'Teachers should be given shinpads': 800 pupils excluded every day for attacks on staff
Teachers should be issued with protective shinpads to protect against assaults by pupils, unions have said.
The call for greater protection comes after shocking figures revealed 800 pupils are excluded every day for physical and verbal attacks on staff.
More than 150,000 youths a year are being expelled for the intimidation, abuse, kicking, punching and even biting of school staff.
Unions are now calling for more protection for teachers - including the handing out of football-style shinpads to protect them from being kicked.
Stressed: There have been calls for teachers to be issued with shinpads after it was revealed 800 pupils are being excluded each day for attacking staff
The GMB's Sharon Holder, who represents school support staff, said physical assaults were happening 'day-in and day-out'.
She said: 'Staff should not fear going into work worrying whether they will get bitten or kicked or verbally abused by pupils. Society can't expect teaching assistants and midday supervisors to cope indefinitely with this appalling level of violence and abuse.
'I do think that teachers and teaching assistants should be provided with protective gear. If a school knows of a particularly unruly pupil who is prone to lash out then why shouldn't the teachers be provided with shin pads?
'I don't see why school staff should have to have physical bruising on their body as a result of a pupil. And we shouldn't expect the teacher's and assistants themselves to pay out for the protection.'
The figures, released by the Department for Education, reveal that around 4,100 pupils in compulsory education are expelled or suspended every week.
Protection: Unions have called for teachers to be issued with shinpads so they can be safe from children who lash out at them
A total of 156,320 pupils were excluded permanently or suspended in the 2009-10 academic year for attacks on school staff, which encompasses, teachers, support staff and dinner ladies.
This equates to a staggering 821 every single day or 4,100 in a week.
Across the South West 14,420 pupils were suspended or expelled during the year, with 2,245 cases of assaults being dealt with in Devon alone.
Stuart Fegan, GMB Senior Organiser, said: 'These figures for levels of physical assaults and verbal abuse by pupils against adults are appalling and completely unacceptable.
'Society can't expect teaching assistants and midday supervisors to cope indefinitely with this appalling level of violence and abuse. Parents have to accept their responsibilities for tackling the bad behaviour by their children.
'Government and Head teachers must do more to support frontline staff - especially the many educational assistants who are currently over-exposed and under-resourced.
'GMB is seeking talks with the Department of Education and South West Education Authorities to get them to come forward with proposals to reduce these appalling levels of assaults and abuse.'
Mr Fegan added that new Government advice on using 'reasonable force' to restrain unruly pupils is 'approaching the problem the wrong way'.
He added: 'Schools should try to stop assaults rather than allowing adults whacking the pupils during attacks. Training in behaviour management and bespoke restraint training is essential.
'Additional staff may be needed in the most acute areas and where necessary protective equipment.'
A statement from the teacher's and head teachers' union NASUWT said: 'Schools are not in chaos because of this but where it does happen teachers need support from management.
'What we find happening is that head will make a decision to exclude a pupil and that pupil will be reinstated on appeal by the school governors.
'The problem is OFSTED league tables because schools can get a reputation for behavioural problems if they exclude pupils.'
He said that the union was not in favour of more powers to restrain pupils.
A Department of Education spokesperson said: 'Tackling behaviour is a key priority. We have to stop the abusive behaviour before it starts.
'The guidelines suggest that force can be used when it is reasonable and absolutely necessary.'

Owning rental properties comes with risks that are unlike any other business. Whether you own one rental home or several duplexes, there are certain challenges you face when your job is to provide an environmentally safe home for someone to live in. Habitational insurance helps protect you against unexpected financial losses related to the ownership and upkeep of your rental properties. At Frank Isadore Insurance, we customize habitational insurance to minimize your risks for the Illinois rental properties you own, some of which may include:
- Student housing
- Single-family rental properties
- And more
Risks and Hazards
When other people live or work on the property you own, any safety hazards could turn into a future liability. If a tenant or visitor is injured or becomes ill due to unsafe conditions for which you are found responsible, you could face thousands of dollars in legal fees and judgments. You could also be held liable for the injuries of your maintenance workers and other employees. In addition, there are also risks associated with simply owning your rental properties. If a duplex or rental home you own succumbs to fire or is vandalized by criminals, could you afford the cleanup and construction costs? What about the income lost while the property is uninhabitable?
Habitational Insurance and Other Types of Coverage
At Frank Isadore Insurance, we understand the challenges and hazards you face as a landlord. We aim to provide personalized habitational insurance coverage based on your risk vulnerabilities and potential losses after a covered event. Your coverage may include protection for:
General liability coverage acts as a safeguard against legal expenses and lawsuits when you are sued for a tenant’s or visitor’s injuries or other losses. For example, if you failed to repair a loose guardrail and a tenant’s child falls off the stairs due to your negligence, general liability may help cover your court costs, defense fees, and judgments against you for the victim’s medical expenses and other losses.
You may not be able to control mother nature or prevent fires and criminal activity, but you can take steps to protect yourself against these types of unexpected events. Property damage insurance helps pay for damages to your rental properties due to covered events, such as fire, explosion, wind, hail, theft, vandalism, and more. This coverage typically pays for clean-up and restoration of your policy up to the limits of your policy, minimizing your losses to little more than your deductible. Keep in mind that certain events may be excluded, such as earthquakes and floods. Talk to your agent about ways you can broaden your coverage for these types of events with supplemental protection.
As a landlord, you are responsible for addressing equipment failures in a timely manner. How much would it cost to unexpectedly need to replace the HVAC unit on a fourplex unit in the height of summer? When expensive equipment is damaged or breaks down due to a covered event, equipment breakdown coverage can minimize your losses by covering the cost of repair or replacement.
Loss of Income
You depend on the income you receive from your tenants to help cover the utilities, taxes, and perhaps any mortgage you owe on your properties. If a loss event forces your tenants to find alternative housing, loss of income coverage can help provide cash flow until the property becomes habitable again.
Law and Ordinance
Sometimes the government has the final say when it comes to your property. If your state or local municipality passes a law or ordinance affecting your property, you could be out-of-pocket for the cost of any required changes. Law and ordinance coverage can help cover your expenses and losses if you need to reconstruct part of your rental property due to requirements outside your control.
The State of Illinois requires employers to purchase workers compensation insurance. If you have employees (not contractors) who maintain or upkeep your rental properties, you may need to purchase workers compensation insurance. This coverage provides financial benefits to employees if they are injured on the job, regardless of fault. It may also relieve you of financial responsibility and prevent the employee from suing you or your business for additional compensation.
As a landlord, you probably store sensitive information about your tenants, such as their credit card or Social Security numbers. Despite your best efforts to protect that information, there are cybercriminals capable of hacking into computers and stealing private data – ultimately putting you and your tenants at risk. Cyber liability insurance helps cover your financial responsibility if you suffer a data breach. This may include the cost of notifying previous tenants, paying for credit monitoring, covering your fines and penalties, and more.
Excess Liability (Umbrella Insurance)
You never know when you might need a little backup insurance to help you cover a major liability that exceeds the limits of your primary insurance coverage. After a major lawsuit, umbrella insurance can help cover the remaining judgments, debts, and legal fees after you exhaust your general liability or other coverage limits. Having a few million dollars worth of supplemental liability could be just the thing that saves your rental business and protects you against financial ruin.

