Hillary did not listen
Hillary did not listen, and her advisers had no clue.
My suggestions to Hillary were precise; her advisers did not understand the unfathomable loyalty Trump had earned from the disaffected Americans, and how to reach out to them and embrace. I wrote the following two articles, the first one was written on 08/03/2016 11:18 pm ET and the second on was written two days before the election day emphasizing what Hillary needed to do.
Our founding fathers have laid a strong foundation of the checks and balances to ensure America remains a great nation, and thank God for the solid, stable government it has provided for the last 240 years and it will continue to be one. Individuals come and go, but the systems will sustain. I trust our system, and no matter who the president is, America will remain America.
We have more work on our hands to build a cohesive America, and I am committed to assertively seek to build such a nation where no American has to live in apprehension or fear of the other. Join me in rebuilding America at www. Centerforpluralism.com
Excerpts from both the articles are appended below with the links to the articles
Understanding Trump, the Pied Piper – on August 3, 2016
Why do people fall for Trump? If you look at the history of any minority, be it Black, Irish, Italians, Jews or Catholics in the recent past, and Muslims, Hindus, LGBT, Hispanics and other minorities now, you see a common quest for recognition.
The LGBT, Muslims, Hindus, Sikhs and members of other minorities love it when a Congressman, Senator or an actor speaks up kindly about them. They love the leader and become his or her defenders and promoters. Most leaders are genuine with a few exceptions. John McCain was authentic when he corrected the woman, “No, Madam. Obama is good family man….” And so was General Powell, who said, “So what if he is a Muslim?” These are unforgettable moments that Muslims Cherish, likewise there are moments like this for every community.
Hillary needs to pay attention to this.
Those Americans, who have seen good times in the sixties through the 90’s with hiccups in the Mid-eighties, faced hard times after the economic collapse in 2006 brought in by Bush-Cheney’s reckless regime.
The Job losses, business closures, massive budget deficits, unprecedented home foreclosures, divorces and deeply disturbed family lives made it difficult for Middle America. No one talked about them; they were simply not a part of the conversation.
I hope Hillary Clinton hears me out; I am not a Democrat but a Patriotic American who wants the good for my country.
It is time for Hillary to emphatically include the disenfranchised ones, as an American Muslim, who is deeply committed to build a cohesive America that is good for all Americans; I offer the following pluralistic solution.
“Hillary, please care for my fellow Americans who are hurt, they are White Americans who are ignored. They are honest hard working people who have seen good times, and now when the immigrants are prospering it is painful for them to see their quality of life decline. You have to pay attention and fix this fix. I know you are for all Americans, but it is time to reach out and embrace them, have a specific economic plan for them. If you don’t do it, the Pied Piper will bring a disaster to them and that will hurt every one of us.
My prosperity hinges on the prosperity of others around me, and my safety depend on how safe people are around me. It behooves me, you, and all of us to ensure that we ride the train together, and make sure no one is left behind.

Hillary’s last ditch effort - the final speech
“My priority is to reach out to my fellow Americans who had it good until the disaster from wars brought misery to them; the white Americans. We are going to find ways and means for them to recover from the difficult times they have endured while others Americans have prospered. “
The author of the following speech believes that Hillary Clinton needs to deliver this message in one fashion or the other on Monday, November 7, 2016.

Uvalde shooting victims seek $27B, class action in lawsuit
The lawsuit, which was filed in federal court in Austin on Tuesday, says officials failed to follow active shooter protocol when they waited more than an hour to confront the attacker inside a fourth-grade classroom.
Victims of the Uvalde school shooting that left 21 people dead have filed a lawsuit against local and state police, the city and other school and law enforcement officials seeking $27 billion due to delays in confronting the attacker, court documents show.
It seeks class action status and damages for survivors of the May 24 shooting who have sustained “emotional or psychological damages as a result of the defendants’ conduct and omissions on that date.”

Among those who filed the lawsuit are school staff and representatives of minors who were present at Robb Elementary when a gunman stormed the campus, killing 19 children and two teachers in the deadliest school shooting in the U.S. in nearly a decade.
Instead of following previous training to stop an active shooter “the conduct of the three hundred and seventy-six (376) law enforcement officials who were on hand for the exhaustively torturous seventy- seven minutes of law enforcement indecision, dysfunction, and harm, fell exceedingly short of their duty bound standards,” the lawsuit claims.

City of Uvalde officials said they had not been served the paperwork as of Friday and did not comment on pending litigation.
The Texas Department of Public Safety and the Uvalde Consolidated School District did not respond to requests for comment.
A group of the survivors also sued Daniel Defense, the company that made the gun used by the shooter, and the store where he bought the gun. That separate lawsuit seeks $6 billion in damages.
Daniel Defense, based in Black Creek, Georgia, did not respond to a request for comment. In a congressional hearing over the summer, CEO Marty Daniels called the Uvalde shooting and others like it “deeply disturbing” but separated the weapons themselves from the violence, saying America’s mass shootings are local problems to be solved locally.

Earlier this week, the mother of a child killed in the shooting filed another federal lawsuit against many of the same people and entities.
Two officers have been fired because of their actions at the scene and others have resigned or been placed on leave. In October, Col. Steve McCraw, the head of the Texas Department of Public Safety, acknowledged mistakes by officers when confronted for the first time by families of the Uvalde victims over false and shifting accounts from law enforcement and lack of transparency in the available information. But McCraw defended his agency, saying they “did not fail” Uvalde. | 2023-14/0037/en_head.json.gz/11035 | {"url": "https://thegrio.com/2022/12/03/uvalde-mass-shooting-class-action-lawsuit/", "partition": "head_middle", "language": "en", "source_domain": "thegrio.com", "date_download": "2023-03-20T09:16:58Z", "digest": "sha1:Y5Y6YJDUK3USIBLWZQJCYGB5BFRNLW4Z"} | {"ccnet_length": [[0, 3056, 3056.0]], "ccnet_original_length": [[0, 3056, 6417.0]], "ccnet_nlines": [[0, 3056, 15.0]], "ccnet_original_nlines": [[0, 3056, 150.0]], "ccnet_language_score": [[0, 3056, 0.97]], "ccnet_perplexity": [[0, 3056, 316.6]], "ccnet_bucket": [[0, 3056, 0.0]], "rps_doc_curly_bracket": [[0, 3056, 0.0]], "rps_doc_ldnoobw_words": [[0, 3056, 0.0]], "rps_doc_lorem_ipsum": [[0, 3056, 0.0]], "rps_doc_stop_word_fraction": [[0, 3056, 0.36048527]], "rps_doc_ut1_blacklist": [[0, 3056, null]], "rps_doc_frac_chars_dupe_10grams": [[0, 3056, 0.0]], "rps_doc_frac_chars_dupe_5grams": [[0, 3056, 0.04088176]], "rps_doc_frac_chars_dupe_6grams": [[0, 3056, 0.0256513]], "rps_doc_frac_chars_dupe_7grams": [[0, 3056, 0.0]], "rps_doc_frac_chars_dupe_8grams": [[0, 3056, 0.0]], "rps_doc_frac_chars_dupe_9grams": [[0, 3056, 0.0]], "rps_doc_frac_chars_top_2gram": [[0, 3056, 0.01603206]], "rps_doc_frac_chars_top_3gram": [[0, 3056, 0.00881764]], "rps_doc_frac_chars_top_4gram": [[0, 3056, 0.01362725]], "rps_doc_frac_all_caps_words": [[0, 3056, 0.01213172]], "rps_doc_frac_lines_end_with_ellipsis": [[0, 3056, 0.0]], "rps_doc_frac_no_alph_words": [[0, 3056, 0.14731369]], "rps_doc_frac_unique_words": [[0, 3056, 0.53225806]], "rps_doc_mean_word_length": [[0, 3056, 5.03024194]], "rps_doc_symbol_to_word_ratio": [[0, 3056, 0.0]], "rps_doc_unigram_entropy": [[0, 3056, 5.09818331]], "rps_doc_word_count": [[0, 3056, 496.0]], "rps_lines_ending_with_terminal_punctution_mark": [[0, 59, 0.0], [59, 276, 1.0], [276, 533, 1.0], [533, 734, 1.0], [734, 865, 0.0], [865, 1118, 1.0], [1118, 1465, 1.0], [1465, 1521, 0.0], [1521, 1646, 1.0], [1646, 1769, 1.0], [1769, 1961, 1.0], [1961, 2307, 1.0], [2307, 2439, 0.0], [2439, 2579, 1.0], [2579, 3056, 1.0]], "rps_lines_javascript_counts": [[0, 59, 0.0], [59, 276, 0.0], [276, 533, 0.0], [533, 734, 0.0], [734, 865, 0.0], [865, 1118, 0.0], [1118, 1465, 0.0], [1465, 1521, 0.0], [1521, 1646, 0.0], [1646, 1769, 0.0], [1769, 1961, 0.0], [1961, 2307, 0.0], [2307, 2439, 0.0], [2439, 2579, 0.0], [2579, 3056, 0.0]], "rps_lines_num_words": [[0, 59, 9.0], [59, 276, 35.0], [276, 533, 42.0], [533, 734, 33.0], [734, 865, 22.0], [865, 1118, 43.0], [1118, 1465, 51.0], [1465, 1521, 10.0], [1521, 1646, 22.0], [1646, 1769, 19.0], [1769, 1961, 35.0], [1961, 2307, 54.0], [2307, 2439, 19.0], [2439, 2579, 24.0], [2579, 3056, 78.0]], "rps_lines_numerical_chars_fraction": [[0, 59, 0.03571429], [59, 276, 0.0], [276, 533, 0.01587302], [533, 734, 0.01005025], [734, 865, 0.04098361], [865, 1118, 0.00806452], [1118, 1465, 0.00890208], [1465, 1521, 0.03636364], [1521, 1646, 0.0], [1646, 1769, 0.0], [1769, 1961, 0.00537634], [1961, 2307, 0.0], [2307, 2439, 0.04958678], [2439, 2579, 0.0], [2579, 3056, 0.0]], "rps_lines_start_with_bulletpoint": [[0, 59, 0.0], [59, 276, 0.0], [276, 533, 0.0], [533, 734, 0.0], [734, 865, 0.0], [865, 1118, 0.0], [1118, 1465, 0.0], [1465, 1521, 0.0], [1521, 1646, 0.0], [1646, 1769, 0.0], [1769, 1961, 0.0], [1961, 2307, 0.0], [2307, 2439, 0.0], [2439, 2579, 0.0], [2579, 3056, 0.0]], "rps_lines_uppercase_letter_fraction": [[0, 59, 0.03389831], [59, 276, 0.01382488], [276, 533, 0.0077821], [533, 734, 0.00995025], [734, 865, 0.10687023], [865, 1118, 0.01976285], [1118, 1465, 0.00288184], [1465, 1521, 0.07142857], [1521, 1646, 0.024], [1646, 1769, 0.07317073], [1769, 1961, 0.02083333], [1961, 2307, 0.03757225], [2307, 2439, 0.10606061], [2439, 2579, 0.00714286], [2579, 3056, 0.03354298]], "rps_doc_ml_palm_score": [[0, 3056, 0.9249981]], "rps_doc_ml_wikipedia_score": [[0, 3056, null]], "rps_doc_ml_wikiref_score": [[0, 3056, 0.62036347]], "rps_doc_books_importance": [[0, 3056, -96.87027711]], "rps_doc_openwebtext_importance": [[0, 3056, 80.45213376]], "rps_doc_wikipedia_importance": [[0, 3056, 54.58332226]], "rps_doc_num_sentences": [[0, 3056, 20.0]]} |

I recently got my Global Entry approved. Here are 11 things you need to know about how to get yours.
If there’s one thing frequent travelers dread a lot is the long, slow-moving U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) line when you enter the United States.
Throw in an 11-hour journey, a toddler, and his very hungry mother and you can just imagine the helpless husband just waiting to get everyone home.
Thankfully, there is a solution to speed up clearance — I’m talking a few minutes as opposed to hours, days?
Global Entry membership is a quick way to clear CBP without facing long lines — sometimes getting clearance before even physically re-entering the U.S. if you’re departing from pre-clearance locations like a few in Canada.
(The clearance at Toronto was so quick we were wondering why the officer let us go without a single question. In fact, he asked us to ‘please move ahead’ because we were still standing there waiting to be probed further.)
While the process of becoming a Global Entry member may seem cumbersome, it is most certainly worth it.
Here are 10 things that can help you get yours soon (ish).
All Global Entry applications must be submitted online through the CBP website with a $100 nonrefundable application fee. Depending on which credit card you own, you may be eligible for fee reimbursement.
Once you apply, it could take up to 6 months for non-U.S citizens in most cases to become conditionally approved. For U.S. citizens, it could get approved in a day.
After you’ve received conditional approval, you’ll need to schedule and complete an in-person interview. Even though the CBP approved my application in May 2022, due to an application backlog I could not get an appointment for the in-person interview application process until December 2022.
On the day of your interview, be sure to have the following ready:
a.) A printout of your letter of conditional approval
b.) Valid passport(s) or permanent resident card
c.) Evidence of residency (for example, a driver’s license with your current address, a mortgage statement, or a recent utility bill)
d.) Employment Verification letter (if applicable)
e.) I-797 for non-U.S. citizens (if applicable)
The interview will last about 10 to 15 minutes. You can expect to be questioned about your application, and about why you want to join the Global Entry program. I was also asked to list the countries I had visited recently, and whether I had traveled to each for business or leisure.
The final step is to submit your fingerprints and get your photo taken. And you’re good to go.
When you return to the U.S. after an international trip, you are eligible for enrollment on arrival. You will have to head to a separate line at immigration where a CBP agent will complete your interview.
Global Entry service is available to more than just U.S. citizens and permanent residents. Currently, citizens of Argentina, Brazil, Bahrain, Colombia, Germany, India, Mexico, the Netherlands, Panama, Singapore, South Korea, Switzerland, Taiwan, and the U.K. can apply.
You will be eligible for TSA PreCheck almost all of the time if you have Global Entry. Make sure the name matches the one on your ticket and don’t forget to add the membership number in the KTN field when you purchase your ticket.
Global Entry is valid for 5 years. But, the renewal process has been experiencing massive delays. Thankfully, the CBP has added two additional years to make up for this delay. However, you must submit your renewal application before it expires to get this grace period.
Families need to enroll their children also in the program. This means you’ll have to pay the $100 enrollment fee for each child. You’ll also have to schedule and attend an interview with your minor.
Global Entry can help you avoid long wait times when you return from an international trip. Although it costs $100 and requires an in-person interview, signing up for Global Entry might help you save a lot of time if you’re a frequent international traveler.
Additionally, since you are eligible for a TSA PreCheck, your security clearance also speeds up at TSA checkpoints.

The Imperative Compass
Living with integrity
May 26, 2017 September 5, 2017 / theimperativecompass
I don’t know where to start. I guess I should start off by explaining why I want to start a blog. My reasons are largely selfish. I am a fairly new stay-at-home mom, and I need something adult to do in between peek-a-boos and itsy bitsy spiders. Also, I have a daughter now. There are many things I want to teach her, but mostly I feel a strong need to be a positive role model in her life. I have not always been the most motivated person. Sure, my prior workmates will all tell you I have a good work ethic and try to do a quality job when something needs to be done. But I also never had a problem with playing video games all weekend. I might feel a little guilty, sure, but not guilty enough to do something different.
Now, I feel a sudden urgency to do the things I have always wanted to but never got around to. Not that I don’t want to have fun, oh no…. I want to make sure that little girl of mine knows how to enjoy life and live a life of balance. But I also want her to know that it is important to pursue one’s ideals. It is not enough to look at the world around you and be able to point at all of the things you don’t like about it; I truly believe that in order to engage in life, to experience life fully, and to be most at peace with yourself, you have to try to live life as you would want life to be.
If I am going to teach her the things I want her to learn, I am going to have to walk the walk before I talk the talk. I am starting this blog to address the dissonance I often feel between my thoughts and my actions. I like to think that I am a rational, forward-thinking individual and yet I often feel like a spectator in the world rather than a participant. I form strong opinions about things but sometimes wonder how educated my opinions really are. Also these strong opinions often do not match up with the way I live my life nor do I often take action to affect change in areas where I might be able to have an influence.
There are probably several reasons for this. First, I am busy living my life; I have been and still am a daughter, a sister, a wife, a mother, a friend, a student, a career-woman, a recovering alcoholic, a poet, a music-lover, a pet-owner, a housekeeper, a runner….. I could go on and on but you probably get the point, and you probably empathize. Many of us are trying to be a little bit of everything these days. Some are a little bit of everything and still manage to be movers and shakers in the world. Perhaps they are not as lazy as I am… who knows? The point is that it is difficult to know where to throw in time and effort when you are already being pulled in so many directions at once. I suspect (although I can’t be sure) that this is why many people feel strongly about certain things but never seem to DO anything about it. We are all hoping some kind of full-time activist will swoop in and take care of that for us, because we certainly don’t have time.
That piece about it being difficult to know where to throw in support is another part of the problem. There are SO many issues that I feel strongly about, want to learn more about, and want to do something about, that I often throw up my hands and think “where on earth would I start?” Choosing my battles has never been my strong suit, and in this context it is paralyzing. In psychology, there is a study-supported phenomenon in which having more choices is NOT a good thing. For instance, having the option to choose among five flavors of ice cream generally makes people happier than only having one. So more is better, right? Wrong… there is a point of diminishing returns at which more options make people less happy. Fifty flavors of ice cream can be completely paralyzing. How on earth is someone supposed to choose from that many? If a person does settle on one, it is likely that they will second guess themselves and feel buyer’s remorse, thinking how much better it might have been if they chose something else.
Lastly, there is a sense of impotence in the face of the problems of the world. Everyone has a critical voice in their head; mine can be absolutely ruthless sometimes. It is constantly telling me why I should not pursue anything worthwhile. What could I possibly do to make anything better? I am small and insignificant. My efforts will be futile. I have no original thoughts. People will LAUGH at me.
I have now outlined all the reasons (excuses) why I don’t act more in a manner that is in line with my beliefs and morals. I want to go beyond critical thinking and go into critical decision-making and critical acting. My goal within this blog is to inform my beliefs and outline all the ways I CAN act more in a manner that is in line with these beliefs. That is the purpose of this blog. Remember the fifty flavors of ice cream? My intention is to go down the line and consider each of the flavors, as it were. The nice thing about this is that I will probably never run out of things to write about and if I need to stay on one topic longer than the others I can do that.
There is a sort of format I wish to follow:
First, I will introduce the topic that I am struggling with and state my current thoughts/beliefs on the matter and how I came to those conclusions. I will also explain what I do or (more likely) do not do to support these thoughts/beliefs.
After that, I will research the topic to answer my own questions regarding how I really feel about it and how to act based on my beliefs. For example, how easy would it be to be proactive about supporting that belief? What are small things I could do in my day-to-day life to support that belief? After weighing the options, is this a belief that I feel I can put my energy into or is the cost to high… or is it not worth enough to me?
Most importantly, is this a belief that I want to continue to have? I am not closed to the idea that in researching a specific topic I may find that I change my mind about it…. I am certainly not an expert in all things. I think it is very sad that in our society we so often see changing one’s mind as a sign of weakness. I get that we want our leaders to be solid, to be unwavering in their beliefs. However, it is incredibly foolish to throw out new information just because it doesn’t match one’s current beliefs. I hope I can avoid making that mistake.
Finally, I will present and commit t a plan of action (or a plan not to take action) to support my beliefs.
It sounds terribly boring when I lay it out that way. My husband would probably say at this point that I am being a control freak about my blog. So be it. I need to be a control freak in the planning stages to be ok with moving forward. I can assure you, I am not such a control freak in many other areas of my life, as you will soon find out. I am fully prepared to break format or go off on a tangent if I feel it is necessary to get closer to achieving my goal of belief/action congruence.
I have to throw in a warning here, I was a psychology (and criminology) major when I recently finished my Bachelor’s Degree, and was simultaneously impressed and depressed by what I learned about the inner workings of the human mind; for this reason, you will see a lot of references to psychology peppered throughout this blog. I do not claim to be an expert on the subject matter, but I am certain some things that I internalized in that course of study will be highly relevant to the topics I plan to discuss.
Before I begin, I’d like to pre-emptively thank anyone who is considering accompanying me on my journey; you will keep me honest! And so, here we go…..

One thought on “The Beginning”
You do seem to want to be in control of the time and content of your spiritual journey. For me, this is how it’s been working:
1. I feel an itch. I’m uncomfortable. Something needs to change in my life.
2. I put it out there in the Universe/God/Spirit what I’m looking for.
3. Then I must be patient and keep my eyes open for answers. If I ask the question, the answers start appearing before me. When I try to force an outcome, that’s when I start making poor judgement calls.
Yes, sometimes I wish I could just jump to the destination, like “Beam me up, Scotty”. For example, when I was dating after my divorce, I wanted each guy I met to be Mr. Right. However, by being patient and taking the time to get to know people, I learned more about myself. I learned what I truly valued in a person and in a relationship.
Now that you’ve put your intention out there, start looking for the road signs. When you hear something that strikes a cord in your heart, that is your truth…for today. It might change or alter along your journey, but that’s okay. Go ahead and hang your head out the window and enjoy the journey! | 2023-14/0037/en_head.json.gz/11038 | {"url": "https://theimperativecompass.blog/2017/05/26/the-beginning/", "partition":

Prominent Pakistani TV Host Dr. Aamir Liaquat Passes Away
Haniya Hassan
Aamir Liaquat Hussain, a television host, Islamic scholar, and politician, has passed away at his residence in Karachi. A video message he bid farewell to Pakistan was uploaded on his website weeks ago.
In the Khudadad Colony of Karachi, Dr. Aamir Liaquat Hussain was found unconscious in his house by his servant Javaid. He was also the PTI MNA from a Karachi constituency.
After being rushed to a hospital, the 50-year-old was pronounced dead after he could not be resuscitated.
Mr. Ramzan Chippa, the head of the Chippa Welfare Trust, also confirmed that Dr. Aamir had passed away between 15 and 20 minutes before being brought to the hospital.
According to his will, the philanthropist said that the televangelist desired to be buried alongside the mausoleum of his parents at the shrine of Abdullah Shah Ghazi. Moreover, he said he would take care of the final rites of the departed soul.
According to family sources, preparations have begun for the funeral. There are also plans for the arrival of Aamir Liaquat’s son.
It has been reported that the anchor had the door of his room locked from the inside. In the morning, the servant knocked on the door several times but was unsuccessful. Dr. Aamir reported experiencing chest pains on Wednesday night.
According to the driver of the former MNA, the police heard a “scream coming from Aamir’s room earlier in the day.” In addition, Servant Javaid stated that Dr. Aamir cried most of the night and kept saying he was in danger of dying.
Jinnah Hospital has been notified of transferring Dr. Aamir’s body for post-mortem examination. According to the police, foul play was not suspected, but they are waiting for the results of the autopsy before making a definitive judgment.
Dr. Aamir Liaquat Hussain was among the top 500 most influential Muslims list.

Make Your Job Work for You
(Family Features) For some people, job dissatisfaction is the result of a crummy boss or stifling work environment. For others, the problem lies much deeper; it’s a need to reevaluate your career path and find a more suitable fit.
If you’re considering a career change but not sure which direction you’re headed, consider these words of wisdom:
Do some self-reflecting. Take time to give your current work situation a thorough analysis. Determine which elements you enjoy, what rubs you the wrong way and what you’d change if you could. Think about practical solutions to the problems you identify whether it’s changing to a different role in the same field or exploring a new industry entirely. Avoid the temptation to focus on the negative. Rather, take plenty of time to consider the positive aspects of your current job, since that insight can help inform your next step. For example, if you enjoy the limited contact you have with customers, a job with more customer-facing interaction might not be a good fit.
Ask for input. Sometimes loved ones hold the key to a happier career path because they can point out details you don’t recognize. They might recall a time when you were most relaxed and happy, or they might point out talents or skills you take for granted. Often, these natural abilities are an excellent foundation for a career because you’re well-equipped to be successful.
Consider your personal interests. Keeping your personal life and professional life separate isn’t necessarily a bad idea but finding a way to merge the two can be useful. This is especially true if you’re able to combine training or skills with something you’re passionate about. For example, if you’re an avid outdoorsman, you might find great satisfaction in applying your business management background to work for a company that specializes in camping gear.
Understand what motivates you. Landing in the right job isn’t just about having the right qualifications for a position that interests you. At the end of the day, you’ll feel most content when your job offers meaningful rewards. Motivators can be financial, or they might have more to do with the ability to learn and grow. Some people are willing to sacrifice a bigger paycheck to know they’re making a meaningful contribution in a field they care about. Knowing what outcomes resonate best can help you find a more rewarding career.
Do your research. Changing your career path is a big move, and one you shouldn’t take lightly. Before diving in, spend time looking into the field you’re considering so you have a better sense of factors like growth opportunities, job availability, qualifications, compensation and more. If you find you aren’t quite qualified for the job you think you want, explore what it will take to get there whether it’s training, education or putting in your time to gain experience and work your way into the role you desire.
A career change may be just what you need to shift your life in the direction you want. Find more career advice at eLivingtoday.com.

The Haunted Cathedral by Antony Barone Kolenc
The only problem with discovering a favourite brand-new series of books is that you have to wait for the author to write the next book before you can read it. This was our experience with the Harwood Mysteries when we read Shadow in the Dark last year. The story of Xan and his friends at Harwood Abbey drew us in and left us wanting more. Antony Barone Kolenc has now delivered more with the second book in the series, The Haunted Cathedral.
I received this book for review courtesy of the publisher; all opinions expressed are my own. This post contains affiliate links; as an Amazon associate, I earn from qualifying purchases.
The Haunted Cathedral plot summary
As the story opens, Xan is still trying to figure out his place in the abbey. His best friend Lucy is leaving to join her father on his travels through England. The robber Carlo who murdered Xan’s parents remains in prison at the abbey as Xan struggles to forgive him. And then the village reeve shows up to say that Xan is still a serf who must pay his head tax to buy his freedom.
The abbot decides to solve two problems by sending Carlo, Xan and Brother Andrew to Lincoln. Xan is on a quest to find his Uncle William, a merchant who may be able to pay his head tax or give him a home. Carlo is being sent to the courts in Lincoln, in the hopes that they will dispense better justice to Carlo than his henchmen received. And Brother Andrew has to keep an eye on everyone, including the two guards sent along to keep them safe—or to wreak vengeance on Carlo.
Xan took the whittled cross from his pouch and held it tight in his palm, trying to pray—pray for the monk’s eye; for arriving safely in Lincoln; for Lucy; for finding his uncle and his family. His silent words seemed to echo into the nothingness of tiny white stars in the dusk sky. What if Ox were right? What if all that the monks believed was untrue?
After a journey beset by dangers, Xan and his companions arrive in Lincoln. There, as he searches for his uncle and waits for Carlo’s hearing, Xan is reunited with Lucy and makes new friends. He also discovers a new mystery to solve: strange noises and happenings at the Lincoln Cathedral. His new friends say the ghost is a young girl who died last year, but Xan can’t understand why a happy, pious girl would be haunting the cathedral. Even as he tries to find the answers, he wonders if the ghost can give him a message from his parents in heaven. Maybe they can help him decide what to do about Uncle William and Carlo.
My Thoughts on The Haunted Cathedral
Once again, Antony Barone Kolenc delivers a page-turning story about life in the Middle Ages. Xan faces big questions about his future, his faith, and his friendships. I appreciated the way that Kolenc weaves faith lessons through the story. Xan dealt with a bully at the abbey in Shadow in the Dark; now, he and Brother Andrew are up against bigger bullies, and Brother Andrew demonstrates the power of turning the other cheek.
The main message in The Haunted Cathedral is forgiveness. The abbot and Brother Andrew urge Xan to forgive Carlo for murdering his parents and burning his village. Xan’s anger towards Carlo is completely understandable, and his questions and struggles may resonate with many readers (although hopefully none are being asked to forgive their parents’ murderers as Xan is!). The circumstances that throw Xan and Carlo together through The Haunted Cathedral make Xan’s struggle to forgive a major plot point without being preachy or pushy.
I also enjoyed the history trivia throughout this novel. As Xan explores Lincoln, his new friends tell him about the cathedral and its history. They speculate about the causes of the ghost and even explore an area outside the city. A significant historical event takes place during the story, which Kolenc explains further in the Author’s Historical Note at the end of the novel. Kolenc also includes a glossary for terms that younger readers may not be familiar with.
Antony Barone Kolenc retired as a Lieutenant Colonel from the U.S. Air Force Judge Advocate General’s Corps after 21 years of military service. He is a law professor who teaches courses on constitutional and military law and has been published in numerous journals and magazines. He speaks at legal, writing, and home education events and writes Catholic YA novels. The Haunted Cathedral is the second novel in the Harwood Mysteries, with the third novel coming in July 2021. He and his wife have raised five children and have three grandchildren.
The idea for these novels sprang from one of my family’s cross-country road trips during a change in military assignments. We spoke at length in the car about ideas for an exciting book that would engage today’s youth while also grappling with issues of the moral and religious life. From that conversation emerged the concept of Shadow in the Dark. ~ Antony Barone Kolenc

One Day at a Time Lives to See Another Day

After being cancelled by the popular streaming service Netflix, the show “One Day at a Time” had been saved and has started airing on the POP TV Channel, along with other shows such as Schitt’s Creek, Florida Girls, Big Brother: After Dark and more. POP TV is a branch under the ViacomCBS company, who also owns TV Channels such as Nickelodeon, the BET Network, Paramount Motion Pictures, MTV, TV Land and the CBS channels.
“One Day at a Time” stars Justina Machado, Rita Moreno, Isabella Gomez, Marcel Ruiz, Todd Grinnell, Stephen Tobolowsky and Sheridan Pierce and features the life of a Cuban-American family being raised by a single mother. As an avid fan, I was just as upset as many others were when it had been announced that “One Day at a Time” was not being renewed for a fourth season. I had not heard anything had changed until a month ago when I accidentally found the fourth season trailer on YouTube telling of the new season beginning on a new network.
Ever the loyal fan, I made a note to download the POP TV app and mark my calendar for when the episodes would air (every Tuesday morning) in order to watch them. So far, there have been four episodes, which have been exactly as funny and magical as the first three seasons of the show.
The only noticeable difference is how the show tackles more adult subject matter than beforehand, although serious subject matter is not necessarily far off from the show’s norm. Previously, issues being tackled included LGBTQ+ rights, racism, classism, mental health, addiction and what makes a family. I could not recommend this show enough to anyone willing to watch it, as well as the fans who did not know it had been saved by another network. The POP TV app is available in the app stores for free.

