For those less familiar with the U.S. Supreme Court, this brief (and admittedly over-generalized) history of the Court might shed some light on why Republicans are pulling out all the stops to block President Obama’s nomination of Merrick Garland—and on why the upcoming election, not just for the presidency but also for control of the senate, is so historically pivotal. It is no exaggeration to say that 2016 could mark the dawn of a new era.
Generally speaking, the Supreme Court has swung like a pendulum through time, ideologically from right to left and back again. The 1890s to the 1930s (sometimes called the Lochner era) is generally considered a period when the Court was politically conservative. Then FDR was elected in 1932 and the conservative Court kept striking down pieces of FDR’s New Deal legislation. In response, FDR threatened to expand the number of justices on the Court to as many as 15. And even without his court-packing plan, FDR was able to appoint 8 justices to the Court in his first two terms. So, in the late 1930s, the Court began tilting leftward.
From the late 1930s through the 1960s the Court moved leftward, culminating in the progressive Warren Court, led by Chief Justice Earl Warren. The Warren Court issued iconic progressive decisions like Brown v. Board of Ed. (desegregation), Miranda v. Arizona (right to remain silent), Baker v. Carr (1 person, 1 vote), Mapp v. Ohio (exclusionary rule), and Griswold v. Connecticut (right to privacy)—just to name a few. But conservatives made “the liberal Warren Court” a campaign issue and, in his 1968 campaign for president, Richard Nixon attacked the Warren Court repeatedly.
LBJ decided not to run for reelection in 1968 because his popularity had suffered under his escalation of the Vietnam War, so Warren announced his retirement to give LBJ the opportunity to appoint his successor before leaving office. But Republicans objected to this move and blocked LBJ’s nomination of Abe Fortas as the new Chief. Nixon won the election—then, through a confluence of circumstances, Nixon was able not only to replace Chief Justice Warren with Chief Justice Burger, but also to make 3 additional appointments to the Court during his first term as president (including Justice Rehnquist). With those 4 appointments, the Court began tilting rightward in the 1970s.
Over the next few decades, the Court continued moving rightward as Reagan made 3 appointments (including Justice Scalia) and George H.W. Bush made 2 appointments (including Justice Thomas). And with George W. Bush’s appointment of Chief Justice Roberts and Justice Alito, the Court’s move rightward has culminated in the Roberts Court—which some have labeled the most conservative Court in history.
But then, in February 2016, Justice Scalia died. This presented Obama with the opportunity to replace Scalia with Garland—a change that would tilt the balance of the Court in a leftward direction for the first time in 45 years.
This is what is at stake. This is why Republicans are blocking Garland’s nomination—and why the 2016 election is so historically pivotal. The Court has swung like a pendulum from conservative (1890s to 1930s) to progressive (1930s to 1960s), to conservative (1970s to 2010s). And now 2016 could be the dawn of a new era, the beginning of a new swing toward progressivism.
But to get the swing started, Democrats might need to win more than just the presidency. If the Democrats win the presidency but the Republicans hold on to the senate, the Republicans can continue to block Garland and any other nominee that President Clinton might put forward—meaning we could be stuck with an 8-member Court for the foreseeable future. In fact, the Republicans could be hoping for Ginsburg (83) or Breyer (77) to step down, due to old age—then they could continue to block all Clinton nominees to preserve a 7-member Court that still has a conservative majority. Why not? After all, if they’re not losing elections in the senate, there might not be anything to stop them from doing so.

Every night, all across Australia, there’s a constant battle between a snoring sleeper and a frustrated partner. This often results in an elbow to the ribs or the snorer being banished to the lounge with a pillow and blanket.
Some people have been recorded snoring as loud as 80 decibels, which is as loud as a vacuum cleaner two metres away. Although some partners would argue it’s more like a jumbo jet taking off.
Often the butt on many jokes, snoring may be an indicator of the very serious health condition of Obstructive Sleep Apnoea (OSA). Some people may even have a predisposition to OSA stemming from childhood because of narrow arches and their jaw developed into a malaligned bite.
Obstructive Sleep Apnoea occurs when the soft tissue and muscles at the back of the throat that keep the airway clear relax during sleep. This causes a blockage of the air passage and a pause in breathing, which can last from 10 seconds up to one minute. In severe cases, this can occur 10 times per hour.
The result is an elevation in adrenaline release into the bloodstream causing the snorer to jolt awake, breathe and fall back to sleep almost instantly, often unaware of waking.
In addition to daytime fatigue due to disruptive sleep patterns, OSA may also contribute to high blood pressure, heart disease and stroke as well as destabilise diabetes.
If you or your partner snore or you notice they stop breathing during sleep, schedule a consultation appointment with the iSmile Studio Dental team. We can assess the positioning of the jaw while it is relaxed and determine if your OSA could potentially be resolved with the use of a night splint. Get in touch on (03) 9888 5677 or visit our practice at 1/92 Balwyn Rd, Balwyn VIC 3103.