PTSD, or Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder, affects individuals who have gone through a wide range of shocking experiences --- from dangerous events to a sudden death of a loved one.
The signs and symptoms of PTSD can include, but are not limited to:
- "Re-experiencing symptoms": include flashbacks and bad dreams
- "Avoidance symptoms": staying away from places or events that may bring up memories of the traumatic experience; avoiding thoughts/feelings surrounding the event
- "Arousal and reactivity symptoms": startling easily; being "on edge"; anger; sleep problems
- "Cognition and mood symptoms": difficulty remembering aspects of the traumatic event; pessimistic thoughts about oneself and/or the world; distorted feelings; loss of interest in activities
How can PTSD be treated?
- Medications --- antidepressants, which can control feelings of sadness, worry, anger, and/or feeling numb
- Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy (CBT) can be helpful, and this can include:
- Exposure therapy --- exposing a client gradually to the trauma they experiencing (safely); can include imagining, writing, or visiting the place where the event occurred
- Cognitive restructuring --- attempt to understand the bad memories
Here at Madrigal, we are committed to addressing depression-presenting symptoms in a holistic manner.

My last night in Slab, I woke up around 2a and had this panic to leave. All of a sudden I felt like I was in a bubble, and I wanted out. I waited for morning, did my morning routine, and made a dash for it. As soon as I made it out of the town of Niland, I felt the rush that comes from escaping. I want to be lawless, societyless, liberated, humble, simple, and out of the system. But Slab is a system of its own, too. I think I’d rather learn how to to be one with the dirt and sky than with clutter and angst.
My destination was anywhere simple. So I ended up in Joshua Tree National Park and headed to my favorite trail for an overnight.
A few thoughts from the desert:
I feel like an orphan floating anchorlessly amongst the stars. Untethered. Out in space. An endless darkness sprinkled with twinkling lights all over the place to float from one to the next. A universe of darkness mixed with infinite stars to choose from.
I lay here staring at a blank sky...and thoughts of having to say goodbye to my social worker pass through.
It’s going to be so hard to say goodbye. My gratitude for her is overwhelming. Validation. I finally got it. I was released from the chains, bars, and puppet strings. How long would I have been fighting to get out had she not come along? How long would I have been lost? Hidden from myself and accessing my own mind and voice? The ability to communicate to others and myself? My needs and wants?
I laid in my tent and felt supported by the earth...attached...cared for. I felt like I was curled on top of the lap of my mother and she let me cry as the birds chirped and the wind lightly brushed my face and tears.
This will be a heavy goodbye.
Still healing while also trying out a new brain. It feels amazing. I feel more secure than I’ve ever felt in my life. Stable. Like I have my senses back. Like I’m out of the house of mirrors. Everything makes sense. Everything is connected and working. And real. No illusions or extra voices interrupting my thoughts. I hear my own voice in my head and know where it stands. I know when it’s someone else trying to take over. And I won’t have it.

21 years after it originally entered development, the devs behind Shantae have come back together to finish development on the Metroidvania's canceled GBA sequel, which is now also getting remastered for modern platforms.
Shantae Advance: Risky Revolution appeared during today's Nintendo Indie World Showcase with footage of what looks to be a full-on remaster with HD character portraits and a proper 16:9 aspect ratio. "More than 20 years later, we've brought the original development team back together to complete the lost Shantae game," Erin Bozon, original creator of the character, said during the stream.
Developer WayForward had previously announced earlier this year that it intended to complete Risky Revolution, but at the time the game had only been confirmed for release on actual, newly manufactured GBA cartridges through publisher Limited Run Games.
Today's Indie World Showcase confirmed that a Switch port is also in the works, and the devs later confirmed that PS4, PS5, and PC editions are also coming. All versions are set to launch sometime in 2024.
Shantae Advance: Risky Revolution first entered development in 2002, shortly before the launch of the first Shantae game on GBC. It was ultimately canceled in 2004, though elements of the game would be implemented in later Shantae titles, most notably the 2010 DSiWare game Risky's Revenge.
If you're not familiar with the Shantae series, it's a long-running line of platformers with varying levels of Metroidvania DNA running through their veins. The original GBC game, published by Capcom, was one of the last games ever released for the platform, landing just as the GBA was hitting its stride. Despite selling fairly poorly in its day, it eventually became a cult classic, giving developer WayForward a path to create five sequels, including Risky Revolution.
This is a terrific time to explore the best Metroidvania games out there.

by Dr.Moira Borg MD Gestalt Psychotherapist
There is something particular about Christmas. Even though nowadays we are so caught up in its flashy commercial excitement and ‘cheer’, I believe that its true soul and meaning still lies in the ‘love one another’ spirit that He advocated so fervently more than 2000 years ago, this deep aura of genuine togetherness that every human being craves for.
There is be something even more particular about human beings. While individually we seem to yearn for love, togetherness and belonging, collectively, as a society, we seem to have lost the knack of being with each other altogether. Instead our relationships are getting more fluid (Liquid Society/Modernity – Bauman,2000) and unstable making our sense of self and belonging more fragile leaving us with an ever growing sense of loneliness and desolation.
Sadly, the ever growing individualistic obsession with ourselves and our needs only compounds this isolation and fragmentation of our world further. All we seem to focus on are our rights, our pockets and windows of opportunity giving little or no importance to the fact that we are not living alone, that we are responsible both to and for other people that make part of our existence and also to the world we live in. We feel we are the entitled generation and likewise the entire world has to revolve around us and we can split rights from responsibility with impunity. As a result we see no problem with insulting anyone who has a different opinion than us, even publicly on social media, making do without even the basic manners when we are interacting with each other and steamrolling anyone who dares be in our way of getting what we want whether it belongs to us or otherwise.
But then every last week of the year we miraculously fall deeply in love with each other again and shower each other with an overwhelming avalanche of gifts and greetings only to fall back to the same routine once the season is over. It seems that Christmas has become another social cliché like the London sales, the August Moon Ball or the President’s run even if we religiously collect money for “those less fortunate than us” and clap to the panto curtain call of “be nice to each other” every single year.
Ultimately the only way to find ourselves is to reconnect to each other and the world around us as only then we can again find the meaning of our existence. Every year, Christmas, which ultimately is nothing but a celebration of the birth of that One Individual who taught us what true love is, is a regular nudge in that one direction. Let us not close our collective hearts to it but “honour Christmas in my heart, and try to keep it all the year. I will live in the Past, the Present, and the Future. The Spirits of all Three shall strive within me. I will not shut out the lessons that they teach!”
“No space of regret can make amends for one life’s opportunity misused”
Charles Dickens – The Man who Invented Christmas – A Christmas Carol

