Rows of teenage girls recite lines from the Quran while rocking back and forth in a madrassa in the Afghan capital under the watchful supervision of a religious instructor.
Since the Taliban took back control in August 2021, there have been an increase in the number of Islamic schools around Afghanistan, and young ladies are now more frequently seen enrolling in lessons after being barred from secondary schools. Farah, 16, who was wearing a veil to cover her face and hair, said, “We were upset because we were denied an education.
“My family then decided that I should at least come here. A madrassa is the only available space for us right now”.

THE FAMILY of a Teesside businessman killed in an avalanche in the French Alps say they have been left “truly devastated” by his death.
John Taylor, 48, was one of three Britons and a total of nine climbers who lost their lives on Thursday as they traversed Mont Maudit - translated as Cursed Mountain - in the Mont Blanc range near Chamonix.
Mr Taylor was the director of resources at the Vela Housing Group, having previously been finance director of Tristar Homes and had more than 20 years’ experience in housing and construction.
John’s wife Karine said: “We are all truly devastated about this loss.
“John always had a keen interest in outdoor activities, taking up mountaineering in 1998, and was a highly regarded and very active member of mountain rescue teams himself.
“John had climbed several challenging mountains across the world, including Mont Blanc on two previous occasions. He was a highly respected climber and this event represents a significant loss to the UK climbing community.”
John, dad to Emma, 10, and eight-year-old Louise, held a leading role in Tristar’s successful transfer from Stockton Council and in the creation of the Vela Housing Group.
Cath Purdy, chief executive of the Vela Group, said: “This is an enormous tragedy and all John’s many work friends have been left absolutely devastated by his death.
“He died doing something that he loved; climbing was his real passion.
“He was planning a charity expedition to Mount Kilimanjaro in February next year. Everyone at Vela shares with me an absolute sense of loss and sadness.
“John was a kind, gentle man. He was instrumental in creating the Vela Group and helping us to deliver quality homes for families across the Tees Valley.”
Julie Nixon, Stockton Council’s head of housing and a friend of Mr Taylor’s, said: “Our condolences go to John’s family and friends at this sad time. He was a much liked and well respected colleague and friend who would always go the extra mile. He will be sadly missed.”
Ace mountaineer Alan Hinkes has climbed the 14 highest mountains in the world. Alan, 56, inset, an expert Alpine climber from the Northallerton area, knew of Mr Taylor and knew the expert guide involved well.
He said: “I knew the mountain guide who lost his life, Roger Payne, very well. I’d climbed in the Himalayas with him. And I knew of John Taylor. I know the area well and have been a guide there and have climbed in the Alps. This is a shock.
He said Briton Roger, 55, was one of the safest climbers around and added: “It shows that if you’re in the wrong place at the wrong time when this happens, there’s no chance to escape these avalanches. It’s so tragic for their families.”
At Vela, Mr Taylor was responsible for the group’s finances, human resources, corporate services and governance arrangements.
In addition to his group director role, he had been a mentor for the Prince’s Trust and for Teesside University’s Diversitees Scheme.
Mr Taylor along with Steve Barber, 47, who also died after being hit by a massive wall of snow in the avalanche, lived in the same street in Upper Poppleton, a village outside York.
Both had been raising funds for a local hospice.
Among the other victims were three Germans, two Spaniards and one Swiss climber. They were part of a 28-strong group which was heading for the top of Mont Blanc, in the early hours of Thursday morning.

This might be hard to believe, but while I have read every book that Carl Sagan has written, I have never seen a single episode of his famous science series, Cosmos. Until last night, that is. I remember seeing some posts regarding the fact that the Cosmos series was available on Hulu, and last night, kept awake by an aching hand, I watched the first episode, which originally debuted nearly 30 years ago, in 1980. What a wonderful show! So impressed was I with the program that I decided the Hulu quality wasn’t good enough, so I hopped over to the iTunes store and purchased the entire series, using a gift certificate I received for my birthday. I can’t wait to watch the remaining episodes.
(And while I was at the iTunes store, I also picked up Season 1 of the Discovery Channel series, The Universe, which looks like an updated version of Cosmos. Can’t wait to dig into that either.)

American citizens who are considered active COVID-19 cases are still able to exercise their democratic right to cast ballots on Election Day.
Across different parts of the U.S., drive-thru polling locations were opened in order to allow people who tested positive for the novel coronavirus to vote while mitigating the potential spread of the virus. In at least some states, elderly voters were also able to use the drive-thru sites.
Voting guidelines posted on the U.S.’ Centers for Disease Control and Prevention website note Americans “have the right to vote, regardless of whether they are sick or in quarantine.”
“Voters who are sick or in quarantine should take steps to protect poll workers and other voters,” the CDC said.
“This includes wearing a mask, staying at least six feet (1.83 metres) away from others, and washing your hands or using hand sanitizer before and after voting.
“You should also let poll workers know that you are sick or in quarantine when you arrive at the polling location.”
The CDC last updated its guidelines for voting during the pandemic on Sunday.