Disability Rights California news and media coverage.
Sacramento County’s use of solitary confinement in its jail is facing scrutiny from inmate advocates. A lawsuit claims the practice unfairly punishes people experiencing mental health crises.
The San Diego City Council is scheduled Tuesday to repeal a 35-year-old law that makes it illegal for people to live inside vehicles.
Advocates for homeless people say it could be a key step toward ending the local criminalization of homelessness. They hope the repeal is permanent but they expressed concerns that city officials plan to soon propose a revised version of the law that could be more legally sound.
A legend in the rap community, Charles Williams, known to many as Keak Da Sneak, spends his days confined to a wheelchair.
The Santa Barbara County Jail reported its first inmate death of 2019, after a 52-year-old died of an undisclosed medical condition.
Santa Barbara County Sheriff's Office officials reported that the inmate, identified as Jose A. Curiel of Santa Maria, died shortly after 7 p.m. on Jan. 10 at an area hospital.
A group of disabled Californians and their advocates are asking a judge to order shared ride scooter companies to remove their scooters from San Diego’s sidewalks and return money they earned by conducting business on taxpayer-funded walkways.
The city of San Diego and electric scooter brands Lime and Bird are the targets of a lawsuit filed in federal court alleging the ubiquitous motorized vehicles are violating the Americans with Disability Act by impeding and blocking access to city streets and sidewalks.
Several of the 88 people killed in the Camp fire that devastated Butte County, California, in November had disabilities.
Their deaths were only the latest example of a tragic reality: When disaster strikes, people with disabilities are disproportionately affected.
It’s a scenario that sounds more likely in jails than schools: Arms pulled behind their back, a person is forced into a “prone restraint,” pinned face down on the floor with limbs held immobile by at least two people.
But prone restraints are regularly used in California schools, often on students with special needs such as those on the autism spectrum — and at a higher rate on black students, an analysis of federal data by The Sacramento Bee found.
One parent said her son was restrained more than 50 times in five years for everything from not following directions to flipping over a desk.
The last time Nate Lasater was thrown face-first to the ground by staff at Guiding Hands School in Northern California, the 13-year-old came home with a rug burn across his forehead.
SACRAMENTO -- A 13-year-old boy with autism died after he was restrained by school staff, and many hope changes can be made to prevent a death like this from happening again.
“(He was) a sweet young boy who was on the autism spectrum and had some behavioral issues, but was not a violent individual,” Dr. Jennie Singer, a friend of the boy’s family, told FOX40.
The California Department of Education has suspended the certification of a private El Dorado Hills school where an autistic teen stopped breathing last week after being restrained by staff.
The 13-year-old student subsequently died.
The CDE announced Thursday evening that it was investigating the circumstances around the fatal incident on Nov. 28 at Guiding Hands School on Windplay Drive.
Let’s talk about straws for a moment. This year has seen cities across California — and the state itself — pass measures to limit the availability of single-use plastic straws in restaurants. In some cases, like San Francisco, they were banned outright. The city and the county of Los Angeles are the latest to join the fun. Both took up slightly different measures. The city asked for an ordinance to be drafted requiring dining establishments to give out plastic straws only by request, which lays the groundwork for a complete ban in the future.
The city and county of Los Angeles both took steps Tuesday to limit the availability of single-use plastic straws in restaurants, joining the state and a slew of smaller cities that have approved similar restrictions.
By a 12-0 vote, the City Council asked for an ordinance to be drafted requiring dining establishments to give out plastic straws only by request, and laying the groundwork for a complete ban in the future.
Homeless people living in recreational vehicles are still being ticketed in San Diego despite a federal injunction blocking one kind of enforcement, prompting advocacy groups to launch a program that helps fight the tickets with sophisticated appeals.
Police visited the home of Ian David Long, the 28-year-old who killed several people at a bar in Thousand Oaks, earlier this year after a call about a disturbance. Law enforcement officials determined he did not qualify for an involuntarily psychiatric hold, officials said.
As inmate complaints surged by more than 500 percent in seven years, fewer were resolved through ‘corrective action,’ records show
The third Monday of September is the day to honor patients who died in California State mental hospitals and whose remains were unclaimed. The ashes of 1200 such patients are buried in one plot at Ukiah's cemetery, just a little way into the trees from the southwest end.
A San Diego journalist says the San Diego County Sheriff’s Department is withholding a potentially revealing report on the Sheriff Department’s response to the high number of suicides inside county jails.
California school staff would be barred from physically restraining K-12 students or isolating them in “seclusion rooms” unless the student’s behavior creates an imminent physical threat under a bill approved by the Legislature this week.
Harris had been in jail more than a year for an assault case that was culminating in Sacramento Superior Court. In July 2016, a jury convicted Harris of what prosecutors described as a vicious attack by a career felon too volatile for the outside world. Lawyers spent months debating whether the 61-year-old Oak Park man should spend his remaining years behind bars.