The applications utilizing nanoparticles have grown in both industrial and academic areas because of the very large surface area to volume ratios of these particles. One of the best ways to process and control these nanoparticles is fluidization. In this work, a new microjet and vibration assisted (MVA) fluidized bed system was developed in order to fluidize nanoparticles. The system was tested and the parameters optimized using two commercially available TiO2 nanoparticles: P25 and P90. The fluidization quality was assessed by determining the non-dimensional bed height as well as the non-dimensional pressure drop. The non-dimensional bed height for the nanosized …

The COVID-19 pandemic carved out a prominent role for digital technologies in enabling economic transactions. However, the gender divide in access to digital technologies hurts women’s ability to participate in the labor force.
This blog explores the nature of women’s work and how digitization shapes it. We outline the opportunities and challenges in the digital economy and offer recommendations to ensure a fair digital economy for women.
Designing adaptive worker protections for the digital economy
The rapid digitization of work in the informal economy offers an opportunity to increase women’s participation in the labor force. However, women continue to grapple with a disproportionate burden of unpaid work at home. Thus, any tangible increase in women’s participation in the labor market will call for adequate social protections that reduce this burden. This blog discusses the importance of reimagining the social protection architecture for the digital economy.
Closing the digital gender divide: What’s next for the digital economy?
The world is experiencing a digital revolution and anticipating its potential to improve women’s empowerment. However, studies found that women are still struggling to enter the digital ecosystem due to many factors. This blog—previously published as an op-ed piece at The Jakarta Post—outlined women’s limited participation in the digital economy and the policy recommendations to close the digital gender gap. MSC took part in drafting the policy recommendations and discussed them in detail at the G20 Ministerial Conference on Women’s Empowerment (MCWE) in Bali last August 2022.
Transitioning the informal economy to a formal one
Developing countries often prioritize the formalization of enterprises in their MSME development policies. The benefits of formalization include increased access to credit, higher productivity, and better social protection, while governments gain from a higher tax base. However, informality continues to persist despite these apparent benefits.
This blog stresses on the need to modulate our approach to formalization of the informal economy and explores three principles on how the digital economy can enable this process.
Putting India’s demographic dividend to work: Skill development for a digital economy
India sees 13 million young people joining the workforce every year. Yet many cannot get employment. Overwhelmingly, 70% of the workforce is still engaged in the informal sector, which does not provide job benefits like the safety of tenure or a social safety net. Amid this, India is undergoing a digital transformation, offering a pathway for gainful economic opportunities for the young in India. In this blog, we discuss the need to expand the current skilling architecture in India to help the young thrive in the digital economy. The blog also offers specific recommendations on its implementation.

Treasury of Scripture Knowledge
But he said unto her, Thou speakest as one of the foolish women speaketh. What? shall we receive good at the hand of God, and shall we not receive evil? In all this did not Job sin with his lips.
Shall we receive
And unto Adam he said, Because thou hast hearkened unto the voice of thy wife and hast eaten of the tree of which I commanded thee, saying, Thou shalt not eat of it, cursed shall be the ground for thy sake; in sorrow shalt thou eat of it all the days of thy life;
2 Samuel 19:22
Then David said, What have I to do with you, ye sons of Zeruiah, that ye should this day be adversaries unto me? Shall anyone be put to death today in Israel? Do I not know that I am this day king over Israel?
But he turned and said unto Peter, Remove thyself from before me, Satan; thou art an offence unto me, for thou dost not understand that which is of God, but that which is of men.
2 Samuel 6:20
Then David returned to bless his household. And Michal, the daughter of Saul came out to meet David and said, How glorious was the king of Israel today, who uncovered himself today in the eyes of the handmaids of his slaves as one of the vain fellows shamelessly uncovers himself!
2 Samuel 13:13
And I, where shall I go with my reproach? And as for thee, thou shalt be as one of the fools in Israel. Now, therefore, I pray thee, speak unto the king, for he will not withhold me from thee.
2 Samuel 24:10
And David's heart smote him after he had numbered the people. And David said unto the LORD, I have sinned greatly in having done this; but now, I beseech thee, O LORD, take away the iniquity of thy slave, for I have done very foolishly.
2 Chronicles 16:9
For the eyes of the LORD run to and fro throughout the whole earth, to show himself strong in the behalf of those whose heart is perfect toward him. Herein thou hast done foolishly, for from now on thou shalt have wars.
Forsake that which is foolish and live and go in the way of understanding.
And five of them were prudent, and five were foolish.
Shall we receive
There was a man in the land of Uz, whose name was Job; and that man was perfect and upright, and one that feared God and departed from evil.
2 Samuel 19:28
For all of my father's house were worthy of death before my lord the king; yet thou didst set thy slave among those that eat at thy own table. What righteousness, therefore, have I yet to cry any more unto the king?
Mem Out of the mouth of the most High proceeds not evil and good?
Then Jesus said unto Peter, Put up thy sword into the sheath; the cup which my Father has given me, shall I not drink it?
rejoicing in hope, patient in tribulation, constant in prayer,
Furthermore, we have had fathers of our flesh who corrected us, and we gave them reverence; is it not much better to be in subjection to the Father of spirits, and we shall live?
Take, my brethren, the prophets, who have spoken in the name of the Lord, for an example of suffering affliction, and of patience.
In all this
In all this Job did not sin nor charge God with folly.
I said, I will take heed to my ways that I sin not with my tongue: I will keep my mouth with a bit while the wicked is against me.
For the sin of their mouth and the words of their lips, let them even be taken in their pride; they shall be subject to weakness and to a curse.
O generation of vipers, how can ye, being evil, speak good things? For out of the abundance of the heart the mouth speaks.
For we all offend in many things. If any man offends not in word, the same is a perfect man, and able also to govern the whole body with restraint.