Welcome to schnitty night with a dukkah twist! Here, we add the tasty mix of seeds and spices to panko breadcrumbs to create a super crunchy coating for chicken schnitzels. Served with roasted veggies and dill and parsley mayo, it's a meal to remember.
Always read product labels for the most up-to-date allergen information. Visit hellofresh.com.au/foodinfo for allergen and ingredient information. If you have received a substitute ingredient, please be aware allergens may have changed.
dukkah(ContainsSesame, Tree NutsMay be present Gluten, Milk, Peanuts, Soy)
baby spinach leaves
dill & parsley mayonnaise(ContainsEgg)
Preheat the oven to 240°C/220°C fan-forced. Cut the potato (unpeeled) into 1cm chunks. Cut the capsicum into 1cm strips. Slice the red onion (see ingredients list) into 2cm wedges. Cut the carrot (unpeeled) into 1cm rounds.
TIP: Cut the veggies to the correct size so they cook in the allocated time.
Place the potato, capsicum and onion on an oven tray lined with baking paper. Combine the carrot and honey on a second oven tray lined with baking paper. Drizzle the veggies with olive oil, season with salt and pepper and toss to coat. Roast both trays until tender, 25-30 minutes.
While the veggies are roasting, place the chicken breast between two sheets of baking paper. Pound the chicken with a meat mallet or rolling pin until they are an even thickness, about 1cm thick. In a shallow bowl, combine the plain flour and a good pinch of salt and pepper. In a second shallow bowl, whisk the egg. In a third shallow bowl, combine the panko breadcrumbs and dukkah. Dip the chicken schnitzels into the flour mixture, followed by the egg and finally in the panko mixture. Transfer to a plate.
Heat enough olive oil to coat the base of a large frying pan over a high heat. When the oil is hot, add the crumbed chicken breast and fry until golden on the outside and cooked through, 2-4 minutes each side. Transfer to a plate lined with paper towel.
TIP: If your pan is getting crowded, cook in batches for the best results, adding more oil as needed.
Place the roasted veggies and baby spinach leaves in a large bowl. Toss to combine and season to taste.
Divide the dukkah-crusted chicken schnitzels and roast veggie toss between plates. Serve with the dill & parsley mayonnaise.

Here’s some Friday tea for you!
You may be familiar with the Bravo TV show Millionaire Matchmaker
which stars Patti Stanger. A third generation matchmaker, Patti
uses her skills to match wealthy business men and women who
either have no time to “look for love” or are just too blinded by horrible dating experiences. Well get this! Patti has announced she wants Bravo’s
Real Housewives of Atlanta stars Kenya Moore and Porsha Williams as
clients on her show.
Now we all know that Kenya has boasted of her imaginary African prince and
Porsha herself has even discussed her dating life on Watch What Happens
Live with Andy Cohen; However, the both of them are technically still single.
Can someone say ulterior motive?
Now, Millionaire Matchmaker and RHOA are both
products of the Bravo Network. Although Patti has also mentioned that she
wants to break the regular flow of the show by including more celebrity
appearances, this one definitely sounds a bit like an inside “Scandal”
to increase ratings for both of the shows. Hmm? For anyone who tunes in
regularly to RHOA, you know from the season 6 reunion that Porsha and Kenya in the same room can lead to a smack down drag out fight!
If you plan on putting these two together sparks will fly! (Right along with ratings! )
Well …best of luck to all three of these fabulous ladies as they take
on new endeavors for their careers as well as love lives. All I know for sure
is that I’ll be tuned in, getting the scoop on it all!

1. Find the Right Indent for Your Logo
When searching for the best logo sting, you should consider the look and shape of your logo. Some indents work better with a specific style of logo, for example, rectangular logos might look odd in a square logo template. For the best quality logo sting, you will need to make sure your graphic is of high-quality with a transparent background.
2. Get to the Point with Your Text
It’s an enticing prospect to try and put loads of information into your logo sting, but you should try to keep text to a minimum: brand name, website, and social media links are the norms. The key is to ensure your text is big enough to read and in a color that stands out from the background.
3. Get Your Color Palette Right
Brand colors are especially important if you are working for a client, as they will tell you the exact colors to use for text, elements, and backgrounds. When creating the logo indent, you should try to find exciting color compositions that fit with the brand guidelines.
4. Add More Customization with Visual Effects & Motion
You can customize logo sting templates further by adding effects, either to the piece as a whole or to individual elements. Don’t over-do the effects you add though, make sure they’re serving a purpose.
5. Don’t Forget Sound Effects
Sound effects are often a missed step with logo sting creation, but it makes a big impact on the indent. Music and jingles are a great way to make your indents memorable to a viewer. You can also add sound effects to reinforce animated styles; for glitchy effects try adding static sounds or distortion effects.
Logo stings are a fun and stylish way to introduce your video, and also provide you viewer with key information. Logo reveals can be time-consuming to create from scratch, which is what makes logo sting templates such a great tool for video and filmmakers alike. Now you have some great templates to get you started, use your creativity to impress your viewers!

