News of the death of Robert E. Lee, beloved chieftain of the Southern army, whose strategy mainly was responsible for the surprising fight staged by the Confederacy, brought a two-day halt to Richmond's business activities. unquote
The United States flag, which Robert E. Lee had defended as a soldier, flew at half mast in Lexington, Virginia and throughout the USA.
General Lee died at his home at Lexington, Virginia at 9:30 AM on Wednesday, October 12, 1870. His last great deed came after the War Between the States when he accepted the presidency of Washington College, now Washington and Lee University. He saved the financially troubled college and helped many young folks further their education.
Some write that Robert E. Lee suffered a cerebral hemorrhage on September 28, 1870, but was thought to greatly improve until October 12th, when he took a turn for the worse. His condition seemed more hopeless when his doctor told him, "General you must make haste and get well---Traveller---has been standing too long in his stable and needs exercise."
Virginia Military Institute (VMI) Cadet William Nalle said in a letter home to his mother, dated October 16, 1870, quote;
I suppose of course that you have all read full accounts of Gen Lee's death in the papers. He died on the morning of the 12th at about half past nine. All business was suspended at once all over the country and town, and all duties, military and academic suspended at the Institute, and all the black crape and all similar black material in Lexington, was used up at once, and they had to send on to Lynchburg for more. Every cadet had black crape issued to him, and an order was published at once requiring us to wear it as a badge of mourning for six months. unquote
Read entire letter on Virginia Military Institute website at:
The rains and flooding were the worse of Virginia's history on the day General Lee died. On Wednesday, October 12, 1870, in the presence of his family, Lee quietly passed away.
The church bells rang as the sad news passed through Washington College, Virginia Military Institute, the town of Lexington and the nation. Cadets from VMI College carried the remains of the old soldier to Lee Chapel where he laid in state.
Memorial meetings were held throughout the South and as far North as New York. At Washington College in Lexington eulogies were delivered by: Reverend Pemberton, Reverend W.S. White--Stonewall Jackson's Pastor and Reverend J. William Jones. Former Confederate President Jefferson Davis brought the eulogy in Richmond, Virginia. Lee was also eulogized in Great Britain.
When all settled down, Mrs. Robert E. Lee said, "If he had succeeded in gaining by the sword all the South expected and hoped for, he could not have been more honored and lamented."
Many thousands witnessed Lee's funeral procession marching through the town of Lexington, Virginia, with muffled drums and the artillery firing as the hearse was driven to the school's chapel where he was buried.
US President Dwight D. Eisenhower knew and appreciated our nations rich history. President Eisenhower was criticized for displaying a portrait of Robert E. Lee in his office. This was part of his response; quote "Robert E. Lee was, in my estimation, one of the supremely gifted men produced by this nation." unquote
Robert E. Lee was the hero of the Southern people and admired both North and South of the Mason-Dixon Line. This Christian- gentleman's last words were, "Strike the Tent."
There will be a Remembering Robert E. Lee Program at Lee Chapel on Monday, October 12, 2009. For details go to:
RIP. Too bad the nation had to come to blows. Hope we never have another civil war.
It would be wonderful if all people behaved like him. I guess that is asking for too much.
R.E. Lee was born too late. He should have been one of the founding fathers.
A noble man in an unfortunate time.
Also one of the greatest Americans ever.
“Do your duty in all things;
You can not do more;
You should never wish to do less.”
~Robert Edward Lee
Lee was a fine man and probably the best military mind of his age. It is hard to respect the man judging him from today’s standards. I understand his desire not to take up arms against his own state, Virginia. However, he volunteered to lead the forces against the US in violation of his oath to uphold the US Constitution. Hard to justify.
I doubt that he understood his acts to be in violation of the Constitution. While he understood his cause was lost, it’s likely he believed he was acting in support of the Constitution, and it’s certain he was acting as he saw his duty. That’s not hard to support in any age.
I guess it all depends on how you would view an oath to the Constitution if secession voids that document. Other Virginians like George H. Thomas took the opposite view & stayed with the Union forces thought they were greatly reviled for doing so.
Great man and a patriot (back ten, states’s rights were assumed to be a valid political theory)-but what was he thinking at Gettysburgh?
Honor and duty in Lee’s age were paramount. So I agree that he believed he was doing his duty. He knew, by resiging his commission and taking up arms against the US, however violated his oath.
I believe he did, based on a letter he wrote to his son in January 1861. However he made the decision to go with his state and he never wavered. You have to respect him for that.
Your comment on Ike is so true, so very true.
Ironic that a man who hated war probably extended the Civil War for years because of his military genius and capacity for leadership. If he had accepted Lincoln’s offer to command the Union forces the war would have been over the first year.
At Gettysburg, he did not know what he faced. The calvary was not available to him to report where the Union Army was and which portions he faced. There were also two new corps under new corps commanders.
And ironic that a general, US Grant, that hated blood-shed defeated him by not backing down from horrible lose of live through out 1864.
I didn’t post about Lee; I posted about DDE.
“(back ten, statess rights were assumed to be a valid political theory)”
According to the Constitution it still is.
Elitist, statist, Democrats and other liberals have been working hard to eradicate it but the individual rights of soverign states is still in the Constitution for all to read.