THE SUN PARADE & THE CONGRESS
Friday 2/12 - A fabulous co-bill featuring
THE SUN PARADE
$10 advance / $12 at the door
8:30 doors / 9:00 show (The Congress @ 9PM / The Sun Parade @10:30)
Western Massachusetts' rising grunge-pop artists The Sun Parade -- "crafting the kinds of traditional guitar-pop songs that people might still be singing 50 years down the road (National Public Radio)" -- are touring four cities in New York and New England in February to introduce friends and fans at some of their favorite venues to their new Southern 'mates, The Congress.
The Congress is a Virginia-based four-piece, equal parts rock & roll, old-school soul, and outlaw country. Founded by Scott Lane and Jonathan Meadows, the band falls under the influence of the diverse music of their hometown of Richmond, where the spirit of jazz, prevails with infusions of r&b, neo-soul, punk rock, and Appalachian harmonies. The Congress has been living in Denver, Colorado for several years but moved back to Richmond in 2015 and is touring on the East Coast and recording a second LP.
The Congress and The Sun Parade have come together as part of the unofficial alumni association of rising bands who've toured in support of the national pop-music phenomenon Lake Street Dive.
Lake Street Dive once said, of The Sun Parade: They smack your buttocks with the utmost loving intent and rock n roll tenderness."
Here's The Congress on "Take It To The Limit" with Lake Street Dive: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mSdJ8KH1X_w&feature=youtu.be
The two bands' first show together is Thursday, February 4th in The Sun Parade's hometown, Northampton, Massachusetts, and presented by Signature Sounds. Their second is February 11th at the Lizard Lounge in Cambridge, where The Sun Parade held residency in November. Friday, February 12th is Rockwood Music Hall, the first venue The Sun Parade played in New York City and recent "Memory Lane" tour venue for Lake Street Dive. February 13th is the Bearsville Theatre in Woodstock.
The Sun Parade calls its music "grunge-soaked powerpop" and lists, among its influences, The Beatles, Dr. Dog, Elliot Smith, Neil Young, Tame Impala, Lee "Scratch" Perry and bluegrass brother harmonies.
The title track of The Sun Parade's recent EP Heart's Out was chosen for National Public Radio's Songs We Love. [Full article:
The Sun Parade is on the new Artist Development roster of the label Signature Sounds, whose recording artists include Lake Street Dive, Crooked Still, Josh Ritter, Chris Smither, and And The Kids. The Sun Parade has recently toured in support of Lake Street Dive and And The Kids, opened for Dr. Dog, and held residencies at Radio Bean in Burlington, Vermont, and the Lizard Lounge in Cambridge, Massachusetts. Their third release is due out this summer.
In addition to touring with Lake Street Dive, the Congress has toured in support of Tedeschi Trucks Band and Hard Working Americans,

UCSB (11-5, 2-1 Big West) jumped out to a 15-5 lead just over 7 minutes into the game and, although the Matadors battled back into the game, they never fully recovered.
The Gauchos took a 34-28 advantage into the break before Northridge opened the second half with an 11-2 run to take a 39-36 lead with 17:59 to play. UCSB responded with a 13-0 run and CSUN (10-9, 2-2) never got closer than down six again.
Alan Williams led the Gauchos with 16 points while Michael Bryson added 15 on 6-of-8 shooting. Taran Brown and Sam Beeler added 12 and 10 points, respectively.
Josh Green paced the Matadors with 27 points. Stephen Maxwell finished with 18 points and 10 rebounds.

Newton man charged with Sparta DWI crash
SPARTA – A Newton man is facing a drunk driving charge after a hit and run accident in a convenience store parking lot, police said.
At 11:50 p.m. on Tuesday, police were dispatched to the Quick Chek convenience store on Sparta Avenue after a report came in about a hit and run motor vehicle accident.
A woman told police that a white work van had backed into her vehicle and then fled the scene, police said.
The woman was able to provide a description of the van and Officer Tom Snyder saw the vehicle, a 2007 Chevrolet van, on Sparta Junction and stopped it, police said.
Snyder spoke to the driver, Robert T. Oglesby, 29, of Newton, and determined he might be under the influence of alcohol.
Oglesby was given a series of Field Sobriety Tests which he failed so he was placed under arrest for driving while intoxicated.
While officers were securing his vehicle, they discovered a small plastic bag containing marijuana in plain view in the center console.
Oglesby was charged with driving while intoxicated, leaving the scene of an accident, failure to report an accident, careless driving, controlled dangerous substance in a motor vehicle, failure to change address and cracked windshield. He was also charged with possession of under 50 grams of marijuana and possession of drug paraphernalia.
He was released several hours later to a sober adult pending a court date.

Jack Smith just skipped the DC Circuit to ask for cert on Trump’s absolutely immunity claim.
Here’s the argument Smith gives for taking the case directly:
A cornerstone of our constitutional order is that no person is above the law. The force of that principle is at its zenith where, as here, a grand jury has accused a former President of committing federal crimes to subvert the peaceful transfer of power to his lawfully elected successor. Nothing could be more vital to our democracy than that a President who abuses the electoral system to remain in office is held accountable for criminal conduct. Yet respondent has asserted that the Constitution accords him absolute immunity from prosecution. The Constitution’s text, structure, and history lend no support to that novel claim. This Court has accorded civil immunity for a President’s actions within the outer perimeter of his official responsibilities, see Nixon v. Fitzgerald, 457 U.S. 731 (1982), and the Executive Branch has long held the view that a sitting President cannot be indicted while in office. But those principles cannot be extended to provide the absolute shield from criminal liability that respondent, a former President, asserts. Neither the separation of powers nor respondent’s acquittal in impeachment proceedings lifts him above the reach of federal criminal law. Like other citizens, he is accountable for criminal conduct.
The United States recognizes that this is an extraordinary request. This is an extraordinary case. The Court should grant certiorari and set a briefing schedule that would permit this case to be argued and resolved as promptly as possible.
Posting this here for now. I’ll update in a bit.
An interesting detail: Michael Dreeben somehow snuck into Jack Smith’s office. He was Mueller’s appellate guy.

Calcasieu Parish Students Eligible To Eat Free Next School Year
The Calcasieu Parish School Board (CPSB) has announced all CPSB students are eligible to eat free for the upcoming 2021-2022 school year.
This will be a big relief for many parents who are barely making ends meet while trying to recover from all the storms we have had in Southwest Louisiana over the past year.
According to Holly Holland with the Calcasieu Parish School Board,
This development comes after the United States Department of Agriculture deemed all CPSB schools qualified for the Community Eligibility Provision due to the recent events faced by our community.
What a relief for students and their families, right? One less thing to have to stress about for the upcoming school year. Is there something you need to do to make sure your students will receive the free breakfast and lunches?
According to the CPSB, there is no action necessary for students or parents to take to participate. Also, families who normally complete meal applications will not need to fill them out for the upcoming year.
This will save families a ton of money, especially if they have more than one or two students enrolled. We are happy to spread some good news to you today.

Keanu Reeves blew us away with 2014’s John Wick, and now, we’re thinking he’s back again.
It was the exact movie Reeves is made for. Wick is a straight up badass, someone who’s done some bad in his life, but you root for anyways. In the first film, he retired but when a gangster’s son broke into Wick’s house, stole his car, and killed his dog, he had to get revenge. The gang leader was fearful when the name John Wick was even mentioned. Now, in ‘John Wick: Chapter 2’, John wants out of the assassin business, but it’s not that easy. There’s a large bounty on his head and everyone wants to collect.
In the above interview go behind the scenes of ‘John Wick: Chapter 2’ where Laurence Fishburne tells us how he got to work with Keanu again (they worked together years ago on The Matrix franchise), Ruby Rose talks about Keanu’s chill but professionalism, Common says what he loves about working with Reeves, and Keanu Reeves tells us what he loves about the franchise as well as the action.
John Wick, Chapter 2 is in theaters on February 10, 2017.