A christmas holiday that
brings families & Friends together
Every November, The Royal Marines Club organises a week’s holiday for families who are contending with physical, mental or financial challenges. Families are able to enjoy time together doing outdoor activities like skiing, dog-sledding and ice-bathing. We share this holiday with our Norwegian counterparts, Veteranforbundet SIOPS.
A Festive Holiday Full of Family Fun and Memorable Experiences for Children.
Family life isn’t always easy when Royal Marines are deployed far away from home. Partners and children make a lot of sacrifices that often go unrecognised. In some cases, these sacrifices continue to be made long after a bootneck leaves the Corps. Juleferie is our way of saying ‘thank you’ - we are incredibly grateful for everything families do. We put on lots of activities every day but they aren’t compulsory. Families can rest and take time out if they wish too. What we do try to ensure is that children have a great time. Santa has even been known to make an appearance too.
Taking on a Challenge
Jumping in to a frozen lake at temperatures around -15°C isn't everyone’s idea of fun. The ice bath has become a tradition on Juleferie and, young or old, most end up taking the challenge! It feels great afterwards and we even warm people up in a hot tent with marshmallows and cocoa too.
Making Long-lasting Friendships
Lasting friendships are made on Juleferie. We help people to stay in touch through a WhatsApp group for each trip. Many families have gone on to meet up separately afterwards. Others have returned to Rondane independently themselves. Everyone is encouraged to become part of the Club to be involved in future opportunities and events.
Made Possible by Donations, Grants and A Special Group of Volunteers
Juleferie wouldn’t be possible without a number of organisations and individuals coming together to make it happen. We’d like to give a special mention to:
Rondane Høyfjellshotell - the owners close the hotel to the public and provide us with free accommodation for the entire week.
The Royal Marines Charity - provide us with a grant to help pay for flights, food and transport on the ground.
Our volunteers - a group of 12 volunteers provide their services for free for more than 10 days to organise activities, drive and manage the welfare of all those on the trip.
Veteranforbundet SIOPS - for being fantastic partners to work with on this project

The new model has been shown in four-door saloon and five-door hatchback variants, but only the hatchback is expected to reach the UK.
The Impreza is underpinned by an all-new structure, called Global Platform, which will be used for all future Subarus, including a new WRX STi, which is tipped to be a four-wheel-drive performance hybrid.
The new Impreza saloon and hatchback will be larger than before, with both wheelbases extended by 25mm over the outgoing model. Overall length is up by 41mm and width by 38mm. Height has been reduced by 10mm for a sportier look and better aerodynamics.
Subaru has confirmed that the Impreza will use four-cylinder, horizontally opposed engines and all-wheel drive. Exact specifications haven’t yet been revealed, but a new generation of engines with cylinder deactivation technology is expected.
The Impreza will offer EyeSight collision avoidance technology for the first time and will also be fitted with Subaru’s latest infotainment system, which features voice control and a range of apps that can sync with a mobile phone via Subaru STARLINK.

Mississippi, Tennessee drink the most sugar-sweetened beverages: study
Atlanta – Many people enjoy drinking soda, fruit drinks and other sugar-sweetened beverages. However, people in certain parts of the country might consume these drinks more than other people.
In a survey of adults in 18 states, 26.3 percent said they drink soda, fruit drinks or both at least once a day, according to a report from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. Of those, 17.1 percent drink regular soda and 11.6 percent consume fruit drinks.
CDC examined data from the 2012 Behavioral Risk Factor Surveillance System. The survey excluded diet soda, sports and energy drinks, and sweetened tea.
Mississippi and Tennessee had the highest frequency of sugar-sweetened beverage consumption at 41.4 percent and 39.2 percent, respectively. Hawaii (20.4 percent) and New Hampshire (20.8 percent) had the lowest. The report states that it is unclear why differences among the states occur, although food environment and beverage marketing are possible factors.
Drinking sugar-sweetened beverages can lead to obesity and other chronic health problems, such as diabetes and cardiovascular disease, the report warns. Healthier options include water, unsweetened tea and fat-free milk.
The report was published in CDC’s Aug. 15 Morbidity and Mortality Weekly Report.

