Having lived through the crack hysteria of the 1980s, which launched the country into the horrors of mandatory minimum sentences, no-knock warrants, and the other delights of the "war" on drugs, I am continually amazed by the deeply empathetic coverage—and the deeply empathetic political response—to the opioid epidemic. Why, you'd almost think that some of the difference is About Race. But, as we know, nothing ever is About Race, so we must simply have evolved as a people in our attitudes toward drug addiction. However, you can count on Scott Walker, the goggle-eyed homunculus hired by Koch Industries to manage their Midwest subsidiary formerly known as the state of Wisconsin, to bring us some good old poor-bashing. From The Milwaukee Journal-Sentinel: Even though federal money remains available for providing health care to more Wisconsin residents, the GOP governor says he's not reconsidering his decision to skip that and forgo hundreds of millions of dollars from federal taxpayers. Instead, Walker is asking officials in President Donald Trump's administration to sign off on the governor's proposals to move more single adults off state BadgerCare Medicaid coverage and into the workforce. The centerpiece of those measures is the governor's plan to screen childless, able-bodied BadgerCare recipients for drugs. "Obviously, we were going to do it no matter what," Walker said of his plan. "But yes, the more we can push reforms that work for Wisconsin ... the more we can control our own destiny." This charming little weasel hasn't been off the government dime for decades. This is for all those fearful souls out there in Waukesha County who believe that impoverished youngsters are going through their pockets while they sleep. Drug-testing the beneficiaries of government programs is a proven waste of actual time and actual money. But as a campaign commercial, and as an excuse to degrade and demoralize those same beneficiaries, it's as reliable as the rain. In most places where drug-testing of this sort is in place, more people get thrown off programs for not taking the test than for testing positive. Tell me again what an aberration in Republican politics Donald Trump is. Respond to this post on the Esquire Politics Facebook page.

CLOSE Yes, Dan Stevens was actually on set during the big dance scene in 'Beauty and the Beast' — on stilts, no less. USA TODAY Emma Watson helped keep co-star Dan Stevens upright while shooting their ballroom scenes for Disney's new live-action film 'Beauty and the Beast.' (Photo: Laurie Sparham, Disney) NEW YORK — Disney's live-action Beauty was a beast at the box office, opening with an estimated $170 million in North American ticket sales and setting a new high mark for family movies. Beauty and the Beast blew past the previous record-holder for G- or PG-rated releases, according to studio estimates Sunday. Last year, Disney's Finding Dory debuted with a then-PG-best $135 million. Beauty and the Beast felled many other records, too. It's the year's top opening so far and a new best for March releases, and it ranks seventh for all time, not accounting for inflation. The film, made for about $160 million, is the latest effort by Disney to re-create one of its animated classics with live action. The makeover of the 1991 Oscar-winning film follows previous live-action remakes such as Alice in Wonderland, Cinderella, Maleficent and The Jungle Book. Many more are on the way, too, including Dumbo, Mulan, Aladdin and The Lion King. "Nostalgia is a very powerful driver for these films," says Dave Hollis, Disney's head of distribution. "There's an opportunity to see these beloved stories in a way that's never been seen before, but you get to build that on the foundation of something that's very familiar. "But you don't get to $170 million because of nostalgia," Hollis adds. "You have to ultimately make these movies great." Beauty and the Beast, starring Emma Watson and Dan Stevens, found widespread acclaim and some backlash for including what has been called Disney's first openly gay character. Josh Gad plays Gaston's sidekick, LeFou, who has a very brief "exclusively gay moment," as director Bill Condon described it, late in the film. Though many applauded the character's subtle twist as overdue progress, some derided it. An Alabama drive-in theater canceled showings. And after Malaysian censors required the scene be edited, Disney pulled the film from release there; an appeal will be heard this week. None of that dragged down the movie's massive opening. It took in $180 million overseas. Paul Dergarabedian, senior media analyst for comScore, says any backlash may have only helped Beauty and the Beast, which he predicts will eventually top $1 billion globally. "This was a real tempest in a teapot," Dergarabedian says. "This obviously had zero impact on the movie. ... I don't think that was going to dissuade anyone except the most narrow-minded from seeing this film." Beauty and the Beast also got a boost from good word-of-mouth and largely good reviews. Other studios stayed clear of the juggernaut. Last week's top film, Kong: Skull Island, slid to second place with $28.9 million. The King Kong relaunch has thus far earned $110.1 million domestically. The R-rated X-Men spinoff Logan, starring Hugh Jackman, added $17.5 million for third place ($184 million total). Jordan Peele's horror sensation Get Out slid to fourth with $13.3 million ($133.1 million). Faith-based film The Shack finished fifth with $6.1 million ($42.6 million). The only film that tried to open nationwide against Beauty and the Beast was the microbudget horror release The Belko Experiment, which earned $4.1 million. Danny Boyle's Trainspotting sequel, T2: Trainspotting, made its debut in five theaters in New York and Los Angeles, earning $180,000 for a strong per-theater average of $36,000. Final figures are expected Monday. CLOSE Rediscover the magic of this Disney classic in a live-action musical starring Emma Watson as Belle and Dan Stevens as Beast. With detailed attention to the animated original and an enchanting backdrop, this fairy tale has been brought back to life. USA TODAY NETWORK Copyright 2017 The Associated Press. All rights reserved.

A standard, non-negotiable fee communicated at lease inception and collected when the vehicle is returned. The fee, which can range from $300 to $600 depending on the manufacturer, is used to cover expenses associated with reselling the vehicle, including reconditioning and auction fees. If you purchase the vehicle at lease end, you will typically not be charged the fee although you may be charged a comparable purchase option fee. Most manufacturers will waive the lease disposition fee if you lease or purchase a new vehicle from the same brand at the end of the lease term. At the end of a lease term, the lessee has the option to purchase the vehicle at the pre-determined residual value of the vehicle plus, typically, an additional $300 to $600 fee called the Purchase Option Fee.

Bad credit loans are types of loans that people apply for if they have a poor credit history. This may happen because a person has never applied for credit at all — thus, there is no credit record yet, or a person borrowed money previously and had difficulties returning them — this affects the overall credit record greatly. But whatever the reasons are, bad credit loans are quite popular. To get a loan for bad credit, one will need to address a private lender, a pawnshop, or an online lending company. In other words, a firm that has a more liberal credit record policy. What is a hard money loan? A hard money loan is a type of loan with specific requirements for collateral. If a person wants to request a loan with more beneficial conditions he or she can present the property as approval of money refund. The name of this loan means that it is harder for banks to get funds from the sale of property than to receive money directly from borrowers. One of the common examples of hard money loans is a car title loan. What is a non-qm loan? A non-QM loan or a non-qualified mortgage loan is a type of loan which is widely used in the mortgage industry. These loans are created to help people who want to buy an object of real estate (usually a house) but do not qualify for the usual mortgage loan because of the strict criteria that exist in the US, such as a relatively high amount of income, small current debt, and absence of risky loan features. If you have a problem with one of those criteria, you have to look at non-QM. What do i need to get a loan? In order to get a loan from a bank, you must apply for it. The application must contain your personal information (you will also need a passport or driver's license to confirm your identity), information about your credit history and score. Moreover, you must provide information about your monthly income (make sure it is not below the minimum level) and the debt-to-income ratio. In addition, you will have to provide something as collateral, which is charged by the bank in case of non-payment of the loan. In some banks, you need to pay fees for sending and reviewing your application. What are discount points on a loan? Loan points that are often referred to as discount points, are types of payments that you give to your lender if you want to reduce your loan's interest rate. Technically, you buy these points - $1,000 each. That is why you may also hear someone calling this method "buying down the rate". With discount points, you have the chance to pay off less than you would without loan points. What is the principal in a loan? The principal is the sum that is given to a borrower after the loan is approved by the bank's employees. For instance, you might borrow a sum that equals 10,000 dollars, but after that, you will need to pay the interest rate as well. Moreover, there will be a breakdown of the whole sum for several months. Therefore you will have to return a different sum. Interest and additional expenses are not included in the term we are talking about. In this case, the principal is considered to be exactly 10,000 dollars (the sum that you have requested and the bank's employees have approved you). How to check loan status? There are several ways to check your loan status. First of all, you can contact your loan company and ask their customer service to track your loan status. You can do it by phone or via email. The second option is to check your loan status offline - this means that you will need to visit your loan company (or its branch) and speak directly to one of their loan officers. Finally, you can loan tracking services on your loan company's official site. What credit score is needed for a va loan? In the case when you want to take a VA loan, you will have to think in advance about what requirements should be met by you. One of them is having a certain credit score. This score is individually set in a specific bank, and it is for a specific loan, as well as your financial condition. The average values for various banks are usually 640 FICO or 740 FICO for VA loans with the best conditions. In general, there are quite loyal requirements for VA loans. So, the requirements for meeting a required credit score are usually quite easy. What are the types of loans? There are many ways to find the money for financing your purchases, education, new property, etc. Types of loans are divided into several categories, depending on what your purposes are. For instance, if you want to buy a pool, you will apply for a pool loan. The same goes for buying a new house - for this, and you will need a mortgage program. If you are planning a wedding, a home renovation, etc., you will apply for a personal loan. An auto loan is a loan for buying a new car. A student loan is a loan offer you will apply for to pay for your education. There are also home-equity loans, debt consolidation loans, payday loans, loans for small businesses, and more. What is a consolidation loan? A consolidation loan is a loan that can be described as a loan that a person takes to pay off another debt or some liabilities. Usually, a consolidated loan offers a possibility for a borrower to pay off his or her debts with lower interest rates and fees than in case if it would be done with paying off all small loans one after another. Such a loan is a very good way to get out from the debt circle to which a person can get by abusing credit cards or payday loans. A consolidation loan can be secured and unsecured. What is a personal unsecured loan? An unsecured personal loan is a loan which like the usual unsecured loan, does not require any collateral from the borrower, and the lender takes the decision on whether to give money based on the sole creditworthiness of the borrower. Therefore, by taking an unsecured loan, the borrower can take financial assets for house renovation or debt repayment without the risk of losing your property or money savings. However, the pros of unsecured loans have their price, which is usually higher interest rates, because banks do not like to risk too much. Also, the amount of money that a bank gives you can be smaller than it could be with a secured loan. What are the best online payday loans? Payday loans are the type of fast loans that one can apply for when they need money immediately. Usually, payday loan firms have a liberal credit history policy, so people address them for bad credit loans. The best online payday companies include MoneyMutual, BadCreditLoans, CashUSA. But before applying for a loan from payday loan companies, you need to know that usually, such organizations have high interest rates. ✅ Direct loan servicing repayment plans ✅ Get online loans ✅ Direct loan servicing repayment plans - with Zangocash Random offers for you Cash Aisle Loan term: 12 - 18 Months Loan amount: $500 - $2500 APR up to: 829 % Time to money: Next business day Good direct lender Bright Lending Loan term: up to 12 Months Loan amount: $300 - $2000 APR up to: 725 % Time to money: Next business day Direct lender Great Plains Lending Loan term: 4 - 30 Months Loan amount: $100 - $3000 APR up to: 449 % Time to money: Next business day Good direct lender Loan at Last Loan term: up to 10 Months Loan amount: $100 - $3000 APR up to: n/a Time to money: Next business day Direct lender Green Trust Cash Loan term: up to 10 Months Loan amount: $300 - $1000 APR up to: 725 % Time to money: Next business day Good direct lender American Web Loan Loan term: n/a Loan amount: $300 - $2500 APR up to: n/a Time to money: before 11 AM same day (ACH), after 11am next day (ACH), paper check (7 to 10 business Days) Direct lender Big Picture Loans Loan term: 4 - 18 Months Loan amount: $200 - $3500 APR up to: 699 % Time to money: Next business day Good direct lender Upgrade Loan term: 36 - 60 Months Loan amount: $1000 - $50000 APR up to: 36 % Time to money: 24 hours - 4 business days Direct lender Avant Loan term: 24 - 60 Months Loan amount: up to $35000 APR up to: 36 % Time to money: Next business day Good direct lender Freedom Plus Loan term: 2 - 5 Months Loan amount: up to $12000 APR up to: 30 % Time to money: 24-72 hours Direct lender Customers reviews Shari Lynch Urgent help in loan problem Zangocash saved my life when I had a problem with money because all other services asked more than one day to find a suitable loan program for me.

Late Payments of loans may result in additional fees or collection activities, or both. Each lender has their own terms and conditions, please review their policies for further information. Nonpayment of credit could result in collection activities. Each lender has their own terms and conditions, please review their policies for further information. Every lender has its own renewal policy, which may differ from lender to lender. Please review your lender’s renewal policy. Material disclosure APR Disclosure. Some states have laws limiting the Annual Percentage Rate (APR) that a lender can charge you. APR for installment loans, secure personal loans, tribal loans, home loans and car title loans range from 6.63% to 1386% and vary from the lender and the state, APR for personal loans range from 4.99% to 450% and vary from the lender and the state, APR range for small business loans from 7% to 30%and vary from the lender and the state. Loans from a state that has no limiting laws or loans from a bank not governed by state laws may have an even higher APR. The APR is the rate at which your loan accrues interest and is based upon the amount, cost and term of your loan, repayment amounts and timing of payments.

Share. PC and PS3 players will no longer be able to shoot at each other directly. PC and PS3 players will no longer be able to shoot at each other directly. It looks like speculation about how PlayStation 3 owners will fare against the dedicated PC community of Counter-Strike players in Valve's upcoming Global Offensive can stop. Joystiq reports that, according to Valve's Chet Faliszek, the cross-platform support originally announced last year will no longer be included. Over the course of the closed beta test of Global Offensive through Steam, Valve eventually realized the need to update each version of GO separately on each platform took priority over a system where PS3 and PC players could headshot each other with AKs. "The beta has proved we want to update not just the beta, but the game itself post-launch frequently on the PC," Faliszek told Joystiq. "To do that we need to separate the platforms so one doesn't hamstring the other." Is there any chance cross-platform play might eventually make it into the game later on in the development process? According to Faliszek, "the beta gave us data for the need to update more frequently – if it settles down [cross-platform play] might happen, but that is a big might and not something we are planning on." The closed beta test of Counter-Strike: Global Offensive was recently given a large update, adding in more maps and weapons you can see in the videos below. How do you feel about the loss of cross-platform play in Counter-Strike?

Randy Wayne Schekman (born December 30, 1948) is an American cell biologist at the University of California, Berkeley[6] and former editor-in-chief of Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences.[1][7][8] In 2011, he was announced as the editor of eLife, a new high-profile open-access journal published by the Howard Hughes Medical Institute, the Max Planck Society and the Wellcome Trust launching in 2012.[9] He was elected to the National Academy of Sciences in 1992.[10] Schekman shared the 2013 Nobel Prize for Physiology or Medicine with James Rothman and Thomas C. Südhof for their ground-breaking work on cell membrane vesicle trafficking.[11][12] Early life [ edit ] Schekman was born in Saint Paul, Minnesota, to Alfred Schekman, an electrical engineer and inventor and Esther (Bader) Schekman,[13] In the late 1950s his family moved to the new suburban community of Rossmoor, located in Orange County next to Long Beach. He graduated from Western High School in Anaheim, California, in 1966.[14] He received a BA in Molecular Sciences from the University of California in Los Angeles (UCLA), in 1971. He spent his third year at the University of Edinburgh in Scotland, as an exchange student.[1][15] He received a PhD in 1975 from Stanford University for research on DNA replication working with Arthur Kornberg.[16] After joining the faculty at University of California, Berkeley, he was promoted to Associate Professor in 1984 and Professor in 1994. Research [ edit ] Since 1991, Schekman has been a Howard Hughes Medical Institute Investigator,[17] Division of Biochemistry and Molecular Biology, Department of Molecular and Cell Biology, at the University of California, Berkeley. The Schekman Lab at that university carries out research into molecular descriptions of the process of membrane assembly and vesicular traffic[18] in eukaryotic cells[19][20] including yeast.[21] Before that, he was a faculty member with the now disbanded Department of Biochemistry at the same university. Awards [ edit ] In 2002, Schekman received the Albert Lasker Award for Basic Medical Research[22] and Louisa Gross Horwitz Prize of Columbia University along with James Rothman for their discovery of cellular membrane trafficking, a process that cells use to organize their activities and communicate with their environment.[23] In 2008 he was named the first Miller Senior Fellow of the Miller Institute at the University of California Berkeley. He was awarded the Massry Prize from the Keck School of Medicine, University of Southern California, in 2010. Schekman is also a member of the Selection Committee for Life Science and Medicine which chooses winners of the Shaw Prize. Schekman was elected a Foreign Member of the Royal Society (ForMemRS) in 2013. His nomination reads: Using a brilliantly conceived genetic screen, Schekman isolated sec mutants that accumulate secretory pathway intermediates, he cloned the corresponding genes and he established biochemical reactions that faithfully reproduced specific secretory pathway events. These studies transformed the secretion field, previously descriptive and morphological, into a molecular and mechanistic one. The cell-free reactions that Schekman established led to his isolation of the Sec61 translocation complex, the (COPII) vesicle coat complex, and the first purified inter-organelle transport vesicles. The Sec proteins are strikingly conserved and the trafficking mechanisms that Schekman discovered are at the heart of neurotransmission, hormone secretion, cholesterol homeostasis and metabolic regulation.[3] Schekman, Thomas C. Südhof, and James Rothman were awarded the 2013 Nobel Prize for Physiology or Medicine "for their discoveries of machinery regulating vesicle traffic, a major transport system in our cells".[11] Schekman "has already said he will donate his share of the prize money, $400,000, to create an endowment for the Esther and Wendy Schekman Chair in Basic Cancer Biology at UC Berkeley. Schekman's mother and sister, for whom the post is named, both died of cancer." [24] In July 2014, he was awarded with the Shechtman International Leadership Award at SIPS 2014/Shechtman International Symposium in Cancun, Mexico, for his remarkable contributions to scientific innovation in academia.[25] Open-access science [ edit ] In December 2013, Schekman called for academic journal publishing reform and open access science publication by announcing that his lab at the University of California, Berkeley would no longer submit to the prestigious closed-access journals Nature, Cell, and Science, citing their self-serving and deleterious effects on science.[26] He has criticized these journals for artificially restricting the number of publications accepted to drive up demand.[26] In addition, Schekman says the journals accept papers that will be cited often, increasing the prestige of the journal, rather than those which demonstrate important results.[26] Schekman has said the prestige and difficulty of publishing in these journals sometimes cause scientists to cut corners or pursue trends, rather than conduct research on important questions. Schekman is the current editor of eLife, an open access journal and competitor to Nature, Cell, and Science.[26] Papers are accepted into eLife based on review by working scientists, similar to Nature, Cell, and Science.[26] Access to accepted papers is free.[26] References [ edit ]

Task Cards are so Versatile, Even in Middle and High School! They are great because students feel they have a choice in which task they do first and in middle school this is a great way to engage students. Another benefit of task cards is that students do not feel overwhelmed by worksheet after worksheet of problems to do. It breaks up the day, week, or month. Read below about 9 ways you may use task cards. ~ 9 Ways To Use Task Cards ~ 1. Centers or Stations. Set up multiple stations with task cards you wish the students to complete. Students work and rotate through the stations and the respective tasks you set up. Stations or Centers may be set up with 4-5 specific stations on the tasks you wish students to complete with white boards, recording sheets, or notebooks. The number of stations may be determined by the time students are in your class . Students may record their answers and rotate through the stations for a specific amount of time that you designate. Students may also work on a station you specify if you do not wish for them to rotate through stations. For example, one group may need to improve their skills on "Number Sense" tasks, so they work in the "Numbers" Station, another group may need to improve their skills on "Pythagorean Theorem", therefore, they work in the "Pythagorean" Station. This could be done weekly, bi-weekly, or monthly, for middle school or high school students. Stations may also be set up as 'self-checking' stations where an answer key is available for students to check their work. However you set up stations or centers, task cards are fantastic for this purpose. The above photo shows how you may set up tasks or challenges in a small album to keep directions, task challenges, and cards together. 2. Game Day. Hold a game day once a month and allow students to choose which activity they wish to do. Have the task cards in small photo albums, as demonstrated in the above photo, with the answers in the back, dry erase markers, and small white boards. Let students work on the tasks they wish to complete. For example, one year, I had students choose from the topics I had set up which had been taught the past several weeks and they were going to be tested on, for example factoring tasks, 2 step equation tasks, order of operation tasks & percent-decimal-fraction tasks. I would lay the tasks, white boards, bins of markers, and erasers on a table and let students know which tasks were available. Students then could work in small groups or individually and work through the tasks they chose - this was a great way to review and reinforce their learning. If a student or students needed to complete work or needed more review in a certain area, I’d suggest they use that time to complete work (I had extra copies of the work they needed to complete during this time) and/or I’d suggest a specific task I wanted them to work on and with which group. This is a great way to build on student’s knowledge, skills, and encourage them to complete assignments especially in middle school. 3. Starters. Use task cards as ‘starters’. Choose 1 or 2 tasks for students to do at the beginning of each class. Check for understanding after they have time to complete the starter. Another option for starters or classwork is for all students to get 1 task card/1 problem at the beginning of class, solve the problem, and then 1-2 students per day (rotate around the room over the course of a month) shares the problem and how they solved it. Another option when teaching units with starters is for students to write their problem and solution on a large poster paper that is posted in the room. Students later during the teaching of a particular unit have a day or time frame you select where they review everyone’s problem and solution and make any revisions they feel necessary to their own work and/or others work. The starter tasks coincide with the unit being taught or focuses on skills students need to be successful in the unit being taught at the time. The work is also reviewed by the teacher and discussed. 4. Exit Tickets or Spiral Review. Cut the tasks apart and have students complete a problem a day at the end of class. This could even be done every day with exit tickets by students solving one task card a day. Students write their name on the task card and answer on the back of the task card, or on a recording sheet for the week. As with starters, the tasks used for Exit Tickets relate to the unit being taught or on skills students need to master in your class. Another option for spiral review is to have students complete a card or a half sheet of task cards when you are teaching a unit. For example, students may need to review exponents when you are teaching Pythagorean Theorem, therefore, you may review exponents with a few task cards or a sheet of tasks to refresh students' skills as a mini-lesson. It’s a way of mini-reviewing every week or everyday so students retain what they’ve learned. 5. Key or Flip Book. As seen in the photo above, print task cards, laminate them if you like, punch holes in one corner, and secure task cards with a metal key ring or a string to create "Key" or "Flip" Books. Students can flip through the problems and solve them on key skills they need to master. They may solve on a recording sheet, on notebook paper, in interactive journals, or small white boards. One option is to set up a self-checking area where students check their answers after they solve the problem. Another way to keep students working is for students who finish their work early then select a flip book to work on. The key is to have a flip book area already set up with task cards you wish for them to work on. Students may even keep a 'log' on which 'Key' or 'Flip' books they have completed. As you teach new units add more flip books so there are always tasks ready for students. 6. Musical Tasks. This option is very similar to Musical Chairs, yet, no one loses a seat and it is integrated with rotating stations. Set cards out, one on each desk. Have students solve the problem while playing music on low. Time the students as they work on the problem (2-3 minutes depending on the task and your students), when the music stops, they move to the next desk, and start the next task when the music starts again. This process continues while students rotate through all the tasks. One way students may record their answers is to have a recording sheet like with the 'Let's Play 24 Challenge Game' they take with them from desk to desk that is numbered matching the task card number or they could write answers in their notebooks. Students later compare their solutions and how they solved the problems. Or if you don’t want to play music, call out ‘scoot’, ‘switch’, or another catchy phrase when students switch stations. You may also have tables set up and 4-5 task cards at each table students work in teams to solve, then they switch tables. Allow enough time for students to solve the problems. 7. CLUE. This option is a way to integrate student's input with stations or centers. With CLUE Stations, have tasks laid out on tables in 3-4 stations. At the stations are 2 sheets - recording sheets and a ‘CLUE’ sheet. The ‘CLUE’ sheet may be a piece of notebook paper with the word ‘CLUES’ written at the top for students to fill out. Students write in clues or tips to solve the problems, the next student looks over the previous students' or groups' clues and then solves tasks and records their answer on their own recording sheet along with leaving more clues. The 'Clues' sheet stays at the respective station. Some example of clues may be (on a volume task) – ‘with this formula you do not cube anything’ or ‘remember Pi is infinite, Pie is not’ or another useful tip to help students solve the task, yet, not give them the answer. 8. As Homework, Classwork, Quizzes. As seen in the above photo, print a page or cut a page in half of the task cards and let students complete them as homework, as classwork, or as a quiz. Or print the cards front and back on a sheet of paper, let students turn in the paper at the end of the week as their homework assignment. Many of my task card products have a set solely for 'test prep' along with some word problems to prepare students and allow them practice for testing and are very useful as quizzes, classwork, homework, in stations, and more. 9. Let's Play 24 Challenge. The ‘Let’s Play 24 Challenge’ is a great way for students to use task cards and a recording sheet. With this challenge the task cards are placed in a pile on a table, students get up, select a task, go to their seat, solve a problem, record their answer on the 'Let's Play Recording Sheet', then put it back on the table, select another problem, go back to their seat, solve the next task, record their answer, etc, until they’ve solved all 24 challenges. I set it up where students work in small groups on the task challenges. This is a great way to incorporate movement in the class and for students to feel they have a choice in which problems they do first. Another option if you do not wish for students to get up and down, is to group students in small groups, give each a set of task cards and allow them to work together on the '24 Challenges' – not one solving and another copying, but work together and solve the problems. You may get Numerous 'Let's Play 24 Challenges' for middle school & for Pre-Math 1 students here - Let's Play 24 Challenge Math Task Cards. Please note: More Task Cards will be added as I continue to create more 'Let's Play 24 Challenges'. One option with all uses of the task card activities discussed above is to have the answer key handy (unless it’s a quiz, homework, or graded classwork) so students can check their work. Most of the activities above may be set up as self checking stations/activities if you want them to check their answers. Students have an answer key to check their work at the end of the task card flip books, back of an album of tasks, or they rotate to a station when finished and check their work at a 'task challenge checking station'. Or you may have an answer key handy so when you walk around the room you can quickly check their work and/or answer questions students may have. As with all of these tasks, I suggest explaining your expectations to students on how you wish for them to utilize task challenges within your classroom. I hope you enjoy the article and the many ways you may use task cards especially in middle school and high school.

Denver has a parking problem. The problem is that everyone wants free parking and they want the city to provide it. The problem is that we’ve written free parking into the zoning code in the form of parking minimums for all new developments outside of downtown. The problem is that we’ve built our lives on the theory that every place we go will have abundant free parking. We’ve even built our neighborhoods with the expectation that we’ll always have convenient free parking on the street in front of our homes and businesses. But why is this a problem? Why shouldn’t we expect free and abundant parking everywhere throughout the city? Is this not America? Do we not have freedom and cars? Did our founding fathers not say we are entitled to life, liberty, and the parking space in front of our house? I’m glad you asked. *pulls up podium* *starts slide projector* *clears throat* Parking is not the solution to our woes, it is the cause of our traffic. Parking is why our streets are packed with cars. After all, why take the bus when there’s free parking right out front of my destination? Why walk to the neighborhood shop when I can easily park at the mega-lot in front of the big box store? Why ride my bike to work when the building has a multi-story garage just waiting to be filled and is otherwise empty and wasted space? In summary: parking encourages driving, which creates traffic. Traffic clogs our streets because there is little incentive to use other modes or find alternate destinations. Stop with the parking and the traffic will be reduced.