Doctor Claims Genetically Modified Babies Only Two Years Away
November 22, 2019 /in News, Science News/by Sandra Hart
An academic from Abertay University in Dundee, Scotland, has claimed we are only two years away from being able to create ‘ethically sound’ designer babies.
Gene editing risks are at an all time low meaning there are high levels of justification to use the technique on human embryos, claims Dr Kevin Smith.
Dr Smith also highlights the fact that genetically modified (GM) people could be morally justifiable within a few years, which in turn could assist in preventing certain diseases from being passed through generations as well as improving the quality of life once the GM baby reached an older age.
The process of gene editing can be very complex with scientists altering an organism’s DNA to help prevent diseases being spread, however using this technique on human DNA will always be a topic that will bring heated debate, with the theory that if the process gets passed into the wrong hands the reasons for conducting the practice could be changed, for instance helping families choose the colour of their baby’s eyes, hair and more.
‘The human germline is by no means perfect, with evolution having furnished us with rather minimal protection from diseases that tend to strike in our later years, including cardiovascular disease, cancer and dementia. GM techniques offer the prospect of protecting future people against these and other common disorders. This has previously been achieved to an extent in GM experiments on animals. If several common disorders could be avoided or delayed by genetically modifying humans, the average disease-free lifespan could be substantially extended.’
Yet however ethically sound the process may have been described as, there are worries that a revolution in genetic modification could begin and Dr Smith has warned there must be an ethical approach if there is any chance of winning the trust of the public.
‘Society is largely opposed to genetically modifying humans and the negative publicity generated by the ethically problematic first-ever production of GM babies in China last year was strongly criticized by most geneticists and ethicists, further hardening attitudes against the creation of so-called ”designer babies”.’
‘However, by delaying an ethically sound move towards a world where we can reduce genetic disease, we are failing those who suffer through disease and debilitating conditions. If such negative attitudes to biomedical innovation had prevailed in the 1970s, the development and use of IVF – a massively beneficial medical technology – would have been severely delayed, and indeed might never have come to fruition.’
A highly controversial topic of debate, gene-edited babies were born in China amongst fierce claims of law breaking. Twins Lulu and Nana were born in November 2018 thanks to Chinese Scientist Prof He Jiankui who was condemned by several researchers, bioethicists and medical professionals who claimed he acted illegally ‘in pursuit of fame and fortune’.
However this was not the first time scientists had edited the DNA in human embryos. In 2017, scientists in the United Kingdom were experimenting with human embryos that had been donated by IVF couples who no longer required them.
There are many claims to why genetically modified babies should be looked at with caution. Not only are there concerns about the potential side effects there are also ethical fears being raised, such as the chance for inequality becoming a bigger issue thanks to the wealthiest of people being able to produce genetically enhanced children, therefore increasing an already large gap between the poorest and richest people in the world. There are also concerns that long-term, potentially specific aspects to the human race could be eradicated completely.
Dr Smith has also stated that the latest studies have shown that the main way forward in the war against multiple disease-associated genes is to use genetic modification within an embryo. The human germline, which is cells that span across multiple generations, is ‘by no means perfect’ thanks to evolution giving precariously low levels of protection from diseases that are more prevalent in our older years.
‘GM techniques offer the prospect of protecting future people against these and other common disorders. This has previously been achieved to an extent in GM experiments on animals’
There have been many questions surrounding the ethical side of creating genetically modified babies with Dr Smith commenting they were ‘highly desirable’.
The theory that common disorders and diseases could be delayed, or even avoided altogether, resulting in the average human lifespan being ‘substantially extended’.
The doctor also questioned whether the delay in creating a world without genetic disease through genetic modification was failing those who currently suffer conditions that are not only debilitating but also life threatening.
If genetic modification on human embryos does become more common it is agreed that there will have to be safeguarding measures put in place, not just to protect the families involved, but also to protect the way that the technique is used in years to come.

Henderson’s first wire-to-wire win in Opening Day ‘reserved’
Brooke Henderson (Canada) came one step closer to winning the first wire-to-wire event ever.
Henderson won the Hilton Grand Vacations Tournament of Champions (total prize of 1.5 million), the LPGA tour season opener, held at the Lake Nona Golf & Country Club (par 72, 6617 yards) in Orlando, Florida, USA on the 22nd (Korean time). Dollar) On the third day of the tournament, he reduced 3 strokes in the 3rd round. Henderson, who recorded an interim total of 14 under par and 202 strokes, maintained the sole lead for three days in a row.
If he doesn’t give up the lead on the last day, he wins wire-to-wire. In this competition, there has been no case of winning without giving up a single leading position from 1 to 4. Henderson’s chances of winning are high as World No.
This tournament is in the nature of a king among kings, with 29 winners competing for the championship in the last two years. Not a single Korean player participated in this year’s event. Henderson has no winning experience in this competition, but is strong enough to not be pushed out of the ‘Top 10’ once in the last four years. Henderson finished 5th in 2019, tied for 4th in 2020, 9th in 2021 and 2nd last year. 메이저사이트

Ahead Of PM Narendra Modi’s Visit, Karnataka Mandya Independent MP Sumalatha Ambareesh Extends Full Support To BJP

Mandya (Karnataka):
Ahead of Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s visit to Mandya to inaugurate the 10-lane Mysuru-Bengaluru Expressway, independent MP Sumalatha Ambareesh on Friday extended her full Msupport to the Bharatiya Janata Party at the Centre.
The actor-turned-politician, who remained a neutral MP till now, also said the decision was taken in view of the stability given to India and the reputation India earned across the globe under the leadership of PM Modi.
Sumalatha, who represents Mandya constituency in the Lok Sabha, also promised that so long as she is in politics, her son Abhishek will never venture into politics, for she is against the dynastic politics.
“After consulting my well-wishers and supporters, I have arrived at a decision. On this day, I am extending my full support to Narendra Modi government at the Centre,” the wife of iconic Kannada actor late Ambareesh said in a press conference.
She said after four years as an independent MP and facing numerous challenges, especially obstacles in holding public meetings, she realised that she needed a support.
“People can draw their conclusions but I have faith in the leadership of Narendra Modi, who is admired across the globe,” Sumalatha said.
She also said it is an honour for Mandya that the Prime Minister of the country was visiting the district to inaugurate the expressway.
“The Prime Minister could have chosen to inaugurate it either in Mysuru or Bengaluru but he opted for Mandya, which shows the importance of the district,” the MP said.
The Lok Sabha member clarified that the move is aimed at the overall development of Mandya, which according to her, is suffering from a vitiated atmosphere.
The BJP welcomed Sumalatha’s move and said this will help the party strengthen its base in the old Mysuru region, which remains a Congress and the JD(S) bastion.
“Sumalatha’s decision to support the BJP after accepting the dynamic leadership of Prime Minister Narendra Modi and the development works of the BJP, will strengthen the party,” BJP state president Nalin Kumar Kateel said in a statement.
He added that Sumalatha took the decision after taking into account the BJP at the Centre and State carrying out various development works in Mandya including the 10-lane Bengaluru-Mysuru Expressway.
In an apparent attack on the JD(S), Sumalatha slammed those “who have turned Mandya into their political citadel and did nothing for the district.” “There is a need for change in Mandya. A vitiated atmosphere has been created here. Let’s carry out a ‘Swachch Bharat Mission’ here in Mandya first,” Sumalatha said.
The decision came just two days before Modi’s visit to the district. The BJP had backed the MP during the Lok Sabha election in 2019, which resulted in her victory defeating the sitting Chief Minister HD Kumaraswamy’s son Nikhil.
Sumalatha was in touch with the BJP leadership for almost a year and for the past few days, there were several rounds of talks with her.
On Thursday as well, she had a long discussion with the BJP national president J P Nadda when he was in Bengaluru as part of his ‘Vijaya Sankalpa Yatra.’ It had become clear that she would join the BJP but everyone was curious to know the terms and conditions in which she would join the BJP.
Speculations were rife that she would seek a ticket for her son Abhishek from a safe constituency in the upcoming Assembly elections.
There were also rumours that she would contest from Bengaluru. However, the MP ruled out both the possibilities.
Sumalatha also promised that as long as she is in politics, her son Abhishek will never venture into politics.
“I will not promote dynastic politics. So long as I am in politics, my son will not venture into this profession. This is the oath I swear by Goddess Chamundeshwari (the deity of Mysuru),” she added.
Taking a dig at the JD(S) and other political parties where families are promoted, she said she was not the one who will draw every member of the family into the politics “as is practiced by some.” “I did not join politics when Ambareesh was alive. So long as I am in this field, my son will not venture into politics,” the MP said.
About the possibility of her fighting elections from Bengaluru, Sumalatha said her family had always been committed to Mandya and there were no such possibilities of moving out.
“I will quit politics rather than compromising with my self-esteem. I will prefer leaving this world, instead of Mandya,” she said.
The Lok Sabha member clarified that she got into politics not for making money as is done by others but to bring a change in the district and improve lives.
However, caustic remarks passed against her and the impediments put in completing her works, made her think of seeking support, Sumalatha said.
“This move is not about Sumalatha’s future but Mandya’s future. I have to take a step in this direction,” the MP said.
She also said the decision was necessary keeping in view the future of her supporters.
Sumalatha also told the gathering about the various works carried out by her in the last four years dismissing the allegations that she was not active and was not meeting people.
Reacting to her decision on extending full support to BJP, JD(S) leader and former Chief Minister HD Kumaraswamy said there was no need to give prominence to Sumalatha.
“No one is surprised by this news. In my opinion we need not have to give prominence to it,” he told reporters in Hassan.
Calling Sumalatha, a big person, the JD(S) leader said big people join big party. “I have not grown to that big level to comment on her. I feel it is not appropriate to react to it,” he said.
Regarding the development works taken up in the district during her tenure, he said people of Mandya will decide on it.
Sumalatha, a multi-lingual film actress who was born in Guntur in Andhra Pradesh had worked in Tamil, Telugu, Kannada and Malayalam movies.
Her husband M H Ambareesh, who died in November 2018, was also an actor-turned-politician. After his death, she contested the Lok Sabha election from Mandya and defeated former Prime Minister HD Deve Gowda’s grandson and former Chief Minister HD Kumaraswamy’s son Nikhil Kumaraswamy.

The lottery is a game of chance where players select numbers and then wait for the results. It is a form of gambling that has been around for centuries. It is often seen as a low-risk way to win large amounts of money. Despite this, many people who win the lottery end up losing their fortunes quickly. This is due to the fact that they do not know how to manage their newfound wealth and are inexperienced with financial management.
Some of the most successful lotteries are those that have a wide range of prizes. For example, the Powerball has a large jackpot and also offers other prizes of smaller value. Some of the largest jackpots in history have exceeded billions of dollars.
There are several strategies that can help you increase your chances of winning the lottery. The first strategy is to buy more tickets, if possible. It is also important to develop skills as a player and play with consistency.
Another important strategy is to check the lottery website for prize breakdowns. This can help you choose the best games and give you an idea of how many prizes are still available in the current draw.
It is important to remember that lottery odds are very low and that a small number of people can win huge sums of money. This is why the government has guarded the lottery so jealously from private ownership.
If you want to improve your odds of winning the lottery, look for state-run lotteries that offer lower odds than the national ones. These state-run lotteries often have fewer balls or have a much narrower range of numbers than the national ones. This can dramatically increase your odds of winning.
One of the simplest ways to improve your odds of winning is to find a group that plays with a lottery pool. These groups have a leader and members that buy tickets together. They share the cost of buying tickets, and the leader is responsible for collecting funds from all members in a timely manner.
The leader of a lottery pool must provide the members with accounting logs, copies of tickets and member lists. The pool leader should also keep track of how much is collected and what has been paid out to winners.
There are also many brands that have partnered with the lottery to create brand-name promotions. These deals benefit the companies through advertising and product exposure. In some cases, the prize is a popular brand of merchandise such as a car or a piece of real estate.
These merchandising deals also help lotteries raise money for their operations. They also allow lotteries to promote their products through advertisements on television and radio stations, newspapers, and other media.
In the past, most lotteries were simple raffles in which a person purchased a preprinted ticket with a set of numbers and then waited for a drawing to see if he or she won a prize. These are called passive drawing games and were the most common type of lottery in 1973.

This is definitely the most difficult part of this exercise. Yesterday was all artsy and colourful, today is stark reality. I mean, it's one thing to realize where you need to focus some of your attention, but quite another thing to actually do it in a meaningful way. So here goes.
You'll remember that I was low in career, spirituality, health, and creativity. So for each of these categories, I am going to start with 2 goals (I'd rather start off small and achieve my goals, than to be disappointed by trying to do too much, or I'm lazy, not sure which).
1. Go out and snap some photos (with an eye to improving technique) at least one session per week.
2. Write a novel by June 30, 2013 (final draft).
SPIRITUALITY:
1. Start a weekly practice of gratitude, recording what has made me thankful during the past week. This might be good to incorporate into the art journal I am going to start (see the creativity category).
2. Daily meditation, starting with just 5 minutes a day.
The C.A.M. Report
1. Daily yoga, even if it's only 10 minutes.
2. More water, less tea and wine. Put some lemons or limes in the water to make it more fun. Buy a pretty glass pitcher.
CREATIVITY:
1. Start creating daily morning pages (as per Julia Cameron of The Artist's Way fame).
2. Create an art journal using Tickled Pink's tutorial as a starting point.

Okay, those are mine out there for the whole world to see. Who is going to be brave and share their goals here? Come on, you know you wanna. :)

First, I have to say how impressed/shocked I am to say that you're going to write a novel! Wow! Talk about dreaming big! You go, girl!
I've been thinking about this since your post yesterday. Don't think I can comment on what I want to do about Spirituality yet, but I've already started working on health (lost 12 pounds!). The hard one for me is relationships~~too busy working, too hyper-focused on things that I should let go of.....that's what I want to work on. Thanks for making me 'narrow it down'.
Yay for you--writing a novel!!! This comes as no surprise as I believe I'd read you have won awards for your work in the recent past. Go for it!!!
I would love to hear about your experiences with art journaling--hope you'll share!
Regarding my May goals, well many of them are related to personal growth (reading at least 2 non-fiction's per mo.), carving out time for artist's dates, joining Toastmaster's, etc. Fun, but good-for-me stuff. ;)
Thanks for the inspirations, Terry! T.
OK....I'll share. But setting some realistic goals is gonna take me a little bit. Here's my first goal......Share my goals by tomorrow morning! (I'm a homework procrastinator.)
Great goals!! I hope you will let us read some of your book this time.lol
I have been thinking about mine. One of them you and I have talked about in the past. I need to make my self set a date to finish said goal.
In the area of self-care I would really like to be able to find some time to myself everyday. Ideally I would be able to take a small walk, but just a little bit of quite time every day would be wonderful. However I am going to have to enlist some help from JP so I'm not sure I can commit to that goal yet. So....... I'm setting a date and not committing to any goals yet,....... I'm a total slacker!:)
Great! I wish you all the success in your indeavors! You can do it! Hi Terry, stopped by to visit and say hello! Hugs
Hmmm, I'm not sure I can set multiple goals for multiple categories without overwhelming myself. I think it's good to have a final aim of where you're headed (since that's what goal-setting is, after all), but I might map out one category in full, then just a first step to begin improving the rest I want to work on. Otherwise it's going to be a pretty long list, LOL. I better go have a heart-to-heart with my wheel and see what it has to say!

I need to read up on this and get started! Just dropped by to let you know that I just nominated you for The Versatile Blogger award. Check it out at http://cupcakeloveaffair.blogspot.com/2012/05/another-award-im-versatile-blogger.html. Thanks for the inspiration!!
www.cupcakeloveaffair.blogspot.com
Way to go, writing your own novel!!! I'll commit to two goals... 5 mins of trying to meditate and try to do at least one household chore each day.
I'm a little behind on my wheel (finally making it today!) but I will share as soon as I get it finished!

Right. No longer at 21. Yeah, exactly. You get it.
Um, you have four kids.

We’ve all been canceled already. We can do anything we want. We can fix our hair, pick our nose. We can, we can talk to flat earthers, whatever. We we’re not scared.
Most excellent. Yeah. Yeah. I’m based in Colorado. I, I lived in the Bay Area for over nine years, and, uh, I moved about a year ago to the, the great state of Colorado.
You know what I am gonna do? What’s that? I am going to, um, go over here and I’m gonna type in Scott. Sure. And I’m going to, um, switch your name, if you don’t mind, so that if people wanna follow you on, um, Instagram
They have your handle. So I just switch your name right there.
Perfect. That’s me. Okay,
Cool. Yeah.
Um, so, so I, so the, the vast majority, I, I, I believe this, the vast majority of the people who listen to this podcast believe in extreme personal accountability and personal responsibility. And they’ve come to that conclusion, I think more recently. And, and, and they came through that conclusion through doing CrossFit through, um, through a lot of, you know, personal discomfort and realizing that, uh, and then, and then through I think the, um, we, we had a great leader named Greg Glassman, and he told us that CrossFit was the cure to the world’s most affecting problem. And that actually, even though he was the fitness guy at our foundation of CrossFit, was nutrition, and that that would actually get you to the 95 yard line. And it broke his heart to say that, but that fitness wasn’t even necessary if you ate perfectly well. That really, it’s just what you put into your body.
Hmm. And through that, um, uh, through that and through the pandemic and through realizing our relationship, I think as a cohort in the CrossFit community with doctors, has really changed. We see doctors more as something that we need if we get shot, uh, by a gun or if we fall out of a, or if we have, you know, serious burns. But, um, or if, you know, a car tire goes flying through the windshield of your car, you know, then you need a doctor. But for a lot of this other stuff, you need to make, um, life for other things, you need to make lifestyle choices. And I didn’t, I’m embarrassed to say that I didn’t realize that kind of chiropractor was that kind of doctor that it, that they also believed at, at their foundation, that the body could heal itself
Given the opportunity.
Yeah. That’s how I grew up in the, in the, in the world of chiropractic. I mean, they really were the first like og uh, internal like integrative medicine doctors, you know, within the functional medicine framework to some degree. But they had thought that if they could align the body in a certain way, and they still do, that, the body would be able to naturally heal itself as a result of going through the process of realigning itself. And most chiropractors were not just focused on the, the back and the spine, but also focused on nutrition, focused on optimizing your life, your, your exercise. And you make a good point earlier about exercise. I mean, you can’t exercise yourself out of a shitty diet. It just doesn’t work. I mean, certainly you can, you can, you can, you can try, um, but you’re not going to get to the same place because it really is significantly impacted by what we put in our mouth every day as our nutrition.
So, I mean, exercise is extremely important. That is for sure. However, your diet, your lifestyle, uh, everything from what goes into your mouth to the stress that you’re under every day are as important, uh, as well. I mean, if you’re simply, simply not going to get there just with going to CrossFit or going to any other exercise regimen. However, um, exercise is what we call one of those cornerstone habits, which means that once you start exercising, you typically want to do other things that are healthy for you as well. So you start exercising and then, you know, you decide you’re not gonna drink alcohol, every alcohol every night, because you wanna get up in the morning and go to CrossFit or go work out, or go take your spin class or get on your Peloton, or whatever it might be. So, and then as a result of that, your relationships get better because exercise also helps with various chemicals in your brain that make you feel better.
Like endorphins is the most commonly known, but also your endocannabinoid system, the system that actually regulates how your body responds to stress, how your body responds to feelings of, uh, of happiness and of sadness and things like that. Because there’s these chemicals in your brain called endocannabinoids. These are natural, natural cannabinoids in our brain that our brain makes all those all the time. One of them’s called anandamide, which is the most common one, which is actually a Sanskrit word for bliss. So this is something that CBD also regulates as well, by increasing the amount of an aide in your brain. So anyway, so the short story is that exercise could be a fantastic foundational or cornerstone habit that can allow you multiple changes in your daily life, in your life going forward. Uh, but it’s not the exercise itself per se, but it’s the result of the exercise and the results of the other lifestyle changes that you make that truly make the difference.
It, it’s, it’s the gateway drug to happiness. Yeah.
The lifestyle changes, just the gateway drugs to lifestyle changes.
I mean, and we also,
I quit smoking from, I started when I was doing CrossFit. I was like, Man, the smoking’s not, it’s not working. I have, I’m gonna have to choose.
Right. Yeah. Smoking’s a good one too. Like that’s a very common one that people will give up if they start exercising a lot. I mean, we know that the study is on depression, for example. Exercise is just as good as antidepressants. It’s not inferior, which means it’s the same if you can exercise every day, it’s as good as being on a medication, uh, for depression most of the time. I mean, there are certainly some times when somebody’s severely depressed and things are required immediately, but in general, like for the majority of people, it’s the same. So yes, cornerstone habit, gateway, drug, all those things.
Um, all of that being said, um, you became a physician. Mm-hmm. <affirmative> like a real physician. Like, hello doctor, you wear this stethoscope. You did all the school, you did the residency. Indeed. Took all the hard tests. You had big pharma try to brainwash you, <laugh>, Um, uh, and yet you were raised, um, by a chiropractor hardcore still. Your, at your dad Allen, he’s still, still active, right?
Oh, yeah, yeah. The Northport Wellness Center in Northport, New York on Long Island. Yeah. He’s still doing it.
So why, why did you go that way?
Well, I think there was a number of different things going on at the time. I, I think going back and looking at it and remembering, I knew that I liked being involved in healing and being involved in patient care. I grew up in his office. I did everything from play in the front desk when I was two years old to collecting money when I was 15. And so I really loved that ecosystem, but I also realized that there was a lot that chiropractors couldn’t do in the sense that they were limited from their scope and their licensure. And I really wanted the potential to do anything that I could in the, in the larger scheme of being a practitioner. So kind of taking the best of all worlds. And I had very high minded ideas as any 18 year old would as far as being able to bridge the chasm between alternative and conventional healthcare.
And, and during my training, I definitely had my challenges in the sense of being involved in the system as significantly as I was. But I did see, as you mentioned briefly earlier, that acute care medicine is actually quite fantastic in what it can do in helping people with serious medical conditions. And what it’s really bad at though, is preventative care. We have some ways of doing some preventative things that are okay, but in general, the system is just kind of keeping you, uh, basically the same as you are maybe slightly different here and there, but not doing a huge amount to shift your, your trajectory is what it comes down to. So the trajectory shifting really does happen outside of the conventional system. And that really can take a lot of different, uh, it can go a lot of different ways. It can take a lot of different flavors depending on the type of system that you feel most aligned to.
But there’s obviously the big bucket of integrative care. There’s, there’s functional medicine, There’s a practice that we’ve developed, uh, with, uh, with one of my companies called Health Optimization Medicine in practice, which is a nonprofit training doctors and practitioners on how to optimize health rather than treat disease. I mean, so there’s a lot more options for people now to really look at the, the foundational stuff. And instead of just looking at the disease focused care, cuz if you’re looking at foundational biomarkers of cellular health, of gut health, of immune health, of hormone health, and that really is the foundation of our health over the long term. And so, in my opinion, uh, it, that’s where people really should be starting if they can. Obviously, if you have an acute issue, you need to take care of it, but focusing on your foundational biology is really important.
And, uh, and from there, you know, then building from there and going from there and, and including other types of modalities as you need to. But so for me, it really became, uh, medical school became this idea and this practice for me where I learned to understand the physiology, the patho pathophysiology, and then also to kind of discover what might be the best way for me to integrate this. And, and that became in the, that became really, uh, really solidified in my, in me when I did some rotations and understood more about hyperbaric oxygen therapy versus where I specialized after finishing medical school and finishing my residency in internal medicine is, is a way to really harness the power of very, uh, very important molecule oxygen in lots of, of healing modalities, recovery modalities, optimization types of ways, and how you can integrate it with using conventional and integrative care in ways for people to truly optimize and how they did over the long term. So hyperbaric therapy became my specialty, and that’s what I still do as a primary thing now in consulting with people all over the world, uh, clinics, patients and helping optimize protocols and looking at not only the hyperbaric protocols itself, but what you can do before, during, and after to truly, um, leverage the technology and see it really make the changes in people that we truly see. If you can do a more holistic approach,
Um, and definitely we will get to the hyperbaric chamber that is like, that, that’s the gonna be the dessert I think of this conversation. That’s, uh, what you’re doing is, um, I could only imagine what it’s like being you because you’re on the, well, I enjoy it cuz of this podcast, but you’re on this frontier every day is must be so exciting for you because you get to see kind of like magic every day. You get to see stuff, you probably see stuff at least once a week. I’m guessing that, man, I can’t even share this. They’re gonna think I’m fucking crazy or this is gonna go, this is like, I can’t even believe what I just saw. Right. And you, and, and, well, we’ll get to that, the hyperbaric chamber and, and, and how fantastic it is. Was any part of the fact that you went to a medical school like an f u to your dad, like, fuck dad, I’m not like you, you chiropractor, watch this, watch me get into, uh, get a job at Pfizer.
No, there was never any of that. No revel in you? No. I mean, I had a little bit when I was in high school like everybody else, but it wasn’t in, in school. I was always a good student. I always did well and I studied and all those kinds of things, but it wasn’t, there wasn’t like any, it was actually in lots of conversations with him where I decided, and he just, and he agreed that medical school would be the right choice for me at the time, just so that I had the additional education and then I could go for, I go in any direction really that I wanted to after that. So, um, so no, actually there was no f at all at this.
It’s, it’s, it’s amazing, um, how little, when you start digging, I’ll use circumcision as the, uh, example, if you, if you have a son who’s uncircumcised and you live in the United States, finding information about it that’s like accurate and right is like, it’s, it’s crazy. It’s like it’s, I mean, you could ask a hundred doctors and they don’t know shit. You could ask a thousand doctors and they don’t know shit. Why should you pull the skin back? Uh, should it, should it be cleaned? Is it dangerous? I mean, they just don’t know shit. You’re better off just finding a dude who, who’s intact. Uh, it’s, um, and yet you were brought up on, on a side, on a, on, on a side that where you, you don’t necessarily ask physicians, you ask people, um, who are into this integrative medicine.
Well, I think for me, it’s really important to look at your clinical practice, right? Seeing who people, seeing people come in and every day. And, and certainly I saw these kinds of, you know, miraculous types of things when I was younger in the chiropractic framework, but I also saw where there was limitations in the sense that sometimes people really just needed to go to the hospital and really get treated right and get that work done, and then, then they can take the time and be more sustainable in their health over the long term. So I mean, I certainly think that over the last 20 years or so, um, since I almost, since I started my medical school training in 2003 at this point, um, that’s gonna be almost 20 years now. It’s crazy. Um, you know, that there’s been a lot more changes in how, uh, how much doctors know and what the information is out there.
I mean, when I trained, uh, the specialty of functional medicine was just getting started and it was very, very new. And we thought that, like, for example, the gut was something that was okay to, to bash with antibiotics and didn’t have any problems except for causing, uh, an infection called c diff. And now we know that the gut microbiota and the gut ecosystem is so important to your overall health for so many different reasons. And this is even seeping into medical school. And that’s, that’s a great thing. But the, the challenge with, with conventional practice is that, uh, it takes about 20 years or so for things to hit the conventional world that started off as being, you know, fringe in quotes, right? So one of the things that I work on a lot is something called metabolomics, which is the, the, uh, assessment of cellular biology in real time cellular processes.
And this is just starting to hit the conventional world. Now. There’s a paper that was just written last year calling metabolomics the stethoscope, the stethoscope, excuse me, of the 21st century. This is the idea of looking at your cellular biology in real time and then being able to make an analysis that helps optimize your cellular health, et cetera, as you are looking at that foundation of somebody’s health, not only from a disease state, but from a, a health focused state too. Now, of course, the conventional docs are more interested in disease than they are in health, because that’s what we learn and that’s what’s, you know, quote unquote more interesting and more acutely treated as opposed to focusing on somebody’s health, which takes time and doesn’t have the same, uh, initial benefit, doesn’t have the same immediate gratification for it as it would be to treat a disease and, you know, cut something out or, or use medication to do something, et cetera.
So, you know, we, doctors are just like any, anybody else, they love immediate gratification. And so not having that immediate gratification is really hard for doctors as well. So I think things are changing and I think there’s more information out there. I think there’s more integrative specialists out there in various types of ecosystems, whether it be chiropractors or naturopaths, or even doc, even MDs and dos now. So I think there’s more out there. I think, you know, I think that has changed a lot, but certainly to get uh, in into this as a patient is a challenge because you gotta find somebody that’s interested in you and, and sustaining your health over the long term, potentially. You have to really, it’s not easy to find a doctor that truly will align with you, but it is easier now than it ever has been. So at least that, that is a positive.
Um, I, I was speaking to this doctor, uh, I don’t know, it was about a year ago, and they were telling me that, uh, they had a patient who had, uh, you know, diagnosed with type two diabetes and they were talking to them about diet and what they recommended that the, that their first course of action should be. And they, uh, administrator found out about that and, uh, immediately gave them some disciplinary action, told ’em to call the patient back and tell them no, that didn explained to them the protocol that the hospital had in place, which was, you know, metformin, et cetera, go down that path. Sure. And, and at that point I realized that yeah, they’re, they’re, a lot of doctors are put in the situations where their docents of death, right? They’re going to help you, um, live with your sickness instead of help you, uh, I, I guess cure it
Or try to reverse it at least, or try to make it like, go into the opposite direction. And, and, uh, the system is set up to make it very difficult to help with the reversal of various types of illness and conditions. Because like for the most part, you’re getting insurance coverage for your primary care visit and you only have 15 minutes with your doctor. So, and most, most medical schools treat, actually do very little to treat nutrition very, do very little to treat lifestyle. And that’s just not part of the curriculum. So you have to learn it on your own is a doc. And, and that’s, and that’s difficult. It’s not. And then, you know, what often happens is that you have the doctors that go into the integrative specialties typically are people, there are doctors that had to go through their own health challenges to get outside of the system, get help, and then realize that it was time for them to look outside their specialty and do additional training and in different types of modalities or, or practices to truly help people.
So you’ll find that the ma majority, I would say the majority of docs that I know that have gotten into integrative medicine, um, have gotten in because of their own health challenges. And so that is, it’s common and you go to the doctor, you feel like shit, you can’t think you have brain fog, you have fatigue, you have aches and pains, but you know, all your laboratory work looks normal, right? So then they say, it’s not anything going on with you, you’re, this is in your head or something like that. But all they’re looking at is disease focused markers. They’re not looking at markers that are health focused, so they’re not doing things outside the conventional that doesn’t have, you know, randomized controlled data. So, and as a result of that, um, they’re not getting the full workup that they probably need. And, and also what’s what’s challenging is that a lot of the laboratory normal values that you see when you go to your doctor’s office are not truly normal values for your age, their age ranges.
That could be anywhere from like a, like a thyroid level, for example. Like, you can go to the thy, get your TSH checked, and it could be, uh, the normal range is somewhere, is is the average range of at like, of a nine year old to like a 90 year old, right? So that’s the range that they use as your normal range. But if you’re like 65 years old, do you wanna, or do you wanna have a TSH level of a 90 year old? Do you wanna have a TSH level of a 20 year old? Which one do you want to have? Right? So what are we most optimized? Is that typically between an age of about 21 to 30 years of age? And so that’s really the normal ranges that we would be looking for under most circumstances. And so when I go to a lab, I know that that’s the case, and you’re going to get like hormones checked or, or vitamins and minerals checked.
Like, do you want to have a range level? Do you wanna have a level that’s the, the average of somebody that’s 65 If you’re, if you’re 45, for example, right? You wanna have the average at least of being a 45 year old person. So, um, it’s very difficult to navigate the system as a result of all these nuances, but it’s important to know that there are ways to optimize health and look at these, these levels more in a, in a range that would be more optimal for you and not optimal for somebody that’s older than you, or maybe even your age if you’re on the older side.
Do you know anyone else, like, um, yourself who, who who became a physician, went to medical school, became bur board certified physician, knowing that your goal was to, um, work in integrated, uh, medicine?
Um, you know,
Even one person,
I mean, I know a lot of integrated medical docs, um, right, I, I, I know that there’s, and I know a lot of ’em that are not MDs and dos like naturopaths, for example, Right? And, uh, chiropractors that certainly went in looking for this particular framework, right? I have, I, I don’t know this, I’m just thinking about some of the integrative docs. I know most of them have had their own health challenges. Some of them, um, had significant experiences with, with patients when they were early on in practice where they realized that they couldn’t help them, that they really weren’t making a huge dent in their, uh, in their trajectories. I have one doc that I know that was a, at least two docs actually that are er docs that saw what was coming in and just saw the, the challenges that the, there these patients were facing and saw how little they were really doing to, to change their trajectories. So I think it runs across the board different experiences overall. So, um, but I, I don’t know very many, uh, sons of chiropractors or daughters of chiropractors that went to medical school after getting, getting that framework as a kid, that’s for sure.
Did, did anything in you change? Did, did you, um, did you for, uh, I don’t know, for, did you ever feel like going to the dark side? Was there any temptation to be Oh, totally. Yeah. I mean, and was that, was that temptation? Financially? Finance based cash. Gotcha. All
Right. Yeah. I mean, if you, if you’re gonna get outta school and be a dermatologist and make $700,000 a year if you’re gonna be a specialist like that, um, it’s, it’s obviously provo provocative, right? It’s like, woo, that’s, that’s a lot of money. I could just look at skin all day and I could do a couple things here and I could make $700,000 a year. I mean, it’s a lot of money, right?
Yeah. It is
A lot of money. And you have to think about, a lot of people coming outta medical school are significantly in debt as well, so they’re not coming out as a, as a clean slate. I mean, I sign, I had significant debt coming outta school, and I had, I had some help, right? And then you have people that had to take loans out for college and then for medical school, and then for residency and for living and housing and boarding. You’re talking about, I know also people that came out of medical school and college with $400,000 in debt. So this is like almost a half a million dollars in debt. So are you gonna take a job that has more risk, for example, because you have all this debt to pay back as soon as you finish your, your training. And so it’s not an easy, not an easy computation or a thought experiment or real life experiment for people as they’re going through school to know that they have to make a certain money.
And, and I wasn’t any different. I, I came outta school knowing that I needed to get a real job, and I ended up doing, uh, and I, I continue to do part-time work in the hospital actually. And because I, you know, I don’t mind it actually, but I also know that for me, my main focus is the, the work that I do for optimizing health. But a lot of people like me have to take a real job when they get outta school knowing that they have to pay back loans, they have families, et cetera. So it’s, uh, it’s, it’s a significant challenge for people.
And, and that is actually, um, by chance where you saw your first type of barric chamber, right?
During my medical school training, Yeah. It was when I was in my third year of medical school, I was doing a rotation at a place called Shock Trauma in Baltimore, which is a very well known shock and trauma center where people train all over the world in shock and trauma, even the military does, because, you know, Baltimore has been known for a long time to be a violent place. And so gunshot wounds, stabbings, burns, carbon monoxide poisoning. So, um, I ended up seeing a couple people that went into the chamber for carbon monoxide poisoning and severe infections. And I saw some, some amazing things happen to these people. And I, when I learned it was just oxygen and pressure, I had significant, I had like a light bulb come off, you know, go off in my head because I was like, Wow, this is just so simple and this is some amazing things that it can do.
And then, and in the, in the acute setting, and then I did my own research and saw what it was being used for across the world for healing and recovery and, and all these other modality integrations that were happening around the world, not so much in the United States, but especially for things that we had a really hard time treating and still do, uh, in medical, in the medical world, like patient patients that had strokes, for example, or traumatic brain injuries or patients with, with, uh, with Alzheimer’s or Parkinson’s or, or the, with chronic infections and, um, and significant injuries otherwise that really were not being well treated in the acute care settings. And I saw that there was some significant data that showed hyperbaric therapy could help. And then, then that’s really what I decided to, to kind of go into this, into the realm of, of the hyperbaric world.
Also knowing that it had these conventional indications. It’s insurance covered for 14 indications in the United States, and then there’s about 50 or 60 other conditions where there’s really great data and you could use an integrative perspective to truly help people. And there was also this other delineation where if you had an acute injury, hyperbaric therapy was fantastically helpful in helping you heal that faster. And it didn’t really matter how much integration and how much other stuff you did, although it, it would help if you had the additional ideas of what you could do before, during, and after the integrations that could help you. But the ability to acutely rev up the process of healing was extremely effective in a lot of different pr a lot of different ways. And we have evidence that, of that acute stroke, acute heart attack, acute traumatic brain injury, now with some studies that are happening, acute spinal cord injury, acute trauma to a limb, partial amputations, acute infections like necrotizing fasciitis, which is flesh eating bacteria, et cetera. Like you get them in the chamber.
But why that, why that, Um, it doesn’t like all the oxygen, right?
Yeah. That particular infection is, uh, it’s called an anaerobic or low oxygen, thriving in infection. So you get that person into a high oxygen environment along with antibiotics, along with other things like wound care and even surgery at times. You can see significant benefit and, uh, reversing of, you know, dramatic, uh, problems, dramatic injuries, dramatic surgeries, like a, like amputations and things like that, that typically happen under that circumstance.
Uh, no, I don’t think the penis pump is considered a hyperbaric chamber, but thank you for the, uh, thoughtful, uh, uh, question. Yes, very, very thought. Oh, where does the ox the oxygen? Um, I like posting those comments cuz they think I’m gonna be afraid to post them <laugh>. Um, uh, where does in, in those hyperbaric chambers, does that machine? Do you have to like constantly replenish it with oxygen tanks?
So the way it works works is that you have a, you have a chamber that simulates the pressure that you would feel under a certain amount of sea water. So that pressure can be anywhere between 1.3 to about 2.4 ata, which is our therapeutic window. And that equates to about 10 feet of sea water to about 30, 45 feet of sea water. So if you can imagine if you’re under 45 sea feet of sea water, all that water above you is exerting a pressure on you because water is extremely heavy. So it’s that heaviness that we simulate in a hyperbaric environment and then we add oxygen. Oxygen is what we need to breathe. We need oxygen to make energy without oxygen. We don’t live very long, as we all know, oxygen allows you to make ATP in your mitochondria, which are the known as the powerhouse or the, the batteries of our cells.
We have mitochondria in all of our cells except for red blood cells. The most mitochondria we have are in our brain, in our heart, our liver, in our muscle tissue especially have lots of mitochondria because we need to make lots of energy when we need it. So in a hyperbaric environment, we pressurize the tank and then we give you extra oxygen. That extra oxygen can be given via mask, via hood, or it could be a hundred percent oxygen in the chamber itself, depending on the chamber that you have. As you are getting the oxygen. And as you are getting the pressure, the oxygen’s being pumped in the chamber’s being pressurized, and then the chamber is continuing to filter itself so that you’re continuing to get fresh oxygen and the pressure continues to ize and go through. | 2023-14/0037/en_head.json.gz/11054 | {"url": "https://thesevanpodcast.com/609-dr-scott-sherr/", "partition": "head_middle", "language": "en",