According to documents released by the FBI regarding their questioning of Hillary Clinton, it is fairly obvious that she wanted the FBI to believe she was too overwhelmed by the details of her work as Secretary of State to be held accountable for the consequences of her actions. The reason for her inability to properly conduct the affairs of state on behalf of the United States, we are supposed to believe, was a fall in her home in December of 2012.
She presents the case that the threats to national security and violations of federal law that occurred as a result of her reckless endangerment, careless handling and violations of procedures were not her fault, nor are the discrepancies in her accounting for her actions. They weren’t really lies; they were her best recollection or non-recollection as impacted by an unexpected impairment that resulted from the concussion and subsequent brain injury she sustained in her December fall.
Clinton claimed in her July 2nd FBI interview and continues to claim to this date that she was unable to remember much of the events of her entire tenure as Secretary of State due to the brain damage she sustained in the fall and its complications. The lingering effects, she would have the FBI and the American people believe, prevent her from remembering and thereby make it impossible for her to offer an explanation as to what motivated her actions.
She told FBI investigators she was still incapacitated to a significant degree by that event, that she could not and still cannot answer 26 important questions related to their investigation.
While she is incapable of remembering major events that took place during her term as Secretary of State, including some as basic as whether or not she and her staff received the briefing on the proper handling of classified materials, Clinton wants to assure us that she is simultaneously fully capable of handling the more difficult job of being president of the United States.
She was not able to and evidence indicates had no desire to, responsibly conduct the business of the State Department even before she was injured. Her focus appeared, from information that is being uncovered by released emails, to have been upon making money selling access and influence. Those are the kind of things she’d probably want to be able to claim she forgot as part of an investigation into her criminal wrong-doing.
The problem for Mrs. Clinton is that she cannot make those claims without simultaneously disqualifying herself from being able to perform the duties of the office of President of the United States. If she’s not able to do the lesser job due to a physical condition that still exists, she has no business running for president.
If she’s not physically impaired then she lied to the FBI in addition to committing numerous other offenses and is likewise disqualified from seeking the office. Either way, the release of the documents should be sufficient to warrant Clinton’s dropping out of the race or her removal by the DNC. The problem is that being able to govern is not a concern of the Democrats; being able to become president is. As long as she can pull that one off, they couldn’t care less about her ability to actually do the job.
It’s up to her opposition, specifically Mr. Trump, to eliminate her as a candidate, using the information that Mrs. Clinton continues to begrudgingly provide through subpoenas, court orders and FOIA requests.
Mrs. Clinton claimed she was unable to remember the following:
- When she received security clearance
- Being briefed on how to handle classified material
- How many times she used her authority to designate items classified
- Any briefing on how to handle very top-secret “Special Access Program” material
- How to select a target for a drone strike
- How the data from her mobile devices was destroyed when she switched devices
- The number of times her staff was given a secure phone
- Why she didn’t get a secure Blackberry
- Receiving any emails she thought should not be on the private system
- Did not remember giving staff direction to create private email account
- Getting guidance from state on email policy
- Who had access to her Blackberry account
- The process for deleting her emails
- Ever getting a message that her storage was almost full
- Anyone besides Huma Abedin being offered an account on the private server

Demographics in an alpine reindeer herd: effects of density and winter weather
We examined how population density, winter weather, snow conditions, and 2 large-scale climatic indices (North Atlantic Oscillation, NAO, and Arctic Oscillation, AO) influenced demography (reproduction and mortality) in an alpine herd of semi-domesticated reindeer Rangifer tarandus between 1959 and 2000 in Finnish Lapland. The herd lived on heavily grazed lichen pastures, with winter densities between 0.8 and 3.9 individuals km−2. Icing conditions occurred every 7th yr, on an average, and decreased reproductive rate (calves/females) by 49%. In general linear models icing remarkably increased the fit of snow models to reproductive rate. Incorporation of an interaction term between icing and the snow depth index provided better fit than a model without interaction. Delayed snowmelt decreased reproductive rate. For the day of snowmelt, however, the model without interaction was better than the interaction model. These 3 models provided the best fit to the data and accounted for 51–54% of the variation in reproductive rate. Winter mortality was related to density and large-scale climatic indices, but not to local winter weather except a slight increase in mortality during an icing winter. The best model for winter mortality, including reindeer density and NAO, accounted for 26% of variation in mortality. Three factors may be involved explaining weak density dependence or the lack of such dependence; climate change scenarios that predict higher winter temperature, more frequent thawing-freezing periods, and deeper snow would be expected to decrease reproductive rate and increase winter mortality of reindeer and thus to reduce profitability of reindeer husbandry. In contrast, early springs would be advantageous for reindeer in the short term.

Two weeks after giving free hugs on the streets of Nanjing Road, over 150 expats gathered in Shanghai’s Qingpu district to donate blood, China Daily reports.
This month, over 40 foreigners walked around Nanjing East Road giving out free hugs to all who passed by. They held up placards which read ‘FREE HUGS: 帮助不能等待’ (help cannot wait), encouraging more people to get involved in donating blood.
On May 27, the Shanghai Blood Administration, co-sponsored by the Shanghai Encore Troupe ‘Love Without Borders’ held another blood drive in Shanghai’s Oriental Land, where over 150 foreigners flocked to continue spreading the word and donate blood.
In terms of blood donations, the most desirable blood types are Type A, Type O, AB-negative and RH-negative, all of which much more commonly found among foreign residents. For example, only 0.3% of Chinese residents have an RH-negative blood type. It’s not rare to see pleas for rare blood transfusions in China, in February 2011 ten expats in Shanghai donated AB-negative blood to an ageing charity worker, and in June 2011 a Liaoning worker put out a call for RH-negative AB blood for his wife. Back in 2007, Beijing was also looking for RH negative blood in preparation for the Olympic games.
“Shanghai has seen a growing number of foreign volunteers become blood donors, which has helped meet the city’s demand for rare blood types,” said Zhu Yueguo, director of the Shanghai Blood Administration Office. Zhu said that each year, about 1,300 foreigners donate blood in the city.
The Shanghai Blood Administration Office and Love Without Borders also premiered an original musical drama, named ‘I Will Be With You’, which is designed to encourage young people to participate in blood donations. Seems like a much better idea than incentivising blood donations by offering students better grades.