Magnolia and Marlene know what ladies like10/5/2016
Before dinner after a high school homecoming in the mid 1960s, my date advised me on subjects I knew nothing about. First she told me that it was unseemly for a lady to order for herself. Since I would be ordering for both of us, she also added that no lady should ever eat in public with her fingers, so fried chicken and french fries were out. Thirdly, whatever I ordered, my serving should always be larger than hers. Two excellent new restaurants have reminded me how differently people think about what women want to eat.
The buzz around Magnolia Wine Kitchen is that the place focuses more on female diners than any other in town. People compare it to the long-gone Younkers Tea Room where ladies frequently powdered their noses when I worked there in the 1960s. I imagined a restaurant of quaint antique china, likely mismatched, and an old-fashioned tea room menu. The people running Magnolia are far better informed about what women want than I ever have been. This place has been packed consistently for lunch and dinner, and staff who also worked for former Lurra Cocina in the same location told me business “skyrocketed” after the changes.
The dining room looks fantastic with mint green walls, antique and floral art and the most comfortable overstuffed furniture west of Splash. Acoustics dictated some décor, but one really only notices that at lunchtime. On my visits, the crowd ranged from overwhelmingly female to dominantly female. They are not coming for old-fashioned notions about what ladies like to eat. This menu would be at home in a sports bar — huge burgers, sandwiches, wraps, tacos, sliders, truffle fries, pizza and bruschetta overwhelmed a few non-finger foods.
Everything I tried was well executed. A French dip sandwich — the messiest sandwich one can order — was inspired with grilled and buttered bread, coated in cheese with tender, juicy prime rib with a divine cup of jus. A hummus trio included an edamame version appropriate to this soy bean state. Cabernet Sauvignon was served very cold to my taste (55 degrees Fahrenheit), but I was told no one else had complained. I clearly still know next to nothing about what women like.
Marlene’s at Sevastapol Station reminds me of a number of southern themed restaurants that opened in old depots soon after Fannie Flagg’s bestselling book “Fried Green Tomatoes at the Whistle Stop Café” and the blockbuster film it inspired in the early 1990s. Female owned, it also has a feminine focus. Wine dinners are featured in a burgundy and black dining room with an attached patio. A wine rack is made out of a cello.
Lunch and dinner menus differed considerably, but both featured unusual treatments of familiar sounding dishes. Stuffed mushroom caps were filled with chevre rather than the ubiquitous Boursin. Caesar salads were treated in a dressing of coarse mustard seeds and anchovies with whole, folded leaves of Romaine hearts. Beef stroganoff was made with filet trimmings in marrow stock; it was a once-popular special of the day that customers demanded become a regular. Crab, duck and salmon seemed to be the house favorites with many different applications of each. The house soup is a bisque made with smoked lump crab; it’s as good a soup as Des Moines offers. Duck frites were drizzled with hot duck fat.

Josh O’Connell from Black Sheep Social Club in Cedar Falls won the judges award with Ryherd finishing as runner-up.

