since 1993, parties must receive at least five percent of the vote in order to take up the seat, but exceptions are made for parties representing minority groups. For partial alliances, the requirement is eight percent. As a result, only four to five lots (if you count off jumpers and breakers) are represented in the sejm.
The President is elected directly by the people for a term of five years and can sit for a maximum of two terms of office. The president's powers include proposing a prime minister (head of government), to be approved by and responsible for the Sejm. Thus, usually the representative of the largest party in the Sejm becomes prime minister. It is they who have the real power in the country. The president has overall responsibility for foreign and defense policy, but in reality the influence of the head of state is limited. The president's most important instrument of power is the possibility of vetoing bills. However, the veto can be circumvented if 60 percent of MPs vote to repeal it. The President further appoints ambassadors, judges and generals (on the proposal of the respective Minister of Trade and Industry).
Poland is divided into 16 counties, vojvodship (województwo), with a head of government appointed by the government, vojvod (wojewoda), at the head. These include 314 rural or regional districts (powiaty ziemskie), 65 cities with district status (powiaty grodzkie) and 2,489 municipalities (gminy). At all three levels of administration, there are elected parliaments who appoint governing bodies.
The party system has its background in the social structure that existed during the communist era, when almost all of them were government employees. In the transition from communist rule to democracy, Solidarity, with the rise of the trade union movement, had a key role (see Modern history) and the political parties could only with some difficulty be divided into the usual left-right scale. But in recent years, the big divide in politics has been between two parties that were registered just after the turn of the millennium: Law and Justice (Prawo in Sprawiedliwość, PiS) that has been ruling since 2015, and the Citizenship Platform (Platforma Obywatelska, PO).
PO is more liberal and European-friendly than PiS and has a left wing, for example, for free abortion. PiS is more nationalist, EU-skeptical and pronounced value conservative, for example strongly against same-sex marriage. PiS has criticized the PO for conducting an overly German and Russian-friendly policy in office until 2015. In economic matters, PiS calls itself "more social", which mainly means that they are for a stronger state involvement in the economy. In the family policy and abortion issue, PiS adheres to the message of the Catholic Church and opposes PO's more liberal attitude.
Both camps have hosted extremist groups that can be described as fundamentalist – strongly anti-clerical (opponents of ecclesiastical influence) or strongly religious. Both of these phalanges have tried to form outbreak parties: The anti-clerical Palikot movement (Ruch Palikota) had success in the 2011 election but was split in 2013. The successor Your movement (Twój Ruch) did not succeed in entering the Sejm 2015. The strong Catholic outbreak party Solidarity Poland (Solidarna Polska, SP) was founded in 2012 and wanted to sharpen the law that basically already banned abortion. SP wanted to remove the exception in the law that allows abortion if the child will be severely disabled. Two other exceptions – if the mother's life is in danger and if the pregnancy is the result of rape or incest – would remain. The SP did not receive its own mandate in the seism 2015, but acts in alliance with Law and Justice, as well as another smaller party: Agreement (Porozumienie Jarosława Gowina, PJG).
The Polish Peasant Party (Polskie Stronnictwo Ludowe, PSL) was a member of the government together with the PO until 2015 and then went into opposition. It is an interest party for the country's many private farmers. Between 2001 and 2003, the PSL co-operated with the Democratic Left Alliance (Sojusz Lewicy Demokratycznej, SLD). Both PSL and SLD have their background in the former Communist Party. The SLD is still dominated by former communists and before the democratization in 1989, the PSL was a support party for the communists.
In connection with the 2019 elections, party supply began to be a bit more similar to what it looks like in many other countries: PiS is now leading a strong right alliance, the United Right Coalition (Koalicja Zjednoczonej Prawicy). In the center there is a liberal block around PO and the left has been gathered in an alliance with several parties, among them SLD.
SLD, along with other small parties in 2015, had formed the United Left Alliance (Zjednoczona Lewica, ZL), but failed to reach Parliament. An extended alliance, the Left (Lewica), is now gathering more parties, and has reached its peak. SLD collaborates here with the Left together (Lewica Racem), the Polish Socialist Party (PPS) and the Labor Union (Unia Pracy). Also included are the Wios(Spring), newly formed by Robert Biedroń, former mayor of Słupsk, who wants, among other things, equal pay for women and men, defend the right to abortion, separate the church from the state, and make marriage between people of the same sex legal. In addition, the party aims to close coal mines as Poland releases large amounts of greenhouse gases.
In 2015, two completely newly formed parties entered parliament: right-wing populist Kukiz'15, led by a well-known rock singer, and market liberal Moderna (Nowoczesna). Both remain, but in different alliances.
In response to the PiS government's controversial policy (see Current Policy and Calendar), a number of opposition parties in 2016 formed an alliance with the goal of protecting the rule of law. The coalition which was named Freedom, Equality and Democracy included a number of center and left parties such as Moderna, PSL and SLD. Since then, SLD has separated to the left, and in 2019 PSL put up with Kukiz'15. There remains a clearer middle block with the Citizens' Platform (PO) and liberal Moderna at its core, which in July 2019, before the parliamentary elections, received grants from the Greens. Secular Polish initiatives are also part of the Alliance called the Citizens Coalition, Koalicja Obywatelska (KO).
The Confederation of Freedom and Independence (Confederacja Wolność in Niepodległość), is an alliance of several parties standing far to the right. One of the most famous is the National Movement (Ruch narodowy). The collection contains, among other things, royal lists.
The German minority (Mniejszość Niemiecka, MN) is a party that protects the interests of the German minority. With the support of rules for minority protection, the party could have been represented in the Sejm with a mandate.
Growing turnout
Political disdain is widespread in Poland, which is considered to be a major reason for low voter turnout (52 percent in the 1993 elections, 49 percent in 1997, 46 percent in 2001, 41 percent in 2005, 54 percent in 2007, 49 percent in 2011 and 51 percent in 2015). In the 2004 European Parliament elections, just over 20 percent voted, while fewer than 25 percent of voters voted in the European Parliament elections in both 2009 and 2014. A significant change occurred in 2019, when, among other former presidents, the imminent parliamentary election marked a fate election: participation rose to 62 percent.
The previous lack of political involvement may have been partly because the parties were relatively new, with weak organizations.

Populist parties enter the government
Prime Minister Jarosław Kaczyński joins two populist parties in the government: the right-wing Nationalist Party of Polish Families (LPR), whose leader Roman Giertych becomes Deputy Prime Minister and Education Minister, and the Self-Defense Party, which has its electoral support among peasants and whose leader becomes Deputy Prime Minister Andrzej and Minister of Agriculture.
Conservative rolling victor
The Party of Law and Justice (PiS) under the twin brothers Jarosław and Lech Kaczyński wins the election to the sejman (parliament's lower house) with a small margin and low turnout. Jarosław Kaczyński gets the assignment to form government. Lech Kaczyński wins the presidential election two weeks later.

Is Trump Destined for a Second Impeachment?
January 10, 2021 Topic: Politics Region: The Americas Blog Brand: The Reboot Tags: Donald TrumpImpeachmentStorming Of The CapitolConstitution25th Amendment
Can either of those things be done? Both? How might the Constitution's presidential defenestration provisions work here?
by Gene Healy
We started the week with an impeachment debate that looked like a rewarmed version of the one we had last year. "Read the transcript!": when President Donald Trump got on the phone Saturday to lean on Georgia election officials, was it another "perfect call" or a second, sordid shakedown attempt?
By yesterday afternoon we were in entirely new territory: a violent mob storming and trashing the Capitol, four dead, guns and explosives seized, Congress evacuated, Vice President Mike Pence fleeing a mob inspired by the president's tweets. "We will never concede," Trump fumed at the pre‐riot rally, "you don't concede when there's theft involved. Our country has had enough. We're not going to take it any more.… if you don't fight like hell, you're not going to have a country any more." Howard Beale only asked people to yell out of their windows, and he didn't have nuclear weapons.
As of Wednesday night there were at least 32 House Democrats publicly calling for a second impeachment. Though both houses are supposedly done working until after inauguration, an article of impeachment has already been drafted for circulation. And today, the incoming Senate Majority Leader called on Pence and the Cabinet to trigger the 25th Amendment and remove Trump from power.
Can either of those things be done? Both? How might the Constitution's presidential defenestration provisions work here? Let's take a look.
First, impeachment: the article of impeachment being circulated now charges Trump with making "statements that encouraged—and foreseeably resulted in—imminent lawless action at the Capitol." Is incitement to riot an impeachable offense? Yes: it's not even a hard question.
"High Crimes and Misdemeanors" is a broad term designed to reach serious misconduct that demonstrates unfitness for high office: not just criminality or abuse of official power but, as the Nixon‐era House Judiciary Committee report on "Constitutional Grounds for Presidential Impeachment" put it, conduct "grossly incompatible with the proper function and purpose of the office."
In fact, the first impeachment case to result in conviction and removal from office, Judge John Pickering (1803) involved a federal judge whose main offense was showing up to work drunk and behaving in a "profane and indecent manner … degrading to the honor of the United States." The 10th article of impeachment against President Andrew Johnson, approved by the House in 1868, charged the president with "a high misdemeanor in office" based on a series of "intemperate, inflammatory, and scandalous harangues" he'd delivered in an 1866 speaking tour. And Johnson didn't incite a riot.
Impeachment is not a criminal process. You don't have to prove all the elements of a federal criminal statute or pass the Supreme Court's Brandenburg test for incitement. And, despite what the president's lawyers argued the last time around, nothing in the Constitution requires extensive hearings. Even at this late date, the House could mount a fast‐track impeachment.
Could a successful impeachment bar Trump from ever holding the presidency again? Article I, section 3 of the Constitution provides for an additional punishment beyond removal: "disqualification to hold and enjoy any Office of honor, Trust or Profit under the United States." It's only been invoked three times, all against federal judges.
There's a question, however, of whether the presidency is an "Office of honor, Trust or Profit under the United States." The legal scholar Seth Barrett Tillman has argued that "Office… under the United States" is a term of art like "Office under the Crown" in British law: it covers appointed officials, not elected ones. In that reading, Donald Trump could be barred from serving as a federal judge, or Secretary of State—but not a second shot at the presidency.
It seems to me, however, that this is more likely to remain an academic question than get resolved in the courts. The Senate only gets to a disqualification vote after 2/3s of members present vote to convict. If everything's changed and Trump has become so toxic that 17+ Republicans are going to vote to convict, it's hard to imagine he'd bounce back hard enough to become the GOP nominee in 2024. (Though I guess weirder things have happened—are happening—right now).
What about the 25th Amendment, section 4 of which allows the Vice President to take the reins if he and a majority of the cabinet notify Congress "that the President is unable to discharge the powers and duties of his office"? I've argued before that the so‐called "25th amendment solution" was a bad idea on legal and practical grounds. The drafters of the amendment deliberately made it harder than impeachment, which only requires a supermajority of the Senate for removal. In normal circumstances—if you can use that phrase in this context—unless you get 2/3s of both houses of Congress to ratify the switch, triggering section 4 just puts the president in a temporary time out. It wasn't designed to be an eject button for bad presidents, but for incapacitated ones. People aren't worried that Trump's literally "unable to discharge the powers and duties of his office"; they're worried he has such bad judgment and low character that he's going to do something incredibly destructive with those powers.
The main advantage the amendment offers over impeachment is speed: if Pence were willing and had enough of the Cabinet lined up, he could take over in a matter of minutes. What's more, this late in the game, the clock would run out before Congress had to vote; triggering section 4 would effectively end the Trump presidency.
Back in 2017, I wrote about the kind of nightmare scenario where the "25th Amendment solution" makes the most sense:
If the president were to order an unprovoked nuclear first strike, it's possible that the secretary of defense could, instead of transmitting the launch order, get on the phone with the veep instead. They could then decide to trigger section 4, putting the president into a "time‐out" until Congress votes. And Congress, presumably, would go into that vote knowing that, unless they ratify the switch, they're voting for nuclear war.
I really hope that scenario is nowhere near reality right now. Still, as the Nixon experience showed, the final days of a disgraced presidency are dangerous times. At a White House meeting two weeks ago, this president apparently raised the issue of an election "rerun" under martial law.
How sure are we that we've reached Peak Trump? Was yesterday as bad as it gets? Just how much should we be willing to stake on that proposition?

Getting Ready to Combat With Data Breach: Kal, Aaj Aur Kal
The onset of digitalization by the proliferation of internet has permitted people to explore the cyber-space for meeting various requirements of day to day life. The amount of data that is shared across internet today is beyond imagination. From ordering a cab to ordering food to booking tickets for travel to shopping to communicating with friends to making new relationships everything can happen with just a tap of finger and sharing of information.
However, one storm that is threatening the digital space is data breach. The World Economic Forum 2019 global risk report[1] has named cyber-attacks and data breaches as the fourth and fifth most serious risks facing the world today. It's the second year in a row in which these threats have been present in the top five list of risks.[2] Past few years can easily be considered as the year of data breaches as many global websites complained of data breach. In the era of digitization data breach is happening at such a level, that keeping a count of such instances is almost impossible. Therefore, it is important to know the current safeguards against data breach and also what does future holds to fill in the gaps of current safeguards.
Current Status of Data Protection: In Case of Data Breach
Section 43 A of The Information Technology Act, 2008, inserted vide Information Technology Amendment Act, 2008, is the current recourse we have in case of a data breach.
Currently, this is the only section that deals with Data Protection in detail. The Section provides for imposition of liability on a body corporate as further defined in the Section, who is involved in dealing with sensitive personal data, in case there is a breach of the same due to lack of implementation of preventive measure on its behalf. A maximum liability of Rs. 5 Crore has been mentioned in the Section.
The Future of Data Protection: Steps to be Taken to Deal with Data Breach under Draft Personal Data Protection Bill, 2019
With the intent of being a jurisdiction having a comprehensive Data Protection Law to dedicatedly deal with the instances of data breach, the Draft Personal Data Protection Bill, 2018 was released in 2018.
In case of a data breach the first question that comes to mind is that, who will be accountable for such a breach. The answer to this question has been glimpsed in Section 11 of the Draft Personal Data Protection Bill, 2018 (hereinafter referred to as "the Bill"), the Section provides,
"11. Accountability. —
The data fiduciary shall be responsible for complying with all obligations set out in this Act in respect of any processing undertaken by it or on its behalf.
The data fiduciary should be able to demonstrate that any processing undertaken by it or on its behalf is in accordance with the provisions of this Act."
Thus, if there is any contravention to the provisions of this Bill, then the Data Fiduciary will be held liable. The duties corresponding to this have been mentioned throughout the various provisions of the Bill, however Section 31 (1) provides that it will be the duty of the Data Fiduciary to establish safeguard measures to for:
use of methods such as de-identification and encryption;
steps necessary to protect the integrity of personal data; and
steps necessary to prevent misuse, unauthorized access to, modification, disclosure or destruction of personal data.
Section 32 of the Draft Personal Data Protection Bill, 2018 provides the steps that would be mandatory for the Data Fiduciary and the Data Processors to take, in case a data breach takes place. A closer study of the Section throws light on the fact that a great duty will be imposed upon the Data Fiduciary, their liability of the duty can be basically divided into three folds,
First and foremost duty of the Data Fiduciary, in case of a personal data breach, is to inform the Authority as specified in the Bill, this notification to the Authority must contain the nature of the data breach, number of Data Principals affected, possible consequences of the breach and necessary remedial measures to be taken. This notification should be made to the Authority as soon as possible, however in the case where it is not practicable to provide the information instantly, such information should be furnished to the Authority after the compilation is complete and without any unnecessary delay.
The second duty that has been imposed upon the Data Fiduciary is that, they must inform the Data Principals of the data breach, if the same has been ordered by the Authority after their assessment of the breach.
The third fold of their duty is to take remedial measure that need to be implemented on their behalf to mitigate the damages that have occurred due to the data breach, and to take measure to prevent the same from happening in the future.
Suggestive Measure that can be Employed by Companies in Case of Data Breach
Some measure that can be taken by a company in case a data breach occurs are as follows:
The first and foremost step that should be taken is to determine the extent of the data breach. This would entail an introspective study of the data of the firm to enlist what all data has been stolen, what was the nature of this data and how sensitive was the information that was stolen.
The company must inform the relevant authorities as soon as practicable about the said breach, a delay in reporting the breach can be very injurious to the company and may entail an increased liability.
In cases where it is applicable or required, the affected persons, i.e., the people whose data has been breached must also be informed.
In case the company stores information about foreign citizens, it is crucial to consider the domestic laws of those citizens if their data has been breached.
The next to be taken by the company should be to conduct a security audit, to flush out what was the cause of such a security breach, and what are the lacks in the current security regime of the company which have facilitated such an attack, this would also include identifying and implementing any remedial measure that need to be taken by the company to reduce the damage.
The final step should be updating the security of the company, to address all the bugs and to have a framework that ensure such an attack doesn't happen again. It should be noted that the security framework of a company should be regularly monitored and updated so as to prevent any breaches.
Case in point: Facebook data breach
Introduction Recently a data breach that left the whole globe in shock was the Facebook data breach. It was estimated that about 50 Million accounts were affected by the said breach. This was a first of its kind attack in the 14 years history of Facebook, where the attackers were able to have access to the complete accounts of the users, they could see everything that was present in the accounts of the user, including all the third party applications that were linked to Facebook, such as Instagram. Spotify, Tinder, etc. However, it has not been ascertained whether the attackers did or did not have access to the personal messages of the users.
Series of events
The data breach of Facebook occurred when the "View as" feature of the Facebook, which enables a user to see this profile as it would appear to another user viewing it, was hijacked. The upload video option on Facebook that was introduced to enable easy uploading of birthday videos was converted to "view as" option. When this view as option was clicked, it generated an access token, which was used to gain access to the accounts of the users.
As soon as this bug was detected, steps were taken by Facebook, but till then it was too late. Around 90 million people were logged out of their accounts in order to mitigate the damage. 50 million were the ones who were affected and 40 million were the ones who were anticipated to be affected.
The hackers that were involved in the said data breach have not yet been identified.
The widespread network of Facebook has attracted liability from various jurisdiction. A probe has been initiated by the European Union Authorities, into the said data breach. It is being anticipated that there is a possibility that Facebook might be face a fine of 1.63 Billion Euros.
[3]Case in point: Instagram Data Leak
Nearly 49 Million Instagram accounts were affected by a data leak that took place in 2019, a lot of Instagram influencers, such as food bloggers, lifestyle bloggers were affected by the same. Various information of the users such as their biodata, profile picture, number of followers, location by city and country, contact information such as e-mail i.ds and phone numbers, were leaked. The said information was available on Amazon Web Service, without any passwords.
The investigation led to a Mumbai based company called Chtrbox, which provides the information as to how much a person should be paid to advertise on their Instagram page, based on their number of followers, engagement, reach, likes and the shares they have. Subsequent to these events, Chtrbox took their database offline.
Investigation is still being conducted on the said data leak, as many users who had never been in contact with Chatterbox also alleged that their data had been leaked.