When it comes to heartworm disease, dogs are probably the first pets that come to mind, but cats can get them too. In fact, studies have shown that the incidence of heartworm disease in cats is much greater than previously thought. Cats are not a natural host for heartworms and are relatively resistant when compared with dogs, but we still see an infection rate of 5-20% of the rate of dogs within the same geographic area.
Cats become infected by heartworms the same way dogs do: through the bite of a hungry, infected mosquito. Many pet owners are surprised to learn that about a third of heartworm-infected cats are indoor cats. Think of how easily a mosquito can enter your home – through an open door as you enter or leave, or a small tear in a window screen. How many times have you swatted at a mosquito inside? Though your cat may be an indoor cat, that does not make her immune to heartworm disease.
Cats must be bitten directly by a heartworm-infected mosquito; heartworm cannot be transmitted from one cat to another, or from a dog to a cat. When mosquitos land on a cat and have a blood meal, they insert their sharp mouthpieces into the cat’s body. They then deposit microscopic heartworm larvae into the cat’s bloodstream as they feast on the cat’s blood. In dogs, the larvae mature over several months eventually migrating to the heart and lungs. As cats are atypical hosts, many larvae never mature to adult heartworms but they still cause problems. Immature heartworm larvae cause a condition in cats called heartworm associated respiratory disease (HARD).
Because so few heartworm larvae mature to adults, cats can be particularly difficult to diagnose with heartworm. There are no specific clinical signs in cats, although they may show non-specific signs such as lethargy, lack of appetite or weight loss. The most common sign is the sudden onset of a cough and difficulty breathing, which can often be mistaken for and/or misdiagnosed as asthma (HARD). Sometimes, an apparently-healthy cat may be found dead or develop sudden respiratory failure leading to death, in which case heartworm disease may be diagnosed post-mortem.
Unfortunately, there is no medication to kill heartworms that is approved or safe for treating cats, as there is for dogs. Treatments are usually supportive, focusing on managing symptoms of the disease and preventing the reproduction of new heartworms. Surgical removal of the worms is possible but is often reserved for cats with poor prognosis without surgery.
The best way to prevent heartworms in your cat is to give your cat a heartworm preventive. In warmer climates where mosquitos are active year-round, cats should receive a preventive year-round. In colder climates where mosquitos are seasonal, cats should be on a preventive for at least 6 months of the year, starting before mosquitos become active, although there are many benefits to year-round prevention in all cats. There are many forms of preventive, usually given monthly; they may be given orally or applied topically. Your veterinarian can suggest products that best fit your needs.
During Heartworm Awareness Month, talk to your veterinarian about the best heartworm preventive plan for your cat. After all, an ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure!

Rush promised her forever... but promises can be broken.
Torn between his love for his family and his love for Blaire, Rush has to find a way to save one without losing the other. In the end one has to be more important. Letting go isn’t easy.
Blaire believed in her fairytale... but no one can live in a fantasy.
Her love for Rush and desire to have a family keep her believing that they can find a way for this to work. Until she has to make the right decision for her and the baby. Even if it breaks her heart.
Can they find the forever that they both want or has it all just gone... too far?
Character - Rush Finlay, Blaire Wynn
Author - Abbi Glines
Genre - New Adult
Rating - 5 Books
Book 3 is full of surprises, secrets revealed more love and sweet moments with Blaire and Rush.
Biggest revelation Nan and Blaire are not sisters. Nan is a daughter of Rush's dad band mate. Also, Blaire had a brother too, his name is Captain.
There are many characters here in book 3 that I think will be the next subject on Ms Abbi's upcoming books. I like Grant-Harlow love story of course Jace and Bethy too.
This chapter is full of emotions too. I cried when Blaire forgive his father, when she went to the doctor alone because Rush is with Nan who commits suicide.
Finally Rush realized that Blaire and their son should come first.
Blaire forgive his father and finally meet his older brother. Rush had a great bonding with his father and Dean Finlay like Blaire as his daughter in law.
Their wedding is so perfect, I'm so touched and I envy Blaire so much.
Hopefully Rush' mother and sister will eventually accept Blaire on their family.

Poland is making headlines. The right-wing conservative government is being critizied for reorganizing the state, from domineering the Constitutional Court to manipulating the public media. Some consider the criticism of the PiS government unfair and excessive. Others fear the fall of democracy in the heartland of the European Union. So, we need to talk: how can these political developments in Poland be explained? Which EU do the Poles want and what will be their roll in it?
With "Poland on my mind" the Publixphere network (https://publixphere.net) is starting something of an experiment. Is it possible to have a trans-national debate on 'Poland in Europe'? Can we talk to each other instead of about one another - online and offline? Can we get to know each other and connect as a European public - with citizens from Poland and potentially all other EU countries?
We want to provide young and politically interested Europeans with the space and opportunity to do just that. In April 2016 (and beyond) citizens and experts will pose their questions and hypotheses on the developments in Poland on Publixphere.net and put them up for discussion.

