If ever there was a no-brainer logo, it is the one for Sondheim on Sondheim. Why is that you ask? Well, first, let's be completely honest. This new musical revue is aimed at a very specific audience or two.
Maybe (with its poster credits) you are a diva fan and are looking forward to one or both of the divas above the title. Let's face it, Vanessa Williams is a great talent - singing, acting, and she has Sondheim cred, what with starring in the revival of Into the Woods. Then there is Barbara Cook, not just a diva, but a living Broadway legend who is as scarce on the Broadway stage as Angela Lansbury used to be. (And while we are being completely honest, how many more chances are we going to get to see La Cook live on stage?)
The Divas in Question
Barbara Cook's Onstage Connection
Vannesa Williams in Into the Woods
But it is more likely that you are a fan of Mr. Sondheim, the current toast of the town, with several celebrations scheduled to celebrate his 80 genius years on this earth. And this logo gives you just what you can expect from the show. Somehow, between numbers, Mr. Sondheim will be seen and/or heard commenting on his works and career. So he is directly involved, hence the logic of putting him in the photo, shy, crooked smile with just a hint of arrogance and all. And, if you are like me - a devout Sondheim-ite, you are aware of pretty much every show, revival, revue and celebration associated with the man.
The Logo in Question
And, if you are like me, your first reaction to the mish-mash of letters that form the second "Sondheim" was to try and figure out which, if any, previous logo they come from. Admit it...I'm right! And, like Sondheim's works, I assume that the letters were carefully selected and ordered with the same attention to detail as his most complicated lyrics. The logo, like the lyrics, might just be a shrewd combination of carefully and artfully arranged - full of layers - but all fulfilling a simple purpose. The lyrics tell a story or illuminate a character or set the scene.
A Fan Collage of Sondheim Logos
And the logo does just that, too. Isn't the scene, the story and the character what we hope to get from the title character himself when we go see Sondheim on Sondheim?

ABLE REGAIN -
Robotic exoskeleton for gait training with intensive neurorehabilitation after stroke
Universitat Politècnica de Catalunya (Barcelona), Spain
Every year, 15 million people worldwide suffer a stroke (1 in 6 people will have a stroke in their lifetime). Stroke is the leading cause of movement disability in the US and Europe.
Robotic exoskeletons may enhance post-stroke gait rehabilitation. However, current exoskeletons are expensive (€40,000 - €150,000), bulky (5kg – 23kg) and require clinical supervision. Hence, they are only found in large clinical institutions and patients cannot benefit from their use once they are discharged.
ABLE REGAIN will be an ultra-light, easy-to-use and affordable solution to rehabilitate gait after stroke in a continuum of care process, from the hospital to home. The technology aims to enhance motor function recovery, with early mobilization and progressive, repetitive and intensive gait training, while promoting patient’s reintegration into the community and improving their quality of life.