Recession or not, we have resources to help your business master this moment of high interest rates, labor shortages, sticky inflation, and slower growth. We've put together our Agility & Excellence Resource Center to bring you strategies and solutions with a finger on the pulse of what's ahead.
The following provides key takeaways from CBIZ Marks Paneth’s Oct. 26 Real Estate Market Update Mixer, hosted by Managing Directors Michael Siino and Neil Sonenberg. The event featured a discussion with New York City real estate veterans Michael Cohen (President, Colliers International) and Jeffrey Gural (Chairman and Principal, GFP Real Estate), and was moderated by CBIZ Marks Paneth Managing Director Darya Shneyder.
When asked about the current headwinds facing the commercial real estate market – high interest rates, declining cash flows, hybrid work schedules, $1.5 trillion in looming loan maturities – the panelists at CBIZ’s latest Real Estate Market Update Mixer confirmed it’s not going to be easy.
Jeffrey Gural, Chairman and Principal at GFP Real Estate, pointed out that the market is going to test the resilience and adaptability of industry professionals.
As evidenced by the growing number of zombie office buildings dotting the Manhattan skyline, not everyone in the industry is going to survive the tumult. Real estate owners who play the long game will have a leg up. Renewing your focus on return on investment (ROI), completing conversions, taking advantage of thriving Class B assets, and being known as a quality landlord can help.
What’s next for commercial real estate in New York City and beyond? Read on to find out.
A new world for CRE
“If my father were alive today, he would be absolutely flabbergasted that 23rd Street and 6th Avenue is worth more than 57th Street,” said Michael Cohen, President, Tri-State Region, at Colliers International. His father, Jerome M. Cohen, was a legendary real estate professional and former president of Williams Real Estate.
The evolution in Manhattan hotspots is just one example of the market’s transformation. More crucial, especially given today’s high interest rates, is that the method and criteria for investing in CRE have changed materially in the past 20 years.
“When Jeff and I were coming up in the business, real estate was a cash-flowing asset,” Cohen said. “You bought it, you fixed it, you repositioned it—and you achieved a rate of return that allowed you to finance out your investment.”
But over the past decade or so, appreciation, not cash flow, became the objective: to get in and get out. That worked when interest rates were low and capitalization rates compressed. Hence the flood of private capital and the shift in focus from ROI to internal rate of return (IRR). Yet in the past 10 years, a hyper-competitive environment meant that these players’ margins were all razor thin.
Now, as interest rates climb and occupancy rates plunge, those who overleveraged are in trouble.
“If rents didn’t climb at the rate your Argus predicted, or if your exit cap rate was higher than predicted, or if your cost of debt was more than expected, you’re doomed,” Cohen said. “That describes the predicament of just about every building that was acquired in this town over the last 10 years.”
Conversions offer a way out—but are easier said than done
Signing new leases with existing or new tenants in itself will not be sufficient to reduce the unprecedented inventory of available space to acceptable levels. This can best be accomplished by significant conversions of available commercial buildings to other uses.
But conversions are difficult work. First you must go through the “painstaking” process of emptying out the building. Then you need to roll the property into a new capital stack to provide the necessary financing—and your financing has to be low enough to revalue the building as raw material, Cohen said.
That construction and labor costs are currently high only exacerbate these challenges. Fortunately, effective tax planning can generate significant savings. For instance, if equipment and other construction material cannot be repurposed, there are tax benefits available when demolishing previously constructed spaces. What’s more, in certain circumstances a complete write off can be made of all previously capitalized equipment and improvements that are no longer being utilized.
Dealing with local regulations on land use and zoning, however, presents further obstacles.
“I called the head of [New York] city planning, who’s a friend of mine, and told him I’m trying to get this property rezoned,” said Gural. “He said what are you talking about? You can convert this building to residential. I asked him to check with his staff. Five minutes later he called back and said you’re right, it’s not legal for you to convert without a zoning change.”
Gural would know: he’s currently converting the famed Flatiron building into roughly 40 condos.
To make conversions possible at scale, he said that the government will have to help ease those hurdles: for example, by offering a tax package that incentivizes owners to convert commercial properties for residential use. Meanwhile, New York City’s “M-Core” program provides an alternative option for aging commercial buildings in the city, offering incentives to help owners decrease vacancy and attract world-class tenants.
The flight to quality landlords
As panel moderator Darya Shneyder noted, remote work has changed the CRE landscape—and while many organizations may be rethinking their footprints as a result, it’s a myth that work-from-home is automatically giving employers the option to significantly reduce their space.
Gural and Cohen acknowledge the current struggle. But they don’t see remote work as a bigger threat than high interest rates. As Cohen said, “You can't downsize your footprint for your Friday level of occupancy” if you have the full workforce coming in midweek.
And after all, efforts by commercial leaseholders to be more efficient with their space has been happening for decades, as individual offices gave way to cubicles and open-plan seating. Nodding to a potential recession, Gural put it this way: “The minute people are worried about keeping their job, they’re going to come back to the office.”
Though Class A assets provide more amenities to lure workers back in, Class B properties are thriving in part because there’s more scope for growth. “Class A tenants are basically companies that make billions of dollars in profits,” Gural said, and there are fewer of them. “The vast majority of businesses in New York are small businesses.”
There’s also a flight to quality landlords—the ones who brokers can confidently recommend when their clients can’t decide which space to take and who offer creative (and useful) amenities. Gural meets personally with prospective tenants, no matter their size, and brings flexibility to his leasing arrangements. For example, he recently struck a deal with a nursery school lessee offering lower rent in exchange for a 25% discount on childcare services for other tenants in the building; Gural will subsidize another 25% of the costs himself.
Gural’s company also owns the Meadowlands and holds a popular contest in all his buildings where tenants can win tickets in a suite to see a Jets or Giants game, or concerts from the likes of Taylor Swift, Beyonce and Bruce Springsteen.
Positive indicators ahead
Though the commercial real estate market is experiencing turbulence right now, it’s not all bad news.
Asked about silver linings during this time, Gural suggested that perhaps there won’t be a recession: “I can’t remember a recession where people were talking about how there’s going to be a recession for two years. Every recession was you pick up a paper and something crazy happens and the next thing you know, you’re in a recession.”
Cohen, meanwhile, hopes for the return of ROI in real estate investment decisions.
“There will come a time in the cycle when real estate will be available at a fraction of their inflated values and when cash flow will matter again,” he said. “For a period of time, conservative underwriting will allow you to carefully buy.”