You might have gone through your kitchen pantry and removed all of the toxic foods, and then purged toxic cleaning products from under the sink, but what about your laundry room? Some of the most chemical-laden products live there, yet it’s the last place people tend to think about. Detergents definitely give cause for concern, but this article will focus on another laundry product you might not even regard as a hazard. Are dryer sheets toxic? It’s almost impossible to walk through a residential neighborhood these days without catching the familiar waft of fabric softeners. The problem is, these pleasing scents actually come from a blend of toxic chemicals that have escaped regulation and are silently contributing to a variety of health problems from skin irritations and asthma to cancer, making their way into your body through your skin and lungs. The full spectrum of their effects on humans, animals, and the environment is largely unknown—because it hasn’t been studied. The problem is, you’re not exposed to single chemicals but rather complex mixtures of chemicals. Fragrances alone contain thousands of compounds with established risks to our immune, endocrine, respiratory, and neurological systems—and that’s only one component of the noxious brew. Is Your Dryer Vent Emitting a Noxious Cloud? In the first study of its kind, in 2011 University of Washington Professor Anne Steinemann analyzed the chemical compounds found in laundry dryer emissions. She identified more than 25 VOCs (volatile organic compounds), with the highest concentrations being acetaldehyde, acetone and ethanol. Some of these VOCs are classified by the EPA as “hazardous air pollutants,” and two (acetaldehyde and benzene) are classified as carcinogens—unsafe at any level of exposure. (1, 2, 3) Many fabric softeners also contain quaternary ammonium compounds (“quats”) and imidazolidinyl, both known to release formaldehyde. Quats cause a variety of asthma-like symptoms and even respiratory arrest in a small percentage of sensitive people. These are dangerous chemicals you definitely don’t want filling your family’s airspace or venting into the outdoor air! In Steinemann’s analysis, none of the VOCs were listed on any product label, and only two were listed on associated MSDS (Material Safety Data Sheets). Consumers often believe MSDS to be authoritative documents, but in reality neither the US Food and Drug Administration nor the Consumer Product Safety Commission require individual fragrance ingredients to be listed on labels or MSDS. (4) Therefore, there is no way for you, as a consumer, to know these agents are present. Many of the “greener” dryer sheets were found to be just as toxic as conventional dryer sheets—no wonder 83 percent of fabric softeners receive an abysmal D or F rating by the Environmental Working Group. (5) Thanks to the work of Dr. Steinemann, we now know fabric softeners contain a distressing array of compounds—methanol, butane, pentane, linalool, limonene, benzyl acetate, camphor, chloroform, A-terpinol, and others—the likes of which never appear on product labels. (6) If you’re thinking these chemicals might off-gas at levels too low to cause harm, think again. Some are actually proving more dangerous at lower levels than at higher levels, and all of them certainly contribute to your overall toxic load. Fragranced products—especially air fresheners, dryer sheets, and perfume—are among the products with the largest number of chemicals, in the highest concentrations. Fragrances can trigger skin irritation or asthma. Some are shown to mimic estrogen, stimulating the growth of breast cancer cells in the lab. (7) Endocrine disrupting chemicals cost the US more than $340 billion each year in healthcare costs and lost productivity. (8) Limonene is a lung irritant, and benzyl acetate is linked to pancreatic cancer. Benzene is particularly scary—this poisonous chemical is linked to anemia and blood cancers such as leukemia, as well as being a known endocrine disruptor. When pregnant animals breathe benzene, they experience low birth weight offspring, delayed bone formation, and bone marrow damage. It’s not known whether benzene disrupts fertility in men or produces birth defects in human children, but it’s so toxic that Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) actually recommends removing clothing that may have become contaminated it—so how is it okay to have benzene in our laundry? (9, 10, 11) Making matters worse, fabric softeners are engineered to last, incorporating tenacious chemicals that leave a residue on your clothing that never completely washes out. This posits the question—do they last as long in your body as on our clothes? Your guess is as good as mine, but I can tell you the human body’s detoxification pathways are already being taxed beyond belief, and these chemicals only make matters worse. These chemicals aren’t just doing a number on us humans. VOCs like benzene and toluene are also toxic to birds, including those you have as pets. In studies, mice exposed to fabric softener emissions experience sensory and pulmonary irritation and airflow limitation. Very little science exists about their health effects on wildlife, but significant problems can just about be guaranteed. (12, 13, 14) Scents That Make NO Sense “If they’re coming out of a smokestack or tail pipe, they’re regulated, but if they’re coming out of a dryer vent, they’re not.” ~ Anne Steinemann (15) Scent is the most powerful of our senses, hard-wired into the most primal parts of the brain and inextricably connected to emotion and memory. Industry capitalizes on our powerful attraction to fragrance in order to sell all manner of products, from medications to soap, nail polish and paper—even industrial products such as paint and varnish. “Scent branding” lures people in like bees to honey. (16) Ambient scenting in retail spaces has been shown to increase purchases and make people stay longer. Of the more than 5,000 different ingredients used by the fragrance industry, only about 1,300 have actually been tested for safety. The majority are derived from petroleum and coal tar. Because toxic exposures are so ubiquitous today, many individuals have developed chemical sensitivities. Scented products are known to cause eye and respiratory irritation, asthma, contact dermatitis, migraines, and even seizures. In one national survey, 30 percent of Americans reported irritation from scented products in general, 19 percent reported adverse effects from air fresheners, and 10.9 percent report irritation from scented laundry products vented outside. (17) Fragrance in the workplace is being called “the new secondhand smoke.” The average consumer is as uneducated about the dangers of synthetic fragrance products as the average nonsmoker was about the risks of secondhand smoke decades ago. (18) Some fragrances are added just to counter noxious smelling ingredients, so you might not even detect the scent. Many of these compounds cross your blood-brain barrier and have psychoactive properties at very low levels, and some are neurotoxic. How can manufacturers get away with this? Under current laws, industry is not required to disclose all of the ingredients in laundry and cleaning supplies—and they really get a pass when it comes to fragrances. The fragrance industry is allowed to “self-regulate” through a trade association known as the International Fragrance Association (IFRA). What little testing they do only involves skin reactions, not neurotoxicity, immunotoxicity or anything else. 10 Eco-Friendly Tips for Soft, Fresh Static-Free Clothes If you aren’t willing to risk your health for the sake of static-free clothes, then consider some natural options that accomplish the same thing without posing any risks to you, your pets, or the planet. Commercial dryer sheets tend to clog up your dryer’s lint screen, making your dryer less efficient—not to mention clogging up landfills—but the following human- and environment-friendly alternatives will keep your clothes feeling soft and fresh without gumming up the works or adding to your body’s toxic load. Line Dry: Dry your clothes naturally on indoor or outdoor drying racks. Remove While Slightly Damp: Dry clothes at a lower temperature and remove them from the dryer before they’re completely dry. This remaining moisture helps prevent static cling. Shake, Shake, Shake: Once out of the dryer, giving your clothes a good shake helps remove any remaining static. Separate the Synthetics: Launder natural and synthetic fabrics separately, as synthetics (nylon, rayon, etc.) are responsible for most of the static. A dryer full of natural fiber garments is less likely to come out all staticky—particularly if not overdried. Synthetics often air dry quickly. Aluminum Foil: Several sources report that placing a wad of aluminum foil in the dryer with your clothes helps eliminate static. Baking Soda: Baking soda works as a fabric softener by softening the water (changing its pH). Try adding one-quarter to one-half cup baking soda to your wash cycle. White Vinegar: Vinegar can also work as a fabric softener, especially if you have mineral rich “hard” water. Try adding one-half cup to the wash or rinse cycle. In the rinse cycle, vinegar will additionally reduce static cling. Vinegar and Essential Oils Spray: Fill a spray bottle with one cup of white vinegar and 1.5 teaspoons essential oil, such as eucalyptus. Shake well and then apply 10 to 15 squirts to your wet clothes before starting the dryer. The vinegar smell will be gone when the clothes are dry. Crunchy Betty recommends eucalyptus oil, but geranium, citrus, lavender, mint, and pine are other options. Homemade Dryer Sheets: It’s not difficult to make your own eco-friendly, cost-effective dryer sheets out of old dish towels, bed linens, t-shirts or other cotton fabrics. Visit View From the Fridge or Wellness Mama for instructions. There are also reusable, eco-friendly, static-eliminating dryer sheets on the market today. Dryer Balls: Dryer balls made from natural fibers (typically wool) are a super cool option. They wick out moisture and create air space between your clothes as they tumble around, reducing drying time and lowering the electrical charge that accumulates when fabrics rub against each other, thereby reducing static cling. Just like with homemade dryer sheets, you can dab them with a few small drops of essential oil. Let the oil fully soak into the dryer balls for ten to 20 minutes before using them. You can now obtain dryer balls from numerous sources, but why not make your own? Healthy Living has a popular how-to page. If you don’t have dryer balls and don’t feel like making your own, try throwing in an old sweater with your load—it works the same way. The Homemade Experiment has a nice post with all sorts of natural laundry tips—including homemade fabric softeners and dryer balls.

Printing views Share appointments with macOS Calendar Export, import, exchange Using the Task Board (Kanban) Keyboard Shortcuts Slack and critical tasks About Slack or „float” Slack or „float” is the amount of time that a task can slip before it affects another task or the project's finish date. Use the „Early Start”, „Early Finish”, „Late Start”, „Late Finish”, „Start Slack”, and „Finish Slack” fields to analyze project schedule delays and find available slack in your schedule. Find free slack in your schedule Choose „Task Sheet” (or any other task view with a table portion) > „Schedule Table” in the „Views” toolbar icon. Review the values in the „Free Slack” and „Total Slack” column. Note Slack values may also indicate a schedule inconsistency. For example, a negative slack value occurs when one task has a „Finish-to-Start” dependency with a successor task, but the successor task has a „Must Start On” constraint that is earlier than the end of the first task. About critical tasks By default, iTaskX defines a task as critical if it has zero days of slack. However, you can change this definition and make a task critical if it has, for example, one or two days of slack. Making a task with slack critical can be helpful if you want to be alerted to tasks that are becoming critical when you still have some buffer. Slack is determined by the early finish and late finish dates of the tasks in your schedule. An early finish date is the earliest date that the task could finish, based on its start date and scheduled duration. A late finish date is the latest date that the task can finish without delaying the project finish. The difference between early finish and late finish dates determines the amount of slack. For critical path tasks (tasks that have no slack), the early finish and late finish dates are identical. Set the slack which defines a task as critical Choose „Edit” > „Project Options…” or use the toolbar icon. Click on the „Calculation” tab and enter the new slack value. Press „OK” to leave the „Project Options” sheet. Highlight critical tasks In the „View Options and Styles” window activate the „Indicate Critical Tasks” check box. Note By default, critical tasks are marked red. To use a differnt color change the „Attention” color in the „View Options and Styles” window . Shorten the critical path If you want to bring in the project finish date, you need to bring in the dates of your critical path tasks. This is also known as crashing a project. To do this: Shorten the duration or work on a task on the critical path. Change a task constraint to allow for more scheduling flexibility. Break a critical task into smaller tasks that can be worked on simultaneously by different resources. Revise task dependencies to allow more scheduling flexibility. Set lead time between dependent tasks where applicable. Schedule overtime. Assign additional resources to work on critical path tasks. Note If you bring in the dates of your critical path, a different series of tasks could become the new critical path. There is always one overall critical path for any project schedule. The new critical path would then become the series of tasks you track more closely to ensure the finish date you want. © Techno-Grafik Christian Lackner eU.

Children react beside a dead body under rubble at a site hit by what activists said were two airstrikes by forces loyal to Syria's President Bashar al-Assad in Douma in eastern al-Ghouta, near Damascus August 3, 2014. REUTERS/Bassam Khabieh BEIRUT (Reuters) - Air strikes by Syrian government forces in the eastern suburbs of the capital Damascus killed at least 64 people at the weekend, a monitoring group said on Tuesday. Bombardments, gun battles and executions regularly kill over 150 people a day in Syria’s three-year-old conflict, but the toll from the air strikes was especially high. The Britain-based Syrian Observatory for Human Rights, a monitoring group that tracks violence through a network of sources in Syria, said the attacks occurred in the areas of Kafr Batna and Douma in the eastern outskirts of the city. According to the Observatory, over 170,000 people have died in Syria’s war, which is increasingly threatening to spill over into Lebanon where four days of clashes have pitted Lebanese soldiers against Sunni militants seeking to overthrow Syrian President Bashar al-Assad.

JCCNS Jewish Book Month Speaker Series goes virtual | InSights InSights A Blog by Shelley A. Sackett Post navigation ← The 1938 Munich Agreement Is Unmasked in Gloucester Stage Company’s Inventive ‘The Battle Not Begun’ Gloucester Stage Company Serves Up Full-Bodied Blues in ‘Paradise Blue’ → JCCNS Jewish Book Month Speaker Series goes virtual Posted by Shelley A. Sackett 0 Jason Rosenthal, seen with his late wife, Amy, will open the series on Oct. 6. by Shelley A. Sackett MARBLEHEAD – With hurricane season, daylight savings time and the election looming just around the corner, we could all use an engaging and stimulating indoor activity to look forward to during these trying COVID-19 times. To the rescue is the 2020 virtual Jewish Community Center of the North Shore’s Jewish Book Month Speaker Series with a line-up of 12 outstanding authors who will literally travel right into your living room and share their books. “Books are a way into people’s souls. Arts and culture are a non-threatening way for people to have a Jewish identity,” Suzanne Swift, Jewish Book Council Director of Author Network, told the Journal. JBC provides resources and support to Jewish organizations, including the JCCNS. From Tuesday, Oct. 6 through Sunday, Nov. 29, the annual JBM speaker series offers an especially broad selection of genres and topics, including memoir, history, fiction, humor and – of course – food. JBM chair Diane Knopf acknowledges there is a silver lining to mounting the series during a pandemic. “There is no geographical barrier to participate in a virtual series” she said. Jason Rosenthal, who will open the series on Oct. 6 with his memoir, “My Wife Said You May Want to Marry Me,” lived in a romantic fairytale for the 26 years he was married to his bashert (soulmate), Amy, a writer and filmmaker until she was diagnosed with ovarian cancer. Her last project before she died in 2017 was an op-ed piece for the “Modern Love” column of the New York Times entitled, “You May Want to Marry My Husband,” expressing her wish for her beloved Jason to remarry. It was published right after her death, catching Jason completely by surprise. His book describes his life with Amy and their three children (the “Rosies”) and how he coped with his grief and loss. Judaism played a big role in his upbringing and in the family he and Amy raised in Chicago (regular Friday night Shabbat dinners, Jewish day school for his kids). “Shabbat dinners meant slowing down from a hectic week. Simple. Quietly reverent. And always full of gratitude,” he told the Journal. After Amy’s death, however, he sought comfort elsewhere. “I look more to other spiritual elements in my life; mindfulness, meditation and yoga come to mind,” he said. Although he shares some upbeat stories about women who wrote to him after they read Amy’s column, his aim is to help others. “Grief is a beast and a non-linear process,” he explained. “Ultimately, my book is filled with a message of hope and resilience. One never ‘gets over’ grief; we move through it.” Other memoirs in the series include: “On My Watch” by local author Virginia Buckingham, who was head of Logan Airport on 9/11 and bore public blame for “letting it happen,” and “What We Will Become” by Mimi Lemay, a woman raised in an ultra-orthodox Jewish family who supported her transgender child’s odyssey. On the fiction stage are Lynda Cohen Loigman’s “The Wartime Sisters,” the story of two estranged sisters reunited at the Springfield, Massachusetts armory during the early days of WWII, and Anna Solomon’s Good Morning America Book Club pick, “The Book of V.” In “The Book of V,” Solomon intertwines the individual stories of three women: a Brooklyn mother in 2016; a senator’s wife in Watergate-era 1970s Washington, D.C., and the Bible’s Queen Esther in ancient Persia. Solomon, who grew up in Gloucester and whose mother was the first female president of Temple Ahavat Achim, reconnected with the story of Esther when she read it to her own children. She was struck by how many questions the story raised, especially about Queen Vashti (executed after disobeying her husband, the king), who had fascinated her since she was a little girl. “What did she do that was so bad? That was the mystery I wanted to unravel,” she told the Journal. “I also wanted to explore how our notions of a bad and good woman have and haven’t changed over time, and how we continue to reduce women to types.” Solomon was born in the late 1970s when, for some women, it seemed gender equality had been achieved. “But anyone can see that’s not the case today. I wanted to play around with what it means to experience life in a way that doesn’t match what you’re being told. These three women all take charge of their own story in some way,” she said. She hopes the book’s call for more connection and less competition among women resonates with her readers. “Let’s judge each other – and ourselves – less and reach out across our supposed differences more,” she said. Fans of nonfiction and investigative reporting will also be thrilled. Longtime BBC correspondent Raffi Berg will discuss his “Red Sea Spies: The True Story of Mossad’s Fake Diving Resort,” the story of undercover Israeli spies who staffed a luxury resort on the Sudanese coast and secretly evacuated thousands of Ethiopian Jews to Israel. Local author Eric Jay Dolin covers the history of American hurricanes from Columbus’s landing to contemporary climate change in “A Furious Sky,” and Kristen Fermaglich’s “A Rosenberg by Any Other Name” chronicles the impact of name change on American Jews. “The Last Kings of Shanghai” by Pulitzer Prize-winner Jonathan Kaufman recounts the remarkable history of two wealthy and powerful Jewish families who helped shape China’s economic boom. On a lighter note are Iris Krasnow’s “Camp Girls” (about the joy and lasting importance of the summer camp experience); Rachel Levin’s “Eat Something” (part comedy, part cookbook and part nostalgic journey). Alan Zweibel, an original Saturday Night Live writer who got his start selling jokes on the Borscht Belt circuit, shares his own stories and interviews with friends in the riotous “Laugh Lines.” For more information and to buy tickets, visit jccns.org.

Craig Miller had been a victim of sexual molestation when he tried to kill himself. Craig Miller was 8 when he first thought about killing himself. His home life was in chaos. He was being sexually molested by a neighbor and bullied at school. His obsessive-compulsive disorder was undiagnosed. By the time he was 20, he said, “I really believed life wasn’t for me.” One Friday night in 1996 he downed 250 pills and went to sleep. Advertisement Miller woke up three days later in a hospital bed. Later, his brother asked what it would take to make him want to live. Miller had no answer. “I had no reason at all to keep going.” Get The Weekender in your inbox: The Globe's top picks for what to see and do each weekend, in Boston and beyond. Sign Up Thank you for signing up! Sign up for more newsletters here Today Miller, 38, has found many reasons to keep going: a loving wife, two little girls, a nice home, a good job. He is also part of an emerging — and vocal — movement of suicide-attempt survivors who are stepping out of the shadows and speaking out about their experiences. Attempt survivors are hoping that a higher profile will help break the silence surrounding suicide, encourage those at risk to get help, and let them see that they are not alone. Studies show that people who are socially isolated are at higher risk. “The best way to speak to a suicidal heart is with a suicidal heart,” Miller believes. Suicide-attempt survivors say their very existence proves there is productive life and hope beyond despair. Many were heartened earlier this month when the country’s oldest suicide-prevention organization — the 46-year-old American Association of Suicidology — announced at its annual meeting the creation of a division representing suicide-attempt survivors and people who have considered suicide. Essdras M Suarez/Globe Staff Craig Miller shares his experiences in hopes of helping others who contemplate suicide. Advertisement “We are essentially saying that they are welcome at the table at any discussions about suicide prevention,” said Julie Cerel, board chairwoman of the association, adding that attempt survivors have become more vocal recently and about a year ago requested a division of their own. “There is much we can learn from them. Our hope is that this is the first step in a long process of changing the way we talk about suicide.” It was a significant symbolic and strategic step for a group that wants its perspective factored into national suicide-prevention efforts. “It’s ironic that most of what we think we know about suicide has been learned not from those who have experienced it firsthand, but secondhand, through interviews of those who have lost loved ones through suicide, and clinicians who treated them. There is an inherent bias in that, colored by the fact that they died by suicide,” said Phil Rodgers, a vice president of LivingWorks Education, which develops suicide-prevention programs. “There’s been a revolution,” said Terry Wise, 50, a former Boston trial attorney who lives in Wayland. She is the author of “Waking Up,” a memoir about recovering from depression following a series of hardships, including the death of her husband when she was 35 and a near-fatal suicide attempt. Now she works in the field of suicide prevention. “Ten years ago, attempt survivors were not speaking out,” she said. “When I see people like Craig out there, it warms my heart.” Advertisement Among those who have gone public are Misha Kessler, a recent graduate of George Washington University who came out on Facebook about a suicide attempt, and JD Schramm, a Stanford University lecturer who gave a TED Talk in 2011 about his attempt. Kevin Hines of San Francisco, who survived a jump from the Golden Gate Bridge, has gone on to a career as a charismatic motivational speaker, author, and mental health advocate. ‘There is much we can learn from them. Our hope is that this is the first step in a long process of changing the way we talk about suicide. ’ New York journalist Cara Anna is a former China-based correspondent who, following a pair of attempts at suicide, started a blog called talkingaboutsuicide.com, which includes interviews with others who have tried to kill themselves. (She edits a second blog, attemptsurvivors.com, for the American Association of Suicidology.) The blogs are “overwhelmingly not anonymous,” Anna said. “I’m just sick of seeing ‘All the names have been changed,’ and people photographed in silhouette. I don’t see any other health problem being framed in these terms.” New York photographer Dese’Rae Stage started an ambitious photo project called “Live Through This” about what she calls “life on the other side of the suicide attempt,” inspired by her own experience (livethroughthis.org). It is a collection of photographs and interviews with attempt survivors across the country. In many cases, it is the first time people have shared their stories. Everyone is identified by name. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention lists suicide as the 10th leading cause of death in the United States. In 2010, the last year for which there are national statistics, there were 38,364 suicides in the United States. According to a 2012 CDC report, more than 1 million adults attempt suicide each year, and an estimated 2.2 million reported making suicide plans in the previous year. Still, it is a population that is hard to get a handle on. There is no typical suicide, according to Lanny Berman, executive director of the American Association of Suicidology. “It’s the end result of a very bad sequence of things happening and interacting,” he said. “Depression is a significant risk factor. . . . People range from those who wanted to die but may have been thwarted or rescued all the way down to people who want attention.” “People like to say, ‘You have so much to live for, or suicide is selfish.’ It may be true, but the person in this crisis can’t feel or believe it,” said Stage. “You can’t consider the people you love, because your brain is telling you they don’t care and that it would be better off for you to be gone.” This was the conclusion Miller reached that July night in 1996 when he filled his body with pills. It was the culmination of many assaults. “I had lived 20 years of life under the darkest cloud you can imagine,” he said. When he was a teenager he “started to fall apart from the inside out.” He became consumed with guilt and regret and developed obsessive compulsive-disorder, including an obsession with numbers and an urge to collect paper and perform rituals. The noise in his head became deafening. He grew increasingly withdrawn. His sole healthy obsession was writing, mainly poetry and song lyrics. “I would really just write anything,” Miller said. “It was like an escape, an oasis.” He left home at 16 and was hospitalized five times, including one stay when he was misdiagnosed with paranoid schizophrenia. After that Miller moved to his father’s girlfriend’s house; six months later he tried to kill himself. “People ask me what changed,” Miller said. He has a boyish face and is soft-spoken, with a gentle, easy smile. “I can’t say there was a pivotal moment, but recognizing I was at my lowest point was the key I needed to get myself started. . . . I became obsessed with taking care of me.” After recovering from the suicide attempt, he found a cabinet-making job, which turned into a supervisory position. Eleven years ago he moved to a large engineering company, where he now works as a manager. He lives near Boston with his two daughters and a wife he calls “wicked supportive.” He still writes poetry, “most of it pretty dark, based around the things I need to get out of me,” Miller said. He no longer struggles with obsessive-compulsive disorder. It has been 18 years since he woke up in the hospital, and he said he is focused on learning everything he can from his past to create a better future. “I took everything positive with me and chose to leave the negative behind,” he said. That process “helped me develop compassion and empathy for other people in that situation.” Miller has immersed himself in suicide-prevention efforts, joined the executive committee of the Massachusetts Coalition for Suicide Prevention, and written a memoir, “This is How it Feels.” It has taken him a long time to realize it, but now he believes it: “I did pretty well for myself. I’ve been through a lot, I’m still standing, and maybe I’m stronger than I thought.” Linda Matchan can be reached at linda.matchan@globe.com

Lautner built more than 100 private houses during his career. They all were experimental and representative of his creativity and innovative spirit. Some of these houses include the Carling House (1947), the Foster House (1950) and the Malin House also known as Chemosphere (1960). John Lautner also designed the Sheats/Goldstein House (1963) in Los Angeles, Califorma, as well as the Stevens House (1968) in Malibu Bay Colony, California. When entering the main space, with its 60ft in diameter, the clear-span roof opens to the sky above, with light penetrating the space through the angled sun protectors of the roof. The chamfers to the edges of these openings accentuate the thickness of the concrete shell, beautifully made by an old contractor of Frank Lloyd Wright’s, Wally Niewiadomski. This room eminates a feeling of lift off from an outer space projectile. The floors are cut down into the rock so that the bigger boulders are at roof height. At night the black slate throws no reflection, and from the seating area on the circular carpet in the living room, the view of stars and lights in the valley, which twinkle in the reflection of the pool, must seem a special performance seen from a private island.

Alberta separatism, thought to be dead for decades, again pokes its head above the parapet. The Flintstone Federation is on the rise. In letters to the editor, online comments and talk shows, many people are making the point that if no pipelines can be built because Montreal objects, or Burnaby objects, or premiers demand highwayman payoffs, what’s the point of Canada anyway — especially when Alberta’s crippled economy still sends cash down the equalization pipeline, and nobody seems to demonstrate against that one. At the same time people say those things, of course, Alberta has a desperate need for federal stimulus money and expansion of employment insurance. Very few people will complain if the province gets them. These things aren’t always logical. But the old western separation pitch can be incredibly powerful and damaging during a crisis seen as abetted by Ottawa, either by action or the lack of it. There are already echoes of the fury over the first Trudeau’s National Energy Program in 1980. Interim federal Conservative Leader Rona Ambrose alluded to that feeling Monday, and she was right; it’s out there, and growing. A Facebook page called The Republic of Western Canada has 13,200 members. Founded last fall, its goal is to create “a place where our votes count, our values are respected, our laws are the only laws of the land.” If no pipelines can be built because Montreal objects, or Burnaby objects, or premiers demand highwayman payoffs, what’s the point of Canada anyway? Right at the top of the comment list Monday, one member said, “It would be nice if the Quebec sponges would return the money we have donated to their pathetic welfare state.” A fellow from Quebec didn’t mind that kind of talk. He said many Quebec separatists “are supporting your project of creating a country as it would mean we will get ours as well.” There’s a reason why Premier Rachel Notley keeps pleading for a “drama-free” conversation about pipelines. Theatrics over regional splits can quickly spill off the stage and start a brawl in the audience. The first round saw Wildrose Leader Brian Jean blasting sewage-dumping Montreal, and Mayor Denis Coderre responding that Wildrosers think the Flintstones is a documentary. For those who believe this kind of dispute always stays comical, or harmless, let me recall another near-brawl in the audience. On Nov. 20, 1980, only weeks after Trudeau Sr. introduced the National Energy Program, 2,800 people attended a separatist rally for Western Canada Concept at Edmonton’s Jubilee Auditorium. That giant audience was furious, ravenous and dangerous. Nick Taylor, the provincial Liberal leader of the day — later a senator — had the courage to mount the stage and debate Doug Christie, the firebrand separatist leader whose battle cry was, “Free the West!” Now 88, Taylor remembers what happened next. “I basically said they were being selfish,” says Taylor, who supported the NEP’s goals. “They didn’t like that. People started rushing at the stage and spitting at me. I had to be escorted out by some of Christie’s minions.” Today, Taylor says Prime Minister Justin Trudeau should approve the Energy East pipeline, although he figures it could take the courage Trudeau’s father needed to face down the terrorist FLQ. Separatism faded within two years, partly because Christie was widely seen as an anti-Semitic crank, but mostly because Progressive Conservative Premier Peter Lougheed fought Ottawa to a bitter draw, at one point even cutting oil shipments to the East by 15 per cent. Today, Notley clearly intends to avoid conflict; her pitch is reconciliation at a time when people feel attacked. It’s a stand founded on principle, but precariously fuzzy for a sharp-edged moment. Jean is certainly forceful in his Alberta advocacy. Many of the separatist-leaners could gravitate to Wildrose. [np_storybar title=”Read & Debate” link=””] Find Full Comment on Facebook [/np_storybar] Clearly, the best Alberta voice so far — strong and sensible at the same time — is Naheed Nenshi’s. The Calgary mayor scolded Coderre for snidely noting there are more people in Montreal than all of Saskatchewan. “Is that how we build a country?” Nenshi asked. “This is a guy who was a former federal cabinet minister. We’ve got to think about the nation.” Somebody has to, when so many people would be glad to dismantle it. Don Braid’s column appears regularly in the Calgary Herald. dbraid@calgaryherald.com

A municipal politician who died from a gunshot wound in his home west of Ottawa this morning has been described as "the warmest person you would ever want to meet." A second man found at the home with a gunshot wound died later in hospital and the politician's daughter, who was also shot, remains in hospital in serious condition. Bernard Cameron, 65, a councillor for the Almonte Ward in the town of Mississippi Mills, Ont., was a "very well known, very loved guy," said Mayor Shaun McLaughlin. "We're all in shock," he said. Sarah Cameron, daughter of Bernard Cameron and the mother of two young children, is being treated in hospital after being shot. (Facebook) Ontario Provincial Police Const. David Bird said investigators are still trying to figure out what led to the violence, but said police are not searching for suspects. "We are satisfied, at this point, that there is no specific threat to the public in the area as a result of this particular incident," he said. Cameron's 28-year-old daughter, Sarah, and a 33-year-old man she had been involved with, were taken to hospital with life-threatening injuries. Sarah's condition improved, and she was alert and speaking Thursday afternoon, said Carolyn DellaForesta, her supervisor at Almonte Country Haven, the retirement home where she works. Friends and colleagues told CBC News that Sarah's relationship was troubled. He was 'like a big bear,' friend says Family friend Jan Legere described Bernard Cameron, a former high school teacher, as a big, burly, lovable man known for his handlebar moustache. "Like a big bear. The warmest person you would ever want to meet," she said. Legere, who previously worked with Sarah at an Almonte daycare, described her as a "bubbly, outgoing, loving, loving mother," of two young children. "It shouldn't happen to anybody but it shouldn't happen to the Camerons," Legere said. "They're the pillar of society, the nicest people." A vigil was to be held at the Almonte Town Hall Thursday night. 'Going to take forever to get through this' The shootings stunned the small community in the former mill town located about 50 kilometres west of Ottawa. Bernard Cameron, a second-term councillor for Almonte Ward in the town of Mississippi Mills, Ont., was killed in a domestic shooting at his home, the mayor confirmed. 0:37 "You always expect that these kinds of things happen elsewhere. Nobody ever expects it's going to happen in your little town, and nobody expects it's going to happen to your friend and your colleague," the mayor said. Cameron's wife is also a retired school teacher. "It's a gut-wrenching, terrible thing they have to go through. I really have sympathy for them. It's going to take forever to get through this, and it's going to filter all the way through this town," he said. "We're going to miss him. He was a great asset to the town, to the council and to his whole community. It's just the last thing you ever want to happen." Cameron's chair at the Mississippi Mills town hall sits empty. At the time of his death Cameron was serving his second term as councillor for Almonte Ward. (Stu Mills/CBC) Officers responded to Cameron's mansion on Strathburn Street in Almonte, close to Highway 29, at about 7:30 a.m. Thursday, Ontario Provincial Police said in a media release. Anyone with information is asked to call police at 1-888-310-1122.