Forgive my sporadic postings of late, it's been a hectic time, and deadlines loom. This week I'll be away for three full days on school visits. Always a positive experience that definitely helps keep the wolf from the door, but it takes me away from my desk job.
Oh yes! Congratulations to Rebecca Stead, winner of the Newbery Medal for When You Reach Me.
This had been the consensus pick of the BlogHive for the past six months, so no surprises there. I don't read many children's books a year, but I read and enjoyed this one, and I'm glad to say that I have a signed hardcover copy on my bookshelves. This puts me on a hot streak, because last year the same was true of The Graveyard. So if you want to win a Newbery, you need me to read your book.
Also: I've been neglecting my fan mail of late. So let's see if I can begin to rectify that.
We have a few questions for you: How do you publish a book? How long does it take to write a book? Do you always have 12 chapters in your books?
Thank you for writing such great books. We look forward to hearing from you!
Thanks for those ideas. As a matter of policy, I'd definitely want to read ANY book about a Moon Monkey — though I'm not sure exactly how to write one. However, the Living Lollipop sounds gross and sticky. I always say the same thing in these situations: I encourage you to keep these ideas for yourself. Of course, that's the thing with ideas; they aren't exactly to be kept, like toy chihuahuas in little purses.
Ideas are like doors: they need to be opened, and the way to do that is to think and write in a spirit of exploration. What happens when you open that door? For example, pick one of those ideas and work on it. Feel free to use Jigsaw or Mila as your characters, or make up your own. Ask yourself: How does it feel to get a horrible haircut? What would it look like? How would the kids in school react? What might a nice friend say? What about someone who wasn't so nice? Think about it, puzzle over it, and perhaps try to write one small scene. All the while staying alert for new ideas, and new doors, you might encounter along the way.
I usually have two months to write a Jigsaw Jones book. Once I have the idea for a plot — the basic story in my mind — I can write it fairly quickly (in a matter of weeks). But coming up with that idea can often take a long, unhappy time. The Jigsaw Jones books range from 10-13 chapters, and usually come in at around 6,000 words each.
About "publishing," I think writers your age should self-publish. I'm a big believer in DIY — Do It Yourself. Write your own stories, add illustrations if you wish, make extra copies, and sell your stories to friends, neighbors, and family (Grandma will buy one every time, guaranteed).
Make your own books. It's fun. And it's exactly how I started.
Thanks for writing. Happy Martin Luther King Day!

Renowned Leadership Expert | Author of Start With Why and The Infinite Game
Simon Sinek is an unshakable optimist. He believes in a bright future and our ability to build it together. Described as "a visionary thinker with a rare intellect," Sinek teaches leaders and organizations how to inspire people, with a bold goal to help build a world in which the vast majority of people go home every day feeling inspired, safe, and fulfilled by their work.
A trained ethnographer, Sinek is fascinated by the people and organizations that make the greatest and longest lasting impact in the world. Over the years, he has discovered some remarkable patterns about how they think, act, and communicate, and the environments in which people operate at their natural best. He has devoted his life to sharing his thinking in order to help other leaders and organizations inspire action.
Sinek may be best known for popularizing the concept of "Why" in his first Ted Talk in 2009. It rose to become the second most watched TED Talk of all time, and remains in the top five today with nearly 50 million views. His interview on millennials in the workplace broke the internet in 2016, garnering over 80 million views in a week. It has now been viewed hundreds of millions of times, leading to Sinek being YouTube's fifth most searched term in 2017.
An acclaimed author, Sinek has written five books, including the global bestseller, Start With Why; and the New York Times and Wall Street Journal bestsellers Leaders Eat Last and Together is Better. He is also the author of Find Your Why: A Practical Guide to Discovering Purpose for You and Your Team, and his most recent book, The Infinite Game, also a New York Times and Wall Street Journal bestseller.
Sinek's unconventional and innovative views on business and leadership have attracted international attention. From the airline industry to the entertainment industry, from finance to fashion, from big business to entrepreneurs and police forces, Sinek has been invited to meet with a broad array of leaders and organizations in nearly every industry. He has also had the honour of sharing his ideas with multiple agencies of the US government as well as senior leaders in the United States Air Force, Marine Corps, Navy, Army, and Coast Guard.
In addition, Sinek is an adjunct staff member of the RAND Corporation, one of the most highly regarded think tanks in the world. He is also active in the arts and in the not-for-profit world (though he prefers to call it the for-impact world).

The Infinite Game
How can we win a game that has no end?
The simple answer is we can't. However, that's exactly what so many companies are trying to do. The problem is, there is no such thing as "winning business."
In a game with no finish line and no agreed upon rules or metrics it is impossible to "be number one," "be the best" or "beat our competition." In this Infinite Game, there is only ahead and behind. Leaders of organizations must understand the rules of the Infinite Game. Failure to do so dramatically increases the chance that they will set themselves on a path that eventually drains them of the will and resources to play at all. Eventually they will drop out of the game and no one will care. Their competition will just keep playing without them.
In his talk, Simon explores how understanding the rules of the Infinite Game is essential if any leader wants to stay ahead and outlast any competitor…forever.

Why University
So many organizations and individuals are obsessed with winning. But how do you win a game that never really ends? Business is infinite — there's ultimately no such thing as "winning" because there's always a new set of challenges.
Simon Sinek's Start With Why and Leaders Eat Last have helped millions of readers see the hidden rules that govern our behavior. Now, The Infinite Game challenges us to rethink our perspective with a deceptively simple question: How do you stay ahead in a game with no end? Through a wide range of examples, Sinek explores how infinite players in any field can exhaust their competitors, stay ahead for the long run, and create strong organizations, built to weather nearly any storm. Great leaders instinctively play the infinite game; now the rest of us can understand how they do it.
Simon Sinek's mission is to help people wake up every day inspired to go to work and return home every night fulfilled by their work. His first book, Start With Why, offered the essential starting point, explaining the power of focusing on WHY we do what we do, before getting into the details of WHAT and HOW.
Now, Sinek is back to reveal the next step in creating happier and healthier organizations. He helps us understand, in simple terms, the biology of trust and cooperation and why they're essential to our success and fulfillment. Organizations that create environments in which trust and cooperation thrive vastly out perform their competition. And, not coincidentally, their employees love working there.
As he did in Start With Why, Sinek illustrates his points with fascinating true stories from many fields. He implores us to act sooner rather than later, because our stressful jobs are literally killing us. And he offers surprisingly simple steps for building a truly human organization.
Start With Why
Start With Why offers an unconventional perspective that explains WHY some people and organizations are more innovative, more profitable, command greater loyalties from customers and employees alike and, most importantly, are able to repeat their success over and over. Because it's all based on how people think and act, this unique view of the world has application in big business and small business, in politics and non-profit. Though some people have a natural ability to start with WHY, Simon Sinek offers compelling evidence that, with a little discipline, anyone can learn how to do it.

A quick note to say thank you for a powerful session yesterday. I feel like you gave me a language for something that I have been exploring and wrestling with for a long time as a marketer here – so thank you for the personal impact you have had on me. I also got incredible feedback from many participants about how inspired they are – even the video staff and bartender commented to me how powerful the session was! There seems to be a hunger for Why everywhere.
Thank you for taking the time to enlighten the Air Force's newest senior leaders. Your candid perspective and clear insight will foster their success for many years and made this year's program an outstanding success. The feedback we received from the group was unanimous—having you there was invaluable and memorable for each of them. Please accept my sincere appreciation for your contribution to this important forum.
General Norton A. Schwartz, Chief of Staff United States Air Force
Simon was one of the most impactful speakers at Birthing of Giants. After each of his 2 sessions, there was a bigger buzz than almost any other speaker over 7 years (and the speaker list is always incredible).
Birthing of Giants
Your presentations to our audience at the Sales Summit was extraordinarily well received. Your insights touched a nerve here and left an indelible mark on those who were present. The evaluations were off the chart. Congratulations on a job well done.
As you took the stage, all were expecting the usual motivational message that historically closes all IOCs. Instead, your message was quite profound in its truth and clarity, presented in a manner that totally captivated our audience. The evaluations and feedback we received made it clear that many will continue to discuss and learn from what you shared long after we all returned home. Your message resonated with our conference delegates at a deeper level, which truly will effect significant change. It's difficult to find the appropriate words to thank you for a presentation of such strength, clarity and value. Its applicability to all aspects of our lives, coupled with your stellar delivery, resulted in a compelling and unforgettable presentation that touched each of us deeply.
Hawaii Medical Service Association
We had the best week with Simon and Monique, and only wish they lived closer so we could do more work together. Simon's impact here was profound, and our audiences have flooded us with positive feedback. I'd go so far as to say that he's the best speaker we've ever engaged. His knowledge and presentations were truly world class, but what was more impressive was his warmth, sincerity and sense of humour – these qualities are hard to find in someone of his calibre and it made our roles last week a true pleasure.
Business Chicks
Simon's presentation was fantastic. He had the attendees full attention, and during the Q&A there was no shortage of interaction. The attendees felt is was one of the best presentations they have been part of and were very appreciative that Simon would take time out of his schedule to present at an Apple event.
Sitting with a group of staff at headquarters, the room was so quiet you could hear a pin drop as people were intently listening, so pleased with Simon's candid and authentic thought leadership. Simon patiently and caringly dealt with the diverse questions from our Vistage International community via webinar this morning. His wisdom and passion for innovation were easily apparent, as he adeptly glided into deep thought – regardless what was asked of him – and translated his responses into applications for us, for our business owners and CEOs, for our staffs and our Chairs who were eager to hear from the "Why" expert and author with the Golden Circle. He certainly stirred great interest in seeing him live in Dallas at the International Conference in January. I wrote four pages of notes, leaving with a quote from Simon that I believe we should incorporate in our theme, ThinkBIG. My big takeaway was this question: what can we do in our own community to inspire others to do what inspires them most? From that, according to Simon, springs innovation. Sitting next to our Chief Human Resources Officer, I noticed how moved he was when Simon spoke about caring more for people than the bottom line. He described the three ingredients for moving the organization in the direction toward our aspirations – our forever vision. I felt that Simon Sinek had connected with us, a great match for our values of trust, caring, challenge and growth.
Thank you, Simon, for an inspiring morning with Vistage. The hour was a great investment of time.

I was chatting with Blake Perlingieri about Fakir and his impact on the body modification community; Blake is someone who very much embodies the spirit of Fakir's Modern Primitives and we're excited that he's going to be spending some time with Ari for a BSTA interview soon. With that in mind, to celebrate what would have been Fakir's 88th birthday, I thought this photo of the two of them, borrowed from Nomad's Instagram account, would be a nice way to remember him.
We tried to do a lot of cleaning up on this video that a friend of Blake's shot at the APP Conference in Las Vegas a few years back, but the sound just didn't want to cooperate. Still, it's worth checking out for those of us who want to soak up as much of our history as possible.
Enjoy, and happy birthday, Fakir.

Pirelli's exclusive supply deal with the British GT Championship enters its second round on the high-speed banked oval and twisty infield of Northamptonshire's Rockingham circuit on 30-31 April. Record-breaking lap times were set on the new P Zero rubber at the season's curtain-raiser at Brands Hatch, with Derek Johnston and Jonny Adam claiming victory and an early GT3 championship lead in their TF Sport Aston Martin Vantage GT3. Competition was fiercer, with Bentley, Lamborghini and BMW making it four different manufacturers in the top four in the race.
Driving Team Parker Racing's Bentley Continental GT3, GT newcomer Seb Morris set the fastest ever lap of Brands Hatch in a GT car in qualifying following his switch from the Pirelli-backed GP3 Series. Race versions of road-going supercars from premium manufacturers populate the GT3 and GT4 classes that make up the British GT field. Pirelli supplies the DHC tyre for GT3 and the DH for GT4, with the Cinturato WH wet tyre available for all if required.
Rockingham is characterised by its banked oval, a portion of which forms the pit straight and first corner of the 3.12-kilometre International Super Sportscar Circuit used by British GT. A heavy braking zone for the Deene hairpin leads the cars off the oval and onto the technical infield section.
In contrast to Brands Hatch, this is made up mostly of slow-to-medium-speed corners where tyres have to withstand continual braking and traction energy, although Turns 5, 6 and 7 put high lateral energy into the right-hand-side tyres. Through there and in Turn 1, which is banked up to seven degrees, the downforce of the GT3 cars will deliver the speed, but the rest of the lap demands good mechanical grip from the tyres. With little time for the tyres to rest, wear is expected to be fairly high.

Why Shouldn't Grandparents See Their Newborn Grandchild?
Some expectant parents say that they aren't taking hospital visitors. Others say that the grandparents won't be allowed to visit their newborn grandchild for the first few weeks or even months. Many grandparents are confused and hurt by these decisions. Why would parents do this to grandparents?
Grandparents must understand that these decisions aren't something that parents are doing "to" the grandparents. It's something that they are doing "for" the newborn and for themselves. They are creating a protected period for forming a family unit. This time period is sometimes referred to as a babymoon. Grandparents may not understand such decisions, but they should at least grant that the parents are acting out of the best of motives. In addition, if the grandparents avoid over-reacting, the new parents may change their minds, especially when they experience the realities of newborn care.
The mother may be recovering from the birth and may need lots of rest.
The mother may not want visitors when she is not looking at her best, as may be the case after childbirth.
The mother may desire privacy as she tries to establish breastfeeding.
The parents may not want an audience as they get used to handling and changing their newborn.
It's important to remember that new mothers are usually sent home after 48 hours. As recently as the 1970's, postpartum hospital stays averaged four days. In the 1950's, stays of one week to 10 days were standard. Modern mothers may need the entire hospital stay — of one or two days — for rest and recuperation.
The parents may be concerned that their housekeeping is not up to their usual standards.
The parents don't want the burden of having to offer food and drinks or otherwise entertain their guests.
Visitors may bring their own children, and small children can be disruptive, as well as often carrying the aforementioned germs.
Most grandparents grew up in a time period when it was accepted that grandmothers would be on the premises to help new mothers. New mothers would go to stay with a mother or mother-in-law. A grandmother would go to stay for a period of days or even weeks to help out.
It's important to remember that today's mothers live in a somewhat different world. For one thing, fathers are more likely to help out. Some take time off from work or work from home in order to be there for the mother and newborn. The lucky ones even get paid paternity leave.
Another factor is that most mothers have jobs and thus a limited amount of time to stay home with their newborn. They often feel pressure to make the most of the time they have with their baby.
New parents will think that they want to be alone with their baby, but change their minds when faced with the reality of caring for a newborn. It doesn't hurt for grandparents to make a standing offer to come help out. Sometimes parents who restricted visitors with a first child are completely fine with visitors for subsequent births, especially since there is an older sibling to be cared for.
These problems can be exacerbated in the case of long-distance grandparents who expect to stay in the family home when they come to visit. Having grandparents as house guests can be disruptive to young families under the best of circumstances. When the new parents are sleep-deprived and otherwise not at their best, the stage may be set for conflict. The grandparents might offer to stay in a motel. At the least, they should let the parents make the decisions about the length and timing of the visit.
Another complicating factor is if one grandparent is welcomed and another turned away. The most common scenario is that maternal grandparents have more access than paternal grandparents, but it can be just the opposite. In any case, the grandparent without access is certain to be jealous of the other grandparent, adding yet another kind of hurt to the mix.
Grandparents who do not agree with the decisions made by the new parents should remember that one of the main jobs of grandparents is respecting boundaries. As eager as grandparents may be to get acquainted with their newborn grandchild, they should understand that it is equally important to get off on the right foot with the new parents. Those who respect the new parents' decisions are likely to find their access to grandchildren expanded, while those who do not may find their access continues to be limited.
If you are lucky enough to have the chance to bond with your newborn grandchild, try not to overlook the needs of the parents. Bringing the mother a drink or snack is always appreciated. Good nourishment and hydration are important after the birth. Doing fetching and carrying duties for the new mother will also be much appreciated.
Helping out with housework is important, but it can be tricky. If you ask an overwhelmed parent what you should do to help out, you're simply giving the parent another thing to think about. It's best to do the things that you see that need doing, but be sure to use good judgment. I've known grandparents who unloaded the dishwasher but simply stacked everything on the counter because they didn't know where things go. That's not really helping!
Most grandparents will be dying to help with the baby, but again, defer to the parents' wishes. Some parents will be more than happy to hand off the baby for a while. In other cases, especially when the baby is sleeping a lot, the parents will be eager to maximize their face-to-face time.
Above all else, be patient with the new parents. Don't be quick to take offense. They are going through a lot of changes. What most new parents need most is reassurance that they are doing the right thing, and that is something that grandparents can provide. It doesn't cost a penny, but the payoffs can be enormous.