OVERFLOWING with gratitude. Members of the Davis community had the chance to hear the Lieutenant Governor Matt Pinnell speak about the tourism industry in Oklahoma and hear his insight into last year’s $10.2 billion dollar money maker for the state. The Lt. Governor toured Turner Falls and Cross Bar OffRoad Park after the meeting.
By Alisha Thompson
Last year was the best year for the state of Oklahoma’s tourism industry with $10.2 billion coming into the state from it’s third largest money maker. While Lt. Governor Matt Pinnell credits the stellar year in part to the state not shutting down for Covid and not telling “a momma bear that she can’t take her four cubs for a walk in the woods” (a joke about not closing state parks) he knows that Oklahoma has unique offerings for tourists.
Executive Director of the Davis Chamber of Commerce Brandy Baldwin opened the meeting by saying “The chamber’s primary mission is to organize and conduct activities that generate a direct economic benefit to its membership and maintain improve the quality of life in the community. Tourism is the huge part of that venture for us. With amazing natural resources and wildly recognized businesses like Turner Falls, Cross Bar Off Road Park, Deer Creek Outdoors and Arbuckle Fried Pies.” She continued with. “Our area is a hot spot throughout the summer season. With several additions and improvements over the years and more on the way. Our region promises to continue to being a mere destination location.”
The state of Oklahoma offers a unique perspective for tourist with its native heritage, outdoor destinations and National Cowboy and Western Heritage Museum. “Every Lt. Governor is the chairman of the Tourism Commission. It’s in the State Statute. When I got elected I asked the Governor to be the Secretary of Tourism and I’m the first person to ever hold that role,” said the Lt. Governor. “That’s something he didn’t have to do and I give him props for that.
He said over the last five years, he’s been tenacious about seeing small businesses grow in the state and build the tourism industry. “Our tourism industry is one of the most natural strengths of our state,” said the Lt. Governor. “All I ask is that the budget to promote our state isn’t reduced.”
Davis is on the Oklahoma Fishing Trail. For every dollar spent promoting the Oklahoma Fishing Trail $98 is returned by someone fishing in Oklahoma. For every dollar spent from advertising dollars spent advertising the state of Oklahoma $7 are spent in our state by someone visiting.
The Lt. Governor knows Davis needs help promoting Turner Falls and Cross Bar Offroad Park. He suggested a marketing campaign. He suggested working with Sulphur, Ardmore and the Chickasaw Nation on marketing strategies similar to what Stillwater and McCurtain County are doing.
He also suggested looking into the working toward opening a youth sports complex. Big enough to host traveling sports for multiple games and towns. “Traveling sports are recession proof,” said the Lt. Governor. “At the end of the day it’s about quality of life and it’s about sales.”
After the lunch the Lt. Governor hopped on a tour bus and toured Turner Falls learning about updates with the park. He offered suggestions and gave information for upgrades and updates. After that tour he jumped in a jeep with Cross Bar Offroad Park Manager Justin Ramsey for a tour of the Park.
The Lt. Governor said that his family enjoys this area and rented RVs while campaigning here. He reminded those in attendance to call his office and ask for brainstorming and white boarding sessions for tourism and economic growth sessions. He said he feels so much more useful in person than in a group setting that behind a desk in Oklahoma City.

Two explosions occurred outside Kabul airport, officials said, amid the evacuation of thousands of people from Western countries.
British defense sources said that one of the explosions occurred in a hotel where British soldiers and journalists were staying, followed by small arms fire, while the second explosion occurred in Abbey Gate.
The Pentagon press secretary said the attack resulted in “a number of American and civilian casualties” but the exact number remains unclear.
Taliban officials said at least 13 people were killed, including children.
The Associated Press quoted eyewitnesses as saying they had seen several people apparently killed or injured.
The White House said President Joe Biden was briefed on the blast.
A spokesperson for No. 10 confirmed that Prime Minister Boris Johnson had been briefed on the situation at the airport in Kabul and said he would chair the Cobra meeting later in the afternoon.
Stewart Ramsay, chief correspondent for Sky News, said that his sources told him that the explosion was caused by a suicide bomber who blew himself up in one of the channels.
He added: “We are not sure of the number of casualties, we must assume a number of civilians, but the initial reports suggest that US soldiers were injured, not British soldiers, but American soldiers.”
“It was very clear that it was a very dangerous place because of the numbers of people going through, and the fact that there were no real checks on what people were carrying or wearing to get into this canal area.”
Ramsay said the attack was “not inside the airport itself, but on the wall around the airport, a road that leads to the processing area that the British initially set up”.
The blast followed warnings earlier in the day that a “very deadly” terrorist attack at the airport could take place within hours.
Following the explosion near Kabul airport, the Defense Ministry tweeted: “We are working urgently to determine what happened in Kabul and its impact on the ongoing evacuation efforts.
“Our primary concern remains the safety of our personnel, British nationals and the citizens of Afghanistan. We are in close contact with the United States and our other NATO allies at the operational level regarding the immediate response to this incident.”
Deborah Haynes, Sky News’ foreign affairs editor, said she had previously spoken to an Afghan interpreter who was waiting outside Kabul airport with his three-month-old daughter, three-year-old son and his wife.
He was waiting five days to be processed and had all the correct documents.
Since the explosion, Haynes has been unable to contact him.
She says he told her he was willing to risk his life and that of his family in their desperation to get out of Afghanistan.
Welden’s party MP Nusrat Ghani said on Twitter that she was on the phone with “an Afghan outside the airport when he heard the explosion”.
She added, “We pray to God that he departs safely and that his family come out of this nightmare safely.”
Shadow Secretary of State Lisa Nandy described the incident as a “horrific and cowardly attack on those already fleeing unimaginable horrors”.
Devastating reports from Kabul. This is a horrific and cowardly attack on those who have already fled from unimaginable horrors.
My thoughts are with the Afghan people and the British, American and international staff who stayed behind to save as many lives as possible. https://t.co/9r8yJJTQOy
– Lisa Nandy (@lisanandy) August 26, 2021
“My thoughts are with the Afghan people and the British, American and international staff who stayed behind to save as many lives as possible,” she added.
The UK, US and other countries are moving to end evacuations of tens of thousands of citizens before the August 31 deadline.