That is exactly why nature.house is here to offer you an amazing vacation in the new and magical agriturismo style of vacation.
The experience of a lifetime waiting just around the corner
Agriturismo is an amazing new way of spending time away from the busy streets, the city full of people, and in the heart of nature itself. A truly rejuvenating experience that will never stop to amaze the people that choose to take advantage of it. Say no to the stagnant feeling of hotel rooms, with the artificial lights and smells. Say yes to a stay in the heart of nature itself, where you will be left disposed to the majesty and mystery of nature’s most amazing aspects. The sounds of wild birds and animals, the rustle of trees, and the sounds of rivers flowing in and around your own private accommodation.
Speaking of the heart of nature itself…
Your own private agriturismo accommodation will be located in one of the several locations provided by nature.house to you. Europe’s treasures are far more than the products its countries create and distribute. Europe’s real treasure is in the heart of the nature of all its countries. Even though the continent houses rather small countries, their natural treasures are so many, that some of the most famous mountains, rivers, and seas are located in Europe.
Nature.house wants to offer you an amazing opportunity to experience the real culture of agriturismo. The real task will be to find a place that you love and we are sure there is something especially for you. Are you a mountain lover? Do you love mysterious peaks, surrounded by amazing walkways, valleys, and rivers? If the answer to all of this is yes, then we might have something in mind that we think you would like. The Jotunheimen National Park is something that will surely captivate anyone who is looking for a breath of fresh air, surrounded by some of the most amazing natural wonders of the continent.
If you like this, then wait until you hear about the Saxon Switzerland National Park. Despite the somewhat confusing name, the park is located in Germany and is definitely something you will want to visit. Home to some of the most mesmerizing rocky foundations on the continent, in the park you will find some of the most memorable natural views from all the national parks in the continent. If all you are reading here is catching your attention, we wish we could see your reaction to everything that nature will have in store for you while enjoying the natural experience that is agriturismo.
All the ways you can stay active while on your getaway
There are so many activities you can be a part of that it is very hard to tell you about all of them in a small paragraph. We will do our best to give you just enough so you can decide what it is you are looking for. Regardless of what company you choose to take with you while on your vacation, surely you will find something that suits everybody’s needs out of the diversity of locations provided by nature.house.
If you choose to take your entire family on an amazing and unforgettable family adventure, maybe you will be interested in taking a journey to the lands of Germany and the accommodations provided to you there. Take long walks with your children and your elders, finding more laid-back pathways to take and which every member of your family can enjoy while still remaining entertained. Your parents can relax in the great outdoors, enjoying the fresh air of nature, the sounds of the wild creatures, the rustle of trees, and the singing of birds. You can take the chance to teach your children some important lessons about nature and staying in balance with it.
If you are looking into spending some time away with your loved one, then look no further. Some of the territories of the Netherlands can be an amazing place to take your loved one and reconnect on a whole new level, spending time under the stars, having long conversations under the set of starry skies that awaits for you, should you decide to take it. Maybe even a place for a honeymoon? Everything can be found with the diverse set of locations for agriturismo that nature.house has to offer. All you have to realize is that you deserve this!

Everything you need to know about how to prepare for the weather will depend very much on a few things. First and foremost, the destination you choose will surely have the most impact on what you can expect from the weather conditions. If you choose to take a warmer approach to your vacation, perhaps visiting a country like Spain or Portugal will be something more of your liking. There you can find a very hot set of summer months between June and September, with temperatures reaching a medium of 35 degrees celsius.
A colder idea is to look for a destination in the Scandinavian part of Europe, where the weather is mostly colder, with very cold winters and fairly chilly periods throughout the year. A great idea can be visiting these countries around Christmas time, where you will find a lot of snowfall. This will be due to the temperatures dropping to minus degrees celsius, making for a magical Christmas time. Whatever and whenever you choose to visit, we are sure that the variety of destinations will have a climate that you will love. All you have to do is take the first step towards this magnificent journey.

10ks - effectively, a company's annual report - are usually deadly boring documents filled with legalese with an occasional interesting tidbit buried within. Google's 10k, like the company, is anything but boring. I read through all 101 pages of the document, filed late last week.
I learned that:
The company's headcount has doubled in the last year to 10,600 employees
It has $11 billion of cash in the bank
That 7% of its revenues came from AOL last year, and that a year ago it valued AOL at $20 billion when it bought 5%.
That it has to generate at least $900 million in advertising traffic in the next four years from ads placed on MySpace pages in order for its deal with Fox to make any money.
That the runnup in Google's stock price after it announced the You Tube acquisition last year enabled it to pay 27% less than originally planned, or $1.2 billion instead of $1.65 billion.
And that Google has taken $150 million in stock out of that price and put it in escrow to cover copyright lawsuits.
You also learn that Google is offering its advertisers something called Site Targeting "a service that lets advertisers target specific web sites with text, image and Flash ads, so that they can more effectively reach specific sets of customers. In addition to targeting sites by content, advertisers can choose placements on sites based on user demographic attributes. To protect user privacy, we use only third-party opt-in panel data to map the demographics of sites in our networks." (bold is mine)
Does this mean that Google is marrying its treasure trove of online data on users with third party offline data to create advertising profiles? Sure looks that way. I personally don't care what Google knows about me, but I bet lots of other folks wouldn't mind a little more detail on how specific this database gets. Does Google know where I live and my searching and spending habits? Or does it just have anonymous data for people in my zip code?
You find a detailed explanation of how Google thinks about itself for the first time. For years pundits have debated whether Google was a media or a technology company. It attempts to answer the question this way: "We began as a technology company and have evolved into a software, technology, internet, advertising and media company all rolled into one. We take technology innovation very seriously. We compete aggressively for talent, and our people drive our innovation, technology development and operations. We strive to hire the best computer scientists and engineers to help us solve very significant challenges across systems design, artificial intelligence, machine learning, data mining, networking, software engineering, testing, distributed systems, cluster design and other areas. We work hard to provide an environment where these talented people can have fulfilling jobs and produce technological innovations that have a positive effect on the world through daily use by millions of people.