That wouldn't happen in my area! But I've seen it regularly in other parts of the country. It could be a local code requirement...check with your township and/or municipality.
I called the office of the electrical inspector for the county. Should have just done this to begin with. He said that there must be an outside disconnect at the meter and many builders are just putting the panel out there.
If I want to put the panel inside it's ok just still need the disconnect at the meter.
I would still make sure there's Lock-out/Tag-out holes on the switch outside, both to lock on and off. It would be too easy for a prankster, or worse to just throw the switch with no lock!
Seems like your local utility/inspectors might be lazy or just want convenience? I think here if they want to make sure the power's off, they just pull the meter out!
The external disconnect is so fireman can kill power to the house and be guaranteed that nothing is live when they start chopping through things while they're all wet.
I don't know if you can "lock out, tag out" the disconnect in a closed position. You'd need to check with the local fire department on that - they may have bolt cutters they carry specifically for such purposes.
Steve, when we built in 2001, the electrician put in two 200 amp panels inside the garage. On the outside is a double panel fixture where one meter is connected. It passed without so much as a blink of the eye. My shop has a 200 amp panel with the meter on the outside. In both cases there is NO outside disconnect, unless you call removing the meter a disconnect.
Also be aware, if you have garage door or even french door entries to your shop, the inspecting sphincters will make you install GFCI outlets just because they "like to see them." Grrrrr :mad: I had french/double doors at one entry to the shop, and had to install the GFCI outlets even though there is no water plumbing in the shop. I guess the thinking is that if you might possibly, with effort, get a car into the shop, it qualifies as a garage, and garages need GFCI. Grrrr.
My house has the main panel on the outside of the house...no biggie since I also have a house sub-panel and that one is inside the garage.
The only thing in the main panel is all my recent garage rewire, the A/C sub-panel, and the house sub-panel. All the houses in my neighborhood were done this way near as I can tell.

Part One: American players who returned to the NBA
Part Two: Players making significant jumps in our rankings
Part Three: European players coming off the list
Part Four, Americans Moving off the Rankings
DraftExpress Overseas Free Agent Rankings: Players 1-12
13 Gary Neal PG/SG
25 years old, 6' 4" 210lbs.
Now in his third season in Europe after an eventful NCAA career, few American guards are thriving as much as Gary Neal is in Italy right now. He leads the league in scoring at over 20 points per game, and is managing to do so in an extremely efficient manner (65% 2P, 37% 3P, 5 FTAs per game) despite shouldering an absolutely massive offensive load for retooling Benetton Treviso.
Neal operates as Benetton's main facilitator and is looking absolutely outstanding creating shots for himself and others on the pick and roll, being arguably the most complete offensive player in that league.
While no one will confuse him with Steve Nash anytime soon, he has improved his playmaking skills substantially while keeping his turnovers to a minimum. Neal is very effective off the dribble and possesses a terrific mid-range game, needing very little space to get his shot off thanks to his quick release and excellent body control, being equally dangerous coming off screens.
Fluid and highly versatile, yet not incredibly explosive, he gets the rim nicely and finishes well around the basket, often opting to dish the ball off to an open teammate cutting to the rim or spotting up if things are looking overly congested in the painted area.
While obviously no NBA team will be giving him the type of Brandon Roy-esqe offensive freedom he's enjoying in Benetton at the moment, it's legitimate to wonder whether he has the talent to translate his very intriguing game back to this side of the ocean. "I'm happy in Europe," Neal has said in the past, "but of course I'd like to play in the NBA because it's in the United States where it's easier on the family."
The main thing he must work on is his defense, though, as he lacks great size or length and doesn't always appear to be putting in the best effort on this end of the floor, particularly fighting through screens and such, although he is capable of making plays from time to time thanks to his quick feet and solid anticipation skills.
As far as we can tell, Neal has never participated in any NBA summer leagues (even after leading the Turkish league in scoring at 26.5 ppg as a rookie) and was not invited to the NBA pre-draft camp either following his senior year.
Is it time to amend these wrongs and give him a longer look this summer? We absolutely think so. It seems like Neal is open to that too.
"He's game for anything," his agent David Bauman told us via email. "He'd love to be in NBA, but he won't do it if it means a big financial loss."
"The key for Gary is he sees basketball as his profession. If he can make a good living in the NBA, he would love to go. But he won't be like many of these players today who will claw and fight in the summer league, turn down good money overseas, just to try to make a roster in October."
"He has come a long way since Towson State and being undrafted. His first job was for $55,000 in a small team in Turkey. He did so well that after 4 months, he was 'traded' to FC Barcelona for big money. He's been blossoming in Treviso for the past two seasons. He is the perfect player for Europe and has adjusted well."
"Gary is a free agent after this season, so everything is possible."
"I remember during Gary's NBA workouts guys like Leo Papile of the Celtics and Tony Ronzone of the Pistons telling me Gary is 'instant offense' for a second unit, aka Flip Murray."
"Having said that, if the right situation presented itself to Gary for the NBA, we're all ears. Otherwise, he knows he will have a long and lucrative career in Europe (similar to the trajectory of our client J.R. Holden and others...)"
14 Ibrahim Jaaber PG
Lottomatica Roma
Jaaber was covered in depth in an article two weeks ago, which can be found here.
15 Novica Velickovic PF
Since going undrafted in 2008, all Novica Velickovic has done is develop into one of the most promising young forwards in European basketball, first as the leader of overachieving Partizan (who shockingly made the Euroleague quarterfinals) and now as a key cog in Ettore Messina's rotation with Real Madrid.
Velickovic is not the prototype of what the NBA typically looks for at the forward position, as he's a below average athlete who doesn't possess an extraordinary skill level. What he lacks in pure talent he more than makes up for with his smarts, fundamentals and toughness, though, being the all-around glue-guy type that does a little bit of everything out on the floor.
Velickovic is very effective with his back to the basket, showing nice footwork and touch to compliment his aggressiveness and pure grit inside the paint. He can attack his matchup off the dribble a bit, and while he's not what you would call a pure shooter, is capable of spacing the floor and making shots from beyond the arc when called upon.
Velickovic is an extremely efficient offensive player who executes offensively, crashes the boards hard and plays excellent defense, despite not possessing great length or lateral quickness. He reads his matchups well and does a good job of getting his opponent to settle for tough shots, and is not afraid to throw his (still developing) body around in the paint. While Real Madrid likes to use him at the small forward position from time to time in big lineups, there are some question marks about whether he'd be able to do the same in the NBA.
Having signed a three year contract this past summer after Real Madrid paid a big buyout to Partizan, Velickovic probably isn't going anywhere anytime soon. Another few seasons in top-level Europe surely won't hurt him, though, and if he can find a way to become a real knockdown shooter in the near future, the NBA could be an interesting option for him down the road.
16 Qyntel Woods SF
Asseco Prokom
Woods appears to be slowly finding a home for himself in Poland with Euroleague team based Prokom Trefl. He's an absolute stat-stuffing monster in Europe at the power forward position, putting up huge scoring numbers to go along with impressive rebounding and assists.
With his terrific size, length and athleticism, coupled with the success that many combo forwards in the NBA are enjoying these days, Woods should be ranked much higher than he is on this list. The problem is that he may have burned too many bridges with his off the court antics, which will likely cause some teams to shy away from considering bringing him on board. With that said, he may be ready for a second chance at this point, and on a non-guaranteed contract could end up making some NBA GM look very smart if he's ready to put his past behind him.
17 Travis Watson PF
Watson has never gotten much attention from the NBA, which is a bit surprising considering his physical tools and the way he's produced in the Euroleague over the past few years. He's again leading the Euroleague in rebounding this season, averaging just a hair under 15-boards per-40 minutes pace adjusted, and while he's doing it for a bad team, he's obviously a guy that at the very least deserves an extended look.
Watson fits the mold of your undersized bruiser who likes to mix it up inside and finds a way to get the job done. He has a wide body to go along with a great wingspan, excellent hands and solid athleticism, and while he can look a bit lazy at times getting up and down the floor and competing defensively, you can't argue with the production he brings to the table, as he's also an excellent finisher around the basket.
He's a tough guy who is not afraid to stick his nose in on the offensive glass, and it's possible that in the right role with the added motivation that should come with playing in the NBA, he could be a valuable contributor at the 4/5 spots coming off the bench. He's one of the rare big men on this list who isn't making much more than the NBA minimum, so it's possible that an offer of that nature could be enough to get the job done.
18 Devin Green SG
Olympia Larissa
Not many players can claim to have had as unlikely a career as Devin Green has over the past few years. A last minute invite to the Portsmouth Invitational tournament back in 2005—likely more due to the fact that he went to school down the street at Hampton (of the anonymous MEAC conference, where he played mostly power forward) than because of any real NBA interest—Green shockingly made the Lakers roster the following year and managed to stick all season long.
He spent the next few years alternating between thoroughly dominating the D-League, toiling in NBA summer leagues and training camps, and bouncing around places like Germany, Italy, Belgium and the Ukraine, never really sticking around in one place for very long and likely missing out on establishing himself as a legit NBA player in the process.
Green has regardless looked like an interesting prospect pretty much every time we had a chance to fully evaluate him, as he possesses terrific versatility to go along with a very NBA friendly profile with his excellent physical tools. He can create his own shot effectively, defend multiple positions, make plays for others, and make shots from the perimeter at a good enough rate to wonder why he hasn't gotten another chance.
He's playing in mid-level Greece this season and is clearly one of the better American players in that very competitive league, again making you ponder whether he can't play at a much higher level. He has a reputation for being overly unselfish at times, but is still young and talented enough to get yet another look this upcoming summer, if he hasn't already tired of waiting for the NBA that is.
19 Chris Warren (Bilbao) SG/SF
Bizkaia Bilbao
A very interesting story in his own right that we covered in-depth last year, Warren is the kind of abnormally late-blooming American player you tend to find at times in the European ranks.
He has NBA size, bulk and athleticism, and has shown that he can defend his position, create offense and put the ball in the net at the highest levels of European basketball. That alone should be enough to garner some looks from teams as a potential minimum salary candidate. There is not much to say about the way he's played this season thus far after moving from Avellino in Italy to Bilbao in Spain, as he missed six weeks with an injury and only recently returned to action. A strong season in the ACB may be just what he needs to get him over the hump, especially if he can dispel some of the question marks about his game, particularly his shot-selection and pedestrian shooting percentages.
20 Stephane Lasme PF
Coming off a phenomenal rookie European season with overachieving Partizan Belgrade, Lasme is settling into a smaller role on a bigger team in Maccabi Tel Aviv. He continues to be an absolute statistical monster on defense, collecting a ridiculous 6 blocks and steals combined per game per-40 minutes adjusted in the Euroleague. He's also a very good offensive rebounder, and does a good job playing within himself, even if he's not much of a factor as a scoring threat. Although he's on the small side at 6-7, there's a chance that he could be a productive player in the mold of Chuck Hayes or Joel Anthony in the right role. The team that initially drafted him—the Golden State Warriors—obviously were never going to be a good fit seeing as they don't value the things he does well.
21 Viktor Khryapa SF/PF
A former first round draft pick who never really found his place in the NBA, Khryapa continues to stake his claim as one of the best forwards in European basketball. In the NBA he was primarily used as a small forward, but he's proven to be much more effective as a face-up four who rebounds, defends and collects garbage offense unselfishly without any plays being run for him. If he were a lights out 3-point shooter (he showed flashes of that last year) he probably never would have left the NBA. He's also been a bit too turnover prone throughout his career, but in a smaller role that likely won't be as much of an issue. Khryapa is one of the highest paid players in European basketball, making 2.5 million Euros net per year, which is at least the equivalent of the NBA's mid-level exception, something that makes it a little difficult to see him coming back to the States anytime soon. On pure talent and versatility though he surely has what it takes.
22 Earl Calloway PG
Cajasol Sevilla
Calloway had a very nice rookie season playing for Euroleague squad Cibona Zagreb last year, and is now garnering excellent experience in the ACB with Cajasol Sevilla, one of the surprise teams of the league at 8-6. He's struggled somewhat making the adjustment to the very disciplined Spanish defenses in the early going, as evidenced by his high turnover-rate and poor 2-point percentages, but has been absolutely lights out from beyond the arc this season. That's a good sign since that hasn't really been the case throughout his career, so it will be interesting to see if he can keep that up. Has terrific size for his position to go along with solid athleticism and is still young at 26 years old, so at the very least he could be a guy to keep in mind as a terrific summer league candidate, if not more than that.
23 Andre Owens SG
Owens was covered in depth in an article two weeks ago, which can be found here.
24 Pooh Jeter PG
26 years old, 5' 11" 175lbs.
Hapoel Jerusalem
Jeter is settling in nicely into a feature role with Hapoel Jerusalem after starting off the season coming off the bench for Euroleague team Unicaja Malaga. We may be a bit biased in this case, but in our mind there is no reason not to think that he's right on the cusp of the NBA with his terrific quickness and creativity. He proved as much by being one of the best point guards in summer league playing for Portland. His improved perimeter shooting ability is a major plus, as are his strong intangibles, and his size may not be as much of an issue these days considering the success that many sub-six-foot point guards are having in the NBA right now.

2. miejsce podczas Światowego Finału IAAF (Stuttgart 2006)

Kikaya jest także rekordzistą Konga na wielu innych dystansach:
bieg na 200 m – 20.40 (2006) rekord Konga
bieg na 300 m – 31.95 (2005) rekord Konga
bieg na 55 m (hala) – 6.20 (2005) rekord Konga
bieg na 200 m (hala) – 21.23 (2003) rekord Konga / 20.84 (2004, wynik uzyskany na bieżni o obwodzie większym niż 200 metrów)
bieg na 400 m (hala) – 45.71 (2003) rekord Konga

After college, I always wanted to be able to live abroad and volunteer in a cause I really believed in. After searching through many programs, I came across Connect-123 and I couldn't have been happier. The program coordinator found me an awesome house in Buenos Aires, I ended up living with about 12 people, half Argentines and half foreigners, a perfect mix. She also found an amazing organization where I worked with children and hunger, exactly the type of organization I was looking for.
The day I arrived, I had an introduction meeting with my coordinator where I was given a lot of helpful information and tips about the city. Connect offered a great support system during my 6 months in Argentina, every week, they had a different activity that you could participate in. I really liked the very "hands off" feel of the organization, you could be as involved with the Connect community as you wanted. I'm very happy with how my time turned out and I can't wait to go back!