A couple of weeks ago, I received a very interesting email addressed to Dr. Sean Olive, Acoustic Research Fellow at HARMAN INTERNATIONAL, and myself from Warren TenBrook, an astute enthusiast. Enclosed was a .pdf paper titled "An Acoustic Basis for the Harman Listener Target Curve," in which he describes an alternative way to view the Harman target response. His purpose, was to elicit some feedback on his thoughts, and, since it contained content from both Harman Intl. and InnerFidelity, to ask for permission to publish his paper on headphone forums. I found his thoughts both elegant and provoking. It's not that there's anything particularly new in the details of his writings, but rather that his viewpoint offers a refreshingly clear way to see the issue from a different perspective. Evidently, Dr. Olive found his perspective tantalizing as well, and over the course of the next week or so, he and TenBrook exchanged a few emails clarifying the concepts in the paper. What follows is a mash up of the original paper interspersed with further comments by Olive and TenBrook's subsequent back and forth in placed where topically relevant. Enjoy! P.S. Please read to the end as I have, what I consider, a very interesting announcement to make! An Acoustic Basis for the Harman Listener Target Curve by Warren TenBrook Dr. Sean Olive and Todd Welti of Harman research have completed several listener testing studies to characterize preferred headphone sound under controlled conditions. They've posted their latest presentation on headphone target curves and listener preferences: http://seanolive.blogspot.com/2015/11/factors-that-influence-listeners.html The starting point for this work is a pair of Revel F208 loudspeakers measuring flat on axis in an anechoic chamber with wide, smooth directivity, placed at +/- 30 degree stereo positions in the Harman reference listening room. Depending on set-up, the room acoustics are capable of smooth 0.4-0.5sec RT60 reverberation across the audio spectrum in accordance with ITU-R BS.1116-1. Here is the unequalized speaker curve: There are normal frequency response variations in the room, particularly in the bass; however, I have added a 1dB/octave trend line to highlight a gentle downward slope. For comparison, here is a graphic of a JBL Synthesis professional room correction, including subwoofers. The JBL target curve and measurements before and after EQ are plotted. Again, the entire curve family slopes 10 dB across the spectrum, 1dB/octave: It is also instructive to compare the classic Bruel & Kjaer curve from their 1974 AES paper measuring multiple critical listening rooms and studios. There is a 6dB decrease from 160Hz to 20kHz, about 0.9dB/octave, but the pattern is consistent. Both Dr. Olive's initial speaker measurements, the JBL Synthesis measurements, and the B&K curve agree that high-quality speakers measuring flat in an anechoic chamber tend to have a ~1dB/octave "room gain" curve when placed in a good-sounding room with no equalization. Also, JBL Synthesis (a Harman company) room correction does not equalize the speaker system to be flat in the room. They smooth the room frequency response to conform to a 1db/octave natural room gain target. Importantly, the next step in Dr. Olive's headphone listening test method is to equalize the speakers flat in the room: A Graz head simulator is then used to record the frequency response at the eardrum reference point (green curve): Starting with the green headphone EQ curve, listeners were given headphones with ability to adjust bass and treble. In separate experiments, listeners arrived at the black (2013) and blue (2015) curves above, with somewhat more bass and slightly less treble, perceived as accurate or preferred. This approach suggests two concerns, one technical, another philosophical: First, Dr. Olive's research uses a flat in-room EQ as a reference point for subsequent listening tests and filter adjustments, which removes the observed 1dB/octave room gain of an accurate loudspeaker in a good room. I would predict that the flat in-room equalized sound would be too bright and bass-light for most listeners versus the unequalized sound of the Revels. Harman's listening test subjects agreed, and preferred increased bass and decreased treble. The flat in-room EQ does not appear intended to optimize the sound of the speaker in the room, but instead seems to provide a raw, blank canvas for the listeners to adjust the sound signature to their preference during the experiment. It is important not to confuse this 'palate cleansing' flat in-room EQ with accurate loudspeaker room response or accurate headphone EQ. Sean Olive - I appreciate your thoughtful comments on headphone target curves. I think we fundamentally agree on how to derive a headphone target response but there is some confusion on some of the steps we took in our work. 1. I think our target curve from the 2013 paper was indeed based on acoustical principles: it was first derived based on simulating the response measured at the DRP [earDrum Reference Point; as measured by a head simulator at the ear drum] of an accurate loudspeaker (Revel F208) measured in a reference listening room. We showed that the Revel F208 has a reasonably flat smooth, wide-band on-axis response and smooth off-axis sound and sound power based on the anechoic measurements. We agree that based on previous experiments (also see Toole's recent paper http://www.aes.org/e-lib/browse.cfm?elib=17839 ) that such a loudspeaker will produce good results as long as acoustical interaction between the loudspeaker and room are dealt with below 200-300 Hz, and the bass is adjusted to produce the 10 dB or so downward slope from 20Hz-20kHz. Depending on the room and the loudspeaker-listener, this may require some extra LF gain to produce the rise below 125Hz or so. So before we "flattened" the in-room response of the loudspeaker we essentially had a headphone target response based on an ideal in–room loudspeaker response. Warren TenBrook responds - Thanks for such a generous reply. For point 1, I think some of my confusion comes from my interpretation of documents in your blog posts. Your reply mentions you had measured the ideal in-room response. However, I couldn't infer exactly which published curve represented this response. I was under the impression that either flat in-room EQ was being presented, or the listener preference curves. On closer scrutiny, I see slide 5 of your presentation "Factors that Influence Listeners' Preferred Bass and Treble Balance in Headphones" includes an illustration of a 'Harman Target Curve" that looks virtually identical to my estimate. Slide 11 also is close, with a bit less bass and slightly higher 3 kHz treble; however, it appears in the presentation after describing the F208 EQ'd flat at the listening position, so I was was not confident this was the 'ideal' in room curve. Slide 30 is clearly labeled 'Loudspeaker equalized to flat in-room response', so that is the illustration I used to apply 1 dB/octave for my estimate. If you could point me to the "headphone target response based on an ideal in–room loudspeaker response" my questions would be largely answered. I'd bet on Slide 5, the first graphic below. I'd also be curious if both channels of the stereo pair are driven during measurement, or perhaps summed later, so each ear in the dummy head would include cross-feed from the other channel. Sean Olive responds - I'm glad we had this conversation to clarify some of the confusion in our work. Below is a link to a PDF summarizing the headphone target development. Hopefully it will clarify your questions, https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/16343460/History%20of%20Harman%20Headphone%20Target%20Curve.pdf As I explained before (and in these slides) the Harman Headphone Target Response matches the preferred in-room loudspeaker response with some tolerances ( +/-1 dB ) in the preferred bass and treble gain. The preferred in-room loudspeaker response is a smooth curve from 20 to 20 kHz with about a 9-10 dB downward tilted slope. We agree that a flat in-room response for a loudspeaker will sound too bright and thin. We used that as a baseline for adjustment. In the end, if the loudspeaker has a flat on-axis response you shouldn't need to adjust the treble, but the bass will probably need adjustment depending on the room, and the positioning of the loudspeaker and listener. Todd Welti is working on an explanation of how he measured the loudspeakers in the room. But essentially he used a GRAS 45 flush mounted to a head and measured each loudspeaker channel independently at the DRP with head in the sweet spot. He assumed symmetry for the head/ear and in the room and loudspeaker setup so the left ear signal for the left loudspeaker would the same as the right loudspeaker measured at the right ear. I think this is fair based on the shape of the room and the loudspeaker setup, which was symmetrical. He did a spatial average for each measured channel for +/-30 degrees and 0 degrees. Sean Olive - 2. What seems to bother you is that we flattened the in-room response as a sort of baseline curve for the method of adjustments. It was not our intention that this flattened curve be a "reference" that listeners could hear and compare their adjustments to. The flattened curve was only a baseline from which the bass and treble adjustments were made. We never provided listeners this flattened condition as a "reference" in the listening experiments. In fact, the starting bass and treble levels were randomized in each trial so that there could be no bias effect related the starting levels. An important note is that original in-room loudspeaker response (before flattening) was one of the options that listeners could choose by adjusting the bass and treble controls to the appropriate settings. In the end, listeners preferred a headphone target response that came pretty close to the preferred in-room target response of the loudspeaker using the same programs. In the 2013, paper they preferred slightly less bass than the loudspeaker. In the more recent paper, the average preferred bass level was the same. Second, I support listener preference research, but I feel that subjective listener data using two broad bass and treble filter adjustments should remain focused on documenting listener preferences alone. I don't support extrapolating these subjective preferences to broadly-applicable target curves for design, testing, or purchasing headphones as this contributes to what Dr. Floyd Toole dubbed 'The Circle of Confusion'. In my opinion, a measurement specification like a headphone target curve should be derived from objective physical and acoustic principles; listening tests can then inform us if the objective curve is reasonable and consistent with preferences, i.e. "musical". Sean Olive - 3. Your second argument, is that preference experiments should NOT be used to define target responses for headphones, in part, because of circle-of-confusions issues. All of the loudspeaker research (Toole @ Olive) and headphone research (Olive & Welti) have involved preference ratings to help support acoustical hypotheses of what the ideal headphone and loudspeaker should look like in terms of acoustical measurements. Whenever you do listening tests you have to use music programs and cannot avoid the circle-of-confusion issues. So you try to choose neutral, sensitive programs and use many programs and use statistical averaging. Ideally, we should have used more programs statistically sampled from what people purchase but we don't have the time and resources to do so. We acknowledge this in the paper and say that the ideal target response is a moving one that will depend on the recordings you listen to. If the professional recording industry used calibrated, standardized monitors that were well-defined acoustically to record and master music, then it would be simple to define the target response of headphones and loudspeakers: you simply copy their standard. But because no such standard exists we have to define a statistical average of what they use and hope the recordings were made using that average. The good news is that statistical average of most professional monitors is probably close to something like a Revel F208 (flat on-axis, smooth sound power) or a JBL LSR632 or M2, which means our headphone target response is pretty close. What we did find from this research is that the preferred bass and treble levels depends on the age, listening experience and gender of the listener. Younger people with less experience preferred more bass and treble. Older people preferred more treble (to compensate for hearing loss?). This is helpful in explaining why some listeners may not prefer a headphone or loudspeaker that is preferred by others. Warren TenBrook responds - Point 3 is most interesting. Again, when I could not readily pick out the measured 'ideal in-room loudspeaker response' curve, I began to almost view the listener test data as obscuring what I wanted to learn about the in-room measurement, and that led me to imply that you were largely basing the target on listener data, and de-emphasizing the in-room measurements which were my primary interest. I wanted to convey my opinion that listening tests are not an end of themselves, but a confirmatory tool to make sure the technical approach holds water. Then I read your insightful reply "...If the professional recording industry used calibrated, standardized monitors that were well-defined acoustically to record and master music then it would be simple to define the target response of headphones and loudspeakers: you simply copy their standard. But because no such standard exists we have to define a statistical average of what they use and hope the recordings were made using that average..." This caused me to recall the work at NRC on listener testing of loudspeaker characteristics. Dr. Toole and other's work to find correlations between measurements with listener preference changed the industry. (I still have my trusty Paradigm 5se bookshelves from years ago. I think their design was based on Floyd Toole's work—and they still sound great). My impression is we are getting close to a de facto speaker standard building on this research. But it never could have happened without listener tests to guide what measurements were relevant to good design. Clearly this is important to a headphone target as well. Even without a generally-accepted standard for mastering studios—and assuming a majority of recordings weren't mastered on accurate speakers in a good room—I'm glad Harman is putting a stake in the ground and proposing that its speaker products and reference room reflect state-of-the art and are suitable to derive the headphone target curve. Sean Olive - 4. In conclusion, I believe our listening tests confirm that the preferred headphone target response closely matches the ideal in-room target response of a loudspeaker measured at the DRP. I would argue we defined the curve based on acoustic principles (measuring an anechoically flat speaker calibrated in a reference listening room) and confirming that people like it through a method of adjustment listening test. In the listening experiments, the green curve (flattened in room curve) was only one of many options including the ideal 10 dB-octave sloped in-room curve. It was not a "reference" that listeners could access as an anchor but rather one of many options within the limits of adjustment. One of the adjustment options was the so-called ideal in-room target curve. In the end, the listening test data shows that listeners rejected the flat in-room curve, which has been shown in previous studies, and preferred something that resembles something you propose. You could go through the exercise of measuring many other speakers in many different rooms to acoustically derive a new target curve. But if you look at all the studies together (see Toole's paper), there seems to be consensus on what the ideal in-room loudspeaker response should be: in rooms, cars, cinemas and hopefully soon, headphones too. An Acoustic Basis for the Harman Listener Target Curve (continued) I wondered if there was a physical/acoustic approach that would favorably compare with the Harman listener test preferences. What would happen if I restored the 1dB/octave room gain slope to Dr. Olive's measured flat in-room 'green curve'? Here is the result: The adjusted curve is similar to the Harman listener curves in key respects: The adjusted curve has a gentle rising midrange from 200 hz to 3000 hz. Treble is tamed compared to the flat in-room speaker measurement and returns to baseline level at 10 kHz. The 1 dB/octave room gain bass rise from 200 Hz to 20 Hz is similar to the Harman listener curve, without a bass 'shelf' under 100 Hz. The 'shelf' might be related to the bass filter shape used for the Harman studies (another reason not to derive target curves from the two filters used in the listening tests). Tyll Hertsens has commented on bass emphasis in several headphones bleeding toward the 200+ Hz range can lead to upper bass and lower midrange thickness that is not neutral. The adjusted curve backs off the upper bass level slightly more than the Harman curves, particularly by eliminating the bass shelf. Here is a comparison of the curve with some sample headphones. First, the Oppo PM-3 follows the curve very closely, with treble somewhat rolled-off as observed by Bob Katz: Next, the Ether C is slightly under the curve in the bass and has a bit more energy at 3-4 kHz, but the midrange and treble follow the curve very closely: Sennheiser HD650, an open headphone, follows the curve well, with a bit less bass extension and slight midbass warmth: It appears that measuring accurate loudspeakers in a room with good acoustics and natural 1dB/octave room gain would provide a measured target curve close to that preferred by Harman listener tests. I predict an accurate objective target curve for headphones could be derived from: Rooms with controlled reverberation time meeting ITU specifications. Testing in different rooms meeting the specification would be beneficial. Speaker placement at +/-30 degree standard stereo. Relative speaker distance to room boundaries and to listener position selected to approach smooth room response from the stereo pair. EQ, if used, should be limited to smoothing the natural room gain of the speaker, but not force the speaker to be flat at the listening position. A flat EQ at the listening position is too bright. Instead, room gain of approximately 1dB/octave downward slope is expected. Testing with different artificial head/torso apparatus meeting IEC specifications would be beneficial to bracket the range of potential measurement variations. A profile of several well-designed conventional dynamic loudspeakers is preferred, representing mastering studio quality (anechoic flat with wide, controlled directivity). Each good speaker will have somewhat different directivity that will offer a range of potential interactions in a good room. Examples might include: JBL M2 Studio Monitor KEF Reference Series Revel Salon 2 Dynaudio Evidence TAD Reference One By performing various measurements with the same general approach to room acoustics, selection of reference-quality speakers and simulated head measurement techniques, a family of curves could be presented, including a best fit average curve. One convenient approach could be to engage several well-engineered mastering studios and do multiple torso?head measurements in each. I predict the resulting curves would be similar to the Harman listener preferences and would be an excellent technical definition of a neutral headphone curve. Editor's Note: First, thank you Warren for permitting me to publish this work-in-progress. I look forward to your further thoughts on this subject, but ultimately felt there was so much good information here that publishing your thoughts, and Sean's responses as is was a worthy endeavor. Further, Warren has pushed me over the edge. I've been, for a long, long time, very curious about what a good set of speakers in a good room would look like when measured by my head. As part of my effort to take a good hard look at artificial head measurements, I asked Sean Olive if it would be possible for me to visit Harman's research facility with my gear and take some measurements with my head. He has graciously replied that I could do so. I'm stoked! The measurement session will be in early June. Woot!

Education Minister Shai Piron announced the cancellation of national standardized tests (NST) in the upcoming school year. The reason given for the decision was that the release of the test results to the public exerted undue pressure on students, raised concerns as to the tests' integrity and harmed teachers' motivation. Related stories: "The standardized tests are important and valuable evaluation tools, which we should continue to use in the future, however they cannot be carried on with in their present format," said Minister Piron. "The current form of the tests harms schools, teachers and students," he added. The national standardized tests are taken in primary schools and junior highs in four core subjects: Math, English, Science and mother tongue. Every school goes through two such external exams every two years. Schools also conduct similar internal exams, which results they are not required to release to the public. Education Ministry sources claim that the results' publication in recent years has led to imbalances within schools between test marks and other educational measures, such as moral and social values education. "School principals faced tough dilemmas and felt the didn't receive the trust they deserve," an Education Ministry statement said. "Focused preparations for the NST were conducted at the expense of regular teaching hours, negative phenomena of wide purchase of preparation material for the NST and preparation during breaks were created. "An atmosphere of bad culture and league tables arose, which harmed schools, especially those which integrate students from lower socio-economic status, and do God's work to close gaps." Minister Piron told Ynet: "The message is we've gone crazy, confused. This thing turned into something that drives us from learning to measuring." Amnon Rabinovich, a high school teacher from Jerusalem, congratulated the decision. "From my perspective as a teacher, now we'll have more time to experiment in the classroom and delve deeper into the material, which we couldn't before because we had to finish studying for the NST." Rabinovich believes the decision will allow schools and teachers to mold the educational process in the classroom. According to him, "the NST created league tables which compared schools, and increased the motivation to drop students, and the schools which worked with the drop-outs were presented as sub-par, which often enough is simply not true."

Software development is expensive. It can take a team of developers thousands of collective hours to build, test, and deploy an application to the market. Naturally, software vendors aim to reduce these costs in any way they can. A common approach is to “build an application that builds applications”, usually by allowing users to drag-and-drop controls onto screens and wire them up with predefined logic elements, API calls, etc. Almost without exception, this becomes a money pit for the vendor. Fortunately, there are ways of reducing development costs and speeding up production. What Application Builders Try to Achieve Increased Reusability Application builder projects seek to take advantage of the concept of reusability. Reusability is king when it comes to writing software efficiently. One of the most repeated mantras of software development is DRY (Don’t Repeat Yourself). If a component appears multiple times in an application (or across multiple applications), write a generic version of it once and use parameters to customize it wherever you need to use it. Reusability is ultimately about abstraction: instead of hand-coding all the nitty gritty details of every piece of a program, write components that embody the higher-level concepts of each piece of functionality, then combine them. This is usually done in code, but application builders are an attempt to create even higher level abstractions in the form of drag-and-drop components that can be used to assemble an application as if out of LEGO bricks. A common goal is to eliminate the need to hand-write any code at all. Reduced Bugs and Testing Bugs are expensive. Not only can they be a source of embarrassment for you (the vendor), they can also be a source of lost business, and in the worst cases, dangerous. Nobody wants to be examined by a radiation therapy machine that occasionally moonlights as a microwave oven, and nobody wants to be the sorry soul who programmed it. Wouldn’t it be great if you could assemble new software from pre-made, proven components? Even better, if you could just drag them into a flowchart that was understandable by anyone and would make logic errors obvious to even an untrained eye? Reduced Development Time and Cost Hand-coding is time consuming, and to non-developers, the resulting code is as opaque as the windows of a meth lab, making management dependent on the (expensive) expertise of their engineers. But flowcharts, diagrams, and drag-and-drop interfaces are self-explanatory. Technical expertise would be unnecessary if such tools could be used to build a complete application. Why They Fail to Deliver The principles of reusability are best applied to small components and overall architectures, not all the stuff in between. It makes sense to write a generic textbox that can be used to create a light-colored textbox in one application and a dark, numbers-only textbox in another. It also makes sense to create a microservice framework that can be used to construct multiple backends that do vastly different things. It almost never makes sense to write a handful of generic “screens” and try to implement every application thereafter with them. You may laugh, but that’s a real assignment I’ve been given: seven different types of screens to cover the entirety of all possible applications. The fatal flaw of application builders is that they’re based on the idea that one can get away from having to write code. Just as software frameworks create useful abstractions of architectures, freeing the developer from having to write them, application builders aim to create an abstraction of the entire idea of applications in general, freeing the developer from having to write any code. Code Is a Necessary Evil (but It’s Not That Evil) Programming languages are designed to be as easy as possible to use. Productivity is always an important goal when designing a language, and languages that don’t pay heed to it don’t become mainstream. And yet they express only low-level concepts. Why? Why is such a painful level of detail necessary to write a computer program? The benefit of abstractions is that they allow you to think in terms of large, high-level concepts without being distracted by details. But that’s also their greatest weakness: they remove your ability to be concerned with details. And that’s why attempting to eliminate coding fails: if you need to customize your abstraction in an unexpected or unusual way, without code, you’re crippled. Programming languages are low-level because that’s the level of detail needed to write programs. Of course, you could create an application that allows you to drag and drop logic “elements” onto a flowchart and express the same level of detail afforded by a programming language. But then what do you have? A programming language–one that’s encumbered by the overhead of dragging and dropping instead of typing. Where Are All The Application Builders? Consider the goal of an application builder–making developers obsolete. Most developers are well aware that part of their job is to automate themselves out of it, and we find that perfectly acceptable. And most businesses that depend on us are happy to help, which is why they so commonly undertake application builder projects. Given the popularity of this goal, what would happen if someone created an application builder that achieved it? To say that their product would be in high demand would be a gross understatement. They would turn the software industry on its head. I don’t think it’s hyperbole to say that they would amass riches rivaling those of Bill Gates and Mark Zuckerberg, and be famous the world over. The fact that none of this has come to pass in spite of so many (probably thousands) of attempts is evidence that a useful, general-purpose application builder is incredibly difficult, if not impossible, to build. I would argue that such a thing is most definitely impossible, because the idea is fundamentally flawed. What You Should Do Instead Build a Framework The goal of reducing development and testing costs by reusing pre-made components instead of rewriting them for every project is not at all unreasonable. On the contrary, it’s a principle of good software engineering. Fortunately, there are effective and proven ways of doing this that don’t involve drag-and-drop application builders. Maybe your shop writes a specific kind of application. Let’s say you write software for kiosks, which tends to be characterized by simple workflow- or wizard-based user interfaces that interact with peripheral hardware. For you, it might make sense to build a GUI framework that facilitates building these types of interfaces, with built-in support for high level concepts like workflows. Or maybe you write custom web frontends for online banking. You could build GUI components that handle lists of transactions, two-factor authentication, gathering account or credit card information, etc. These things tend to be similar across banking applications, so they’re good candidates for reusability. If You Insist… I concede that there are a few use cases where application builders make sense. One such case is GameSalad. This niche is unique because: It’s targeted at a market that accepts its limitations. People who want to build a simple video game using something like GameSalad are typically not concerned with being able to use the latest custom-coded AI algorithms. As a vendor, telling your potential customers “we can’t/won’t implement that feature because our application builder doesn’t support it” would certainly cause them to take their business elsewhere. Applications built with it are closed systems. They don’t (to my knowledge) interact with third-party APIs. A major difficulty in using an application builder to create custom software for individual customers is that they may have pre-existing APIs with which the application is expected to interact. These APIs often have non-standard behaviors (i.e., using custom error codes) that can only be properly dealt with through the precise logic of code. If your business occupies a niche that meets those requirements, an application builder may make sense. That said, it’s still a risky proposition given the sheer scope that such projects usually attain. If you accept the risk, I suggest you start by building a framework as previously described. Make sure it can be used to efficiently build your target applications by itself, with code. Then, design an application builder on top of it that uses the framework as a basis for the end products. The application builder can generate files that describe the application’s behavior, and those files can be consumed by a runtime that “wires up” the framework accordingly. Building a framework first will help you hash out the concepts that the application builder needs to embody. It will also make the builder easier to write because, hey, you have a framework to work with. And if worse comes to worse and the application builder project fails, all is not lost. You still have the framework.

The upcoming American film Crazy Rich Asians has recently announced some early casting choices for what the producers have said will be an “all-Asian” cast. Among them are Constance Wu (of Fresh Off the Boat, one of the first stars tied to the project, and the female lead), Michelle Yeoh, Gemma Chan, and Sonoya Mizuno, along with newcomer Henry Golding, cast as the charming male lead, Nick Young. Set to play the Singaporean-Chinese character in the movie based on author Kevin Kwan’s bestseller of the same title, Golding’s casting is causing some stirs of controversy. From the start, the hallmark of the Crazy Rich Asians movie (as publicized by Kwan and the production team) has been that the cast will accurately reflect its namesake novel by casting all characters with Asian actors. However, Golding is Eurasian – that is, he is of mixed Malaysian and English birth. While Golding is not the only Eurasian cast member (Mizuno is also mixed race), many are objecting to the casting of a half-white actor (who looks half-white) in a role that might have served to change the views of Americans toward Asian leading men. With the lack of representation of Asian and Asian-American men as leading men in Hollywood – the hashtag #starringJohnCho gained ground as an activist movement to show what blockbuster posters might look like if an Asian-American man was given a headlining role – many are calling out the casting of Golding as just another disappointing whitewashing (or half-whitewashing) move by a major studio (Warner Bros.). Blogs, message boards, in social media, and even the Hong Kong-based South China Morning Post are questioning Golding’s casting, asking (in terms polite and not-so-polite) if this is as close as Hollywood dare get to casting an Asian man in a leading role? Is Hollywood racism so insidious that, even in a role written for a Asian leading man, they’re only willing to go “half a step forward” and safely cast a Eurasian man? Must an Asian man appear “a little white” in order to be considered appealing enough for Hollywood studios and American audiences? Is this really any different than refusing to cast Asian and Asian-American men and women on the basis that their faces are unbankable? But in considering Golding’s casting, and if racism against Asians is inherent in it, the question of racism against Eurasians, or mixed-raced Asians, cannot be avoided. While comment sections can be the vilest places on the Internet that should have nearly every comment taken with spoonfuls of salt (some ignored altogether), they do show the uncensored opinions people hold when regarding Eurasians. Amidst discussion of Golding and Crazy Rich Asians, the sides arguing for and against his casting indicate the long struggle for acceptance of Eurasian or hapa individuals (among other mixed-race monikers). The troubling question at the core of the debate seems to be, is Eurasian Asian enough? On one hand, many make the bold statement that as a Eurasian, Golding is not Asian. Largely British-raised with an English father, he is called a “white guy” and his “Asianness” is discounted. Others make the case that Golding, and those like him, are indeed “Asian enough” and the fact that even a part-Asian man (who looks obviously Asian) is being cast in a major Hollywood film should be accepted as a good thing. A commenter on Kwan’s page noted that Golding does indeed look like a Southeast Asian man and that his “casting was pretty good”. Still, a number of people pointed to the Hollywood tradition of casting part-white Asians as leads as a way to be “diverse” while keeping actors pleasingly white. The South China Morning Post quoted a comment from Kwan’s Facebook page that spoke to this: “For a movie that was supposed to break barriers, I really feel that they came up short in this casting decision. I’m sure Mr. Golding is talented and is going to do a great job. However, the message is clear; you simply CANNOT be a full-blooded Asian male in a romantic lead in Hollywood. From Daniel Henney to Russell Wong and even Keanu Reaves; only Eurasians will survive Hollywood casting scrutiny.” More of Kwan’s fans expressed disappointment in the casting choice, also not so much going after Golding’s “Eurasianness” but more Hollywood’s view of Eurasians as the safe alternative to a not-mixed Asian or Asian-American man. Nonetheless, all of the discussion of “Eurasians” surrounding the casting of Crazy Rich Asians is a prime example of the difficulty modern culture still has when considering mixed-race Asian people. When discussing Eurasian, hapa, mixed-race Asian people, the argument can become very polar: Asian or not Asian; accepted or not accepted; identify as one or identify as the other. However, it is perhaps the identity as “the other”, in all its connotations, that provides the greatest strength and struggle. Depending where you come from in the world, the experience of being a mixed-race Asian person is very different. For example, being “hapa” (a Pidgin term meaning “half”) in Hawai‘i is a very different experience than being hapa on the US mainland. With Hawaii’s “minority majority” culture made up mostly of Asian-Americans, being mixed race in Hawai‘i is just accepted as part of the cultural fabric. While race is not ignored – Asian influences like Japanese and Chinese, along with the indigenous Hawaiian culture define Hawai‘i life – the notion of hapa is not necessarily a cause for further explanation. If a person identifies as hapa, they are hapa; not hapa-but-no-really-what-are-you. As Kip Fulbeck told writer Alex Laughlin on npr.org: “I think [hapa] is a much more interesting and accurate word than ‘Amerasian’ or ‘Eurasian’ or any these words that are two words combined, because I don’t think of myself as half Asian and half white. I think of myself as a whole.” Yet being hapa or a mixed-race Asian-American can play very differently on the US mainland. Many mixed-race Asian-Americans (myself included) give up trying to explain being mixed race, as any appearance of Asianness was defaulted to as JUST ASIAN. While there nothing wrong with being “just Asian”, it does not give due to the range of cultures a mixed-race person may have a connection to. Can a person be of more than one culture, instead of choosing one? In a post on the blog The Ruby Ronin, the author, who only goes by Mary, candidly discusses her experience growing up half-Asian in America. Growing up in a small town in Utah, she found herself a bit between cultures. Self-described as looking comparatively “un-Asian”, Mary recounts, “constantly teased for being a ‘gook’ or a ‘chink’ and never a moment went by where I wasn’t racially profiled. Me liking Japan didn’t really help improve the situation, so memories of people yelling ‘hey ching chong wong’ and other such uncultured insults are still a very fresh memory today.” She goes on to say: The ironic thing is, everyone in my town saw me as Asian and I was labeled with that stereotype – so you would think I would feel more Asian than white. However, my mother never taught me her native tongue so I couldn’t communicate with family, and Asian Americans usually grew up and hung out with other Asian Americans in their community and therefore treated me, the weird white girl, with a strange indifference. After all, I wasn’t really Asian (plus, I was from Utah). So basically, I didn’t fit in anywhere. In a town full of white people I was heckled and called Chun Li, then when I was with real Asians I felt like something was missing from my overall composition that prevented me from becoming one of the crowd. I hear from other halfies this is quite common, and most half children tend to suffer severe identity crisis for quite a long time. It’s this question of “What are you?” that might plague a Eurasian or hapa person; of not belonging to either culture, of feeling as if a choice needs to be made. For many Asian countries like Hong Kong, Singapore, Malaysia, India, among others, Eurasians have had to work through finding acceptance in their native home, contend with anti-Eurasian/anti-mixing sentiments, and even muddle through the confusing place of having both high and low status within a society. While a large number of Asian glossy magazine covers, as well as the fashion editorials inside them, flaunt Eurasian models of all genders, making Eurasians (and their European features) stylish right now, that hasn’t always been the case in Asia. While the 19th and 20th century colonial era in Asia saw the rise of some influential Eurasian men and women, the question of where Eurasian people quite belonged in Asian society was often in question. While anti-miscegenation laws did not exit in places such as Hong Kong or China (like they did in the US), Eurasian children and growing Eurasian families found themselves in the odd place of being raised in Asia but not entirely having a place there. In places like Hong Kong, many Eurasian families rose to power, prominence, and wealth, very often identifying more with the colonial British rather than the local Chinese. Yet they were still an emerging group caught between worlds. Because of their Chinese blood they were barred from living in certain parts of Hong Kong; because of their European blood they were not always trusted as Chinese. Not entirely accepted by upper-crust British, but often rejected by full Chinese Hong Kongers, Eurasian families resorted to creating a tight-knit Eurasian community uniquely their own – one that still very much informs life in Hong Kong now. Yet, amidst the strides Eurasian families made in Hong Kong in the colonial era, it was death that, instead of being the great equalizer, was the reminder that Eurasians were neither European not Chinese in the eyes of Hong Kong. Eurasians could not be buried in colonial cemeteries due to their Chinese ancestry, but were also not allowed to be interred in Chinese cemeteries. It wasn’t until 1897 when philanthropist and businessman, Sir Robert Hotung, founded Chiu Yuen Cemetery that the Eurasian community finally had a place to properly bury their dead. Looking at being Eurasian in colonial Hong Kong, and even now, one could say that Eurasians embraced being “other”. And while being Eurasian is common in large metropolitan cities in Asia, with Eurasian features even being seen as desirable and “the best kind of mix” now, being Eurasian is still often seen as somewhat of a “non-category” when it comes to race. Eurasians, hapas, mixed-race Asians are pressed to choose a raise to embrace – usually the one they most physically present as. One might make the argument that forcing a mixed-race person to choose the race they most physically “resemble” is a way for dominant races to make it easier on themselves. In the cultural longing for categorization, being able to immediately racially identify someone is immensely less challenging than having to accept them without a context of how to treat them – consciously or subconsciously. But beyond racial “identification” (which is growing increasingly treacherous in these times), mixed-race Asians must contend with fighting for their own kind of visibility. Mixed-race Asians are typically just glossed over as “Asian”. Western media is not yet equipped to understand what it is to be mixed-race – be it Asian, Mexican, Black, etc. Because of this lack of visibility and understanding, many hapa and Eurasian people still strive to find acceptance in the two or more cultures they simultaneously inhabit. And though Henry Golding’s casting as Nick Young in Crazy Rich Asians brings up serious problems with how Asian men are treated and regarded in Hollywood, his casting also highlights the issues associated with being hapa or Eurasian, its privileges and pitfalls. Though for Asians, being mixed race may be seen as “favorable” in certain circles, let’s not forget that Eurasian and hapa people also fight for visibility and equality, often from both sides of the racial divide.