Reports that emerged Friday that President Donald Trump is mulling restoring funding to the discredited, propaganda-spewing World Health Organization were so stunning they inspired physician Dr. Marc Siegel to beg the president on live television to not go through with the reported plan.
“I have a message for President Trump tonight: Please don’t sign anything that restores funding to the World Health Organization before there’s a huge overhaul of the World Health Organization,” Siegel, a Fox News contributor, said during an appearance late Friday on FNC’s “Tucker Carlson Tonight.”
“I’m not talking about the worker bees. I’m not talking about the scientists. I’m not talking about people that really toil hard. I’m talking about from the top.”
Listen to his remarks below (disable your adblocker if the video doesn’t appear):
When he said “from the top,” he meant officials like WHO commissioner Tedros Adhanom, who’s jumped through hoops to protect China — the very country responsible for the global coronavirus pandemic — from criticism.
“On Jan. 21st … [Chinese President Xi Jinping] called him and said delay warning the world,” Siegel noted. “On Feb. 13, Tedros, who’s not a physician, praised Xi’s commitment to stopping this outbreak. And then on Feb. 15th, he actually said at the Munich Security Conference that the World Health Organization believed that China’s attempts to control this outbreak had brought the world time.”
Everything Siegel alleged was true, though he missed a couple of critical dates.
On Jan. 14th, the WHO touted China’s lie that there was no evidence of human-to-human transmission of the coronavirus. On Feb. 7th, the WHO reportedly said masks aren’t needed to protect from the coronavirus. And on Feb. 22th, the WHO advised against instituting bans on international travel.

Dr Fauci: WHO boss ‘really an outstanding person’, done ‘very well’ on coronavirus.
Jan 14: No clear evidence of human-to-human transmission of coronavirus
Feb 7: Masks don’t necessarily protect you
Feb 22: No benefit to stopping international travel pic.twitter.com/R69p9BkcXl
— Mike Coudrey (@MichaelCoudrey) April 10, 2020
Siegel also meant officials like Dr. Ren Minghui.
“Dr. Ren is the assistant director of the WHO. He’s in charge … of communicable diseases. He was a public health official for China for 30 years before moving to the WHO,” he said.
“Yesterday, Dr. Ren tweeted he’s very concerned about the mental health of the world. He’s very concerned that we put a huge investment into the mental health of the world because of all the damage to our world psyche that this pandemic is going to do.”
#COVIDー19 pandemic is highlighting the need to urgently increase investment in services for #MentalHealth or risk a massive increase in mental health conditions in the coming months. A policy brief on COVID-19 & mental health issued by @UN today. https://t.co/YAL9F9nHoR
— Ren Minghui 任明辉 (@RMinghui) May 14, 2020
“I agree with that, but I have a message for Dr. Ren as well: Had the WHO done what they were supposed to do, had we gotten the correct information … had the CDC known about this, had we been warned, maybe we wouldn’t be dealing with these ravages to our physical and mental health,” Siegel added.
The WHO has been wrong at every step of the process, though for some inexplicable reason it continues to garner praise from the likes of liberal Democrats, members of the left-wing media and even Dr. Anthony Fauci.
Reports of the president’s plans to re-fund the discredited organization were issued by FNC host Tucker Carlson earlier Friday evening.
“The Trump administration is on the brink …. of resuming U.S. Funding of the World Health Organization,” he claimed. “Last month the administration cut off U.S. Funding at the president’s direction. That amounts to about $400 million a year.”
“They did this, as the president explained, because the World Health Organization badly mishandled and lied about the coronavirus pandemic and of course was nauseatingly subservient to the government of China.”
“But tonight this program has obtained a draft letter that would partly restore that funding. We’re told the president supposedly has agreed to sign the letter if he hasn’t already. It’d be interesting to know who convinced him to do that,” Carlson added.
Some suspect Fauci may be to blame:
And now Fauci has convinced Trump to fund it again and says the who has potential. What is that all about?!!!🙄
— Martha H Wood (@marthaonfire) May 16, 2020
No! Cut the WHO and fire Fauci!
— MooseNTn (@moose_tn) May 16, 2020
No WHO funding! Fauci and WHO are part of the anti-American cabal hellbent on destroying the presidency of @realDonaldTrump.
— ROK_H112 (@H112Rok) May 16, 2020
“Despite [its] shortcomings, I believe that the WHO still has tremendous potential, and want to see the WHO live up to this potential, particularly now during this global crisis,” the draft letter reportedly reads.
“That is why I’ve decided the United States will continue to partner and work with the WHO … China owes a massive debt to the entire world, and it can start with paying its fair share to the WHO.”
The latter part does admittedly sound like something the president would say given his vocal complaints about other countries not paying their fair share.