The ‘Queen of Latin’, Shakira turns 46 today. The Grammy winning singer is one of the most influential figures in the music industry.
The singer has released many memorable hits over the years. As the occasion demands, let us take a look at some of the songs that defined the singer’s career.
Waka Waka
If the discussion is about Shakira’s discography, we must obviously start with the song, “Waka Waka.” The singer released this as the official song of 2010 FIFA World Cup in South Africa. The song met with huge commercial success and went on to become one of the most popular songs of the century, worldwide. Shakira wrote, composed and produced the hit song alongside John Hill. We cannot imagine a world cup season without this song being repeatedly used in all the socials. ‘Waka Waka’ is undoubtedly the biggest hit of Shakira’s career.
Hips don’t lie
Shakira collaborated with Haitian rapper Wyclef Jean for this song. The song became a huge hit worldwide and earned the singer many accolades including People’s Choice Award. The song was released in 2006 as second single from the singer’s seventh album, ‘Oral Fixation, Vol.2’
Whenever, Wherever
‘Whenever, Wherever’ is another superhit from the singer’s discography. The song which was written by Shakira and Gloria Estefan, is a perfect mix of Latin and Andean music. It’s been more than two decades since the song’s release but people still get chills while listening to this masterpiece.
Can’t remember to forget you
Shakira released this song in 2014 on which the singer collaborated with Rihanna. The pop song was an instant hit and the music video featuring both the stars was all over the internet. The song has garnered over 1.2 billion views on YouTube and is regarded as one of the all time classics.
There are many more songs that defined the singer’s career, spanning over two decades like Chantaje, La Tortura, Loca, Beautiful Liar and more.
We once again wish the ‘Queen of Latin Music’ a very Happy Birthday and hope she continues to entertain us with her music!

SLFA Transfer Window Opens, Ends 10th January
VP Digital December 9, 2020 12:20 pm September 17, 2021 0
LOCAL football clubs are reminded that the Official Window for the transfer of players from one club to another officially started yesterday (Tuesday 8th December 2020) and concludes on Sunday 10th January 2021.

According to the Saint Lucia Football Association (SLFA), all transfers must be facilitated in FIFA Connect by the respective clubs.
Once a transfer is granted, the player cannot request a cancellation or a transfer to another club, as the player will have to await the next transfer window.
If a player is transferred without his knowledge he must report this to the General Secretary of the SLFA Inc. stating that he did not request a transfer after which an investigation will be launched to determine the status of the transfer request.
All transfers are free and no club can deny a transfer. If any club frustrates the transfer process, the player will be given the transfer by the SLFA Inc. following its investigation into the matter. A club that is found to be deliberately holding back a request for a transfer can be sanctioned for this practice.
If a player has outstanding matters with his former club and requests a transfer, his club cannot deny the transfer. However, the player must own up to the matters and agree in writing to undertake to rectify the outstanding matters before the Association grants the transfer. If the player chooses not to honor the agreement after he receives the transfer he will be sanctioned by the Association.
Clubs are also reminded that all championships organised by the SLFA Inc. rely on the players registered in FIFA Connect. This means that only players registered in FIFA Connect are able to play the SLFA’s competitions for clubs and districts and participate in SLFA sanctioned activities.
For the registration of minors, these are done, case by case and can only be requested by the parents who must justify the reason for the request for the transfer. The request for a transfer for minors is not automatic as the association will decide based on the information presented if a transfer should be granted. | 2023-14/0037/en_head.json.gz/11057 | {"url": "https://thevoiceslu.com/2020/12/slfa-transfer-window-opens-ends-10th-january/", "partition": "head_middle", "language": "en", "source_domain": "thevoiceslu.com", "date_download": "2023-03-20T10:43:01Z", "digest": "sha1:HEPDVUPZ3GDYXWPO4EGZJXDNYMRMSGLN"} | {"ccnet_length": [[0, 2246, 2246.0]], "ccnet_original_length": [[0, 2246, 5640.0]], "ccnet_nlines": [[0, 2246, 11.0]], "ccnet_original_nlines": [[0, 2246, 115.0]], "ccnet_language_score": [[0, 2246, 0.97]], "ccnet_perplexity": [[0, 2246, 297.6]], "ccnet_bucket": [[0, 2246, 0.0]], "rps_doc_curly_bracket": [[0, 2246, 0.0]], "rps_doc_ldnoobw_words": [[0, 2246, 0.0]], "rps_doc_lorem_ipsum": [[0, 2246, 0.0]], "rps_doc_stop_word_fraction": [[0, 2246, 0.43373494]], "rps_doc_ut1_blacklist": [[0, 2246, null]], "rps_doc_frac_chars_dupe_10grams": [[0, 2246, 0.0]], "rps_doc_frac_chars_dupe_5grams": [[0, 2246, 0.03271538]], "rps_doc_frac_chars_dupe_6grams": [[0, 2246, 0.0]], "rps_doc_frac_chars_dupe_7grams": [[0, 2246, 0.0]], "rps_doc_frac_chars_dupe_8grams": [[0, 2246, 0.0]], "rps_doc_frac_chars_dupe_9grams": [[0, 2246, 0.0]], "rps_doc_frac_chars_top_2gram": [[0, 2246, 0.04798255]], "rps_doc_frac_chars_top_3gram": [[0, 2246, 0.02126499]], "rps_doc_frac_chars_top_4gram": [[0, 2246, 0.01308615]], "rps_doc_frac_all_caps_words": [[0, 2246, 0.03373494]], "rps_doc_frac_lines_end_with_ellipsis": [[0, 2246, 0.0]], "rps_doc_frac_no_alph_words": [[0, 2246, 0.11084337]], "rps_doc_frac_unique_words": [[0, 2246, 0.4403183]], "rps_doc_mean_word_length": [[0, 2246, 4.86472149]], "rps_doc_symbol_to_word_ratio": [[0, 2246, 0.0]], "rps_doc_unigram_entropy": [[0, 2246, 4.58465263]], "rps_doc_word_count": [[0, 2246, 377.0]], "rps_lines_ending_with_terminal_punctution_mark": [[0, 46, 0.0], [46, 104, 0.0], [104, 316, 1.0], [316, 383, 0.0], [383, 516, 1.0], [516, 675, 1.0], [675, 924, 1.0], [924, 1240, 1.0], [1240, 1639, 1.0], [1639, 1929, 1.0], [1929, 2246, 1.0]], "rps_lines_javascript_counts": [[0, 46, 0.0], [46, 104, 0.0], [104, 316, 0.0], [316, 383, 0.0], [383, 516, 0.0], [516, 675, 0.0], [675, 924, 0.0], [924, 1240, 0.0], [1240, 1639, 0.0], [1639, 1929, 0.0], [1929, 2246, 0.0]], "rps_lines_num_words": [[0, 46, 7.0], [46, 104, 11.0], [104, 316, 33.0], [316, 383, 10.0], [383, 516, 20.0], [516, 675, 28.0], [675, 924, 43.0], [924, 1240, 56.0], [1240, 1639, 67.0], [1639, 1929, 46.0], [1929, 2246, 56.0]], "rps_lines_numerical_chars_fraction": [[0, 46, 0.04545455], [46, 104, 0.2962963], [104, 316, 0.05288462], [316, 383, 0.0], [383, 516, 0.0], [516, 675, 0.0], [675, 924, 0.0], [924, 1240, 0.0], [1240, 1639, 0.0], [1639, 1929, 0.0], [1929, 2246, 0.0]], "rps_lines_start_with_bulletpoint": [[0, 46, 0.0], [46, 104, 0.0], [104, 316, 0.0], [316, 383, 0.0], [383, 516, 0.0], [516, 675, 0.0], [675, 924, 0.0], [924, 1240, 0.0], [1240, 1639, 0.0], [1639, 1929, 0.0], [1929, 2246, 0.0]], "rps_lines_uppercase_letter_fraction": [[0, 46, 0.19565217], [46, 104, 0.0862069], [104, 316, 0.05188679], [316, 383, 0.17910448], [383, 516, 0.10526316], [516, 675, 0.00628931], [675, 924, 0.03212851], [924, 1240, 0.02531646], [1240, 1639, 0.01253133], [1639, 1929, 0.0862069], [1929, 2246, 0.00630915]], "rps_doc_ml_palm_score": [[0, 2246, 0.85269201]], "rps_doc_ml_wikipedia_score": [[0, 2246, null]], "rps_doc_ml_wikiref_score": [[0, 2246, 0.58889335]], "rps_doc_books_importance": [[0, 2246, -96.1460797]], "rps_doc_openwebtext_importance": [[0, 2246, 13.81847133]], "rps_doc_wikipedia_importance": [[0, 2246, -12.2300107]], "rps_doc_num_sentences": [[0, 2246, 17.0]]} |

The Problem of Overcriminalization
Overcriminalization is a dangerous trend that one expert defines in a nutshell as “an overreliance on the criminal laws to affect the way people behave.”
What if I told you that our federal codes define approximately 4,500 federal crimes—so many, in fact, that no one, including the government, actually knows how many—but that we still feel the need to enact over 50 new crimes per year? What if I told you that, in addition to all these statutes, there are many thousands more federal regulations that, if violated, can also result in criminal liability?
You might tell me to go on home with that hippie propaganda, but actually, you can find these very statements on the website for the Judiciary Committee of the U.S. House of Representatives.
And as it turns out, nine months ago, the Judiciary Committee commissioned a bipartisan group of five Republicans and five Democrats to study the problem of overcriminalization.
Since then, the Overcriminalization Task Force has held six substantive hearings on Capitol Hill and received testimony from prosecutors, defenders, law professors, and other witnesses on a number of topics. These include the proliferation of needless criminal laws in general, the expansion of regulatory crimes in particular, the overfederalization of criminal law in areas of traditional state jurisdiction, and the need for a meaningful intent requirement throughout our criminal codes.
All of the task force’s hearings and the written testimony of witnesses are available through these links, courtesy of the National Association of Criminal Defense Lawyers.
But outside the Beltway, people are taking note as well.
Recently, billionaire businessmen Charles and David Koch sponsored a bipartisan panel on criminal justice reform. Among the statistics highlighted were that the United States holds 5% of the world’s total population but houses a grossly disproportionate share of its prison population, and we lock up people at a higher rate than any country in the world. That is likely the case even if we assume that the data emanating from places like China or Russia are not entirely reliable. It led one of the panelists to wonder why, asking rhetorically, “Are we a nation of bad people? I don’t think we are.” | 2023-14/0037/en_head.json.gz/11059 | {"url": "https://thinkdefenseaplc.com/the-problem-of-overcriminalization/", "partition": "head_middle", "language": "en", "source_domain": "thinkdefenseaplc.com", "date_download": "2023-03-20T10:30:10Z", "digest": "sha1:5DQSAGONK6NWFE3M3ZYFT22LPJLMTP2H"} | {"ccnet_length": [[0, 2282, 2282.0]], "ccnet_original_length": [[0, 2282, 4206.0]], "ccnet_nlines": [[0, 2282, 9.0]], "ccnet_original_nlines": [[0, 2282, 60.0]], "ccnet_language_score": [[0, 2282, 0.94]], "ccnet_perplexity": [[0, 2282, 247.1]], "ccnet_bucket": [[0, 2282, 0.0]], "rps_doc_curly_bracket": [[0, 2282, 0.0]], "rps_doc_ldnoobw_words": [[0, 2282, 0.0]], "rps_doc_lorem_ipsum": [[0, 2282, 0.0]], "rps_doc_stop_word_fraction": [[0, 2282, 0.44444444]], "rps_doc_ut1_blacklist": [[0, 2282, null]], "rps_doc_frac_chars_dupe_10grams": [[0, 2282, 0.0]], "rps_doc_frac_chars_dupe_5grams": [[0, 2282, 0.01921025]], "rps_doc_frac_chars_dupe_6grams": [[0, 2282, 0.01921025]], "rps_doc_frac_chars_dupe_7grams": [[0, 2282, 0.0]], "rps_doc_frac_chars_dupe_8grams": [[0, 2282, 0.0]], "rps_doc_frac_chars_dupe_9grams": [[0, 2282, 0.0]], "rps_doc_frac_chars_top_2gram": [[0, 2282, 0.01334045]], "rps_doc_frac_chars_top_3gram": [[0, 2282, 0.01280683]], "rps_doc_frac_chars_top_4gram": [[0, 2282, 0.03308431]], "rps_doc_frac_all_caps_words": [[0, 2282, 0.01182033]], "rps_doc_frac_lines_end_with_ellipsis": [[0, 2282, 0.0]], "rps_doc_frac_no_alph_words": [[0, 2282, 0.12765957]], "rps_doc_frac_unique_words": [[0, 2282, 0.59836066]], "rps_doc_mean_word_length": [[0, 2282, 5.12021858]], "rps_doc_symbol_to_word_ratio": [[0, 2282, 0.0]], "rps_doc_unigram_entropy": [[0, 2282, 4.9688281]], "rps_doc_word_count": [[0, 2282, 366.0]], "rps_lines_ending_with_terminal_punctution_mark": [[0, 35, 0.0], [35, 189, 1.0], [189, 592, 1.0], [592, 783, 1.0], [783, 961, 1.0], [961, 1452, 1.0], [1452, 1625, 1.0], [1625, 1682, 1.0], [1682, 2282, 1.0]], "rps_lines_javascript_counts": [[0, 35, 0.0], [35, 189, 0.0], [189, 592, 0.0], [592, 783, 0.0], [783, 961, 0.0], [961, 1452, 0.0], [1452, 1625, 0.0], [1625, 1682, 0.0], [1682, 2282, 0.0]], "rps_lines_num_words": [[0, 35, 4.0], [35, 189, 25.0], [189, 592, 69.0], [592, 783, 33.0], [783, 961, 27.0], [961, 1452, 70.0], [1452, 1625, 26.0], [1625, 1682, 10.0], [1682, 2282, 102.0]], "rps_lines_numerical_chars_fraction": [[0, 35, 0.0], [35, 189, 0.0], [189, 592, 0.01534527], [592, 783, 0.0], [783, 961, 0.0], [961, 1452, 0.0], [1452, 1625, 0.0], [1625, 1682, 0.0], [1682, 2282, 0.00169492]], "rps_lines_start_with_bulletpoint": [[0, 35, 0.0], [35, 189, 0.0], [189, 592, 0.0], [592, 783, 0.0], [783, 961, 0.0], [961, 1452, 0.0], [1452, 1625, 0.0], [1625, 1682, 0.0], [1682, 2282, 0.0]], "rps_lines_uppercase_letter_fraction": [[0, 35, 0.08571429], [35, 189, 0.00649351], [189, 592, 0.00992556], [592, 783, 0.03664921], [783, 961, 0.02808989], [961, 1452, 0.01425662], [1452, 1625, 0.03468208], [1625, 1682, 0.03508772], [1682, 2282, 0.02166667]], "rps_doc_ml_palm_score": [[0, 2282, 0.98235625]], "rps_doc_ml_wikipedia_score": [[0, 2282, null]], "rps_doc_ml_wikiref_score": [[0, 2282, 0.58242953]], "rps_doc_books_importance": [[0, 2282, -58.57116022]], "rps_doc_openwebtext_importance": [[0, 2282, 64.67061342]], "rps_doc_wikipedia_importance": [[0, 2282, -60.47044846]], "rps_doc_num_sentences": [[0, 2282, 16.0]]} |

A Rational Defense of the Unborn
Will Lawson
Opinions expressed within are the property of their author and do not necessarily reflect the opinion of any other member or the Tiger Town Observer itself.
One ethical issue that has been heavily politicized and dominates American politics is the treatment of the unborn. This issue disproportionately affects college students because of the rising number of unwanted pregnancies resulting from college “hookup culture.” An overwhelming 60% of abortion patients are reported to be women in their twenties. Hence, abortion is relevant to college students because it disproportionately affects college-age women. Moreover, college students are called to take a stance on abortion when they become voters and are compelled to pick either the pro-choice or pro-life side.
Numerous people with a rudimentary understanding of abortion fail to approach the issue from a philosophical perspective because they incorrectly believe that science alone proves why either side is right. Science is an important tool when pondering abortion, but ultimately the question of how the unborn should be treated needs to be answered with critical ethical thinking. When evaluating abortion, it is essential to stay on the central question: what are the unborn? The debate becomes unproductive with pro-choice slogans such as “my body, my choice” and “no uterus no opinion,” and pro-life arguments such as “abortion is wrong because adoption is a viable option.”
The pro-life argument can be summarized with these three statements: it is generally immoral to kill innocent human beings, science tells us the unborn are human beings, therefore it is wrong to kill the unborn. Everyone agrees that both the human fetus is a part of the human species, and abortion terminates said fetus. The best way pro-choice advocates can refute the pro-life argument is by claiming that there is something beyond simply being a human being that gives people the right to life. I agree with this criticism. While Superman was not quite a member of the human species, I think we can all agree Lex Luther was wrong in trying to kill him. We can also see how it would be wrong to kill a human-like extraterrestrial species even though they are not fundamentally human. This leads to the pro-choice advocate claiming that it is wrong to kill innocent persons, and the unborn aren’t persons yet so abortion is morally acceptable. Consequently, the pro-life stance adjusts its position by claiming that the unborn are in fact persons. Therefore, the issue becomes centralized around personhood and when humans become persons.
If the pro-choice position is rooted in the unborn not being people, they must provide a definition for personhood. These unique definitions fall short because they either set the bar too low, too high, or are obviously arbitrary. For example, one definition of personhood may state that one becomes a person when they can feel pain. This definition sets the bar too low because it would make animals people too, and rat exterminators would need to go to jail for mass genocide. Another definition of personhood may state that one becomes a person when they can think rationally. This definition sets the bar too high because it excludes numerous types of born people such as infants and people in comas. Lastly, some definitions use two requirements such as the ability to feel pain and being a part of the human race. I disagree with these types of definitions because if one condition is not sufficient, it is a blatant attempt to purposefully exclude the unborn through an arbitrary definition. These arbitrary definitions can be very dangerous because they have justified the inhumane treatment of women, African Americans, Jewish people, and more.
If pro-choice definitions fail to solve the personhood issue, what is the pro-life solution? The most compelling argument states that a person is an organism that belongs to a kind with a rational nature. In order to understand this concept, it is essential to understand first and second-order capacities. For example, I am a person as I write this paper because I am acting rationally. This immediate capacity means I have the first-order capacity to be rational. However, when I go to sleep, I am unable to act rationally, but I do not suddenly lose my personhood. This is because when I am asleep I have the capacity to wake up and act rationally. In other words, I have the capacity to be rational. This “double capacity” is known as second-order capacity. Through this concept and this definition, the unborn are persons because they have the second-order capacity to act rationally through belonging to a rational kind. This definition is perfect because it includes all beings with a right to life, whether they belong to the human species or not, and it eliminates all animals and other non-persons.
The definition works, but the pro-life position still needs to prove why one’s nature matters as a factor in establishing value. I believe one’s nature is important because it is a criterion for human flourishing. In other words, a being’s end goal and value are dependent on if they act according to their nature. For example, I am not able to breathe underwater, but that does not mean I am not flourishing because breathing underwater is not a part of my nature. It is, however, a part of my nature to be able to speak. This allows us to conclude that if I was mute, I would not be flourishing, or living to full capacity. Furthermore, if we eliminate nature we lose the ability to make judgments on a being’s value.
The rational kind argument states that a being is a person if they belong to a rational kind. This rational nature is what separates humans from everything else and gives our lives value. The unborn have this rational nature because they have the second-order capacity to act rationally. Consequently, the unborn are persons, therefore giving their life value. A subsequent benefit to accepting that our value comes from our rational nature is the promotion of human equality. If someone believes that the unborn’s life does not have value, they shift the determining factor of value from innate nature to something based on personal ability. This way of thinking accepts the proposition that a person’s value changes based on what they are able to do, and rejects the notion that all human beings are fundamentally equal. When value is rooted in rational nature, however, there is concrete evidence for basic human equality.
The belief that human life is valuable because humans have a rational nature leads to the conclusion that the unborn have personhood and it is morally unacceptable to directly end their life through abortion. This is an important ethical issue, especially amongst college students, because the legalization of abortion furthers a culture of death, as opposed to a culture of equality and the protection of life. As college students, it is vital to take a stance against abortion because we are the most influential in altering the politics and culture of the future. If we truly want equality, the first step is realizing our value comes from our rational nature, and that value gives us inalienable rights both born and unborn.

This article only appeals to pro-life readers and was made for such. I am pro choice, and was curious about the pro life stand point, though it served as a passive aggressive attack. Saying things like, “everyone believes that a fetus is a human being,” is not correct. Not everyone believes that. I really wish this article informed me of something substantial, but sadly it didn’t.

I disagree with the claim that the fetus having personhood leads to the conclusion abortion is morally impermissible. Assuming the fetus has personhood, doesn’t give the fetus the right to the woman’s body and I would argue that the woman has the right to revoke consent for the fetus to use her body at any point in the pregnancy. If someone had a rare disease and I was the only person able to keep them alive by being hooked up to them to constantly transferring blood for 9 months I could consent initially but revoke consent at any time. This would lead to the person’s death and probably considered immoral by most but then person that requires my blood has no right to mine because we are both equal. In cases where I didn’t consent but found myself hooked up to a person I doubt many would find it immoral to unhook myself. In both cases I have the right to remove myself though in the first people may find it reprehensible because of the intial consent but the long-term and negative effects of the decision may only be realized later and circumstances may change. By banning abortion the government would be limiting bodily autonomy and would give the fetus rights over the mother which are antithetical to the values the nation was founded on. This also differs from mandatory vaccinations because banning abortion gives someone rights over another’s body when a vaccine mandate has societal benefits and impacts everyone equally. |

Remembering Gunther Schuller
June 22, 2015 June 22, 2015 by Timothy Judd
Gunther Schuller (1925-2015), Renaissance man of American music
American composer, conductor, horn player, writer, educator, and jazz musician Gunther Schuller passed away yesterday at the age of 89. Schuller’s compositions fused elements of jazz and classical music into a style he called “Third Stream.” His remarkably diverse career included principal horn positions with the Cincinnati Symphony and Metropolitan Opera orchestras in the 1940s and 50s, as well as collaborations with Miles Davis, Dizzy Gillespie and others. In the 1960s and 70s, he was president of New England Conservatory of Music. He served as director of new musical activities at the Tanglewood Music Center, summer home of the Boston Symphony. More recently, he served as artistic director of the Northwest Bach Festival in Spokane, Washington.
Gunther Schuller talks about his musical development and the influence of orchestra playing, Scriabin, Ravel, and Duke Ellington in this 1999 conversation with David Starobin.
Selected Recordings:
Where the Word Ends was written in 2007 for James Levine and the Boston Symphony. In the opening of the piece, ghostly voices emerge out of silence, suddenly thrusting us into a dark world of apprehension. As the piece progresses, we hear faint echoes of the music of Anton Bruckner (9:48), Mahler, Bartok, and Stravinsky. At 21:27, a lonely, jazzy solo horn line briefly emerges. Where the Word Ends is a haunting dreamscape of color and sound.

Verdi’s 200th Birthday
April 14, 2014 October 10, 2013 by Timothy Judd
Today marks the 200th birthday of the great Italian opera composer, Giuseppe Verdi. Verdi wrote dramatically powerful operas such as Aida, Otello, Un Ballo in Maschera and Rigoletto.
Here is the Overture to La forza del destino performed by Riccardo Muti and the Vienna Philharmonic. What moods and dramatic situations are suggested by the music? How does Verdi convey these emotions?
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=thxOV5_YCh4
[quote]The greatness of Verdi is a simple thing. Solitary by nature, he found a way of speaking to limitless crowds, and his method was to sink himself completely into his characters. He never composed music for music’s sake; every phrase helps to tell a story. The most astounding scenes in his work are those in which all the voices come together in a visceral mass— like a human wave that could carry anything before it. The voices at the end of Simon Boccanegra, crying out in grief; the voices at the end of Un ballo, overcome by the spiritual magnificence of a dying man; and, of course, the voices of “Va pensiero,” remembering, in a unison line, the destruction of Jerusalem. In the modern world, we seldom find ourselves in the grip of a single emotion, and this is what Verdi restores to us— the sense of belonging. -Alex Ross, Listen to This[/quote]

Simon Bolivar Youth Orchestra
Ten Tips for Youth Orchestra Students
November 8, 2014 November 7, 2014 by Timothy Judd
Simón Bolívar Youth Orchestra of Venezuela at the 2007 BBC Proms
At its best, orchestra playing is a unique combination of artistry and technical craft. It’s a skill which develops over time. As musicians play together, they develop increasing sensitivity and cohesiveness. With the help of a visionary conductor, a disparate group of highly skilled individuals is forged into a team.
Whether you’re a member of a student ensemble or an amateur performing in a community orchestra, here are a few orchestra playing tips to consider:
[ordered_list style=”decimal”]
Know how your part fits. Preparation goes beyond learning the notes. Be sure to listen to recordings of the piece you’re playing. Understand how your part fits into the whole. Pay attention to sections where the tempo or dynamics change.
Feel the rhythm. Practice with a metronome and pay attention to the subdivisions within larger beats. When playing in the orchestra, feel a sense of collective rhythm. Be careful not to rush, especially in difficult fast passages. Even when it’s fast, you often have more time than you think you have, so fill out every beat. Anchor on important beats. Organize and group notes in ways which allow them to flow naturally. Carefully place pizzicatos so they don’t speak early. For soft pizzicatos consider just touching the string with the tip of your finger and release. Don’t forget to breathe.
Use multiple senses. Imagine how you want the music to sound as you see the notes on the page. Listen to what’s happening around you. If you’re a string player, use peripheral vision to keep track of the section leader’s bow, and other bows around you. Make sure you’re in the same part of the bow as the leader and try to match bow speed. And, of course, watch the conductor.
Bring a pencil, eraser and mute.
Pay attention to balance. Many students would be surprised to hear how softly professional string players can play. A soft dynamic in orchestra repertoire is generally much softer than the same dynamic in solo repertoire. It also requires a different tone color. If someone else in the orchestra has a solo line (usually in the woodwinds or brass), get out of the way and make sure the soloist doesn’t have to force to be heard.
Play for the team. Always be mindful that you’re part of a collective sound. Never try to stick out. Listen to the players around you and blend in terms of sound and intonation.
“Music Police” kill the music. If you hear a mistake, don’t point it out to your colleague. They probably also heard it and will try their best to not repeat it. “Music police” can create a debilitating and backstabbing atmosphere which kills real music making. Never react to a mistake, especially in a performance. Just stay in the “zone” of the piece.
Be ready when the conductor is ready. It’s okay to drop out to mark an occasional bowing change, but never make the conductor wait for you. Use direct eye contact with conductors whenever possible.
Where you sit isn’t important. Every part is essential. If you’re playing second violin, you often have rich inner voices and supporting lines which need to be brought out. Because it’s harder to hear, the people in the back of a section have the hardest job in terms of precision.
Enjoy the sound around you.