She’s known for her busty chest, platinum blonde hair and iconic barb wire tattoo but these days Pamela Anderson has dramatically toned down her look.
The 49-year-old attended The Best Awards Gala at the Four Seasons George V hotel in Paris and you'd be forgiven for not knowing it was the former Baywatch babe.
The bubbly blonde's hair was noticeably less platinum and tied back to show off her glowing face. Gone too were her signature kohl-lined eyes, instead replaced with soft, minimal makeup. Her barb-wired inking now invisible, having had it removed by laser in 2014.
Anderson was the guest of honor at the event and escorted Italian events promoter Massimo Gargia, who looked rather smitten as she fed him a piece of the celebratory cake.
Aside from her unforgettable 2008 appearance on Big Brother, the mother-of-two has kept a rather low profile.
Since her days in the spotlight the Playboy star has turned her attention to becoming an activist and she currently helps several animal, human and environmental rights organizations.

Renwick Gallery -- a newly renovated Smithsonian art gallery across the street from the White House -- has opened its beautifully restored rooms to a WONDER of an exhibit.
WONDER honors this historic building, the first in the country to be built exclusively as an art museum, with room-filling pieces created specifically for the Renwick by nine contemporary artists.
The gigantic art -- a rainbow made of thread, a pieced-together cast of a 150-year-old tree, a gorgeous wallpaper made of bugs and Bryce Canyon-like hoodoos made of paper, tape and toothpicks -- invite the viewer to peer closer, to see the tiny bits and figure out how it works. Some of the work asks you to interact with it; others -- like the rainbow and the bug wallpaper -- require the poor security guards to work overtime to keep the crowds back from it. It's a wonderful exhibit for children and my husband -- you know, the people who aren't huge fans of art museums. And, because we're spoiled rotten here in D.C., it's also free!
I could keep typing, but why. Click on the pictures to take your own virtual tour of the Renwick Gallery, then come soon to see the real thing. The second floor, with its amazing bug wallpaper and deconstructed tree, will close May 8. The first floor closes July 10.
Pennsylvania Avenue at 17th Street NW
Washington, DC 20006
Open Daily, 10 a.m.–5:30 p.m., free admission

BNP standing committee member Moudud Ahmed on Sunday said party Chairperson Khaleda Zia to be freed through a tough movement.
“We will try our best for Khaleda Zia’s bail through legal process. But a strong movement can ensure her release from jail. We have to be organized and arrange programmes to this end. We have to launch such programmes that the government will be forced to free her,” he said.The BNP leader came up with the statements addressing a human chain arranged by Jatiyatabadi Muktijoddha Dal in front of the National Press Club in the capital.
He expressed the hope that Khaleda Zia will be granted bail next week.
“There are two cases: Zia Orphanage Trust graft case and Zia Charitable Trust corruption case of Khaleda Zia in High Court. We hope Khaleda Zia will get bail in Zia Charitable Trust corruption case. If bail is not granted, we must go to the appellate division.”
He claimed that the country’s people want Khaleda Zia to be released from jail.
“We cannot ensure bail of Khaleda Zia due to political influence of the government.” About the proposed national budget for fiscal year 2019-20, the BNP leader said the budget is meant for the beneficiaries of the government not for the people of the country.

2018 Jeep Wrangler JK vs. 2018 Jeep Wrangler JL: What’s the Difference?
With distinctive styling and unmatched off-road capability, the Jeep Wrangler is the definitive adventure SUV. Hutchinson drivers looking for adventure can turn to the 2018 Jeep Wrangler and the 2018 Jeep Wrangler JK. The Jeep Wrangler — also referred to as the Wrangler JL — and Wrangler JK maintain the interior comfort Hutchinson and Newton drivers want while crushing off-road challenges.
What Does JK Mean for Jeep?
The Jeep Wrangler JK was in production from 2007 to 2018. Contrary to what many are led to believe, “JK” is not an abbreviation, but rather an identification code to distinguish between the many Wrangler generations. That said, there is one major difference between the Wrangler JK and the lineups that came before it: The JK is available as either a 2-door Wrangler or 4-door Wrangler JK Unlimited, making it the first generation to ever be available with a longer wheelbase and four-door body style. Beyond this, the Wrangler JK set itself apart from previous generations with the following notable upgrades:

We went to one of the most beautiful and accessible beaches in Costa Rica… With millions of palm trees to hang hammocks and 2 kilometers of white sand, Playa Carrillo in Guanacaste is a perfect place to enjoy with family and friends. So we took advantage of the discounts with the BAC Credomatic cards (discounts here) and found a really nice hotel.
What to bring? Comfortable beach clothes, sun protection, repellent, chairs, beach umbrella, blankets, hydration, towel and an excellent attitude. Vehicle: Automobile Parking: Yes Pets: Yes Campsite: No Hours: Always open Contact: Hotel Leyenda Lodging [email protected] https://www.hotelleyenda.com/ Cost: Varies depending on the season
We left on a Friday afternoon for Playa Carrillo in Guanacaste, heading to our Hotel Leyenda lodging just 2 km from the beach. Since we left late, we all arrived at night.
The next morning we woke up wanting to go for a walk and have a blast but it was raining… so we went to have breakfast at the hotel restaurant and then we waited for it to clear up in the room. Time passed and it did not stop raining, as it turns out that according to the news we were in tropical storm # 1457 of the year.
The Hotel Leyenda is beautiful, it exceeded our expectations with spacious and comfortable rooms, impeccable gardens, a central pool and a restaurant with scrumptious food.
When it was time for lunch we went to the center of Samara to look for a restaurant to eat something and we ended up in a place in front of the beach. It rained little but when we were finishing up, it started to rain even harder.
When we headed back to the hotel we passed Carrillo again and got off at the beach since it hardly rained. This beach is very beautiful, it is accessible, the car is close by, there are millions of palm trees to hang hammocks, it is very clean and it even has concrete tables for a picnic under the shade of the palm trees.
We went for a little walk on the beach, we played with Moss (Glori's dog) and Karlita got off with Julian (the baby). We had just over 15 minutes when the water came back, so we ran back to the car, and from the car straight to the hotel room.
The next day after breakfast the weather seemed a bit more promising, the sun came out and so we went back to the beach. On the beach we played, we ran, we walked, we went into the sea, we enjoyed paddle tennis with rain and without rain. We were able to be there until 2:30pm, until the water came. In the end it's about enjoying as much as possible, and that's what we did... we had a good time with friends like we´d had so many times before.
After being on the beach we returned to pick up our things at the Leyenda hotel and have a delicious lunch before returning to San José.

The Pennsylvania Department of Environmental Protection announced today that it recovered in Maryland the missing nuclear gauge a Franklin County company lost in West Virginia on May 3. The device has not been tampered with or damaged.
“We are relieved that the nuclear gauge has been recovered and that no radioactive materials were released,” DEP Bureau of Radiation Protection Director David Allard said. “The agency thanks the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission, West Virginia officials, the public and the citizen who discovered the gauge along the road for the combined effort to find it.”
The nuclear gauge has been returned to Valley Quarries Inc. of Chambersburg, Franklin County, which lost the Troxler Model 3430 gauge when it fell off the company’s truck on I-81 in West Virginia between mile markers 17 and 24.
The gauge is normally stored in a locked yellow transportation container when not in use at construction sites for taking measurements in the ground, but it apparently fell out of the container on the back of the company’s truck during transport to another work site.

By working closely with Amnesty, we were able to decipher their multifaceted international infrastructure and help them gain immediate value from the new global website.
Our goal: to motivate supporters, and attract a new, younger audience to Amnesty. Insight from a major research project guided the design, strategic direction and role of the new website. Our prioritised journeys – those to donate, join and search – were user-tested at the design phase and the results fed straight back into development. This reduced waste and ensured that we were able to make a bigger impact on the site’s performance, more quickly.
Amnesty International’s digital presence is complex – while countries like the UK had their own dedicated site, others such as Zimbabwe did not – so we first needed to determine a role for the global website, and then establish an aligned voice that audiences everywhere could understand and relate to.
On the new site, every country has its own page which tells a localised story of the state of human rights and the positive impact that Amnesty’s work is having there. A/B testing ensured we launched with the most effective and engaging content, and we continue to test, evaluate and optimise page performance as we learn more about how users interact with the live site.
Amnesty.org was designed and built mobile-first, so it performs no matter what device is used to access it. And to encourage conversion, we’ve made it extremely easy for users to donate to their chosen country at any point during their time onsite.
We exceeded all targets set by Amnesty International around the key journeys to donate, join and search. Amnesty saw a 47% increase in the number of people joining via the website – more people making a bigger difference.


Some would argue that the Millennial attitude is lazy, entitled, and apathetic. Millennials are currently in young adulthood and therefore should be privy to the current events and issues of America and around the globe. However, this is not always the case, and it has been particularly problematic for the African-American community as the issues of police brutality and legal injustices gain traction. As a generation largely impacted by media and technology, Millennials often look to today's entertainers for direction.
Young Thug drew sharp criticism last year when he chose to avoid questions about Ferguson and Mike Brown, and to instead speak about money in an interview at the 2014 BET Awards. His silence angered many, and reignited conversations about the role of those in the entertainment industry..
As we examine history, we see entertainment not only as a form of cultural expression, but of resistance to oppression. The Jim Crow Era, Civil Rights Movement, and Black Power Movement all have shining examples of this. The New Negro Movement, most notably the Harlem Renaissance, saw the growth of black arts in major urban areas that tasked blacks with instilling dignity and uplifting the race. Songs like Sam Cooke's "A Change is Gonna Come" were used to encourage African-Americans throughout struggle and affirm their experiences. The Black Power Movement saw a rise in the expression of black pride by artists such as James Brown, Stevie Wonder, Marvin Gaye, Nina Simone, and many more until 1975.
After this period ended, entertainment that addressed social injustice, racial oppression, and white privilege largely declined for the next decade. However, some artists have found great success in bringing these same issues to light around the turn of the century.
The members of N.W.A, who introduced "gangsta rap" to America in the late 1980s, were some of the first voices to unapologetically detail the brutalities of the modern-day black experience, especially concerning law enforcement and poverty. Spike Lee, at the apex of his career, directed the film Malcolm X in 1992. There weren't many political statements made again until 2005, when Kanye West made his famous statement about President George W. Bush regarding Hurricane Katrina, and Lil Wayne released the song "Tie My Hands." Many voices like these have been silenced after being deemed threatening to the welfare of the American public, and proving detrimental to one's crossover appeal and earning potential. This has led to a consistent decline in socially- and politically-conscious expression from black entertainers, which Tupac Shakur was very critical of during his career in the early 1990s.
But all hope is not lost.
In 2013, Harry Belafonte, a civil rights activist and the first African-American to win an Emmy, criticized this generation of black celebrities, particularly Jay-Z and Beyoncé, for not doing more for social uplift. Jay-Z, who had largely relied on his philanthropic efforts and support of President Barack Obama until that point, has since made an appearance at a Trayvon Martin rally, and bailed Baltimore protesters out of jail after the death of Freddie Gray.
Several entertainers in the past two years have spoken out about key issues affecting the black community. Amandla Stenberg produced a video addressing cultural appropriation and called out an example on Instagram. Nicki Minaj and Zendaya Coleman posted about the racial bias that surrounds hair and beauty, music videos, and awards. Zoe Kravitz discussed diversity issues in casting. J. Cole, Kendrick Lamar, John Legend, and Common released songs addressing racial oppression and police brutality, most famously the Oscar-winning song "Glory." Mara Brock Akil commented on and Logan Browning protested over Eric Garner's death. Most recently, Jesse Williams, Ava DuVernay, Nicki Minaj, and others took to social media to express their grievances in regards to the death of Sandra Bland.
In a time when the issues affecting African-Americans have reached new heights in the media, now, more than ever, is the time for entertainers to spread awareness and use their influence to effect positive change. They have an indisputable effect on millions of fans' style, behaviors, and ideologies; and with that social power comes great responsibility.
Whether or not anyone in particular wants to be involved in the Black Lives Matter Movement in this era, they will all be remembered for their contributions or lack thereof. As we move forward as a people, it is important that those with power and platforms remember to not only entertain the community, but to enlighten and empower those in it; not only with their art, but with their actions.