This trip is strictly for women who want to relax actively. Favourite activities and location for this is the Kenai Peninsula located in south central Alaska. On this holiday, you can spot, venture into grizzly bear territory and watch wild bears.
You could also do some whale watching, cruise through the sparkling blue glaciers, visit the Kenai Fjords National Park, discover breathtaking mountain meadows and hike in the Alaskan wilderness. Nothing quite beats being so close to the bears. That is surely bound to get your adrenaline flowing. This holiday is bound to provide you with both the rest you need and reenergize you.
Mexico's Baja peninsula offers an amazing array of activities for women who want to just enjoy themselves and have a lot of fun on their holidays. Some activities you could partake in there include snorkelling, sea swimming, sea kayakingand whale watching.
In fact, women who have gone on these vacations have been known to spot the California Grey Whales. This holiday is best done in the winter as you'll stand a better chance of seeing the whales because of their migratory patterns.
Okay, not all of France. If you can however, that's cool. If not, this particular holiday involves hiking the Camino de Santiago Pilgrimage Trail in France. Known in english as the Way of St. James, walking this route not only keeps you fit and strong, it also allows for solitude and introspection.
So, not only are you gaining physical benefits, but also spiritual and mental benefits. Hiking typically begins in the town of Le Puy en Velay. During the walk, you can also get to visit one of the most beautiful places in France, the Midi-Pyrenees regions, climb high plateaus, see the Knights Templar Grange of Le Sauvage and enjoy the hilltop views of villages and valleys.
The Caribbeans aren't meant for just lazing around the beaches and sipping martinis. It's also for those want an active adventure holiday. It offers cave expeditions, scuba diving, coral reef exploration, sea swimming, trail hiking, running, snorkelling, horseback riding and sailing activities for just women. You can choose to do some or all of them. And if you prefer extreme activities, there's more than enough to go round. So, it all depends on you. That combined with the friendly locals and amazing views, scenery and landscape makes for a highly satisfying vacation.
Guest Author : Sam Jones is the author of this article and has seen a rise in the number of women prepared to take off on a solo adventure holiday. For women thinking of going back packing, he recommends this post with some very sensible travel tips and safety suggestions.

Amazon's Bid for Dubai's Souq.com Faces A Challenger
Posted on March 27, 2017 March 27, 2017 10:10 am
Amazon may be facing a big contender in its efforts to strike a deal to purchase Dubai-based online retailer Souq.com.
Just last week, it was reported by Reuters, citing sources familiar with the deal, that Amazon had inked a deal to buy Souq.com. The report also said Amazon was purchasing 100 percent of Souq.com. Both companies declined to comment to Reuters.
Souq.com sells everything from consumer electronics to household products. It also sells fashion and other items on its website. By acquiring the company, Amazon would own one of the most well-known online retailers in the Middle East. It was noted that Souq.com sells more than 1.5 million products online.
But a new report over the weekend may throw a wrench in Amazon's plans.
According to Bloomberg, Amazon's $65s0 million offer for Souq.com was challenged by an approximately $800 million bid by Emaar Malls, the retail division of Dubai's largest publicly traded property developer.
People familiar with the matter told the outlet that a final agreement has yet to be made with any bidder.
Earlier this month, Amazon rekindled acquisition talks with Souq.com after discussions reportedly went south last year.
Bloomberg reported in November that talks between Amazon and Souq.com were focused on Amazon paying about $1 billion to gain access to a high-growth market in the Middle East. Citing people familiar with the matter, Bloomberg said Amazon was mulling making an offer for all of Souq.com, which originally was looking to sell around 30 percent of the company.
In March 2016, Souq.com raised $275 million in a round of funding in what the Middle Eastern eCommerce retailer said was the region's largest single round of funding ever.
Cofounder and CEO Ronaldo Mouchawar explained in an interview with PYMNTS back then that the finances would accelerate the site's growth, which has already been running at a torrid pace, thanks to technological infrastructure improvements across the Middle East.
"Further growth is inherent from being in a market with the highest mobile penetration in the world and continued adoption of mobile commerce by our customers," Mouchawar said. "Souq.com is constantly enhancing its customer experience, for both buyers and sellers. SMEs in particular are true growth drivers in our economy, and our aim is to empower merchants to reap the benefits of eCommerce and further drive growth via mobile. Capitalizing on the step-change in consumer behavior and business benefit toward mobile commerce, Souq.com will continue to lead the eCommerce industry in the region."

The crossing was quiet and fast.
I found a perfect organization, perfect times, excellent services on board, shops, bars and restaurants.
Hello! I travel to Sweden very often and I am very happy of the staff. I recommend it to my friends and the company Direct Ferries. I wish you have a nice trip. Regards!
I am very happy of the staff and of my trip.
The travell in windy day was safe. For travellers I recommend to take very fast seats on the comfortable sofas what makes the travell more pleasure. The deparute and arrival time was very accurate.

What do you think about this article? Rate it using the stars above and let us know what you think in the comments below.
You might have heard the term ''occupational therapy'' and wondered what it meant. Many people hear the term and immediately think occupational therapy jobs are like vocational and career counselor jobs. It turns out that occupational therapy is totally unrelated to vocational counseling, though it is about work — the work of daily living.
Occupational therapy is a type of allied health care that involves helping people to effectively complete the tasks of daily living. Some examples of duties performed in occupational therapy include helping people adapt to traumatic injuries, helping disabled or learning delayed children navigate their physical and social environments, and helping the elderly cope with memory loss or other kinds of disability.
Occupational Therapy for Adults
Let's consider a specific example. A man has been injured, and his right arm has become permanently paralyzed as a result of the accident. There are many things that he will need to re-learn to do. If he is right handed, he will need to learn to write with his left hand. He'll need to be able to bathe, feed, and clothe himself with the use of just one hand. His therapy might include strengthening exercises in the working hand, manipulation of the paralyzed arm to keep the muscles from atrophying so that the arm will retain as normal an appearance as possible, and instruction in the use of adaptive equipment.
Occupational Therapy for Children
A second example of the type of person an occupational therapist might help is a child who has delayed fine neuro-motor development. The occupational therapist will assess the child through a variety of task-based tests, and will design a therapy program using activities that the child will enjoy, like drawing, molding, picking up small objects, and similar activities. The therapist may instruct the child's parents in techniques that can be utilized a home.
Occupational Therapy for the Elderly
A final example of a patient helped by occupational therapists is an elderly person in the early stages of dementia and memory loss. A therapist can help elderly people retain their independence by teaching them safety and coping skills, like list making, for example. Perhaps the therapist will help design a checklist for use by an elderly woman that she will need to complete each time she leaves her apartment. She will be sure the stove is turned off, the door is locked, and her heart medication is in her purse, for example.
Where do Occupational Therapist Professionals Work?
Occupational therapy jobs at hospitals, clinics, and schools are plentiful. Occupational therapy jobs at hospitals focus on providing inpatient care to people suffering from short-term trauma or illness, and may focus on patients with chronic illnesses who will have a lengthy inpatient stay. Occupational therapists (and occupational therapy assistants and aides) focus on outpatient therapy in private and public clinics. In schools, occupational therapy professionals often work with children in special education programs. Occupational therapy professionals may also work in nursing homes, hand therapy clinics, and home health settings, to name just a few.
What Kind of Training is required?
Because there are different levels of jobs for occupational therapy professionals, required training will depend on where you want to function as part of an occupational therapy team. Licensed occupational therapists require the highest level of education, and must complete a master's degree to obtain licensure. An occupational therapy assistant must usually complete a two-year degree and licensing requirements to become a certified occupational therapy assistant (OTA). Occupational therapy aides may not require special training. Occupational therapy aides work under the supervision of occupational therapy assistants and occupational therapists. Working as an aide can be a good way to see if occupational therapy is a career that interests you, and can lead as a stepping-stone to an occupational therapy assistant program.
What is the Role of Each Occupational Therapy Professional?
The occupational therapist is the head of a therapy team. The therapist evaluates patients, plans treatment regimens, and oversees the treatment process. The therapist must adjust therapy based on the patient's progress over time. The assistant's role is to help in planning and make recommendations to the therapist, and to implement the therapy plan. The aide's role is limited generally to providing physical assistance (helping patients stand and sit, for example), and helping clean and prepare the therapy area for each session.
Jobs for Occupational Therapy Professionals
Jobs for occupational therapy assistants and aides, as well as for occupational therapists are expected to experience continued growth for the next several years. This is in part because of the surge in the elderly population, making geriatrics a filed in which more occupational therapy professionals are desperately needed. Opportunities in occupational therapy jobs at inpatient and outpatient facilities should continue to be good. Jobs for occupational therapy in pediatrics, acute care, and home health are also in demand.
If you enjoy studying health related subjects and would like to work in a field that integrates physical, mental, and emotional health, occupational therapy is a career you should consider. It offers excellent job outlook, good pay, and the opportunity to help others through a richly rewarding career.

Young children are learning to walk, talk, play and read. Nutrition plays an important role in the success of accomplishing these milestones and growing a healthy child. Offering your child healthy, well-balanced meals and snacks will help him develop a healthy mind and body and teach him life skills that will reach far into adulthood.
Please know that your child will be served healthy meals at my home. They will be introduced and given the opportunity to try new foods throughout the seasons and will also play a major part in preparing their own meals and snacks.