As a reader and a writer, I have become a student of the importance of story in our lives and the impact it has on what we believe, how we learn, what we understand and what we accept as valid. This has made me more attuned to my own responses to the messages around me and how those messages are now being created or transformed by story. It is useful information for me as a writer and as a consumer of information.
A Case in Point
In the summer of 1964, a group from my hometown appeared on television’s “Ted Mack Amateur Hour”. For those of you who don’t know, Ted Mack’s program introduced performers to a national audience through radio and then television from 1934 until 1970, with 3 ½ million auditioning and 25,000 acts performing. Such notables as Ann-Margret, Frank Sinatra, Pat Boone, Maria Callas, Joey Dee and the Starlighters, The Gentrys, Penny Marshall, Beverly Sills, Jim Stafford, and Gladys Knight appeared on “The Original Amateur Hour” and countless others competed for the public’s votes, with the winner each week invited back to compete with new contestants.
I was particularly interested in the program in 1964, when my brother performed with a group of folk singers from Kennett, Missouri. The Minstrels had won an audition through the Delta Fair talent show, one of many they entered while in high school. The format for Ted Mack’s show was similar to those talent shows: each act was introduced very briefly before they performed and all were brought back individually for a couple of seconds at the end, with a phone number for viewers to cast their votes.
That The Minstrels were invited back for a second time was a confirmation of their talent; Kennett and the surrounding small towns could not have supplied enough votes for them to win. When it was over, they all returned to Kennett and proceeded with their lives. I imagine they recall those days as times when they enjoyed their music and each other and gave little thought to being propelled into stardom.
Fast Forward to Today
I have recently been drawn to the television on Sunday and Monday nights, after promising myself that I would not become an “American Idol” watcher during their come-back season. I had watched the series during some of the earlier seasons, but had decided that I didn’t really have time to get involved.
But one night, I sat down to watch “for just a few minutes” and I was drawn in. By the end of the show, I was hooked – I knew that I would be watching the entire season. But it wasn’t the talent, although I quickly chose some possible winners and winced at some who obviously wouldn’t be “going to Hollywood.”
It was the stories the contestants told about themselves that caught my attention and, in many cases, my sympathy or empathy. I found myself giving extra points to those who had gone through heartbreaking struggles or self-doubt. (I couldn’t help noticing that I was giving those extra points to almost everybody.)
Last weekend, I found myself almost weeping when a couple of the contestants were eliminated. I liked them so much and had become so engaged with their lives that they were almost a personal loss to me. That’s when I realized that the creators of “American Idol” were using our connection to story to bring us back week after week. Yes, we appreciate the talent and assume that it will somehow get its due when the votes are counted. But those personal stories are influencing us just the same – just as the fact that my votes went to The Minstrels because they came from my hometown back in 1964.
I realized that the creators of “American Idol” were using our connection to story to bring us back week after week.
The difference lies in something very subtle – the voters’ ability and consent to be affected by story. We are learning that it is a human trait that we all possess in varying degrees and it applies to virtually every aspect of our lives today. A program like “American Idol” can be fairly benign in its intentions and I can continue to enjoy it as entertainment and hope for the best for my favorite performers, just as I can read novels for the same reasons.
What we must remember is that the power of story can also be used in negative ways also, but that’s a subject for another post.
In the meantime, I tuned in to “American Idol” last night and was fairly subdued until it appeared that my favorite contestant might be eliminated. Then, at the last minute, she made it through and I almost fell off my chair with relief. It was almost like reading Cinderella for the first time – she would “go to the ball” and (maybe) get a chance at the glass slipper.
Such is the power of story, and the reason I’ll tune in for “the next chapter” next week.

I write poetry. Sometimes, it’s good. Sometimes it’s less inspired, but when it comes it comes, and I usually wind up publishing in in our monthly SCA newsletter, “The Equinox”. I also tend to include a fair amount of my work in this BLOG, because people actually seem to like it. 😉
The following is but a simple, short — and quickly cobbled together — verse inspired by the recent polar vortex wave of cold.
Through windows glazed with fracted frost
The land lies all in winter clad,
Icicle sleeved, with rime embossed.
Like knights in armor iron-clad.
The trees stand tall beneath their helms
Of gleaming ice and shining snow,
The guardians of icy realms
Where we in winter should not go.
We listen as the whistling winds
About our towers hungry howl,
And in our bosoms cherish friends
While zephyrs ‘neath the windows prowl.
And on each hearth a fire’s blaze
Brings warmth to every winter hall,
Where friendship waits for warmer days;
A winter blessing to us all.
02 February A.S. LIII 2019


Marriott international, together with Ian Schrager and Carpenter & Company, has announced that it will open the Reykjavik EDITION in 2018.
The 250 room hotel will be located in the centre of Reykjavik on the waterfront encompassing the intimate hotel experience that Ian Schrager is renowned for.
Richard Friedman, president and chief executive officer of Carpenter & Company, “This project provides a unique opportunity to bring the first world-class, five-star hotel to the booming Icelandic market. We have a long-standing history in our company of building highly innovative and successful luxury hotels and we are highly confident that this hotel will be a game changer for all parties,” he continued. “The location of this hotel couldn’t be more spectacular – with the hotel working in conjunction with the city’s well known Harpa center and its location steps away from the vibrant downtown of Reykjavik.”
Ian Schrager, chairman and chief executive officer of Ian Schrager Company, commented, “I am thrilled to continue the global expansion of the new EDITION lifestyle brand with this incredibly exciting project in Reykjavik. The city is emerging as a fascinating cultural hub making it the perfect location for an EDITION.”
Future EDITION hotels are planned for Abu Dhabi (2016), Sanya, China (2016), Bangkok (2016), Times Square (2018), West Hollywood (2018), Reykjavik, Iceland (2018), Wuhan, China (2019), and Bali, Indonesia (2019).