A new range of more powerful, torquier and more frugal V6 and V8 petrol engines will be introduced across the Mercedes range from autumn this year.
The headline changes for the V6 are a new narrow-angle block and for the V8 a reduction in capacity mated to twin-turbo induction.
Both vee-engines also get third-generation direct injection with piezo-electric injectors, revised combustion, multi-spark ignition and low-friction ancillaries to cut fuel consumption by up to 24 per cent.
Major changes are wrought to the V8, which gets a new, smaller-capacity block of 4.6 litres, reduced by 15 per cent from the 5.4 litres of its predecessor, together with the addition of twin turbochargers, arranged with one blower for each bank of cylinders.
Peak power goes up to 429bhp, a 12 per increase, while torque is boosted 32 per cent to a whopping 516lb ft.
“The driver experiences the same pleasant and effortless performance from the new V8 as that delivered by a mighty, naturally aspirated 7.0-litre engine,” says Mercedes.
In the CL500 - the launch model this autumn - fuel economy improves by 22 per cent to 29.7mpg, with CO2 dropping by an equally impressive percentage to 224g/km.
The addition of turbos also spread the V8’s torque delivery across a wide rev range, Mercedes claiming that the “driver perceives no turbo lag” and that “an outstanding 442lb ft is available between 1600 and 4750rpm”.
The new V6 will feature in the S350 from the autumn and the CL350 from the winter. A significant change is a new block, which moves from a 90-degree vee angle to a more ideal 60-degree vee, which reduces vibration and allows Merc to drop the balancer shaft, cutting weight.
Still naturally aspirated, the 3499cc V6 nevertheless matches power and torque increases with better fuel economy and lower emissions.
Stop-start technology, which cuts consumption in traffic, is employed for the first time on a multi-cylinder Merc engine.
Peak output rises to 301bhp, up from 268hp, while torque rises to 272lb ft from 258lb ft. Merc says this torque peak is available from 3500rpm up to the 5250rpm red line.
But the major improvements are to fuel economy and CO2 output. In the bulky S350, the new V6 is claimed to be capable of 37.1mpg - a 24 per cent improvement - and 177g/km.
“These figures make the new V6 the benchmark in its segment for a comparable output,” says Mercedes.

Recent studies of Joyce's Dubliners have focused on the many ingenious strategies of dissimulation played upon the reader by Joyce or by his narrators. Rhetorical traps abound in each story luring readers into simplistic and erroneous views of what is really going on. Even though much light has been shed on Joyce's intricate techniques of storytelling, significant aspects of these stories remain in the dark. While the veracity of Joyce's narrators is constantly being evaluated, the veracity of Joyce's characters is less frequently called to account.
Perhaps it is oversimplistic to point out that Ignatius Gallaher, in "A Little Cloud," desperately attempting to reassert dominance over Chandler, lies outrageously at a climactic moment in Corless's restaurant when he crows: "I've only to say the word and to-morrow I can have the woman and the cash. You don't believe it? Well, I know it. There are hundreds—what am I saying?—thousands of rich Germans and Jews, rotten with money, that'd be only too glad . . ." (D 81). Critics have generally refrained from discussing this passage simply because the frantic prevarications are so obvious as to make analysis unnecessary. However, in "Two Gallants," in a similar context, another passage demands closer attention than it has yet received. When the disreputable Corley disparages one particular "girl" from his past, most critics are content to accept the veracity of his claim. The claim, however, demands investigation.
"Two Gallants" and "A Little Cloud" were written in sequence in early 1906, becoming the thirteenth and fourteenth stories completed. Joyce felt that these were two of the finest stories in the collection. On May 20, 1906, he wrote to the publisher Grant Richards that "Two Gallants" "is one of the most important stories in the book. I would rather sacrifice five of the others (which I could name) than this one. It is the story (after [End Page 266] "Ivy Day in the Committee Room") which pleases me most" (LI 62). Later in October, he wrote Stanislaus that "a page of 'A Little Cloud' pleases more than all my verses" (LII 182). That Joyce enjoyed especially this disreputable pair of scoundrels can be inferred from his December 3, 1906, letter to Stanislaus contrasting the social niceties of a Thomas Hardy story with his own scrupulous realism: "Is this as near as T. H. can get to life, I wonder? O my poor fledglings, poor Corley, poor Ignatius Gallaher" (SL 137).
Characters in Dubliners frequently fictionalize their own existence in response to a variety of external and internal pressures. Maria, in "Clay," for example, a spinster with no intimate emotional bonds, needs to feel loved by others and this creates an inner psychic structure in which she has control—and is needed.1 The line "Everyone was so fond of Maria" ("Clay," 100) is hardly an objective appraisal of the esteem in which she is held. It is Maria's own appraisal—a necessary self-serving assertion of the fictional reality she has molded for herself. From one cherished snippet of memory, "One day the Matron had said to her:—Maria you are a veritable peacemaker" (99), Maria constructs a wildly improbable scenario in which she becomes absolutely indispensable as the loving mother hen of the Dublin by Lamplight laundry, "always sent for when the women quarreled . . . and always succeed[ing] in making peace" (99, emphasis mine). Can anyone visualize this reticent "very, very small person" (99) always succeeding in quelling the riots that were bound to break out at a halfway house for criminal women? Not surprisingly, Maria later finds it impossible to achieve her goal of "making peace" between the two feuding Donnelly brothers. But instead of dwelling on her failure, Maria just brushes it off as if nothing has happened.
In Dubliners, as in life, people deceive others to valorize themselves and they deceive themselves in order to exorcize the inner demons that haunt them. Such is the case with Corley and his description of one specific woman from "off the South Circular" (52). Apparently, Corley has spent much of this evening...

text: OK, AVP's concept, such as it is, of pitting two of cinema's most known monsters against each other in mortal combat (not Mortal Kombat) began back in the day as a graphic novel. A graphic novel is a comic book of allegedly higher aesthetic and narrative value not necessarily aimed at little kids. However, even a comic book would be embarrassed at the setup here in which these two cinematic make-up and effects legends duke it out. Any teenager who reads Fangoria magazine could have dreamed this one up. And hell, who cares what he excuses are, we just want to see the Aliens and Predators run amok, which they do.

The excitement about the December 20 release of Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker is getting to all of us. Samsung also seems to be taken by this, since they’ve announced the release of a special edition of Galaxy Note 10+.
The Note has a really cool light-sabre type red S Pen. The body is black, with a First Order emblem on the back and red trim on the buttons and around the camera. It comes in a Kylo Ren-themed box, along with black Galaxy Buds with a red inner casing, a Ren-themed leather phone case, and a Ren-themed ‘metal badge’.
The phone will come with exclusive Star Wars-themed wallpapers, shutdown animations, icons, and sounds. As far as specifications go, it’s pretty much the standard Galaxy Note 10+. It has a dynamic AMOLED capacitative touchscreen, is 6.3 inches, runs on Android 9, and has fingerprint recognition with compass and barometer.
It will be available from December 10 in the USA, at a price of $1,299.99, which is a little steeper than the regular 10+, which sells at $839.99. Even so, it’s pretty reasonable for passionate enthusiasts of the Star Wars franchise. Samsung says the model will be available in Australia, Denmark, Finland, France, Germany, Hong Kong, Korea, Norway, Russia, Spain, Sweden, Turkey, UAE, the UK, apart from the US. This is just a part of the Samsung and Lucasfilm collaboration; the two also worked together on a holiday campaign film.