“Mam-bo!”
Gustavo Dudamel and the Simon Bolivar Youth Orchestra of Venezuela gave a memorable performance of the Mambo from Leonard Bernstein’s West Side Story at the 2007 BBC Proms at London’s Royal Albert Hall. You can hear them play the full Symphonic Dances from West Side Story here.
The Mambo has transcended West Side Story to become a cultural icon. It’s almost like a twentieth century Ode to Joy.

India Is Considering a Heavy Tax on Large Bitcoin Transactions
The relationship between bitcoin and India has always been a complicated one. Following a lengthy period of preventing bitcoin companies from doing business with banks, India now says it’s considering imposing a large Goods and Services Tax (GST) on all BTC transactions.
India Wants to Impose a GST Tax On BTC
The tax would be around 18 percent. To qualify for the tax, a transaction must be worth more than 40,000 crores. The news comes by way of the Central Economic Intelligence Bureau (CEIB), a division of the country’s finance ministry. The firm has pitched the idea to the Central Board of Indirect Taxes and Customs (CBIC) and claims that this could provide the Indian government with an additional 7,200 crores each year in tax-related revenue alone.
India has never had a positive outlook on bitcoin. In early 2018, the company initiated a ban that prevented all bitcoin and crypto businesses from working with standard banks. Thus, they could not garner bank accounts and were blocked from standard funding and traditional monetary services.
The ban remained in place for roughly two years, though eventually the country’s Supreme Court would deem this kind of activity unconstitutional. The ban was later removed, and it looked like India was really on its way towards becoming a solid bitcoin and cryptocurrency hub, though this is now looking like a dank possibility as well not just because of the new tax, but because India has hinted that it is now looking to ban all crypto trading on a general scale.
The idea was widely criticized, as many analysts believed that with bitcoin and blockchain becoming mainstream forms of finance, the country would initially fall behind its neighbors and lose its competitive edge in the world of modern trades.
However, this new tax could be a direct response to that criticism. While this is purely speculative at the time of writing, it could be alleged that India is listening to the analysts and taking note. Thus, it isn’t looking to ban crypto altogether like it originally announced. Instead, it thinks it can make a little money off its growing crypto base.
It’s Time for Regulators to Step Up
CEIB has said it would like to categorize bitcoin and other forms of crypto as “intangible assets,” which would allow the tax to be levied. One of the big problems that India is facing right now is that cryptocurrency is an unregulated haven. Thus, the government has the right and the leeway to view it through any lens it desires and take steps it deems necessary regardless of what traders think.
Perhaps the newfound tax assessment on bitcoin transactions will give regulators the boost they need to step forward and implement the correct rules so that bitcoin trades don’t have to be so expensive. The GST could potentially lead to the death of crypto activity in India given that people aren’t willing to lose that much money.

Frida Berrigan, Growing Up With the Threat of Pervasive Violence
It’s been a terrible year for gun makers. The venerable Remington filed a Chapter 11 bankruptcy after its sales fell 27.5% in the first nine months of Donald Trump’s presidency. (Its officials had expected a 2016 Hillary Clinton victory to ensure a burst of gun purchases.) And Remington wasn’t alone. Sales have been ragged across the industry. Gun company stocks have slipped, profits have fallen, price wars are breaking out, and corporate debt is on the rise. January 2018 was the worst January for gun purchases since 2012. (A mere 2,030,530 firearm background checks were logged that month, down by 500,000 from the same month in 2016!) It was the “Trump slump” in action.
The good old days for the gun makers — you know, the ones when a Kenyan Muslim was in the White House and a mass of Democratic congressional flamethrowers was preparing to shut the spigot on gun purchases in America forever with draconian laws — are long past. The National Rifle Association reigns; Republicans control Congress; Trump rules; gun control laws are something to be found in a galaxy far, far away; and all is safe, sound, and well in the world.
Or put another way, what’s often referred to as “fear-based” gun buying is no longer buoying the industry. One sign of this: in the past, mass shooting incidents (and the media brouhahas around them) were surefire gun-purchase inducers. Those background checks (a good measure of gun sales), for instance, rose 50% after Sandy Hook, 43% after the San Bernardino killings, and 40% after the Orlando Pulse nightclub massacre. But after last October’s Las Vegas slaughter in which 58 died and hundreds were wounded, they sank by 13% compared to October 2016. And even the recent Parkland school killings and the gun debate and youthful protests that followed didn’t seem to help sales (at least not until quite recently).
So, fear and guns. After President Obama was elected and the Democrats took Congress, gun production tripled in this country (and imports doubled), while, according to recent studies, white men who fit a certain profile — “anxious about their ability to protect their families, insecure about their place in the job market, and beset by racial fears” — stockpiled guns in record numbers. The gun, as one study reported, feels to them like “a force for order in a chaotic world,” though such owners are significantly more likely to use a gun in their home to kill or wound themselves or someone in their family than a burglar, intruder, or anyone else.
Think about a country filled with guns in numbers that should stagger the imagination, weapons that often have the power to rend flesh in ways that fit war, not the home. Then imagine the fears that have run rampart in this country in recent years and read the thoughts of TomDispatch regular Frida Berrigan, as a mother, as the child of famed pacifists who protested violence and weaponry of every sort, and as a relatively sane soul in a country deeply on edge with itself.

Gunning Down the Easter Bunny
The Weaponization of Everyday Life
By Frida Berrigan
Guns. In a country with more than 300 million of them, a country that’s recently been swept up in a round of protests over the endless killing sprees they permit, you’d think I might have had more experience with them.
As it happens, I’ve held a gun only once in my life. I even fired it. I was in perhaps tenth grade and enamored with an Eagle Scout who loved war reenactments. On weekends, he and his friends camped out, took off their watches to get into the spirit of the War of 1812, and dressed in homemade muslin underclothes and itchy uniforms. I was there just one weekend. Somehow my pacifist parents signed off on letting their daughter spend the day with war reenactors. Someone lent me a period gown, brown and itchy and ill-fitting. We women and girls spent an hour twisting black gunpowder into newspaper scraps. I joked that the newspaper was anachronistic — the previous week’s Baltimore Sun — but no one laughed.
A man came by with a long gun, an antique, resting on the shoulder of his jerkin to collect our “bullets” and he must have read the gun terror written on my face.
“Wanna give it a try?” he asked.
“Sure,” I said, stumbling to my feet, pushing my gown out of the way, and trying to act like I didn’t have broken-rifle patches, symbols of the pacifist War Resisters League, all over my real clothes. I felt a surge of adrenaline as I took the heavy weapon in my way-too-small hands. He showed me how to wrestle it into position, aim it, and fire. There were no bullets, just one of my twists of powder, but it made a terrifying noise. I shrieked and came close to dropping the weapon.
And there it was: the beginning, middle, and end of my love affair with guns — less than a minute long. Still, my hands seemed to tingle for the rest of the afternoon and the smell of gunpowder lingered in my hair for days.
Got Guns?
One in four Americans now owns a gun or lives in a household with guns. So how strange that, on that day in the late 1980s, I saw a real gun for the first and last time. I grew up in inner city Baltimore. I’ve worked at soup kitchens and homeless shelters all over the East Coast and stayed at dozens of Catholic Worker Houses around the country — Providence, Camden, Syracuse, Detroit, Chicago, Los Angeles — every one in a “tough” neighborhood. I lived in Red Hook, Brooklyn, in the mid-1990s, before you could get a $4 coffee or a zucchini scone on Van Brunt Street, before there was an Ikea or a Fairway in the neighborhood. All those tough communities, those places where President Trump imagines scenes of continual “American carnage,” and I’ve never again seen a gun.
Still, people obviously own them and use them in staggering numbers and in all sorts of destructive ways. Sensing that they’re widespread beyond my imagination, my husband and I have started asking the parents of our kids’ school friends if they own guns when we arrange play dates or sleepovers. We learned this from the father of a classmate of my 11-year-old stepdaughter Rosena. The dad called to make the arrangements for his son to come over after school. We talked logistics and food allergies and then he paused. “Now, I am sorry if this is intrusive,” he said, “but I do ask everyone: Do you keep guns in your house?” He sounded both uncomfortable and resolute.
I almost choked on my urge to say, “Don’t you know who I am?” In certain odd corners at least, my last name, Berrigan, is still synonymous with muscular pacifism and principled opposition to violence and weaponry of just about any kind, right up to the nuclear kind. But that dad probably didn’t even know my last name and it probably wouldn’t have meant a thing to him if he had. He just wanted to make sure his son was going to be safe and I was grateful that he asked — rather than just assuming, based on our Volvo-driving, thrift-shop-dressing, bumper-sticker-sporting lifestyle, that we didn’t.
“You know how kids are,” he said after I assured him that we were a gun-free household. “They’ll be into everything.”
And right he is. Kids are “into everything,” which is undoubtedly why so many of them end up with guns in their hands or bullets in their bodies.
“Do you question everyone about their guns?” I asked the dad. He replied that he did and, if they answered yes, then he’d ask whether those weapons were locked away, whether the ammunition was stored separately, and so on.
“Thank you so much. I think we need to start doing that too,” I said as our conversation was ending and indeed I have ever since.
It’s a subject worth raising, however awkward the conversation that follows may be, because two million kids in this country live in homes where guns are not stored safely and securely. So far this year, 59 kids have been hurt in gun accidents of one sort or another. On average, every 34 hours in our great nation a child is involved in an unintentional shooting incident, often with tragic consequences.
The National Rifle Association’s classic old argument, “guns don’t kill people, people kill people,” takes on a far harsher edge when you’re talking about a seven-year-old accidentally killing his nine-year-old brother with a gun they found while playing in an empty neighboring house in Arboles, Colorado.
Two weeks after we learn this new parenting life skill in this oh-so-new century of ours, my husband Patrick is on the phone with a mom arranging a sleepover for Rosena. I hear him fumble his way through the gun question. From his responses, I assume the mom is acknowledging that they do have guns. Then there’s the sort of long, awkward silence that seems part and parcel of such conversations before Patrick finally says, “Well, okay, thanks for being so honest. I appreciate that.”
He hangs up and looks at me. “They do keep guns for hunting and protection, but they’re locked up and out of sight,” he tells me. “The mom says that the kids have never tried to get at the guns, but she understands the dangers.” (He had heard in her voice apology, embarrassment, and worry that the guns might mean no sleepover.)
I grimaced in a way that said: I don’t think Rosena should go and he responded that he thought she should. The two of them then had a long conversation about what she should do and say if she sees a gun. She slept over and had a great time. A lesson in navigating difference, trusting our kid, and phew… no guns made an appearance. And we know more about our neighbors and our community.
Anything Can Be a Gun
My son Seamus, five, received an Easter basket from a family friend. He was happy about the candy of course and immediately smitten with the stuffed bunny, but he was over the moon about what he called his new “carrot gun.” It wasn’t a toy gun at all, but a little basket that popped out a light ball when you pressed a button.
The idea was that you’d catch the ball, put it back in, and do it again. But that wasn’t the game my kids played. They promptly began popping it at each other. His little sister Madeline, four, was in tattle mode almost immediately. “Mom, Seamus is shooting me with his carrot gun!”
“Mom, Mom, Mom,” he responded quickly, “it’s a pretend play gun, not a real play gun. It’s okay.” He made popping noises with his mouth and held his hand as if he were grasping a genuine forbidden toy gun. It was an important distinction for him. He’d been a full-throated participant in the March for Our Lives in Boston on March 24th, chanting with the rest of us “What do we want? Gun Control! When do we want it? NOW!” for four hours straight.
At the march, he pointed out that all the police officers managing traffic and the flow of people were wearing guns on their belts.
“I see a gun, Mom,” he kept saying, or “That police officer has a gun, Mom.”
Repeatedly, he noticed the means to kill — and then four days after that huge outpouring of youth-led activism for gun security, Stephon Clark was indeed gunned down in his grandmother’s backyard in Sacramento, California. The police officers who shot him were looking for someone who had been breaking car windows in the neighborhood and they fired 20 shots into the dark in his direction. The independent autopsy found that he had been hit eight times, mostly in his back. Clark turned out to be holding only a cellphone, though the police evidently mistook it for a tool bar, which could have done them no harm from that distance, even if he had wielded it as a weapon.
Maybe the police saw a weapon the same way my five-year-old son sees one. He can make a stick or just about anything else, including that little basket, into a “gun” and so evidently can the police. Police officers have killed black men and boys holding pipes, water hose nozzles, knives, and yes, toy guns, too.
Where Does the Violence Come From?
Parkland (17 killed, 14 wounded). Newtown (28 killed, 2 wounded). Columbine (15 killed, 21 injured). School shootings are now treated as a structural part of our lives. They have become a factor in school architecture, administrator training, city and state funding, and security plans. The expectation that something terrible will happen at school shapes the way that three- and four-year-olds are introduced to its culture. Part of their orientation now involves regular “shelter in place” and “secure-school” drills.
At my daughter’s pre-school, the kids are told that they’re hiding from rabid raccoons, those animals standing in for marauding, disaffected white boys or men roaming the halls armed. As parents, we need to do more than blindly accept that these traumatic exercises are preparing our kids for the worst and helping them survive. Kids are vulnerable little beings and there are countless dangers out there, but they have a one-in-600-million chance of dying in a school shooting. We endanger them so much more by texting while driving them home from school.
After every episode of violence at a school — or in the adult world at a church, night club, concert, movie theater, or workplace like San Bernardino’s Inland Regional Center or the YouTube headquarters — there’s always a huge chorus of “why?” Pundits look at the shooter’s history, his (it’s almost always a guy) trauma, and whatever might be known about his mental health. They speculate on his (or, in the rare case of those YouTube shootings, her) political leanings, racial hatreds, and ethnic background. The search for whys can lead to hand wringing about hard-driving rock music or nihilistic video games or endemic bullying — all of which could indeed be factors in the drive to kill significant numbers of unsuspecting people — but never go far enough or deep enough.
Two questions are answered far too infrequently: Where do the guns come from? Where does violence come from?
Guns of all sizes and description are manufactured and sold in this country in remarkable numbers, far more than can be legally absorbed in our already gun-saturated land, so thousands of them move instead into the gray and black markets. Evidence of this trend shows up repeatedly in Mexico, where 70% of the weapons seized in crimes between 2009 and 2014 turned out to be made in El Norte. We have an estimated 300 million guns in this country, making us first by far in the world in gun ownership and some of them couldn’t conceivably be used for “hunting.” They are military-style weapons meant to tear human flesh and nothing but that — like the AR-15 that 19-year-old Nikolas Cruz legally bought and used in his grim Parkland shooting spree.
This country, in other words, is a cornucopia of guns, which — honestly, folks — doesn’t have a damn thing to do with the Second Amendment.
Where does the violence come from? I’ve already shared my inexperience with guns. Now, let me add to it my inexperience with violence. I don’t know what it’s like to have to react in a split second to or flee an advancing perpetrator. No one has ever come at me with a gun or a knife or a pipe, or anything else for that matter. And I count myself lucky for that. In a nation in which, in 2016 alone, 14,925 people were killed due to gun violence and another 22,938 used a gun to kill themselves, it’s a significant thing to be able to say.
And yet, I know that I’m the product of violence (as well as the urge, in my own family, to protest and stop it): the violence of white privilege, the violence of American colonialism, the violence of American superpowerdom on a global scale… and that’s no small thing. It’s a lot easier to blame active-shooter scenarios on poor mental-health screening than on growing up in a world layered with the threat of pervasive violence.
Power is about never having to say you’re sorry, never being held accountable. And that’s hardly just a matter of police officers shooting black men and boys; it’s about the way in which this country is insulated from international opprobrium by its trillion-dollar national security state, a military that doesn’t hesitate to divide the whole world into seven U.S. “commands,” and a massive, planet-obliterating nuclear arsenal.
And don’t think that any of that’s just a reflection of Trumpian bombast and brutality either. That same sense of never having to say you’re sorry at a global level undergirded Barack Obama’s urbane dispassion, George Bush Junior’s silver spoon cluelessness, Bill Clinton’s folksy accessibility, George Bush Senior’s patrician poshness, Ronald Reagan’s aura of Hollywood charm, and Jimmy Carter’s southern version of the same. We’re talking about weapons systems designed to rain down a magnitude of terror unimaginable to the Nikolas Cruzes, Dylann Roofs, and Adam Lanzas of the world.
And it doesn’t even make us safe! All that money, all that knowledge, all that power put into the designing and displaying of weapons of mass destruction and we remain remarkably vulnerable as a nation. After all, in schools, homes, offices, neighborhoods across the country, we are being killed by our kids, our friends, our lovers, our police officers, our crumbling roads and bridges, our derailing trains. And then, of course, there are all those guns. Guns meant to destroy. Guns beyond counting.
So what might actually make us safer? After all, people theoretically buy the kind of firepower you might otherwise use only in war and pledge allegiance to the U.S. war machine in search of some chimera of safety. And yet, despite that classic NRA line — “The only way to stop a bad guy with a gun is with a good guy with a gun” — are we truly safer in a nation awash in such weaponry with so many scrambling in a state of incipient panic to buy yet more? Are my kids truly on the way to a better life as they practice cowering in their cubbies in darkened classrooms for fear of invading rabid “raccoons”?
Don’t you think that true security lies not in our arming ourselves to the teeth against other people — that is, in our disconnection from them — but in our connection to them, to the web of mutuality that has bound societies, small and large, for millennia? Don’t you think that we would be more secure and so much less terrified if we found ways to acknowledge and share our relative abundance to meet the needs of others? In a world awash in guns and fears, doesn’t our security have to involve trust and courage and always be (at best) a work in progress?
As for me, I’m tackling that work in progress in whatever ways I can — with my neighbors, my town, my husband, and most of all my children, educating them in the ways violence scars and all those weapons just increase our journey into hell, never delivering the security they promise.

Illinois Wage Earners In For A Shock!
In case you’ve missed it, the US Congress has passed a measure to partially avoid the ‘Fiscal Cliff’ and sent a bill to the President and all signs point to his signing it. One measure in the bill is the planned phase-out of the “Social Security Tax Break’.
Back in 2010, Congress passed the Social Security Tax Break that brought the employer portion of Social Security down to 4.2% of earnings from 6.2%. (The employer portion stayed at 6.2% for the duration.) The tax break was only meant to be for two years and was set to expire as of December 31, 2012.
The Congressional agreement did not reinstate the Social Security Tax Break so wage earners and the self-employed will go back to the 6.2% rate (paying in more to Social Security) starting January 1, 2013. Wage earners and the self-employed pay into Social Security for the first $113,700 of wages or self-employment earnings. The increase in withholding means a lower paycheck.
In Illinois (where I practice), the social security tax break was barely noticed by most people because the State of Illinois raised the personal tax rate on January 1, 2011 to 5% from 3%. I wrote at that time it was interesting that Illinois would raise rates by the same percentage that the Federal Government gave a break on. So, for the last two years, Illinois wage earners and the self-employed received no net benefit from the Social Security Tax Break. Now, we will have to deal with a ‘tax increase’ of 2% and it will come as a shock to a lot of people. There are plans to reduce the Illinois personal tax rate over the next few years, but considering the dire financial straights Illinois is in, I’m not banking on it.
How much is the increase in withholding? Basically, think of it as $500 for every $25,000 you earn. So, if you make $50k a year, that’s $1000 more in withholding; if you make $75k, then it is $1500 and at $100k, that is $2000. If you earn $113,700 or more, the additional amount paid into social security is $2274.
If you don’t pay into social security (a lot of government employees do not, and the same with some teachers/educators, retirees, etc.) you shouldn’t see any increase in withholding.
Get ready, my friends in Illinois – your paychecks are about to go down and you can honestly blame Illinois, not the federal government.

Category: Top 10 BUSTED
Not Top 10 Busts
Prior to the 2021-22 season, the NBA announced it 75th Anniversary Team to honor the greatest 75 players in league history. In anticipation of that moment, my son and I developed an algorithm to create our own list of all-time greats. The NBA relied on a panel of “expert” voters who likely utilized the “eye test” while this site relied purely on objective measures such as stats, awards, and titles. There was significant overlap in the names on both lists, but this post provides a ranking to make the debate that much more interesting. Who’s the GOAT? Who got snubbed? Who didn’t quite deserve the honor? It’s all in here. Read and enjoy.
T10B Busted: Mike Clevinger
After an away game in July 2020, Cleveland pitchers Zach Plesac and Mike Clevinger went out to dinner with a small group of friends. Their outing ordinarily would seem quite tame for professional athletes. However, in the Year of COVID, their actions violated team rules and MLB protocol. The Indians sent Plesac home by car after he fessed up to the violation. On the other hand, Clevinger boarded the team plane without letting anyone know that he may have been exposed to the deadly virus. Several weeks later, the club traded Clevinger to the San Diego Padres. Were the two events related? I think so, but at least one person disagrees.
NOT TOP10 BUST: HANK HANEY
Political correctness regarding the LPGA officially has jumped the shark. Earlier this week, Hank Haney mockingly predicted that a Korean with the last name of Lee would win the U.S. Women’s Open. To be honest, the only reason we know of Haney is because he served as the swing coach for six out of Tiger Woods’ fifteen majors. Largely based on this historical relationship, Haney has a show on SiriusXM PGA Tour Radio. Due to the negative reaction to his arguably racist and sexist remarks, the station suspended him and preempted his show. I argue that Haney’s comments were neither racist nor sexist, but rather stereotypically accurate.
Top 10 Busts (Other)
Top 10 Busted: The Match (Tiger vs. Phil)
Synopsis: In full disclosure, I didn’t watch “The Match” between Tiger Woods and Phil Mickelson over Thanksgiving Weekend 2018. It wasn’t because I didn’t want to though. After having difficulty ordering the made-for-TV event, I decided that getting a Christmas tree with my family would be a much better use of time. I certainly made the right call based on its scathing reviews. Still, I bet there will be a rematch based on the close competition that ended after Lefty sunk a 4′ birdie putt on the 22nd hole. The following post focuses more on my failed experiences with pay-per-view TV, but ends with the conclusion that “The Match” deserves Top 10 Bust status for various reasons.
T10B Busted Nominee: Dianne Feinstein
Like millions of others, I watched the Senate Judiciary Committee hearing during which Christine Blasey Ford detailed her sexual assault allegation against Supreme Court hopeful Brett Kavanaugh. In case you missed the made-for-TV special, the words of Groucho Marx provide the best summary. Specifically, it was “a travesty of a mockery of a sham.” Senator Dianne Feinstein (D-CA) earns a “T10B Busted” Nomination for promoting the un-American notion of presumed guilt. Fellow Senators Dick Blumenthal (D-CT) and Cory Booker (D-NJ) deserve honorable mentions for their hypocritical roles in the spectacle. Overall, Feinstein edges out the other two because she led the effort to use an alleged victim as a political pawn.
T10B Busted Nominee: Serena Williams
Based on the overwhelming fan support Serena Williams received during the 2018 U.S. Open, this post will not be well liked. I certainly cannot deny Serena’s dominance of women’s tennis over the last 20 years. Of note, she impressively has won almost 30% of all Grand Slams contested since her first title at the 1999 U.S. Open. At the same time, an objective observer cannot deny that the younger Williams sister has a bad temper. She has proven to be an accomplished athlete who serves as an inspiration to many. Still, I have nominated her as a T10B Busted nominee because of the excuses she has given to defend her lack of decorum on the court.
T10B Not Busted: Urban Meyer
After a two-week investigation into Urban Meyer’s handling of domestic violence allegations against former Assistant Coach Zach Smith, THE Ohio State University announced a 3-game suspension for its head football coach. Meyer’s actions (or inactions) apparently didn’t elevate to a fireable offense. At the same time, OSU President Michael Drake believed the head coach deserved to be punished. Following an 11-hour closed-door meeting during which the Board of Trustees decided his fate, Meyer spoke to the press. He certainly missed the mark by failing to show remorse or offer a sincere apology. In response, numerous ESPN “reporters” argued that Meyer deserved to be fired. When will the network learn that its role is reporting and not creating news.

TOP 10 MLB BUSTS
T10B Busted: WAR (Wins Above Replacement)
Sabermetics has taken over how baseball teams are constructed, how games are managed, and how players are evaluated. Whereas stats like HRs, RBIs and BA used to delineate players, MLB general managers now seem to be obsessed with stats like OBP, OPS, and WAR. I fully appreciate the importance of statistics when evaluating players, but I question the current over-reliance on them. In this post, I hope to discount the importance of wins above replacement (WAR) when evaluating greatness.
Top 10 Busted: Jackie Robinson West
Many of us were inspired by the success of Chicago’s Jackie Robinson West at the 2014 Little League World Series. Unfortunately, our inspiration turned to disappointment upon hearing that the team cheated. I had originally written and posted this article back in 2015, but pulled it down upon hearing that Stephen A. Smith had been sued for speaking on the topic. Now that ESPN’s most loquacious blowhard has been dropped from the case, I’ll take advantage of the same Constitutional protection to free speech. America, what a country!
Assuming all of the allegations against him are true, Harvey Weinstein may be one of the worst sexual predators in the history of Tinseltown. Well, he’s certainly the worst to be exposed since Bill Cosby went from being a lovable sitcom dad to a scary real-life rapist. Hopefully, there’ll be an end to such despicable actions by men in power now that more women seem willing to come forward. At the same time, I can’t help but marvel at the hypocrisy of the Hollywood elite which protected these criminals for far too long.

[00:00:00] Torie: It’s just something that happens and like that’s not a meal, unfortunately. It wasn’t how we thought. So what are we going to do now? Like what else could we do?
Hey, Hey, welcome to Smart AF I’m your host Torie Mathis. We’ve got a great show for you today. So let’s get started. Man so ever since this COVID crap has been happening. Facebook is a nightmare. And I’m not talking about the Facebook that everybody knows. I like the backend, the Facebook ads. I think that it, it has led to, because I’m in Facebook groups with a lot of other advertisers and like everybody’s ads are getting turned off.
Accounts are getting flagged for weird ass shit and. It like the first time it happened, it was off for like, on some of my ad accounts was off for like two weeks. And no matter what I did, these ads would not turn back on. I contacted Facebook, I talked to my rep and they wouldn’t turn on.
[00:01:10] Sean: Algorithm just going through buzzard, right?
[00:01:12] Torie: It is. Was like, yeah, it was for, at lately it’s like political like you’re doing political ads when obviously like we’re not doing political ads. So it’s like these weird, random glitches that work themselves out. Like all of them have worked themselves out. They’ve taken a little while. Each one has taken a little bit different time.
And once I noticed that it wasn’t me, cause I’m always like, oh my God, what did I do? But like, it wasn’t anything
[00:01:36] Sean: that I had been up for a year and a half, all of a sudden gets flagged my
[00:01:41] Torie: ad. That’s been doing so fantastic that I’ve nurtured and created this like wonderful like asset has, you know?
Yeah. So I thought I did something. I’m surprised. I didn’t give myself an ulcer. Like I was. So I was like doing like all the normal things that you would do if something happens, like duplicating the ad and you know, redoing it and make small changes and like everything, like nothing would work, man. And you know what, it, it all worked itself out.
But I, I was so like, the flexibility was like not in there at all. And I actually had a launch just a few weeks ago, like a big launch with a client and the exact same thing happened. And for three days of like a seven day launch, there were no ads. I could not get an ad up. I’m like, Facebook just doesn’t want to take the money. Like I don’t, I don’t understand, but you know what, you, you can’t put all your eggs in the same basket. You can’t have. Everything relies on one source. You can’t, what are they telling you? You can’t throw the baby out with the bathwater. Yes. John, that is safe. Like you can’t. I know somebody must’ve done that, who would do that?
That is kind of weird, but like, you can’t just like throw the whole business away because something happened it’s shit is always going to happen. Whether it’s Facebook ads or if there’s always going to be something that’s going on, freaking out doesn’t work. Let me tell you, giving yourself an ulcer doesn’t work.
Like it just doesn’t. And it had me thinking about like, I keep seeing these people that are. The children today are going to be so traumatized because they’re not at school or they’ve had a couple months off and they had to do online learning or because I can’t go trick or treating like you’re going to give your kids ulcers.
[00:03:31] Sean: They’re not going to come up with that conclusion themselves. They’re hearing it from somebody
[00:03:35] Torie: like I’ve really, really tried not to, not to say to the kids that like, there’s something wrong and, and you’re missing out like, okay, Riley missed sixth grade graduation. He didn’t get to, say goodbye to his teachers.
I guess they got to do some final walk thingy. I didn’t even say anything to him because if I made it a big deal, then it would have been a big deal.
[00:03:56] Sean: I have been all kinds of upset. Not maybe not for no reason, but nothing we could do about it. So why, why would we put them through.
[00:04:04] Torie: Like, it’s just something that happens. And like, that’s not me, unfortunately. It wasn’t how we thought. So what are we going to do now? Like what else could we do? Like trying to just keep the kids flexible. Like, so what they can’t, you know, maybe your neighborhood isn’t trick or treating, I don’t know what your neighbors like, we’re going to trick or treat anyway.
Like some of our neighbors are like, we’re all for it. But even if they couldn’t like, it’s not going to traumatize. Just like the Facebook ads going off like it’s not going to ruin the business. It’s not going to happen. Shit happens you guys. It really does. And it happens all the time. You can’t give yourself.
Can you give your kids an ulcer for which one?
[00:04:47] Sean: Facebook ads.
[00:04:48] Torie: So the first time it happened like I literally freaked out. Like I was, so I was going crazy. And it w it took a little while, but it worked itself out, but I still thought that it was something I did. Like, I thought I did something and then I saw other people were saying, Hey, all my ads turned off and it said this, and I don’t know what that means.
Wow, that happened to me too. And so I started seeing that it was happening to other people. So now when it happened in the big launch, I came, I was obviously, I was disappointed, but I knew it was going to work itself out. And so I went into the Facebook group. I said, what had happened? I have a Facebook group that’s really active about Facebook ads.
And like, I could find out anything in there and right away, somebody said, you know, that had happened to me. And then once I said it, other people were like, oh, that’s happening to me. Oh, that’s happening to me. So I was updating them on what was going on with me. This particular one took three days. And it finally just out of nowhere, everything turned back on and making any adjustments, no adjustments, like nothing that I did worked.
And just letting it sit there like nothing actually happened. I went through all the like regular things, like. What’s the process that I need to do. So, you know, is there a video on there that is kind of glitchy? Is there a link that might be broken or that, you know, Facebook doesn’t like, because you’re saying something like political right now is like a really big one?
If you’re trying to do get rich quick, that’s always like something. And sometimes things do get flagged, but usually like, you’re like, what the heck would that be? Like, I didn’t do anything that would be. That we would call this flag or like the first time it happened like these were ads that I had, I had worked these ads and I’d ran these ads for a long time.
And I just, I had them to like a really sweet point that I knew that I didn’t change something that did. But I was able to be there for all these other people now. And they’re like, don’t worry, like this happened to me. It’s okay. What can you do? You know, make the changes if you want. But otherwise, like a couple of days, they’ll come back on and everybody’s like, they get back on.
They came back on, they came back on, and also just like the kids like shit happens. Like, what are we gonna do now? Like it’s okay. We don’t trick or treat, what can we do? What will be fun? Like maybe we’ll think of something that’ll now be like the new thing we do. And it’ll be cool. Like shit happens. It’s okay.
[00:06:57] Sean: Especially when it’s out of your control and that’s the thing.
[00:07:00] Torie: I thought it was me. And then realizing that I am putting so much of my, I don’t want to say like my business, but like so much faith in this thing. I have no control over it. You’re always going to be let down if you do that. So whether it’s your ads or it’s a part of your business, or maybe you have way too much involved in one employee.
Like if that one employee gets sick like you can’t be like, oh my God, I’m screwed. Like you set yourself up for failure. You got to be flexible and not have so much faith in that one thing that you have no control over. And in this case for me, I mean, it was Facebook ads. I have no control over Facebook.
Especially how glitchy it’s been. Drive me crazy. Everything drives me crazy. I’m changing the name of this show. This is called what drives Torie crazy.