Policy BriefPolitics
Palestine's Day in Court? The Unexpected Effects of ICC Action
by Valentina Azarova on April 1, 2015
Palestine's membership of the International Criminal Court (ICC) formally goes into effect April 1, 2015. As Palestinians and proponents of international justice worldwide await the Office of the Prosecutor's next move, it is important to assess what heavy-lifting the ICC could realistically undertake in the Palestine-Israel context as well as what other accountability avenues exist.
Against the backdrop of Palestine's brief yet turbulent history at the ICC, Al-Shabaka Policy Member Valentina Azarova discusses the current state of play regarding Palestine at the ICC and its potential trajectory given the Court's practice and policy considerations. She also discusses Israel's legal offensive against the Palestinian move, including pressure against the ICC itself, the potential for an ICC examination to further other accountability efforts, including those directed towards third party actors, and the danger that the UN Security Council may suspend the investigation. In doing so, Azarova addresses many of the misconceptions that exist about what the ICC can and cannot do – including amongst Palestinian policy makers themselves. She concludes with policy recommendations for a way forward.
Palestine & the ICC: The State of Play
The ICC was intended to serve as an international judicial body that pursues individual perpetrators of international crimes that "deeply shock the conscience of humanity". Given its limited resources and capacity, it is expected to ensure the efficiency and effectiveness of its interventions in situations of conflict and mass atrocities, in order to combat impunity and deter acts that perpetuate conflict.
As with any international body, the International Criminal Court (ICC) is a political animal dependent on state consent. It is also a normative "powerhouse" of international legal enforcement against individual delinquents, embodying the common interests of law-abiding states. To protect the ICC's machinery, it should not be appealed to politically. Regrettably, all sides have subjected Palestine's move to trigger ICC jurisdiction – and with it, the basic service of justice – to the politics and compromises of the Palestinian statehood bid.
Palestine's accession to the Rome Statute and 15 other treaties on January 1, 2015 was the latest iteration of Palestine's statehood bid. The process began in early 2011 and saw Palestine gain membership of the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization (UNESCO) later that year. Palestine has now ratified or acceded to a total of 44 treaties and conventions, including eight UNESCO conventions in early 2012, and 20 other treaties, including key international humanitarian law (IHL) and international human rights law (IHRL) instruments, in April 2014.
The proponents of Palestine's statehood bid framed it as a move intended to "internationalize the conflict," level the playing field, and operationalize Palestine's political and legal rights as a state in the international system. Most of the discussion of these moves has focused on their political benefits – but they also opened up legal channels and mechanisms which could facilitate concrete achievements if implemented diligently and in good faith with other states and international bodies.
Palestinian and international human rights groups, which lauded the statehood bid for its potential to guarantee rights and accountability, lobbied Palestinian leaders to go to the ICC. They hoped it would restrain Israel's use of force, curb its illegal conduct, and provide at least a nominal judicial forum for victims to hold Israeli perpetrators accountable.
In fact, Palestine's history at the ICC predates the UN General Assembly vote to accord Palestine non-member observer state status in 2012. Some of the 400 complaints on file with the ICC Office of the Prosecutor (hereinafter also referred to as "the Prosecutor") were submitted by groups and individuals immediately after the 2008-2009 military offensive, Operation Cast Lead, in the Gaza Strip. These included complaints submitted by South African lawyers concerning their own nationals enlisted in the Israeli army and documented cases of war crimes allegations submitted by Palestinian human rights groups in Gaza.
In the aftermath of that offensive, in January 2009, the then Minister of Justice Ali Kashan sent an official declaration under Article 12(3) of the Rome Statute to the Office of the Prosecutor, then headed by Luis Moreno Ocampo. The Prosecutor slow-walked the process into oblivion by launching an unnecessary academic debate on the question of Palestine's status as a state in international law. If Palestine's statehood status were in doubt, the Prosecutor should have accepted Palestine's declaration, or referred the question to the Pre-Trial Chamber.
After more than three years of deliberations, the Prosecutor abruptly issued a non-decision on 4 April 2012 requesting that the question be settled by the UN, although Palestine's statehood status had been confirmed in October 2011, when a majority of UN member states voted in favor of its membership in UNESCO.
Meanwhile, Israel, France, the United Kingdom (UK), the United States and others pressured Palestinian officials not to trigger the ICC, which further politicized the issue of the ICC. Nevertheless, on 25 July 2014, PA Justice Minister Saleem al-Saqqa and General Prosecutor Ismaeil Jabr submitted a letter to the Office of the Prosecutor, via a French law firm, requesting that investigations be opened on the basis of the 2009 declaration. However, the then Prosecutor Fatou Bensouda, responded that "only the Head of State, Head of Government and Minister of Foreign Affairs" could express Palestine's consent to be bound by the Court's jurisdiction. The letter stated that Palestine's Foreign Minister Malki, who paid a visit to the Office of the Prosecutor on 5 August 2014, did not confirm that his government approved the request.
To disperse misconceptions about Malki's visit to her office in August 2014, Prosecutor Bensouda authored an op-ed in The Guardian and on 2 September 2014 her office published a statement clarifying that the "alleged crimes in Palestine are beyond the legal reach of the ICC" because the Palestinian government had not taken the necessary steps to trigger the Court's jurisdiction by either submitting a new 12(3) declaration, or acceding to the Rome Statute as a new State Party.
Meanwhile, on 6 November 2014, the Prosecutor decided not to open an investigation in response to the referral made by the Comoros Islands under Rome Statute Article 14 regarding the May 2010 attack by Israeli forces that killed 10 civilians trying to reach the Gaza Strip in the "Gaza Flotilla" (the Comoros was a flag-state for a ship in the flotilla.) The Prosecutor held that, despite reasonable basis to believe that war crimes were committed on board the vessel, the incident was not of sufficient gravity to justify ICC action.
On 1 January 2015, after almost a two-year delay, Palestine sought to activate two triggering-mechanisms for ICC jurisdiction: It filed a new 12(3) declaration with a temporal scope dating back to 13 June 2014, to match that of the Commission of Inquiry on the 2014 Gaza conflict, and it deposited accession instruments to the Rome Statute with the UN Secretary General. The ICC registrar transferred the declaration to the Office of the Prosecutor on 7 January 2015, and the accession instrument was effected on 2 January 2015 to become operative from 1 April. The Office of the Prosecutor announced on 16 January 2015 that it had opened a preliminary examination on the basis of the 12(3) declaration. It should be noted that, while the ICC's Pre-Trial Chamber may weigh in on the issue of statehood at some point, it is strictly speaking not in a position to decide that Palestine cannot accede to the Rome Statute.
Statements made by Palestinian officials following the recent declaration and accession to the ICC – including reports that "the appeal to the ICC would be withdrawn if Israel were to freeze settlement construction" – indicate continued attempts to use the ICC as a political bargaining chip. However, short of Palestine withdrawing its declaration or accession, it has no power to reverse the move and bring the ICC's ongoing preliminary examination to a halt in favor of a return to negotiations.
It should be noted that, according to Article 16 of Rome Statute, the UN Security Council does have the power to defer an investigation or prosecution for a renewable period of 12 months, if a UN Charter Chapter VII resolution is adopted by an affirmative vote of nine members with no vetoes. The provision, which mandates a strict construction of a threat to international peace and security, has only been used on two previous occasions (Resolutions 1422 and 1487 granting immunity to UN Peacekeepers from countries not party to the Statute). Yet there have been a number of other attempts to trigger the use of this proviso, and in the case of Palestine there are rumors that an Article 16 deferral of the ICC might be on the cards if a UN resolution setting parameters for a peace settlement is presented by France, which may be advocating one, or the US, which has made noises in this regard.
The scope of the examination and any specific cases ultimately chosen for prosecution by are also out of Palestine's control. For example, the Prosecutor would be unlikely to accept a limitation that seeks to shield Palestinians from possible prosecution or to consider an a-la-carte investigations menu. All wrongdoing within the Court's jurisdiction in the Palestine-Israel context since 13 June 2014 may be held to account.
In addition, there are several hurdles on the way to opening actual criminal investigations, including the procedural criteria considered during the preliminary examination phase and the substantive hurdles pertaining to the choice of specific cases.
Procedural Issues: Palestine's Options (and Lack Thereof)
The opening of a preliminary examination by the Office of the Prosecutor does not indicate that an investigation is likely to follow; most of the Prosecutor's preliminary examinations have been closed without opening investigations. Indeed, the Prosecutor opens a preliminary examination in every case referred to it. The preliminary examination stage consists of: Initial assessment of information; resolution of jurisdictional matters, identifying the location and type of crimes; considering questions of the admissibility of the situation and specific cases; and the effects of the Court's prospective action on the "interests of justice" in the broader Palestine-Israel context. 1
Practitioners at the Court reported an attempt by Canada, on behalf of Israel and the US, to launch a campaign in the Assembly of States Party to prevent Palestine's accession. However, there is no official procedure for challenging accession. The UN treaty system has already been updated to include Palestine as the 123rd State Party of the Rome Statute and the ICC's website has done the same.
As of April 1, Palestine could submit a referral under Article 14, as a State Party to the Statute, to refer a "situation" without selecting specific cases; the referral's content could be new, or could consist of the content of the January 2015 Article 12(3) declaration. If Palestinian officials attempt to direct the Office of the Prosecutor's attention to specific cases, it may reject the referral. Any such referral, as is the case with a 12(3) declaration, would not limit the type of cases or evidence considered by the Office and is highly unlikely to direct the Prosecutor's attention away from Palestinian violations.
If the Prosecutor decides to open an investigation but decides to treat the 12(3) declaration as distinct from any referral that Palestine as a State Party might make after April 1, then the investigation would be opened proprio motu (i.e. on her own motion) and Pre-Trial Chamber approval would be required to proceed with the investigation. Alternatively, if the Prosecutor treats the 12(3) declaration as a state referral after Palestine's accession becomes operative, or if Palestine submits a referral under Article 14 with the same parameters, dating back to 13 June 2014 — no Pre-Trial Chamber approval is required.
If the Prosecutor declines to investigate, there would also be a procedural difference between a 12(3) declaration and a referral. If the Prosecutor's decision to decline investigation is based on considerations of the "interests of justice" Palestine could petition the Pre-Trial Chamber to initiate a "hard" review with option to reverse once it becomes a State Party on 1 April. If the decision not to investigate is based on admissibility concerns — including the lack of gravity of the situation or the availability of domestic prosecutions as happened in the case of the Comoros referral – the Chamber can only request the Prosecutor to reconsider, but cannot order it to do so.
Experts on the court have said that the Chamber is unlikely to second-guess a Prosecutor decision not to investigate or to refuse to approve a Prosecutor decision to open an investigation proprio motu. The Chamber has never ordered the Prosecutor to open an investigation. As Kevin Jon Heller has remarked in relation to the Comoros referral of the Flotilla case: "No one quite knows what would happen if the [Chamber] ever ordered the [Prosecutor] to conduct a formal investigation against its will."
Thus, contrary to statements by Palestinian officials that Palestine needs to submit an article 14 referral on April 1 to direct the prosecutor to open an investigation – particularly into the settlements file, as reportedly said by Palestinian Foreign Minister Malki - the Office of the Prosecutor cannot be "forced" to open an investigation or to present a request to open a formal investigation to the Pre-Trial Chamber for approval. Nor, again, can Palestine as a State Party, post-April 1, direct the Prosecutor's decision to consider investigation of some specific cases, and not others.
Substantive Hurdles: Israel's Attempts to Push Back
To open an investigation, the Office of the Prosecutor is required to examine the admissibility of the situation under the Court's Statute and its own policy and practice. The elements relevant to the case of Palestine include the principle of complementarity; Israel's official refusal to cooperate with the Court; and considerations pertaining to the "interests of justice." These issues should be studied and addressed in the dossiers to be submitted to the Prosecutor.
The principle of complementarity gives precedence to national proceedings against alleged perpetrators of international crimes. Situations and cases are admissible if the state whose officials are responsible for the wrongful act remains inactive, undertakes actions that are deficient, or demonstrates unwillingness or inability (Article 17).
The threshold used to assess a State's unwillingness to genuinely carry out investigations is based on an intention to shield perpetrators, an unjustified delay in proceedings, or a lack of independence and impartiality or genuine intent to bring perpetrators to justice (Article 17(2)). Other factual indicators include: hastiness indicative of a desire to whitewash allegations; an insufficient number of investigations opened; inadequate resources allocated to investigations, reflected in deficient evidence gathering methods and other procedural irregularities; an insufficient degree of independence; and the granting of immunities with a purpose of shielding, made possible by deficient legislation; and grossly inadequate sentences. Notably, the Office of the Prosecutor has affirmed that the crime charged does not need to mirror a crime prescribed by the Rome Statute; serious domestic crimes will suffice as long as they cover substantially the same conduct.
Israel's track record since Operation Cast Lead of prosecuting and convicting only four soldiers, and issuing the harshest sentence for a case of credit card theft, would almost certainly be deemed by the Prosecutor as insufficient to foreclose ICC jurisdiction. Israel's "Turkel II" report on investigative mechanisms for Israeli security forces has not led to any significant changes or any sign that the report's recommendations will be implemented.
The question is not whether Israel is "able" to conduct any investigations, but whether it is "willing" to do so given its long-standing legal and institutional practice, which includes refusing the application of IHL en bloc to Palestinian territory, extending the application of Israeli domestic legal jurisdiction to the West Bank, and rejecting the international consensus that the Gaza Strip is occupied territory. Furthermore, Israeli courts refuse to adjudicate certain matters, like settlement construction, through deference to the executive power's positions, and Israeli law treats settlements as part of Israel. In addition, Israeli legal and administrative practice for certain internationally criminal acts such as "targeted killings," punitive and administrative house demolitions, unlawful interrogation methods including torture indicate an unlawfully-expansive definition of military targets.
Israel, well aware of the complementarity principle, is clearly taking steps to shield itself from ICC investigation. Israel's State Comptroller, Judge Yosef Shapira decided in August 2014 to investigate decision-making by Israeli military and political echelons during Operation Protective Edge, with reference to "aspects of international law" and "Israel's mechanisms of investigating complaints and claims regarding violations of armed conflict according to international law and determined guidelines for such investigational procedures."
In addition, on 2 February 2015, news media reported that a legal team from the Prime Minister's Office, the Israeli army, and the Justice, Foreign Affairs, and Defense ministries, are preparing a joint report on Operation Protective Edge.
Israel's decision not to cooperate with the Court will present an additional substantive hurdle to the Prosecutor's ability to effectively conduct investigations, choose specific cases and pursue alleged criminals. Israeli non-cooperation may not present an obstacle to open-and-shut cases – including Israel's settlement activities, the effects of the Gaza blockade, and some Israeli attacks during Protective Edge. However, Israeli non-cooperation will hinder the Prosecutor's ability to investigate more complex cases concerning Israel's conduct of hostilities in Gaza, and some of the law enforcement operations conducted in the West Bank. If Israel refuses to provide its version of events, for instance, the Prosecutor might feel unable to launch and see through a criminal process alleging violations of the law of targeting.
The decision to open an investigation may in certain cases also be subject to the countervailing consideration of the "interests of justice." While the Court should not meddle with the prospects of peace when determining the interests of justice – which the ICC's very existence repudiates, and which the Office of the Prosecutor has officially disclaimed – it may nevertheless conclude that there are "substantial reasons to believe that an investigation would not serve the interests of justice" (Article 53(1)). Relevant considerations may include issues of crime prevention, security, and the duty to protect victims and witnesses.
However, the circumstances in which the "interests of justice" may be invoked are exceptional. The Rome Statute apparently addresses the potential that this vague criterion may cause mischief by providing the Pre-Trial Chamber with the power to conduct a "hard" review as noted above. Given that the Court's role is "to guarantee lasting respect for and the enforcement of international justice," a narrow interpretation of the "interests of justice" is consistent with the Statute's object and purpose. It is reasonable to expect that the Court will see the need to intervene, while treading carefully, in a long-standing conflict in which victims experience an accountability vacuum.
The Prosecutor will also be bound to consider gravity: both in terms of the overall situation as well as regards specific cases. If it does open a formal investigation that appears defensible in terms of the gravity of the situation, it then has to decide which specific cases are important enough to pursue.
What Might Some Specific Case Choices Be?
As part of the Office of the Prosecutor's examination of issues of jurisdiction and admissibility, it will seek to identify cases based on the evidence available, including submissions by groups and individuals. The Office will identify specific incidents and patterns that fit within the Court's jurisdiction over Palestinian territory (the West Bank, including East Jerusalem, and the Gaza Strip), including war crimes and crimes against humanity. In choosing specific cases, it will also take into account considerations such as the gravity of specific incidents and the "contextual" requirement that each crime have a connection to policies and practices that perpetuate atrocities. In addition, it will take into account its ability to see each case through, from evidence-gathering, to prosecution, to bringing alleged criminals before the court, in light of its limited resources.
No Prosecutor would be able to examine, let alone investigate every war crime committed within the ICC's temporal jurisdiction in the Palestine situation. Yet, as Harvard Professor Alex Whiting, who served at the Office of the Prosecutor, aptly remarks, it is often made "to strike hard and nuanced balances" between pragmatism and principle.
The Prosecutor's consideration of gravity, in particular at the level of specific cases, is not limited to quantitative criteria. As per its practice generally, all the crimes within the jurisdiction of the Court are grave enough to pursue; however, which crimes are actually pursued is a matter of the Office's policy. For example, despite the relatively small number of people killed by rockets and mortars launched into Israel by Palestinian armed groups in the Gaza Strip, the attacks would most probably be considered grave enough for inclusion among the specific cases within the overall situation, especially given the political significance of investigating both sides. The relative ease of pursuing certain cases in terms of gathering evidence that supports charges of war crimes under the Statute could persuade the Prosecutor to pursue these attacks along with a number of more complex ones.
In the case of war crimes, the successful prosecution of high-ranking defendants involves showing an abuse of power and of the rule of law. In the Israeli case, the Prosecutor might demonstrate abuses based on domestic laws and institutional practice. Mark Osiel, an expert on mass atrocities, remarks that "the aim of international law […] is precisely to remind and exhort that our relevant normative environment is never exclusively that of our particular nation-state and its law."
The Office of the Prosecutor's limited resources and political sensibility make it likely to prosecute the safest cases, legally and practically speaking. Israeli settlements – which involve the unlawful and extensive appropriation of land, and the direct and indirect transfer of the occupier's civilians into occupied territory – are widely viewed as being among the soundest and strategically safe case in the Israeli-Palestinian situation. Settlement construction would not be possible without the legal and administrative machinery of state bodies, members of both the military and civilian governments. Private companies and individuals also play a crucial role: For instance companies registered with the Israeli Civil Administration (the military commander's government in occupied Palestine) facilitate fraudulent land transactions that trigger "state land" declarations, amongst other internationally-unlawful processes of land appropriation. This network of public and private perpetrators is both structurally significant and substantively relevant to the Prosecutor's "efficacy" consideration in choosing cases.
A key legal question concerning the settlements case would be whether the nature of the criminal act of appropriation and transfer of the settler population is "continuous" for so long as a given settlement continues to exist, or conversely whether the only crimes under ICC jurisdiction would involve unlawful appropriations or transfers of Israeli civilians into occupied territory that occurred after 13 June 2014, the temporal jurisdiction ascribed to the Court (the date set by Palestine in its 12(3) declaration.) There is limited practice in respect of this question.
The Prosecutor could also investigate whether a regime of apartheid results from the establishment of settlements and their ensuing effects – including two separate legal systems for Palestinians and Israelis that entrench systematic and widespread violations of humanitarian law. Despite the overwhelming evidence, the Prosecutor might consider an apartheid prosecution to be excessively novel, challenging, and politically charged. Since the crime of apartheid is comprised in the main of sub-sets of war crimes, the Office might view investigating and prosecuting the latter crimes as a sounder legal and political strategy, and less resource-intensive, than a case that Israel's illegal regime in Palestinian territory amounts to apartheid. A complex prosecutorial agenda might also risk further delaying the opening of specific investigations.
Given the temporal scope for retroactive investigations under Palestine's new article 12(3) declaration, the Office of the Prosecutor might examine and where appropriate open investigations into Israeli and Palestinian actions during Israel's Operation Protective Edge in summer 2014. Here, the difficulty for the Prosecutor would be obtaining the facts and identifying specific Israeli decision-makers and commanders to ensure that prosecutions survive a criminal proceeding without being debunked by Israel's counter-claims. Some cases appear to present overwhelming evidence of war crimes, including the targeting of specially-protected civilian objects such as hospitals, or the undeclared policy of targeting inhabited homes, the extensive and wanton destruction of high-rise buildings during the final days of the offensive, the Israeli army's use of Palestinian civilians as "human shields," and the indiscriminate use of heavy artillery in Rafah, Shujaiyeh, and Beit Hanoun. It is not unreasonable, in light of the Office's practice, to expect that it will open investigations into difficult cases and gather sufficient facts to issue indictments even without Israel's cooperation.
Israel's Campaign to Head Off the ICC
The Israeli official response to Palestine's moves at the ICC is unsurprising. Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu reportedly ordered the launch of a media campaign against the ICC, whereas Foreign Affairs Minister Avigdor Lieberman went so far as to say that it should be put out of business. The Court's leading supporters and funders, including Germany, the UK and France, have so far resisted Israel's call to cut the Court's funding. It is unclear what these governments might choose to do when the Office of the Prosecutor decides upon its next steps.
Some commentators have warned that the Israeli campaign may not serve the best interests of Israeli allies like the US and Canada, or even of Israel itself. Some years after the US "un-signed" the ICC Statute in 2002, the US State Department Legal Advisor said that a cooperative relationship with the ICC ultimately served US interests because of the large body of international support the ICC's enjoyed." Whiting argued that it would be imprudent and counterproductive "for the US to step back from the court now because of Palestine." Other experts have also cautioned against US government threats to cut off funding to the PA.
Israel legal offensive against Palestine's accession to the ICC in fact began in 2009, when it set out to refute Palestine's state status as a means of disqualifying its January 2009 12(3) declaration. Although UN General Assembly resolution 67/19 of November 2012 upgraded Palestine to non-member state observer, the assertion that Palestine was not a state was nonetheless the basis for Canadian, US, and Israeli objections to the UN Secretary-General, as depositary for the Rome Statute, regarding Palestine's accession.
Given that the Prosecutor no longer considers Palestine's statehood an issue, at least not after November 2012, the Israeli legal offensive on ICC jurisdiction has apparently shifted to the issue of complementarity. Israel has embarked on a series of potentially resource-intensive, prolonged investigations into alleged wrongdoing by its forces in the Gaza Strip, as described above. Among other things, the Israeli army spokesperson and other officials have framed entire groups of the Palestinian population in the Gaza Strip as either voluntary or involuntary human shields, often while seeking to justify attacks that could amount to war crimes.
Qualitative and quantitative research on the impact of ICC actions on unlawful harm to civilians, as well as Israel's campaign to head off the ICC, indicate that the prospect of ICC investigations and prosecutions are part of Israel's political calculus regarding Palestine. Indeed, one expert argues "Israel's fury gives credence to the view that the court is […] a deeply relevant institution in international politics."
Beyond the ICC: A Strategy to Broaden Accountability
The ICC is only one manifestation of the values, standards enshrined by states in international law. Even if the Prosecutor slow-walks the preliminary examination, not all is lost: Other processes of international law enforcement, some already underway, can benefit indirectly from the effects of an ICC examination of Israeli violations.
Indeed, a Palestinian strategy to broaden the spectrum of international and inter-state accountability mechanisms and processes could ease the Prosecutor's political burden of having to deal with one of the most politicized conflicts in the world. The Palestinian bid to ratify international treaties has opened up a range of mechanisms and processes, such as those available under UNESCO treaties and the UN human rights system. But much work needs to be done to seize the opportunities that the bid has created.
There are substantial opportunities to hold the public and private sectors in Europe and North America to their own obligations under international law – as the MATTIN Group's methodology has demonstrated in the context of the European Union (EU) inter-state relations with Israel and as affirmed by the European private sector divestment wave in recent years. States' domestic regulation requires them to vet Israeli conduct and refuse dealings with private and public entities involved in or operating under illegal Israeli acts.
The ICC's examination of Israel's conduct could induce third party states, companies, and international organizations to review their engagements with Israeli entities and ensure that they do not give legal effect to unlawful Israeli conduct. In some cases, third states could even be obliged to trigger inter-state enforcement processes to obtain guarantees from Israel that condition the continuation of relations.
Actions third parties could take in relation to Israeli wrongdoing include: military, judicial and law enforcement cooperation, including multinational military training exercises (Israel's air force was removed last October from the list of armed forces taking part in training exercises in Sardinia); sale of arms and parts to Israel, given the unlawful use of certain weapons by Israeli forces; and restrictions on the travel and activities of specific Israeli individuals, political, military and private, involved in unlawful acts. The EU, for instance, has adopted a combination of these measures against Russia following its illegal annexation and demographic transformation of Crimea and Sevastopol.
The enforcement of international law can start with international institutions and norms that have concrete application in terms of obligations and enforcement measures in domestic law. For instance, UNESCO mechanisms could be triggered to determine that Israel's large-scale looting of artifacts and illegal excavations in occupied territory are international criminal acts. Such determinations could then be used to trigger domestic processes in third states, to ensure that persons, institutions, and companies involved in such acts are barred from carrying out their activities and bringing criminally-obtained property into third party state jurisdictions.
Outbidding the Bid: Conclusions and Recommendations
Based on past practice as well as probable political considerations, some experts predict that the ICC may take years to open an investigation and several more to reach any decisions, short of declining to open an investigation. Others, like Whiting maintain that the Office of the Prosecutor's "pragmatism will not last forever" and it "will be compelled to move forward". Yet the heavily politicized nature of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, the Prosecutor's limited resources and the lack of state cooperation mean that Palestine's trajectory at the Court might well follow those of Afghanistan and Colombia, where the preliminary examinations have taken 8 and 10 years respectively.There is also the risk that any ICC action might be indefinitely postponed by the Security Council, as noted above, in order to restart the moribund peace process. The high stakes riding on the ICC's actions mean it is crucial that Palestine and its supporters should act strategically.
Palestine should realize that its interests are best served not by misconstruing the ICC as a political tool but rather by seeking to depoliticize the ICC's examination of the situation in Palestine. It should establish a common, informed official and public position on the significance of the ICC as an impartial mechanism intended to provide the basic service of justice. A 21 January 2015 Presidential Decree established a Supreme National Committee responsible for ICC follow-up and for preparing files, consulting with international experts, and coordinating with civil society. Two committees were also established that include a technical and a civil society committee. The National Committee has come in for some criticism for lacking solid expertise and clear and transparent decision making processes, among other things. Nevertheless, the Committee should make it a point to ensure that the Office of the Prosecutor accurately understands the Israeli legal system and Israel's intrinsically deficient practice in applying international law.
At the same time, the public should be kept informed. While some workshops and roundtables have been organized in recent weeks, the public remains largely in the dark about the state of play, and Palestinian official statements on the issue have varied, often with a counter-productive effect.
Moreover, Palestine needs to couple a legal strategy, at the ICC and beyond, with key housekeeping measures that show its commitment to international law. It should ensure domestic conformity with international human rights law, humanitarian law, and criminal law through adequate legislation and institutional practice. Indeed, it is hoped that Palestine's accession to the Rome Statute will promote necessary domestic legislative and institutional reform, and harness domestic interest and capacity to prosecute crimes – an effect of ICC accession known as "positive complementarity".
Another housekeeping issue that has yet to be adequately addressed involves the structure and responsibilities of the Palestinian government. There is an urgent need to distinguish between the PA, the government of the State of Palestine, and the Palestine Liberation Organization (PLO), which represents the State in its external relations. 2 It is crucial to clearly distinguish the actions of the PA, which are subject to political and circumstantial coercion by Israel, from the positions of PLO representatives who represent the state in its international relations. 3 Perhaps not even the settlements case would be straightforward if the ICC mistook the PA's actions pursuant to the Oslo Accords – which explicitly provided for settlement activity in some instances, albeit under coercion – for acquiescence to such activity by a Palestinian government.
The ICC's action might indirectly help to clarify of Hamas' position within the structures of Palestinian government. The question of whether Hamas, as a local government, is responsible under international law treaties and conventions signed by the federal government of Palestine is consequential, since, formally, Hamas officials are considered part of the Palestinian unity government.
Finally, given that the path to ICC investigations is expected to be long and tumultuous, it will be crucial to garner the support of friendly states for independent ICC action. Moreover, the support of friendly states, and states that have enshrined their commitment to international law in their domestic orders will be essential to counter efforts by Israel and the US to politicize the issue. The EU's Common Position on the ICC and the policy commitments by states to the significance of the basic service of justice provided for by the ICC are "essential means of promoting respect for international humanitarian law and human rights," and should be the basis for productive exchanges by Palestinian officials and civil society to seek advice and expertise and bring EU Member States on side.