It is important for parents to establish a close bond with their children, however, it is necessary to set rules and principlesfor them to follow that best ensure their safety and well-being. Here is a quick guide on how to strike a balance between being a friend and a disciplinarian.
Parent-child relationship is purely built on love and affection. Nevertheless, as time goes on, parenting should be a functional role, not just an emotional one. The emotional side of parenting is when the child’s mother or father demonstrates their love by holding, talking and singing to the baby, while the functional role involves feeding, changing diapers and bathing the baby. It is important for parents to understand that one without the other is damaging for their children. If parents just loved their children and didn’t do the responsible things, the children may be at great risk of being harmed and neglected. If it was vice versa, then it may stunt the children’s emotional growth and have ill effects on their development.
Dr. Sangeeta Madhu, Founder and Consultant Clinical Psychologist, Chennai Institute of Learning and Development (CHILD) says, “It is imperative for parents to understand that as the child grows older, their roles become more functional and less emotional. It is a hard lesson to learn for parents who want to be their children’s best friend. As a parent, you may feel mixed emotions inside, but you have to think of your children’s wellbeing and set limits.”The emotional and functional parenting roles go hand in hand. It’s not healthy to emphasise one at the cost of the other.Bengaluru based child psychologist, Dr. Sulata Shenoy says, “There are a few misconceptions about setting limits and there have been arguments regarding the same. There is nothing wrong with setting limits. It is how children learn to figure out what’s safe and not safe and what’s appropriate and not appropriate.”
Don’t make your children your confidante
More often than not, parents make the mistake of making their children their confidante and that is against the rules of being functional parents. Dr. Madhu says, “As a parent, the feeling that you need to be a friend to your child is good, however, most parents misunderstand this and make their children their confidante. Being a friend and making your child your confidante are two different things. Your children are not morally, emotionally or intellectually prepared to play the role of your confidante.”
What you should not share with your children
+ Your children need not know what you really think of your neighbours
+ Don’t talk ill about your relatives in front of them
+ Never discuss money matters in front of your children
Always support authority figures
Dr. Shenoy says, “If your child complains about a teacher from school and you think it is the teacher’s fault, keep it to yourself. Do not put down authority figures in front of your child, as at a later date, your child may disrespect you. Instead, you can always say, “I hated that too, but one must follow the rules.” This is more effective because,children know that you understand their feelings and that you empathise with them.”
Seek your child’s opinion, not advice
When you make your child your friend, you think that you and your child are co-decision makers. But the fact is, you and your children are not co-decision makers in any realistic way. Children can offer you their opinion and they can tell you what they like and dislike. However, decisions – minor and important ones – have to be made by you as a parent. Children have to understand that adults make the decisions in the family.
Don’t try to parent your child the way you wish your parents had parented you
Dr. Madhu says, “If your parents were rigid, or seemed uncaring or self-involved and didn’t give you the guidance you needed, you shouldn’t overcompensate for that by violating parent-child boundaries with your own child.”The biggest problem with parent-child friendships is all the unforeseen consequences. Parents tend to look only at the foreseen consequences; for example, my children will like and trust me more if I’m their friend. Parents don’t look at the unforeseen consequences such as they won’t listen to the word ‘no’ because I have never used it with them or taught them how to deal with certain situations.

Last week there were reports that Britney would consider canceling her upcoming Circus tour if she couldn't figure out her child custody situation with ex-boy toy Kevin Federline. Luckily for us, K-Fed will now accompany Spears on tour so the couple's sons can spend time with their mom while she's on the road.
It’s been said that she agreed to pay him somewhere around four thousand dollars a week for the duration of the tour. That’s my boy!
Federline’s lawyer Mark Vincent Kaplan told E! News that under the terms of the new agreement, Spears will probably see her children on "pretty much the same schedule that she has now"
He added, "Kevin is working to make them accessible by going on various central locations in various areas of the country. He is doing that because he wants her to be able to have the maximum positive environment around her to assure that the tour will be successful."

Adventures Of Superman #1
DC Comics (July, 2013)
This print comic collects the digital first anthology where different writer/artist teams can tell their Superman story. I wonder if they take pitches from nobodys? It might be my only chance to write a Superman story without all the reasons I can’t bring myself to work on the official title.COVER: Brian Hitch & David Baron (at least I think so, they’re listed all three comics but not having followed the digital version it’s guess work that this is one of those covers) LETTERER: Wes Abbot EDITOR: Alex Antone “SUPERMAN” CREATORS: Jerry Seigel & Joe Shuster “Violent Minds” WRITER: Jeff Parker ARTIST: Chris Samnee COLORIST: Matthew Wilson “Fortress” WRITER/ARTIST/CO-COLORIST: Jeff Lemire CO-COLORIST: Jose Villarrubia “Bizzaro’s Worst Day” WRITER: Justin Jordan ARTIST: Riley Rossmo
In the first tale, Superman fights a drug addict who has gained strong mental powers. It won’t surprise you that Lex (the even businessman version) is involved. A good action piece, but there’s only so much you can do with a short story. You can action or character but seldom time for both.
The second story goes for character, told through two kids playing Superman, one having to play the villains. It shows (and at one point outright says) that Superman can handle anything the bad guys throw at it. While having my least favorite art (although I do like the layouts and the way they depict Superman’s superhearing) it’s fun enough to be my favorite story of the trio.
The final tale is not focused on Bizzaro and he tries to hurt people and be a hero. Lucky Superman learns to speak Bizzaro and save the day. Bizzaro is a hard character to write just on concept, if my first sentence is any indication, but Jordan manages to pull it off.
This is a good comic for fans of the non-52 Superman but I wouldn’t mind seeing a few full-length stories to really get into it. This might not be likely given the digital first format but once can hope, right?