Arbitrary Interest-rate Caps Hurt Most Vulnerable Consumers
Colin Hanna | Nov 28, 2019
Biden Says He’s ‘Really Not Irish’ Because He’s Sober and Doesn't Have Relatives 'in Jail' Madeline Leesman
One thing you can always count on is politicians trying to address a perceived issue with a heavy-handed big government “solution.” Rather than looking at ways to expand consumer financial services to those who need it most, some on Capitol Hill are now trying to score political points at the expense of those living paycheck to paycheck. In other words, the intended beneficiaries of the proposed legislation will instead be its unintended victims.
Rep. Glenn Grothman (R-Wis.) and Rep. Jesus Garcia (D-Ill.) recently introduced legislation that would institute a 36-percent-interest-rate cap on various types of payday loans. The bill titled the “Veterans and Consumers Fair Credit Act” would mandate that the 36-percent-interest-rate cap applies to all consumers, not just active-duty military personnel and their families as the “Military Lending Act” requires.
The bill, however, fails to consider that arbitrary interest-rate caps oftentimes hurt, as studies show, the most at-risk veterans and consumers who struggle to get approved for short-term loans because they have a less-than-stellar credit score.
“Researchers, journalists, and policymakers routinely demonize the businesses that provide payday loans, calling them predatory or worse,” says Lisa J. Servon, a professor and former dean at the Milano School of International Affairs, Management and Urban Policy at the New School.
“Indeed, if you are not living close to the edge, it’s hard to understand why a person would pay such a high price to borrow such a small amount of money.” On the other hand, if you are living close to the edge, you understand it very well.
The truth is that small-dollar loans with varying interest rates help buy time for those with bad credit who’ve been turned away by larger consumer lenders for prime loans. As Servon says, “[M]ainstream financial services have all but abandoned low- and moderate-income groups.”
Americans, it turns out, have a more difficult time securing credit than one might guess. Some consumers are completely unable to access traditional credit markets while a separate group of consumers, though they can get approved for some credit, still struggle to cover their expenses.
“When credit-constraining outcomes of those in the formal credit economy are explicitly taken into account, it is as if a total of 23.8%, or about 60.4 million U.S. adults, lack access to credit at choice,” reads a report from the New York Federal Reserve.
Moreover, government researchers in a 2017 study of soldiers and their relationship with payday lenders discovered that many of the negative stereotypes surrounding small-dollar lenders simply aren’t supported by the facts.
The study instead reveals the opposite—that, for enlisted men and women without a high-school diploma, “payday loan access reduces the likelihood of separating [from the Army] voluntarily by 2 percentage points.”
Furthermore, researchers found that payday loans—even when available to more at-risk groups of enlisted Army personnel—benefitted soldiers and helped them out of difficult financial situations.
“Taken together, these estimates suggest that payday loan access actually reduces adverse labor market outcomes for soldiers, both on average and in several subgroups of potential interest. We see no evidence of adverse effects of access to payday loans.”
It follows, then, that tightening the rules on payday lenders will only serve to limit consumer choice for the millions of Americans who have no other way of making ends meet one paycheck to the next.
Azlinah Tambu, a then-22-year-old single mother, years ago borrowed from five different small-dollar lenders so she could afford a repair on her car, which she needed to drop her daughter off at daycare and get to and from her job.
“I knew what a payday loan was,” she tells the New Yorker. “But I’m on a month-to-month lease, and it was either get evicted or take out the loans,” she said. “The reason I’m working so hard to pay these loans back is that I want to be in good standing, in case I ever need another one.”
When payday lenders are a person’s last resort, it’s bad policy to regulate small-dollar lenders out of business and force people who desperately need money into unregulated, off-the-book options. Rather than legislating restrictions on accessing credit by those with poor ratings, Congress should be looking at ways to expand credit offers to them by allowing more lenders to compete for their business.
House Financial Services Committee Chairwoman Rep. Maxine Waters, instead of pushing her anti-consumer leftwing regulation agenda, should acknowledge the important role small-dollar lending has on Americans’ bottom line.

What Does Medtronic Do and How Do They Make Money
Medtronic (MDT) is a billion-dollar, global leader in medical technology, offering medical devices and therapies to more than 72 million people across 150+ countries. Medtronic—derived from combining terms medical electronics—was formed in a Minneapolis garage by Earl Bakken, who later created the battery-powered pacemaker, and accomplished engineer Palmer Hermundslie. As of 2021, Medtronic has a footprint extending far beyond its Fridley, Minnesota operational headquarters, with locations in Europe, Asia, Australia, Africa, and Latin America.
Boasting more than US$30.1 billion in revenues for 2021, Medtronic offers products that are aligned to its strategy: innovating meaningful therapies, resolving inequities in healthcare access, and delivering value-based healthcare. Medtronic’s four major reporting segments are cardiac and vascular, minimally invasive therapies, restorative therapies, and diabetes. Let’s look at each to see how the company makes money.
Medtronic (MDT) is a medical device company that generates more than $28 billion in revenues from four business segments: cardiac and vascular, minimally invasive therapies, restorative therapies, and diabetes.
The cardiac and vascular segment is the largest, generating more than $11 billion in revenues, and makes devices like pacemakers and defibrillators.
Medtronic is a world leader in the area of implants and bone grafts.
In 2014, to minimize tax liabilities, Medtronic officially relocated its headquarters to Dublin, Ireland—a controversial corporate practice called corporate inversion.
Medtronic’s Financials
For the quarter ending January 29, 2021 (FY21 Q3), Medtronic reported net sales of $7.76 billion and a net income of $1.27 billion, a respective increase of $128 million and $785 million from the previous quarter ending October 30, 2020 (FY21 Q2).
Despite noting that the COVID-19 pandemic adversely affected business, its net sales for FY21 Q3 were slightly higher (.7%) than the net sales for the same quarter of the previous year. While net sales in the minimally invasive therapies and diabetes segments increased over the quarter, revenues in the restorative therapies cardiac and vascular segments decreased by $5.9% and 0.8%, respectively. The company noted that these decelerations might be attributed to a decrease in medical procedures in areas that experienced second waves of COVID-19.
Cardiac and Vascular Segment
Medtronic’s cardiac and vascular unit accounted for $10.47 billion of revenue and $3.72 billion of operating income for 2020, down from $11.5 billion in 2019 and $4.53 billion, respectively. This segment makes, among many other devices, pacemakers and defibrillators. This segment is divided further into subgroups that manage the following types of diseases: cardiac rhythm and heart failure, coronary and structural heart, and aortic and peripheral vascular.
A traditional pacemaker costs between $2,500 and $5,000, while a defibrillator can run between $1,275 and $2,875. Almost always, an insurer or medical provider pays the bill.
Another heart product in the Medtronic line is the cryoballoon, which freezes heart tissue that’s responsible for irregular beats. Such devices are prohibitively expensive for personal use, although it’s highly unlikely that a patient with an irregular heartbeat would be administering their own cryoballoon anyway. Instead, the devices are sold to hospitals, enabling thousands of patients to be treated.
Medtronic makes other devices that would have been the stuff of science fiction to the eyes of the company’s nineteenth-century founders. This includes cardiac monitors inserted into the body that records electrical activity during fainting spells and palpitations, as well as surgical replacements for diseased heart valves. It’s easy to forget that modern medicine is as amazing as space travel.
Minimally Invasive Therapies Segment
Medtronic’s minimally invasive therapies division accounted for $8.35 billion of revenue in 2020 and $3.04 billion of operating income, down from $8.47 billion and $3.26 billion in 2019, respectively. This division has two subdivisions. The first covers vital items that seem less revolutionary than pacemakers and defibrillators—products like staples and mesh and bronchoscopes, which are flexible contraptions that go up through a nostril to afford an examination of the lungs.
The second is the patient monitoring and recovery division, which develops ventilators and resuscitation bags, also falls under the corporation’s minimally invasive therapies unit. Finally, Curity—a maker of gauze, bandages, and sponges—is also a Medtronic brand and within this segment.
Restorative Therapies Segment
Restorative therapies is an unheralded division that took in $7.73 billion in revenue and recorded $2.92 billion in operating income in 2020—down from a respective $8.18 billion and $3.32 billion in 2019—making it Medtronic’s third-largest unit. Its subdivisions include neurovascular, surgery, spine, and neuromodulation. Given that minimally invasive types are accounted for elsewhere, the therapies in this division range from moderately to maximally invasive.
Products include interbody spacers, about which the American Academy of Orthopedic Surgeons says, ”Your surgeon gains access to your spine by removing the bone and retracting the nerves. Then the back of the disk can be removed and a spacer inserted.” Sounds as easy as an oil change.
Medtronic also makes implants for different pieces of the spine, the cervical region requiring more care than the thorax and the lower part of the back.
Bone grafts for degenerative disc disease are a functional lifesaver—a medical necessity. No one thinks of them as a commodity or a brand-name product, but indeed they are, as Medtronic is among the world leaders in the market. For the record, Medtronic’s most popular bone graft includes the proprietary use of a protein that stimulates growth in certain parts of the spine, jaw, and face.
The other branches of the company’s restorative therapy business include deep brain stimulation, which is a developmental means of fighting the progress of Alzheimer’s disease. It’s a breakthrough that’s already been adopted in much of the world, but which, ironically, has been slowed by the bog of regulatory approval in the U.S., although the FDA graciously offers what’s called a humanitarian device exemption for deep brain stimulation, upon certain conditions. Other space-age breakthroughs under the restorative therapies umbrella include blades for tissue dissection and coils administered to treat diseases.
Diabetes Segment
Lastly, there’s Medtronic’s diabetes group, which generated $2.37 billion in revenue for 2020, a slight decrease from the $2.39 billion recorded for 2019. However, the decrease in its operating income was not so slight, falling from $739 million in 2019 to $546 million in 2020. Spurred by the spread of one of the world’s fastest-growing diseases, Medtronic is betting big on helping to manage diabetes and has become known for its insulin pump that continually monitors the levels of glucose in a patient’s blood.
The number of adults in the U.S. with diabetes, or roughly 10% of the population, in 2018, according to the CDC’s Division of Diabetes Translation.
A generation ago, the average diabetics injected themselves with a hypodermic needle and could only hope that the insulin would do its job—let alone track and save data. Today, a tiny integrated system not only administers insulin but suspends its delivery when glucose levels stabilize. The system costs a few hundred dollars, but for conscientious diabetics, that’s a bargain. However, known as the MiniMed 630G, the system is almost primitive when compared to professional-grade cousins that capture real-time data in a physician’s office.
Medtronic’s Recent Developments
Medtronic continues to expand its portfolio with new medical therapies and devices to those who need them. In 2020, Medtronic acquired London-based Digital Surgery for an undisclosed amount to enhance its robotic-assisted surgery business. This platform joined the Surgical Robotics sector of the Minimally Invasive Group Therapies segment.
The percent of surgeries done robotically around the world.
Also, to advance research and development in diabetes solutions and therapies, Medtronic received over $337 million in funding from Blackstone Life Sciences, a Blackstone Group company. The funds will be allocated to four diabetes programs at Medtronic over several years.
Overseas Tax Advantages
Facing a 10-digit tax liability if Medtronic remained based in Minnesota, the company relocated its legal headquarters to Dublin in 2014 after it bought Irish medical devices company Covidien. After the acquisition, Medtronic became Medtronic plc, splitting its headquarters into two, with the operational side remaining in Minnesota and its legal side registered in Dublin, Ireland.
Ostensibly, the move was the inevitable result of purchasing, but it also allowed Medtronic to take advantage of friendlier tax laws, a practice known as corporate inversion, which many multinational firms choose to exploit.
Such maneuvering of headquarters to keep profits outside the U.S. to avoid taxes has ignited lots of recent debate in Congress over the country’s corporate tax code—and it played a big role in the 2016 election. Consequently, by becoming an Irish firm, Medtronic can now put far more of its cash flow to work—an extra quarter of every dollar.

Guardianship v. Attorney-in-Fact in DC
Being appointed someone’s guardian and/or their attorney-in-fact is a huge responsibility in DC. In both cases, a person likely doesn’t have the capacity to make their own decisions and thus needs someone looking out for their well-being. Someone who is interested in becoming an individual’s guardian should speak with a DC guardianship lawyer to discuss how they should proceed.
What is a Guardian
A guardian or conservator is somebody who is appointed through court intervention in instances where there is no less restrictive means of intervention to assist someone in making financial, legal, or healthcare decisions for an adult lacking capacity to do so. The process of guardianship or conservatorship requires continued court supervision. Often, it occurs after somebody has already lost the capacity to make his or her own decisions.
Responsibilities of a Guardian
Generally, a DC guardian’s duties involve providing for the basic needs and healthcare of a ward. The guardian visits the ward at least once a month to ensure that the ward is cared for; that their clothes, food and necessities are provided for, and the ward is in a safe living environment. The guardian may also make other healthcare decisions on behalf of the ward.
A conservator’s duties include managing the ward’s assets for the ward’s benefit, such as paying the ward’s bills or coming up with a plan to pay the ward’s bills, paying for the general care or maintenance of the ward, filing the required court reports, and filing any income tax returns on behalf of the ward. If the ward’s assets begin to deplete, a conservator can apply for the necessary public benefits that may help the ward continue to have assets available.
Purpose of Court Supervision
The purpose of court supervision in DC is to monitor both the conservator and the guardian. Even though a guardian is tasked with providing for their ward, the court continues to monitor the status, healthcare, and living situation of the ward in a guardianship case. The court will monitor all of the income and expenses for the ward’s finances by reviewing an annual accounting.
What is an Attorney-in-Fact
An attorney-in-fact or a healthcare agent is nominated in a power of attorney, advanced medical directive or medical power of attorney by an individual when they still have the capacity to nominate someone to act on their behalf. Often, powers of attorney, medical directives or medical powers of attorney do not require continued court supervision; this is one of the biggest differences between a guardian and an attorney-in-fact. In addition, often merely having a power of attorney or medical power of attorney prevents the need for the initiation of a guardianship or conservatorship proceeding. Designation of a power of attorney or health care agent during capacity is often preferred by clients because the documents allow them to plan for the future rather than be subject to court intervention. Preparing a power of attorney or medical power of attorney can often be more cost effective than a guardianship procedure, and a better method for ensuring that your wishes are met if you begin to lose capacity.

Pulitzer Prize-winning author Colson Whitehead headlines OSU-Tulsa’s Writers on Greenwood
Published: Monday, November 7, 2022
EDIT: This event has been rescheduled for Dec. 7, 2022 at 7 p.m. at the OSU-Tulsa auditorium. Tickets are still available for $31 and all tickets purchased for the previous date will be honored.
This story was originally posted on Sept. 29 and updated on Nov. 7, 2022.
Widely celebrated American novelist Colson Whitehead is set to perform a reading and book signing at the sixth annual Writers on Greenwood event at OSU-Tulsa Auditorium beginning at 7 p.m. on Oct. 25, 2022.
Whitehead will be reading from his latest work, “Harlem Shuffle,” followed by a discussion of how his genre-spanning work challenges the perceptions of history and truth in America, including notions about race, class and gender.
“We at OSU are thrilled to welcome Colson Whitehead for this year’s Writers on Greenwood event,” said Lindsey Smith, director of the Center for Poets and Writers at OSU-Tulsa. “Mr. Whitehead is one of the most accomplished writers and educators of our time, and his visit will be a one-of-a-kind opportunity to learn more about his approach to writing and his treatment of fascinating subjects from American history and culture.”
Whitehead is the author of eight novels including “The Intuitionist,” “The Underground Railroad” and “The Nickel Boys.” “The Underground Railroad” was awarded National Book Award for Fiction in 2016, the Pulitzer Prize for Fiction in 2017, and has been adapted into a TV miniseries on Amazon Prime Video with the same name, which released in 2021. Whitehead won the Pulitzer Prize for Fiction again in 2020 for “The Nickel Boys.”
Tickets for the event can be found online for a price of $31.
The Writers on Greenwood series, hosted annually by the Center for Poets and Writers at OSU-Tulsa, adds to the cultural life of Tulsa in service to the outreach mission of OSU, engaging voices from the community and striving for greater inclusivity in the literary arts. The series celebrates BIPOC writers in Tulsa’s Greenwood district, historically known as Black Wall Street.

COVID-19 Texas News for Lobbyists
Texas Hospital Capacity
On Tuesday, June 16th, Governor Greg Abbott held a press conference to update Texans on the State’s coronavirus response and hospital capacity. Although there has been an uptick in cases, the Governor offered reassurances that Texas continues to maintain abundant hospital capacity.
“As we begin to open up Texas and Texans returns to their jobs, we remain laser-focused on maintaining abundant hospital capacity,” said Governor Abbott. He added that “the best way to contain the spread of this virus is by all Texans working together and following simple safety precautions. We all have a responsibility for our own health and for the health of our loved ones, friends, and neighbors. COVID-19 still exists in Texas, and if we are to contain the spread while getting Texans back to work, all Texans must do their part. That means making safe and smart decisions like wearing a mask, washing your hands, and socially distancing in public. The more Texans protect their own health, the safer our state will be and the more we will be able to open up for business.”
Following the Governor’s remarks, Doctor John Zerwas presented an in-depth update on hospital capacity in Texas. Doctor Zerwas’ presentation can be viewed here.
Local Mask Requirements
This week, several local leaders issued mandates on businesses to require face masks. Bexar and Hidalgo Counties led the way followed by the City of Austin. Austin’s ordinance mirrors Bexar County’s and will take effect June 22nd and run through August 15th. Businesses, not individuals, can be fined up to $1,000 for non-compliance.
Governor Abbott commented on these local ordinances with the following remarks: “Local governments can require stores and business to require masks. That’s what was authorized in my plan.” He added that “businesses … they’ve always had the opportunity and the ability, just like they can require people to wear shoes and shirts, these businesses can require people to wear face masks if they come into their businesses. Now local officials are just now realizing that that was authorized.”
Dallas and Harris Counties are expected to follow with similar mandates.
Paycheck Protection Program Flexibility Act Signed into Law
Congress passed the Paycheck Protection Program Flexibility Act of 2020 and President Donald Trump signed the Act into law on June 5th. The Act provides significant changes to key provisions of the Paycheck Protection Program (PPP) utilized by many business operators across the nation. The key changes in the Act include the following:
Covered period: The Act now allows borrowers to spend PPP proceeds until the earlier of twenty-four (24) weeks from the loan origination date or December 31, 2020 to qualify for loan forgiveness. This is a significant expansion from the original CARES Act, which required borrowers to spend PPP proceeds within eight (8) weeks of the loan origination date to qualify for forgiveness.
Loan expenditures: The Act now requires borrowers to spend at least 60% of PPP proceeds on payroll expenses to qualify for forgiveness as opposed to the original 75% requirement. With this change, borrowers can use the remaining 40% to pay for other eligible expenses (i.e., rent/lease obligations, utility payments, and mortgage interest).
Workforce restoration:The Act now allows borrowers to restore their workforce and wages to “pre-pandemic” levels by the end of the newly expanded Covered Period (see point 1 above) as opposed to the original deadline of June 30, 2020. Additionally, the Act provides a safe harbor provision which protects a borrower’s eligible amount of loan forgiveness if restoration of the borrower’s workforce and wages cannot be adequately attained.
Unforgiven proceeds loan term:The Act now allows borrowers to pay off any unforgiven loan amount over a five-year term as opposed to the original two-year maximum. The annual interest rate remains at 1%.
Payroll tax deferment: The Act now allows businesses that took a PPP loan to delay payment of their payroll taxes, a practice that was originally prohibited under the CARES Act. Borrowers should, of course, work with directly with their CPA or other financial professional(s) to ensure compliance and maximize their total tax deferment amount and time period.
Texas HHS Names New Operating Officer

Senegal River Development Organization
URL: http://www.omvs.org/
1972-03-11 Nouakchott Mauritania
Founded 11 Mar 1972, Nouakchott (Mauritania), by Presidents of Mali, Mauritania and Senegal, to replace Organization of Senegal Riparian States -- Organisation des Etats riverains du Sénégal (OERS), set up 2 Mar 1968, Labé, and also referred to in English as Organization of Senegal River States. OERS was an enlargement of a 'Comité inter-Etats' - established 26 Jul 1963, Bamako (Mali), by Convention relative à l'aménagement du Bassin du fleuve Sénégal. It superseded H-XH0138 - Mission d'aménagement du fleuve Sénégal (MAS), which was created by the French colonial administration in 1934 and which a joint organization in 1959, linking Senegal, Mauritania and Mali (the latter withdrew on independence). Current Convention concerning the Status of the Senegal River and Convention establishing the Senegal River Development Organization (adopted 13 Mar 1972) suspended the Bamako Convention of 26 Jul 1963 and the Dakar Convention of 7 Feb 1964. Convention amended: 17 Dec 1975; 21 Dec 1978; 11 Dec 1979. Also referred to in English as Organization for the Development of the Senegal River.

Covington and Thankeston, Lanarkshire
COVINGTON and THANKESTON, a parish, in the Upper ward of the county of LANARK, 4 miles (W. by N.) from Biggar; containing 523 inhabitants. Of these ancient parishes, which were united about the beginning of the eighteenth century, the former derives its name, anciently Colbanstoun, from its proprietor Colban in the twelfth ceutury, and the latter, from a Flemish settler named Tankard or Thankard, who obtained a grant of lands here during the reign of Malcolm IV. The parish is about four miles in length from south to north, and nearly three in average breadth. It is bounded on the east by the river Clyde, which separates it from the parish of Libberton. The number of acres is about 5500, of which nearly 2000 are arable, eighty acres woodland and plantations, and the remainder sheep-pasture. The surface is varied, and the scenery in many parts of pleasing character. Along the banks of the Clyde, the soil is rich and fertile, and the lands occasionally subject to inundation; in the higher grounds are some portions of barren heath, but they generally afford good pasturage to numerous flocks of sheep. The system of agriculture is in an improved state; the chief crops are oats, barley, peas, potatoes, and turnips. The lands have been much benefited by furrow-draining; considerable progress has been made in inclosing the several farms, and the farm-buildings and offices are in a very superior condition. In this parish the cattle are chiefly of the Angus breed, and the sheep of the black-faced kind. There is but little wood, and much improvement might be made, both in the appearance of the lands and in affording shelter, by a judicious increase of plantation. The Clyde abounds with trout and pike of considerable size. The villages of Covington and Thankeston are pleasantly situated, and at the latter is a bridge over the Clyde, erected by subscription in 1778. There is also a station at Thankeston of the Caledonian railway, affording great facility of intercourse. For ecclesiastical purposes the parish is within the bounds of the presbytery of Biggar, synod of Lothian and Tweeddale. The minister's stipend is £208. 13. 7., with a manse, and a glebe valued at £17. 10.; patrons alternately, the Lockhart family, of Lee and Carnwath, and Sir Windham Carmichael Anstruther, Bart. The church of Thankeston has been suffered to fall into ruins, and that of Covington has been enlarged for the population of the whole parish. The parochial school is in the village of Covington; the master has a salary of £28, with a house and garden, and the fees average about £16 per annum.

24 Hours to Improving math placement test umd
I’m not the first person to notice that math placement tests are confusing. How can you possibly tell when you have placed your answer in the correct spot? In fact, I bet I’ve never actually seen one of these on a real test; in fact, I’m sure that there are math test sites that have them. The problem is that most of the time you don’t know which answer is supposed to be above a certain number.
Math placement tests are a bit different. The idea is that you answer a math problem about which you know the answer (the number), and then you put the answer in the correct place on the answer sheet. You can obviously check the correct place if you know it, but you cant check the correct number if you dont know it. So you have to actually check the answer you know.
The new math test is just as easy to use as the old one. You just need to know that the number you answered is in your correct place on the answer sheet. So you know that if you are supposed to answer 8, you will need to put the answer in the answer row under 8, and then check that the answer is correct. You dont need to know the exact answer for that test, just the number that you are supposed to put in the correct place on the answer sheet.
The new test was designed to make it easier for students and teachers to see how well they are learning the material they are learning. Students in the new test were told to use their brains by trying to solve problems with as much accuracy as possible. They had to write an answer that was as accurate as they could write it. For example, if a student was told to write 6/9/9, they would need to write 6 + 9 + 9 + 9.
We’re not getting any more answers in this test than we have in the other two tests. We’re not getting any better answers than we have in the other two tests, but we’re getting better answers.
The math placement test that students take for the math program is pretty simple. A student is given a task, and that is to try to explain what they are doing correctly. If they can’t explain themselves, they are allowed to get help by another student.
The math placement test is also designed to be easy to score. To see how easy it is to score, just look at the last paragraph of the test: “To see how easy it is to score, just look at the last paragraph of the test.” While you can see that the test is fairly easy to score, you have to do some work.
The third level of self-awareness is that it is very easy to see what you have to do to be able to see what you actually are doing with your project. The idea is that you use the ability to see what you are doing. We use the ability to see when we’re trying to do something that you are not capable of. We use the ability to see when we are doing something that you think you are not doing.
To really figure out how to use the ability to see what you are doing (and therefore how to use our own self-awareness), we had to do some math. We did a little math to figure out how much work we had to do to see what we were doing, and then we did more math to figure out how much work we had to do to see how we were doing.
This is a real eye-opening experience. The math was a little complicated since as we thought about it we realized that we were doing a whole lot of math, but we weren’t doing anything that required our full attention. We were doing a lot of math but all of it was a little confusing. The only real conclusion we can come to is that math is a good way to find out a person’s strengths and weaknesses. | 2023-14/0037/en_head.json.gz/11087 | {"url": "https://ultrasatprep.com/math-placement-test-umd/", "partition": "head_middle", "language": "en", "source_domain": "ultrasatprep.com", "date_download": "2023-03-20T10:00:26Z", "digest": "sha1:ZSDZAV2YG2MQHKY5OVWSL25YP7BOQPVY"} | {"ccnet_length": [[0, 3541, 3541.0]], "ccnet_original_length": [[0, 3541, 4809.0]], "ccnet_nlines": [[0, 3541, 11.0]], "ccnet_original_nlines": [[0, 3541, 66.0]], "ccnet_language_score": [[0, 3541, 0.99]], "ccnet_perplexity": [[0, 3541, 177.1]], "ccnet_bucket": [[0, 3541, 0.0]], "rps_doc_curly_bracket": [[0, 3541, 0.0]], "rps_doc_ldnoobw_words": [[0, 3541, 0.0]], "rps_doc_lorem_ipsum": [[0, 3541, 0.0]], "rps_doc_stop_word_fraction": [[0, 3541, 0.60526316]], "rps_doc_ut1_blacklist": [[0, 3541, null]], "rps_doc_frac_chars_dupe_10grams": [[0, 3541, 0.06649801]], "rps_doc_frac_chars_dupe_5grams": [[0, 3541, 0.18395374]], "rps_doc_frac_chars_dupe_6grams": [[0, 3541, 0.1619082]], "rps_doc_frac_chars_dupe_7grams": [[0, 3541, 0.15178894]], "rps_doc_frac_chars_dupe_8grams": [[0, 3541, 0.13444163]], "rps_doc_frac_chars_dupe_9grams": [[0, 3541, 0.09035056]], "rps_doc_frac_chars_top_2gram": [[0, 3541, 0.01807011]], "rps_doc_frac_chars_top_3gram": [[0, 3541, 0.0162631]], "rps_doc_frac_chars_top_4gram": [[0, 3541, 0.01734731]], "rps_doc_frac_all_caps_words": [[0, 3541, 0.00626566]], "rps_doc_frac_lines_end_with_ellipsis": [[0, 3541, 0.0]], "rps_doc_frac_no_alph_words": [[0, 3541, 0.10776942]], "rps_doc_frac_unique_words": [[0, 3541, 0.29320113]], "rps_doc_mean_word_length": [[0, 3541, 3.91926346]], "rps_doc_symbol_to_word_ratio": [[0, 3541, 0.0]], "rps_doc_unigram_entropy": [[0, 3541, 4.65685483]], "rps_doc_word_count": [[0, 3541, 706.0]], "rps_lines_ending_with_terminal_punctution_mark": [[0, 46, 0.0], [46, 443, 1.0], [443, 812, 1.0], [812, 1259, 1.0], [1259, 1677, 1.0], [1677, 1870, 1.0], [1870, 2123, 1.0], [2123, 2424, 1.0], [2424, 2815, 1.0], [2815, 3142, 1.0], [3142, 3541, 1.0]], "rps_lines_javascript_counts": [[0, 46, 0.0], [46, 443, 0.0], [443, 812, 0.0], [812, 1259, 0.0], [1259, 1677, 0.0], [1677, 1870, 0.0], [1870, 2123, 0.0], [2123, 2424, 0.0], [2424, 2815, 0.0], [2815, 3142, 0.0], [3142, 3541, 0.0]], "rps_lines_num_words": [[0, 46, 8.0], [46, 443, 77.0], [443, 812, 71.0], [812, 1259, 93.0], [1259, 1677, 81.0], [1677, 1870, 36.0], [1870, 2123, 46.0], [2123, 2424, 64.0], [2424, 2815, 81.0], [2815, 3142, 72.0], [3142, 3541, 77.0]], "rps_lines_numerical_chars_fraction": [[0, 46, 0.04444444], [46, 443, 0.0], [443, 812, 0.0], [812, 1259, 0.00455581], [1259, 1677, 0.01736973], [1677, 1870, 0.0], [1870, 2123, 0.0], [2123, 2424, 0.0], [2424, 2815, 0.0], [2815, 3142, 0.0], [3142, 3541, 0.0]], "rps_lines_start_with_bulletpoint": [[0, 46, 0.0], [46, 443, 0.0], [443, 812, 0.0], [812, 1259, 0.0], [1259, 1677, 0.0], [1677, 1870, 0.0], [1870, 2123, 0.0], [2123, 2424, 0.0], [2424, 2815, 0.0], [2815, 3142, 0.0], [3142, 3541, 0.0]], "rps_lines_uppercase_letter_fraction": [[0, 46, 0.04347826], [46, 443, 0.01763224], [443, 812, 0.01084011], [812, 1259, 0.00894855], [1259, 1677, 0.00956938], [1677, 1870, 0.01036269], [1870, 2123, 0.01185771], [2123, 2424, 0.01328904], [2424, 2815, 0.01023018], [2815, 3142, 0.00611621], [3142, 3541, 0.01002506]], "rps_doc_ml_palm_score": [[0, 3541, 0.11529601]], "rps_doc_ml_wikipedia_score": [[0, 3541, null]], "rps_doc_ml_wikiref_score": [[0, 3541, 0.00886822]], "rps_doc_books_importance": [[0, 3541, -114.88042753]], "rps_doc_openwebtext_importance": [[0, 3541, 76.13607936]], "rps_doc_wikipedia_importance": [[0, 3541, -504.54872648]], "rps_doc_num_sentences": [[0, 3541, 34.0]]} |

Will Russia ever have another Gorbachev
13th March 2023.Reading time 9 minutes.
Not too long ago there was hope that Russia and the West would soon be allies and that Europe would enjoy a long-lasting peace. Much of the credit for that hopeful era belongs to Mikhail Gorbachev, one of the 20th Century’s most consequential and transformative leaders.