Receptor, Bradykinin B1
A subtype of BRADYKININ RECEPTOR that is induced in response to INFLAMMATION. It may play a role in chronic inflammation and has a high specificity for KININS lacking the C-terminal ARGININE such as des-Arg(10)-kallidin and des-Arg(9)-bradykinin. The receptor is coupled to G-PROTEIN, GQ-G11 ALPHA FAMILY and G-PROTEIN, GI-GO ALPHA FAMILY signaling proteins.
A system of metabolic interactions by products produced in the distal nephron of the KIDNEY. These products include KALLIKREIN; KININS; KININASE I; KININASE II; and ENKEPHALINASE. This system participates in the control of renal functions. It interacts with the RENIN-ANGIOTENSIN-ALDOSTERONE SYSTEM to regulate BLOOD PRESSURE, generation of PROSTAGLANDINS, release of VASOPRESSINS, and WATER-ELECTROLYTE BALANCE.
A generic term used to describe a group of polypeptides with related chemical structures and pharmacological properties that are widely distributed in nature. These peptides are AUTACOIDS that act locally to produce pain, vasodilatation, increased vascular permeability, and the synthesis of prostaglandins. Thus, they comprise a subset of the large number of mediators that contribute to the inflammatory response. (From Goodman and Gilman's The Pharmacologic Basis of Therapeutics, 8th ed, p588)
Proteolytic enzymes from the serine endopeptidase family found in normal blood and urine. Specifically, Kallikreins are potent vasodilators and hypotensives and increase vascular permeability and affect smooth muscle. They act as infertility agents in men. Three forms are recognized, PLASMA KALLIKREIN (EC 188.8.131.52), TISSUE KALLIKREIN (EC 184.108.40.206), and PROSTATE-SPECIFIC ANTIGEN (EC 220.127.116.11).
Ulcer that occurs in the regions of the GASTROINTESTINAL TRACT which come into contact with GASTRIC JUICE containing PEPSIN and GASTRIC ACID. It occurs when there are defects in the MUCOSA barrier. The common forms of peptic ulcers are associated with HELICOBACTER PYLORI and the consumption of nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDS).
Carcinoma, Non-Small-Cell Lung

Antigens, Tumor-Associated, Carbohydrate
INFLAMMATION of the LIVER in humans caused by a member of the ORTHOHEPADNAVIRUS genus, HEPATITIS B VIRUS. It is primarily transmitted by parenteral exposure, such as transfusion of contaminated blood or blood products, but can also be transmitted via sexual or intimate personal contact.
Hepatitis B Surface Antigens
Those hepatitis B antigens found on the surface of the Dane particle and on the 20 nm spherical and tubular particles. Several subspecificities of the surface antigen are known. These were formerly called the Australia antigen.
Hepatitis B virus
The type species of the genus ORTHOHEPADNAVIRUS which causes human HEPATITIS B and is also apparently a causal agent in human HEPATOCELLULAR CARCINOMA. The Dane particle is an intact hepatitis virion, named after its discoverer. Non-infectious spherical and tubular particles are also seen in the serum.
Hepatitis B Antibodies
Antibodies to the HEPATITIS B ANTIGENS, including antibodies to the surface (Australia) and core of the Dane particle and those to the "e" antigens.
INFLAMMATION of the LIVER in humans caused by HEPATITIS C VIRUS, a single-stranded RNA virus. Its incubation period is 30-90 days. Hepatitis C is transmitted primarily by contaminated blood parenterally, and is often associated with transfusion and intravenous drug abuse. However, in a significant number of cases, the source of hepatitis C infection is unknown.
Leukemia, Myeloid, Acute
Active immunization where vaccine is administered for therapeutic or preventive purposes. This can include administration of immunopotentiating agents such as BCG vaccine and Corynebacterium parvum as well as biological response modifiers such as interferons, interleukins, and colony-stimulating factors in order to directly stimulate the immune system.
A tumor derived from mesothelial tissue (peritoneum, pleura, pericardium). It appears as broad sheets of cells, with some regions containing spindle-shaped, sarcoma-like cells and other regions showing adenomatous patterns. Pleural mesotheliomas have been linked to exposure to asbestos. (Dorland, 27th ed)
Receptor, IGF Type 1
A protein-tyrosine kinase receptor that is closely related in structure to the INSULIN RECEPTOR. Although commonly referred to as the IGF-I receptor, it binds both IGF-I and IGF-II with high affinity. It is comprised of a tetramer of two alpha and two beta subunits which are derived from cleavage of a single precursor protein. The beta subunit contains an intrinsic tyrosine kinase domain.
Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor A
The original member of the family of endothelial cell growth factors referred to as VASCULAR ENDOTHELIAL GROWTH FACTORS. Vascular endothelial growth factor-A was originally isolated from tumor cells and referred to as "tumor angiogenesis factor" and "vascular permeability factor". Although expressed at high levels in certain tumor-derived cells it is produced by a wide variety of cell types. In addition to stimulating vascular growth and vascular permeability it may play a role in stimulating VASODILATION via NITRIC OXIDE-dependent pathways. Alternative splicing of the mRNA for vascular endothelial growth factor A results in several isoforms of the protein being produced.
Receptors, Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor
A family of closely related RECEPTOR PROTEIN-TYROSINE KINASES that bind vascular endothelial growth factors. They share a cluster of seven extracellular Ig-like domains which are important for ligand binding. They are highly expressed in vascular endothelial cells and are critical for the physiological and pathological growth, development and maintenance of blood and lymphatic vessels.
Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor Receptor-2
A 200-230-kDa tyrosine kinase receptor for vascular endothelial growth factors found primarily in endothelial and hematopoietic cells and their precursors. VEGFR-2 is important for vascular and hematopoietic development, and mediates almost all endothelial cell responses to VEGF.
Vascular Endothelial Growth Factors
A family of angiogenic proteins that are closely-related to VASCULAR ENDOTHELIAL GROWTH FACTOR A. They play an important role in the growth and differentiation of vascular as well as lymphatic endothelial cells.
Neoplasms of the thin serous membrane that envelopes the lungs and lines the thoracic cavity. Pleural neoplasms are exceedingly rare and are usually not diagnosed until they are advanced because in the early stages they produce no symptoms.
Lymphoma, T-Cell, Peripheral
A group of malignant lymphomas thought to derive from peripheral T-lymphocytes in lymph nodes and other nonlymphoid sites. They include a broad spectrum of lymphocyte morphology, but in all instances express T-cell markers admixed with epithelioid histiocytes, plasma cells, and eosinophils. Although markedly similar to large-cell immunoblastic lymphoma (LYMPHOMA, LARGE-CELL, IMMUNOBLASTIC), this group's unique features warrant separate treatment.
Lymphoma, T-Cell, Cutaneous
A group of lymphomas exhibiting clonal expansion of malignant T-lymphocytes arrested at varying stages of differentiation as well as malignant infiltration of the skin. MYCOSIS FUNGOIDES; SEZARY SYNDROME; LYMPHOMATOID PAPULOSIS; and PRIMARY CUTANEOUS ANAPLASTIC LARGE CELL LYMPHOMA are the best characterized of these disorders.
Enzyme-Linked Immunosorbent Assay
An immunoassay utilizing an antibody labeled with an enzyme marker such as horseradish peroxidase. While either the enzyme or the antibody is bound to an immunosorbent substrate, they both retain their biologic activity; the change in enzyme activity as a result of the enzyme-antibody-antigen reaction is proportional to the concentration of the antigen and can be measured spectrophotometrically or with the naked eye. Many variations of the method have been developed.
Bibliography as Topic
Discussion of lists of works, documents or other publications, usually with some relationship between them, e.g., by a given author, on a given subject, or published in a given place, and differing from a catalog in that its contents are restricted to holdings of a single collection, library, or group of libraries. (from The ALA Glossary of Library and Information Science, 1983)