Henning Kvist Gregersen Grove (* 7. April 1932 in Svoldrup; † 9. Mai 2014 in Skals, Viborg Kommune) war ein dänischer Politiker von Det Konservative Folkeparti, der zwischen 1977 und 2001 Mitglied des Folketing sowie von 1982 bis 1986 Fischereiminister in der Regierung von Ministerpräsident Poul Schlüter war.
Leben
Grove, Sohn eines Landwirts, absolvierte nach der schulischen Ausbildung an der Grundschule in Havbro, der Realschule in Aars sowie des Rungsted Gymnasium zwischen 1952 und 1958 ein Studium der Veterinärmedizin an der Königlichen Veterinär- und Landwirtschaftsuniversität KVL (Kongelige Veterinær- og Landbohøjskole). Nach Abschluss des Studiums und der ärztlichen Zulassung begann er 1960 eine Tätigkeit als Tierarzt in Skals.
Neben seiner beruflichen Tätigkeit engagierte er sich in der Kommunalpolitik und war zwischen 1966 und 1970 Mitglied des Gemeinderates (Sogneråd) von Låstrup-Skals Sogn sowie anschließend von 1970 bis 1978 Mitglied des Rates von Viborg Amt. Während dieser Zeit war er zwischen 1974 und 1978 Vorsitzender des Krankenhausausschusses und von 1976 bis 1982 auch Vorsitzender der Sparkasse von Skals. Daneben war er Mitglied in der Tierärztlichen Vereinigung im Viborg Amt, deren Vorsitzender er zwischen 1975 und 1977 war.
Nachdem er bei den Wahlen vom 4. Dezember 1973 für Det Konservative Folkeparti erstmals ohne Erfolg für ein Mandat im Folketing kandidiert hatte, wurde er bei den Wahlen vom 15. Februar 1977 zum Mitglied des Folketing gewählt und vertrat dort bis zum 20. November 2001 Viborg Amt. 1982 war er Mitglied des Finanzausschusses des Folketing.
Am 10. September 1982 wurde Grove von Ministerpräsident Poul Schlüter als Fischereiminister (Fiskeriminister) in dessen erste Regierung berufen und gehörte dieser bis zu seiner Ablösung durch Lars P. Gammelgaard am 12. März 1986 an.
Anschließend war er von 1987 bis 1991 Vorsitzender des Marktausschusses (Folketingets Markedsudvalg) sowie danach bis 1994 Vorsitzender des Rechtsausschusses (Folketingets Retsudvalg). Zugleich fungierte er zwischen 1989 und 1997 als Vize-Vorsitzender der Fraktion der Konservativen Volkspartei und war außerdem von 1989 bis 1992 Vorsitzender der Telefongesellschaft Jydsk Telefon A/S.
Als 2. Vizepräsident des Folketing war Grove zwischen 1993 und 2001 Stellvertreter der damaligen Folketingpräsidenten Henning Rasmussen, Erling Olsen sowie zuletzt Ivar Hansen. Er verzichtete nach 24-jähriger Parlamentszugehörigkeit auf eine erneute Kandidatur bei der Folketingswahl am 20. November 2001.
Grove, der seit 1994 wieder Mitglied des Rates sowie des Wirtschaftsausschusses von Viborg Amt war, wurde für seine Verdienste 1997 zum Kommandeur 1. Klasse des Dannebrogordens ernannt. Darüber hinaus wurde ihm der Falkenorden von Island sowie der Orden des Löwen von Finnland verliehen.

The increasing complexity of current computer vision algorithms for autonomous driving, such as object detection and classification using neural networks, represents a challenge for automotive system designers. Providing a real-time processing system under hard real-time constraints and a low energy (budget a few watts) is difficult to achieve even with current technical platforms. The goal of this project is to design a new approach of application-specific vector processor for FPGA implementation. The well-known overhead of other platforms (e.g. GPUs) shall be avoided by using several strategies: Novel functional mechanisms, a modular and customizable architecture and a suitable development framework, which is especially designed for the implementation of automotive applications.). An FPGA-based prototype will demonstrate the performance of the vector processor concept for a selected application at the end of the project.
In the development of integrated, programmable circuits, the optimization of power dissipation and temperature distribution is becoming increasingly important. So far, however, these can only be determined by very time-consuming simulations. Therefore, precise models for the determination of power dissipation shall be developed and mapped together with the functional emulation on FPGAs. By accelerating the determination of power dissipation and temperature distribution, specific optimizations of the architecture and the application code can then be made taking real input data into account.
In this project, the design of mixed-signal circuits for signal processing is studied under high temperature conditions. For this, research on analog circuits and digital signal processing architectures will be conducted in order to adapt common design approaches to the requirements of high temperature technology.
The goal of the research is an MWD processor system for drilling tools used for geothermal drilling in ambient temperatures up to 300 °C. The processing of the project includes research aspects in the fields of hardware design, fault tolerance of digital systems and ASIC design.
The rehabilitation of stroke patients is an intense and lengthy process. The common therapy approach is based on movement training in presence of a therapist. Through many repetitions a remobilization of the patient is achieved. Due to this highly time‐consuming treatment, the costs of for the therapy are very high. Therefore, in this research project, we are focusing on the design of a mobile system, which will provide a motion feedback by means of sonification. It will enable therapist‐independent training and as a result lessen the strain on patient and healthcare system.
The goal of this research project in the field of biomedical engineering is to generate an auditory feedback (sonification) of human movements. The IMS focuses on examing the performance of different hardware platforms for this application. Relevant performance parameters are the platforms power dissipation and the overall latency. Finally, the project goal is to enhance stroke rehabilitation by additionally providing auditory arm movement feedback. This could lead to shortened rehabilitation periods. Furthermore, the mobile hardware platform developed at the IMS allows home based rehabilitation.
Parameters of analog circuits are not exactly known as they are influenced by fabrication, aging or environment temperature. At the Institute of Microelectronic Systems an analog circuit simulator was developed which use affine arithmetic to simulate these parameter deviations. This project aims at increasing the convergence area by using parameter splitting.
ROBUST researches new methods and procedures for designing robust nanoelectronic systems. The project defines quantitative measures of robustness. These metrics are determined by abstracting models of robustness and by applying new analysis methods suitable for the system level.
This project aims at generating behavioural models which include parameter variations of the original circuit. Parameter variations are represented by affine arithmetic.
The IMS develops method and measures for the analysis of analog verification coverage. The goal is to evaluate and to increase the verification coverage of analog and mixed-signal circuits.
The goal of this research project is the processing of FMCW sensor signals. The first step is intended to digitize the analog data on board through a suitable expansion card. In the second step, the digitized data is to be processed on board, and thus converted to an aerial image.
The project NEEDS is funded by the Bundesministerium für Bildung und Forschung (BMBF).
Highly integrated electronic systems with heterogeneous components enable reduction of resources and cost. To further benefit from the potential of electronic systems, NEEDS has the goal to advance the research in designing a new class of electronic systems, where several dies are stacked above each other (three-dimensional integrated circuits).
The main goal of this research project is to find appropriate optimization algorithms and datastructures for 3D-Floorplanning. Furthermore, new relevant optimization goals should be identified and analysed.
The IMS is subcontractor of the Infineon AG and will develop methods to manage domain-overlapping constraints.
THINGS2DO is an ENIAC project, funded by the European Union and the Federal Ministry of Education and Research. The project aims to develop the new Fully Depleted Silicon On Insulator (FD-SOI) technology and the corresponding tool environment for high efficient and highly integrated circuits. The capabilities of the technology are further demonstrated through a demonstrator in the area of Advanced Driver Assistance Systems (ADAS).
In cooperation with Dream Chip Technologies GmbH, Garben, Germany, the Institute of Microelectronic Systems develops with funding from the Federal Ministry of Economic Affairs and Energy a camera system with integrated algorithms for high quality real time motion estimation in the area of driver assistance systems.
The goal of this Project is the conceptual design of a real-time mutlicore-based demonstrator for video-based driver assistance algorithms. Therefore, different performance metrics will be displayed in order to compare platform-specific performance characteristics.
The goal of this sub-project of the BMBF project "Automatic Situation Interpretation for Event Triggered Video Surveillance" is to elaborate a concept for a hardware architecture that enables a SIFT (Scale Invariant Feature Transform) feature extraction under application-specific processing conditions as performance and power consumption. SIFT features offer a good basis for robust object identification and tracking for event triggered video surveillance. The field of application is thereby the airport apron, which is highly relevant to security. The concept was implemented on a FPGA-based hardware platform to build a demonstrator which was tested at the end of the project at the airport of Braunschweig.
In the scope of this project, a library of modules for driver assistence systems, based on a multicore processor architecture will be created. The project is in collaboration with the videantis corporation.
The objectives of the project PROPEDES is the design and demonstration of a flexible hardware archtecture based on a Very Long Instruction Word (VLIW) Softcore microprocessor for a vision-based pedestrian detection. The VLIW processor is to be supported by dedicated hardware accelerators to speed up future high-quality video-based driver assistance systems. Finally the architecture is to be implemented on a real-time FPGA-based demonstrator.
DESERVE is a project funded by the European Union. The aim of the project is the promotion and evolution of advanced driver assistance systems (ADAS). These systems are devoted to support the driver in the safe control of the vehicle. For this purpose, the DESERVE platform is planned to be developed. This platform will be the base for future development of advanced driver assistance systems in Europe.
In practice, general reliability of modern driver assistance systems under arbitrary traffic, weather and illumination conditions often is a problem. Because more robust algorithms are computationally very intensive, this project deals with the examination of heterogenous hardware architectures and the evaluation of new mechanisms for complex applications in the field of camera-based driver assistance.
Evaluation and analysis of the implemtability and performance of a new type of field programmable gate array (FPGA).
The communication parameters to be expected in an application scenario result from the combination of the employed standards' properties (IEEE 802.11, BLE, IEEE 802.154, ZigBee) and the specific radio wave propagation conditions of the considered building.

Annual Brent Berry Food Drive To Begin Next Week
By PETE DELEA
Daily News-Record 12/10/20
As COVID-19 lingers, Capt. Harold Gitau of the Harrisonburg Salvation Army said food insecurity continues to be a problem locally.
He said more and more people are headed to food pantries for basic staples.
"We're seeing more people who have never been through our doors before now asking for food," Gitau said.
This year, more than ever, he said, the Salvation Army is relying on the annual Brent Berry Food Drive.
Now in its 13th year, James "Bucky" Berry and his 21-year-old son, Brent Berry, started the drive because food pantries helped the elder Berry when he was a child.
Entering this year's campaign, the family collected enough food to feed more than 40,000 families.
"It's bad out there right now," the elder Berry said. "People's jobs are on the line. If we have another shutdown, people might not have money for food."
Last year, the family collected enough food to fill two Harrisonburg transit buses.
The family aims to collect enough food to fill the Salvation Army's food pantry for roughly six months. The food pantry serves about 250 people a month.
"It keeps our pantry going," Gitau said.
Last year, the Berry family set up at the now-defunct Red Front Supermarket on Chicago Avenue in Harrisonburg.
This year's collection is slated to start on Dec. 18 at Bridgewater Foods. It will run 12 hours a day, from 9 a.m. to 9 p.m., until Jan. 2.
Gitau said there's additional ways to help the Salvation Army during this critical time.
He said the organization is far away from meeting its annual kettle campaign goal of $ 175,000. As of Tuesday, it collected $ 47,000. That's about $ 20,000 behind this time last year. He said a lack of volunteers has restricted the number of days the Salvation Army is ringing the bell.
Additionally, the Harrisonburg Fire Department is teaming up with the Salvation
Army to provide bicycles for needy children in the area.
Residents can take new children's bikes to any of the city's four fire stations or the Rockingham County Fairgrounds by Dec. 16. The bikes, which should be for children 14 and younger, don't need to be assembled.
"We are lucky to be able to support this incredibly worthwhile event," Chief Matthew Tobia said in a statement. "At a time when so many people are suffering, our greatest gift is to be able to demonstrate compassion through giving."

Q: onClick from Header component to call function from Other component and render Reactjs I am using Reactjs to make pagination and problem I got is that I cannot back to home page if currentPage is changed.
My code structure of Body component like this:
componentDidMount() {
.....
}
componentDidUpdate() {
....
}
onPageChanged() {
....
this.setState({
pageChanged: true,
currentPage: currentPage //1,2,3...
});
}
render(){
return(..)
}
When onePageChanged if I click to Home route, It does not reflect anything. How I can set componentDidUpdate to return the first page if I click on Header?
my Header component:
<h1 className="site-title">
<Link to={CelestialSettings.path}>My Website</Link>
</h1>
I am thinking about using onClick on Header component like this:
<Link onClick={backhomepage()}>My Website</Link>
but I do not know how use.
Any suggestion? Thank you so much.