Editor’s note: This city profile is part of a larger project in which Daily Universe reporters traveled across Utah and Wyoming to investigate the state of local newspapers.
City: Richfield
Newspaper: The Richfield Reaper
Circulation: 35,000
History: Richfield’s first residents occupied the area over 7,000 years ago. The remains of the Native American Fremont culture dated from 1 CE to 1000 CE can be found near most sites around the Sevier County area. From 1776 to the mid 1800s, explorers and fur traders such as Father Escalante and Jedediah Smith passed through the area on one of the variants of the Old Spanish Trail. It wasn’t until January 1864 that a party of 10 men led by Albert Lewis found fertile soil, lumber and good water in the surrounding hills. Early pioneers of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints soon settled the area, naming it “The Hole in the Ground.”
Economy: The largest employed industries in Richfield include educational services, healthcare and social assistance — employing 20.7% with retail trade just behind employing 20.3%. The median household income in Richfield is $42,363 a year. The job market has dropped -0.1% between April 2018 and April 2019.
Newspaper: Joe Thompson started The Richfield Reaper in 1888 and has been publishing ever since. It is a weekly newspaper which primarily covers Sevier, Wayne and Piute counties but also reaches Sanpete and Garfield counties. The paper is placed in stores on Wednesday evening and delivered by the U.S. Postal Service on Thursday morning. Both locals and those living outside of the area can subscribe to the print edition for home delivery. The publication has earned several awards from the Utah Press Association, as well as the Brehm Communications Better Newspaper Contest.
An informal survey of readers by BYU reporting students about their newspaper showed the following:
Does a good job covering local issues and government
Covers community sports well
Has an online presence (website, Facebook etc.)
Found in local grocery stores
May not cover federal and state government impact on city enough
Poor coverage of social services issues
The print edition is mostly subscription-based

National Groundwater Awareness Week, March 5-11, 2017
March 5 – 11 is National Groundwater Awareness Week, and regardless of whether or not you are a well owner, groundwater is an important resource for everyone.
Below is some useful information that might help to make sure everyone can do their part to keep this precious resource protected.
What is groundwater?
Groundwater is underground water that fills voids, cracks, and other openings in soil and sand to form what are known as aquifers. The major aquifer in our area is the Trinity Aquifer.
Fact: Americans use 79.3 billion gallons of groundwater a day.*
Why is groundwater important?
Not only do many people in rural areas depend on private water wells as their sole source of water, but many public water providers also utilize groundwater if surface water is not available.
Fact: 1 out of 9 people across the world don’t have access to clean water and over 840,000 people die each year from water, sanitation, and hygiene related illnesses. This means groundwater is more important than ever.*
How much groundwater is there?
About 99% of the available freshwater on Earth is groundwater. *
Fact: Groundwater feeds nearly 500 billion gallons of water into U.S. lakes and streams daily.*
How the public can help protect and conserve groundwater:
For private well owners, it is a good practice to have water from the well tested on a regular basis, perhaps annually. Also if there is ever a change in the odor, taste, or smell of the water from a well, then it is a good idea to have it tested.
Follow the directions and use only the recommended amounts when applying items such as pesticides, herbicides and fertilizers.
Dispose of any hazardous substances properly. Pouring them down the drain, dumping them on the ground, or flushing them down the toilet could potentially lead to localized sources of contamination. Contact your local waste authorities regarding the proper disposal of hazardous substances such as pesticides, herbicides, fertilizer, paint/paint thinner, oil, antifreeze, and other chemicals.
Use native Texas plants for landscaping. Once native plants are established, they rarely need extra water to survive since they are adapted to the Texas climate and under normal conditions can survive on rainfall alone.
Catch and use rainwater. Using rainwater to water plants instead of clean drinking water is preferable both for the plants and for conserving potable water for what we really need it for.
Be mindful of water use around the house. For example, on average, a shower uses about 2 gallons of water per minute. So a 30 minute shower could require about 60 gallons of water whereas a 5 minute shower will only use about 10 gallons of water.
Being good stewards of the natural resources such as groundwater will help to ensure that future generations have the same access to fresh groundwater that we enjoy today.

This variety, a cross between Kidd’s Orange Red and Golden Delicious, originated in New Zealand. The Royal Gala strain was named in honor of Queen Elizabeth II, who deemed it her favorite during a visit to New Zealand. It was brought to the United States in the early 1970s and is now one of the country’s most popular apples. Crisp, juicy, and very sweet, Gala is ideal for snacking. Galas can vary in color, from cream to red- and yellow-striped. U.S.-grown Galas are harvested beginning in mid-July and are typically available year round. | 2023-14/0037/en_head.json.gz/11094 | {"url": "https://usapple.org/apple-variety/gala", "partition": "head_middle", "language": "en", "source_domain": "usapple.org", "date_download": "2023-03-20T10:05:47Z", "digest": "sha1:ODN7EJKZCWV4MPT7NKQKGMG2UGV66R7V"} | {"ccnet_length": [[0, 541, 541.0]], "ccnet_original_length": [[0, 541, 1359.0]], "ccnet_nlines": [[0, 541, 1.0]], "ccnet_original_nlines": [[0, 541, 45.0]], "ccnet_language_score": [[0, 541, 0.98]], "ccnet_perplexity": [[0, 541, 86.3]], "ccnet_bucket": [[0, 541, 0.0]], "rps_doc_curly_bracket": [[0, 541, 0.0]], "rps_doc_ldnoobw_words": [[0, 541, 0.0]], "rps_doc_lorem_ipsum": [[0, 541, 0.0]], "rps_doc_stop_word_fraction": [[0, 541, 0.34453782]], "rps_doc_ut1_blacklist": [[0, 541, null]], "rps_doc_frac_chars_dupe_10grams": [[0, 541, 0.0]], "rps_doc_frac_chars_dupe_5grams": [[0, 541, 0.0]], "rps_doc_frac_chars_dupe_6grams": [[0, 541, 0.0]], "rps_doc_frac_chars_dupe_7grams": [[0, 541, 0.0]], "rps_doc_frac_chars_dupe_8grams": [[0, 541, 0.0]], "rps_doc_frac_chars_dupe_9grams": [[0, 541, 0.0]], "rps_doc_frac_chars_top_2gram": [[0, 541, 0.02790698]], "rps_doc_frac_chars_top_3gram": [[0, 541, 0.0]], "rps_doc_frac_chars_top_4gram": [[0, 541, 0.0]], "rps_doc_frac_all_caps_words": [[0, 541, 0.02521008]], "rps_doc_frac_lines_end_with_ellipsis": [[0, 541, 0.0]], "rps_doc_frac_no_alph_words": [[0, 541, 0.16806723]], "rps_doc_frac_unique_words": [[0, 541, 0.74193548]], "rps_doc_mean_word_length": [[0, 541, 4.62365591]], "rps_doc_symbol_to_word_ratio": [[0, 541, 0.0]], "rps_doc_unigram_entropy": [[0, 541, 4.10050668]], "rps_doc_word_count": [[0, 541, 93.0]], "rps_lines_ending_with_terminal_punctution_mark": [[0, 541, 1.0]], "rps_lines_javascript_counts": [[0, 541, 0.0]], "rps_lines_num_words": [[0, 541, 93.0]], "rps_lines_numerical_chars_fraction": [[0, 541, 0.00766284]], "rps_lines_start_with_bulletpoint": [[0, 541, 0.0]], "rps_lines_uppercase_letter_fraction": [[0, 541, 0.04990758]], "rps_doc_ml_palm_score": [[0, 541, 0.7333734]], "rps_doc_ml_wikipedia_score": [[0, 541, null]], "rps_doc_ml_wikiref_score": [[0, 541, 0.02021307]], "rps_doc_books_importance": [[0, 541, -30.18722082]], "rps_doc_openwebtext_importance": [[0, 541, 10.9140332]], "rps_doc_wikipedia_importance": [[0, 541, 19.87521854]], "rps_doc_num_sentences": [[0, 541, 8.0]]} |
When parole, probation officers choose empathy, returns to jail decline

Heavy caseloads, job stress and biases can strain relations between parole and probation officers and their clients, upping offenders’ likelihood of landing back behind bars.
On a more hopeful note, a new UC Berkeley study suggests that nonjudgmental empathy training helps court-appointed supervision officers feel more emotionally connected to their clients and, arguably, better able to deter them from criminal backsliding.
The findings, published today, March 29, in the journal Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, show, on average, a 13% decrease in recidivism among the clients of parole and probation officers who participated in the UC Berkeley empathy training experiment.

“If an officer received this empathic training, real-world behavioral outcomes changed for the people they supervised, who, in turn, were less likely to go back to jail,” said study lead and senior author Jason Okonofua, an assistant professor of psychology at UC Berkeley.
The results are particularly salient in the face of nationwide efforts to reduce prison and jail populations amid a deadly pandemic and other adversities. The U.S. criminal justice system has among the highest rates of recidivism, with approximately two-thirds of incarcerated people rearrested within three years of their release and one-half sent back behind bars.
“The combination of COVID-19 and ongoing criminal justice reforms are diverting more people away from incarceration and toward probation or parole, which is why we need to develop scalable ways to keep pace with this change,” said Okonofua, who has led similar interventions for school teachers to check their biases before disciplining students.
How they conducted the study
At the invitation of a correctional department in a large East Coast city, Okonofua and graduate students in his lab at UC Berkeley sought to find out if a more caring approach on the part of court-appointed supervision officers would reverse trends in recidivism.
Among other duties, parole and probation officers keep track of their clients’ whereabouts, make sure they don’t miss a drug test or court hearing, or otherwise violate the terms of their release, and provide resources to help them stay out of trouble and out of jail.
For the study, the researchers surveyed more than 200 parole and probation officers who oversee more than 20,000 people convicted of crimes ranging from violent crimes to petty theft. Research protocols bar identifying the agency and its location.
Using their own and other scholars’ methodologies, the researchers designed and administered a 30-minute online empathy survey that focused on the officers’ job motivation, biases and views on relationships and responsibilities.
To trigger their sense of purpose and values, and tap into their empathy, the UC Berkeley survey asked what parts of the work they found fulfilling. One respondent talked about how, “When I run across those guys, and they’re doing well, I’m like, ‘Awesome!’” Others reported that being an advocate for people in need was most important to them.
As for addressing biases — including assumptions that certain people are predisposed to a life of crime — the survey cited egregious cases in which probation and parole officers abused their power over those under their supervision.
Survey takers were also asked to rate how much responsibility they bear, as individuals and members of a profession, for their peers’ transgressions. Most answered that they bore no responsibility.

Ten months after administering the training, researchers found a 13% decrease in recidivism among the offenders whose parole and probation officers had completed the empathy survey.
While the study yielded no specifics on what prevented the parolees and people on probation for reoffending in the period following the officers’ empathy training, the results suggest that a change in relationship dynamics played a key role.
“The officer is in a position of power to influence if it’s going to be an empathic or punitive relationship in ways that the person on parole or probation is not,” Okonofua said. “As our study shows, the relationship between probation and parole officers and the people they supervise plays a pivotal role and can lead to positive outcomes, if efforts to be more understanding are taken into consideration.

Origin and Importance of Shankha in Hindu Dharma
By Surabhi December 21, 2019 Resources
The sound of the Conch Shell or Shankha is synonymous with the beginning of something important in Sanatana Dharma (Hinduism), and Buddhism for it symbolizes luster, brilliance, purity, and auspicious beginning. It is considered to be a pious article and is used in all religious rituals.
The Origin of Shankha
It is widely believed that the first use of the Shankha took place during the Samudra Manthan or churning of the ocean. Legends have it that it was used and remained an object of benefaction during Samudra Manthan. Shankha is closely associated with Lord Vishnu and Goddess Lakshmi. Lord Vishnu is usually portrayed holding a conch shell. It is believed that during the Samudra Manthan, the first conch shell appeared, and Goddess Lakshmi followed it.
The God of Wealth is Lord Kubera – who is said to have eight auspicious jewels, and one of them was Sankhanidhi.
In the epic era, the sankha remained an integral part of warfare. And wars restricted to daytime only. Thus the blowing of sankha during sunrise meant that war was on, and again it used to be blown at dusk, signifying retreat to the camps of night rest. It used to signify the victory signal as well.
Importance of Shankha
Hindu socio-religious ethos deeply embeds its importance of Shank. Shankh symbolizes the cosmic space of which the attribute is sabda or sound. The resounding musical notes of sacred sankha rent the air when it is blown during the religious ceremonies, and thus the devotee’s emotions get expressed. In religious rituals, Shankh is used to announce the beginning of a prayer or arrival of a deity, and in some places, sacred water is collected and distributed in it.
While performing Lakshmi Puja, the conch shell is filled with milk, and then it is poured over the idol. Water collected in Shankha is offered while worshipping the sun.
Sankha is an integral part of Vaishnavite symbology. The most famous Shankha is the Panchajanya of Lord Vishnu. In the Mahabharata, Lord Krishna and the five Pandavas had a separate Shankha, and it is referred at the beginning of the Bhagavad Gita.
Types of Shankha
There are two types of Shankha – left-handed conch shell and right-handed conch shell. Valampiri Shankha or Lakshmi Shankha is the right-handed conch shell and is considered auspicious.
Right-handed sankha is kept at home by many people as it is believed to bring wealth and prosperity. It is also associated with Kubera, the god of wealth. Many institutions and organizations employ the conch shell as their symbol.
Musical Importance
Shankha is also part of classical Indian musical instruments, and there is also a mudra based on it in classical dance. There are also numerous legends associated with the Shankha in the vast Sanskrit literature.

Bulgaria’s Last Mink Farm Will Close Because of a New Breeding Ban
Bulgaria has banned the breeding and importing of American Minks, which will lead to the closure of Bulgaria’s last remaining mink fur farm, in the village of Madjerito near Stara Zagora, where 25,000 female minks have been bred. However, this decision was not based on the cruelty of mink farming, but concerns over animals escaping from fur farms and damaging native ecosystems. The legislation does not cover other species commonly farmed for their fur, such as foxes, chinchillas, and raccoon dogs.
The ban is based on the Biological Diversity Act (as amended in 2016), which prohibits “the import and breeding of non-native animal, plant and fungal species, including subspecies and varieties, if their accidental release into the wild will endanger the existence of native species of wild flora, fauna and mycota.”
The ban is the result of a public consultation, which saw 4,000 out of the 4,500 total submissions supporting the measure. Borislav Sandov, the Deputy Prime Minister for Climate Policy and Minister of Environment and Water, said, “After the public discussion and the opinions on all the comments received, I signed the final order for this ban…The conditions at the only farm in Bulgaria are unfavourable and it has allowed minks to enter wildlife areas in recent years and cause damage.”
The American mink (Neovison vison) is included in the list of 100 most dangerous invasive alien species in Europe and is a priority invasive alien species for Bulgaria — which although is an unfair characterisation has helped to secure the ban of mink farms. Many EU countries have already banned mink farming (France being the latest) and other types of farming for fur, but the European Citizens’ Initiative Fur Free Europe has called for a total ban of all fur farms and all fur products from the European market (there is a petition for this purpose). | 2023-14/0037/en_head.json.gz/11097 | {"url": "https://veganfta.com/2022/07/02/bulgarias-last-mink-farm-will-close-because-of-a-new-breeding-ban/", "partition": "head_middle", "language": "en", "source_domain": "veganfta.com", "date_download": "2023-03-20T10:47:33Z", "digest": "sha1:JBOO7TZEUA3WCLFCHSIRVBHZ5XJE36V4"} | {"ccnet_length": [[0, 2009, 2009.0]], "ccnet_original_length": [[0, 2009, 4969.0]], "ccnet_nlines": [[0, 2009, 6.0]], "ccnet_original_nlines": [[0, 2009, 117.0]], "ccnet_language_score": [[0, 2009, 0.95]], "ccnet_perplexity": [[0, 2009, 257.1]], "ccnet_bucket": [[0, 2009, 0.0]], "rps_doc_curly_bracket": [[0, 2009, 0.0]], "rps_doc_ldnoobw_words": [[0, 2009, 0.0]], "rps_doc_lorem_ipsum": [[0, 2009, 0.0]], "rps_doc_stop_word_fraction": [[0, 2009, 0.36363636]], "rps_doc_ut1_blacklist": [[0, 2009, null]], "rps_doc_frac_chars_dupe_10grams": [[0, 2009, 0.0]], "rps_doc_frac_chars_dupe_5grams": [[0, 2009, 0.0]], "rps_doc_frac_chars_dupe_6grams": [[0, 2009, 0.0]], "rps_doc_frac_chars_dupe_7grams": [[0, 2009, 0.0]], "rps_doc_frac_chars_dupe_8grams": [[0, 2009, 0.0]], "rps_doc_frac_chars_dupe_9grams": [[0, 2009, 0.0]], "rps_doc_frac_chars_top_2gram": [[0, 2009, 0.01099572]], "rps_doc_frac_chars_top_3gram": [[0, 2009, 0.01221747]], "rps_doc_frac_chars_top_4gram": [[0, 2009, 0.0]], "rps_doc_frac_all_caps_words": [[0, 2009, 0.00779221]], "rps_doc_frac_lines_end_with_ellipsis": [[0, 2009, 0.0]], "rps_doc_frac_no_alph_words": [[0, 2009, 0.14805195]], "rps_doc_frac_unique_words": [[0, 2009, 0.57272727]], "rps_doc_mean_word_length": [[0, 2009, 4.96060606]], "rps_doc_symbol_to_word_ratio": [[0, 2009, 0.0025974]], "rps_doc_unigram_entropy": [[0, 2009, 4.81972169]], "rps_doc_word_count": [[0, 2009, 330.0]], "rps_lines_ending_with_terminal_punctution_mark": [[0, 77, 0.0], [77, 144, 0.0], [144, 647, 1.0], [647, 965, 1.0], [965, 1454, 1.0], [1454, 2009, 1.0]], "rps_lines_javascript_counts": [[0, 77, 0.0], [77, 144, 0.0], [144, 647, 0.0], [647, 965, 0.0], [965, 1454, 0.0], [1454, 2009, 0.0]], "rps_lines_num_words": [[0, 77, 10.0], [77, 144, 12.0], [144, 647, 81.0], [647, 965, 50.0], [965, 1454, 81.0], [1454, 2009, 96.0]], "rps_lines_numerical_chars_fraction": [[0, 77, 0.13888889], [77, 144, 0.0], [144, 647, 0.01020408], [647, 965, 0.01298701], [965, 1454, 0.01670146], [1454, 2009, 0.00549451]], "rps_lines_start_with_bulletpoint": [[0, 77, 0.0], [77, 144, 0.0], [144, 647, 0.0], [647, 965, 0.0], [965, 1454, 0.0], [1454, 2009, 0.0]], "rps_lines_uppercase_letter_fraction": [[0, 77, 0.07792208], [77, 144, 0.14925373], [144, 647, 0.01789264], [647, 965, 0.01257862], [965, 1454, 0.03067485], [1454, 2009, 0.02882883]], "rps_doc_ml_palm_score": [[0, 2009, 0.94179827]], "rps_doc_ml_wikipedia_score": [[0, 2009, null]], "rps_doc_ml_wikiref_score": [[0, 2009, 0.82843947]], "rps_doc_books_importance": [[0, 2009, -91.48645854]], "rps_doc_openwebtext_importance": [[0, 2009, 36.50621954]], "rps_doc_wikipedia_importance": [[0, 2009, 35.28593545]], "rps_doc_num_sentences": [[0, 2009, 8.0]]} |

ANIMALS: Bewick's Animals
A menagerie printed over a floral background.
About: This print is heavily influenced by Thomas Bewick's illustrated animals.
Thomas Bewick (c. 11 August 1753 – 8 November 1828) was an English wood-engraver, natural history author and natural history illustrator. Early in his career he took on all kinds of work such as engraving cutlery, making the wood blocks for advertisements, and illustrating children's books. He gradually turned to illustrating, writing and publishing his own books, gaining an adult audience for the fine illustrations in A History of Quadrupeds.
Print: Single colour lino relief print.
Relief printing is where a printing block or plate has ink applied to its non-recessed surface which is brought into contact with paper. When pressure is applied, the non-recessed surface will leave ink on the paper, whereas the recessed areas will not.

Pros and Cons of Anabolic Steroids
There have been several scandals involving professional athletes who were found to use performance enhancing drugs. Yet, the use of steroids has been common among sports stars, bodybuilders, and even high school and college athletes. The debate whether these drugs should be legalized or not has been around for quite some time, and proponents from both sides have strong arguments. However, is it really worth it to overlook the disadvantages of using steroids for its advantages? Take a look at some of its pros and cons before you decide what stand to take on the issue.
List of Pros of Anabolic Steroids
1. They improve endurance.
Steroids help the body to produce more red blood cells. The red blood cells are responsible for carrying oxygen to the muscles and other parts of the body. With more red blood cells, the muscles can work longer and harder because there is a more consistent supply of oxygen, so endurance significantly increases. Muscles are also able to recover faster with the help of additional oxygen.
2. They increase power, strength, agility, and speed.
Athletes and bodybuilders are able to improve their overall performance with the help of steroids. This gives them an edge over the competition, but it is also for his reason why performance enhancing drugs are banned from sports leagues and competitions.
3. They can give you a bigger and more muscular body.
Studies show that steroids can increase body size, that is why they are popular with bodybuilders and those who want to bulk up. Additionally, these drugs don’t cause water retention so you end up with a more ripped build.
4. They can help with hormonal imbalances.
Some doctors actually prescribe steroids for patients who have low testosterone levels. These drugs can help in maintaining a more normal level of testosterone when used under the supervision of a physician.
List of Cons of Anabolic Steroids
1. They can become addictive.
Because of their ability to make bodies stronger, bigger, and faster, many athletes, bodybuilders, and weight lifters became addicted to steroids. Even if these drugs are illegal and banned from sports, some individuals find other ways to get them.
2. They put you at a higher risk for certain health conditions.
There have been reports about athletes who abused steroids and ended up suffering from heart attacks and strokes. Users of steroids can also develop kidney and liver problems, high blood pressure and cholesterol, and tumors.
3. They have harmful side effects.
Performance enhancing drugs have several side effects. Since steroids don’t retain water, you can be prone to cramps, dizziness, exhaustion, and dehydration. Men might also have to deal with infertility, shrunken testicles, and breast enlargements, while women may be prone to growing facial hair and baldness. These drugs can also cause acne, and they also interrupt the growth spurt of boys Other known side effects are extreme depression and mood swings.
4. They are illegal.
In some states, you can be arrested for the possession or selling of steroids. There have also been professional athletes who have been stripped of their medals and awards and banned from their respective sports when it was proven that they used performance enhancing drugs.
So, do you think steroids should be legalized? Do you think they are okay to use if they are regulated properly and are done under the supervision of a doctor, despite their harmful side effects?

State Partnership Program Video Presentation
National Guard Bureau
Oct. 26, 2021 | By Sgt. 1st Class Whitney Hughes
The State Partnership Program is a Defense Department security cooperation program managed by the Chief of the National Guard Bureau, executed by geographic commands, and sourced by the 54 states, territories, and the District of Columbia.
The SPP evolved from a 1991 U.S. European Command decision to set up the Joint Contact Team Program in the Baltic Region with Reserve component Soldiers and Airmen. A subsequent National Guard Bureau proposal paired U.S. states with three nations emerging from the former Soviet Bloc and the SPP was born, becoming a key U.S. security cooperation tool, facilitating cooperation across all aspects of international civil-military affairs and encouraging people-to-people ties at the state level.
The program directly supports DOD objectives and theater campaign plans by building relationships that enhance global security, understanding, and cooperation. The program fosters long-term relationships across all levels of society and encourages the development of economic, political, and military ties between the states and partner nations.
Vermont Partnerships
Vermont as among the second group of states to join the State Partnership Program, establishing a partnership with the Republic of North Macedonia on July 14, 1993. Their partnership has included more than 350 military-to-military activities, including collaborative events in Europe and the United States, as well as a shared deployment to Afghanistan in 2010, marking the first time a National Guard unit deployed and served with a state partner. The Vermont National Guard supported their partnership through military assistance and training to help North Macedonia meet NATO standards, leading up to North Macedonia's entry into the alliance in 2020. Vermont and North Macedonia announced in 2021 that they would expand their partnership to include civic and economic opportunities for cooperation.
The relationship between the Vermont National Guard and the Republic of Senegal was established in 2008. Senegalese President Wade visited Vermont in 2008, Senegalese President Sall visited in 2014 and President Obama visited Senegal in 2013. Numerous medical, engineer and aviation exercises have occurred during this partnership.
The partnership between Vermont and Senegal has included engagements in disaster management and domestic response, force management, peace and stability operations, and intensive medical exercises.
In 2015, the Vermont National Guard and engineers with the Senegalese Armed Forces constructed a humanitarian land mine detection training range at Camp Moussa Diom, Bargny, Senegal. The Vermont National Guard and the Republic of Senegal continue to work together in Humanitarian Mine Action programs.
The Vermont National Guard's skilled medical staff partnered with Senegalese counterparts to enhance medical skills by providing real-world medical services to people in Senegal. The Vermont National Guard performed medical training exercises with Senegalese medical teams as part of MEDRETE-18 and MEDRETE-22.
Austria became Vermont's third state partner on Oct. 15, 2021, making Vermont the fifth National Guard with three state partners. The countries' military cooperation stretches back to 1983, with partnerships between the Army Mountain Warfare School, U.S. Army Biathlon Program, and 86th Infantry Brigade Combat Team (Mountain) and their Austrian counterparts. The Vermont National Guard has also undertaken trilateral events with both Senegal and Austria since 2015 through the Physical Security and Stockpile Management Program, focused on safe munitions storage and disposal of expired munitions.

Putting profits to good use
This is the english translation of “Mit Gewinnen Gutes tun“.
Our second grandchild, Josefine, was born on November the 12th, 2010. She might have been premature, but otherwise she was nothing but a little bundle of joy! We felt very grateful, not least because the pregnancy had been far from plain sailing. Everything seemed to be fine – until Josefine got severe meningitis at the age of just seven days old.
She was still in the intensive care unit for premature babies and had to be operated on straight away. It became clear that she would not survive the inflammation of her cerebral membrane unscathed. The doctors delivered a gloomy prognosis, and we are extremely lucky that Josefine has been spared many of the consequences they predicted. Part of that is down to the fact that my son and daughter-in-law have always supported and encouraged her wherever possible. She is still left with a complex set of disabilities.
A promising treatment for my granddaughter
My granddaughter has already had to spend a lot of time in hospitals and other healthcare facilities. She now goes to a Protestant kindergarten, where she receives wonderful one-to-one care. The staff are always saying how smiley she is. Her sister, Isabelle, is nearly three years old and attends the same kindergarten, which is great for both of them.
We are in no doubt that Josefine is a bright girl who is ready to learn and tackle the challenges ahead of her. But she needs the right stimulation! We see Doman therapy as a promising option in this regard (https://www.iahp.org). The treatment has been in use since the 1950s, and trains physiological patterns observed during the natural development of healthy children. It also involves the intense stimulation of the senses.
My task: To raise money and use my contacts
Doman therapy represents a great opportunity for my granddaughter. This makes it all the more difficult to bear that the treatment is not approved in Germany and therefore not covered by health insurance plans. Our research suggests that putting Josefine through Doman therapy would cost around €200,000.
As a businessman and a grandfather, I see it as my duty to put as much of my own money as possible into helping Josefine. But I can’t pay for the therapy on my own. I therefore appeal to my network of contacts to help me raise the money required. In other words: I am looking for people who can make a financial contribution which makes it possible for Josefine to go through Doman therapy. We hope that it will enable her to go on to lead an essentially independent life.
Gratitude – whatever happens
Our granddaughter turns six in November. Some things are not quite as we hoped and prayed when she was born. Despite this, there is only one thing I can say: Thank God for Josefine! It fills me with happiness every time I see her smile, and I am so glad that she is part of our family!

Running north from the Palais Royal is the rue Vivienne. Along its western side is the Bibliothèque Nationale de France (the French National Library). The old one. The new site over on the eastern end of the city is often called the TGB, or Très Grande Bibliothèque (the Very Big Library), a play on words with the TGV, France's high-speed rail train.
Looking up the rue Vivienne from the Palais Royal.
Opposite from the old library, which is undergoing renovations right now, is this restaurant, Le Grand Colbert. It's named for the finance minister who served under King Louis XIV. I walked up the street and liked the contrast between the building's art-deco façade and the scaffolding on the old library.
Le Grand Colbert, open "non-stop" from noon until midnight.
I don't know anything about this restaurant, other than it's famous. I don't know whether it's good, or expensive, or not. Oh well. Something to research, maybe, one day. Let me know if you've been there!

As I've said before (I think), you've got a great eye. I love the contrast.
Jan uit Perth 15 June, 2018 12:11
Totally agree with Mitch, Walt: you have a particularly good feeling for geometric relations!
melinda 15 June, 2018 14:16
i rented an apartment a block from the Colbert....it is lovely inside but I didnt eat there...the reviews werent so hot & the prices were a bit steep if i recall.....I loved being in that location though as it was so central....My daughter lived on rue montmartre at the time (on the 4th floor....whew) but right next to a wonderful restaurant that specialized in duck....think it was a chain...something like chez papa?
I am enjoying this series!

A Bull Market Is Coming: 4 Warren Buffett Investing Quotes to Live by in 2023
Warren Buffett’s incredible track record of market-beating success as CEO of Berkshire Hathaway is proof that he knows how to handle bull and bear cycles. If you’re on the hunt for long-term investment opportunities that can lay the foundation for strong gains down the line, following the wisdom and strategies that have served the Oracle of Omaha so well through the decades could pay off in a big way.
Investors have had to contend with bearish pressures shaping the broader trading backdrop over the last year, but the good news is that the next bull phase is somewhere on the horizon. With that in mind, read on for a look at four Warren Buffett quotes to live by as you make investing moves this year.

“The best chance to deploy capital is when things are going down.”
Buy low, sell high. This age-old aphorism sums up the core goal of investing. Accordingly, it makes sense to build positions in stocks on the heels of valuation pullbacks or amid general market uncertainty. Turbulent market conditions often present the best buying opportunities.
Of course, approaching things this way is often easier said than done. The feeling of losing something is a powerful psychological sensation, and people tend to feel the pain of a loss much more than they the feel pleasure of a win. If you recognize and push through the market’s penchant to fixate on fear during times of uncertainty, you can take advantage of opportunities that will position you to generate lasting wealth.
“Never invest in a business you can’t understand.”
Bear market conditions can present great buying opportunities for investors — but that doesn’t mean it’s smart to throw cash around indiscriminately because stocks have seen big valuation pullbacks. Putting money behind businesses you have little to no understanding of is a great way to take on unneeded risk and set your portfolio up for underperformance.
That doesn’t mean you have to avoid investing in a company unless you have an encyclopedic knowledge of all of its various complexities. If you asked Buffett to explain the inner workings of Apple‘s iPhone, he might not be able to explain its processor, display hardware, or connectivity chips in granular detail. But he could tell you about Apple’s brand strength and competitive moat, why the company’s core products and services are so fantastically profitable, and why he and his portfolio managers have positioned the tech company as Berkshire’s largest stock holding.
When the next hit bull market hits, the rising tide will lift most (if not all) boats — but having a good understanding of the companies you put your money behind will put you in a much better position for investing success.
“Price is what you pay. Value is what you get.”
Price and value won’t always be the same. In fact, unless you wind up buying and selling a stock at exactly the same price in a very short window of time, these two things will naturally diverge for investors. In order to identify stocks that will put them on the right side of that divergence, Buffett and other value-oriented investors aim to find instances where the intrinsic value of a business is below its price.
Look for companies that trade at prices that leave room for value to be unlocked. And it pays to take a judicious, quantitative approach to identifying these opportunities. Beyond asset-based valuation analysis and the use of metrics including price-to-earnings and price-to-sales ratios, using a discounted-free-cash-flow (DCF) analysis can help investors identify stocks with attractive risk-reward profiles.
“If you’re not willing to own a stock for 10 years, don’t even think about owning it for 10 minutes.”
Buffett’s long-term investing approach has served Berkshire Hathaway well through the years. Beyond smoothing out the risks posed by unpredictable twists and turns for the broader market, focusing on stocks that are worth owning for the long haul will force you to narrow in on quality companies that have real competitive advantages and the ability to unlock value over time.
Predicting the future is incredibly difficult. No one can tell you with certainty what the stock market will do over the next month. There are too many variables to account for. On the other hand, there’s plenty of evidence that investors can generate wealth by backing strong businesses and letting things play out over long time horizons.
As the saying goes, time in the market beats trying to time the market. Buffett’s incredible success is a testament to what’s possible when you focus on finding great companies and letting time in the market work for you. It’s an approach that’s worth replicating in preparation for the next bull run.