2012 Imagine Dragons album 2012 studio album by Imagine Dragons Night Visions is the debut studio album by American rock band Imagine Dragons. It was released on September 4, 2012, through Kidinakorner and Interscope Records. The extended track was released on February 12, 2013, adding three more songs and the UK release of the album was on March 26, 2013 . Recorded between 2010 and 2012, the album was primarily produced by the band themselves, as well as English hip-hop producer Alex da Kid and Brandon Darner from the American indie rock group The Envy Corps. It was mastered by Joe LaPorta. According to frontman Dan Reynolds, the album took three years to finish,[6] with six of the album's tracks being previously released on multiple EPs. Musically, Night Visions exhibits influences of folk, hip hop and pop.[7] The album received generally mixed reviews from music critics upon release. However, it debuted at number two on the Billboard 200 in the United States, selling more than 83,000 copies within its first week where it has since been certified double Platinum. It also peaked at the summit of the Billboard Alternative Albums and Rock Albums charts, as well as in the top ten albums in Australia, Austria, Canada, Germany, Ireland, Mexico, Netherlands, New Zealand, Norway, Portugal, Sweden, Switzerland, and United Kingdom.[8] Night Visions appeared in the Billboard 200 top 10 in 2012, 2013, and 2014.[9] The album became the fourth best-selling album of 2013 in the US.[10] It was nominated for the Juno Award for International Album of the Year (2014) and won the Billboard Music Award for Top Rock Album (2014). Background [ edit ] In 2008, Imagine Dragons formed consisting of lead singer Dan Reynolds, guitarist Wayne Sermon, bassist Ben McKee, drummer Andrew Tolman, and keyboardist Brittany Tolman. Each of the members moved to Las Vegas, Nevada to form Imagine Dragons, a rock band.[11][12] After playing in numerous local Battle of Bands competitions, the band recorded and released three extended plays: 2009's Imagine Dragons, 2010's Hell and Silence and 2011's It's Time. After the Tolmans left the band in July 2011 to be replaced with drummer Daniel Platzman in August 2011,[13] the band was picked up by Universal Records and was signed to Interscope in November 2011.[14][15] In 2011, the band entered the studio to write and record their major-label debut extended play, Continued Silence, and additional material for a debut studio album. Continued Silence was released on February 14, 2012 and was met with critical acclaim, reaching at number 40 on the US Billboard 200 as well in their chart debut. The EP served as a prelude to the band's debut studio album, with "It's Time", a song featured on Continued Silence and released as a promotional single from the EP, serving as the lead single from the album, reaching number 15 on the US Billboard Hot 100 by the end of 2012. Promotion [ edit ] Beginning on September 4, 2012, the album could be purchased on Amazon.com for $5 for one week only.[16] The Best Buy edition was available for only $7.99 with an in-store coupon.[17] On iTunes, thanks to the "Complete My Album" feature, any previous iTunes Store downloads of tracks featured on Night Visions counted towards the purchase price of the whole album, making the album under certain circumstances as low as $4.[18] The Night Visions album cycle has so far boasted three very successful singles and four promotional singles, with two alternate extended plays and a live album over the course of ten months. Regional releases from the album differentiate depending on regional accessibility. A documentary about the making of the album entitled "Imagine Dragons: The Making of Night Visions" debuted November 7, 2012 on VH1's Palladia. Singles [ edit ] "It's Time" was released as the lead single from Continued Silence and It's Time, both extended plays preceding Night Visions' release. It was solicited to mainstream radio in January 2012, and was released as the band's debut single on August 18, 2012. It has notably become the band's first commercially successful single, reaching the top 15 on the Billboard Hot 100.[19][6] The band performed the song on The Tonight Show with Jay Leno, Jimmy Kimmel Live!, Late Night with Jimmy Fallon, and Conan. "Radioactive" was released as a radio-only single from Continued Silence and Night Visions from April and October 2012 respectively. The band performed the song on Jimmy Kimmel Live!, The Late Show with David Letterman, The Tonight Show with Jay Leno, Late Night with Jimmy Fallon, and Saturday Night Live. It has since reached at number 3 on the US Billboard Hot 100, as well as number 1 on the Alternative Songs chart, Hot Rock Songs chart, and Swedish chart.[20][21][22] "Hear Me" was released as a single from Night Visions on November 24, 2012. The following day, the song was released as a 4-track EP, featuring the previous two singles, "Radioactive" and "Amsterdam", as well as "The River", which was a bonus track on the Best Buy edition of Night Visions.[23] "Hear Me", "Radioactive", "On Top of the World", and "It's Time" are all UK Top 40 singles. "Demons" was released to American Triple A radio on January 28, 2013 as a radio-only single from Night Visions.[24] It has reached at number 6 on the US Billboard Hot 100, as well as number 1 on the Pop Songs chart. "On Top of the World", also topped the charts in Portugal. It was released there on August 24, 2013 as the second single in Portugal. Promotional singles [ edit ] "Amsterdam" was exclusively released as a free download via iTunes. The single was released as iTunes' "Single of the Week" on the week of the album's release in countries with respective release dates of the album. The single was first released in North America on the American September 4, 2012 release date,[25] and again in European countries on the European February 7, 2013 release date of the album.[26] Imagine Dragons performing "Radioactive" at The Pageant on March 6, 2013, as part of the 145-date Night Visions Tour. Tour [ edit ] Before the release of Night Visions, Imagine Dragons made appearances on American radio and television to promote their extended play, Continued Silence and debut single It's Time. The band performed "It's Time" on the July 16, 2012 airing of NBC late-night talk show The Tonight Show with Jay Leno".[27][28] The band emarked on a tour to promote Night Visions. The 40-date "Fall Tour 2012". They performed as the opening act for Awolnation, and traveled across the United States in Autumn 2012 to promote the album's initial release in North America.[29] During the tour, the band appeared on the September 4, 2012 airing of ABC late-night talk show Jimmy Kimmel Live!. They also made a historical appearance on the October 29, 2012 airing of NBC late-night talk show Late Night with Jimmy Fallon performing "It's Time" to an empty audience during Hurricane Sandy's passage through the New York / New Jersey metropolitan area during that weekend.[30][31] In 2013, a world tour, entitled the Night Visions Tour, was executed in promotion of the worldwide release of Night Visions. Starting in February 2013, the 145-date[32] tour saw the band perform across North America and Europe. With opening acts such as Señora Lanza. During the tour, the band made their first national television appearance, performing "Radioactive" on the February 22, 2013 airing of CBS late-night talk show Late Show with David Letterman.[33] The band performed in front of cameras during their appearance at the 2013 Isle of Wight Festival for Vevo's Summer Six series. The performance, which took place on June 15, 2013, was released on June 25, 2013.[34] The band made another television appearance in the United States, performing "Radioactive", "Demons" and "On Top of the World" on the July 4, 2013 airing of ABC morning television show Good Morning America.[35] Critical reception [ edit ] Night Visions received mixed reviews from music critics. Brian Mansfield from USA Today gave Night Visions a favorable review, writing: "For all the group's musical mastery, it's the flourishes courtesy of producer Alex da Kid that make individual tracks stand out."[44] Mansfield praised individual elements such as "the mandolin hook of 'It's Time', the jaunty whistle of 'On Top of the World', [and] the burbling guitar in 'Demons.'" and said that "those creative touches may seem like small details, but it's that imagination that gives these Dragons teeth."[44] Gregory Heaney of AllMusic remarked that the album "sometimes feels as though it lacks depth", but nonetheless called it "an album that, at least for a few minutes at a time, will make everyday life seem just a little bit bigger".[37] Annie Zaleski of Las Vegas Weekly praised Night Visions for being "well-crafted and wildly creative, and boasts solid songwriting—three things that are sorely missing on albums by so many younger bands."[39] Lisa Kwon of Consequence of Sound gave the album a mixed review and felt that Night Visions "fails to match the fresh adrenaline rush that the band's first single had promised us when we first heard it on the radio or in commercials earlier this year."[7] Johan Wippsson from Melodic magazine called Night Visions "somewhat shattered, but as a whole this is a very charming and well-crafted album."[40] Chris Saunders of musicOMH panned the album as "so safe and middle of the road that it leaves you with the same hollow feeling that Las Vegas can, without the dizzying high and sensual assault that got you there in the first place."[41] Commercial performance [ edit ] The album debuted at number two on the Billboard 200 in the United States, selling more than 83,000 copies within its first week. It also peaked at the summit of the Billboard Alternative Albums chart and Rock Albums chart.[8] It has appeared in the top ten albums on the Billboard 200 in 2012, 2013 and 2014 (as well as topping the Alternative Albums chart in each of those years) and has not fallen off the chart once as of February 25, 2015.[45][46] The album debuted at number two in the United Kingdom, narrowly losing the top slot to Justin Timberlake's The 20/20 Experience.[47] The album was the fourth best-selling album in the US in 2013 with over 1.4 million copies sold for the year.[10] As of February 2015, it has sold a total of 2.5 million copies in the US and earned double Platinum status.[48][49] It was also the third best-selling album in Canada with 179,000 copies sold.[50] To date, three singles from the album charted in the Billboard Top 20, and five have charted on the UK Top 40. In the US, "It's Time" has sold more than 2 million copies in the United States, "Radioactive" has sold more than 10 million and "Demons" has sold more than 5 million.[51] Both "Radioactive" and "Demons" spent more than 60 weeks on the Billboard Hot 100, making Imagine Dragons the first artist to accomplish such a feat.[52] Track listing [ edit ] All songs written and produced by Imagine Dragons (Ben McKee, Daniel Platzman, Dan Reynolds and Wayne Sermon), except where noted.

To many devout Muslims the world over, certain fatwas released by Islamic clerics in recent times have severely taxed their sensibilities. The western press picks upon such edicts with front page headlines depicting them as ‘barbaric’, ‘shocking’, ‘bizarre’, or even ‘absurd’. Some of these edicts also make their way as humorous skits on late night television around the world. One of the latest such edicts that have created a lot of international media mileage is the recent ‘scientific’ report prepared by Kamal Sobhi, a former Saudi professor working with Muslim scholars in Saudi Arabia’s highest religious council. The report was reportedly delivered to the entire Shura Council body, 150 strong. The report assessed the possible impact of repealing the ban off allowing women to drive in Saudi Arabia, the only country in the world where such restrictions exist. As a result of the study, it was feared there would be “no more virgins” if the female drive ban is lifted, and relaxing the ban would also see more Saudis of either sex deviate towards homosexuality and pornography. It states that allowing women to drive would also “provoke a surge in prostitution and divorce”. And so confident were the authors of the report, they predicted that within ten years of the ban being lifted, there would be “no more virgins” in the country. In justifying his claims, Sobhi points to the moral decline where women are allowed the privilege of driving themselves. He describes such depravity through a personal incident that happened to him while he was sitting in a coffee shop in an unnamed Arab state. “All the women were looking at me,” he wrote. “One made a gesture that made it clear she was available. This is what happens when women are allowed to drive.” It would have been more interesting had he described exactly the mechanics of that particular gesture. And out of Cairo comes a report that an Islamic cleric residing in Europe released an edict stating that women should not come in contact with bananas and cucumbers to prevent any sexual thoughts. The shaikh was quoted as saying that if women wanted to eat these food items, a related male family member such as a father, brother or husband should bring it to them already cut up in small pieces. He added that these fruits and vegetables “resemble the male penis” and thus could arouse women or lead them into sexual thoughts. Carrots and zucchini should be similarly considered as part of the list of forbidden foods for women to handle in their natural state. When asked how such controls would apply to women out shopping in the vegetable section of a supermarket for their family without holding and inspecting the goods, the shaikh answered saying this matter was between them and God. In answering another question about what to do if women in the family like these foods, the shaikh opined that it was best to take the food and cut it for them in a hidden place so they couldn’t see it in its natural state. This edict has rightfully stirred a storm of criticism among Muslims, with the majority mocking the cleric and saying that such religious leaders only served to give Islam a bad name. One online reader claimed that the shaikh was retarded and should quit his post immediately, while another charged him as a “seeker of fame”. Another said only those who foster “evil or immoral thoughts” could think up of such a thing. There have been no official responses from renowned Islamic scholars on this edict yet. Now getting back to the driving and virginity issue, was the scientific report forwarded to the country’s legislative body based on quantitative polls which did indeed indicate that Muslim women in countries worldwide had indeed lost their virginity upon acquiring a driving licence and getting behind the wheel? And was it proven beyond a certainty of doubt that once a driving licence is in possession, prostitution, homosexuality and divorce are to follow? If that is the case, it would add to the credibility of the authors, and such a statistical study should be published to refute all these media allegations of “bizarre and barbarity”. The report hasn’t gone down well with some Saudi males and females who have dismissed it as yet another attempt to subjugate the rights of women, this time by injecting the morality factor. They also see such claims as an affront to the virtue of Muslim women in other countries who do indeed drive, saying that such claims insult Muslim women world-wide and make a mockery of our religion on the international arena. Why do such extreme fatwas always seem to concern women’s rights they wonder, particularly when Islam is so tolerant on that issue? Then there are others who resent such attempts from what they believe is a marginalised segment of the population to introduce their own extreme views in an attempt to make them part of the law. For confused Muslims, I suppose good judgement and common sense should be the order of the day when it comes to dealing with such fatwas. Tariq A. Al Maeena is a Saudi socio-political commentator. He lives in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia.

Full game available Levels 7, 8 and the rest of the entire game are now available! There may be some small updates to the interface later. Posted on 2013-03-07 21:16:45 Permalink Two levels and a fix Levels 5 and 6 are now available. Current academy record: 107.413 s (manually updated daily) There's a 27.557 s record but it looks like "cheating" was involved. Hopefully, managing to cheat was at least interesting. The first level's dialogue was cut short for some reason and this is now fixed. Thanks to StarStep (but really, everyone who commented on this game) for bringing this to my attention. The entire game should be released next week. Posted on 2013-02-27 18:31:16 Permalink Levels up Levels 3 and 4 are now available. Play here. I've also made this quickstart guide/tutorial available and posted the in-game instructions so it can be consulted separately if needed. Posted on 2013-02-21 19:13:34 Permalink

Advertisement Congressman Sam Farr announces retirement Share Shares Copy Link Copy Congressman Sam Farr announced today that he will not seek reelection in 2016 and will retire in January 2017 at the end of his current term in office.Farr is the California 20th district’s longest serving member of Congress and is the ranking member on the House Appropriations Subcommittee on Agriculture.During his 23 years in Washington, Congressman Farr has served on the House Appropriations Committee, Rural Development and Food and Drug Administration, and is the longest serving Democrat on the Subcommittee on Military Construction and Veterans Affairs. He also serves on the Subcommittee on the Legislative Branch.Representative Farr was first elected in 1993 in a special election to fill the vacancy when then-Congressman Leon Panetta resigned to become President Clinton’s budget director.Secretary Panetta had this to say about Congressman Farr's retirement:"As someone born and raised on the Central Coast, Sam Farr has dedicated his life to serving the needs of this area. From the Monterey County Board of Supervisors to the State Legislature to the Congress, he has for over 40 years fought to protect our quality of life. I was proud to have Sam follow me in the Congress. When his service is combined with that of his father Fred, the Farrs will have left a legacy of public service that will never be forgotten. We wish him and his wife Shary the very best in the future."Prior to being elected to Congress, Representative Farr spent 12 years in the California Assembly and six years on the Monterey County Board of Supervisors. His career in public service dates back to 1964 when he was a Peace Corps volunteer in Colombia.Congressman Farr said “For years my wife Shary has asked me to come home. “She's right. It's time. It's time to come home and spend time with her and with my daughter Jessica and my grandkids Ella and Zach. For over half of my life, I have been in elected office, the last 23 as a member of Congress. I love public service and I am proud of what I have accomplished while in office. I'm proud to have followed in my father's footsteps, the late Senator Fred Farr, and I'd like to think between the two of us we have had a tremendous impact on this region, the state of California and the country we love so much.”

President Barack Obama makes a statement regarding the Orlando mass shooting on June 12, 2016 in Washington, D.C. Alex Wong/Getty Images There’s something Sisyphean in the way President Obama is forced by circumstance to address the nation in the face of horrific gun violence. With each new season comes another mass shooting, or perhaps a controversial police killing, and with each tragedy comes another White House statement of sorrow, anger, and resignation. On this issue, Obama has ceased to be a president and now acts as a Greek chorus of sorts, offering his words to the public and speaking for the millions of frustrated Americans who want Washington to do something about the shootings that mark the landscape like a spatter pattern. “This massacre is therefore a further reminder of how easy it is for someone to get their hands on a weapon that lets them shoot people in a school, or in a house of worship, or a movie theater, or in a nightclub,” said Obama in a statement delivered Sunday. “And we have to decide if that’s the kind of country we want to be. And to actively do nothing is a decision as well.” Because Americans of all stripes are preoccupied with the White House, it’s easy to treat this as a presidential failure—a lack of will from the White House. How can Obama pass a stimulus and health care reform, but can’t get something as simple and popular as background checks? We saw executive action on climate and on immigration; why can’t we see it on guns too? Why can’t Obama act on policies that are more popular and just as dramatic as anything he’s pursued in seven years at the head of the federal government? What, exactly, is the holdup? This is infinitely understandable. And at each address on gun violence, if you watch Obama carefully, you can see him grappling with the same questions. Why can’t he do something? But this is a poor avenue for inquiry and the wrong focus for blame. Obama invested tremendous energy into passing new gun policies, pressing Congress on all sides in the wake of Sandy Hook. Republicans wouldn’t budge. And in the absence of their support, the drive failed. The problem of stricter gun policy isn’t the presidency. It isn’t even Congress. It’s the public, or at least, the part of the public that wants gun control. Our collective understanding of our politics is saturated in myth. We believe that we are rational (we are not), that we decide on issues not on personality (we do not), that we aren’t rigid partisans to the core (for the most part, we are), and that politicians represent the public at large. The last idea looms large. It is routine, for politicians on both sides, to decry “special interests” as an imposition on the business of government. The proper politician, the honest one, speaks and acts only for “the people,” broadly (and vaguely) defined. But this is wrong, full stop. American government, from the ground up, is designed around those so-called special interests, from the immense power of Congress and individual legislators, to the two-party system, which aggregates countless goals and preferences into two overall choices. This isn’t a perfect system, but it’s based in sound thinking. The United States is an impossibly large country of people with competing, contradictory, and often antagonistic views and priorities. Ideas and policies that seem popular often aren’t once you drill down to the details, or once they come in conflict with the values, ideals, and identities of an individual, of a family, of a community. The only way to make a country like this work, as a democracy at least, is to accommodate pluralism, encourage compromise, and limit the system’s capacity for rapid change. What you lose in vigor and unified action you gain in lower stakes. Politics becomes a little less life and death. This arrangement privileges groups that can organize for their advantage. You can call them “interests.” And they often work in concert and alliance with other interests that have similar or compatible goals. This is another way of saying that, in the American system, public opinion isn’t enough. You also have to have organized actors who can maneuver and agitate at all levels, who can leverage informal and institutional networks to build and shape support among that public, or some of its constituent parts. And in turn, those actors have to have ties to politicians and parties—inherently sympathetic or not—who see some advantage in working for the same goals. (Politicians like to win, after all.) How this looks varies across time and place, but it is the general blueprint, either on the left or on the right, from conservation to the ongoing fight over affirmative action. It’s been true as well for our most profound concerns, like slavery or women’s suffrage. Or guns. The public supports universal background checks and tighter restrictions on certain kinds of weapons. But American government simply isn’t designed to directly convert public opinion into policy. Instead, it’s a playing field where the greatest advantage goes to the most organized and aggressive interests. Do everything on the clean government agenda—take money out of politics, break up megabanks and monopolies—and that fact is still true. And what is one of the most organized and aggressive interests in American politics? The gun-rights movement. Not only does it have an institutional representative in the form of the National Rifle Association and the NRA’s most dedicated members—who use every lever of influence, from grassroots action to lobbying, to sway lawmakers at each level of government—but it also occupies an important place in the conservative ideological coalition. This was a product of both direct action (activists within the NRA who worked to align the organization with the Republican Party) and natural affinity . (The kinds of people who backed the NRA were also the kinds of people who voted for conservative Republicans.) The entire landscape of modern gun politics—from the Republican Party’s commitment to expansive gun rights to the real reticence with which Democrats have largely approached the issue—is a testament to the incredible success of the collective gun rights movement, from individual voters and activists to gun manufacturers and institutional forces like the NRA. President Obama could barnstorm the country and denounce every Republican who opposes background checks, and it wouldn’t change the extent to which the organized gun-rights movement has its fingers on the vital pressure points of American politics. There is no countervailing equivalent, at least not at the moment. For as much as Americans support stricter gun laws, we lack the kind of dedicated, organized effort that could translate that mood into policy. Sure, there have been moves by Michael Bloomberg to push gun control into the political mainstream, the first real attempt to create a structural counterpart to the gun lobby. But even that is anemic compared with what the NRA and its allies have at their disposal. So if you support efforts at gun control, don’t look to the president. The answer is to replicate the efforts of the gun-rights movement, from fully aligning the Democratic Party on the side of gun control, to leveraging grassroots action, to pressuring lawmakers, to punishing politicians—left and right—who don’t show the same commitment to restricting gun access. The president plays a part here—particularly in making gun control a Democratic Party priority again—but it’s ultimately a modest one, an advocate’s role. Major change in the American system is difficult. It took 30 years for a fringe right-wing vision of the Second Amendment—an individual right to bear arms—to become the dominant one, adopted by all sides and ratified by the Supreme Court. It will likely take just as long to reverse that status quo. The past few years of shootings and massacres have galvanized more and more Americans to take action and try to out-organize the gun-rights movement. If those efforts succeed, then this period, which feels like a nadir, doesn’t have to be one. The only way to make anything happen in American politics—even when the issues are life and death, even when inaction costs lives—is through dedicated, concerted action. The Triangle Shirtwaist Fire in 1911 was one of the deadliest industrial disasters in American history, and it helped produce a cascade of progressive labor law in New York state. But only after ordinary people—through unions and other groups—mobilized to make it happen, winning allies among bureaucrats and social workers and politicos to the cause of reform. Death alone won’t budge American institutions. Death and the right kind of agitation can be a different story. Read more from Slate on the Orlando nightclub shooting.

By far the most common question asked on every board game forum I’ve ever been a part of is some variation of “How do I get people to play board games?” Clearly a lot of people struggle to get their friends and family members into the wonderful hobby of designer board games. Board games are a ton of fun, so surely it shouldn’t be so hard right?! Sadly, skill and experience with board games doesn’t really transfer into skill at introducing people to the hobby. If you’re having trouble growing your gaming group, getting your spouse to join you at the table, or convincing some of your friends that boardgames are more than just Monopoly, I’m here to help. 1 – No distractions! Before you even pick out the games to play, you’ve got to ensure that where you’re playing is conducive to a quality board gaming experience. Free of distractions (excessive background noise, cell phones, etc.), well-lit, and properly organized. If you’re an experienced player, you likely do all these things already, but it’s easy to forget them in your excitement to introduce new players to the hobby. If your new players are constantly distracted, struggling to read the cards, or have to pause every time you have to fetch something you forgot, they’re going to get frustrated quickly. Don’t let yourself fall into that trap. 2 – The right mix of people is crucial! An introduction game session can very quickly go up in flames based on who’s at the table. I have two basic rules I follow when introducing new players. First, if other experienced players are going to be joining us, they have to understand that the session is going to be focused on ensuring the new players have a good time. Don’t invite the hyper-competitive friend of yours, don’t invite the guy who’s an absolute stickler for the rules who delights in calling out people when they make mistakes. At the same time, you shouldn’t suddenly show up to your regular game night with a new player when everyone else is expecting a serious game night. Secondly, although I don’t generally concern myself with the ratio of experienced and new players at the table, I make an exception if I’m going to be the only experienced player. Unless you’re playing a social game, or one highly dependent on luck, it’s best to sit out and help the new players rather than playing with them. The more complex the game (whether mechanically or strategically), the more important this is. Even for two-player games, it’s far better for you to sit on the sidelines as two new players play the game rather than force one to play against you. If you aren’t willing to sit out, or don’t have enough players for the game if you do sit out, following the rest of the guidelines as closely as possible to make up for it. 3 – Know the rules! You absolutely need to know the rulebook in and out. First time board gamers aren’t used to waiting while you thumb the rulebook looking for that one obscure rule that you swear “never comes up!” If their first impression of board games is 5 minutes of downtime every other turn, they won’t be coming back to the table any time soon. If you do happen to need to look up a rule, do your best to keep the game going with your best recollection of the rule and then look it up when it’s not your turn. Most new players are going to be more interested in keeping the game going than playing it perfectly. 4 – Know how to teach people games This is a skill worth developing even beyond your sessions with new players. Most people teach games in order of play (most rulebooks are written that way these days too). That will work fine with most experienced players, but there are a few other ways to teach games. I’ve found teaching games from finish to start works best. Start by introducing the theme, how to win the game, and then work backwards from there. This allows you to finish with describing what they’ll be doing on their first turn so it’s fresh on their mind. Since they already having an idea of the endgame and victory conditions, they have context for the actions they’ll be taking each turn. This will help cut down on questions like “Why/When do I want to do this action?” and “What is an X?” Use that as a template, and modify it according to the specific game you’re explaining. After explaining the rules, I prefer to give a brief overview of possible strategies. You don’t need to bury new players with excess information, but they should have an idea at least of some optimal moves. It’s quite disheartening for a new player to spend an hour making a series of terrible moves when one sentence from you in the beginning would have prevented that. At the same time, you don’t want to play for them either. No one likes having their decisions made for them. Enough info that they know what decisions they can make (and what they should consider when making those decisions), but don’t tell them what decision to make every time. Save the explanations of weird edge-cases, uncommon plays, and other infrequent occurrences until after a turn or two. Until they have an idea of how the game plays each turn, explaining that one uncommon thing that may not even happen will only serve to confuse them. If you’re going to take advantage of one of those aforementioned edge-cases though, it is imperative that your players know about it well before you actually do it. Introducing a rule and then immediately using it to gain a bunch of points will look like cheating to new players (and frankly it practically is cheating). You already have the advantage of years of board gaming experience, as well as experience in the current game, you don’t need to compound that by taking advantage of rules other players didn’t even know about. It’s worth noting that some people prefer to skip all those things completely when teaching new players as explaining all those extra things can easily overload a new player with too much information. Feel free to do so as long as you aren’t benefiting as a result. In my experience though, that one event that almost never comes up will invariably happen when I’m teaching the game, or I’ll be in a situation where my only viable action is the one thing I didn’t cover. Do what you think is best, see how it works, and adjust accordingly. 5 – Having the right attitude This applies to both you and your new players. For you, your focus needs to be on them having a good time, not just on winning. I’m not saying that you shouldn’t try to win, but if your enjoyment of the night is tied to emerging victorious against a group of first timers, you’re doing it wrong. Although I don’t generally handicap myself when playing against new players, I’ll often use the opportunity to explore other strategies, rather than the ones that I know I can make work. Additionally, I give new players a lot of leeway when it comes to taking moves back, whereas I won’t do that myself (or allow other experienced players to do it either). Prolific designer Reiner Knizia sums it up well, “When playing a game, the goal is to win, but it is the goal that is important, not the winning.” For many new players, a lot of the reluctance to play board games comes from not knowing what to expect, and a fear of seeming unintelligent. They assume that since board games are generally competitive affairs, that they’ll be brutal, cut-throat experiences (although to be fair, some games are). They’re afraid of being judged harshly for losing, while the winner gets to brag and taunt them. They’re afraid of making stupid mistakes in front of their friends and family. It’s rare to hear them say that (they may not even realize it themselves), but for many reluctant players those are their reasons for not wanting to play. I don’t recommend addressing those concerns directly, like “It’s totally cool, we won’t think you’re dumb when you screw up!” but in a roundabout sort of way. Stress that the goal is to have fun, not just to win (especially when playing with new players). When they inevitably make mistakes, don’t be harsh on them. Don’t taunt them as you exploit some strategic blunder they just made (you probably should have pointed out their error when they were making it and given them a chance to reconsider), and don’t laugh when they get some basic rule wrong. We were all beginners once, so be understanding of their mistakes as you likely made the same sort of errors when you were starting too. Likewise, praise their skillful moves, and if they are picking up the rules and mechanics quickly, let them know! 6 – Picking the right game The “right game” is going to be highly variable based on the types of people you’re playing with. In general, you want to select games that have straightforward, easy to understand gameplay mechanics. You want a game with enough strategic depth to be interesting to new players, but not so much that they don’t have a chance to win against skilled players. Beyond those two guidelines, there really isn’t a single game, or even type of game that will work for every person, so it’s important to have an idea of what would appeal to them and what they can handle. If you have a board game that happens to have a theme that would interest them, perfect! If they’ve got past experience with RPGs, CCGs, or even certain genres of videogames, you can likely up the complexity a bit. If they’re the competitive type, pick games that cater to that. Targeted attacks, leader bashing, and possibly even player elimination are all mechanics likely to appeal to them. On the other hand, games with rubber-banding, no targeted attacks, and co-op games (skip the betrayer variant the first time though) will work well for players that aren’t naturally competitive. Each genre has it’s own strengths and weaknesses, and will be best for different types of people. Party games: These are absolutely the easiest type of game for new players. Their simple rules, shorter play length, focus on social interaction, and built-in humor combine to make them very appealing to new players. Sadly, these sorts of games aren’t always ideal for getting people into the hobby as whole. It’s not uncommon to meet people who “don’t really play games,” yet play Cards Against Humanity once a week. If you’re starting here, ensure the next game on the list share some similarities, especially social interaction. Although Apple To Apples, Dixit, and Cards Against Humanity are all great, I prefer Say Anything! as its use of a dry erase board for each player, rather than a hand of cards, allows for much greater creativity and personalization. Dice games: With their high degree of luck and short play time required, dice games are great for new players. Avoid ones with little player interaction (Yahtzee-clones), and focus on ones that also incorporate mechanics common in other games. Bang: The Dice Game is my number one pick here, as it has variable player powers and hidden roles. Euro games: These games are often designed in such a way to minimize player frustration. Targeted attacks and player elimination are rare as a result, whereas hidden scores, quick turns, and rubber-banding are much more common. Euro games tend to have light, and often dry themes, which may not do a great job of drawing new players in, and if your players are looking for aggressive combat, most Euros are lacking in that regard. As before, ones with a good amount of player interaction will work best for new players. As long as your players don’t need a strong theme, most popular Euros will work though. Settlers of Catan is good (seeing as it spearheaded the explosion of popularity of designer board games), and Lords of Waterdeep is great if your players want a stronger theme. My favourite Euro for new players is an older game, Adel Verpflichtet (aka Hoity Toity), but as far as I can tell it is currently out of print. Thematic games: Generally dripping with theme, it’s easy to see the appeal of a thematic game at a glance. “You know that thing you like? There’s a game about it!” Many thematic games can be fiddly, over-complicated, or be replete with mechanics that will turn off casual players. If a new player gets eliminated half-way through their first board game, instead of taking it on the chin, they may instead think “I just wasted half an hour just to lose while everyone else gets to keep playing without me.” Pick games that minimize those moments of frustration. Be kind with targeted attacks, picking experienced players when it’s an arbitrary choice, and justify targeting a new player when it’s the right move. And don’t complain when the new players gang up on you (maybe even encourage it if you’re winning). My personal favourites here are Tales of the Arabian Nights and Pirate’s Cove. As a paragraph game, enjoyment of Tales of the Arabian Nights comes predominantly from experiencing an interesting story, rather than just winning. Pirate’s Cove has a popular theme, combat (with semi-targeted attacks), enough luck that new players have a chance, but not so much to ruin the game for more experienced players. Follow these guidelines and you should have much more success when introducing new people to the hobby. Tailor your game selections based on who you have joining you at the table. If your collection is lacking in diversity of gameplay mechanics, complexity, etc., consider expanding it a bit. New players may not like the same things you do, after all.

Erin McCleskey, 36, was serving papers at the home on Fay Street in northeast Travis County when she was attacked. A medical examiner determined McCleskey had been dead for at least five hours before she was found. McCleskey's family along with the dogs' owner was at the hearing. McCleskey's family did not want to speak to the media at the hearing but did release a statement Friday that said in part: We are a family that loves dogs. We have always had dogs. Members of our family have rescues. We are aware that millions of good dogs are killed every year in shelters across the country for want of a loving family. But there are NOT GOOD DOGS. These six dogs viciously and repeatedly attacked my daughter until they took her precious life. "It is our understanding that these dogs have previously terrorized the neighborhood. Complaints were made; no action was taken by the owners." After the attack, Travis County Animal Protection Officers impounded the six dogs in a rabies quarantine.

Fourteen puppies were also found on the property. Since the owner of the dogs plan on appealing the judge's decision it is known when the dogs will be euthanized. "They do jump on everything. I don't trust them, they're scary. I don't even like my dogs going around the block with us because I'm afraid that they will get attacked over there," neighbor Melissa Ballard said at the time.