About JudyBeth Wagoner
WASHINGTON D.C. ISN'T A SWAMP; IT'S THE PORTAL TO HELL
September 16, 2017 JudyBeth Wagoner Uncategorized 0
I first became familiar with Washington D. C. socialite Sally Quinn a little over ten years ago when she was a guest on Bill O'Reilly's Fox News program. She specifically caught my interest as she acknowledged in the interview that she is an atheist. I was surprised and disappointed, but it fit her persona as a left-wing figure. Quinn was O'Reilly's guest several times through the years.
I found Quinn to be haughty, condescending, and very unlikeable. Little did I know that Quinn and her husband Ben Bradlee, former executive editor for the left-leaning Washington Post, were the gatekeepers of the Washington cocktail elites. "Anybody who was in anybody" in Washington had to go through Sally Quinn and her husband for approval.
But there was oh-so-much more to the now widowed Quinn. She has a new book entitled "Finding Magic; A Spiritual Memoir." In her book Quinn admits to murder through hex. You read that right. Quinn confesses to killing three people by means of putting a voodoo hex on them.
According to her memoir, she fist hexed a woman who was flirting with her boyfriend. The woman committed suicide after Sally's spell. Her next victim was a magazine editor who did a not-so-flattering profile of Quinn. Quinn takes credit for hexing the editor who got cancer and died. Her third victim was a psychic who told Quinn something she didn't want to hear.
After her third victim died, Quinn's son became ill, and believing it was karma for her spells, she stopped casting her black magic. Kudos to you, Sally! Those boomerang hexes can be hell.
Quinn admits in the book that she intentionally broke up her husband's first marriage with threats. Her elite friends have been encouraging her to put a hex on President Trump, but so far, thank goodness, she has refrained. Thanks for the self-discipline, Sally.
In an interview with USA Today Sally Quinn told of her families' psychic abilities and admitted that her mother had put hexes on two people who died. So it's "all in the family." She tells of watching the household staff in her family practice voodoo.
Quinn relates the story of her bother warning her that she needed to stop putting out bad energy through her hexes, but she didn't take him seriously. Now, let me get that straight….she is casting spells, but doesn't take her brother seriously?
When asked as to how she cast her hexes, she refrained from giving details. She did indulge that it was a ritual with candles and music and fire. When she told her story of friends asking her to hex Donald Trump, she admitted that she declined saying, "I don't do that anymore."
It's not that Sally minds killing people. It's just that she is afraid of the bad energy coming back on her. But I understand, Sally. It's a bummer when you cast a spell and it backfires. Oh, how we all know how that feels!
What I find to be more alarming than Sally Quinn's admission of dealing in the occult and practicing black magic is that it was common knowledge within her social circles and nobody seemed to mind. How many articles have you read about the Washington Post's former editor and his wife being involved in the occult? Probably none.
I wrote an essay this week concerning Hillary Clinton's public statement that she had wanted to put pins and needles in voodoo dolls of her media and political detractors. She stated this in a televised interview aside from writing it in her book. And yet there was little mention of it anywhere, even among so-called conservative columnists.
Why did Clinton even mention her inclination for voodoo spells? Because in Satanism, it is Lesser Magic to suggest that you want to curse someone. Insinuating a curse is an actual curse.
But where was the public and media outrage that a Democrat presidential candidate was even speaking of casting voodoo spells? There was none. You could almost hear a pin drop all across the media world.
And then there's the narrative of John Podesta and his spirit cooking. Podesta's story is too complicated to unravel in one essay, so I will save it for a rainy day. But Podesta is just another example of wickedness permeating through the social and political realms of Washington D.C.
Is it any wonder that we have chaos in Washington? Is it any wonder that John McCain came prancing into the Senate chambers gleefully and defiantly to cast a vote against righteousness? Is it any wonder that abortion has become the most important covenant to the Washington elite. The sacrifice of little innocent babies plays well with the diabolical characters within our nation's capital.
Evil nourishes pandemonium and anarchy. It is true; "Idle hands are the devil's workshop." And heavens knows there are thousands of idle hands among our lawmakers who are basking in their positions but doing absolutely nothing in terms of making law or defending the Constitution.
What's really scary is that these evil-doers are beginning to open up about their macabre and ghoulish lives. They are "coming out."
Washington D.C. is not a swamp. It is the portal to hell. These people made their deals with the devil, and we need an exorcism, not a swamp drain.
IS THE VOODOO PRIESTESS CRACKING UP?
WHO LET MARC SHORT IN THE WHITE HOUSE?

Meet JudyBeth!
I was introduced to you just today. I was thrilled to note that you worked for John Raese in 2010..i worked as his scheduler in 1984 against Rockefeller, he was inexperienced then but has always been a great candidate. I also am impressed by your communication skills. Do you mind detailing to me a bit more of your history and where you grew up. I, too am from St Albans and for some reason have a lot of friends that are a big part of the 63 million Trump voters.
People who wish to undermine America or are to stupid to see who they are associating with need to be informed.
Carolyn Stephens
Good to find someone willing to stand up to the corrupt left and its allies, the media. You are right on in both your comments and research backing up opinion.
I believe we have a last, historic opportunity to salvage this republic with Trump. It had almost slipped into oblivion on the pile of failed civilizations that litter the history of the world.
Lets see what the next 4 years bring. You keep on bringing it!
jim westfall
Judy, I read all of your posts. Your insights into what is actually happening in our society are uncanny. Thank God you will have at least the next 4 years to catalog the great things President Trump will do to help "right the ship".
Larry Hull
I love most of what you say. You seem to read my mind, express what I percieve in a coprehendable script. Thank you for sharing your well thought out views.
Thereon Miller
You do the hard research, seek the truthful answer, even if you don't like result at the bottom of the rabbit hole.
Share and inspire, an educator beyond the classroom.
Steve Gesse

The biggest game of the weekend – Liverpool vs. Arsenal was a shocking capitulation from the Gunners after Arsene Wenger benched their best player this season, Alexis Sanchez. Manchester United drew against Bournemouth to remain in 6th position while Arsenal slipped down to fifth. Victories for Tottenham Hotspur, Manchester City and Liverpool ensured that there is still some room to topple Chelsea who travel to the Olympic Stadium to take on West Ham United.
Middlesbrough dropped into the relegation zone after a defeat to Crystal Palace, while Watford and Southampton played out a seven-goal thriller. Swansea pulled off a last-minute winner against Burnley and Leicester continued their resurgent run of form since Claudio Ranieri's dismissal.
Artur Boruc outshone his counterpart, David de Gea, on Saturday as the Cherries travelled to Old Trafford. The keeper made all of six saves to salvage a point for Bournemouth after they were reduced to 10 men just before half-time.
The Polish keeper was calm and composed in the face of repeated attempts on his goal from the Red Devils and capped off his fine performance with a 77th-minute penalty save to hold Manchester United to a draw.

Extended Day programs at Forsyth encompass those hours before school from 7:00–8:00am (Before Care) and after school from 3:30–6:00pm (After Care), plus After-School Classes, League Sports, and childcare on "no-school" faculty work days.
Contact Deborah Lomax, Director of Extended Day, with any questions.
Programs & Hours
Before Care: schooldays, 7:00am–8:00am
After Care: schooldays, 3:30pm–6:00pm
Winter Break Camp: weekdays, 8:00am–5:00pm
Spring Break Camp: weekdays, 8:00am–5:00pm
Childcare on "No School" Faculty Work Days: 8:00am–5:00pm
After Care begins at 3:00pm on Thursdays at no additional charge (3:00–3:30pm only).
There is no minimum or long-term commitment for Extended Day programs. The fee structure includes an annual $50 registration fee per family, plus $8 per hour of actual usage, rounded up to the next hour. Winter & Spring Break Camps only are $10 per hour of actual usage, rounded up to the next hour.
Late pick-ups incur a $16 charge per half hour. Extended Day program registration and usage fees are billed through FACTS. Families who qualify for and receive tuition assistance receive 50% off Extended Day Program fees (Before Care and After Care), plus a percentage discount on League Sports fees.
Childcare is provided at no charge during a student's Parent/Caregiver-Teacher Conference.
After Care begins with attendance and a snack before students are sent off to any scheduled activities, including sports practices. Students not signed up for a scheduled activity play outside (weather permitting) or gather in classrooms or the Rand Center. After Care ends with a small second snack before final pick-ups.
After-School Classes further enhance a student's After Care experience. Seasonal sessions typically run 4–6 weeks; pricing is variable based on the subject area and program length. Offerings include (but are not limited to!) study hall, tennis, dance, golf, chess, and more, plus Girls on the Run each spring. Classes are taught at Forsyth by current and former faculty and staff members or outside partner vendors (examples include Frontenac Racquet Club, St. Louis Scott Gallagher, etc.).
A sample session schedule might look like:
Mondays:
Tennis: Pre-K & Junior-K
Tennis: Senior-K & Grade 1
Study Hall: Grades 1–6
Mad Science: Pre-K & Junior-K
Chess: Senior-K & Grades 1–4
Dance: Senior-K & Grades 1–2
Minecraft: Grades 3–6
Family may also arrange private art lessons, music lessons, and tutoring directly with Forsyth faculty members.
League Sports
Forsyth participates in the Clayton Recreation League; offerings include soccer, girls' volleyball, basketball, tee-ball, baseball, and softball. Practices are held after school at Forsyth; games are held at the Center of Clayton or Charles A. Shaw Park. Students in Pre-Kindergarten and Junior-Kindergarten participate in a soccer skills clinic with St. Louis Scott Gallagher at Forsyth. The per-season fee of $210 includes league fees and uniforms for season use.

Stephon Clark was shot 7 times from behind, private autopsy finds
The United States of America's police force is certainly trigger happy and although this expatriate writer has deep respect for them, this writer believes that they are happy to use their guns. Had America been civilized as all the Western World, the police would not be armed; they have to be armed because we have a criminal organization name NRA that spends millions of dollars to buy the government and the Supreme Court's soul. The Second Amendment to the Constitution is misinterpreted intentionally because of the enormous mount of money gun manufacturers bring to the country. Joe Smith is neither "A well regulated militia…" Nor is he working for the State – Let us not fool around here and call a spade spade. I offered to teach the Honorable Supreme Court Justices English so that they can understand what the Second Amendment actually says. America, you are truly a sick country. Expatriate Sabri G. Bebawi
The Sacramento man killed by police on March 18 was shot eight times and took up to 10 minutes to die, a forensic pathologist says.
by Jonathan Sperling / Mar.30.2018 / 10:34 PM ET / Updated 11:12 PM ET
Stephon Clark, an unarmed black man who was killed by Sacramento police officers earlier this month, was shot eight times, with nearly all of the shots striking him from behind, according to private autopsy results announced Friday.
Dr. Bennet Omalu, announcing the results of his autopsy at a news conference in Sacramento, concluded that Clark was shot seven times from behind on the right side of the body and once from the front. He added that Clark's death was not instantaneous, but "took anywhere from three to 10 minutes."
The autopsy was done at the request of Clark's family.
Omalu said any one of the bullets striking him from behind could have killed him. "Each one of these bullets independently possessed a fatal capacity," said Omalu, who is known for identifying and describing the first instance of chronic traumatic encephalopathy, or CTE, in professional athletes.
The first shot by Sacramento police officers hit Clark in the left side and back of the chest, with the bullet's propulsion probably forcing him to spin around so that his back faced the officers completely, Omalu said. The shot fired from the front struck him in the lower part of his left thigh, indicating that Clark was shot while he was either on the ground or falling close to the ground, according to Omalu.
Video from a police helicopter shows Clark, 22, running from the officers, then crawling away after being shot.
Omalu, who conducted the autopsy on Tuesday, further concluded that Clark's death was caused by a combination of blood loss, acute respiratory arrest and hypoxia, or a lack of oxygen reaching the brain.
According to police, two Sacramento officers fired 20 shots at Clark on the night of March 18 after responding to a 911 caller reporting a man smashing car windows. Believing Clark to be a suspect, officers chased him to his grandmother's backyard with the help of an overhead helicopter from the Sacramento County Sheriff's Department. Body camera footage shows the two officers, who have not been identified, shouting at Clark to stop and show his hands before one of them yells "Gun! Gun! Gun!" and both officers open fire. Later, Clark was found to have only been carrying a cellphone.
"These findings from the independent autopsy contradict the police narrative that we've been told," Benjamin Crump, an attorney representing the Clark family, said in a statement. "From the time this investigation began, statements provided by the Sacramento Police Department have proven to be self-serving, untrustworthy and unreliable. This independent autopsy affirms that Stephon was not a threat to police and was slain in another senseless police killing under increasingly questionable circumstances."
In an interview on March 22, Police Chief Daniel Hahn told NBC News that officers who engaged Clark had feared for their lives before the shooting.
"The officers responded to a call and ultimately were able to see the subject they believed was responsible for the breaking into the cars that they were there for," said Hahn. "They felt their lives were in danger and they fired."

A PRAYER FOR THE DYING FORMATS, & those who shall covet them…
By Decoy Spoon ⋅ November 1, 2008 ⋅ Post a comment