The U.S. Office of Federal Student Aid announced that it will provide student loan relief for students across the country during the COVID-19 national emergency.
The two main announcements included:
- All borrowers with federally held student loans will automatically have their interest rates set to 0% for a period of at least 60 days.
- Every borrower will have the option to suspend their repayments for at least two months to allow them greater flexibility during the national emergency. This will allow borrowers to temporarily stop their payments without worrying about accruing interest.
U.S. Secretary of Education Betsy DeVos has directed all federal student loan servicers to grant an administrative forbearance to any borrower with a federally held loan who requests one. The forbearance will be in effect for a period of at least 60 days, beginning on March 13, 2020. To request this forbearance, borrowers should contact their loan servicer online or by phone.
DeVos also authorized an automatic suspension of repayments for any borrower more than 31 days delinquent as of March 13, 2020, or who becomes more than 31 days delinquent, essentially giving borrowers a safety net during the national emergency.
Some borrowers may want to continue making payments, like those seeking Public Service Loan Forgiveness or those enrolled in a repayment plan with a manageable monthly payment. For borrowers continuing to make payments, the full amount of their repayment will be applied to the principal amount of their loan once all interest accrued prior to the president’s March 13 announcement is paid. The Department will work closely with Congress to ensure all student borrowers, including those in income driven repayment plans, receive needed support during this emergency.
Any borrower who has experienced a change in income can contact their loan servicer to discuss lowering their monthly payment.
Visit studentaid.gov/coronavirus for future updates. For more information on other efforts the Department of Education is taking to address the COVID-19 national emergency, visit ed.gov/coronavirus.

There are some really nice seats available, but they are all about 2" too wide - what are the frames made off? and with a bit of enginuity could
these be cut and shut to make them fit?
I was thinking of Forza, or Cobra Clubmans etc
Never thought of making your own?
I have Hicosts old Cobra seats and they are about 2 inches too wide. I have stripped one completely and made it narrower by squeezing the lower frame with 2 sash clamps and done a cut and shut at the top with a hack saw and mig welder. The frame is a tubular and square section mild steel jobbie and real easy to work with. The whole lot is covered in foam and I am going to finish them in black vinyl with blue alcantara inserts. I also bought some new harness slots from Cobra. They are a silver tear drop shape to replace the original black square ones. It is impossible to get the old harness slots out without breaking them.
I have tried to insert pictures in my messages but never had any success. I'll try again but don't hold your breath.
Just come back in from the garage with digi cam in hand. Take a look at my photo archive, I have uploaded a few pictures of my seat frame and harness slots.
Spot on, thanks for taking the time. I will try to get some seats and modify them to fit.
No worries Mark, glad to be of service.

Everything You Should Know About Three Stone Engagement Rings
Three-stone engagement rings are characterized by three center stones. This traditional and timeless jewelry has been loved for centuries because of its beautiful meaning and balanced look. Watch this video to learn more about three-stone diamond rings.
Three-stone engagement rings are not only beautiful but also rich with personal significance and symbolism. The three stones can also have a religious significance or stand for friendship, fidelity, and love.
Three-stone engagement rings have a deeper meaning. Traditionally, the smaller stones on each side symbolize the past and present. The larger stone, which is at the center, represents the couple’s bright future together. Spiritually, the three stones also represent the Holy Trinity.
Everything about three-stone engagement rings can be customized. From the shape and size of the two side stones to the center stone, the ring style, the metal color, adding gemstones, and halos.
A three-stone ring takes up much space on the finger. It also needs to support the larger and two smaller side stones securely. This is where halos come in. Adding halos also adds more sparkle and volume to how the ring feels on the finger.

“The operational mode of the band was to do one release per summer, supported by a small ten day tour.” – says the band. ” A global pandemic threw off our schedule, so now you get two HOA releases in one year.

Maybe one day we’ll get back on schedule. Until then we’ll try to catch up.”

Though laying dormant since the recent holiday season and throughout January, the animation-on-disc website DVD Toons sprung back into action this week, with no less than four major updates. First, Randall Cyrenne looks back at the career of legendary stop-motion effects animator Ray Harryhausen with a wonderful article that takes a very close look at the man and the many amazingly influential films and scenes he has contributed to, and that continue to inspire the CGI wizards of today. Next, Rand takes a look at the recent DVD issue of Spider-Man – The New Adventures: Season One, Sony/Marvel’s CGI retake on the comic book legend.
Wrapping up the new reads on the site are a couple more reviews: Ben Simon’s rundown on The Critic: The Entire Series praises the show and its recent DVD incarnation, while Ben also checks out the new 2-disc release of Disney’s latest DTV feature. “It’s fast, it’s flashy, it’s fun”, he says, “but there’s never been anything quite like The Lion King 1½ from Disney, not something like this that really pushes the boat out, breaks the rules and pokes fun at itself with such bite. It stands tall above Simba’s Pride as a companion piece – and a surprisingly well-crafted and very, very funny and unexpected one at that”. This addition to the Lion King franchise hits stores tomorrow, Tuesday 10th February.

I've opened a case w/GSC, but I wanted to query you all.
We've production queries using the function 'current_date' - 1 that are now returning null sets when they had been working. The only changes that we've made are an upgrade to MP-RAS 3.03 from 3.02. Has anyone experienced anything like this? We're on V2R188.8.131.52. I've found nothing in the knowledge repository.
Any information would be appreciated.