If Trump falls short of that threshold but enters the convention with a plurality of delegates, 69 percent of Republicans in New York said he should still be awarded the nomination. Only 31 percent said they’d want to see a contested convention if no candidate reaches a majority of delegates but one candidate arrives with a big lead. Trump is going all in on New York in an attempt to win all 95 delegates. He has cancelled planned campaign stops in California and Colorado this week to focus exclusively on his home state. Trump is almost certain to win the 14 delegates that will be bound to the statewide winner. But the rest of the 81 delegates will be allocated at the Congressional district level. If Trump can top 50 percent in each district, it would turn New York into a winner-take-all for him. The Emerson survey said Trump is certain to pass the 50 percent mark in 5 of the 27 districts. In 11 others, he “stands a good chance” of surpassing that threshold. There are four districts where Trump is leading but could have to split the delegate haul, and only seven districts where Cruz is competing to win. Whether Trump achieves a clean sweep in New York, his current standing makes it highly likely that at the very least he’ll take a strong majority of delegates. Trump needs to win about 60 percent of the delegates still outstanding to reach 1,237. The businessman, who was born in Queens, leads among every major demographic in New York. He takes 61 percent support among men, 51 percent support among women, and leads with every age group. Emerson did not test the candidate favorability rating in this survey, but in the poll from last month, Trump was viewed positively by 71 percent of New York Republicans, compared to 54 percent for Kasich and 52 percent for Cruz. Trump’s New York supporters are fiercely loyal to him, the new survey found. Eighty-two percent of Trump’s supporters say that in addition to voting for him, they also like him. Only 45 percent of Cruz’s supporters said the same. Still, Trump would get thumped by Hillary Clinton Hillary Diane Rodham ClintonSanders: 'I fully expect' fair treatment by DNC in 2020 after 'not quite even handed' 2016 primary Sanders: 'Damn right' I'll make the large corporations pay 'fair share of taxes' Former Sanders campaign spokesman: Clinton staff are 'biggest a--holes in American politics' MORE in their shared home state if they were to face off in the fall. In a hypothetical general election match-up, Clinton takes 54 percent support over Trump at 36. Clinton would beat Cruz even worse – 58 to 30. Kasich runs closest to her, but still trails by 7 points. The Emerson survey of 321 likely GOP primary voters was conducted between April 6-7 and has a 5.4 percent margin of error.

Samajwadi Party chief Mulayam Singh Yadav, RJD Chief Lalu Prasad Yadav and JD(U) President Sharad Yadav addressing a press conference in Delhi (Press Trust of India photo) Nitish Kumar will lead an anti-BJP coalition for this year's Bihar Assembly elections, said Samajwadi Party chief Mulayam Singh Yadav today, thanking Lalu Prasad of the Rashtriya Janata Dal for nominating Mr Kumar to be the alliance's presumptive chief minister.Mulayam Singh's announcement ended days of speculation that the proposed alliance between Bihar Chief Minister Nitish Kumar's Janata Dal (United) and Lalu Prasad's RJD in the state would be a non-starter, as senior leaders of both parties made tough public statements on the issue of choosing a chief ministerial candidate.By Mulayam Singh's side at his Delhi residence today sat Lalu Prasad, who said, "I had asked Mulayam ji to decide and said we'll all accept it. Nitish Kumar is our chief ministerial candidate."Mr Prasad added, "No one from the RJD is interested in becoming chief minister." The Congress and other parties that will be a part of the Bihar alliance have said they back projecting Nitish Kumar as chief ministerial candidate.Lalu Prasad, also a former chief minister, cannot run for office due to his conviction in a corruption case earlier.Both Lalu Prasad and Mulayam Singh emphasised today that the alliance's chief aim is to stop the BJP from adding Bihar to its kitty of states. As party of the alliance, the JD(U) and the RJD will contest 10 seats each. The Congress will contest three seats and the Nationalist Congress Party one.Over the last few weeks, senior RJD leaders like Raghuvansh Prasad Yadav said Nitish Kumar's candidacy for the chief minister's post was not acceptable to them. JD(U) leaders hit back, insisting Mr Kumar must lead any alliance that they are a part of.By making Lalu Prasad recommend Nitish Kumar's name today, Mulayam Singh Yadav tried to signal unity in the ranks of the nation-wide partnership of socialist parties that he leads.But in a telling appeal, Lalu Prasad asked workers of both the RJD and the JD(U) to ensure the victory of the coalition. After decades of bitter rivalry, Lalu and Nitish came together last year after being trounced by the BJP in the national election. The experiment brought dividend in bye-elections held for 10 seats - they won six.

Over time, they grew angrier, more emotional, and more disgusted at America’s gun violence problem and Congress’s unwillingness to do literally anything to stop it. “This massacre is therefore a further reminder of how easy it is for someone to get their hands on a weapon that lets them shoot people in a school, or in a house of worship, or a movie theater, or in a nightclub,” Obama declared after the Pulse shooting in Orlando, the 133rd mass shooting of 2016. “And we have to decide if that’s the kind of country we want to be. And to actively do nothing is a decision as well.” But let’s be clear about precisely what kind of decision is letting events like this recur, most recently in Dayton and El Paso. Congress’s decision not to pass background checks is not what’s keeping the US from European gun violence levels. The expiration of the assault weapons ban is not behind the gap. What’s behind the gap, plenty of research indicates, is that Americans have more guns. The statistics are mind-blowing: America has 4.4 percent of the world’s population but almost half of its civilian-owned guns. Realistically, a gun control plan that has any hope of getting us down to European levels of violence is going to mean taking a huge number of guns away from a huge number of gun owners. Other countries have done exactly that. Australia, for example, enacted a mandatory gun buyback that achieved that goal, and saw firearm suicides fall as a result. But the reforms those countries enacted are far more dramatic than anything US politicians are calling for — and even they wouldn’t get us to where many other developed countries are. Think about it this way. In 2013, the US had 106.4 gun deaths per million people. That same year, the UK endured 144 gun deaths total — or 2.2 gun deaths per million people. To get to UK levels, we’d need to reduce gun deaths by over 98 percent. Even if we wanted to reach the same levels as Switzerland — the country with the third-highest rate of gun deaths in the OECD grouping of developed nations, after Mexico and the US — we’d need to drop from 106.4 deaths per million to 30.1, more than a 71 percent reduction. And here’s the truth: Even the most ardent gun control advocates aren’t pushing measures that could close the gap. Not even close. What happened in Australia Plenty of research has found a strong correlation between the amount of guns in an area and its gun homicide rate. Countries with more guns have more gun homicides. States with more guns have more gun homicides. Individuals with guns in the house are likelier to be killed or to kill themselves with guns. So Australia’s 1996 gun control was based on a simple idea: They took away a bunch of guns. After a 28-year-old man killed 35 people at the Port Arthur historic prison colony in Tasmania, Australia, a popular tourist destination, Prime Minister John Howard and his right-wing Liberal Party banned the importation of all semiautomatic and automatic rifles and shotguns, instituted a mandatory national buyback program for such guns, and convinced state governments to ban the weapons outright. In total, about 650,000 weapons — 20 percent of the country’s total arsenal by some estimates — were seized and destroyed. Evaluations after the reforms suggest that they saved lives. A study by Andrew Leigh of Australian National University and Christine Neill of Wilfrid Laurier University estimated that buying back 3,500 guns per 100,000 people led to a statistically significant drop in firearm suicides — 74 percent, in fact, with no parallel increase in non-firearm suicides. While gun control opponents have tried to rebut those results, those responses have been riddled with methodological flaws, and even some of the study’s critics have conceded that the laws likely cut down on suicides. The results on homicides were a little less clear. Leigh and Neill found that the buyback resulted in a 35 to 50 percent decline in the gun homicide rate, but because of the low number of homicides in Australia normally, this change wasn’t statistically significant. Supporters of Australia’s policy often argue that no mass shootings have occurred since, which is only true for a certain restrictive definition, as in 2014 a man shot himself, his wife, and their three children in a murder-suicide in rural New South Wales. There have also been a number of non-gun massacres in the years since the Port Arthur massacre. Also in 2014, a mother in a suburb of Cairns, Queensland, allegedly stabbed to death seven of her own children and one niece. In 2000, a man burned a backpackers’ hostel to the ground in Childers, Queensland, killing 15. But the homicide and mass shooting results are almost beside the point. Nearly two-thirds of gun deaths in the US are suicides. If we can reduce them by 74 percent, we’d be saving more than 15,000 lives every year. That doesn’t get us to where most developed countries are, but it gets us somewhere near the ballpark of Switzerland. Why Australia’s laws couldn’t be adopted in the US (hint: it’s not because of the Constitution) So could it happen in the US? The legal scholars I talked to suggested that an Australia-style program would probably pass muster. If we went further than Australia and also banned handguns, that might cause problems; the Supreme Court struck down Washington, DC’s handgun ban in 2008. But Australia’s actual system is probably constitutional. “Courts have consistently upheld bans on military-style semiautomatic rifles because other firearms are equally useful for self-defense,” Adam Winkler, a law professor at UCLA and author of Gunfight: The Battle Over the Right to Bear Arms in America, says. “Gun control isn’t stalled because of the Second Amendment. It’s stalled because elected officials won’t pass effective new laws to reduce gun violence.” Sanford Levinson, a law professor at the University of Texas Austin and author of the landmark article “The Embarrassing Second Amendment,” concurs: “If such an extraordinary law actually got through Congress (meaning with necessary Republican support), then I find it impossible to imagine that there would be five votes on the Court to say no,” he says. “But the real problem, of course, is that there’s not a snowball’s chance in hell of Congress actually passing any meaningful legislation re guns, let alone this kind of quite radical legislation.” And there’s the rub. Former President Obama occasionally cited Australia in discussions about gun control, but proposals he and congressional Democrats put forward stopped far, far short of what Australia’s done. Obama’s plan to tackle gun violence focused on universal background checks for gun sales, banning assault weapons again, and increasing criminal penalties for illicit gun traffickers. That’s nowhere near as dramatic as taking 20 percent of America’s guns off the street. Australia provides strong evidence that a form of gun control can save lives. But it’s a form of gun control that’s too dramatic for most mainstream American politicians to embrace. Mild measures can do something — but not as much Milder, easier-to-pass changes would probably also save lives. But the effect sizes are, unsurprisingly, smaller, and vary considerably depending on the study you’re looking at. For example, researchers have found that: After Connecticut passed a law requiring gun purchasers to first obtain a license, gun homicides fell by 40 percent and suicides fell by 15.4 percent. When Missouri repealed a similar law, gun homicides increased by 23 percent and suicides increased by 16.1 percent. Both firearm homicides and overall homicides are lower in states that check for restraining orders (13 percent fewer firearm homicides) and fugitive status (21 percent fewer) before selling guns, and firearm/overall suicides are lower in states that check for fugitive status (5 percent fewer), misdemeanors (5 percent fewer), and mental illness (4 percent fewer). The national assault weapons ban did not decrease gun deaths in the US, though if it had existed longer it might have made certain shootings less lethal. The end of the assault weapon ban did meaningfully increase homicides in Mexico. A Maryland law banning cheap, crummy handguns might have reduced gun homicides, but this effect was offset in part by customers rushing to purchase the guns before the ban took effect. There are a few promising items there, especially when it comes to gun licensing. But taken together, this doesn’t look like an agenda that can get the US to European rates of gun deaths. If you go by the Connecticut experience, licensing can nearly halve gun homicides — but that’s by far the most promising finding. Missouri’s experience suggests a much smaller effect. And the effects of various interventions aren’t additive. An assault weapons ban implemented without universal background checks is going to be more effective than one implemented alongside them, because some of the violence you’re trying to prevent would’ve been foiled by either policy alone. I asked David Hemenway, a professor at Harvard’s public health school who has co-authored dozens of papers on the effects of guns and gun regulation on mortality, if he thought these kinds of smaller-bore reforms could have a big enough effect to bring the US down to European levels. “It’s all speculation,” he replied. “I suspect it would take a while (decades) for the US to get down to gun violence levels of other developed countries because a) we have so many guns which are durable, and b) we have a gun culture — we tend to use guns more often in more situations than citizens of other developed countries.” It might be easier if there are positive feedback loops, he says — “if the rival gang doesn’t have guns, our gang has less need of guns” — but it’ll be an uphill battle. Worse, even these milder-than-Australia policies are considerably more ambitious than legislation with a chance of passing Congress. The Manchin-Toomey bill, the only post-Newtown gun legislation to even come close to becoming law, didn’t even establish universal background checks, let alone mandate individual licensing, as Connecticut’s law does. “Even getting half or a quarter of the way down to other nations would save a lot of lives,” Hemenway emphasizes. That’s undoubtedly true. Background checks, licensing requirements, and the like are positive steps. They save lives, and states should pass them. But America will still be a gun violence outlier, even with them. This problem is going to be really, really hard to solve Research on guns is murky. It’s necessarily an area where it’s hard to do rigorous experimental research, so most studies are conducted after the fact, raising all kind of methodological challenges. That means it’s good to be skeptical of big claims from single studies — e.g., that licensing and background checks alone could cut gun homicides by 40 percent. But we have accumulated some general knowledge all the same. Perhaps the single most supported contention in all of gun research is that more guns mean more gun deaths. The US doesn’t just have a gun violence problem because of its lax gun regulation. It has a problem because it has a culture that encourages large-scale gun possession, and other countries do not. That, combined with Australia’s experience, makes large-scale confiscation look like easily the most promising approach for bringing US gun homicides down to European rates. Large-scale confiscation is not going to happen. That’s no reason to stop advocating it. (I also want to repeal all immigration laws and give everyone a monthly check from the government with no strings attached, and will argue for those ideas even though they’re not politically viable.) But it does mean that we should be realistic about what gun control with an actual shot of passage can achieve. It can make us safer. It cannot make us Europe. Unless something dramatic changes, gun violence will remain a distinctly American problem for the rest of our lives — background checks or no.

“From the very beginning I kept thinking, Young people please! Take all this to heart. This is not just fiction. I keep waiting for the younger generations to wake up. I was hoping that young people seeing these films would become inspired to become politically involved. Obviously, this is just a movie, but there are powerful themes here. I would love to see young people catapulted out of their chairs and away from their computer screens and devices and games, and do something politically. I hope they will increasingly go out and vote! I hope they would see this world is dying and they will die right alongside it, unless they do something to change the planet.” -Donald Sutherland, http://www.ew.com/article/2015/10/01/ew-cover-hunger-games-mockingjay-part-2 On November 19th Bernie Sanders gave a nationally-covered speech in Washington, D.C. about why he is a democratic socialist and what it means to him. On the very next day, the fourth and final movie in the Hunger Games series, Mockingjay Part Two, was publicly released and seen all around the country. I’m sure this was a coincidence, but what a coincidence! There are very real similarities between Sanders, a man who has been standing up on behalf of working people and justice for his whole adult life, and the Mockingjay, Katniss Everdeen, the heroine of the Hunger Games series from beginning to end. For those who aren’t tuned in to popular culture in the USA, the Hunger Games book and movie series are a major cultural phenomenon. According to Wikipedia, as of 2014 more than 65 million copies of the three books have been sold, and turnout for the three movies prior to Mockingjay Part Two was similar. The books have been translated into 51 languages, so they are having an international impact. The star of the books and the movies is Katniss Everdeen, an attractive and vivacious young woman in her late teens played by attractive and vivacious Jennifer Lawrence. Over the course of the books she becomes the inspirational leader of an eventually successful revolution against a severely repressive and corrupt government. This takes place in a country, Panem, whose origins and reality are described by author Suzanne Collins in this way in the first book, The Hunger Games: “Panem, the country that rose up out of the ashes of a place that was once called North America. He lists the disasters, the droughts, the storms, the fires, the encroaching seas that swallowed up so much of the land, the brutal war for what little sustenance remained.” At first thought, the idea that Bernie and the Mockingjay are similar is laughable. Bernie is in his early 70’s, balding, wears glasses all the time and has never been an excellent archer, if an archer at all. Katniss Everdeen, as played by Jennifer Lawrence, is a passionate young woman and a skilled archer who risks her life constantly. She does so first in a “hunger games” elimination-to-the-last-person-standing competition and then on behalf of the revolution once she plays a central role in launching it. And yet, there are a lot of similarities: -Both are outspoken and determined in their opposition to a violent, repressive, corrupt and poverty-creating economic, political and military system. -Both came from families where life was not easy, where economic challenges were part of their lived reality. -Both believe in family. Katniss is shown as a loving, if sometimes difficult, daughter and sister and, at the very end of Mockingjay, the third book, a devoted and loving mother. Bernie has been married since 1988 and has four children and seven grandchildren. -Both have galvanized a critical mass, a huge mass movement, in support of the objective of a “political revolution,” as Bernie describes his historic project, and the overthrow of dictator President Snow, played by Donald Sutherland, in Katniss’ case. -And finally, both must contend with a strong woman leader who shares some of the same ideas and commitments but who is ultimately much less committed, not truly committed, to government of the people, by the people and for the people. To advance that cause both must defeat their respective female nemesis. Katniss does so in Mockingjay Part Two in a way that Bernie definitely will not be doing with Hillary. There is another difference. Bernie is not a leader of an armed revolution. He is taking a more traditional route for those seeking social and political change, attempting to achieve victory via the ballot box. However, he has also said on numerous occasions that if he is elected he will be a different kind of President. During an interview with Katie Couric on June 1, he explained how he would do things differently than Barack Obama: “The mistake that he made is the day after he was inaugurated. . .he said thank you very much for helping me get elected. I’ll take it from here. I can sit down with John Boehner, and I can sit down with Mitch McConnell. I can sit down with the Republicans. We’re going to negotiate. We’re going to work it out. Well, guess what? From day one, they never wanted to negotiate. “My view is that the only we can bring about an agenda that works for working families is if millions of people are actively involved in the political process. If a million young people march on Washington they say to the Republican leadership, we know what’s going on, and you better vote to deal with student debt. You better vote to make public universities and colleges tuition free, that’s when it will happen. We’re already seeing that with the minimum wage. Do you know why the minimum wage is going up around the country? Because workers are going out into the street, so we need a political revolution, in my view, where people begin to stand up and fight and take on the big money interests. If we don’t have that, no president, not the best president in the world will ever be able to accomplish anything.” It is amazing that someone who has a definite chance of winning the Presidency and who would use that office to advance a mass-based political revolution just gave a major speech about socialism. The spirit of the Mockingjay is beating strong within the heart of Bernie Sanders. Ted Glick has been a progressive activist and organizer since 1968.

With midterm elections not far off, Democratic opposition researchers are armed with thousands of pages of records obtained from the Environmental Protection Agency through the Freedom of Information Act, far outpacing known Republican efforts to pry information loose from the agency, records show. Democrats have filed more than 50 FOIA requests, including lots seeking correspondence between Republicans and EPA officials — letters that operatives will scour for any hint that politicians’ rhetoric doesn’t square with how they conduct themselves outside of public view. Their findings help supply a steady flow of material for damaging news stories and campaign ads. Twenty-eight of the Democrats’ requests have been completed. Most resulted in the EPA release of documents with some reports that a search yielded no records. The other requests are being processed or await assignment. Republican political committees have filed just four requests since 2012, and none of those has been fulfilled. One request that has languished for more than two years sought correspondence between John F. Kerry, a senator at the time, and EPA Administrator Lisa P. Jackson. EPA officials said they don’t play favorites when it comes to handling requests and go beyond many other agencies in posting online the information they release in response to requests. “We process all incoming FOIA requests with the same consideration regardless of affiliation, not-for-profit status, geography etc.,” EPA spokeswoman Liz Purchia wrote in an email. “And in honor of transparency, we share all of our FOIA requests and communications online for the public to see.” PHOTOS: Awesome rifles: The best and the baddest As transparency advocates test the government’s commitment to the FOIA during “Sunshine Week,” the requests show how open records laws are used by more than journalists and government watchdog groups. Campaign operatives routinely employ the law to explore the fertile ground between what politicians say in public and how they operate behind closed doors. Democrats make no apologies for their aggressive pursuit of records. In recent weeks, Democratic researchers have obtained hundreds of pages of EPA documents on GenOn Energy, which is where Senate candidate Mark Jacobs, Iowa Republican, worked as president and chief financial officer. The Democratic Senatorial Campaign Committee has received dozens of requests as well as correspondence with Rep. Steve Daines, a Republican running for Senate in Montana, and with Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell, who is up for re-election in Kentucky. “The DSCC believes an aggressive research operation is crucial to fully examining the records of Republican Senate candidates who back a special interest agenda that’s good for billionaires like the Koch Brothers and bad for nearly everyone else in the country,” DSCC press secretary Justin Barasky wrote Tuesday in an email to The Washington Times. The lack of EPA records on the Republican side doesn’t mean Republicans are less aggressive than Democrats. Campaigns sometimes file requests through intermediaries — “regular citizens” — so as not to attract undue attention inside agencies, said Jeffrey Berkowitz, a research consultant who advises campaigns on open-records requests. Mr. Berkowitz said clients sometimes don’t want anyone to know what documents they are trying to track down, so they use intermediaries with no outward political affiliation to file requests. The FOIA process isn’t easy. Months and sometimes even years can pass before agencies respond to records requests. Even then, agencies have a host of exemptions with which they can black out huge swaths of paperwork, shielding records from public view. “You have to start early and you see with the national political organizations, they’re often thinking very far ahead.” But the records can pay off, he said. “If you’re about to run against an incumbent senator or congressman in an agricultural state, you might want to see what correspondence they’re sending to [the Agriculture Department] to advocate for their constituency. You may not find much, or you may find letters that match up neatly with their list of donors,” he said. Jack Pitney, a politics professor at Claremont McKenna College and author of “The Art of Political Warfare,” said it’s not unusual for campaign operatives to file request for records through outsiders. “People in political committees have many friends who can obtain information and pass it along,” he said. “If you’re running, you want to get every document you can with your opponent’s name on it, and FOIA is a way to do that.” In turn, information can be pushed on as “tips” to journalists covering campaigns. In other cases, information is used more discreetly — quietly delivered through an intermediary as a friendly warning not to enter a race. The EPA has come under fire from Republicans for playing favorites with open-records requests. Congressional Republicans last year said a review of records showed the EPA gave environmental groups a break on fees associated with FOIA requests but refused to waive fees for conservative think tanks. Despite being one of only a handful of agencies to post its FOIA responses online, the agency also came under criticism from the Society of Environmental Journalists this week over its transparency practices. The society, in an op-ed, said the EPA was one of the most open agencies in government during the 1980s and 1990s but became “incredibly secretive, especially under the Obama administration.” “When the agency does respond, a favorite tactic is to wait until just before or even after a reporter’s deadline and then mail a short written statement that does not answer the questions,” the journalists’ piece stated. EPA officials defended the agency’s handling of media requests. “While the op-ed contains several inaccuracies, timely response remains a priority for EPA,” Ms. Purchia said. “EPA works daily to ensure that any information we share with the public is timely, accurate, and reflects all of the necessary facts.” Open-records requests have received extra scrutiny across the Obama administration because of the president’s pledges of openness. The Washington-based watchdog group Cause of Action issued a report Tuesday questioning whether political appointees are meddling in the FOIA process. The report criticized a memo from former White House Counsel Greg Craig, which instructed agencies to inform the White House about requests involving “White House equities.” Dan Epstein, executive director of Cause of Action, said the memo could hinder production of documents to the public as well as congressional oversight committees.

Kevin De Bruyne would consider a move back to Chelsea despite barely featuring in his time at Stamford Bridge, sources told ESPN FC. The in-demand Belgium midfielder's immediate future probably rests on whether Wolfsburg qualify for the Champions League, but he would be open to the possibility of a second spell in London. Manchester United and Manchester City are also interested in the 23-year-old, who is the most creative player in the major European leagues with 24 assists already this season, and both would appeal as possible destinations if he were to leave Wolfsburg. The former Genk player was only granted three Premier League appearances during his stint at Stamford Bridge, which ended with a move in January 2014, but he left Chelsea on good terms and has not ruled out a return. De Bruyne's representatives have said that the former Werder Bremen player will not be at Wolfsburg forever in the unlikely event of them failing to finish in the top four in the Bundesliga or win the Europa League, their two possible routes into the Champions League, he would be likelier to leave the club in the summer. Wolfsburg are currently second in the Bundesliga and will face Napoli in the last eight of the Europa League but if they fail on both fronts, De Bruyne will probably leave the Volkswagen Arena. The Belgium international has scored nine goals and set up another 16 in 26 Bundesliga appearances this season. De Bruyne, who has also scored 14 goals this season, wants his next club to have the footballing might and financial power to participate in the Champions League and compete for trophies, which includes both Manchester clubs and Chelsea. De Bruyne's Belgium teammates Eden Hazard and Thibaut Courtois are in the Chelsea squad, and the former said this week he believes the Wolfsburg man is good enough to play for Jose Mourinho's team. Chelsea did not include a clause giving them the first option to re-sign De Bruyne when they sold him 14 months ago. Wolfsburg paid £18 million for De Bruyne, but his swift progress in their colours means he is now valued at around £50 million. However, his immediate focus is on helping Dieter Hecking's side complete their promising season successfully, rather than angling for a move.

The Hills (and the Johnslingtons) Come Alive in Austria – The Johnslingtons ShowShow Skip to content The Johnslingtons Bloggin' Around the World Like It's 2006! The Hills (and the Johnslingtons) Come Alive in Austria August 3, 2022 Author by Julie Eglington You know that thing that happens when you feel better after feeling terrible? You have the flu or Covid or food poisoning and your body just completely turns on you and it’s miserable and then, one day, you go back to feeling pretty normal and it’s AWESOME? Like, sun shining, birds singing, ready to take to the hills singing Julie Andrews-style awesome? That’s kind of how Austria was for our whole family. But it was touch and go there for a minute. Fi had just recovered from her 10-day mystery illness on our last day in Berlin when I caught some version of what she had. My throat was thick and sore and I spent our last night tossing and turning with a fever. This was, needless to say, frustrating timing. Like, was every member of our family going to get a sick one after the other? Could Fi and I not have gotten this virus simultaneously? I’d just spent over a week lying around with my sick kid, which would have been a fine time for me to also be feeling unwell, but nope! That’s not how this thing was shaping up. Fortunately, I woke up well enough to pack up and clean the apartment that had been so generously loaned to us before catching a cab to the train station. Two things we learned on this particular travel day: German pharmacies don’t mess around. We were almost out of the children’s paracetamol we’d gotten in Croatia and wanted to pick up more at the train-station pharmacy just in case. The woman behind the counter presented us with a little box, which, she matter-of-factly stated was full of paracetamol suppositories. Well. “You don’t have anything she can take orally?” I asked, pushing Fiona forward to show that she was, like, a full-fledged kid and not some helpless baby whose bum I could just shove things into willy-nilly. She made it clear that, no, this was the only method of pain relief/fever reduction she had for kids. So that was a hard pass. (Fi was incredulous but delighted when we told her why we left without buying any medicine. “They wanted you to put it in my butt??”) Old German ladies don’t mess around either. On our second of two train trips that day, we’d reserved three seats in a block of four facing each other across a little table. There was some chaos as everyone on the crowded train got settled in, but the result was that two little old German women ended up sitting in the two seats opposite Fi and me, one of which was reserved for Dan, who was now relegated to the far side of the car. The seat stealers (who, it should be clear, knew exactly what they were doing) settled in shamelessly while I proceeded to feel sorry for myself, feeling under the weather and unjustly inconvenienced. Then one of the ladies disappeared for a bit (carefully covering her seat with her coat and bag first) and returned with a couple of sandwiches and two giant beers for her and her friend. And then I couldn’t help but feel the teeniest bit charmed. We arrived in Stubai Valley well enough—Fi still a little tired, me still a little ill. But then something marvelous happened: Within about 24 hours, everyone felt better. My mini-illness was gone, Fi was full of energy (and suddenly on her sweetest, most helpful, most delightful behavior) and we were all fired up to explore. Had Austria cured us? I have to tell you, with a view like the one from our ridiculously adorable Airbnb, it definitely seemed possible: Not even a big old crane can diminish this kind of beauty, people During our six days in the Austrian Alps, we took some stunning walks and saw some absolutely astonishing natural sights (more specifics on all that in Dan’s next post), but mostly, we just had a ton of fun. We explored by day, hot tubbed by afternoon (yes, there was a hot tub; it was the dreamiest), cooked by evening and watched the Sound of Music by night (it took us three full nights; that movie is way longer than I remembered). And through it all, we all felt well and that felt amazing. Dan translating a German kids’ book for Fi Making dinner The Sound! Of Music! One funny postscript: The delicious brunch restaurant we went to in Berlin had a silly toilet seat that Fi loved, so later that day, Cate took us to a home goods store in her neighborhood to peruse a full aisle of silly toilet seats. Inspirational toilet seat at brunch Aisle of ridiculous toilet seats A couple of days later, we arrived at our Austrian Airbnb only to be greeted by ONE OF THE VERY SAME SILLY TOILET SEATS: These meerkats look familiar? We of course texted Cate a picture immediately, to which she sagely replied, “this is an extremely important omen for your journey.” And friends, I think she may have been right.

One of the first things that I ever realized about Eve Online is that I am terrible at it. I get blown up probably once every few days. Sometimes by carelessly wandering into an NPC encounter I can’t hope to win, sometimes by trying to transport expensive mining materials through Low-sec. The best part of it all? I absolutely love being bad at this game. I’ve had more fun being bad at this game than I have being good at almost anything I can think of. Eve is challenging, evolving, and a rush. I’ve only been playing two months at this point and already the girlfriend is sick of hearing about it and my mind is preoccupied with visions of universal domination. I don’t play like most newbies; many people log in, skip the tutorial and spam chat, asking for the controls. First thing I do when playing a game is spend at least a week researching it. That’s how I found out that in Eve Online, I had a massive amount of options for money. These options were pared down a bit by the fact that I had no Skill Points. So I checked things out and found that the most likely options for me were to start mining, run missions, or join faction war. There are dozens and dozens and hundreds of ways I’m sure that you pro pilots will berate me with as soon as you read this, but those were the choices I saw two months ago. I looked at myself and my play style and realized that I was way too new and bad at this game to try to kill other people, and my first forays into trying to shoot at NPCs ended up being my first ship explosions. I realized very quickly that my options came down to mining. So I fitted up my venture, checked to see how long it would be until I could fly a Retriever, and headed to the first asteroid belt I could find. Then the second… Then the third… I quickly found that any belt I could find was likely to be picked clean. I had rolled Gallente and was still in Couster, the newbie zone, which made mining mildly problematic, because the resources get stripped quickly. I asked around in local what I should do, and somebody came up with a grand idea, I would begin mining in a High-sec island! For those of you who don’t know, a High-sec island is a piece of space realty that is .5 or higher security status, but the only way to get to it is by going through either Low-sec or Null-sec, effectively cutting it off from the rest of civilization by making it possible for PvPers to gate camp anything that comes through and forcing a bottleneck. This was a definite danger, but the advantage was often easy access to Low-sec ores and low population. It helped that I was only a few jumps from Jita. So I started mining early on in a Venture, doing rather nicely off of whichever ore was the most expensive around me. It took me a while, but eventually both my skills and my assets reached the point where I could get myself into a Retriever. I moved myself into an Iteron V with all the ore I had mined up to that point, and headed off to Jita. I have never been so nervous, my hands were shaking. My eyes are on the overview and scanning the space around me for the three jumps through Low-sec that I’ve got to make it to safety. At this point I’m too new to have trained MWD (Microwarpdrive) and to be honest I didn’t have a clue what they were for quite some time. I make it through the first two without an issue and I’m starting to relax when I jump towards the last gate. There, sitting on the gate, is the worst thing I could have possibly run into, a Rattlesnake. What’s worse? I’m on autopilot because at the time, I had no idea you could warp directly through a stargate. Now I’m sweating, I’m silently urging my little ship on, watching its giant mass slowly, impossibly slowly, inch forward. After about thirty seconds I realize something. The Scorpion is AFK, there’s no one there at all. I could have jumped for joy if I weren’t too lazy to get out of my chair. Still, there was fist pumping and silent cheers. I ended up getting through the jump safely with my cargo intact, making it all the way to Jita and selling off my meager offerings. After returning to the Sister’s of Eve base, I grab some items to move them back to base of High-sec island profits. I grabbed an extra Venture in case I lost one to rats, and a Catalyst to help me clear them out so I could get back to mining, plus a few mining upgrades for when I leveled up high enough to be able to use them. It wasn’t a whole lot of money in retrospect, but at the time I felt like I was carrying gold by the ton. I jumped back into the void, having made a tidy profit of about 35 million ISK selling the refined ore that I had made. I was pretty ecstatic; I knew that I didn’t have much money according to the movers and shakers of Eve, but this money would allow me to fly and fit a Retriever and be my stepping stone to making more money. I made my way past the errant Scorpion, throwing a silent prayer that he was still absent and a silent thanks when I made it past him the second time. I was a lot less nervous this time while I was jumping my way back home; I had traversed this side of the gauntlet once and had found it to be even less dangerous. I assumed that nobody would have made it past the Scorpion without either shooting him or having been shot by him. This of course, is the exact logic that got me shot by a Drake just one jump away from safety(http://zkillboard.com/detail/31506308/ ). My shields, armor and structure were gone before I had time to react, before I genuinely even knew what was going on. I was sitting back at the Sisters of Eve’s home base with 22 million ISK just disappeared into the breeze and nothing but a kill mail that I’d never be able to collect sitting in my inbox. I sat there looking at the screen for a moment, realizing I couldn’t even get to my original Venture to make some more money and try to get it back. Then I looked to my wallet, did the math, and realized that I was still winning. I’d made more money than they’d taken from me. I still had plenty of money to fly my mining ship that was going to make me tons of money and eventually allow me to throw bricks of ISK at PvPers until they exploded under the sheer weight. Or something like that. Thinking back on it, I’m pretty sure the Eve bug must have bitten me pretty damn hard.