Are Working Women More Happily Married?
For years, traditional wisdom has held that when both halves of a couple works, they spend less time together and are thus less happy in their marriages.
A new study, however, seems to disprove that theory.
Researchers at the University of California-Los Angeles and Utrecht University in the Netherlands found that the challenges of outside employment provide a sense of purpose and lead to more energy at home. In fact, women who have busy workloads are actually more satisfied in their marriages – even if they’re working mothers.
It’s also possible that when women are home less, their husbands help more with housework (leading to a happier wife). In addition, double-income couples tend to have more money, which could mean fewer arguments about household finances.
But Ellen Ernst Kossek, professor and associate director at the Center for Work Family and Health at Michigan State University in East Lansing, MI, believes it’s about more than money, saying, “Even if it’s not a high-prestige job, if it’s meaningful work that fits with the people’s identity and helps the family in some way, they can get plenty of satisfaction out of it.”
Whitney Botsford Morgan, assistant professor of management at the University of Houston-Downtown, also feels a mother’s professional achievements can carry over to a family’s overall happiness. “If a mother receives recognition at work for job well done on a major project, she may share this good news with her husband and/or want to ‘celebrate’ with her family,” says Morgan. “In effect, the positive work experience ‘spreads’ to husband and/or children.”
Whatever the reason, the study is intriguing and may shape future opinions about the so-called “stigma” of mothers who work outside the home.

As Kitchell recounts it, the Sixties at Berkeley really begin in the decade's first year, in 1960, when students from the University of California at Berkeley went to San Francisco City Hall to protest the House Un-American Activities Committee, that emblem of 1950's repressiveness. But the conflict truly begins when UC president and chancellor Clark Kerr's vision of the university as a "knowledge factory," a center for the "growth of the knowledge industry," comes into conflict with the perspectives of students who are concerned about larger "off-campus" issues like civil rights, apartheid, and the nuclear arms race. The university's ham-handed attempts to squelch student dissent lead to the Free Speech movement that unites students from across the ideological spectrum. And while conservative forces within UC seek to dismiss the Free Speech Movement as a "civil rights panty raid" -- at one point, Ronald Reagan is shown denouncing "the so-called 'free speech advocates' who have no appreciation for freedom" -- the viewer can see in the images and testimonials that Kitchell orchestrates a profound cultural shift in progress.
Yet Kitchell does not romanticize or idealize what happened at Berkeley in the 1960's. The film offers an argument that the initial successes of the Free Speech Movement caused protest-minded young people to gravitate to Berkeley from all over the United States, fostering the development of a culture of protest for the sake of protest, just as the focus was shifting from the civil rights movement to the war in Vietnam. The development of a counterculture oriented around drug use only adds to the volatile nature of this social ferment.
In contrast with the tightly organized and clearly focused protests of the early 1960's, the later protests seem amorphous and dangerously directionless. For example, with regard to the creation of a "People's Park" on what had been a parking lot at UC Berkeley in 1969, it is hard to argue with the assertion of one community leader that "the issue is, we must have a confrontation. As soon as you give them a park, they'll dream up another confrontation." At the same time, it is distressing to see a helicopter flying above the campus of an American university, preparing to deploy tear gas against student protesters below. It is easy to see here the tensions that erupted on college campuses across the United States during the 1960's, and that led to the tragedy at Kent State University in 1970.
The movie does spend considerable time on civil-rights and anti-Vietnam War protests in nearby Oakland -- important and interesting, though it takes focus away from what the title promises: a look at Berkeley in the Sixties. I would have liked to have seen more of what was happening to collegiate culture at the University of California during this period. Not *everyone* was protesting, after all; there were those who wanted things to go on as they always had, with fraternity and sorority parties and football games (the Golden Bears participated in Pac-8 football throughout the period), and it might have helped to talk more about those tensions on the university campus.
While one does see 1960's luminaries like Martin Luther King Jr., Joan Baez, and Allen Ginsberg, the bulk of the testimony from "Berkeley in the Sixties" comes from people who were leaders of the protest movement. Perhaps the film should have been called "The Culture of Protest at Berkeley," though that title sounds better suited for an academically oriented history from, say, the University of California Press. Nonetheless, Kitchell provides a powerful and thought-provoking look back at an extraordinary time in the history of American higher education, a time that seems unimaginable today. Walk around the college campus that is nearest to the place where you live, and try to imagine tensions like those of the 1960's unfolding there. Nowadays, on the 21st-century college campus, if there's not an app for protest, or a popular Facebook page dedicated to protest, or someone whose clever tweets about protest are drawing lots of followers, I don't think there's likely to be much protest.
Berkeley was at the epicenter as the counterculture politics of the '60s emerged. And revisiting the political ferment of '60s Berkeley can offer an unusually helpful overview of these interwoven political currents. This film does that very, very well. It rises far,far above films which simply recount the intense experimentation with sex, drugs & rock 'n' roll that eventually characterized the counterculture. This film focuses on the often-less-understood, and fascinating, politics of the time.
The fascinating footage (including early glimpses at Reagan as a
relatively new "pol"), the deft editing, the years-later retrospective reflections of "now-grown-up" participants in the Berkeley "FSM" (Free Speech Movement) -- these are all very engaging, and beautifully assembled. But what makes the film great for me is its clarity in reflecting the interplay of counterculture themes: the movements for free speech and for civil rights, the movement against the Vietnam War, and assertion of the new feminism. Along with the energetic pursuit of "sex, drugs and rock 'n' roll," these elements - blended into one 'tsunami' of a movement -- were experienced by us all coming of age during that time, throughout the US and throughout much of the world. But as a young person during that era, who became very swept up in the self-proclaimed "dawning of the Age of Aquarius," I recall also feeling unclear on how these ideological components -- which otherwise seemed to me distinct and substantively unrelated - became intertwined in the social politics of that era.
Whether the film is slanted, and whether "The Movement" was positive or negative, seem to me besides the point. The Movement was; like it or not, that reality is indisputable. From varying perspectives, our entire culture experienced it, and was affected by it. Most of the many millions of us on college campuses during that time were forever changed -- for good, for ill, or both. This film presents the most coherent depiction I've seen of how this happened, what it's "logic" was - and manages to do so engagingly, without becoming pedantic. That's a whole lot for one film to do, even for someone who respects and loves film as our culture's greatest current art form.