Jeep Liberty Problems | Avoid These Model Years
The Jeep Liberty was manufactured and marketed by the Chrysler Corporation from 2001 to 2007. It was first introduced in 2001 as an update of the Cherokee, which had been discontinued at the end of 2000.
The Liberty’s design featured a more rugged appearance than its predecessor, with larger wheel arches and body cladding. At launch, it offered three trim levels: Sport, Limited (later renamed X), and Renegade (later renamed Trailhawk).
Of all the Jeep models, there’s one that some might say is plagued with problems: Liberty. But which year has been toughest on it? To help you avoid these Jeep Liberty issues , we will tell you what years to avoid.
Most Common Jeep Liberty Problems
2002 Jeep Liberty Problems
2002 Jeep Liberty | wikipedia
When the 2002 Jeep Liberty launched, it was immediately clear that there were significant safety concerns.
Compared to its predecessor in 2001 which had less concerns and almost no complaints about engine failures or windows causing injury due to shoddy design, this car model, unfortunately, fell short on several fronts when compared with other popular models from Ford Motor Company like the Explorer.
The most frequent complaint focused around inadequate visibility through the windshield because numerous reports showed how many instances where drivers couldn’t see what they were coming up against before their collision occurred – for example an unyielding tree limb while driving down a winding country road at night-time hours without headlights turned on.
Advanced issues with windows and wind turbines include window fractures, power outages, window leaks, stained glass back support.
The cost to repair a broken window regulator is almost 360 dollars after 95k miles of use when it’s typically replaced by mechanics to avoid costly repairs in more serious cases that require replacement parts or an entirely new door assembly.
2003 Jeep Liberty | wikimedia
The 2003 Jeep Liberty has been recalled for many safety issues, including the risk of fire and fuel leaks.
There have also been reports that the front suspension may fail due to corrosion or defective parts. Other complaints include excessive oil consumption, brake problems, and faulty airbags. .
In addition to these recurring issues with the vehicle’s design, there are also some more minor concerns such as poor gas mileage and an uncomfortable ride.

One such model is the 2006 jeep liberty which has been known to experience issues with their climate control systems.
If you’re having problems with your 2006 Jeep Liberty AC, it may be because of a leak in the system. Follow these steps to test for leaks and fix them:
1) Turn off the A/C compressor by pressing on the center button below the steering wheel. Use your finger or a pen cap if you don’t have an air-conditioner tool kit.
2) Turn on the heater and set it to high heat.
3) Check under all dashboards and around pedals for signs of coolant leaking from any part of the cooling system; this includes engine, condenser, evaporator, etc. Any sign of liquid is indicative of a problem that needs fixing.
Another problem is that the vehicle’s throttle body may have been manufactured with an incorrect part. Other issues include faulty brake lights, fuel pump failure, and more.

Jim Hopper Quotes
You wanna go out in the world?! You better grow up! Grow the hell up!
- Jim Hopper
It’s Fabergé Organics. Use the shampoo and the conditioner, and when your hair’s damp—it’s not wet, okay? When it’s damp, do four puffs of the Farrah Fawcett spray.
Nothing is gonna go back to the way that it was. Not really. But it’ll get better. In time.
Mornings are for coffee and contemplation.
Rule number two: only open the door, if you hear my secret knock.
Feelings. The truth is, for so long, I'd forgotten what those even were. Ive been stuck in that place, in a cave, you might say. A deep, dark cave.
Just curious why all of a sudden you look like some MTV punk.
If you don’t mind, for the sake of your poor old dad, keep the door open three inches.
I was wrong this whole time. I wasn't cursed. I am the curse.
After Sara... I saw her too. And I heard her. I didn’t know what was real. And then I figured out that it was in my mind, and I had to pack all that away... otherwise I was gonna fall down a hole, that I couldn’t get out of.
Make mistakes, learn from them and when life hurts you, because it will, remember the hurt. The hurt is good. It means you’re out of that cave.
C-O-M-promise. Compromise? How ’bout that’s your word for the day, yeah? It’s something that’s kinda in-between, something like… half-way happy. | 2023-14/0037/en_head.json.gz/11112 | {"url": "https://weheartquotes.com/keyword/jim-hopper", "partition": "head_middle", "language": "en", "source_domain": "weheartquotes.com", "date_download": "2023-03-20T09:50:03Z", "digest": "sha1:P47E77BTVWVFBVSF5YLHYV74BNLMYV36"} | {"ccnet_length": [[0, 1339, 1339.0]], "ccnet_original_length": [[0, 1339, 1670.0]], "ccnet_nlines": [[0, 1339, 14.0]], "ccnet_original_nlines": [[0, 1339, 37.0]], "ccnet_language_score": [[0, 1339, 0.93]], "ccnet_perplexity": [[0, 1339, 327.3]], "ccnet_bucket": [[0, 1339, 0.0]], "rps_doc_curly_bracket": [[0, 1339, 0.0]], "rps_doc_ldnoobw_words": [[0, 1339, 0.0]], "rps_doc_lorem_ipsum": [[0, 1339, 0.0]], "rps_doc_stop_word_fraction": [[0, 1339, 0.41595442]], "rps_doc_ut1_blacklist": [[0, 1339, null]], "rps_doc_frac_chars_dupe_10grams": [[0, 1339, 0.0]], "rps_doc_frac_chars_dupe_5grams": [[0, 1339, 0.0]], "rps_doc_frac_chars_dupe_6grams": [[0, 1339, 0.0]], "rps_doc_frac_chars_dupe_7grams": [[0, 1339, 0.0]], "rps_doc_frac_chars_dupe_8grams": [[0, 1339, 0.0]], "rps_doc_frac_chars_dupe_9grams": [[0, 1339, 0.0]], "rps_doc_frac_chars_top_2gram": [[0, 1339, 0.01766438]], "rps_doc_frac_chars_top_3gram": [[0, 1339, 0.01766438]], "rps_doc_frac_chars_top_4gram": [[0, 1339, 0.0]], "rps_doc_frac_all_caps_words": [[0, 1339, 0.04558405]], "rps_doc_frac_lines_end_with_ellipsis": [[0, 1339, 0.0]], "rps_doc_frac_no_alph_words": [[0, 1339, 0.21652422]], "rps_doc_frac_unique_words": [[0, 1339, 0.62352941]], "rps_doc_mean_word_length": [[0, 1339, 3.99607843]], "rps_doc_symbol_to_word_ratio": [[0, 1339, 0.00854701]], "rps_doc_unigram_entropy": [[0, 1339, 4.78576478]], "rps_doc_word_count": [[0, 1339, 255.0]], "rps_lines_ending_with_terminal_punctution_mark": [[0, 18, 0.0], [18, 88, 1.0], [88, 101, 0.0], [101, 266, 1.0], [266, 358, 1.0], [358, 401, 1.0], [401, 467, 1.0], [467, 615, 1.0], [615, 677, 1.0], [677, 764, 1.0], [764, 826, 1.0], [826, 1051, 1.0], [1051, 1195, 1.0], [1195, 1339, 1.0]], "rps_lines_javascript_counts": [[0, 18, 0.0], [18, 88, 0.0], [88, 101, 0.0], [101, 266, 0.0], [266, 358, 0.0], [358, 401, 0.0], [401, 467, 0.0], [467, 615, 0.0], [615, 677, 0.0], [677, 764, 0.0], [764, 826, 0.0], [826, 1051, 0.0], [1051, 1195, 0.0], [1195, 1339, 0.0]], "rps_lines_num_words": [[0, 18, 3.0], [18, 88, 15.0], [88, 101, 2.0], [101, 266, 28.0], [266, 358, 19.0], [358, 401, 6.0], [401, 467, 13.0], [467, 615, 29.0], [615, 677, 13.0], [677, 764, 18.0], [764, 826, 13.0], [826, 1051, 49.0], [1051, 1195, 27.0], [1195, 1339, 20.0]], "rps_lines_numerical_chars_fraction": [[0, 18, 0.0], [18, 88, 0.0], [88, 101, 0.0], [101, 266, 0.0], [266, 358, 0.0], [358, 401, 0.0], [401, 467, 0.0], [467, 615, 0.0], [615, 677, 0.0], [677, 764, 0.0], [764, 826, 0.0], [826, 1051, 0.0], [1051, 1195, 0.0], [1195, 1339, 0.0]], "rps_lines_start_with_bulletpoint": [[0, 18, 0.0], [18, 88, 0.0], [88, 101, 0.0], [101, 266, 0.0], [266, 358, 0.0], [358, 401, 0.0], [401, 467, 0.0], [467, 615, 0.0], [615, 677, 0.0], [677, 764, 0.0], [764, 826, 0.0], [826, 1051, 0.0], [1051, 1195, 0.0], [1195, 1339, 0.0]], "rps_lines_uppercase_letter_fraction": [[0, 18, 0.16666667], [18, 88, 0.04285714], [88, 101, 0.15384615], [101, 266, 0.04242424], [266, 358, 0.04347826], [358, 401, 0.02325581], [401, 467, 0.01515152], [467, 615, 0.03378378], [615, 677, 0.06451613], [677, 764, 0.01149425], [764, 826, 0.0483871], [826, 1051, 0.04888889], [1051, 1195, 0.02083333], [1195, 1339, 0.04166667]], "rps_doc_ml_palm_score": [[0, 1339, 0.45344055]], "rps_doc_ml_wikipedia_score": [[0, 1339, null]], "rps_doc_ml_wikiref_score": [[0, 1339, 0.00386399]], "rps_doc_books_importance": [[0, 1339, -47.52170204]], "rps_doc_openwebtext_importance": [[0, 1339, 28.00054519]], "rps_doc_wikipedia_importance": [[0, 1339, -224.40291195]], "rps_doc_num_sentences": [[0, 1339, 34.0]]} |
With the exception of the prizes for the Best Actor, Best Actress, and Director of the Winning Play, the winners hold their trophies for twelve months and are then called upon to defend them at the following year’s Festival.
THE FIRST PRIZE is the Welwyn Cup. It is sometimes referred to as the L. T. M. Gray Cup because it was presented in 1929 by Dr Gray, the then Chairman of the Welwyn Garden City Urban District Council and one of the most enthusiastic and generous of local drama supporters. The cup was designed and made by J. P. Steele, a Welwyn Garden City craftsman, in his workshop in Bridge Road.
THE SECOND PRIZE was originally a cash award only. From 1929 to 1931 it was three guineas (£3.15) and from 1932 to 1936 it was five guineas (£5.25). In 1937, in addition to the cash, there was awarded the ‘Amateur Theatre Trophy’ – the nature and provenance of which remains a mystery. The Festival Committee Minutes record that the Amateur Theatre Trophy had been presented to the Festival Committee in 1937 and they decided at a meeting in May 1937 to award it as second prize. In 1948 the trophy disappeared from the Festival scene as suddenly as it had come, the Minutes of the time reporting merely that “it was agreed to discontinue the award of the Amateur Theatre Trophy as a second prize”. Mr J. P. Steele was commissioned to make a second prize trophy which the Committee agreed should be called the Parkway Trophy. In 1980 the Parkway Trophy was renamed in memory of Roy Brewer, who had been closely associated with the Festival from 1930 until his death 50 years later and was Festival Secretary for ten years.
THE THIRD PRIZE was first awarded in 1932. It was a modest cash award and remained so until festivals were abandoned during the Second World War. From 1946 to 1959 diplomas were presented to the teams placed third. In 1960 the Margaret Osborn Trophy was created, named after the wife of the founder of the Festival. It takes the form of a wooden casket containing bronze plates engraved with the names of the teams which have won it and incorporating, with their permission, the Coat of Arms of the Welwyn Garden City Urban District Council. The casket was made by the Welwyn Craftworkers Guild. Lady Margaret Osborn died in 1970.
THE WELWYN AWARDS are won outright by the actor and actress who in the adjudicator’s opinion give the best individual performances during the Festival. They were specially designed silver medals, first awarded in 1954, to mark the 21st Festival. The design was based on the ‘City on a Hill’ motif, used extensively as the symbol of Welwyn Garden City in the town’s earliest days. The rising cost of silver medals eventually compelled their abandonment and the final pair, specially gilded, were awarded at the Golden Jubilee Festival in 1984. Since then, the Winifred Butler Award (renamed in her memory in 1992) for the best actress and the Welwyn Award (for the best actor) have taken the form of engraved onyx paperweights.
THE F. J. OSBORN AUDIENCE APPRECIATION AWARD is given to the entry which receives the majority of votes by Festival season ticket holders and was first awarded in 1962. To mark Sir Frederic Osborn’s 80th birthday during Festival week in 1965 a permanent trophy was devised. It is in the form of a silver book-like triptych, each section of which carries the names of the winners. The trophy was provided by the Festival Subscribers Association and was designed by Mr F. Newland-Smith, a nationally-known artist and craftsman who lived in Welwyn Garden City.
THE BEHRENS-STEINFELD TROPHY is awarded to the Producer (nowadays normally termed ‘Director’) showing the most complete and imaginative approach. It was first awarded in 1966 in memory of Kaete Behrens-Steinfeld who died in 1965, shortly after the 1965 Festival. She first came to the Festival in 1947 and for eighteen years brought two excellent productions by societies from North Hertfordshire. The trophy, in a likeness of Kaete, was donated to the Festival by the Baldock Drama Group, with which she was associated for many years. It was created in bronze by Kathleen Parbury, arbs, and was subscribed for by Kaete’s friends in this country and abroad.
THE CHARLES PILGREM TROPHY is for the Festival entry which gives the best stage presentation. It was first awarded in 1968 in memory of Charles Pilgrem who died in the summer of 1967, having been the Festival’s Stage Director since 1958. His association with the Festival began in 1946. The trophy was donated by Festival Workshop, of Welwyn Garden City. It takes the form of a silver plate on a stand.
THE NEW PLAY PRIZE was, from 1930 until 1986, a cash award. In 1987 the cash prize was supplemented by the permanent DERRICK BALDOCK CUP. This was awarded for the first time at the 1987 Festival and was donated by The Welwyn Times in memory of Derrick Baldock. He had been that newspaper’s admirable drama critic for fifteen years and collapsed and died in the Barn Theatre in 1987. The cup is awarded – with the cash prize – to the author of the Festival’s best unpublished play which has not previously won a new play prize, nor been given any professional performance.
THE Peter Shatford Award was donated in 1998 by long-term Festival competitors from Kettering in Northamptonshire, the Cytringan Players. It is to commemorate their talented and dedicated producer for many years, Peter Shatford, who had died the previous year. The trophy is a curved block of engraved glass, and is awarded, in perpetuity, to the Director of the winning play. (Although very often he or she is also the recipient of the Behrens-Steinfeld Trophy, the ‘double’ is not automatic, so the Peter Shatford Trophy can come as a welcome personal recognition of the successful outcome of the Director’s work).
THE LOUIS DAVIS ADJUDICATOR’S AWARD was donated by Louis on his retirement as Chairman (and ‘elevation’ to President) at the end of the 2000 Festival. It is a ‘floating’ award, to be given, at the discretion of the Adjudicator, to a person, persons or team which, in his or her opinion, has made a special contribution to the success of the Festival. | 2023-14/0037/en_head.json.gz/11113 | {"url": "https://welwyndramafestival.com/more-about-us/about/", "partition": "head_middle", "language": "en", "source_domain": "welwyndramafestival.com", "date_download": "2023-03-20T09:54:53Z", "digest": "sha1:OVR333MKPN7LQJIEZDITRXLJ3LVQIALM"} | {"ccnet_length": [[0, 6148, 6148.0]], "ccnet_original_length": [[0, 6148, 8450.0]], "ccnet_nlines": [[0, 6148, 11.0]], "ccnet_original_nlines": [[0, 6148, 115.0]], "ccnet_language_score": [[0, 6148, 0.99]], "ccnet_perplexity": [[0, 6148, 146.8]], "ccnet_bucket": [[0, 6148, 0.0]], "rps_doc_curly_bracket": [[0, 6148, 0.0]], "rps_doc_ldnoobw_words": [[0, 6148, 0.0]], "rps_doc_lorem_ipsum": [[0, 6148, 0.0]], "rps_doc_stop_word_fraction": [[0, 6148, 0.40441176]], "rps_doc_ut1_blacklist": [[0, 6148, null]], "rps_doc_frac_chars_dupe_10grams": [[0, 6148, 0.0]], "rps_doc_frac_chars_dupe_5grams": [[0, 6148, 0.0451249]], "rps_doc_frac_chars_dupe_6grams": [[0, 6148, 0.02336825]], "rps_doc_frac_chars_dupe_7grams": [[0, 6148, 0.01651894]], "rps_doc_frac_chars_dupe_8grams": [[0, 6148, 0.01651894]], "rps_doc_frac_chars_dupe_9grams": [[0, 6148, 0.0]], "rps_doc_frac_chars_top_2gram": [[0, 6148, 0.01913779]], "rps_doc_frac_chars_top_3gram": [[0, 6148, 0.01933924]], "rps_doc_frac_chars_top_4gram": [[0, 6148, 0.01369863]], "rps_doc_frac_all_caps_words": [[0, 6148, 0.04003268]], "rps_doc_frac_lines_end_with_ellipsis": [[0, 6148, 0.0]], "rps_doc_frac_no_alph_words": [[0, 6148, 0.15604575]], "rps_doc_frac_unique_words": [[0, 6148, 0.36956522]], "rps_doc_mean_word_length": [[0, 6148, 4.69187146]], "rps_doc_symbol_to_word_ratio": [[0, 6148, 0.0]], "rps_doc_unigram_entropy": [[0, 6148, 5.06841715]], "rps_doc_word_count": [[0, 6148, 1058.0]], "rps_lines_ending_with_terminal_punctution_mark": [[0, 225, 1.0], [225, 609, 1.0], [609, 1632, 1.0], [1632, 2263, 1.0], [2263, 2990, 1.0], [2990, 3548, 1.0], [3548, 4206, 1.0], [4206, 4609, 1.0], [4609, 5181, 1.0], [5181, 5798, 1.0], [5798, 6148, 1.0]], "rps_lines_javascript_counts": [[0, 225, 0.0], [225, 609, 0.0], [609, 1632, 0.0], [1632, 2263, 0.0], [2263, 2990, 0.0], [2990, 3548, 0.0], [3548, 4206, 0.0], [4206, 4609, 0.0], [4609, 5181, 0.0], [5181, 5798, 0.0], [5798, 6148, 0.0]], "rps_lines_num_words": [[0, 225, 39.0], [225, 609, 72.0], [609, 1632, 182.0], [1632, 2263, 110.0], [2263, 2990, 121.0], [2990, 3548, 93.0], [3548, 4206, 106.0], [4206, 4609, 71.0], [4609, 5181, 103.0], [5181, 5798, 99.0], [5798, 6148, 62.0]], "rps_lines_numerical_chars_fraction": [[0, 225, 0.0], [225, 609, 0.01075269], [609, 1632, 0.04785643], [1632, 2263, 0.03225806], [2263, 2990, 0.01969058], [2990, 3548, 0.01834862], [3548, 4206, 0.02492212], [4206, 4609, 0.04050633], [4609, 5181, 0.03552398], [5181, 5798, 0.00666667], [5798, 6148, 0.01176471]], "rps_lines_start_with_bulletpoint": [[0, 225, 0.0], [225, 609, 0.0], [609, 1632, 0.0], [1632, 2263, 0.0], [2263, 2990, 0.0], [2990, 3548, 0.0], [3548, 4206, 0.0], [4206, 4609, 0.0], [4609, 5181, 0.0], [5181, 5798, 0.0], [5798, 6148, 0.0]], "rps_lines_uppercase_letter_fraction": [[0, 225, 0.04], [225, 609, 0.1015625], [609, 1632, 0.04887586], [1632, 2263, 0.06180666], [2263, 2990, 0.04676754], [2990, 3548, 0.09677419], [3548, 4206, 0.06990881], [4206, 4609, 0.09677419], [4609, 5181, 0.07867133], [5181, 5798, 0.03889789], [5798, 6148, 0.10571429]], "rps_doc_ml_palm_score": [[0, 6148, 0.92128152]], "rps_doc_ml_wikipedia_score": [[0, 6148, null]], "rps_doc_ml_wikiref_score": [[0, 6148, 0.92025632]], "rps_doc_books_importance": [[0, 6148, -81.67619215]], "rps_doc_openwebtext_importance": [[0, 6148, 87.99679282]], "rps_doc_wikipedia_importance": [[0, 6148, 206.09320623]], "rps_doc_num_sentences": [[0, 6148, 60.0]]} |
They Tried Tσ Wash This Dσg’s Eyebrσws Out And Fσund They Hadn’t Been Painted!
They rescued the dog and thought it had painted eyebrows, but were surprised to find that they were unique traces.
A dog with eyebrows finds a forever family
The number of homeless animals in the world is unfortunate. However, if they are lucky, some of these animals may find a forever home.
Betty is just a puppy who was found wandering the streets of Blutsk, Russia.
When her rescuers took her to a shelter they thought that someone had painted on her eyebrows, but when they tried to clean them they realized that her markings were unique.
Oksana, Betty’s mother, told Bolle Panda: “Her eyebrows were painted on by her mother.
His eyebrows are marks of his mother or his father. The skin of the eyebrows is darker than any other part. Then nature decided that it was time.
They tried to wash out this dog’s eyebrows, but they were a unique mark!
Due to its unique features, the shelter then called it “Frida” in honor of the famous Mexican artist Frida Kahlo.
Shelter staff posted about the dog on their website, drawing the attention of netizens. Netizens sent him well wishes and hoped that he would be adopted soon.
Oksana was one of those who fell in love with this adorable dog.
I saw her in a photo on the shelter’s website and fell in love with her. Many people called to pick it up, but when they saw it they turned it down.
Oksana decided to take Frida home, but gave her a new name: “Betty”.
When I saw her, I cried. And when I went to pick her up, she immediately fell asleep, and again I cried with happiness.
Betty was a little scared at first. Perhaps they had to take her to the vet, where she received all the necessary vaccinations. But after all her ordeal, her Betty fell in love with her new family.
“She is a gift of fate, intelligence and love, and she loves children. I look at her and she is always smiling. I am lucky to have one of the best dogs in the world.
This dog is one of a kind, she is so happy now, and her family is so happy that this story has a good ending and that Betty has found a welcoming and loving forever home. | 2023-14/0037/en_head.json.gz/11114 | {"url": "https://wepeda.com/they-tried-to-wash-this-dogs-eyebrows-out-and-found-they-hadnt-been-painted/", "partition": "head_middle", "language": "en", "source_domain": "wepeda.com", "date_download": "2023-03-20T09:05:45Z", "digest": "sha1:HZQH3K3CGP6REBDRRE2TC3HFNM4W6MLS"} | {"ccnet_length": [[0, 2139, 2139.0]], "ccnet_original_length": [[0, 2139, 4617.0]], "ccnet_nlines": [[0, 2139, 18.0]], "ccnet_original_nlines": [[0, 2139, 84.0]], "ccnet_language_score": [[0, 2139, 0.99]], "ccnet_perplexity": [[0, 2139, 292.0]], "ccnet_bucket": [[0, 2139, 0.0]], "rps_doc_curly_bracket": [[0, 2139, 0.0]], "rps_doc_ldnoobw_words": [[0, 2139, 0.0]], "rps_doc_lorem_ipsum": [[0, 2139, 0.0]], "rps_doc_stop_word_fraction": [[0, 2139, 0.47121535]], "rps_doc_ut1_blacklist": [[0, 2139, null]], "rps_doc_frac_chars_dupe_10grams": [[0, 2139, 0.0]], "rps_doc_frac_chars_dupe_5grams": [[0, 2139, 0.02016607]], "rps_doc_frac_chars_dupe_6grams": [[0, 2139, 0.0]], "rps_doc_frac_chars_dupe_7grams": [[0, 2139, 0.0]], "rps_doc_frac_chars_dupe_8grams": [[0, 2139, 0.0]], "rps_doc_frac_chars_dupe_9grams": [[0, 2139, 0.0]], "rps_doc_frac_chars_top_2gram": [[0, 2139, 0.01601423]], "rps_doc_frac_chars_top_3gram": [[0, 2139, 0.01779359]], "rps_doc_frac_chars_top_4gram": [[0, 2139, 0.02491103]], "rps_doc_frac_all_caps_words": [[0, 2139, 0.01705757]], "rps_doc_frac_lines_end_with_ellipsis": [[0, 2139, 0.0]], "rps_doc_frac_no_alph_words": [[0, 2139, 0.12793177]], "rps_doc_frac_unique_words": [[0, 2139, 0.46039604]], "rps_doc_mean_word_length": [[0, 2139, 4.17326733]], "rps_doc_symbol_to_word_ratio": [[0, 2139, 0.0]], "rps_doc_unigram_entropy": [[0, 2139, 4.79779409]], "rps_doc_word_count": [[0, 2139, 404.0]], "rps_lines_ending_with_terminal_punctution_mark": [[0, 79, 1.0], [79, 194, 1.0], [194, 237, 0.0], [237, 372, 1.0], [372, 449, 1.0], [449, 623, 1.0], [623, 710, 1.0], [710, 856, 1.0], [856, 929, 1.0], [929, 1043, 1.0], [1043, 1202, 1.0], [1202, 1267, 1.0], [1267, 1416, 1.0], [1416, 1485, 1.0], [1485, 1605, 1.0], [1605, 1803, 1.0], [1803, 1969, 1.0], [1969, 2139, 1.0]], "rps_lines_javascript_counts": [[0, 79, 0.0], [79, 194, 0.0], [194, 237, 0.0], [237, 372, 0.0], [372, 449, 0.0], [449, 623, 0.0], [623, 710, 0.0], [710, 856, 0.0], [856, 929, 0.0], [929, 1043, 0.0], [1043, 1202, 0.0], [1202, 1267, 0.0], [1267, 1416, 0.0], [1416, 1485, 0.0], [1485, 1605, 0.0], [1605, 1803, 0.0], [1803, 1969, 0.0], [1969, 2139, 0.0]], "rps_lines_num_words": [[0, 79, 14.0], [79, 194, 20.0], [194, 237, 8.0], [237, 372, 24.0], [372, 449, 14.0], [449, 623, 31.0], [623, 710, 14.0], [710, 856, 28.0], [856, 929, 14.0], [929, 1043, 20.0], [1043, 1202, 27.0], [1202, 1267, 13.0], [1267, 1416, 32.0], [1416, 1485, 13.0], [1485, 1605, 24.0], [1605, 1803, 37.0], [1803, 1969, 35.0], [1969, 2139, 36.0]], "rps_lines_numerical_chars_fraction": [[0, 79, 0.0], [79, 194, 0.0], [194, 237, 0.0], [237, 372, 0.0], [372, 449, 0.0], [449, 623, 0.0], [623, 710, 0.0], [710, 856, 0.0], [856, 929, 0.0], [929, 1043, 0.0], [1043, 1202, 0.0], [1202, 1267, 0.0], [1267, 1416, 0.0], [1416, 1485, 0.0], [1485, 1605, 0.0], [1605, 1803, 0.0], [1803, 1969, 0.0], [1969, 2139, 0.0]], "rps_lines_start_with_bulletpoint": [[0, 79, 0.0], [79, 194, 0.0], [194, 237, 0.0], [237, 372, 0.0], [372, 449, 0.0], [449, 623, 0.0], [623, 710, 0.0], [710, 856, 0.0], [856, 929, 0.0], [929, 1043, 0.0], [1043, 1202, 0.0], [1202, 1267, 0.0], [1267, 1416, 0.0], [1416, 1485, 0.0], [1485, 1605, 0.0], [1605, 1803, 0.0], [1803, 1969, 0.0], [1969, 2139, 0.0]], "rps_lines_uppercase_letter_fraction": [[0, 79, 0.17721519], [79, 194, 0.00869565], [194, 237, 0.02325581], [237, 372, 0.01481481], [372, 449, 0.03896104], [449, 623, 0.00574713], [623, 710, 0.05747126], [710, 856, 0.02054795], [856, 929, 0.01369863], [929, 1043, 0.04385965], [1043, 1202, 0.01257862], [1202, 1267, 0.01538462], [1267, 1416, 0.01342282], [1416, 1485, 0.04347826], [1485, 1605, 0.05], [1605, 1803, 0.02020202], [1803, 1969, 0.01807229], [1969, 2139, 0.01176471]], "rps_doc_ml_palm_score": [[0, 2139, 0.89899087]], "rps_doc_ml_wikipedia_score": [[0, 2139, null]], "rps_doc_ml_wikiref_score": [[0, 2139, 0.02027243]], "rps_doc_books_importance": [[0, 2139, 53.70074741]], "rps_doc_openwebtext_importance": [[0, 2139, 55.04801577]], "rps_doc_wikipedia_importance": [[0, 2139, -94.72101556]], "rps_doc_num_sentences": [[0, 2139, 27.0]]} |
Jeffrey Riechmann
Riechmann is a retired firefighter who relocated to Idaho three years ago. He currently works part-time as a safety engineer for a construction company where his expertise in working at heights safety is utilized.
As an aspiring rock climber, and with input from fellow climbers, he organized Courageous Kids Climbing. In three years, the organization has conducted events in Boise, Cascade, Driggs, McCall, and Moscow, Idaho; Ellensburg and Spokane, Washington; and Bakersfield, California, reaching 200 kids. Depending on the location, the courageous kids have climbed indoor and outdoor climbing walls. They have scrambled on boulders. Learned about balance on a slackline and built their confidence on a rope course. The organization has also provided rescue equipment to emergency responders and sponsors the “Courageous Kids Scholarship” which provides a $1000 scholarship to a person with special needs to attend the University of Idaho.