Figuring out what tools our kids need to be competent adults is probably one of the most important goals of motherhood. We all want them to have the skill sets to survive in the world. One of the big ones is how to handle money.
From the value of a dollar to the value of a good work ethic, there is so much to teach them. I know that while they may learn some things in school, the burden of educating them falls on my shoulders as a parent.
Our kids are elementary and middle school age, and I am always looking for resources to propel our conversations about finance. It turns out that there are some super cool things out there. I think I enjoy them as much as my kids do, and am learning right along with them.
If you are interested in helping your kids learn more about money, you might want to check out a few of my favorites:
What To Read:
• Dave Ramsey’s Junior’s Adventures Story Time Book Set Awesome for younger kids. We have an older version with the books on CD–sometimes you can still spot used copies. My kids still love them. Each book teaches a different financial principle.
• How to Turn $100 into $1,000,000: Earn! Save! Invest! Super cool for older elementary kids up through teens. It talks about everything from how to earn money to how compound interest works. Interesting and entertaining.
What to Google:
• Secret Millionaire’s Club Warren Buffet has a website to teach kids about finance and good money habits. Yup, the Oracle of Omaha. My kids love these webisodes, where Warren Buffet is one of the cartoon characters! They are short and sweet stories, each presenting a different financial problem and corresponding solution. There are more activities on the website too. And my kids know who Warren Buffett is. Amazing!
• Cha-Ching! Another great website, featuring short music videos about money and good habits. It also has games, money apps for kids (!), and a playlist you can download. Seriously cool stuff.
What to do:
• Dave Ramsey’s Financial Peace Junior A kit that contains instruction booklets for how to start a commission/allowance program in your family. It has a chart to keep track of chores and what kids are earning by helping out at home.
• Accountable Kids This is a comprehensive program that helps you to teach your kids about responsibility and accountability. It encompasses a variety of goals, one of which is to keep track any chores your child completes and allows you to separate out which are “paid” and which are “unpaid” and expected as a part of daily responsibilities. It comes with a book and a DVD to help you get started, plus a super cool peg rack and responsibility tags to hang on it to help your kids keep track of their responsibilities and help with family communication.
This is just a sample of so many great resources out there. I hope you find them helpful. What have you found that helps you teach your kids about money?

Dear loyal Starlight Express rider,
In early April 2014 we moved our downtown arrival and departure point away from the Ix Project and over to the 800 block of West Main Street. The new location is the Charlottesville Area Transit, or CAT, bus stop at the top of the steps leading down to the Amtrak train station and across the street from Continental Divide and l'étoile restaurants. (To get directions on your favorite online map program, please plug in "808 W. Main, Charlottesville, VA".)
We believe the new site offers myriad advantages. For starters, its location amid the bustle of pubs and restaurants offers multiple dining options prior to our evening departures as well as providing a welcoming place to return during nighttime drop-offs. This central location is located on the routes of both the CAT #7 bus and the Free Trolley. Not only does the new stop put the Starlight Express within reasonable walking distance of large population centers, but the downtown bike lane runs directly to the front door of the bus. Finally, the new location provides pedestrian access to both the Greyhound and Amtrak stations, giving Starlight riders extra options to seamlessly modify or continue their trip.
Please note that if you choose to drive to the West Main Street location, any parking is arranged independently of Starlight Express and costs $10 per day via credit card kiosk located in the center of the Amtrak complex.
We hope you share our enthusiasm for these changes. If you have any questions or concerns, please don't hesitate to give us a call at 434-295-0782.
Thanks for riding the Starlight Express!