Edmonton… A number of guns, including an assault rifle, have been seized from a group of suspected fentanyl and cocaine dealers by Alberta Law Enforcement Response Teams (ALERT).
ALERT Edmonton conducted a joint investigation with Bonnyville RCMP that concluded with three search warrants being executed in Bonnyville on June 5. A total of eight firearms and three body armour vests were seized, in addition to an estimated $125,000 worth of drugs.
The investigation began in January and came in response to a number of fentanyl-related overdoses in the Bonnyville area. Investigators believe the accused were heavily involved in supplying fentanyl and cocaine to the region, and had strong ties to Surrey, B.C.
The search warrants resulted in the seizure of an estimated $125,000 worth of drugs, which included:
Three people were arrested and are facing a combined 42 drugs and weapons related charges:
ALERT was established and is funded by the Alberta Government and is a compilation of the province’s most sophisticated law enforcement resources committed to tackling serious and organized crime. Members of Alberta Sheriffs, Calgary Police Service, Edmonton Police Service, Lethbridge Regional Police Service, Medicine Hat Police Service, and RCMP work in ALERT.


Friday nights are perfect for live music. So when Dallas Smith, The Cadillac Three, and Lauren Alaina rolled into Oshawa to play at the Tribute Communities Centre, we knew we were set up for a good time.
The Side Effects Tour was already in full flight before it got to town, with shows from Halifax to southern Ontario, so there was no surprise that things were firing on all cylinders in Oshawa. From Lauren Alaina kicking things off, to Dallas blowing the roof off the joint, this was the show fans were expecting – and they loved it.
The crowd filed in early, and those who took their seats were rewarded with the opening set from American Idol alum, Lauren Alaina. The 22 year old Georgia native wasted no time getting into her groove. Alaina showed off the power in her voice and paired it well with the rock and roll vibe that her band pumped out for the crowd.
With just a half dozen songs in her set to share with the Canadian country fans, Lauren made the most of things. Between tracks she was charming as hell, funny, and sweet as she told stories, cracked wise, and looked like she was truly enjoying the opportunity.
The two highlights of the set were Lauren’s performance of her #1 hit (with Kane Brown), What Ifs – and her crowd work during Next Boyfriend.
Before she played her 2015 top 40 single, Alaina invited a dude named Ryan up on stage to dance with her, and neither performer was a disappointment. Ryan grooved along with Lauren Alaina as she sang – and when she directed him through the basics of the Whip & Nae Nae – he gave it everything he had. And after a brief giggle fit from the singer (and the crowd), there was a hug and a smile and the set wrapped with Lauren Alaina’s first #1 single, Road Less Travelled.
She’s young, talented, and knows how to perform – we know it’s no secret – but Lauren Alaina’s got it, and we’re sure we’ll be seeing a lot more of her in the future.

Next on the stage, all the way from Nashville, Tennessee (and Kelby’s birthday party in Kingston the night before), The Cadillac Three took over and let it fly.
These boys, with all of the hair, attitude and energy that you could ever hope for, pumped out a full sound that filled the arena and turned Friday night into a full-fledged party. Yes, they play country music. And yes, there’s a slide guitar up there on the stage. But man, The Cadillac Three are as rock and roll as most of the bands you’re going to hear on rock radio – and country fans are totally okay with that!
The band opened their set with Dang If We Didn’t from their brand new album, Legacy, and didn’t let up until their time was done. In their set we heard Jaren, Kelby, and Neil roll through seven songs that had fans thrusting their beers into the air, singing along at the tops of their lungs, and singing/dancing/grooving along track by track.
Note: As The Cadillac Three ripped up the stage in their set and brought forth their brand of southern rockin’ country music, I couldn’t help but wonder what it would sound like if these boys plugged in and played a little Foo Fighters. Maybe All My Life or The Pretender… I’m just going to hold out hope for that in the future.
If you’ve seen The Cadillac Three play live, you know that they are balls to the wall and pedal to the floor. If you haven’t seen them live, get on it – it’s a show you don’t wanna miss.
The boys brought it when they played Oshawa on Friday night, and if you wonder at all about their passion and appreciation for what they get to do for a living, here’s a quote from Jaren to ease your mind…
“Cheers, beers & hallelujah, we get to do this shit for a livin’!”