Meridian and all the details!
Meridian City, located in north-central Alabama, was first established in 1825. The city is located about halfway between Montgomery and Birmingham, and is about an hour from each. Meridian is also home to The University of Alabama at Birmingham (UAB) and the state's largest health care provider, Blue Cross and Blue Shield. The city's geographic location offers a wealth of recreational opportunities, including fishing, skiing, hiking, and boating, as well as cultural experiences, such as attending a show at the Center Stage Theater or browsing the galleries at the Huntsville Museum of Art. The city is also home to the state capitol, and is the site of important events such as the State of the Union address and the March on Washington. | 2023-14/0037/en_head.json.gz/11116 | {"url": "https://whattimedoesitgetdark.com/meridian", "partition": "head_middle", "language": "en", "source_domain": "whattimedoesitgetdark.com", "date_download": "2023-03-20T10:39:48Z", "digest": "sha1:EJB5TQKAMTMCTCE5QWM52JKCNJMY5OHP"} | {"ccnet_length": [[0, 1041, 1041.0]], "ccnet_original_length": [[0, 1041, 2992.0]], "ccnet_nlines": [[0, 1041, 6.0]], "ccnet_original_nlines": [[0, 1041, 26.0]], "ccnet_language_score": [[0, 1041, 0.98]], "ccnet_perplexity": [[0, 1041, 79.6]], "ccnet_bucket": [[0, 1041, 0.0]], "rps_doc_curly_bracket": [[0, 1041, 0.0]], "rps_doc_ldnoobw_words": [[0, 1041, 0.0]], "rps_doc_lorem_ipsum": [[0, 1041, 0.0]], "rps_doc_stop_word_fraction": [[0, 1041, 0.3627451]], "rps_doc_ut1_blacklist": [[0, 1041, null]], "rps_doc_frac_chars_dupe_10grams": [[0, 1041, 0.26904762]], "rps_doc_frac_chars_dupe_5grams": [[0, 1041, 0.3047619]], "rps_doc_frac_chars_dupe_6grams": [[0, 1041, 0.26904762]], "rps_doc_frac_chars_dupe_7grams": [[0, 1041, 0.26904762]], "rps_doc_frac_chars_dupe_8grams": [[0, 1041, 0.26904762]], "rps_doc_frac_chars_dupe_9grams": [[0, 1041, 0.26904762]], "rps_doc_frac_chars_top_2gram": [[0, 1041, 0.025]], "rps_doc_frac_chars_top_3gram": [[0, 1041, 0.03214286]], "rps_doc_frac_chars_top_4gram": [[0, 1041, 0.05]], "rps_doc_frac_all_caps_words": [[0, 1041, 0.01960784]], "rps_doc_frac_lines_end_with_ellipsis": [[0, 1041, 0.16666667]], "rps_doc_frac_no_alph_words": [[0, 1041, 0.16666667]], "rps_doc_frac_unique_words": [[0, 1041, 0.54166667]], "rps_doc_mean_word_length": [[0, 1041, 5.0]], "rps_doc_symbol_to_word_ratio": [[0, 1041, 0.00490196]], "rps_doc_unigram_entropy": [[0, 1041, 4.1588002]], "rps_doc_word_count": [[0, 1041, 168.0]], "rps_lines_ending_with_terminal_punctution_mark": [[0, 41, 1.0], [41, 81, 0.0], [81, 119, 0.0], [119, 267, 1.0], [267, 297, 1.0], [297, 1041, 1.0]], "rps_lines_javascript_counts": [[0, 41, 0.0], [41, 81, 0.0], [81, 119, 0.0], [119, 267, 0.0], [267, 297, 0.0], [297, 1041, 0.0]], "rps_lines_num_words": [[0, 41, 8.0], [41, 81, 4.0], [81, 119, 8.0], [119, 267, 21.0], [267, 297, 5.0], [297, 1041, 122.0]], "rps_lines_numerical_chars_fraction": [[0, 41, 0.0], [41, 81, 0.0], [81, 119, 0.11111111], [119, 267, 0.02857143], [267, 297, 0.0], [297, 1041, 0.0055325]], "rps_lines_start_with_bulletpoint": [[0, 41, 0.0], [41, 81, 0.0], [81, 119, 0.0], [119, 267, 0.0], [267, 297, 0.0], [297, 1041, 0.0]], "rps_lines_uppercase_letter_fraction": [[0, 41, 0.04878049], [41, 81, 0.5], [81, 119, 0.05263158], [119, 267, 0.04054054], [267, 297, 0.03333333], [297, 1041, 0.04032258]], "rps_doc_ml_palm_score": [[0, 1041, 0.31838614]], "rps_doc_ml_wikipedia_score": [[0, 1041, null]], "rps_doc_ml_wikiref_score": [[0, 1041, 0.04738796]], "rps_doc_books_importance": [[0, 1041, -35.52648501]], "rps_doc_openwebtext_importance": [[0, 1041, 9.97402133]], "rps_doc_wikipedia_importance": [[0, 1041, 40.30773891]], "rps_doc_num_sentences": [[0, 1041, 9.0]]} |
1964 Bobby Bland – There Ain’t Nothing You Can Do
Robert Calvin Brooks grew up in a small town in Tennessee. His father left the family when Robert was quite young, and Robert began using his stepfather’s last name instead, and he became known as Bobby Bland.
Bobby’s mother moved the family to Memphis, and he began singing with gospel groups. He also hung out with members of the Beale Streeters, other wannabe musicians. That group included future stars B.B. King, Rosco Gordon, Junior Parker and Johnny Ace.
Ike Turner had Bobby record a song in 1951, but it was never released.
After a hitch in the army, Bobby returned to Memphis and signed with producer Don Robey and Duke Records. Bobby began recording singles for the label in 1955. After a few unsuccessful singles, Don produced Bobby singing Farther Up The Road, a song co-written by Johnny Copeland and Joe Medwick Veasey. Don bought Johnny’s rights to the song and added his own name as co-writer.
The blues single topped the R&B chart in 1957 and peaked at #43 on the Hot 100.
Fifteen more singles reached the R&B top forty over the next five years; eleven of the records reached the R&B top ten. While most of the records also reached the Hot 100, the best he managed on that chart came when the single Turn On Your Love Light reached #28.
Bobby’s most successful single on the pop chart came in 1964. He recorded Ain’t Nothing You Can Do, and the record peaked at #20 on the Hot 100.
While he never reached the top forty on the Hot 100 again, Bobby continued to place hits on the R&B chart through the seventies. He had more than a dozen additional top ten R&B hits from 1965 through 1974. The record of his singles identifies him as one of the all-time top performers on the R&B chart.
Bobby was 83 years-old when he died in 2013.

1972 Yes – Roundabout
Bass player Chris Squire formed the band Mabel Greer’s Toyshop in London in 1967. The owner of a nearby club introduced Chris to Jon Anderson, and the two discovered they shared interests in harmonies and music by Simon and Garfunkel. Drummer Bill Bruford, piano player Tony Kaye, and guitar player Peter Banks joined the pair to form the band Yes.
They released their first album in 1969. Roger Dean designed the covers for most of the group’s early albums, giving them a distinctive look.
The group first breached the US Hot 100 in 1971 with Your Move, the first single from their second album. The song was roughly the first half of the album track I’ve Seen All Good People; the entire song ran over six minutes. The record only reached #40 on the Hot 100.
While touring in a bus in support of the album, the group encountered an endless number of roundabouts (many years before they became common in the US). That bus ride led a stoned Jon to jot down lyrics that eventually turned into the lead song on Fragile, their third album. The album version of Roundabout ran over eight minutes.
They cut that down to three and a half minutes on the single. The single reached #13 on the Hot 100, making it the group’s second most successful single in the US.
The group recorded their next single in 1972 as part of the sessions for Fragile. The song was a cover of Simon and Garfunkel’s album cut, America, from their 1968 album, Bookends.
Yes did not include the full version of the song on any of their albums until years later. The original recording ran over ten minutes. They again cut down the single version, this time to about four minutes. It snuck up to #40 on the Hot 100 and then faded away.
The only way fans could initially listen to the original long version was to buy one of their record company’s sampler albums, The New Age of Atlantic. The record company finally included the complete version of the song on the group’s compilation album Yesterdays in 1975. The song later got added onto the remastered Fragile CD (which is where it belonged).
Even classic rock stations seem to have misplaced their copy of Roundabout and seem much more likely to play their chart-topping single Owner Of A Lonely Heart instead. The single only ran about four minutes, but the video lasted over six minutes thanks to some footage of the group members morphing into animals, a snake, and a bird.
The lineup for the band has changed over the years, with 19 different musicians working in the band full-time. Yes disbanded in 2004 and reformed in 2008.
Yes is still an active group that tours and records music, but the only early members still in the group are Steve Howe and Alan White.

New principal doesn’t fit the mold
Principal Jenni Weipert answers questions during an interview with the Beak ‘n’ Eye newspaper staff.

Caylla Townsley, Editor
Jenni Weipert isn’t what one might imagine the average principal to be. West High’s new head principal has brought new ideas to improve the learning environment. She’s adventurous and driven by goals. She does what’s best for not only herself, but for the entire student body. She’s bold, and that’s what make her different than the rest.
She said one goal is to organize the school day so that students have a supportive learning environment. When visiting West last year, she noticed food wrappers in the hall and students standing in congested hallways talking. Consequently, she and her administrative team prohibited outside food and shortened passing time from five minutes to four minutes. Also, students cannot enter the building before 7:55 a.m. because of the lack of hall supervision.
I want the kids to have a purpose and be proud of this school, themselves and each other.”
— Jenni Weipert
Another goal is to get students to feel together as a whole–even if students play just a small part, she wants it to be some part. “I want to increase the school spirit, student pride, and purpose. I want the kids to have a purpose and be proud of this school, themselves and each other.”
“We are a very diverse community with lots of talent and lots of potential,” she added. “We are very fortunate to have a lot of talented teachers as well, and some pretty unique course offerings. The talent is here, and the knowledge is here. We just have to bring it together a little tighter.”
She said one challenging aspect of being a principal is “having to meet the wants and needs of 2,000 different students.” She says the job requires “making sure you’re doing the right thing at the right time. It’s a pretty intense job.”
When she’s stressed, she’ll go out to classrooms and talk to the students. “I love talking to kids. It makes me feel so much better and makes me feel like what I’m doing is important.”
One of the biggest rewards of her job is “watching kids grow.” She said she wants students to know that “I am here for them, and that my door is always open. We don’t have to agree all the time, but we have to agree to work together.”
Growing up, her family moved around a lot. She attended Smart and West for a short while, and she graduated from San Angelo High School in Angelo, Texas. She described herself as a good academic student, but because she felt bored, “I was challenging” for teachers.
She went to St. Ambrose University and graduated with a bachelor’s degree in education, reading, language arts and social studies. She got her master’s degree at the University of Iowa in administration with a minor in psychology. She also has a special education administration degree. She graduated from both schools at the top of her class.
She started teaching at Wood, and then was the principal at Smart, an associate principal at Central, and principal at Walcott.
At West she leads students in the Pledge of Allegiance to begin each day because it builds a sense of community. Her sense of organization comes from being part of an Army family. Weipert has spent her entire life traveling the world. From the years 1982-86, she lived in Germany with her husband and daughter. While living there, she got to learn things that most people in America take for granted.
“They don’t sell traditional baked goods in Germany, so I started making my own birthday cakes and pastries,” said Weipert. It started off as something fun for her and her daughter to bond over, until it became something she enjoyed and was very good at.
Weipert also got to experience what it was like to be on an all army team for both softball and volleyball while in Germany. If you don’t believe it, she has a mangled finger to prove it. “I love sports, that’s a big part of my life,” she explained. While in Germany she was in a championship game for volleyball. She went up to block a ball and got what she thought was a jam. The coach pulled on her finger to get rid of the jam, only to tear it even more than before. Weipert had no other option though. She got back on the court and finished out the game, helping her team get the victory.
I watch every Iowa Hawkeye game. I’m a huge fan. ”
Another sport that is huge in her life is football. “I watch every Iowa Hawkeye game,” she said. “I’m a huge fan.” She’s also a huge fan of Peyton Manning and is willing to follow whatever team he plays for. “I just love football.”
An activity Weipert does that breaks the stereotype of a woman is weight training. She has been lifting weights for over 20 years. It plays a huge role in her life.
Sometimes while running on her treadmill she likes to read. “I read everything from Moby Dick and Edgar Allen Poe to romance novels and mysteries,” Weipert explained. She likes being able to mix two of her favorite things together, reading and working out.
“I like to go on walks, ride my bike, and go on motorcycle rides. Any kind of outdoor activity,” she said. “I like to dabble in pretty much anything.”
She said she loves the high school level because there is so much going on, such as sports, activities and clubs. “All the excitement of high school is just fun to be around. That’s what makes the job worth it everyday.”

From Power Wheelchairs to Prosthetic Hands — the Gear That’s Changing Lives

It was a summer day in 2012 when Bob Richey’s life was changed forever. He was a new college grad, having fun with friends at the beach. Like he’d done so many times before, Richey dove into the surf — but this time, something was off. He broke two vertebrae in his neck and ended up paralyzed from the chest down.
Since then, he’s been using a power wheelchair, which allows him to get around, work as a software engineer, even drive a custom van.
When medical equipment is an absolute necessity — the only way someone can keep going, literally and figuratively — it takes on an outsized role. It must fit right and work right, be accessible and affordable — or the consequences can be grave.
On this episode, we look at the medical gear that’s changing — and even saving — lives. We hear stories about how the ice bucket challenge changed life for people with ALS, the growing role prosthetists are playing in patients’ lives, and the medical device that alerted the bomb squad at the airport.
Also heard on this week’s episode:
Remember the robotic hand that Luke Skywalker gets at the end of “The Empire Strikes Back”? Today, we’re closer than ever to making that kind of prosthesis a reality. We get a glimpse at one such model — The Michelangelo — and what it’s taken for Brian Simms to make it work for him.
Amputees rely on clinics to fit them with prostheses. What happens when a manufacturer owns the clinic?

The Beautiful Music All Around Us: Field Recordings and the American Experience
In the 1930s and 1940s, the Library of Congress commissioned audio recordings of amateur singers and songwriters throughout the United States. These have come to be called "field recordings," and the recordists travelled the country in search of them. Musician, recording artist, and writer Stephen Wade tells the story of thirteen of these recordings made across the United States between 1934 and 1942 in locations reaching from Southern Appalachia to the Mississippi Delta and the Great Plains. Working 18 years on this project, Wade travelled the country, seeking out the original artists, their families or friends present at the recordings and interviewed more than 200 people for the book. Most of the original artists were amateur singers or musicians who were being recorded for the first and only time; many of their famililes were not even aware that the recordings were made. And yet many of the songs have enjoyed long afterlives, influencing musicians and featuring in films.
Stephen Wade is a musician and writer whose latest album is Banjo Diary: Lessons from Tradition, out on Smithsonian Folkways Records.

‘I want to do it right the first time’: Downtown councillor wants city to rescind support for drug consumption site location
Construction of a Consumption and Treatment Site (CTS) in Windsor is humming along — with a targeted opening of March for what’s being called “SafePoint.”
But at the eleventh hour, the city councillor for downtown wants his colleagues to consider a site different than the one narrowly approved by a previous council in 2022, at 101 Wyandotte St. E.
“I am in full support of a Consumption and Treatment site. But I want to do it right the first time. And I think that we still have an opportunity to do something better for the community,” said Ward 3 coun. Renaldo Agostino.
The process to open a Consumption and Treatment Site started in 2017, led by the Windsor-Essex County Health Unit, in consultation with community partners. It’s meant to be a safe space to use drugs under supervision and reduce harm and overdoses.
Agostino will bring a notice of motion to council Monday, Jan. 30 asking council to rescind support of the Wyandotte Street location.
Agostino said people have questioned the timing, but points out that he campaigned on the idea of moving it after hearing the concerns of residents and business owners about the impact of a “safe injection site” at that location.
“I'm going to do better I work harder and I want everyone else to do just as much as I can do to get this, not right to get it, but perfect,” he said.
Agostino is suggesting a better location could be tied into the new Homelessness and Housing Help Hub (H4). The city is in the process of identifying potential locations for that hub through an expression of interest, which was issued Thursday.
If council approves the motion to rescind support, Agostino wants the city and health unit to meet to talk both short and long-term solutions.
“Ideally we live in a world where we don't need it at all, but we do need it, we know it works,” said Bob Cameron, the executive director of the Downtown Windsor Community Collaborative. “There is no perfect site. This is a very, very good site.”
Cameron — who was part of a grassroots movement advocating for a CTS — fears if the motion is approved by council, this will cause an extended delay in providing the service.
“If it's connected in with the city's concern about redeveloping an H4 at a new site for that, we know that’s a few years down the road,” Cameron said. “To delay it that long, I don't know how many lives would be impacted.”
Brandon Bailey has long advocated for a safe consumption site.
“Trying to push it backwards is just gonna cause more people to die. It's really that simple,” Bailey said, noting the numbers don’t lie: A record 86 people died in 2021 from drug overdose.
“Please stop trying to stall things,” he said. “I'm sick and tired of burying of everybody I know.”
Neither the province nor the federal government has given final approval for the site, according to the Windsor and Essex County Health Unit (WECHU).
WECHU issued a statement about the notice of motion, saying there has been four years of “extensive consultation” involved in selecting the proposed location.
“The WECHU is aware of the notice of motion put forth regarding city council’s support of the SafePoint consumption service located at 101 Wyandotte Street East. Extensive consultation on the site spanned over four years and involved over 3,000 interactions with neighborhood residents, businesses, and stakeholders, including a series of Town Hall meetings which took place this week,” the statement read. “We welcome members of our community as well as our media partners to review details of these consultations at www.wecoss.ca/cts. We look forward to continuing the education process for our elected officials and members of the public related to this important service.”
Agostino says in the short term, a mobile bus could serve the need.
“I want to get it right the first time. So I understand that there's going to be a delay. I get it,” he said.
A majority of council must approve the motion Monday in order to rescind the city’s support.
FULL NOTICE OF MOTION
The following Notice of Motion will be presented at the Monday, January 30, 2023 meeting of Windsor City Council:
Moved by Councillor Renaldo Agostino, seconded by Councillor _________________
Whereas a previous City Council approved a location for a safe injection site at 101 Wyandotte Street East;
Whereas the approved site was put forward quickly after the Windsor Essex County Health Unit failed to secure a lease at another location - 628 Goyeau Street;
Whereas consultation for the Wyandotte Street location was considered problematic by many affected residents and businesses in the surrounding area;
Whereas there is ongoing and significant concern about the impact of a safe injection site at the Wyandotte Street location;
Whereas the Wyandotte Street location is directly across the street from a McDonald’s Restaurant, and a major hotel and other businesses, AND the entrance/exit of the Windsor-Detroit Tunnel;
Whereas many other options exist to provide safe injection services in the city that will better balance the needs of users, business owners, and residents;
Therefore be it resolved that City Council rescind its support for the past Council decision to approve a safe injection site at 101 Wyandotte Street East and that notification be sent immediately to the Windsor Essex County Health Unit, Government of Canada and Government of Ontario.
Therefore be it also resolved, the City Council request Administration work with the Windsor Essex County Health Unit and report back on alternative short-term and long-term options including mobile service delivery and inclusion in the permanent Housing and Homeless Help Hub.

How To Become A Firefighter
December 21, 2019 Word Weight Leave a comment
With the advent of all the “HERO” movies, TV shows and documentaries on television and the silver screen, there is no wonder there has bee a big rush for applicants and articles on How to Become a Firefighter, and not just in the states but almost every country worldwide.
I will admit being one of those who always wanted to one but not due to what I saw on TV or the silver screen but since the day I visited my local fire departments and sat down with the fire chief and he gave me a break down of it all.
From the glamour, the extreme training, the camaraderie, the studying the feeling of utter joy when you save someones life in an accident to bringing out someone alive out of a building but also the bad things like losing your first patient, your first partner or colleague getting too late to save an animal or even crying your heart out when you watch a family member staring at a burn tent where a family member hangs on for dear life and losing the battle.
This is all you have to consider before you want to consider this calling in life, and I was willing, but unfortunately, because of my health and eyesight, I never qualified.
How to Become a Firefighter one the most important thing to remember is, like nursing, police officers, traffic officers, soldiers, and paramedics, it is not a job, IT IS VOCATION, A CALLING.
If one of your first questions is, “HOW MUCH DOES IT PAY, or, WHAT IS MY HOURS AND LEAVE AVAILABLE” then don’t even drop your bag.
Take your bag there and there, turn around and go home, this is not for you.
Going beyond the call of duty, or as they say that extra mile, must not even be in your vocabulary, it must be you without even thinking it.
You must be able to work hard, continuously.
You must always obey orders, not learn, but it must be part of you, ALWAYS.
You must keep striving to be the best, physically and mentally.
You mustn’t be afraid to speak about your emotions if you lose someone, but on your own time and not while on duty, as others might still need you.
You must be in peak fitness and strive to be even better.
You must be a team player and have your teams back as they will have yours, as that is the difference between life and death.
You must learn, study, practice, exercise and repeat even off duty.

The Russian Defense Ministry showed footage of the Su-34 aircraft and the Kh-29 missile mounted on it. The Kh-29 high-precision air-to-surface missile was put into service in 1980, despite its age, foreign military experts consider it one of the "most successful Russian missiles." The Kh-29 missile is designed to destroy fortified targets and is capable of penetrating about 1 meter of concrete covered with 3 meters of soil. When hitting the runway of the airfield, the rocket leaves a funnel with a diameter of 15 meters and a depth of about 6 meters. The probable deviation of the missile from the target is two meters, which allows it to be aimed even at windows. The estimated price of the X-29 missile is about 300 thousand dollars, the data is based on a lawsuit filed by the Russian Ministry of Defense against several servicemen in case of accidental damage to missiles. The missile is produced with a laser and television homing head, the video shows the Kh-29T missile. The maximum missile launch range is from 8 to 30 kilometers, the altitude of use is from 200 meters to 5 kilometers, depending on the modification. The mass of the warhead is 317 kilograms.
The Russian Tu-95MS performed planned flights and worked out the elements of piloting techniques during refueling Tu-95MS in the air, including in adverse weather conditions. Serial production of Tu-95MS strategic bombers continued until the beginning of 1992. They still remain in service as carriers of cruise missiles, including such as the Kh-101. Thanks to lower fuel consumption than jet aircraft, and most importantly, greater stealth from SBIRS satellites, which are able to observe large jet-powered strategic bombers by their exhausts.
The Russian Ministry of Defense showed the work of calculating a mobile radio relay station of the R-416GM series, consisting of several types of vehicles.

West Virginia Governor Jim Justice announced today that the state has reached an agreement with Maryland to continue the Maryland Area Regional Commuter Train service to the Eastern Panhandle.
Justice made the announcement while visiting the Martinsburg Railway Station—the westernmost terminal of the MARC Train system—and joined other state and local government leaders who helped secure the $3.4 million requested by the Maryland Transit Administration to continue service in West Virginia for the next year.
“I am grateful beyond belief to all who had a hand in pooling together the funding that we needed to keep this vital connection between our state and Washington, D.C., alive,” Justice said.
“Hundreds of West Virginians and several businesses use this important service every day, and I’m fully committed to keeping it running in our state for many years to come.”
Municipal leaders from the Eastern Panhandle communities of Ranson, Bolivar, Charles Town, Martinsburg, Harpers Ferry, and Shepherdstown helped support the effort along the Jefferson County Commission and the Berkeley County Council.
The governor and his chief-of-staff, Mike Hall, worked alongside the West Virginia Legislature and the West Virginia State Auditor’s Office to secure funding for the initiative.
Justice and other West Virginia leaders are in ongoing contract negotiations with the MTA to reach a multi-year agreement.
“My administration is committed to finding a permanent funding solution,” Justice said. “We realize that our Eastern Panhandle is an economic driver in our state and the MARC Train is a big part of that.”
The Governor has also directed Tourism Commissioner Chelsea Ruby to research and pursue increasing tourism-related MARC Train ridership in West Virginia.
B&O Roundhouse remarkable railroading landmark
The setting sun casts a ruddy light on the B&O Roundhouse at Martinsburg, West Virginia.
Widely considered one of the most important railroading landmarks in the U.S., the Baltimore & Ohio Railroad complex at Martinsburg exemplifies the form-follows-function principle of building design. It's beautiful. It's practical. And it's one of the most important historic buildings in West Virginia, a virtual cathedral of industry. Read the full story here.

Von Willebrand disease (VWD) is an inheritable bleeding disorder. Many different proteins are needed to make a person’s blood clot successfully. People with VWD are either missing or low in the clotting protein von Willebrand factor (VWF) – or it doesn’t work as it’s supposed to. For a person to make a successful clot, VWF binds to factor VIII (8), another clotting protein, and platelets in blood vessel walls. This process will help form a platelet plug during the clotting process. People with VWD are not able to form this platelet plug, or it will take longer to form. The condition is named after Finnish physician Erik von Willebrand, who first described it in the 1920s.
VWD is the most common bleeding disorder, affecting up to 1% of the US population – or approximately 1 in every 100 people. It occurs equally in men and women. However, women may be more symptomatic due to heavy menstrual bleeding (periods). VWD occurs equally across all races and ethnicities.
The guidelines for VWD were updated in 2021. Click here to read the guidelines in full, or scroll to the bottom of this page for more information.
The main symptoms of VWD are:
Frequent (more than 5 a year) nosebleeds that last longer than 10 minutes
Bleeding from cuts or injuries that lasts longer than 10 minutes
Bruising easily, with bruises that are raised and larger than a quarter
Being told you are “low in iron” or have been treated for anemia.
Heavy bleeding after any surgery including dental surgery
Having someone in your family who has one or more of these symptoms
Have someone in your family who has been diagnosed with a bleeding disorder such as von Willebrand disease or hemophilia.
For women, girls and those who menstruate:
Heavy periods, also called heavy menstrual bleeding, (having to change one pad or tampon every hour) or periods that last longer than 7 days
Heavy bleeding after childbirth or miscarriage
There are three main types of VWD based on qualitative or quantitative defects in VWF. A fourth type, acquired VWD, is not hereditary.
Type 1 VWD is found in 60%-80% of patients. People with type 1 VWD have a quantitative deficiency of VWF. Levels of VWF in the blood range from 20%-50% of normal. The symptoms are usually mild.
Type 2 VWD is found in 15%-30% of patients. People with type 2 VWD have a qualitative deficiency in their VWF. Type 2 is broken down into four subtypes: type 2A, type 2B, type 2M and type 2N, depending on the presence and behavior of multimers, molecular chains of VWF. Symptoms are mild to moderate.
Type 3 VWD is found in 5%-10% of patients. People with type 3 VWD have a quantitative deficiency of VWF. Symptoms are typically severe, and include spontaneous bleeding episodes, often into their joints and muscles.
Acquired VWD. This type of VWD in adults results after a diagnosis of an autoimmune disease, such as lupus, or from heart disease or some types of cancer. It can also occur after taking certain medications.
Find Out if You have Symptoms of VWD
A combination of blood tests are used to diagnose VWD, including a VWF antigen test, which measures the amount of VWF in the blood, tests that measure clotting time and ability to form a clot, and tests measuring platelet function. Some of these tests may have to be repeated, because the levels of VWF can change due to stress, exercise, the use of birth control pills, pregnancy, and hyperthyroidism. People with VWD usually have less than 50% of normal VWF in their blood. After a diagnosis of VWD is discovered, an additional is given to determine the type. The best place for patients with bleeding disorders to be diagnosed and treated is at one of the federally funded hemophilia treatment centers (HTCs) that are spread throughout the country. HTCs provide comprehensive care from skilled hematologists and other professional staff, including nurses, physical therapists, social workers and sometimes dentists, dieticians and other healthcare providers. In addition, HTCs often have specialized labs that can run more accurate VWD testing.
Treatment for VWD depends on the diagnosis and severity. Some bleeds are mild enough not to require treatment at all.
The most common treatment for VWD is DDAVP (desmopressin acetate), which stimulates the release of VWF from cells. This also increases the level of FVIII (factor 8). DDAVP comes in two forms:
Injectable DDVAP: This is injected into a vein or just under the skin, and is used to treat milder forms of VWD, usually type 1.
Nasal spray: This high-dose nasal spray is used to treat milder forms of VWD, usually type 1.
NOTE: Stimate, the DDAVP nasal spray, was subject to a recall in September 2020. Ferring Pharmecuticals, the company that makes Stimate, does not anticipate resupplying Stimate until 2022. Read more about this recall here.
It is important to know that DDAVP is an antidiuretic, which means it causes the body to retain water. Because of this, it’s important to restrict fluids so you don’t develop a condition known as hyponatremia, reduced sodium in the bloodstream.
More severe forms of VWD are treated with factor replacement therapy, which are either plasma-derived (made from human blood products) or recombinant (synthetic). These clotting factor products are rich in VWF and factor VIII (factor 8). Clotting factor products are injected into a vein in the arm to replace the missing factor in the blood. They may also be used to treat mild VWD in people who do not respond to DDVAP.
Hormone therapy, such as birth control pills, or oral contraceptives, can be taken to reduce heavy menstrual bleeding. The hormones in birth control pills can increase the levels of VWF and factor VIII (factor 8) in the blood.
Aminocaproic acid and tranexamic acid prevent the breakdown of blood clots. These drugs are often recommended before dental procedures, to treat nose and mouth bleeds, and for heavy menstrual bleeding. Antifibrinolytics are taken by mouth, as a tablet or liquid. MASAC recommends that a dose of clotting factor be taken first to form a clot, then aminocaproic acid, to preserve the clot and keep it from being prematurely broken down.

Updated VWD Guidelines
Updated VWD Guidelines for the diagnosis and management of von Willebrand disease were released in January 2021. These updated guidelines are the result of a collaborative effort between the American Society of Hematology (ASH), the International Society on Thrombosis and Hemostatsis (ISTH), the National Hemophilia Foundation (NHF), and the World Federation for Hemophilia (WFH). The following one-page snapshots offer a summary of these guidelines and will provide you with the most important and up-to-date information.

Yes, a few books feature the 281st, mostly from the SF community, as Thomas A. Ross's “Privileges of War” describing an episode at an A Team camp in the mountainous reaches of South Vietnam.
But now, at least three books have 281st members as author. Al Rampone wrote “Silent Birdmen” many years ago about a few battles in the spring of '67 and the personal adventures of a few us. Find his book occasionally available on Amazon.com. See our history section, publications page for other historical items.

Our two extraordinary scribes have finished the final book covering the extraordinary stories of the Intruders during their quest to become the first, and the best, Special Operations Helicopter Company in Vietnam.
$20 each.
Our book team of authors and story tellers has completed the Wolf Pack book.
Hello Intruders, you probably have heard during the previous two years that there was a new book in the works. Well, he has done it again! Our resident author, Will McCollum has published a new Intruder book. This one titled; "More Than A Name On The Wall", a compilation with photos and detailed information concerning our brothers lost in Vietnam.
The cover, by our own Joan Baker, is outstanding and more than worth the price of the book.
Will personally financed the production of the book and turned it over to Jay Hayes for sale through our PX, with the understanding that all proceeds from the sale of the book will go to the Intruder Scholarship Fund. Will and Jay have made provisions for copies of the book to be given, at no cost, to the families of the Intruders listed in the book.
More Than a Name on the Wall is a wonderful tribute to our 281st MIA/KIAs and their families. This is a book we all will want to add to our collections.
Regards to all, Bain
I was asked to proofread this book, "More Than a Name on The Wall." Every Intruder should have several for family members, especially for grandchildren, as the book is an awesome reminder of what it means to give your all. Containing significant stories about the bravery of our men.
Rat Pack Crew Chief
In 2015, a project long in the making will make our story available to the public resulted in Will McCollum's compilation of our individual and collective stories.
$15 each. As of this writing, it is not the book by the same title on Amazon.com.
"As a family member waiting at home while my husband served as a pilot in Viet Nam, we really never knew what the guys were doing on a daily basis. The news we received from the media was dismal and letters home were somewhat short. Thanks to the 28lst AHC and this wonderful book, we will now know. The camraderie and professionalism that all the guys practiced on a daily basis was very special and comes through on each person's submission--from maintenance to crew chiefs to operations to pilots, etc. All had a job to do and they did it well. This book is a must read for families of those who served." -- Karen Forcht
"During the past few weeks I have had the privilege of proofreading “Above the Best”. Having been familiar with stories of the beginning year with the 281st in Viet Nam, it was fascinating to read the stories of the men who followed. The stories came from the heart and were told as they were experienced by the men, which is a gift they have chosen to share. The emotions and fears expressed by the men were shared by the wives and families left behind. This is truly an accounting of events that will be read and remembered." -- Linda Lerda
Will McCollum's book "Above The Best" covering the life and times of the men who served in the unit remains available in the association PX.
Tom Ross, a great friend of the 281st AHC and author of the book “Privileges of War”, has prepared two YouTube videos to help us promote the sale of our book “Above the Best”. We have short and long versions of the videos. The long video contains live CBS news footage of the 281st in action in the Valley of the Tiger. If interested in purchasing a copy of our story, “Above the Best”, please click on the links below to watch the videos.