Back again for one more take on the Valentine Challenge with my pal, Ashley!
So meet today’s card.
A super sweet friend sent me the Pure Innocence Blowing Kissses stamp set and die from My Favorite Things to play with. (Thank you so stinking much, super sweet friend!!!!) I couldn’t resist pulling it out and using this weekend while crafting with friends during a Super Bowl/Scrapper Bowl party. 😉
I created that background on the kraft card with the help of a “retired” stencil (also from MFT). I just placed it on card at an angle and then sponged a little ink on top. I often like to ink up a whole card front when using a stencil but wanted to live dangerously (so to speak) and only do part of this one. I think it turned out pretty nice. I also sponged a little ink (lightly) onto the card for the girl to stand on. The shadow that inking creates is always good for grounding an image.
Keeping in line with the “kisses” sentiment, I used some heart dies to act like kisses for my card. I also added a few dots with white Nuvo Crystal Drops to the design. I sure like the dimension they always add to a card without adding any real bulk.
Alright! That’s it for today. Be sure to hop on by Ashley’s blog-a-roo to see her latest take on the challenge.
I’m back with another card to share with you!
Meet today’s card.
Created this guy with the new Breakfast Puns stamp set. My friend, Mendi, just released it along with a bunch of other new products for Sunny Studio Stamps. She was so kind to hook me with up a few of her new products early for my birthday last month. (Thank you, Mendi!)
I couldn’t resist making a quick card with this little coffee cup. Happy face + coffee = can’t go wrong in my world.
Cut the banners and rectangle with a couple dies from My Favorite Things. And the patterned papers are just from my scrap box. Really trying to use my scraps, rather than hoard them, get frustrated to have so many and then recycle them so I can start fresh…. wink. Can you relate?
Added a few extra dots to the card with some red enamel dots (from Simple Stories) and my trusty bottle of white Nuvo Crystal Drops. Those white dots are kinda of light, but they are there. You are going to have to trust me!
Alright! That’s it for today. I’ll be back again later, gators! Thanks, as always, for stopping by!
Just sharing a card I started last week and finished up this week, just in time for Easter.
The sweet girl + basket and the words are from Pretty Pink Posh, as are the sequins. Let’s be honest: I’m not the best color’er, but, good gosh, people, I try. I colored her in with markers and then added a few extra details with colored pencils and a white gel pen + some Glossy Accents and a Wink of Stella glitter pen (it’s subtle but there on the ears). I think she turned out alright.
The banner was cut with a die from Lawn Fawn (LOVE IT), and the patterned paper is from a stack of paper from My Favorite Things. Crazy thing. I colored the girl in first and went looking for patterned paper. I discovered that I am COMPLETELY lacking in purple patterned papers so I was totally lucky to find this piece in my MFT stash. I guess I could have went to the craft store (Oh, the horror! Hee!) to find something else, but I decided I could make do. Yep. Make do. (Translation: Not allowing myself to be tempted at the craft store by all the other stuff at the craft store seemed like a good idea at the time… because… seriously… who goes for one piece of paper and leaves with just one piece of paper? Not I, people. Not I. Anyhoo, I digress.)
Alright, friends. This is what I have for the day!
Thanks, as always, for stopping by. Always a treat when you do.
Another day. Another crack at this year’s Christmas Card Challenge with Ashley!
Just continued having some stamp-tastic fun by making this card.
I went Lawn Fawn stamp crazy… or cray cray, as some would say. 😉 I used all these stamp sets: Winter Alpaca; Happy Trails; Toboggan Together and Snow Cool. I also used the coordinating dies for all them, other than Snow Cool. Just used the sentiment and snowy pattern (at the top of the card) for that one.
The little hills in the background were cut with a die from My Favorite Things.
To make the snow pop, I once again whipped out some Nuvo Crystal Drops and added a few few dots to the snow. I think like how it just added a little bit of texture, as well as a bit of dimension too. Kinda fun!
Alright, so this is day 4 of the challenge.
Be sure to hit Ashley’s blog to see her take on this time. I’ll be back again Monday with another card based on the challenge.
Thanks, as always, for stopping by. I appreciate your kind words.
It’s Challenge time again. My friend, Ashley, and I are kicking off our annual Christmas Card Challenge!
What is it, you ask? Simple. We are trying to push each other make some cards and so here we are.
This is my first card in honor of this year’s challenge. 🙂
The mouse and words are from the Unity’s Merry, Moe & Joe stamp set. It is one of my favorite Christmas stamp sets out there this year. Just. So. Cute. And different. I like different than the same old.
Cut the rectangle and half circle elements with the Blueprints 21 Die-namics from My Favorite Things. The Blueprint dies remain some of my fave because you get a lot of practical, useful dies in each set. Go, MFT!
You might be wondering about the white snowy stuff. I created those little dots with some of Nuvo Crystal Dots. A repetitive process and yet an easy peasy process.
Overall, I got to admit: This card feels a little bit like a hot mess. I mean, there’s a lot going on for a “normal Teri” card but it’s OK. Sometimes, it’s more about having fun than being perfect-o. Actually, a lot the times it is. 🙂
Alright. That’s what I have. Be back again later, gators. And stop by Ashley’s blog to see her take on today’s challenge.
Another day. Another crack at the Halloween Card Challenge with my pal, Ashley.
Just having some fun this time by mixing together some different products I had on hand. The words and stars are from the Frightfully Fun Halloween stamp set from My Favorite Things, while the cute critter and accessories are from the Meowlloween set from Mama Elephant.
I wanted to do something I haven’t done in awhile so I stamped the images on kraft cardstock and then colored them in with colored pencils. Once I did that, I whipped out my old friend, Gamsol, to blend the colors together.
I also used some black and white Nuvo Crystal Drops to do a little embellishing. Love that stuff because it looks like enamel dots, only it’s not. Love that.
Alright, that is what I have. Be sure to swing by Ashley’s blog to see what’s she has for you today. And I’ll be back again soon. Thanks for stopping by.
(Looking for my Essentials by Ellen Blog Hop post? It’s the post right below this one. Scroll down or click here.)
Ashley and I are back at with our Birthday Card Challenge. Our posting days are a bit unpredictable but we are still doing it. So yeah. 😉
This is my take on the challenge today.
It “might” be a stretch for a birthday card but I am running with it.
The adorable bunny and words are from Avery Elle’s Pure Magic stamp set. So cute.
For the bunny’s face, I used a Copic marker to tap dots. Then I used a blender pen to tap even more dots. Then I used another Copic marker (just a shade darker) to tap even more dots. And then (one more time!) I tapped even more dots with the blender pen. If you try this at home, I warn you: Be patient. All that dotting looked kinda of lame and made me question what I had done to the poor bunny until the ink dried and then things looked good.
Wondering about the panel I stamped the bunny on? Cut that bad boy with the Blueprints 21 Die-namics from My Favorite Things. Some of my most favorite, practical dies. (Dearest friends at MFT, please keep making more of them? K, thanks. I love you guys… like a lot. Hugs, kisses and creative wishes, T)
Alright! That’s what I have.
Don’t miss Ashley’s take on the challenge. It will not disappoint. I’m sure.