Cheyeanne was unimpressed with a letter from President Obama and the first lady and left it on the couch as she left to go see friends. | Cheyeanne grabs the wall as she briefly loses her balance after a long day of disregarding the advice of her physical therapist and trying to run errands. “Bastard shot me in the back.” Cheyeanne was trying again. It was the same detail she had told her mother, but this time she was saying it to Raimey as he walked by her in the living room. If it couldn’t be Bonnie, or Dustin, or anyone else in a town that was moving on, then maybe Raimey would stop for a minute and listen. He had headphones in his ears. “Hey, sis,” he said. “He shot me in the back,” she said again. Raimey slowed down and pulled out one of his ear buds. “Can I get you something?” he asked. He started to walk away into the kitchen. “No. Jesus,” she said. “Sit down, will you?” Raimey came back into the room and leaned against the armrest of the couch. He took out his ear buds. “What’s up?” he said. “When you see me sitting here, I’m always thinking about the same thing,” she said, and then when he didn’t get up she began to tell him about her writing class: 35 or so people. And her seat: “back right corner, furthest from the door.” And her teacher: a man in his late 60s who had just distributed a handout when they heard two deafening bangs. A young man Cheyeanne didn’t recognize came through the classroom door carrying a backpack and two handguns. “I’ve been waiting for this,” he said, and before Cheyeanne could make sense of what he meant or what was happening, he had walked to within a few feet of the teacher, pointed the gun and pulled the trigger. “One shot and then blood,” Cheyeanne said. “Jesus,” Raimey said, putting down his remote-controlled car, sliding off the armrest onto the couch. “He was almost casual about it,” Cheyeanne said, describing how the shooter had ordered the students to gather in the center of the room. She began to tell Raimey how she had huddled next to her friend, Ana, and how she had watched from the floor as the gunman shot a woman pleading in her wheelchair, and then a man who said, “I’m so sorry for whatever happened that made you this way,” and then a woman who tipped over her desk and ducked for cover. He had kept going into his backpack to reload. Cheyeanne had stayed on the ground as blood pooled closer, and then as footsteps came closer, too. She had reached for Ana’s hand. She had felt that hand flinch when Ana got shot. She had heard the shooter move above her and then felt the burn of the bullet and wetness on her back. She had closed her eyes and wished for shock, but it had never come. “What’s your religion?” the shooter had asked, once it was clear she was still alive, and she had told him that she didn’t know, that she was 16 and needed time to figure it out. “I don’t want to die,” she said, and for some reason he had given her a chance. “Get up and I’ll shoot somebody else,” he said. She tried to push herself off the floor but her leg wouldn’t move. “Get up,” he said, but this time he was standing on her arm, pinning her down. “Get up,” he said again, but all she could do was lie there next to her injured friend and wait for the next bullet. She knew it was coming. Any second now. But instead what came were sounds at the classroom door, and the shooter ran over to look. Then there were voices down the hall, and more gunshots, and then the shooter was back into the classroom and pointing the gun at his head, pulling the trigger. “That’s when I got hysterical,” she told Raimey now. “I was coughing and spitting up all this blood. I basically knew I was going to die.” “Oh man. Chy,” Raimey said. He sat on the couch and looked over at her. She had her baseball bats nearby, her pink hunting knife, her replica gun. He had accused her once of exaggerating her trauma to take advantage of Bonnie’s sympathy. “Milking it,” he had said then. Now he wasn’t sure what to tell her. “I’m sorry,” he said, finally. “I had no idea you were strong like that.” She looked back at him. She adjusted her blanket. “I wasn’t strong. That’s the thing,” she said. “I couldn’t even get up. I just laid there, like nothing.”

MAPLE PARK, Ill. — A Maple Park family has launched a social media campaign asking that Warner Bros will allow their terminally ill father an advanced screening of ‘The Hobbit: The Battle of the Five Armies.’ Scott Stouffer has cancer of the endocrine system and is not expected to make it to the movie’s release date in December. The Stouffer family posted a video to YouTube saying that watching the ‘Hobbit’ films together has been a family tradition of theirs. The family hopes their creation of #HobbitMovieLastRequest will help spread word of their father’s dying wish to watch the movie before it’s released with his family. They are asking that people from all over social media help them make this request happen by using #HobbitMovieLastRequest. WGN News reached out to Warner Bros. and they released this response:

RUSH: I’m guessing that many of you do not know this, but there was another dump of 100 pages from the FBI yesterday relating to the investigation of Hillary Clinton. Folks, I’m here to tell you, there is no way this woman ought to be anywhere near the Oval Office. She ought not be anywhere near the White House. I don’t care what Donald Trump’s faults are. I don’t care what people think of Donald Trump. This woman has no business. I can’t believe, after looking at these documents — and I could do the whole program on these. And, who knows, I might. This is astounding what the FBI dumped yesterday. Why this hasn’t been dumped earlier is obvious. It is damning! It is destroying of Hillary Clinton, as a person, as a secretary of state. I go through all these emails. Have any of you who’ve spent any time going through any of the emails, part of the WikiLeaks dump, are you seeing anybody that works for her talk about what a nice person she is? I am not. I see references to friends of Bill that need this and friends of Bill that need that. I don’t see any references to friends of Hillary. I’m reading a bunch of people who are doing what they can to advance this woman’s career because it is their job and because through her they maybe get to advance what their agenda is; but I’m here to tell you, there doesn’t appear to be any personal attachment beyond Huma in any of these, including Podesta. You know, Podesta is actually a Bill guy. Podesta was Bill’s chief of staff sent over there, runs the Center for American Progress, a leftist think tank, and is now over there steering the Hillary campaign. I’m telling you, folks, it’s incredible. And this 100 pages — and most of it’s redacted. The stuff that they haven’t redacted is damning. It makes Watergate look like Romper Room. And I’m wondering, what in the hell were they doing at the FBI when they decided none of this was actionable? This goes so far beyond quid pro quo. Of course that’s a big, big deal. But all the stories that we heard back when the Clintons were in the White House about Hillary disliking the Marines, disrespecting the Marines, throwing ashtrays, apparently it’s true, because she did it at the State Department. She was so mean to people that State Department security agents, which they have, every bureaucracy has security agents that travel with the ambassadors, with the secretary of state. None of them wanted to work for her. They all quit over the four-year time she was in the secretary of state’s office. None of them. The people that ended up on her detail were brand-new and had no idea. They were the last ones to go there because everybody else begged off, because she was just plain and simple mean and rude and disrespectful. She was violating protocol at every turn. As an example, one of the parent protocols is that when the secretary of state’s traveling, you get off the plane and you always join the ambassador to whatever country you’re in. The ambassador gets in a limo with you, it’s a security thing, too, from the airport into the embassy or wherever you’re going. In other words, when you get off the plane in a foreign country, you are joined at the hip with the ambassador. She never would do it. The only person allowed to get closer to is Huma Abedin and whoever this guy that runs around with her, this big, big black guy who is there rubbing her back and telling her just keep talking, just keep breathing. He’s obviously some medic, and he’s constantly around her. Other than this guy and Huma Abedin, she just blows off everybody and everything. You can’t find any references, or very few, to people with any affection for her. They’re all working for her and they’re all trying to rig the game for her, but there doesn’t seem to be any affection. It’s amazing what’s in these 100 pages alone, and these are from the FBI. This is not WikiLeaks. This is not the result of a hack. They can’t say that the Russians are behind this. Now, I don’t think that any of this is gonna end up in the Drive-By Media. Because they are part of this. Well, that’s part of the WikiLeaks dump, too. But reporters are sending their stories to John Podesta for vetting before they’re published. One guy, Glenn Thrush from Politico says (paraphrasing), “Hey, look, now that I’ve become a (hack) for you guys, I’ve got this story. Here it is. Make sure it’s right before I run with it.” This is happening constantly, not just recently, but constantly with Mrs. Clinton. He’s not the only one. All of them, practically everybody in the mainstream media is on her team and coordinating with her and her campaign about how to do stories, what stories to do, what to leave out of them and so forth. BREAK TRANSCRIPT RUSH: Now to the FBI document dump. It’s a hundred pages and it’s dynamite, and it’s just astounding, folks. You look at this and you wonder how in the world did this woman not get charged? How in the world did this not get sent to the grand jury? Of course, we know. President Obama didn’t want it. He didn’t want any of it going anywhere because he’s implicated in it. He lied. He said he learned about Hillary’s private server while watching the news just like all of us, except that’s not true. He was regularly communicating with her via her private server and all this suspicious email activity using a fake name, a pseudonym, if you will. He was fully aware. And that’s why to go after her would have included him, and ah, ah, ah, ah, not going to happen. I did as much looking into this as I could, and I have to tell you, John Hinderaker at Power Line has probably put together the best summary of this. Yesterday “the FBI released another 100 pages relating to its investigation of Hillary Clinton’s conduct as Secretary of State.” This was not just an investigation that was limited to her emails and server. By definition, it ended up including her conduct as secretary of state. Why it has taken so long for the FBI to review, to redact, and publish — I mean, a hundred pages is a small quantity. It’s dynamite. What’s in these 100 pages, even what is not redacted is dynamite. But the question, why it has taken so long for the FBI to review, to redact and publish a hundred pages is inexplicable. The pages that were released yesterday are explosive, big-time explosive. Folks, it’s serious stuff. And it all — you can’t conclude anything other — this woman ought not be anywhere near the levels of power. This woman is as corrupt as anybody. This makes Watergate, as I say, look like Romper Room. Now, you may have seen headlines that Hillary’s State Department tried to pressure the FBI to say that various documents located on her home server were not classified. That was critical. It is critical, obviously, because one of Hillary’s lines of defense was to claim — falsely, as it turned out — that she never sent or received classified documents on her off-the-books email system. She said that in her first press conference that she held at the U.N., and she said it subsequent times. (imitating Hillary) “I never dealt with. I I I I I I never sent or received classified documents. It was a mistake, I’ll never do it again, I learned from it, but I never sent classified documents.” But to get the full impact, you have to see the relevant portions of the FBI investigation, and they’re all here, in all cases. They’ve been published and I’m gonna just read to you a so-called executive summary of them. “In the first page, an unidentified FBI employee says he was ‘pressured’ to change the classification of an email to render it unclassified. This pressure came from someone within the FBI.” This is in FBI documents. This is not somebody’s speculation. It was in what was released yesterday. You remember, now, she has denied trafficking in classified documents, sending or receiving. And yet in one of the pages yesterday, an unidentified FBI employee says he was pressured by someone within the FBI to change the classification of an email to render it unclassified. This person within the FBI “who said he had been contacted by Undersecretary of State Patrick Kennedy, who ‘had asked his assistance in altering the email’s classification in exchange for a “quid pro quo.”‘” You may see people denying this left and right at the State Department. It’s in the FBI documents. It happened! Somebody within the FBI called over to state, talked to Patrick Kennedy and asked for his help in changing the classification of the email in exchange for a quid pro quo. And what was the quid pro quo? “The quid pro quo was that, if the FBI would say the email was unclassified, the State Department would allow the FBI to ‘place more Agents in countries where they are presently forbidden.’ Subsequently, the interviewee was summoned to an ‘all agency’ meeting at the State Department to discuss the classification review of the Hillary Clinton emails. This fact,” and that’s what it is, “is astonishing: the meeting was attended by representatives of the State Department, the CIA, the Defense Intelligence Agency ‘and other government agencies,’ including, obviously, the FBI.” So you had an all-agency meeting at the State Department to discuss reviewing the classification of Hillary Clinton’s emails and changing from classified to unclassified, with all of these government agencies at the meeting. “Patrick Kennedy presided. Someone asked whether any of the Hillary emails that were being reviewed for production were classified. Kennedy replied, ‘Well, we’ll see.'” Meaning, when we get through here, after we’ve declassified a bunch of ’em, probably not. So they had classified emails, agency-wide meeting with all of these different elements of the government to discuss declassifying certain Hillary emails. Why would they do that? To protect her. To protect them. To protect Obama. There were classified emails. She was trafficking in classified email on her unsecure server that she had lied about and denied doing, that Obama claimed he knew nothing about when he did. And so it was an all-agency meeting where they circled the wagons and after the fact they’re gonna change from classified to unclassified email by email by email in exchange for a quid pro quo for the FBI. “Following the all agency meeting, Undersecretary of State Kennedy renewed his effort to pressure the FBI to change its classification of the document in question. The FBI representative wouldn’t budge.” The FBI said, “No, we are not gonna help you declassify this classified document.” “So Kennedy asked who else at the agency he could talk to. The interviewee gave the name of Michael Steinbach.” All of this was in these hundred pages dumped yesterday. “The interviewee then participated in a call with Kennedy and Steinbach, in which Kennedy ‘continued to pressure the FBI to change the classified markings on the email to unclassified.’ Steinbach refused. What happened next is — deserves to be, anyway — a bombshell. “Prior to ending the conversation, Kennedy,” of the State Department, “asked whether the FBI or State would conduct the public statements on the matter. Steinbach advised Kennedy that the FBI would not comment publicly on the matter.” Well, I mean, folks, right there is corruption admitted to. Here you had an all-agency meeting to discuss the declassification of an email in order to protect Hillary’s claim that she had not trafficked in them. And everybody at the meeting admits to and knows what’s going on. And the FBI says, “Don’t worry, we’re not gonna talk about it. Steinbach of the FBI told Kennedy we would not comment publicly on the matter.” Meaning, whatever you do, nobody’s gonna know about it. We’re not gonna blow the whistle on you. Whatever you do, go ahead, we’re not talking. “That was enough for the astonishingly corrupt Hillary Clinton. This is what happened next: The conference call ended and, according to [ ], the Associated Press (AP) published the story within the hour. Former Secretary of State Clinton appeared in front of the press shortly thereafter to deny having sent classified emails on her private email server.” So before she goes out and speaks, they had this agency-wide meeting to declassify something classified, it ends up happening in exchange for quid pro quo. The FBI sitting in on the meeting, “Okay, we’re not gonna say a word.’ That’s the signal to Hillary to go out and lie that she had never sent classified emails on her private email server. What you have here, folks, is a clear pattern of corruption that, as I say, makes Watergate look like Romper Room. Hillary’s aide at the State Department, Patrick Kennedy, tried to bribe the FBI with the promise of a quid pro quo, tried to bribe the FBI to change the classification. It was a Benghazi document, by the way. What’s being discussed here is a Benghazi document. So Patrick Kennedy, Hillary’s aide, tried to bribe the FBI to change the classification of a Benghazi document so as to enable Hillary to lie and say that she did not send or receive classified information on her illegal home server. The FBI refused. James Comey was not involved at this stage, by the way. This was before the serious investigation even began. But they learned of it. Comey learned of this later on. He wasn’t involved at this point. “Hillary’s aide then asked whether the FBI would be saying anything publicly about the classification issue,” what they just had, the all-agency meeting. “Once assured that the FBI would be silent –” Steinbach said don’t worry, we’re not saying a word “– Hillary took the stage and alleged publicly, and falsely, that she never used her illegal home server to send or receive classified information.” They had just taken a classified document and agreed to declassify it just because they needed to for her, not because it deserved to be. It was still a classified bit of information, but they declassified it, enabling her to go out and lie. This is just one document. How many critically important documents have been given the same treatment, have been discussed in the same way? The State Department has put some documents, archived them way back down in the basement, nobody to ever see them again. Folks, this is just one element of what’s in this hundred page dump. But this one, this story illustrates the full-fledged corruption of Hillary Clinton’s State Department, working with the FBI. She says she never trafficked in classified data, sending it or receiving it. She said that after an agency-wide meeting, an all-agency meeting in which a document about Benghazi was declassified. Richard Nixon only dreamed of this kind of stuff. On the surface it may not sound like it’s that big a deal when treated to governments doing things, our government especially in private, prying eyes don’t see it. She’s been lying through her teeth. Everybody on her side, everybody has been lying about what went on, trying to maintain the idea that she never trafficked in classified documents. She did, she knew she did. She knew she was lying about it. She corrupted a bunch of agencies to collude and get together to change the classification on her behalf so that she could go out and lie. She was enabled as a liar with the mass participation of a bunch of other government agencies. BREAK TRANSCRIPT RUSH: Guess what, my friends? Obama’s got a press conference, or just finished one with the prime minister of Italy in the Rose Garden. He was asked about what I just shared with you. Question by Kevin Freking of the AP. “Mr. President, does it distress you that folks at the FBI and State Department talked about the proper level of classification of emails that were on Secretary Clinton’s server? Would you acknowledge the appearance of impropriety and should the State Department officials look into this further.” OBAMA: You’ve heard directly from both the FBI and the State Department that the notion or the accounts that have been put out there are just not true. And, you know, you can question them again, but based on what we have seen, heard, learned, some of the more sensational implications or appearances, as you stated them, aren’t based on actual events and based on what actually happened and I think derive from sort of overly broad characterizations of interactions between the State Department and the FBI that happen a lot. RUSH: Holy smokes. OBAMA: It happened between agencies. RUSH: He’s flat-out calling everybody involved in this a liar. He’s saying it never happened. The evidence is from the FBI, documents released from the FBI’s investigation into Hillary Clinton’s conduct as secretary of state, deriving from and originating with her email server. So here’s Mr. Obama who told us that he didn’t know about any of this until he heard about it on the news, which is a lie because he was emailing Mrs. Clinton. By definition, everything he sends is classified. Everything the president sends, everything he writes, it’s classified at origin by virtue of the fact he’s sending it. (imitating Obama) “I didn’t know ’til I read about in the news, just like all of you.” He was using a fake name! The man who said you like your doctor, keep your doctor, you like your plan, keep your plan. The man that told you your premiums are gonna be reduced $2,500. The man has lied I don’t know how many times about how many things. He and Hillary are in a race to see who’s the king or queen of lying, plus we know this is a corrupt bunch! He’s just called everybody involved — (imitating Obama), “Oh, they have these interagency meetings all the time, you know, these rivalries, they’ve already denied it.” The allegations were not even made. The information comes from the FBI in a 100-page document dump yesterday, and he just called everybody involved a liar. (imitating Obama) “It isn’t true. They said it didn’t happen.” Come on, folks, come on. We know what’s going on. BREAK TRANSCRIPT RUSH: For the record, ladies and gentlemen, there are four people, at least four people who have talked about the pressure to take a classified Benghazi document and make it unclassified. Two of the people at the FBI, two of the people the State Department. Four people independently have said they were pressured to do this. Barack Obama has just called them liars as well. BREAK TRANSCRIPT RUSH: Well, there seems to be some confusion where these hundred pages came from. They are official. And the best I have been able to determine is that the FBI released these 100 pages that everybody’s talking about. (interruption) Well, I usually am. But some people are saying, “No, no, no. The FBI didn’t officially do it. Somebody at the FBI did it ’cause they’re ticked off and they think Hillary should be arrested.” In other words, somebody’s trying to tell me that a rogue element released documents. Everything I’ve seen is the FBI itself did this and that Comey was not aware or involved. Comey wasn’t involved in this all-agency meeting that took place. Look, let me summarize this and try to tell you why this matters. This is standard operating procedure for Bill and Hillary Clinton. This is a woman who destroyed subpoenaed documents in a court case way back in the nineties. These are the people that hid billing records and other relevant documents sought by a court for years that mysteriously turned up on a table in the Map Room in the White House during their first term in the White House. Then the whole Lewinsky scandal happened, and we know how everything was — if it hadn’t been for that blue dress — seriously, folks. I’m not trying to be funny here. If it hadn’t been for that blue dress Bill Clinton would have gotten away with saying (Clinton impression), “I never had sex with that woman, not a single time, not ever, and I never asked anybody to lie,” he would have gotten away with that. We would have never known the truth. If it hadn’t been for the fact that Linda Tripp, I think it was, convinced Lewinsky to give up that blue dress, and she kept the blue dress because it was historical, it was a souvenir. She loved the guy and having his semen was, I guess, a memento. So there it was. This is how the Clintons operate. They accuse. This is a woman who was thrown off the Nixon Watergate committee as a Democrat lawyer. She was thrown off by Peter Rodino, the chairman, because she was trying to engender things that would deny Nixon and his legal team constitutional rights during the Watergate investigation. This woman is every bit the Alinskyite that Barack Obama is. She was an Alinskyite before Obama was. Her thesis, and she was at Wellesley, was on Alinsky. But the woman is dishonest. She is dishonest and she is corrupt. Look at the Clinton Foundation. This is an organization set up to take donations in the multiple millions of dollars from foreign governments and foreign wealthy individuals while she was secretary of state and while she’s campaigning for president. Now, folks, the people giving the Clintons money are not doing it ’cause they like her. They’re not giving her $300,000 to make speeches at banks because, wow, she says such interesting things. They are buying the Clintons. They are buying access because the Clintons have made it known their entire public life they can be bought. The Clintons do not do much of anything aboveboard. (coughing) I need to take a swig here. And of course I can’t allow any dead air, so pardon me a minute here. I’m sorry, folks, but you have to do that. Dead air can trigger some of our stations to go to commercial break. Can’t permit that. So pardon the rudeness. It’s kind of like rattling the paper. At any rate, so there’s a history, a documented history. Now, if you’re a Millennial — you know what I saw about Millennials the other day? It was last night doing show prep for today. Millennials do not know of the existence and the nature and the truth of Soviet communism. It’s not been taught to them. So “Mr. Gorbachev, tear down this wall,” the Berlin Wall falling, the Cold War and its meaning and relevance all during the sixties is irrelevant to them. They simply don’t know. They haven’t been taught about it. And that’s, of course, by design. If you’re not gonna teach communism, if you’re not gonna teach what it really is, it makes selling socialism easy. This is exactly what they’ve done. Same token here. Millennials, a young group of people, do not know of the Clintons of the nineties. To you and me, we know it like the back of our hand. But young people don’t. And some low-information people don’t as well. So, in addition to all of the things starting with Whitewater, all moving forward, everything the Clintons have done — well, can’t say “everything” — the vast majority of what the Clintons have done has had many purposes, but at the top of the list is personal enrichment. Do you know that she also stole furniture from the State Department when she left? That’s in this document dump. She stole furniture from the State Department when she left just like they stole furniture from the White House when they left. She just picked up and took what she wanted. Violates all kinds of protocols. Would not hang around with ambassadors, would not travel with them, would not give them the perk of appearing with the secretary of state, would not let them fly in the plane, would not them ride in the limousine. Only Huma Abedin was allowed body contact. Nobody else. The security agents for the State Department all wanted to quit her detail. She was so rude, mean, disrespectful, none of them wanted to work for her over the course of her four-year term as secretary of state, which comports with everything we’d heard about the way she treated Secret Service agents in the White House and Marines and other uniformed military personnel. The woman is a viper and she’s dishonest and corrupt. And it’s the way of the world in that world the Clintons occupy. So just to review, hundred pages released by the FBI yesterday clearly detail an all-agency meeting wherein the State Department and a guy named Patrick Kennedy attempted to persuade other government agencies, including the FBI and the CIA and the Defense Intelligence Agency and others to go along with changing the classification of, in this case, one particular document detailing Benghazi, from classified to unclassified, so that Mrs. Clinton could go out and do a press conference and claim that she had never trafficked in classified information. And in exchange for doing this, the FBI was offered, in exchange for doing this, an increased presence in foreign countries to do investigations and other things. You remember what the Khobar Towers in Saudi Arabia were blown up, the FBI’s right there investigating, because American citizens were dead. So the FBI can go, but they are limited in what they can do. State Department has purview. So a carrot was dangled that allowed the FBI a little bit more access and power in exchange for going along with declassifying a classified document. Four people — two state, two FBI — have added to what’s in these hundred pages claiming they were pressured to go along with this. Now, President Obama just had a press conference concluded recently at the White House with the Italian prime minister in which he was asked about this. Now, there’s two sound bites. I played one, I’m gonna play it again, and then the second bite because they go together. So here’s the question. “Mr. President, does it distress you that people at the FBI and the State Department talked about the proper level of classification of emails that were on Secretary Clinton’s server? Would you acknowledge the appearance of impropriety, and should the State Department look into this further?” OBAMA: You’ve heard directly from both the FBI and the State Department that the notion or the accounts that have been put out there are just not true. And, you know, you can question them again, but based on what we have seen, heard, learned, some of the more sensational implications or appearances, as you stated them, aren’t based on actual events and based on what actually happened and I think derive from sort of overly broad characterizations of interactions between the State Department and the FBI that happen a lot. It happened between agencies. RUSH: The short version of that is (imitating Obama), “It didn’t happen. It’s all made up, not true, uh, these things happen all the time.” So he’s denying, calling people liars. This is in an FBI document dump. This is not something that some right-wing website found and is publishing. This is from the Obama FBI. And he’s claiming everybody involved — and there are independent people. As I say, four others who are claiming they have been pressured to go along with the declassification of classified documents on Mrs. Clinton’s server. I can imagine some of you, “Rush, what does that matter? There’s so many other things, what does it matter?” It matters because, folks, it’s a culmination of things. The cumulative effect of behavioral patterns here that indicate this woman is dishonest, is corrupt and has no business even taking the oath of office because she cannot honestly do it. She has no business being president of the United States. She uses the power that you get as an elected official or appointed official at the upper echelons of U.S. government to artificially alter and change things in her favor outside of courts of law, things that no one else could do or try. Things for which we have forced a president to resign simply because he thought he wanted to. Richard Nixon and Watergate, that’s nothing compared to what has actually gone on here, but it gets better. BREAK TRANSCRIPT RUSH: Here’s the phones. We go back to Alice in New Hyde Park in New York. Great to have you. I’m really glad you waited. Hi. CALLER: Thank you for taking my call, and thank you for all you’re doing. I think you’re doing a fantastic job at making this all surface. And what I want to say is that I agree with (unintelligible) at the end of the FBI investigation Comey saying there was no evidence of Hillary’s intent. Doesn’t this prove Hillary’s intent? RUSH: Oh, for crying out loud, great point. Abso-freaking-lutely. The whole no — look, Alice, we know — I’ve got 15 things I want to say here at once, I gotta dial it back. We know, common sense, intelligence guided by experience tells us before we know any of this that Hillary Clinton intended to do exactly what she did! This is just confirming it! And it wasn’t just Hillary Clinton. There were all kinds of people intending to rig this whole classified versus unclassified documents on her email thing, on her server thing so that she could go out and tell a lie and get away with it. They were actually having meetings over declassifying classified documents. This hundred page document dump from the FBI yesterday, folks, it’s loaded. I’ve only gotten to one aspect of it, and that’s the big meeting. But the stories here Hillary insulted Democrats, flouted security protocols. I’ve run through those. She was so arrogant, her own security could not stand her. These are the agents for the State Department that kept quitting, refusing to put up with her abuse. FBI docs confirm Hillary treated security detail so rudely that senior agents avoided working for her. She would not travel with the ambassador at any foreign location she went to. It’s protocol the ambassador meets you at the airport, gets in the limo with you, goes into town, it’s ceremonial. She blew ’em all off and only Huma Abedin was ever allowed to get close to her. And you know the doctor, whoever this guy is that runs around patting her on the back and saying, “Keep breathing. It’s gonna be okay.” It’s devastating. It is devastating stuff that has been dumped and I don’t know how anybody conclude that she had no intent. Now, this hundred pages, there’s also a question, was this part of the investigation, did Comey, was he involved at this stage when these things were actually happening. But how he didn’t know if he wasn’t, I don’t — look. Another one of the 15 things I wanted to say at one time. We now know that — and we should have followed our instincts all along. I told you all along I never thought this woman was gonna get indicted. It wasn’t gonna happen! I never believed for a minute that the Democrat Party running this country right now with Barack Obama in the White House was gonna let his Department of Justice indict her. Remember we had all these people that were talking, “Well, he really doesn’t like her, and this drip, drip, drip, drip,” I even fell for it for a while. “This drip, drip, drip, drip, drip stuff, he is trying to destroy her, he’s trying to harm her.” BS. He was participating with her in the trafficking of unsecured documents on her server using a fake name. This was never gonna go anywhere because it would have included him. And let’s face it, folks, Barack Obama has become what we’re told Nixon wanted to arrange for himself. Nixon wanted to use all of the agencies of government for his benefit and to be able to use them to harm his enemies. Well, it’s happened. It is happening. Richard Nixon never even got close to it. People just don’t trust what comes out of Washington these days, and for good reason. It’s shame. All of these once highly reputed institutions now living under a cloud of doubt by the very people who often have relied on them for strength and faith within the government and the fact that everything was on the up and up. It really is a devastating thing. Look, the bottom line for this, as far as I’m concerned, is that we know enough now to know that Hillary Clinton has no business being elected president. All this talk about how Trump is this or Trump is that, the level of corruption and dishonesty here and the using powers of government on your enemies and using them to alter the outcome of events? Yeah, you might be a cynic and say, “Rush, it’s always happened.” Not to this degree. This is the kind of stuff that the conspiracy theorists used to tell us about that people would laugh at. But now we’re living it.