Presently it’s for sure that there is no unhackable stock iPhone. Rather the Apple is trying to bring out something that is really unhackable.
The December attacks of California in San Bernardino halted much for the investigating authorities that they had to plea for some modern tools and technologies to get into the smartphones smoothly, as the Apples iPhone 5-C was involved in the case.
The totally unhackable iPhones aren’t presently available, but still the available technology is hard to hack. If the investigating firms don’t get into the device, then it’s to ponder that how’d an ordinary developer get into the piece.
The alarm is right either ways. The terrorism threats are high as well as the public security would remain at stakes.
The present state of the iPhone encryption is comparatively much higher than the rest of the available modules. It is quite hard to get into the device via the passage of hacking and loot up the data, but still there are some ways to get in and in some parts of the world the techniques are in practice.
Apart from all the hype and shabby investigational structures, the iPhone’s upcoming models are deemed to be high on security along with severe encryption states are to be posted on the iCloud as well.
Though the debate prolonged on to the concepts of terrorism and peace between the authorities and Apple, the outcomes are deliberate, contingent to the feel of the environment that if the encryption is not beefed not just the authorities the terrorists would even have the ease to get past the securities of the smartphone.
Though it won’t just relax the authorities, it would even provide further passages to the outlaws to get into business easily.
The spyware applications are one of the coolest forms to get into some monitoring or vigilance business. Preferably the parents and the entrepreneurs have gained a lot of benefit from these applications.
This technology of applications has proven grounds not only on the Android and BlackBerry platforms, but the roots are even strong when it comes to the iOS. Basically when it comes to the iPhone, there are a number of things to cater. Especially the concepts of the Jailbreak environment are pretty much eloquent to conceal.
The developers have been working day in and day out to bring out something that is of worth to work with such environments and their efforts prove out to be the best. The outcome is pretty much remarkable as:
- It’s pretty hard to hack into the parent iPhone
- The application doesn’t show any of the marks of the Jailbreak, show no icon of the application running and the application is not shown with the remaining apps installed over the phone
- The files are encrypted and a lot much of hard work is required to recover the base files from the spied or host iPhone which in 98% cases has caused the baseband loss
The spy apps have some beneficial effects over the users of the iPhones. First is of the hack ability that gets loses. The traces of the application being working are not shown on the iPhone of the spied person which leaves no point to worry.
Then the features that are available on other platforms are even available on the iOS. Whether it’s the call recording or listening, SMS or instant messaging readability, location finder, or bugging, all works over the iPhones.
Track for the odds is definitely a question mark over the smartphone technology’s security services. A lot that happened in the past has involved the smartphones. The traces are pretty much harder.
The efforts of the Apple’s team to make unhackable iPhone might go fruitful as 80% of the insiders agree to the view point that the coding for the on drive phones and the server access is pretty much aligned to not to get into.
Probably the upcoming updates might bring heavier security. If all is not pondered, instead of facilitating the authorities, the odds will be facilitated as well, which is definitely not good at all. The reflection should carry stress for the odds, and not just by Apple, by the rest of the developers as well.

I decided on about day 18 or 19 of this detox that I was going to take today, my only FULL day off this week, to eat the stuff that I craved after being on the detox. Of course, with it being only one day, I can’t fit everything in that I missed, but I think I did pretty good 🙂
Mrs. Murphy’s donuts (glazed cake, powdered sugar cake)
Pumpkin spice coffee with caramel creamer
Verdict…a very tasty breakfast…however, I got too full. I should have had just one donut. And the coffee was good, but not great.
El Forastera (Mexican restaurant)…ate 1/2 of my vegetable quesadilla (with flour tortilla, cheese!!!, onions, green and red peppers, mushrooms, zucchini and yellow squash), with guacamole, rice and beans, and mandarin orange soda
*for dessert a small pumpkin shaped Reese’s peanut butter cup
Verdict… That quesadilla was GOOD! SO flavorful. But I was getting full and so only ate half. Ate half of my rice and all of my beans and half of Kimm’s beans.
Cheese pizza and fries out!
*for dessert another small pumpkin shaped Reese’s peanut butter cup
Verdict…LOVE ME MY PIZZA (even though the crust was a tad bit too done for my liking). Again I got full and only ate a small portion of the fries.
I’m planning on having ICE CREAM (Haagen Daaz Caramel Cone to be precise)
Verdict…even though I haven’t even had this yet, I just know the flavor will be great!
(can you tell I missed dairy!)
Today was one of those completely relaxing days…I LOVED IT.
We got up and took a walk before it started raining…with working so much, my walking has been diminished. Then after feeding the animals we piled ourselves and Izzy in the car to go to Mrs. Murphy’s for donuts…it was a beautiful ride…even though most of the color is past peak. After eating breakfast I took a nice hot shower and got dressed and then watched DWTS!
After lunch I read blogs and explored some new to me vegan blogs. I’m extremely excited to start incorporating more vegan meals into our rotation.
Now it is raining and the sound of the rain on the roof is lulling me to close my eyes…I think I’ll catch a quick cat nap before we watch our shows!

“In times of tension it is particularly important to defend what is good, identify what would worsen the status quo, strive for balanced assessments, always hoping for the best, and try to identify and oppose any and all steps toward coercive authoritarianism.” Richard Falk narrates the coup in Turkey at Guernica.
This summer Antosha Chekhonte’s (aka Anton Chekhov‘s) first book The Prank will finally be published after more than 130 years of waiting, and it’s been described as “frankly indispensable for readers of Chekhov, or Russian literature, or comedic literature, or parody, or any and all literature” generally. Pair with our own Sonya Chung‘s essay, “I Heart Chekhov.”