text: Like many Keaton shorts, the plot is only a vehicle for Keaton to explore his imagination and to give him an opportunity to devise clever gags. When one watches a short such as this, it is important to think of it as a cartoon. It is not meant to be Citizen Kane, but only to be visually entertaining and to keep the audience guessing as to what Buster will do next. His physical comedy is wonderful here and I can't help but think that the creators of the Warner Brothers cartoons were great Buster Keaton fans. Keaton's reaction when he realizes that a burly convict whom he had just antagonized escaped from his cell and is standing right behind him is priceless, right down to Buster's cartoonish exaggerated heartbeat. This is followed by a move that would make Jackie Chan jealous. Convict 13 succeeds brilliantly at its goal and much of the humor is timeless. If you have the proper expectations, you will really enjoy this film.

American Kitsune: A Fox's Love is an upcoming Western novel series written by Brandon Varnell. The story is about a high school boy named Kevin who somehow encountered and met a female Kitsune (a fox shape-shifting humanoid) named Lilian. Part one will be released on March 15, 2014 and once out, the book will be available for sale on Amazon as paperback or eBook.
So the author provided me a sample of the novel (meaning I got to read some of the introduction chapters before the release) and I thought that the novel was quite interesting. There are some references relating to anime/manga, video games and Western TV shows (but that shouldn't really bother you if you didn't see or heard of any them). Also surprisingly, the author made himself a narrator and did a bunch of humorous things since the first chapter. As for the characters so far, their personalities are nice and would be something you'll probably see in anime/manga. In conclusion besides not spoiling, the book is overall nice and I recommend you buy it once it gets out especially if you're an anime or manga fan. You can check out the official novel Facebook page for updates.
Note: The author contacted me to promote his novel and gave me a payment which is a free copy of the novel once released besides the sample. Release date is predicted by the author.

Swindon New College teen's film aims to net the cyber bullies
“CYBER BULLYING may make you feel isolated. Speak up, you are not alone.”
This was the message behind a film made by New College student Sophie Thorne, who self harmed after being targeted by cyber bullies.
She also wanted to highlight the growing problem of cyber bullying to adults, including teachers, who may not realise how much it can affect young people.
Sophie, who started self harming after receiving hate messages including death threats, made the film entitled ‘Speak Up’ with a company called Fixers, a charity project which supports 16 to 25-year-old’s throughout the country to take action and change things for the better.
She said: “In the film, I tried to show the causes and affects of cyber bullying, and how isolated it can make you feel.
“My aim is for the older generation to understand that they need to be supportive, and even for the young people who are going through it, to understand that there is someone you can speak to about it.
“I hope that teachers will realise the need to be more supportive. A lot of people aren’t aware of it but it happens so often.”
During the film showing, Sophie was joined by Carney Bonner, who featured on a Channel 4 documentary about when he was cyber-bullied.
He has now started up his own charity to support young people who are being bullied.
“I decided to make an animation because to me, it was the best way to get across my point of how people are affected by cyber bullying,” said Sophie.
“Doing a project with Fixers has really boosted my confidence with speaking out about my personal experience.
“I have met some lovely and inspiring people along my journey.
“I hope that it will go far and help lots of other young people going through it.”
Before the film, Sophie talked about her experience and how she hopes the film will impact others to take action and recognise the signs of someone being cyber-bullied.
She now hopes to take the film out to local schools and share her experiences even further.

PED Sensor Testing Now Available For Genix Test Unit
Published on 9th October 2018
add2 is happy to announce further enhancements to our Genix Test Unit to include PED sensor testing.
The GTU is a testing solution that provides the means of performing a number of electrical and communications tests for a range of electronic components within sub-assemblies, such as bumpers and spoilers, at the end of the production line.
Following the manufacture of these sub-assemblies, it is important to ensure that the correct components have been fitted, fully connected, and with the specified engineering revisions to avoid production line delays or costly product recalls. So it is crucial to ensure these sensors are tested correctly.
A Pedestrian (PED) sensor reacts to collisions in order to improve pedestrian safety in the event of an accident. This is comprised of two pressure sensors attached at either end of a plastic tube fitted along the width of the bumper, which when compressed causes the bonnet to loosen automatically. Until recently, we would provide a separate sensor test unit for testing PED sensors, alongside the GTU.
PED sensor testing has now been incorporated into the GTU to provide a cost-effective test solution for automotive manufacturers. The GTU can now test these sensors by using an actuator to squeeze the pressure tube, simulating a traffic incident, and communicating with the sensors to ensure that the pressure is being detected at each end.
The GTU is capable of testing a wide range of sensors and electronics in sub-assemblies such as bumpers, spoilers and door modules alongside PED sensors, including:
- AK or HP Parking Assistance Sensors
- Single or Parallel wired Gesture Sensors
- Switches – for door and window locks
- Tweeter speaker – door open warnings, for example
- Intelligent Switch Packs – functionality such as mirror adjustment, via LIN
Leave your details below to receive a copy of the latest GTU leaflet:
About Genix Test Unit
The Genix Test Unit helps engineers to ensure that the correct components are present, of the correct engineering revision and that they function as designed.
The system tests the presence and functionality of electrical components immediately after manufacture, following instructions given by the PLC of the assembly station.
Common devices tested include parking sensors, gesture sensors, PED sensors, cameras and lamps within vehicle bumpers, spoilers and door modules.
So, GTU helps vehicle sub-assembly manufacturers to verify electrical components and mitigate against the risk of delivering faulty equipment.
If you’d like more information on our other products, why not create an account for free? Members gain access to a range of documentation including brochures, manuals and software updates.
More information on the Genix Test Unit is available here.