Silos of Data - Paul Kukk Skip to content Home Publications Videos About Me Privacy Policy CopperHill Consulting Paul Kukk Data does Not Lie Category: Silos of Data Who and what does no business intelligence solution impact Posted on May 21, 2019 by Paul Kukk Having no business intelligence solution in place impacts many things and many people. It impacts your bottom line, it impacts your customers, it impacts your employees, and it impacts the understanding of your business right now and in the future. Your bottom line With having no business intelligence solution in place, a business cannot see the full picture on what is happening. The business cannot see where all its money is being spent, it cannot see what areas are most inefficient, they cannot see what area they are most efficient in and why and then drive those efficiencies to other areas of their business. They slow down and prevent the business from making real-time data driven decisions. Without seeing the big picture, the business can be limited or just wrong on actions that are taken that they believe are good for the business. All of these reasons as well as many more impacts your business’s bottom line. Your customers Having no business intelligence solution does impact your customer. I get a lot of feedback on this one and it is usually from the people that do have the silos of data running within their business. They want to feel better by giving me excuses on how not having a business intelligence solution does not impact their customers. I always tell people that if you cannot get a full picture, a full understanding of the journey a customer takes from the start of the relationship to the end of their relationship within your business you sir or mam will never see its full potential. With so many touch points that a customer could have with a business you have the potential of creating many silos of data. These silos can be in reference to marketing, selling customers additional services, interaction with customer support and even the customer on-boarding process. All these systems and any others should be integrated in order for you to get a clear understanding of the experiences your customers will go through. The silos of data, the lack of the single source of truth will hamper that understanding and the business will never understand the customer’s journey. Picture this: a stack chart and on the X axis you have date values representing the last two weeks, and on the Y axis you have a numeric representation of hours. Within the charting you have multiple columns (different colors) representing different touch points that a new customer had to take in order to become a customer and then received their service from your business. Within seconds you can see where you can improve the process and where the process is working. That is just one powerful reason on how business intelligence can impact your customers and having a single source of truth can help your business. Your employees How does no business intelligence solution impact your employees? Without a business intelligence solution, you have silo’s that can affect employees when other departments within your business do not wish to share their data. Think about how many times have you heard or have been involved when a department within a business has identified a problem but cannot do anything about it. I have seen a business identify a problem and could not take the appropriate measures to correct that problem because of silos of data. This can be corrected by doing several things. First, leadership must create a unified front and be creative and tactical in their approach. Work towards a common goal. I know each department has its own responsibilities but the business should have one shared vision — the business’s mission statement. Create the data governance group because that will encourage collaboration, build repeatable processes, share measures across the business, and the group will act as one team pushing to that common goal. Most humans instinctively will get behind a common goal and will feel more united when they can share the same measure of excellence to be obtained with the person next to them. Your Single Source of Truth Posted on April 15, 2019 August 9, 2019 by Paul Kukk Purchase The Kindle Edition Purchase The Paperback Edition Your Single Source of Truth is a quick-read for busy business and IT professionals struggling to create a Business Intelligence solution. Packed with advice, proven methods, and real-world uses cases, this book provides the knowledge to get you not only started but to keep your Business Intelligence solution going. This book is intended to help you understand how a business can deal with their epidemic data problems and see a bigger clearer picture from the data they are collecting. There are mountains of data being collected in many different departments each with their own transactional system (silos). And each silo is not being joined to give a bigger and clearer picture to the business. This is a data centric world and businesses are collecting and saving data at an enormous rate but most are doing nothing with that data. They are not learning from the data and not making actionable and informed decisions from the data. Business Intelligence and silos of data is not just a small business issue — it’s an issue that all different size businesses are facing and are having problems getting their arms around. Whether it is lack of resources, low priority, or a lack of understanding that there is a problem. I believe if I can explain the issue, analyze it and point companies in the direction in solving their Business Intelligence issues then I would get to see many businesses grow and flourish. I want to help businesses answer those questions that I believe every business wants to answer: How is my business doing right now? How is my business doing compared to how it did in the past? Are all my areas of my business performing well? Which areas can have better efficiencies? What are my customers thinking and how can I better serve them? This is just a very small sample of questions that I know a business intelligence solution can help businesses answer and this book will help get you started. Join Goggle and marketing data to get big picture of your prospects. The why and how Posted on November 18, 2018 November 19, 2018 by Paul Kukk The Why: When you look at each silo of data individually you do not get a complete picture of what a visitor or prospect is interested in, you only see what that one piece of the puzzle is showing you. You can get good information from your Google Analytics data (silo) when you look at it by itself and you can get good information from your marketing data (silo) when you look at that data by itself. What I am writing about in this blog is bringing those silos of data together to give you more insight into a potential customers journey, like when you put pieces of a puzzle together you see the picture clearer. Lets say that your business is utilizing Pardot as its marketing tool to not only manage email campaigns that are guiding potential customers to landing pages that are hosted on your web site but you are also gather customer information from forms that are being embedded within your business’s website. Wouldn’t it be great to see what content that prospect was looking at prior to and after they filled out a form on your website or where did they navigate to after getting to that landing page from one of your email campaigns? You have all the information in Pardot first name, last name, email address, etc and now you would be able to gather additional intelligence about them by what they are viewing within your business’s web site. You could even use that information to send out more direct campaigns based on the new knowledge that you have obtained from joining the data. For instance the prospect was on your website for 5 minutes and they visited the integration, business analytics, and warehouse pages. I know what I want to send to that prospect now. The How: You have to join that data somewhere so lets bring that data into a warehouse. I used the CopperHill AIR Platform to run all the jobs that I created with Talend to move the data from Google and Pardot into the AIR Warehouse. Lets start with the steps I took with Google first. I opened Google Query Explorer which is a tool that allows you to play with the Core Reporting API by building queries to get data from your Google Analytics views. This tool allows you to set different metrics, dimensions, sorts, filters and segments so that you can see the end results before applying them into your data integration tool. Once I got the queries working just as I wanted them to and the data looked good, I move those exact settings inside my Talend tool. With Talend I had to install the Google Analytics Component as it is not part of the base install. The component is free and very easy to install. Once I setup the component and deployed it to the AIR Platform I was immediately streaming data. Below is just an example of one call to Google’s Core Reporting API within the job. I repeated the same steps for each call I wanted to make to Google Analytics API and all the data transfers were handled inside that one job. The next step was to get Pardot data flowing. Pardot does have a great API that you can access and read your marketing data from. Again I used the AIR Platform to run the job that I created in Talend to move this data out of Pardot and into the AIR warehouse. Let me say this, you do have to have knowledge of the Pardot API or creating this job can be a little tricky. What I did was setup a REST call to each of the Pardot objects that I wanted to receive data from and store within the AIR warehouse. I have attached a portion of the job I configured to retrieve data from the Pardot campaign object. As you can see the setup and configuration is a little more complex then the call to the Google API but the data is flowing just as fast. Now that all the data from the two sources Google and Pardot are streaming into the AIR warehouse we can create the reports showing exactly what we stated in The Why section. This thought process and build out can be applied to really any marketing tool that a business is using and join that to your Google Analytics data. If you want to gather great actionable information around your prospects then joining google and marketing data is definitely a great idea for you and your business. Finish the data puzzle so you can see the big picture and just do not look at the pieces by themselves. Silos of data Posted on November 9, 2018 November 20, 2018 by Paul Kukk What are silos of data? I define silos of data as points of data that have been collected and being stored in many locations that could bring value to your business. Many times these silos of data store similar to identical information. Usually these systems are considered transactional systems that employees and/or customers are entering data into every single day. These transactional systems typically have different databases that are storing data related to your business and can be hosted on and off premise. Other silos of data that you will need to consider are spreadsheets, word documents, text files that are being maintained by employees on their personal computers. Employees (which includes everyone from the CEO down) are most likely storing data that could be important to the business. Identifying and coming up with a solution to collect all that data will not only help give you the big picture of the business but also protect one of the businesses greatest assets their data. I would like you to think about not only where all the silos of data are and how valuable it would be once connected but also be thinking about how that data is being protected and who else is viewing that data (if that does not keep you up at night, I do not know what will). I typically tell my clients, ask yourself two questions every time you walk out your business doors. Is the data on my laptop important to the business and/or sensitive in nature? If it is, how is that data being protected on my laptop? This is an area were I think a lot of businesses fall short and not only do they not have policies in place but do not even think of this situation. I have seen so many times employees storing sensitive information on their laptops, walk out their companies doors without even considering the security and responsibility that they should have in protecting that data.

Great Britain’s Tim Don posted a 7:40:23 at today’s Ironman South American Championship in Florianopolis, Brazil to become the fastest athlete to ever finish an Ironman-branded race. The former ITU star put together a 44:16 swim, a 4:06:56 bike and a 2:44:46 marathon to post the incredible 7:40:23 finishing time and break Canadian Lionel Sanders’ record of 7:44:29, which was just set at last November’s Ironman Arizona. In addition to the record, Don earned the championship victory with an astounding 25-minute margin over second-place finisher Kyle Buckingham of South Africa and will be guaranteed a slot for October’s Ironman World Championship. Don’s performance is part of an overall trend of faster iron-distance finishing times. The record prior to Sanders’ Arizona win stood at 7:45:58 (Marino Vanhoenacker in 2011) for over five years. Germany’s Jan Frodeno also recently broke the overall record for fastest iron-distance race. He posted a 7:35:39 at July’s Challenge Roth (a non-Ironman event) to break the previous record of 7:41:33 of countryman Andreas Raelert, which was also set in Roth. Check back for a photo gallery from Florianopolis. [twitter url=”https://twitter.com/IRONMANLive/status/868890282258866176″ align=”center”]

Image credit: flickr/Ian Brown Many developers feel this is the language to start with Earlier this month, ITworld blogger Matthew Mombrea wrote an interesting post about which programming language is the best one to learn first (his choice: Java or C#). Not surprisingly, it generated some great discussion, as did his follow-up post about why he doesn't recommend JavaScript as a first programming language. Since this is a question that often gets debated, I decided to see if I could divine a general consensus among developers about which programming language is the best one to learn first. I looked at the answers offered in a dozen articles, such as the comments on Matthew’s posts, and the responses to the questions on such forums as Quora and Stack Exchange. The full list of sources I used is at the end of this post. For each one, I only considered answers that suggested a single language (ignoring the “it depends” answers, or ones that offer multiple languages). I then totaled up the number of times a language was suggested as the best one to learn first, also adding up votes that answer received from readers (all of the sources I used allowed people to vote answers up or down). In the end, those dozen sources gave me a little under 500 votes. Based on the votes I counted, these were the three clear top choices for best programming language to learn first: 3. JavaScript JavaScript was singled out for providing a good grounding in basic programming concepts and for its simplicity. “... JavaScript is an excellent engine for playing around with dynamically and learning general concepts that apply to many other languages (things like variables, objects, strings, functions, etc.).” chaiguy “I see JavaScript as the modern equivalent of BASIC. ...because of its simplicity, it is a great language for learning fundamental programming concepts.” Greg Brown It was also cited as a good choice because of its forgiving syntax. “The loosely typed nature of JavaScript makes the syntax somewhat more forgiving than traditional OOP languages, but most of the syntactical rules are similar enough to C++ or Java that a transition to the more formal languages wouldn’t be too difficult.” Brian MacDonald Finally, people voted for JavaScript because of its ubiquitousness these days and the fact that you can use it for some many things. “Alongside html and css you can create any sort of website/webapp. Because of Phonegap you can use it to create mobile apps for Android, iPhone/iPad, and Windows 8. And using Node.js you can write all your server side code. You can literally create all relevant software with javascript (along with some html/css). It is absolutely the one programming language to learn. No question about it.” i_drift 2. C At the other end of the spectrum, many voted for C, despite some of the difficulties in using it, because of the solid foundation it will provide and that it will make learning other languages easier. “If you want to build a solid foundation from the beginning, go for C.... Introduction to the concepts of pointers and raw memory management will be invaluable later in your career.” MM01 “Its basis of a lot of other languages. The computer equivalent of Latin. Once, you learn C the other languages are easier to pick up.” Alan Cohen “I feel like learning C is like learning to drive on a manual transmission -- once you get the hang of it it really isn't that hard, and once you're good at it you'll be confident in your ability to drive any car any time.” John Biesnecker Many also felt that trying to learn C was a good way to find out right from the start whether you’re cut out to be a programmer. “If people get scared of programming with C, then they are not meant to be programmers.” luis.espinal 1. Python Based on these data, though, Python was the clear top choice for the best programming language to learn first. The low barrier to entry and ease of use was the biggest factor, with many feeling that it will help keep people engaged and excited as they begin to learn programming. “I would recommend to start with a "dynamic language" such as Python for your first language. You can get started easily and immediately build something that is actually usable. This is the crucial factor in learning to program. If you see immediate results and progress, you will be motivated to continue.” Sridatta Thatipamala “Python, because you do not need a compiler and it's very VERY easy to run your programs and test.” timgray Like JavaScript, Python was also chosen because its simple and flexible syntax. “From my experience I feel that Python is an invaluable tool for beginning programmers, as its relatively simple syntax allows the novice to focus on programming concepts rather than fretting over semicolons and braces before her Hello World program will even run.” Frank Harvey “I know python is very different, but it avoids having you to learn stuff which is specific to a language in particular, like compilation, includes, headers, compilers, IDEs, etc.” jokoon “... I think Python is better for newcomers because of its emphasis on consistency and readability.“ Christopher Lin Finally, Python was also credited with teaching good programming fundamentals. “Python teaches essential indentation habits to newbies, which is great. I think any language with mandatory indentation is good for new programmers.“ Thomas Eding Beyond these top three choices, the rest of the top ten were: 4. Pascal, 5. C#, 6. Scheme, 7. Visual Basic, 8. C++, 9. Assembly and 10. Scratch. However, the vote totals after the top three languages were too small, in my opinion, to put too much stock in them. There you have it. Python seems to be the way to go if you’re starting to learn how to code. Anybody disagree? I’m guessing, yes... Sources: What's the best programming language to learn first?

The White House workers’ summit today is focusing on declining union membership. It ignores a much larger problem facing many workers: they need a government permission slip to work. Without one they can go to jail. This happened to Isis Brantley, a Dallas hair braider. In 1997 police arrested her for operating without a cosmetology license. Undercover officers came into Brantley’s salon and “carted [her] off to jail like a common criminal.” The mother of five went to jail for not having a license that required over 1,500 hours of training (including four exams)– none of which covered African hair braiding. Advertisement Advertisement The arrest left Brantley homeless, jobless, and a passionate advocate for the rights to practice her craft. Ten years later, the Texas legislature “fixed” the problem by creating a 35-hour hair-braiding license inserted under the barbering statute. Although free to braid hair, Brantley was still bound by burdensome barbering laws. She wanted to teach other women how to braid hair. To do that, she had to become a licensed barber instructor and create a barber college — again filled with requirements that had nothing to do with hair braiding. Advertisement Why should the government stop people who are willing and able to work? Why force them into poverty? Thankfully, Brantley’s story had a happy ending. On June 10, 2015, with the help of the Institute for Justice, Texas governor Greg Abbott signed a bill fully deregulating the practice of natural hair-braiding in the state. Brantley’s hard work and advocacy paid off. However, Brantley’s situation is not an isolated one. Nearly one-third of all jobs in the economy require some sort of license. Advertisement Many of these licenses are equally unnecessary: florists, interior designers, and barbers. Too many Americans like Brantley cannot get ahead because they lack pointless government permission slips. This is a much greater issue for most workers than organized labor’s organizing difficulties.

Air-quality officials in the oil-refinery-dotted and highway-laced San Francisco Bay Area committed Wednesday to substantially reduce greenhouse gas emissions from the famously progressive region. Bay Area Air Quality Management District leaders directed agency staff [PDF] to begin the work needed to reduce emissions to 80 percent below 1990 levels by 2050. The unanimous vote by the air district’s directors was celebrated by environmentalists, including 350.org and the Sierra Club, which described it as “historic.” “This is a little more significant than most climate action plans, in that the air district has real regulatory teeth,” 350.org Bay Area spokesperson Rand Wrobel told Grist. “This resolution will mean that the five refineries in the Bay Area could basically not function, as they produce some 40 percent of the stationary source industrial and commercial emissions.” The heavily polluting refineries could be forced to cut output or vastly improve their environmental performance at a time when they are preparing to begin processing dirty tar-sands oil from Canada. In 2005, California’s then-Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger ordered the state to reduce emissions 80 percent by 2050 compared with 1990 levels. Which is nice, but actually meeting that requirement requires a helluva lot of planning, legislation, and subsequent enforcement at the state, regional, and local levels. Now the Bay Area is stepping up to that challenge. A new study by Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory shows that California is on track to meet the goal of reducing emissions back to 1990 levels by 2020 — but the 2050 goal will be more elusive. California is reducing its emissions through a variety of aggressive steps, including a carbon-trading system and a requirement that utilities generate some of their electricity from renewables (which has led to the development of some of the world’s biggest solar farms in the state’s deserts). But the researchers found that bold new technologies and policies are needed to meet the ambitious 2050 goal, especially because the state is projected to experience significant population growth over the next four decades. The resolution adopted by the air district’s board on Wednesday lays out a 10-point plan for how the Bay Area will meet that goal. It includes expanding pollution enforcement, improving emissions monitoring and forecasting, and conducting new studies into the Bay Area’s energy future. Most importantly, it requires agency staff to develop a regional climate action strategy and accelerate the development of planned air-pollution rules. Here’s hoping these kinds of ambitions spread far and wide — like a plume of pollution from a Chevron refinery smokestack. Correction: Rand Wrobel of 350.org misspoke when he said that refineries are responsible for 40 percent of stationary-source greenhouse gas emissions in the Bay Area. He meant to say that refineries are responsible for 40 percent of commercial and industrial emissions, or 25 percent of stationary-source emissions.

There has been a lot of clamor about the Environmental Protection Agency’s (EPA) proposed regulation of greenhouse gases, and a lot of it has been just that—clamor. But one area has been controversial for good reason: the EPA missed the mark on nuclear energy. The EPA must move quickly to fix this mistake by treating zero emission nuclear power the same way it treats every other zero-carbon energy source. Nuclear power is the largest source of emissions-free generation in the United States. In 2013, the nation’s 99 operating nuclear plants provided more than 63% of the country’s emissions-free electricity. As it is currently written, the EPA’s rule will end up discouraging the construction and use of new nuclear energy. That’s because the rule treats new nuclear power plants that are currently under construction at Watts Bar, Vogtle, and Summer as though they were already in existence. This might make sense on paper—it’s not as though these plants are at risk of cancellation. But in the real world, it sends a signal to utilities that they should defer construction until after the EPA’s rule takes effect in 2020. By waiting, the utilities would ensure that they receive full credit from the EPA for the zero-carbon electricity the reactors generate when they are turned on. This is inconsistent with both the rule’s goal of reducing carbon emissions and also with the fact that other zero-carbon technologies covered by the rule are not similarly discounted. Unfortunately, the EPA’s proposed rule does not treat existing nuclear plants already in operation much better than it treats plants that are under construction. For reasons that are not entirely clear, EPA “counts” 5.8 percent of each state’s nuclear capacity as “at risk” of closure. This is a fairly technical area, but the bottom line is that, as the rule is currently written, any state can shut down a nuclear power plant (like Vermont did recently, closing the 600-megawatt Vermont Yankee plant) and replace the vast majority of it with new gas or coal and see no greenhouse gas regulatory penalties. This is because the replacement megawatts—minus 5.8% of it—is held to a different standard, the one that applies to new generation. Translation? As long as a state replaces 5.8 percent of the megawattage from a shuttered nuclear plant with a zero or low-emission source, the rest of the new generation can be carbon-intensive fossil energy without penalty. And so, where nuclear closures are concerned, it’s perfectly possible and indeed predictable that emissions will go up, not down, under this rule. This makes absolutely no sense for a regulation that’s sole purpose is to reduce greenhouse gas emissions. States should have to meet the goals of the regulation—emissions reductions—by actually reducing emissions, not just meeting formulaic goals. The EPA should fix its proposal and treat all emissions-free generation the same by including 100 percent of the nuclear capacity generation in the formula it uses to determine the baseline emissions reduction each state needs to meet.

Ex-Radical Muslim: Top American Colleges CREATING Terrorists Islam promotes violence against all non-Muslims for two possible ends: conversion or death. A former radical Islamic extremist opens up about the types of Jihad that “good Muslims” perpetrate in America every single day. Stealth Jihad Former devout Muslim jihadist Isik Abla revealed last week that Jihad in Islam exists in many different forms. Alba is now an international Christian evangelist. Her warning focuses on America’s top universities – where jihadists send their children to infiltrate. “ There’s educational Jihad, there’s population Jihad, there’s media Jihad, economical Jihad,” Abla told The Christian Post, noting that there are a total of eight types of Jihad. “We are seeing these … types of Jihad integrated in the Western world today.” take our poll - story continues below Will the media learn anything from their biased reporting of the Jussie Smollett story? Will the media learn anything from their biased reporting of the Jussie Smollett story? Will the media learn anything from their biased reporting of the Jussie Smollett story? * Yes, they've gotten so much wrong recently that they're bound to be on their best behavior. No, they suffer from a bad case of Trump Derangement Syndrome. Jussie who? Email * Email This field is for validation purposes and should be left unchanged. Completing this poll grants you access to The Black Sphere updates free of charge. You may opt out at anytime. You also agree to this site's Privacy Policy and Terms of Use. Trending: SCOTUS Justice Send Warning to FAKE NEWS Journalists Part of the ideology of Islam is the false narrative that it is peaceful towards all mankind. According to Abla, Islam deceives its own: “When I was a fanatical Muslim I believed in a physical Jihad,” she said. “First and foremost you’ve got to believe if you are a true Muslim and if you are studying the Quran you need to know that physical Jihad is necessary because there’s nothing but killing as told in the Quran.” They don’t just kill to convert, however. Islam has a stealth component. During her first marriage, Alba discovered she was part of stealth Jihad. “Educational Jihad pays the tuition of the students to send them to high prestigious colleges and universities in the Western world. They pay their Harvard education, they pay Princeton, and they pay Yale. So we were shoveling money to this kind of educational Jihad so those people could be in high places in power to dictate what needs to happen in the Western world [and] to Islamize the Western world. This is an ideology type of Islam and I was part of that.” Islam radicalizes every Muslim from a young age to desire terroristic martyrdom for their faith. That is the Muslim definition of a hero. Now an ordained Christian minister, Alba heralds an eye-opening warning for those with ears to hear in western civilization. Do not believe those who say that Islam is a religion of “peace.” It is not. In fact, Alba said that mindset evidences a “deaf and dumb spirit.” “[T]he peaceful presentation of Islam … is an incredible deception. I don’t understand how the Western world doesn’t get it. I want to say [it’s] naïve, but it is idiotic to not understand how Islam has nothing to do with peace. Islam can only bring peace with sword. They will behead you if you [don’t] give up your faith. If you give up your faith then they allow you to live under their rule and dictatorship. There’s no peace in Islam. Let’s get this straight.” Alba also warned that terrorists’ goal is to blend in for maximum impact. ISIS recruits Westerners using social media. “[Jihadists] can look very modern. They can look very Western, which I was. But if you told me ‘you’re going to kill in the name of Allah,’ I would have been in the front line.” Another facet of stealth Jihad presents Islam as just like everyone else. But be warned to its reality. The false god Muslims serve is not the one True Living God of Jews and Christians. Alba exhorts the West that it is the spirit of “antichrist” and secular “humanism” to preach that everyone worships the same God. So, don’t listen to the Pope or Oprah or Rick Warren when they try to convince you that the three major world religions are one big happy family of faith. Islam only wants converts or dead enemies. They eschew tolerance of other religions. And peace with Islam will only happen in the absence of all its “enemies.” No matter what form jihadists take, the only two choices open to non-Muslims are these: convert or die.

How do I contact a board administrator? Login and Registration Issues Why do I need to register? You may not have to, it is up to the administrator of the board as to whether you need to register in order to post messages. However; registration will give you access to additional features not available to guest users such as definable avatar images, private messaging, emailing of fellow users, usergroup subscription, etc. It only takes a few moments to register so it is recommended you do so. Top What is COPPA? COPPA, or the Children’s Online Privacy Protection Act of 1998, is a law in the United States requiring websites which can potentially collect information from minors under the age of 13 to have written parental consent or some other method of legal guardian acknowledgment, allowing the collection of personally identifiable information from a minor under the age of 13. If you are unsure if this applies to you as someone trying to register or to the website you are trying to register on, contact legal counsel for assistance. Please note that phpBB Limited and the owners of this board cannot provide legal advice and is not a point of contact for legal concerns of any kind, except as outlined in question “Who do I contact about abusive and/or legal matters related to this board?”. Top Why can’t I register? It is possible a board administrator has disabled registration to prevent new visitors from signing up. A board administrator could have also banned your IP address or disallowed the username you are attempting to register. Contact a board administrator for assistance. Top I registered but cannot login! First, check your username and password. If they are correct, then one of two things may have happened. If COPPA support is enabled and you specified being under 13 years old during registration, you will have to follow the instructions you received. Some boards will also require new registrations to be activated, either by yourself or by an administrator before you can logon; this information was present during registration. If you were sent an email, follow the instructions. If you did not receive an email, you may have provided an incorrect email address or the email may have been picked up by a spam filer. If you are sure the email address you provided is correct, try contacting an administrator. Top Why can’t I login? There are several reasons why this could occur. First, ensure your username and password are correct. If they are, contact a board administrator to make sure you haven’t been banned. It is also possible the website owner has a configuration error on their end, and they would need to fix it. Top I registered in the past but cannot login any more?! It is possible an administrator has deactivated or deleted your account for some reason. Also, many boards periodically remove users who have not posted for a long time to reduce the size of the database. If this has happened, try registering again and being more involved in discussions. Top I’ve lost my password! Don’t panic! While your password cannot be retrieved, it can easily be reset. Visit the login page and click I forgot my password. Follow the instructions and you should be able to log in again shortly. However, if you are not able to reset your password, contact a board administrator. Top Why do I get logged off automatically? If you do not check the Remember me box when you login, the board will only keep you logged in for a preset time. This prevents misuse of your account by anyone else. To stay logged in, check the Remember me box during login. This is not recommended if you access the board from a shared computer, e.g. library, internet cafe, university computer lab, etc. If you do not see this checkbox, it means a board administrator has disabled this feature. Top What does the “Delete cookies” do? “Delete cookies” deletes the cookies created by phpBB which keep you authenticated and logged into the board. Cookies also provide functions such as read tracking if they have been enabled by a board administrator. If you are having login or logout problems, deleting board cookies may help. Top User Preferences and settings How do I change my settings? If you are a registered user, all your settings are stored in the board database. To alter them, visit your User Control Panel; a link can usually be found by clicking on your username at the top of board pages. This system will allow you to change all your settings and preferences. Top How do I prevent my username appearing in the online user listings? Within your User Control Panel, under “Board preferences”, you will find the option Hide your online status. Enable this option and you will only appear to the administrators, moderators and yourself. You will be counted as a hidden user. Top The times are not correct! It is possible the time displayed is from a timezone different from the one you are in. If this is the case, visit your User Control Panel and change your timezone to match your particular area, e.g. London, Paris, New York, Sydney, etc. Please note that changing the timezone, like most settings, can only be done by registered users. If you are not registered, this is a good time to do so. Top I changed the timezone and the time is still wrong! If you are sure you have set the timezone correctly and the time is still incorrect, then the time stored on the server clock is incorrect. Please notify an administrator to correct the problem. Top My language is not in the list! Either the administrator has not installed your language or nobody has translated this board into your language. Try asking a board administrator if they can install the language pack you need. If the language pack does not exist, feel free to create a new translation. More information can be found at the phpBB® website. Top What are the images next to my username? There are two images which may appear along with a username when viewing posts. One of them may be an image associated with your rank, generally in the form of stars, blocks or dots, indicating how many posts you have made or your status on the board. Another, usually larger, image is known as an avatar and is generally unique or personal to each user. Top How do I display an avatar? Within your User Control Panel, under “Profile” you can add an avatar by using one of the four following methods: Gravatar, Gallery, Remote or Upload. It is up to the board administrator to enable avatars and to choose the way in which avatars can be made available. If you are unable to use avatars, contact a board administrator. Top What is my rank and how do I change it? Ranks, which appear below your username, indicate the number of posts you have made or identify certain users, e.g. moderators and administrators. In general, you cannot directly change the wording of any board ranks as they are set by the board administrator. Please do not abuse the board by posting unnecessarily just to increase your rank. Most boards will not tolerate this and the moderator or administrator will simply lower your post count. Top When I click the email link for a user it asks me to login? Only registered users can send email to other users via the built-in email form, and only if the administrator has enabled this feature. This is to prevent malicious use of the email system by anonymous users. Top Posting Issues How do I create a new topic or post a reply? To post a new topic in a forum, click "New Topic". To post a reply to a topic, click "Post Reply". You may need to register before you can post a message. A list of your permissions in each forum is available at the bottom of the forum and topic screens. Example: You can post new topics, You can post attachments, etc. Top How do I edit or delete a post? Unless you are a board administrator or moderator, you can only edit or delete your own posts. You can edit a post by clicking the edit button for the relevant post, sometimes for only a limited time after the post was made. If someone has already replied to the post, you will find a small piece of text output below the post when you return to the topic which lists the number of times you edited it along with the date and time. This will only appear if someone has made a reply; it will not appear if a moderator or administrator edited the post, though they may leave a note as to why they’ve edited the post at their own discretion. Please note that normal users cannot delete a post once someone has replied. Top How do I add a signature to my post? To add a signature to a post you must first create one via your User Control Panel. Once created, you can check the Attach a signature box on the posting form to add your signature. You can also add a signature by default to all your posts by checking the appropriate radio button in the User Control Panel. If you do so, you can still prevent a signature being added to individual posts by un-checking the add signature box within the posting form. Top How do I create a poll? When posting a new topic or editing the first post of a topic, click the “Poll creation” tab below the main posting form; if you cannot see this, you do not have appropriate permissions to create polls. Enter a title and at least two options in the appropriate fields, making sure each option is on a separate line in the textarea. You can also set the number of options users may select during voting under “Options per user”, a time limit in days for the poll (0 for infinite duration) and lastly the option to allow users to amend their votes. Top Why can’t I add more poll options? The limit for poll options is set by the board administrator. If you feel you need to add more options to your poll than the allowed amount, contact the board administrator. Top How do I edit or delete a poll? As with posts, polls can only be edited by the original poster, a moderator or an administrator. To edit a poll, click to edit the first post in the topic; this always has the poll associated with it. If no one has cast a vote, users can delete the poll or edit any poll option. However, if members have already placed votes, only moderators or administrators can edit or delete it. This prevents the poll’s options from being changed mid-way through a poll. Top Why can’t I access a forum? Some forums may be limited to certain users or groups. To view, read, post or perform another action you may need special permissions. Contact a moderator or board administrator to grant you access. Top Why can’t I add attachments? Attachment permissions are granted on a per forum, per group, or per user basis. The board administrator may not have allowed attachments to be added for the specific forum you are posting in, or perhaps only certain groups can post attachments. Contact the board administrator if you are unsure about why you are unable to add attachments. Top Why did I receive a warning? Each board administrator has their own set of rules for their site. If you have broken a rule, you may be issued a warning. Please note that this is the board administrator’s decision, and the phpBB Limited has nothing to do with the warnings on the given site. Contact the board administrator if you are unsure about why you were issued a warning. Top How can I report posts to a moderator? If the board administrator has allowed it, you should see a button for reporting posts next to the post you wish to report. Clicking this will walk you through the steps necessary to report the post. Top What is the “Save” button for in topic posting? This allows you to save drafts to be completed and submitted at a later date. To reload a saved draft, visit the User Control Panel. Top Why does my post need to be approved? The board administrator may have decided that posts in the forum you are posting to require review before submission. It is also possible that the administrator has placed you in a group of users whose posts require review before submission. Please contact the board administrator for further details. Top How do I bump my topic? By clicking the “Bump topic” link when you are viewing it, you can “bump” the topic to the top of the forum on the first page. However, if you do not see this, then topic bumping may be disabled or the time allowance between bumps has not yet been reached. It is also possible to bump the topic simply by replying to it, however, be sure to follow the board rules when doing so. Top Formatting and Topic Types What is BBCode? BBCode is a special implementation of HTML, offering great formatting control on particular objects in a post. The use of BBCode is granted by the administrator, but it can also be disabled on a per post basis from the posting form. BBCode itself is similar in style to HTML, but tags are enclosed in square brackets [ and ] rather than < and >. For more information on BBCode see the guide which can be accessed from the posting page. Top Can I use HTML? No. It is not possible to post HTML on this board and have it rendered as HTML. Most formatting which can be carried out using HTML can be applied using BBCode instead. Top What are Smilies? Smilies, or Emoticons, are small images which can be used to express a feeling using a short code, e.g. :) denotes happy, while :( denotes sad. The full list of emoticons can be seen in the posting form. Try not to overuse smilies, however, as they can quickly render a post unreadable and a moderator may edit them out or remove the post altogether. The board administrator may also have set a limit to the number of smilies you may use within a post. Top Can I post images? Yes, images can be shown in your posts. If the administrator has allowed attachments, you may be able to upload the image to the board. Otherwise, you must link to an image stored on a publicly accessible web server, e.g. http://www.example.com/my-picture.gif. You cannot link to pictures stored on your own PC (unless it is a publicly accessible server) nor images stored behind authentication mechanisms, e.g. hotmail or yahoo mailboxes, password protected sites, etc. To display the image use the BBCode [img] tag. Top What are global announcements? Global announcements contain important information and you should read them whenever possible. They will appear at the top of every forum and within your User Control Panel. Global announcement permissions are granted by the board administrator. Top What are announcements? Announcements often contain important information for the forum you are currently reading and you should read them whenever possible. Announcements appear at the top of every page in the forum to which they are posted. As with global announcements, announcement permissions are granted by the board administrator. Top What are sticky topics? Sticky topics within the forum appear below announcements and only on the first page. They are often quite important so you should read them whenever possible. As with announcements and global announcements, sticky topic permissions are granted by the board administrator. Top What are locked topics? Locked topics are topics where users can no longer reply and any poll it contained was automatically ended. Topics may be locked for many reasons and were set this way by either the forum moderator or board administrator. You may also be able to lock your own topics depending on the permissions you are granted by the board administrator. Top What are topic icons? Topic icons are author chosen images associated with posts to indicate their content. The ability to use topic icons depends on the permissions set by the board administrator. Top User Levels and Groups What are Administrators? Administrators are members assigned with the highest level of control over the entire board. These members can control all facets of board operation, including setting permissions, banning users, creating usergroups or moderators, etc., dependent upon the board founder and what permissions he or she has given the other administrators. They may also have full moderator capabilities in all forums, depending on the settings put forth by the board founder. Top What are Moderators? Moderators are individuals (or groups of individuals) who look after the forums from day to day. They have the authority to edit or delete posts and lock, unlock, move, delete and split topics in the forum they moderate. Generally, moderators are present to prevent users from going off-topic or posting abusive or offensive material. Top What are usergroups? Usergroups are groups of users that divide the community into manageable sections board administrators can work with. Each user can belong to several groups and each group can be assigned individual permissions. This provides an easy way for administrators to change permissions for many users at once, such as changing moderator permissions or granting users access to a private forum. Top Where are the usergroups and how do I join one? You can view all usergroups via the “Usergroups” link within your User Control Panel. If you would like to join one, proceed by clicking the appropriate button. Not all groups have open access, however. Some may require approval to join, some may be closed and some may even have hidden memberships. If the group is open, you can join it by clicking the appropriate button. If a group requires approval to join you may request to join by clicking the appropriate button. The user group leader will need to approve your request and may ask why you want to join the group. Please do not harass a group leader if they reject your request; they will have their reasons. Top How do I become a usergroup leader? A usergroup leader is usually assigned when usergroups are initially created by a board administrator. If you are interested in creating a usergroup, your first point of contact should be an administrator; try sending a private message. Top Why do some usergroups appear in a different colour? It is possible for the board administrator to assign a colour to the members of a usergroup to make it easy to identify the members of this group. Top What is a “Default usergroup”? If you are a member of more than one usergroup, your default is used to determine which group colour and group rank should be shown for you by default. The board administrator may grant you permission to change your default usergroup via your User Control Panel. Top What is “The team” link? This page provides you with a list of board staff, including board administrators and moderators and other details such as the forums they moderate. Top Private Messaging I cannot send private messages! There are three reasons for this; you are not registered and/or not logged on, the board administrator has disabled private messaging for the entire board, or the board administrator has prevented you from sending messages. Contact a board administrator for more information. Top I keep getting unwanted private messages! You can automatically delete private messages from a user by using message rules within your User Control Panel. If you are receiving abusive private messages from a particular user, report the messages to the moderators; they have the power to prevent a user from sending private messages. Top I have received a spamming or abusive email from someone on this board! We are sorry to hear that. The email form feature of this board includes safeguards to try and track users who send such posts, so email the board administrator with a full copy of the email you received. It is very important that this includes the headers that contain the details of the user that sent the email. The board administrator can then take action. Top Friends and Foes What are my Friends and Foes lists? You can use these lists to organise other members of the board. Members added to your friends list will be listed within your User Control Panel for quick access to see their online status and to send them private messages. Subject to template support, posts from these users may also be highlighted. If you add a user to your foes list, any posts they make will be hidden by default. Top How can I add / remove users to my Friends or Foes list? You can add users to your list in two ways. Within each user’s profile, there is a link to add them to either your Friend or Foe list. Alternatively, from your User Control Panel, you can directly add users by entering their member name. You may also remove users from your list using the same page. Top Searching the Forums How can I search a forum or forums? Enter a search term in the search box located on the index, forum or topic pages. Advanced search can be accessed by clicking the “Advance Search” link which is available on all pages on the forum. How to access the search may depend on the style used. Top Why does my search return no results? Your search was probably too vague and included many common terms which are not indexed by phpBB. Be more specific and use the options available within Advanced search. Top Why does my search return a blank page!? Your search returned too many results for the webserver to handle. Use “Advanced search” and be more specific in the terms used and forums that are to be searched. Top How do I search for members? Visit to the “Members” page and click the “Find a member” link. Top How can I find my own posts and topics? Your own posts can be retrieved either by clicking the “Show your posts” link within the User Control Panel or by clicking the “Search user’s posts” link via your own profile page or by clicking the “Quick links” menu at the top of the board. To search for your topics, use the Advanced search page and fill in the various options appropriately. Top Subscriptions and Bookmarks What is the difference between bookmarking and subscribing? In phpBB 3.0, bookmarking topics worked much like bookmarking in a web browser. You were not alerted when there was an update. As of phpBB 3.1, bookmarking is more like subscribing to a topic. You can be notified when a bookmarked topic is updated. Subscribing, however, will notify you when there is an update to a topic or forum on the board. Notification options for bookmarks and subscriptions can be configured in the User Control Panel, under “Board preferences”. Top How do I bookmark or subscribe to specific topics? You can bookmark or subscribe to a specific topic by clicking the appropriate link in the “Topic tools” menu, conveniently located near the top and bottom of a topic discussion. Replying to a topic with the “Notify me when a reply is posted” option checked will also subscribe you to the topic. Top How do I subscribe to specific forums? To subscribe to a specific forum, click the “Subscribe forum” link, at the bottom of page, upon entering the forum. Top How do I remove my subscriptions? To remove your subscriptions, go to your User Control Panel and follow the links to your subscriptions. Top Attachments What attachments are allowed on this board? Each board administrator can allow or disallow certain attachment types. If you are unsure what is allowed to be uploaded, contact the board administrator for assistance. Top How do I find all my attachments? To find your list of attachments that you have uploaded, go to your User Control Panel and follow the links to the attachments section.