"The more things change, the more they stay the same" – Alphonse Karr
"You've got to fight for your right to party" – Beastie Boys
As our culture accelerates towards its inevitable cyber Zenith (or Nadir, as the case may be), we are seeing trends appear that have sociologists and futurists debating the pros and cons of our 21st Century high-speed living, and how it relates to our shifting understanding of ourselves and our place in the universe. Understandably, serious questions are being raised.
Are we psychically ready for the constant technological advancements? Are we mentally geared for the upgrades required to keep up with the deluge of gadgets and gizmos? Can we save a planet that is croaking under the weight of our mindless myopic decadence? Is Gaia on her deathbed? Can we find sustainable alternatives to our increasing need for energy? Will we ever cease the bloody war-games that underlie the economic rationalism and neo-conservatism of governments as they attempt to colonise the world? Will we ever wake up to the undermining of civil-rights as our liberties are abolished in the name of National Security? Will we see the Aging Population eventually give way to the first Immortal Population-where death becomes an optional extra for a bored, jaded public? Or, having developed natural immunities to all our existing medicines, will we see bacteria mutate from SARS and AIDS and Ebola into a new millennial plague? Will the current trend of pre-emptive surgery in men and women removing breasts and prostates so as to eliminate the threat of cancer in later life, lead to people suiciding so they'll never die of some godawful disease? After the demise of the Larsen Ice Shelves, will the entire Antarctic Peninsula melt into our rising oceans-and will the ensuing chaos birth countless new conflicts as the dislocated masses seek refuge on higher ground? Will the advent and inevitable proliferation of Directed Energy Weapons (DEW) help ensure an immaculate Police State in all major cities of the world-complete with no-go zones and militarised check-points next to all suburban shopping malls? As Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) is introduced as the new & improved bar-code system on all products and passports-will we be rendered nameless numbered drones; our every move traced and tracked; telling our sorry tales of how it seemed so harmless putting E-tags on our electric/solar cars? (in the end, we had no choice as all toll booths were automated and E-tag was compulsory… with Veri-Chip implants soon to follow). Will we create a microscopic Black Hole in our newly built particle accelerator, only to have it escape the chamber and start eating the very fabric of space time? Will nanotechnology supply us with self-replicating molecular machines capable of subatomic feats of healing and modification; that, if exposed, could start munching on Earth's matter in a colossal wave of Gray Goo? Are the Mayans correct, and we'll all enter a new apocalyptic Golden Age on December 21st 2012? Is the Rapture coming as the Christians believe-and the Great Tribulation will sort out the heathens from the heavenly? Will the other seasons of Who's the Boss? ever be released on DVD?
No matter how you cut it, the next decade will be one to watch. 'May you live in interesting times', the old Chinese curse says. And it is a curse, indeed. Things are speeding up, and converging, and some kind of crash is looming. Something has to give. So in the meantime we have the luxury of gorging ourselves and salving our anxiety with a vast array of online leisure activities. Namely: Downloading stuff. (And celebrity goss.)
Music, movies, pictures, porn, programs, games and comics. This is our new mantra. Our 21st Century raison d'être. Our guilty global pleasure. The new drug. And I partake of it whole heartedly. Broadband barbiturates. Online opiates. High-speed heroin. Cyber-Soma. The more nullifying the better. What do we want?-Oblivion! When do we want it?-Now!
But, I'd argue, as a Gen-Xer, this is nothing new. Generation-X were always pop-culture junkies. We rode the wave of late-70s/early-80s to late-80s/early-90s pop like surfing legends. And this was 'surfing' long before any internet associations with that word. We did it old-school. We may not have 'invented' the internet, but Gen-X have been the ones to refine it… reform it… hone it… sharpen it… and mould it into the slick indoctrinating beast it is today. It's grown in line with our imperatives. We willed this thing into existence. Like it or not, we are complicit.
File sharing you ask? Yep, us 80s kids invented that. We kept tape-manufacturers Casio and TDK in business twenty-five years ago. We also kept biro makers Bic and Artline and Kilometrico out of the red too, by adorning our mix-tapes with arty scrawl that personalised the journey for ourselves and our friends as we swapped them back and forth in the schoolyard. I still have boxes of tapes that I made (and from friends) that lie scratched and dusty and tired, due to their high-rotational history. Magic was/is on those tapes. And a big portion of my iPod is now lugging around their modern-day digital incarnations. All that has changed is the formats. Vinyl records and magnetic tape became CDs, which became binary code. And VHS/BETA videos became DVDs, which also, has become a download link.
The rise and availability of high-speed broadband, cheaper data storage, and Blogs, highlights the parallel story arc of file sharing and leeching in the last ten years; from pictures to songs to albums to games to movies. There is always a bigger file to download. One can never have enough giggage-in their download limit and the hard-drive.
But we do our best.
As the technology evolved so did our means of marking our territory and staking our claim on the developing landscape. We stole from FM radio; we rearranged and cut-up the existing formats of tapes and records; we tape-to-taped videos; we copied and swapped games for the Commodore 64 and Amiga 500; we lent friends comics and magazines; and we peaked at our fathers Playboy and Penthouse stash when our parents left the house.
Not much has changed.
In the 'Summer of Love' that was '99-2000, when Napster reigned, I managed to download 12 Gig of songs on dial-up!; which wasn't easy, for me. I'm sure others topped that quite easily, but hey, I was proud of myself. It was a cream dream for all music geeks. Obscure songs from obscure bands. Rare bootlegs. You name it. If it existed, it was likely to be found. I can still remember the first couple of mp3s I got: "The Israelites" by Desmond Dekker and The Aces; and The Dirty Three with Nick Cave doing a live version of Roy Orbison's "Running Scared". I was hooked in no time. And I didn't get a lot of sleep in those days. In fact, sleep and appetite were the only things reminding me I was still human. For the hours in between, I was Tron or The Lawnmower Man, finally immersed in the virtual utopian void I'd been longing for.
But nothing lasts forever…
When Napster folded in July 2001, the honeymoon was over. I toasted its demise with a (double) scotch, and milled around with the other losers online wondering what was next. Well, it didn't take long for our collective drive to win out. Necessity is the mother of invention, as they say. We'd tasted blood, and now we wanted more. So along came Morpheus-and AudioGalaxy-and Kazaa-and Soulseek… and we were back in business. Let the good times roll… again.
This time round, other things started catching my eye as I skulked through the bit stream. So, adding to the list of songs being pilfered, were TV shows. Episodes of Seinfeld, to be specific. They were anywhere from 20 to 40 Meg per episode, which was HUGE back in the early days of dial-up. It took me half a day to get one-if I was lucky. But I managed to get about fifty odd episodes, which I was chuffed with. The quality was crap, for the most part, but this was a big deal-TV shows!-I mean, what'll be next, movies?
Of course, there were always dudes out there getting and sharing movies. But, for me, on dial-up, it wasn't an option. I did get a couple. Austin Powers Goldmember, was one-and at the crappiest quality-which took me days.
Cut to present day, 2008-movies take me about 5-6 hours to get. One day (soon) it'll be instant.
Sometimes when I'm downloading these movies, it'll occur to me; Y'know, not much has changed. Because back in high-school, my friends and I took our love of movies to a new level.
We were hardcore film dudes. We watched films more than any other teenagers in our neighbourhood, I'd wager. Horror was our main bag. But we consumed equal quantities of Sci-Fi, Comedy, Drama, Thriller, and as many 'Cult' films as we could lay our hands on. You have to remember, a 'cult' section in the video store was a rare blossoming thing in those days, especially in Sydney's suburban west. If they had a copy of Suspiria or This Is Spinal Tap or Herzog's Nosferatu, you were doing well… but you could forget about fringier things like Liquid Sky or Mondo New York. Even Logan's Run was hard to find. And I had to order A Clockwork Orange from overseas and get it converted from NTSC to PAL-which was charged by-the-minute! Believe it. (Those darn kids don't know how good they got it, these days. We went to serious lengths, dammit)
Having said that; the crazy suburbs were home to a lot of classic old vids (some that even today still haven't seen wider release on DVD, eg: where the hell are all the classic Sho Kosugi films, like Revenge Of The Ninja or Pray For Death?!) And my friends and I had the foresight to capitalise on that situation.
How did we do that, you ask? Simple. We stole them.
That's right, baby. We engineered a scheme so devious, so brilliant, that it became the thing of legend (amongst us, anyway). It was a beautiful thing. For six months or so, maybe a year (I can't remember), we had our own internet before the internet. We had our own 'Summer of Love'. (With no monthly fees either.)
You see, back in those days, our main local vid store was Showstopper, and we spent hours there. Arvos, weekends, whenever-if we weren't at school, it was a good bet we were there. We knew every inch of that store. And we came to know every inch of their video cassettes too.
As the 80s came to a close, the 90s brought it's generation of security upgrades. One of these measures consisted of the implementation of thin metallic strips that were stuck on merchandise and beeped when passed through scanning boards that were stationed at the store exits. You know the kind I mean. They quickly became industry standard, and stores still use modern variations on this design. (These days though, an alarm goes off; an ink bomb explodes in your face; red lights flash; and you're hauled off to Guantanamo Bay-where they'll Taser your genitals while playing loud Limp Bizkit 24/7. So beware.)
Anyway, one of my friends (we'll call him, Dean; the other, who we'll call Andy, completes the mighty triumvirate) came up with a plan. We rent the movie, take it home and watch it… we remove the security strip, we rewind it, we return it, and while we peruse the other vids they put the 'de-stripped' video back on the shelves, and we flog it. Ingenuity at it's finest. We couldn't fail.
We each picked a movie to rent and our plan was in action. I can't remember what movies Dean or Andy chose, but I went with Escape from New York. In a few days time, it came time to return them, and phase two was in action. The shelves around the store were all about chest height, so they were the perfect cover to hide behind while we slapped the vid down our tracksuit pants, with an untucked t-shirt draped over the top and high-tail it out of there.
We were jubilant walking home that day. Our sneakers hardly touched the pavement. It was a victory for the little guys. We stuck it to the man. We'd gotten away with daylight robbery, literally. It was the heist of heists. We could do no wrong. We were demi-gods. We were men. Now, what film next?…
Insert Passage-of-Time/Montage here…[We see our heroes in Showstopper; eyes shifting from side to side; the dudes behind the counter serving other people; Andy and Dean nod to each other; videos are stuffed down pants; fake smiles are plastered on faces; and there are no beeps as they stroll out the door; then we see spinning vid covers (like newspaper front pages in the movies) of films like:
The Evil Dead/ Evil Dead II
The Stepfather
Alien/Aliens
The Omen
The Hidden
Red Dawn
Sex, Lies and Videotape
Creepshow
Ferris Bueller's Day Off
Drugstore Cowboy
The King of Comedy
Raw/Delirious
Midnight Run
The Boost
The Sure Thing
T.A.P.S]
(Now, we didn't steal all of those. Some were bought. I can't remember which. But between us, they all ended up in our collections in some way. So I added them for dramatic effect.
Thinking back, I'm sure we didn't steal that many. Memory distorts things with time. Hindsight isn't always 20/20. All I know is: we stole some movies for a time. And we got more than a few, so… I'll let you imagine the volume. This isn't an exact science.)
Within a few weeks, the movies were rolling in. We were making plans for the future. Maybe one day we'd open our own video store. Maybe just down the road from Showstopper. Maybe we could call it Showstopper II (- Son of Showstopper!), and over time the entire Showstopper video collection would dematerialise and rematerialise a few doors down in our store. It was a bold idea, but we were thinking big. Would they make the connection? Would they put two and two together when they began losing their clientele to the new video store down the road-run by teenagers no less?!
We'll never know where it would have ended, because it, um, ended.
They say: Absolute Power Corrupts Absolutely; and, like all of life's clichés, it is disgustingly true. We got greedy. We were blinded by our own power. We took things too far, and we paid the price. We thought we were being ballsy, but we were just being dumb.
Eventually we got to the point where we were not bothering to rent the movie first, to remove the strip. We'd sit at the McDonalds just up the road from Showstopper and decide which movies we wanted, then we'd walk down to the crime-scene and do the deed. We'd walk in, have a fake mozy round, sometimes split up, and find our respective films, and we'd open up the cases, take out the vids, and remove the strip in the store. Then, down the pants, and you know the rest…
Well, we got lazy. At first I think we were doing our best to dispose of the security strip, say, inside another unpopular vid that no one would rent, like: Yentl or C.H.U.D or Over The Top, or an Aussie war film like: Attack Force Z or The Odd Angry Shot. Be safe as houses in those babies. But in the end we were just shoving them behind the closest vid we could find; hearts pounding; adrenalin surging; OK, now let's get outta here. I'm sure some even went on the floor. We got sloppy. And the whole operation suffered. We were drunk on our own afterglow. We had no foresight. We were so fixated on our short term gains that we weren't seeing any of the long-term consequences. We didn't see what was coming.
If we had the luxury of perspective, maybe we would've seen the bigger picture. And it may've looked something like this:
Cut Scene, to: 'The Monthly Showstopper Staff Meeting' The manager addressing the troops: "Alright, now… next on the agenda is… OK, where are we?… oh, that's right. It's come to our attention that someone is stealing videos. Now, we don't know who it is, but we know how they're doing it. Some of you have found the security strips on the floor and on the shelves behind videos. And the cleaner said one of them choked-up the vacuum cleaner. So we figure they must be coming in, taking off the strips, and then thieving these things right under our noses. So, we're taking action. As of today, we've decided to put a second strip behind the title card underneath the plastic cover protector. This should smoke out the hoodlums behind this. Let 'em come in and take the bait. That'll show 'em. Are there any questions? No? OK, good, lets get to it… we're gonna work around the clock on this one. I wanna see some overtime put in on this. And keep your eyes peeled. We're gonna nail these jokers…"
We were doomed.
One day we were in there, looking for our films, and I'd decided to go with A Prayer for the Dying. (How ironic, eh? Who knew?) I don't know what Dean or Andy went with. I do recall Dean had acquired a large cardboard Hellraiser display stand, topped with a life-size Pinhead staring out menacingly; because Dean and Pinhead were standing at the exit as I went to walk out with A Prayer for the Dying in my pants. Andy was walking behind me. And as I walked through the scanners-BEEP BEEP BEEP BEEP!!!-our worst nightmare came true.
Looking back, I'm sure the looks on our faces was all the evidence they needed, but I tried to act weirdly surprised, like: 'Wha..?' And so they asked me to walk back through, which I did. Somewhere inside me, I was holding out hope that it was some shared hallucination, like I'd just dreamt the last few seconds, but of course-BEEP BEEP BEEP BEEP!!!-it went off again.
'Do you have a movie on you?', they asked.
'No', I lied. (I was stalling for valuable time. Delaying the inevitable.)
Luckily, the store counter was large, and as the staff walked around to confront me, I deftly removed the vid and balanced it on my sneaker and lowered it to the ground. Then, as the staff approached, I again acted weirdly surprised and bent down and picked up the vid and said something stupid, like: 'Oh, but this is here on the floor…'
They took the vid from me and we somehow made it out of there. Dean sadly carrying a huge cardboard demon under his arm on the way home. But the damage was done. It was a mortal wound. The show was over. The jig was up. I never went back.
Dean and Andy did though. They braved it a few days later, and they met with: 'Hey, tell your friend not to come here anymore. We know he was trying to steal that video…'
Which, of course, was true. But it still stung. The Summer of Love was officially over. What a bummer. Our plan was trumped. We'd been bested. And busted. Damn.
Well, we didn't steal anymore vids, but our love of movies continued undiminished. At school-between reading the latest issues of Fangoria and Gore Zone magazines-we kept up our traditional Movie Quiz at lunch and recess, where we took turns asking each other questions and the others would slap their hand down on the aluminium seat as the buzzer. 'OK, now, I'll give you the names of two leading actors, and I want you to tell me the name of the movie I'm thinking of, OK?… James Woods and John Savage' [BANG!] 'That would be the Oliver Stone film, Salvador'. 'Ohh, I'm so sorry, they did indeed star in that film together, but the film I was thinking of was the Harold Becker film The Onion Field.' 'Oh, come on, you were just thinking the opposite of whatever I said…' And it would roll on like that into our afternoons, laughing at each others creative line of questioning. The more obscure the better.
In class, we continued to make long elaborate jokes about our favourite films. We'd riff on actor's names-Chuck Norris became Charles Norris/ Mark Hamill became Marcus Hamill/ Lukas Haas became 'Lukas Haaaaaa…'. We wrote out lists of our favourite films, then score them together and see what averaged out as a collective Top Ten. We wrote stories together based around our favourite films. We drew little subversive cartoons that lampooned our favourite films. Andy even had a video camera, and we made our own five minute sequels to our favourite films (Hell, we made Die Hard 3 before Die Hard 3!). We pretty much invented our own language around films that no one else would understand. We would speak to each other in these overly dramatic voice-over voices, like the guy who did the old Roadshow Home Video trailers like: The Manitou and Enemy Mine. We watched movies, we taped movies, we swapped movies, we bought movies. We lived, breathed, ate, slept and dreamt fucking movies… all in our little suburban bedrooms that were effectively wallpapered in movie posters.
Ah, yes, the innocent/guilty days of youth…
Dean and Andy were cool guys. And I'm proud to have called them friends. Thank god we found each other in a neighbourhood that still celebrated the 70s Australian Dream of: 'Football, Meat-pies, Kangaroos and Holden cars'. Truth be told, they were far more hardcore into movies than I was. Even at 15, they had an encyclopaedic knowledge of film. I just tried to keep up. But my initiation into the world of film, was with those guys. They were my mentors. Through their eyes, they helped me gain an appreciation of good films, and bad ones. And I'm eternally grateful. They were ahead of their time. The schoolyard critics. Sure they kept up with the latest blockbuster releases of the time, but talk could shift in a heartbeat from Die Hard 2 and Dances With Wolves to films like Ordinary People and Blood Simple. From Woody Allen to 976-Evil. Heroes were people like: Bruce Campbell, Robert Englund, Sigourney Weaver, George Romero, Tom Savini, Michael Biehn, Bill Paxton, Terry O'Quinn (yep, Tez, dug the The Stepfather) and Mickey Rourke (if he made nothing else but Angel Heart, he would still be a legend in our eyes)-and they championed unsung actors like Dan Hedaya, Paul Gleason, Ronny Cox and J.T. Walsh.
You could walk up to Dean or Andy and say: "Lose the earring Michael… it's not you, it's definitely not you…" or "Mephistopheles is such a mouthful in Manhattan…" and they'd be quick on the draw with the next line.
And wherever they are, and whatever they're up to, I'm sure they still have some of those vids. I hope so, anyway. And I'm sure they're still keeping up with the world of film-marvelling at the career trajectories of certain actors and directors. Like: Charlie Sheen, from Platoon and Wall Street to Two and a Half Men. Arnie, from the Terminator to The Governator. It would all be grist for the mill. The jokes would be coming thick and fast. God bless 'em.
So for all you youngsters out there in J&B Hi-Fi and HMV collecting your third season of The OC or The Ghost Whisperer or Supernatural, have some consideration for that balding 30-something codger standing next to you, because they've probably been in this game a lot longer than you, my friend. They did the hard yards. They did the leg work. They're the ones who laid down their adolescent lives all those years ago, so you could enjoy the freedom of choice you all take for granted today.

It's a K-compact model, priced very reasonably and works just fine as long as you read the small print. Some folks don't read it and end up with a mess that they blame on the manufacturer. More about it later.
My new Keurig stands just under 12 inches high and fits nicely on the kitchen counter. Even with the lid up, it is still two inches clear from the upper row of the cabinets. Things can get slightly complicated if you place a drawer under it. This is the smallest brewer from the Keurig line with a reservoir. The K-compact has automatic shutoff that at times comes very handy. It meets my definition of being studio friendly.
Now on to the small print. You think coffee is always made by brewing? Well, there's brewing and there's pod brewing. To add to the confusion, the K-compact belongs to the latter category. That is, it's a Pod brewer and uses K-cup pods for its mission. Here they are.
K-cup pods are genetically different from K-cups and produce less waste, therefore are environmentally friendly. The problem is, you can't mix them. I've found out about this absolutely accidentally, while shopping online for the K-cups that work with my Keurig. Being big on a fine print, I noticed that a certain flavor of a K-cup is not compatible with my K-compact model. Starting digging in further, I found out why. Here now, a package of a Caribou flavor of K-cup pods. See what it says in the lower left corner? It's exactly what you should be looking for if you're blessed with a K-compact Keurig. 'Pod' is a keyword here.
This is just the matter of a compatibility. It's like Windows and Mac. To help with the confusion, I would have called them K-cups and K-pods, respectively. That is, if you ask me.