The main event of the evening, the man with the #1 hits, one of Canada’s biggest stars in country music, Dallas Smith was next and last to hit the stage in Oshawa on Friday night. And the fans were ready for him.
With a stage full of sound, Dallas and his band (three guitars to go along with bass and drums) were ready too. And from the moment they kicked things off with the tour’s title track, Side Effects, it was impossible to deny the energy and excitement in the room.
A few things became very clear as Dallas Smith’s set played out in Oshawa…
1) He works hard for the crowd – and they love him for it. Whether it’s taking selfies with phones that are handed to him from the front rows, or bouncing from one side of the stage to the other to make sure that everyone feels involved, he’s on it. He owns the room.
2) The only reason Dallas Smith isn’t fronting one of the most successful rock and roll bands in Canada is because he chose country. In the middle of the set Dallas played Wasting My Time and Count On Me from the Default library, as well as Something Just Like This from The Chainsmokers/Coldplay and the crowd was all over it. But, as Dallas told the Oshawa crowd before his encore, he chose country because that’s what felt right, that’s who he is as an artist, and the country music community is lucky to have him.
3) His voice – damn! Before the show we had a chance to catch up with Andrew Hyatt, and when Dallas came up in our conversation Andrew correctly pointed out that “he’s got a voice that never quits.”, we’re not sure we could say it any more effectively than that.
4) He’s a big softie. For the second time we saw an on-stage proposal at a Dallas Smith show, and it was just as sweet this time as the last. Dallas helped a super happy and in love dude propose to his (now) fiancée with a sweet surprise that included the man’s son – and then, after the smiles and hugs and her Yes, Dallas stepped to the side and sang Autograph while the happy couple took centre stage and had a dance.
During the set Dallas, while he was entertaining the hell out of Oshawa, Dallas took the chance to invite a couple friends up on stage with him. First we got to see Andrew Hyatt jump out to join Dallas Smith and the band for a duet performance of his first top 10 hit, On Me. We also need to note the cheer Hyatt got when he asked who was hitting The Corral, the local country bar, to party Friday night. From the sound of it, the bar had a heap of customers on the way after the show.
The second emerging artist called out was Shawn Austin, who has a top 30 hit of his own with Paradise Found, and came out to sing a duet version of A Girl Like You. Smith’s fans did a great job supporting both of these young dudes, and both of them sounded great with the Canadian star who invited them to share the stage.
Canadian country music is in great shape these days. There’s a ton of talent. And with dudes like Dallas Smith leading the way on radio and on stage, things are only going to look brighter. And, if Dallas can continue to do what he’s done on Side Effects, his future is only going to continue to look brighter too.
In 2012 when Dallas released his debut country album, Jumped Right In, he may not have known that he’d end up headlining nationwide tours with rowdy fans that would sing along to his songs all night… but that’s what’s happening right now on the Side Effects Tour. It’s what happened in Oshawa on Friday night. And we’re damn sure that it will happen again!

14 Perfectly Good Reasons Not To End Up Being Relationships Any Individual
If you are just one lady, more than anyone else, you live under constant stress to validate your lifetime along with your alternatives. Men and women are perplexed when a woman isn't within the state of constantly wanting admiration and companionship; women are people to who "continuously searching for somebody else" happens to be eternally ascribed, plus it feels as though no-one quite is able to processes a lady's presence if the girl lifestyle does not revolve around a relationship reputation. However the truth is that "being in a relationship" just isn't synonymous with "being adored and looked after." Ridding yourself of an individual reputation just isn't a foolproof menu for companionship; it is not the happiest lifestyle scenario for every person who chooses to romp down that path. Becoming involved in another person indicates dedication that does not always become reciprocated. It indicates compromise that, for many people at some factors within existence, isn't constantly worth it overall. Relationship is not something which everybody desires doand no person need to validate perhaps not attempting to do so.
The default reason that individuals who'ren't into dating get to defend against those who wanna comment on her dating position (or in other words, lack thereof) is commonly exactly the same: "I'm emphasizing my personal job at this time." But there are plenty of just-as-valid-probably-a-little-more-even reasons to n't need a relationship nowadays, or perhaps in the foreseeable future.