CS373 Spring 2021: Blog 10. CS373 Spring 2021: Blog 10 | by Erika Tan | Medium Get unlimited access Open in app Home Notifications Lists Stories Write Erika Tan Follow Apr 3, 2021 · 2 min read CS373 Spring 2021: Blog 10 CS373 Spring 2021: Blog 10 What did you do this past week? I attended class, did the HackerRank breakout room activities, and learned about features in Python such as parameters being passed in by position and name. As for the project, my group and I finished Phase 2 of the project just in time on Monday, but we had a lot of hiccups with deployment and getting our CI/CD pipeline to work. What’s in your way? I’ve been swamped with work very recently from TAing and other classes. Sometimes I wish there was more time in a day or I could be faster at working, because everything seems to take longer than expected. Hopefully for Phase 3 we’ll be able to get everything done in time too. What will you do next week? My group will be implementing searching, sorting, and filtering in our website. I hope doing these things in Phase 3 will let me learn more backend concepts and best practices, which I’m looking forward to because I have a lot more frontend experience from past internships and projects. If you read it, what did you think of the Dependency Inversion Principle? Just like the other papers we’ve had to read about software design best practices, I thought it was pretty common sense but the way it laid out the concept of making details depend on abstractions instead of vice versa was quite clear. What was your experience of +, *, ** and decorators? I sometimes saw * and ** while using Python but usually forgot what they meant, so reviewing them in class was helpful. However, the first HackerRank exercise we did this week was quite confusing, so my group didn’t figure it out until the second time we went over it. What made you happy this week? Finishing Phase 2 right before the deadline was slightly stressful but also exhilarating. I felt very happy when we turned it in. What’s your pick-of-the-week or tip-of-the-week? Apparently BCycle (public bicycle membership) is only $12 per year for UT students. I recently signed up for it and you should too; it’ll be a great way to get some exercise in and take a break from work once in a while! -- -- More from Erika Tan Follow Love podcasts or audiobooks?

Recorder Staff/Domenic PoliGrrr Gear, at 334 East Main St. in Orange, has joined three other gun shops and the National Shooting Sports Foundation in a lawsuit against Massachusetts Attorney General Maura Healey in response to her crackdown on a ban on so-called "copycat" assault weapons. Recorder Staff/Domenic PoliGrrr Gear, at 334 East Main St. in Orange, has joined three other gun shops and the National Shooting Sports Foundation in a lawsuit against Massachusetts Attorney General Maura Healey in response to her crackdown on a ban on so-called "copycat" assault weapons. An outdoor sporting goods store in Orange is one of four Massachusetts gun shops suing state Attorney General Maura Healey over her decision to enforce a ban on so-called “copycat” assault-style weapons. Grrr Gear at 334 East Main St. joined Worcester’s Pullman Arms Inc., Agawam’s Guns and Gear LLC and Holyoke’s Paper City Firearms in the lawsuit. The National Shooting Sports Foundation, a nonprofit organization based in Newton, Conn., also joined. The NSSF bills itself as the trade association for the firearms industry. Chris and Al Noyes, the owners of Grrr Gear, had no comment about the lawsuit. On July 20, Healey announced a crackdown on the state’s assault weapons ban. She issued a warning to all gun sellers and manufacturers in Massachusetts that her office planned to increase the ban’s enforcement. According to the attorney general’s website, copies or duplicates of banned assault rifles — including copies of the Colt AR-15 and the Kalashnikov AK-47 — are prohibited in Massachusetts. However, an estimated 10,000 copycat assault weapons were sold in Massachusetts last year, according to the announcement. An enforcement notice issued the same day outlines what constitutes a “copy” or “duplicate” weapon under the assault weapons ban. A weapon is a copy or duplicate if “its internal functional components are substantially similar in construction and configuration to those of an enumerated weapon” or if “it has a receiver that is the same as or interchangeable with the receiver of an enumerated weapon.” According to the lawsuit, filed in U.S. District Court by attorney David R. Kerrigan of Kenney & Sams, P.C. in Boston, Healey’s action was “unconstitutionally vague both on its face and as applied.” Kerrigan and the Noyes deferred all questions to NSSF Public Affairs Director Michael Bazinet. Bazinet said the enforcement notice is a unilateral action against nearly two decades of interpretation of gun law. “These are civilian weapons. For instance the AR-15 rifle has been available to the public since the 1960s,” he said, adding that it is not a copycat weapon. “This is a phrase that the attorney general has decided to introduce.” The lawsuit states the enforcement notice applies to all semi-automatic weapons if it is broadly interpreted. “If that is a correct reading of the regulations, they violate the Second and Fourteenth Amendments to the United States Constitution to keep and bear arms,” the lawsuit reads, “because it bans the manufacture, sale, and possession of a broad universe of rifles, pistols, and shotguns that are commonly owned and used by citizens of Massachusetts for lawful purposes including self-defense in the home.” The Second Amendment refers to a well regulated militia being necessary “to the security of a free State.” The Fourteenth Amendment addresses citizenship rights and equal protection of the laws. According to the lawsuits, Grrr Gear has previously sold Smith & Wesson M&P 15-22 rifles but no longer does due to fears of prosecution. Bazinet also said his association objects to the lack of hearings or due process before the notice. “They’re misleading the American public and the citizens of Massachusetts into thinking this is going to make their state safer, because it will not,” he said. “We assume the court will come to the right decision here.” Bazinet also said criminal activity involving firearms typically consists of illegally-acquired handguns and members of his association wish to curb violence by cracking down on this. Jillian Fennimore, Healey’s press secretary, released a statement about the enforcement notice. “(It) has effectively ended the sale of copycat assault weapons in Massachusetts that have been illegal since 1998. It is working,” the statement reads. You can reach Domenic Poli at: dpoli@recorder.com or 413-772-0261, ext. 258.

The U.S. Senate should not act to fill the sudden Supreme Court vacancy opened up by the death of Justice Antonin Scalia until after President Obama departs office, Republican Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell said in a statement Saturday. “The American people should have a voice in the selection of the next Supreme Court justice. Therefore, this vacancy should not be filled until we have a new president,” McConnell said. Senate Judiciary Committee Chairman Chuck Grassley, R-Iowa, as well as current Republican presidential candidates and Sens. Marco Rubio and Ted Cruz, also came out of the gate opposing confirmation of a final Obama Supreme Court nominee. The Republican majority in the Senate gives the party leverage for a battle with Obama over a new Supreme Court nomination. Any nominee would need 60 affirmative votes on cloture to proceed to final confirmation, meaning that Obama would be under pressure to choose a more moderate versus liberal justice in order to win the at least 14 Republicans he would need to support his nominee. Previous Senate majorities have given presidents of the opposite parties a list of preferred nominees and influenced selections by indicating whom they would confirm. Slideshow: Justice Antonin Scalia – A look back But that pressure would vanish if Republicans cannot retake the White House in 2016 or hold their majority in the Senate. Many Republicans in D.C. are skeptical that the party will be able to do either, especially if Donald J. Trump or Ted Cruz win the GOP presidential nomination. These establishment Republicans have seen evidence that Trump or Cruz would create a drag on races lower down the ballot, such as the Senate races in November, and are worried Republicans could lose the Senate. Republicans currently hold the Senate majority with 54 members, but 24 of those seats are being contested this year — including seven in states where Obama won twice. If Republicans wait and Democrats win the White House and regain the Senate majority, a hypothetical President Hillary Clinton, for example, would have greater leeway to select a more liberal justice than Obama might have submitted. But the politics could also work in Republicans’ favor, as mobilization for a Supreme Court nomination by a Republican president could cause conservative voter turnout to spike in 2016, helping candidates across the board. Democrats, of course, would similarly seek to boost turnout and support based on the nomination fight (or lack thereof). There is precedent for the Senate to act in a presidential year on a confirmation. Justice Anthony Kennedy was chosen by Republican President Ronald Reagan and confirmed by a Democratic Senate on February 3, 1988 — also the last year of a lame-duck presidency. But SCOTUSBlog’s Tom Goldstein does not see a scenario in which Senate Republicans will change their minds. “Theoretically, that process could conclude before the November election. But realistically, it cannot absent essentially a consensus nominee — and probably not even then, given the stakes,” he wrote. “A Democratic president would replace a leading conservative vote on a closely divided court. The Republican Senate will not permit such a consequential nomination — which would radically shift the balance of ideological power on the court — to go forward.” Democrats, of course, do not see it that way, but without the Senate majority, there’s little they can do but highlight what they believe is political negligence and then campaign on that. Senate Minority Leader Harry Reid called on Obama to send a nominee to the Senate, and Obama said Saturday night he would, indeed, nominate someone. The top Democrat on the Senate Judiciary Committee, Patrick Leahy, released a statement mourning Scalia and calling on Republicans to work with Democrats to replace him swiftly because failing to do so would weaken democracy “for partisan reasons.” “I hope that no one will use this sad news to suggest that the president or the Senate should not perform its constitutional duty,” Leahy said. “The American people deserve to have a fully functioning Supreme Court. The Supreme Court of the United States is too important to our democracy for it to be understaffed for partisan reasons. It is only February. The president and the Senate should get to work without delay to nominate, consider and confirm the next justice to serve on the Supreme Court.”

Last week, we saw the ugly face of British capitalism. The excellent work of the business select committee, and its Labour chair, Iain Wright, has helped throw a spotlight on some of the more disgraceful practices that are taking place here in the UK. We discovered that the management of BHS were threatening to kill one another and the head of Sports Direct spuriously claim that he doesn’t even know what his own organisation is up to. Thanks to the work of investigative journalists, Sports Direct, a profitable company, was exposed treating its workforce with utter contempt. It had penalised low-paid employees for taking time off sick and founder, Mike Ashley, was forced to admit that his company was not even paying many of the staff the national minimum wage. Mr Ashley is a man who has made millions while treating his workforce with disregard. He claimed he could not stop such behaviour quickly as Sports Direct was an “oil-tanker”, but it’s more like a ghost ship when it comes to accountability. But clearly, this is what happens when trade unions are demonised by the media and suppressed by big business interests. In future, I would like to see any company that has been found to have broken the law and not paid staff the minimum wage, and is not recognising the trade union that represents their workforce, not only made to recognise that union, but made to accept, if the union wishes, worker representation on the board. Furthermore, the chancellor, George Osborne, has to make sure there is no sweetheart deal for Sports Direct (like the one we saw for Google over unpaid taxes) if it is found in breach of national minimum wage laws, . This week, we may witness Philip Green (I refuse to use his title) justify his actions at BHS. The fact he feels he can threaten to subvert parliament is an insultto the British public. If he refuses to come before parliament, Green should be stripped of his knighthood. Parliament should have the right to strip honours from individuals, in my view. This would remove the secret committee network and help restore public faith in the honours system. Green removed £1bn via a dividend payment from the Arcadia group in 2005. He squeezed out similar amounts from BHS while leaving the pension fund in deficit, before handing over the company to someone with very little record of business success. It was another act of vandalism that makes a mockery of those in business who are doing the right thing. And – even worse – employees of BHS will be paying for this with their pensions. The vast majority of British firms pay their taxes and manage their staff with respect. However, there is a growing elite who think they are above the law and above British decency. The new elite do not want to create wealth – they simply want to absorb it. The continued rise of this rent-seeking class is reminiscent of the robber barons of the 19th century. This new squalid elite assume that by their own genius they have amassed large sums of money, and that they have a right to do what they like, when they like, and that no one will stop them. Maybe this is true under a Tory government, but under a Labour government with Jeremy Corbyn as prime minister this will no longer be the case. It also underlines why we must remain in the European Union and reject Tory Brexit. If we don’t fight to keep and expand the working rights we have at an EU level, then a Tory Brexit government will only negotiate them away in trade deals that will resemble TTIP (the Transatlantic Trade and Investment Partnership) on steroids. We have a chance now to build Another Europe in which we work with socialists across the EU to end austerity and take on those who attack workers’ rights and avoid taxes. This is not anti-business. It’s anti-freeloader. If we allow these practices to continue they will undermine the foundations on which all genuine wealth creation is built. It will create an environment that benefits rent-seekers over wealth creators. It is time we brought an end to the new age of the robber barons. The health of our economy demands it.

On August 17th, T-Mobile will be launching a brand new Pay-as-You-Go plan, making it simple and more affordable and – in the process – the lowest offer amongst the major nationwide carries . Under the new plan, texts and calls cost a simple flat rate amount. Each text will cost $0.10, as will each minute during any phone call you place. There’s a monthly minimum of $3, which will give customers 30 minutes of talk, or 30 texts, or a combination of the two up to the value of three bucks. Of course, you can spend more than $3 per month if you wish, and there’s no credit check, no deposit and no contract. T-Mobile is also introducing a new set of on-the-go daily and weekly 4G LTE data passes. It’s $5 for a 1-day, 500MB pass or $10 for a 7-day, 1GB pass. So now, Pay-as-you-go customers will get access to LTE! With these new plans, it should mean T-Mobile customers don’t have to guess how much a call or text is going to cost, or try figuring it out based on how much they’ve preloaded. Under the newer, simpler plans, it won’t matter if you’ve preloaded $3 or $3 billion, it’s still 10 cents per text and 10 cents per minute. Of course, if you’re spending $3B in prepaid top-ups each month, you should probably consider one of T-Mobile’s Simple Choice plans. You’d save a fortune. This all comes a few days after T-Mobile became the most popular prepaid carrier, and I can’t help but feel it’ll become even more popular after these deals go live. Via: T-Mobile

This story discusses all 13 episodes of Daredevil in a fair amount of detail; the spoiler-averse are advised to turn away now. The first season of Daredevil went up on Netflix this past Friday, just after midnight, which is also the time of day when 80 percent of the first season of Daredevil appears to have been filmed. This is a dark show in the most literal sense. The action unfolds in small patches of light amid a blackness so profound you could use it to calibrate your TV’s contrast settings. Plenty of interesting objects loom out of the dark, most dramatically the head of Vincent D’Onofrio, which is now an enormous Colonel Kurtzian moon. D’Onofrio plays crime lord Wilson Fisk, well known to readers of Marvel’s comics as The Kingpin, although no one on this show ever calls him that. (No one calls Fisk’s newfound nemesis “Daredevil” to his face, either — for most of these 13 hour-long episodes, the crime-fighting alter ego of blind lawyer Matt Murdock, played by Charlie Cox, is referred to as “the man in the mask” or “the man in black,” because he takes to the streets in Under Armour and a do-rag.) Even calling Wilson Fisk “Wilson Fisk” is frowned upon; when one of Fisk’s thugs comes close to referring to him in conversation, Fisk’s majordomo snaps, “We don’t say his name!” Netflix Fisk is not the protagonist of Daredevil, but whenever D’Onofrio shows up onscreen — basically playing Donald Trump as Lex Luthor while somehow Orson Welles–ing even harder than he did while playing the actual Welles in Ed Wood — it feels like maybe he should have been. Not since Jeff “In a CAVE! With a BOX of SCRAPS!” Bridges in the first Iron Man has an actor made as lavish a banquet of a Marvel-villain part. And that wasn’t even a good part; this one is. D’Onofrio’s Fisk is a fully realized human — a man of wealth and taste who has cultivated elegant manners to hold his rage and sorrow in check. The first time we see him, he’s regarding a lunar-surfacey white abstract painting in a gallery and grunting, “It makes me feel alone.” By the time we find out via flashback what made Fisk who he is, D’Onofrio has already shown us everything we need to know — it’s there in the guilty-little-boy look that crosses his face when he tries to persuade a date into sticking around for dessert so he can order zuppa inglese, in the painstaking way he sprinkles his breakfast omelette with freshly chopped scallions chives during the lovely, wordless Lonely Single Supervillain montage that opens Episode 8. You know right away that fixing this same tiny, elegant omelette every day is a kind of meditation, a violent man’s way of reassuring himself that he’s more than a beast. D’Onofrio’s performance is the one truly great thing about a generally pretty-good show that — at least so far, at least on my various social media timelines — has been greeted as some kind of mind-blowing revelation. This isn’t really a surprise. No franchise’s fan base grades on a more generous curve than Marvel-movie aficionados, or awards as many A’s for effort and intention. Captain America: The Winter Soldier books Robert Redford as the heavy and makes a few halfhearted allusions to our own imperiled civil liberties, and everyone calls it a “’70s political thriller” with a straight face, forgetting that actual ’70s political thrillers seldom excused government malfeasance by blaming it on defrosted Nazi agents. So allow me to manage your expectations a little. Daredevil is solid. It’s promising. It’s never embarrassing — it will easily erase any painful memories you may have of Mark Steven Johnson’s 2003 Daredevil movie, in which a sweaty, grimacing Ben Affleck hopped around in crinkly red leather like a Gimp packaged by Russell Stover. This show sticks the landing the way the first Iron Man and Avengers films did; there’s nothing transcendent about it, but it easily justifies its existence and its seemingly guaranteed second season, and capably primes the pump for the three other shows about street-level Marvel superheroes that Netflix has in the pipeline. What it feels like, more than anything, is a well-executed weekly cable drama, the kind you might look forward to watching every seven days or so. Netflix’s direct-to-binge distribution model seems to make people feel obligated to wolf down whole seasons in one gulp, and in the case of page-turnerish pulp like Bloodline, that’s the right instinct. But the fact that you can watch all 13 episodes immediately doesn’t always mean you should, just as the fact that Ritz crackers come 30 to a sleeve is not a serving suggestion. I consumed Daredevil in a day and a half, which is a good way to ensure that you really notice when a show’s beats (flashback, sleuth-y B-plot, Daredevil either lays a beating on several dudes or takes one) become repetitive. I have the same issue whenever I let a pure-plot show like Justified pile up on my DVR — when you have three or four weeks’ worth of those to burn through at a time, the endless showdowns and standoffs and establishing shots where Harlan County appears to be just a hoot-’n’-a-holler down the moonshine trail from Sherman Oaks begin to blur together. So unless you’re really paranoid about spoilers (spoiler: The blind guy becomes Daredevil at the end), I’d suggest letting the saga of the Man Without Fear unfold the old-fashioned way, an hour at a time. Take a day off in between. Or at least go walk around the block. And don’t get me wrong: I’m almost never happy with this sort of thing, and many things about Daredevil made me happy, from the use of invaluably real New York locations (clandestine meetings on the wind-whipped Brooklyn waterfront; drinks at the Turkey’s Nest on Bedford Avenue) to the subplot that posits redevelopment and gentrification as the work of supervillains. Unlike the flavorless Easter-egg scramble that is ABC’s Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. — a show that’s bound by the rules of the Marvel-movie sandbox but forbidden to play with any of the toys, and has therefore failed to captivate anyone whose pulse doesn’t quicken at the mention of Angar the Screamer’s government name — it carries no water for the larger franchise to which it’s connected. There’s a reference in series creator Drew Goddard’s pilot script to “death and destruction raining from the sky” above New York City and its effect on property values in Hell’s Kitchen; later, if you don’t blink, you’ll spot a “BATTLE OF NEW YORK” front page hanging in the office of crime reporter Ben Urich (a wonderfully careworn Vondie Curtis-Hall). But that’s it. No one gets a job offer from Samuel L. Jackson or stumbles upon a Cosmic Cube; at no point does Tony Stark drop by for shawarma. We’re meant to understand that this is the same New York where men with unimaginable power kick other men through buildings on the regular, but we’re also allowed, and in some sense encouraged, to forget that as soon as it’s established. In that sense, the show is a faithful adaptation of the Daredevil comics, the best of which are crime stories that only brush against the larger superhero universe in which they ostensibly took place. The show never feels like it’s servicing fans of any particular newsprint incarnation of its main character, either. It certainly owes more to the gritty urban-vigilante version of Daredevil reinvented by writer-artist Frank Miller in the late ’70s than it does to the horn-headed acrobatic adventurer Bill Everett and Stan Lee created in 1964. But Goddard & Co. aren’t building a retro shrine to Miller and the Death Wish New York that inspired those comics, the way director Joe Carnahan seemed intent on doing with the ’70s-steeped Daredevil movie he never got to make. Instead, Daredevil lifts what it needs from the character’s whole history and carries it lightly. There’s a tailor named Melvin Potter, a hood named Turk, a mobster named Silke, and a Wall Street crook named Owlsley (Bob Gunton, eternal answer to the call of “Get me a more ethically compromised William Devane!”) If the show is working off a model at all, it’s that of NBC’s Hannibal, another painstakingly underlit and often shockingly violent reinvigoration of well-thumbed plots. Cox’s Matt Murdock and Hugh Dancy’s Will Graham share a taste for button-down collars and knit ties, a soft-spoken beta-male intensity, and a penchant for personal expiation through bloody-knuckled savagery. Daredevil has yet to retcon a slashy bromance between Murdock and his nemesis Fisk into its mythology the way Hannibal has with Graham and Mads Mikkelsen’s Dr. Lecter, but it plays up their similarities by establishing both Murdock and Wilson as childhood-trauma survivors who’ve grown into adults with savior complexes. I was out on the flashbacks by the time we got to Domenick Lombardozzi as Wilson Fisk’s abusive dad, a B-plot that felt like Lost (where Goddard was a writer/producer) at its most time-killing. I did like Skylar Gaertner as the young Matt, and the understated scene in Episode 2 when Gaertner sits at the kitchen table, waiting for his palooka dad to come home from throwing a fight and listening to the turmoil of the city — thumping music, neighbors in mid-domestic dispute. In the comics, Murdock’s hypersensitive hearing, touch, and smell are superpowers, acquired in the same accident that robbed him of his sight; the kitchen-table scene implies that those abilities might be just an extension of the natural wariness of a latchkey kid navigating life in a rough neighborhood. The awareness you have to develop to survive in a city like New York — even today’s New York — is a lot like Daredevil’s; the vengeful tone of Miller’s Daredevil comics make more sense once you know that their creator was mugged dozens of times after moving to New York from rural Vermont. In Daredevil, it’s Murdock’s assistant Karen Page (Deborah Ann Woll, ex–True Blood) who comes to embody that transformation after being framed for murder and then traumatically assaulted. “I don’t see the city anymore — all I see are its dark corners,” she says. “All I see are threats.” Marvel Unless the show departs radically from the overall arc of the comics, she is in for much worse. (Frank Miller made her into a drug-addicted porn performer; later, special guest writer Kevin Smith tricked her into believing she was HIV-positive.) Woll could use some real pitches to hit; she and Elden Henson (as Murdock’s confidant and law-school buddy Foggy Nelson) get more screen time in Season 1 than anyone except Cox, and they’re both appealing actors with interesting faces, but the characters (and their legal-drama B-plots) remain frustratingly underwritten. We’re supposed to buy Foggy and Karen as friends and therefore Matt and Foggy as romantic rivals down the line; the three of them spend a lot of time laughing together, but no one ever says anything funny. Cox has far more chemistry with Rosario Dawson’s Claire, a nurse who stitches Murdock’s wounds on the floor of her apartment, asks important audience-surrogate questions about his powers and his masochistic lifestyle, and at one point conceals her identity by improvising a superhero costume out of a white hoodie and a homemade Ghostface mask. Claire is a composite of a couple of obscure Marvel characters — former Luke Cage love interest Claire Temple and Linda Carter, one of the protagonists of the ’70s romance comic Night Nurse. Carter was reintroduced years later during Brian Michael Bendis’s great Daredevil run, as the proprietor of an underground clinic for banged-up superheroes. There is not currently a “Rosario Dawson IS … Night Nurse!!!” show on Marvel’s slate, and that is wrong. What’s left — and what’s best, with the possible exception of the moment when D’Onofrio’s Kingpin snarls the words “videos of cats,” which is just delightful — is the violence. Most superheroes transcend physical reality; Daredevil, who uses a kind of echolocation to navigate the world, depends on it. But the fact that he can’t fly or turn intangible or pluck bullets out of the air means he endures a lot of physical punishment. The punches and kicks on this show look like they really hurt, to say nothing of the bone-snaps and the eye-gouges and the chain-whippings and the decapitations-by-stomping. Matt Murdock’s near-Christlike ability to take a beating isn’t one of his superpowers, but it borders on the superhuman. The hard-R-ness of Daredevil might be the best thing about it being a Netflix show instead of a broadcast series or a movie, but it’s not just badassery for badassery’s sake — it reacquaints the comic-book genre with pain and bodily consequence, two things that have all but vanished from Marvel’s version of the form. The trailers for Age of Ultron indicate that at some point the Hulk will fight someone in a Hulk-size Iron Man suit; sooner or later, every superhero movie devolves into Rock ’Em Sock ’Em Robots between two painstakingly rendered hunks of CGI. Even at its most grindhouse-nutty, Daredevil keeps humans in the equation. The most groundbreaking thing about the show from a genre perspective is the good episode and a half that depicts Cox laid up on a couch like a double-train-wreck survivor after his first encounter with the Yakuza. Sure, he’s back out there taking more punishment before too long, and (increased spoiler alert) the season finale sends us off on a super-familiar note: martial music surging on the soundtrack, dude in body armor on a rooftop shot from extreme low angle, silhouetted against the skyline, tuning in to the city like an enormous radio, picking up the sound of a woman in trouble and springing into action. But in the 13 hours before that moment, we’re presented with abundant evidence that Murdock’s decision to become Daredevil is a terrible idea — which is a pretty great idea for how to approach a superhero show.