While healthier foods and beverages have been trending for several years, these types of products have become even more relevant to consumers since the onset of the coronavirus pandemic. The snacks industry has long been dominated by legacy brands, but many startups and challenger brands are disrupting the category.
“A key factor is the easy access to information,” said Nick Desai, founder and CEO of pea-based snack brand PeaTos. “The proliferation of the internet and tools like Google have made information on food products and their link to our health and well-being a mainstream topic of discussion which led food companies and regulators to revisit and upgrade their way of thinking.”
As consumers thought more about health, they also found that functional foods and beverages could be used to address specific health concerns and boost overall wellness.
“Innovative food and beverage brands — many of whom were born online — are more holistic lifestyle brands,” said Shaunak Amin, founder and CEO of SnackMagic. The customizable snack and swag service recently launched its consumer packaged goods data insights platform, CPGpulse.
“Taste is always king”
Although consumers are seeking better-for-you snack alternatives, almost no is willing to sacrifice delicious flavors in their new options.
“Taste is always king,” said Amin. “Brands should strike the right balance between marrying good taste with function, innovative brand messaging and sustainability.”
Product taste is also a chief concern for PeaTos, which recently reformulated its line of snacks to be dairy-free, also making the brand entirely vegan.
“PeaTos has always looked to bridge the gap between our desire for tasty and fun snacks with our desire to be better about nutrition, which sometimes seem to be competing interests,” said Desai. “We want to eliminate that trade-off.”
Amin reports that SnackMagic’s CPGpulse data shows that customers are enthusiastic about trying new food products, but most shoppers are still seeking out the most common categories: cookies, confections and savory crunchy brands. He cited the top savory brands, according to the platform, as Kibo Foods, Air Cheese and Love Corn, with Kibo’s chickpea chip as a specific example of an innovative product in an already well-known category.
“It’s important to explore new flavors but have a familiar form factor,” said Amin.
Data insights aid snacks brands
Desai reports that PeaTos has experienced growth during the pandemic, and many new customers have connected with the brand online, which has allowed for more frequent and direct communication. This contact helps the brand continue to deliver products that consumers are seeking.
In order to help meet the needs and desires of snacking shoppers, CPGpulse offers brands – as well as retail buyers and investors – information on several topics, such as first-party commerce performance, reviews and the ability to move product.
“All this combined helps brands use our platform to experiment quickly with new flavors and marketing attributes,” according to Amin.
He added that the company also has the capability to do A/B testing with prototype packaging as well as product testing via its SnackDrop sampling arm, allowing brands to make changes before larger-scale manufacturing and marketing efforts.
“Consumers are turning to their food and drink as fuel to get through their busy lives and brands have taken notice,” said Amin.

Since debuting in 1998 with Dressed Up Like Nebraska, singer/songwriter Josh Rouse has tread one of the least straightforward musical paths you can imagine. His early records were full of impressively solid and accessible tunes representative of his Midwestern roots. As the years wore on, Rouse used his craft to explore the other parts of himself, the parts comprised of myriad places, people, and things gathered throughout a life in motion
By 2005’s Nashville set, Rouse’s musical edges had softened themselves around lush string arrangements and a wider array of instrumentation. The following year, Subtitulo saw Spanish influences creeping into an even more expanded artistic purview. That trend was bolstered further when Rouse relocated to Spain and married a native (documented with She’s Spanish, I’m American). He’s lived there ever since, allowing the experience to infiltrate him body and soul, as evidenced on 2010’s partially Spanish-language El Turista.
As he gears up to release a pseudo-band project with The Long Vacations, Rouse has pulled together a bunch of tunes for NoiseTrade. The collection touches down at myriad points across his whole career and offers a wonderful glimpse at the ever-evolving work of an artist who exists outside of both time and place, rejecting the limitations they strive to impose.
NoiseTrade: You are a true musical chameleon… like the love child of Ry Cooder and k.d. lang… at home in multiple genres. You don’t just push the envelope, you tear it open. Do you think that’s one of the keys to career longevity in an ever-shifting world – keep it interesting for yourself and, therefore, for everyone else?
Josh Rouse: I went to eight different schools growing up… always the new guy. So, naturally I could reinvent myself with each new school and set of friends! I’m a fan of so many kinds of music and, being a songwriter, I feel it’s a rite of passage to swing in and out of styles. And it’s inspiring. I don’t know if it’s the reason I’ve managed to sustain a career. I think “feeling” and hooky songs has been the reason for that.
NT: How has the genre-hopping affected your long-time fans? Do most stick with you through the stylistic shifts?
JR: The fans whose musical taste has grown along with mine have stuck with it. I’m sure there are a lot of fans who just like my first or fifth record. The good thing about changing it up is seeing new faces at the shows!!!! I had a lot of older male fans when I started, now it’s couples!
NT: And what about new fans who maybe discover you on, say, El Turista… do you find that they dig into the back catalog? The artist who made El Turista is very different from the one who made Dressed Up Like Nebraska.
JR: I hope they check it all out; I do if I discover someone new I’ve never heard of. I’m not sure what my fans are doing or thinking very often. This new generation of artists is very in touch with their fan base, talking to them on Facebook, etc. That kind of freaks me out! I still can’t believe I have fans; I don’t want to hear their opinion.
NT: Summertime, the new NoiseTrade sampler, feels like a great introduction to the breadth and depth of your work as well as a companion piece to Best of the Rykodisc Years. What was your intention in putting it together, and how did you cull the songs?
JR: My intention was to put a few new songs and, of course, a lot of older material that perhaps would be a good introduction to people who weren’t familiar with me. My manager helped me pull it together as I’m a busy kid.
NT: Next up, you have a new collaborative project – The Long Vacations. What’s that all about?
JR: It’s myself with Xema Fuertes (banjo, guitar, drums) and Caio Bellveser (bass, piano) who play in my current live band. They are all my songs, but these guys really put their personality into it with their parts, so I decided to name it a band project. It has a very open, beach vibe to it. I think you would be crazy not to like it!

Even the simplest of construction activity becomes complex around live rail. In addition to the obvious dangers of working near high speed locomotives, the care and concern for rail passengers and pedestrians adds to the importance of construction site management. In the interest of protecting the worker, passengers and pedestrians, the Federal Railroad Administration (FRA) has implemented stringent regulations. For the average construction company, navigating the federal regulations and numerous site hazards can be daunting. The inherent impacts to cost effectiveness and efficiency of the project are abundant.