The page was updated April 2, 2021, to link to the most recent version of the NCSC grants matrix.
In response to the COVID-19 pandemic, civil courts across the country are moving quickly to incorporate new technologies and remote services so they can serve the public with fewer courthouse visits. But many jurisdictions face significant funding challenges in implementing such changes.
At a Sept. 9 webinar hosted by The Pew Charitable Trusts for court officials and other civil justice stakeholders, panelists discussed state-administered federal funds—known as pass-through funding—available to states and territories. Those resources include block grants and money appropriated through the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security (CARES) Act. Speakers offered tips for court administrators seeking such funding to boost remote capabilities or to ensure safety in court facilities.
Speakers stressed the opportunities to use the pass-through money to support technology innovations and other tools and services to benefit civil court users and emphasized how changes made in response to the pandemic can help courts better serve their communities once the health emergency has abated.
Karen Ann Lash, director of the Justice in Government Project, highlighted a sampling of funding opportunities authorized under the CARES Act. Those include the Coronavirus Relief Fund (CRF), typically administered by state executive branches, and the Coronavirus Emergency Supplemental Funding program, administered by state and local Edward Byrne Memorial Justice Assistance Grant managers already in place.
During the webinar, court administrators from New Hampshire and New Mexico spoke about their experiences applying for, or exploring whether to apply for, some of these funds. Jacqueline Waters, director of the New Hampshire e-Court program, said her state’s judicial branch had received $1.5 million in CRF money to expand cleaning and sanitizing services, provide additional personal protective equipment (PPE) for court users and staff, and support projects that leverage technology to expand teleworking and public access to court proceedings.
Aja Brooks, who directs the Center for Self Help and Dispute Resolution for the 2nd Judicial District Court in Albuquerque, New Mexico, detailed her court’s work considering whether to seek Community Development Block Grant funds. Although the court ultimately decided not to pursue the funding, Brooks spoke about the process, including insights into what technical assistance officials received, what factors influenced their decision not to pursue the funding, and how the process will shape future funding pursuits.
Advice for courts seeking funding
Attendees asked panelists about strategies for seeking funding, managing the federal grants, and other concerns.
Some had questions about limitations on particular sources. For example, CRF can be used only for “necessary expenditures incurred due to” COVID-19 that were not already accounted for in the government’s budget approved as of March 27, and that were incurred between March 1 and Dec. 30, 2020. Still, even with that deadline approaching, Lash encouraged court officials and their legal partners to explore tapping this source. Some states may still have unobligated funds, she said, while others could discover in October or November that some of their original subgrantees are unable to spend their full awards.
“Every state will still have unmet needs that meet CRF criteria,” she explained. “You want your CRF decision-makers to know what your court still needs to ensure access to justice for litigants and a safe environment for staff and the public.”
Possible late expenses linked to the pandemic could include additional videoconferencing equipment and platforms to enable remote hearings, online legal information content and e-filing capacity, and not otherwise covered PPE expenses for staff and court visitors.
Waters recommended that courts develop implementation plans to assist with grant management. These could include putting improved accounting systems and practices in place to track grant-funded expenditures to ensure full reimbursement. She also suggested that officials develop detailed implementation plans for soon-to-be-funded projects while waiting for final approvals or award notices.
“The rapid pace of developing the grant proposal may reduce time spent pre-planning your projects,” Waters cautioned. “Use the time between your submission and award notification to iteratively develop more detailed plans that factor in any new information that arises. You will be able to launch projects shortly after receiving funds if you have your detailed plans ready to go.”
Brooks’ advice focused on how courts can explore federal pass-through money. She recommended taking part in a consultation program offered by the National Center for State Courts (NCSC). Officials can schedule a free 30-minute “The Doctor Is In” consultation with NCSC staff to get individualized support.
She advised officials to meet with court stakeholders to discuss the feasibility of pursuing the federal support. They should discuss what permissions would be needed to move forward, whether the court has pursued federal funding before, and what procedures must be followed.
“We heard over and over again that we should partner with a legal services organization,’’ Brooks said. “Many courts are already working with legal services organizations, so it just comes down to being creative about how to collaborate on an idea that works for both partners.”
Resources for courts and civil justice stakeholders
In addition to this webinar, courts can use several online resources and technical assistance options. Panelists highlighted episodes of the NCSC series Tiny Chats, which discuss topics relevant to courts. The third Tiny Chat highlights state-administered federal pass-through funds available to courts. It also references a companion grants matrix that provides an overview of various funding streams.
With funding from Pew, Lash has begun assembling case studies on innovative uses of federal pass-through funds. Among the studies are examples of how courts have used AmeriCorps money and volunteers and Victims of Crime Act (VOCA) Victim Assistance Formula Grants to provide services to self-represented litigants so they do not have to navigate legal problems on their own. Those receiving VOCA funding also partner with legal aid organizations to help victims of crime find needed resources.
The funding possibilities and related resources highlighted at the webinar can help support court operations beyond the pandemic. “Long after there is a vaccine,” Lash said, “we will still need the remote technologies and innovations created during the pandemic to make securing justice more convenient, accessible, and transparent.”
Erika Rickard is a director and Casey Chiappetta is a senior associate with The Pew Charitable Trusts’ civil legal system modernization initiative.

Everybody who owns a BBQ most likely needs that they understood how to BBQ much better. Are you one of them?
Most of the time it is the small things that can turn an regular BBQ into a outstanding BBQ and right here we have compiled some BBQ suggestions to aid you go from newbie BBQer to specialist BBQer.
Idea a single: make sure your meat is at place temperature ahead of you place it on the BBQ. If small bbq grill won’t prepare dinner evenly and you stop up burning the outside the house and obtaining no heat in the centre of your meat.
Tip two: soon after you BBQ your meat make confident you allow it to relaxation in a heat spot, off the BBQ. Resting meat enables the juices that have been pushed to the centre of the meat for the duration of cooking to redistribute via the meat making certain it really is far more tender and juicy.
Suggestion a few: most BBQer’s know that you should only turn your steak when. Above turning meat on the BBQ will guide to meat that is difficult and chewy, and no one likes that.
Suggestion 4: sausages are a favourite at most BBQ’s an in nearly all situations sausages has been speared with a fork to keep away from them bursting. This is truly a BBQ no-no as when you BBQ sausages with holes you are letting the moisture escape from the meat and enabling the fat to drip on to your BBQ’s flames. Sausages conclude up getting dry and shrivelled and you chance a body fat fire at your BBQ. BBQ your sausages with out the holes and see if you can flavor the distinction.
Idea five: cleanliness is subsequent to godliness, specifically at a BBQ. Keeping your Barbecue cleanse of aged unwanted fat, useless bugs and decaying foodstuff will indicate your following BBQ will be new and clear, and friends will not be able to flavor the residue of the very last BBQ. Also, it is quite critical to know that BBQs are infamous for incidents of meals poisoning. To stay away from sick friends be cautious of cross contamination, particularly with uncooked and cooked foodstuff. Never ever place cooked foods in a place the place uncooked foodstuff was.
Idea 6: BBQs can often be the very same factor over and over – steaks, sausages, hamburgers- so why not be adventurous with your next BBQ? Attempt various varieties of dishes or even diverse types of BBQing variations, for case in point sluggish cooking, utilizing dry rubs on meat or even using tobacco. Your guests will definitely be amazed at your following BBQ.
Completely ready to use each and every of these BBQ guidelines? Then why not organise a Barbecue for next weekend. BBQing better is not challenging and by subsequent these suggestions your friends and family will undoubtedly crown you Barbecue King. But keep in mind a BBQ King is only as very good as the BBQ he cooks on so spend in a large top quality BBQ that is not going to let you down.

Financial service businesses are starting to fill up the newly named Equity Square building in downtown Sioux Falls, including a bank opening its first branch in town.


What we thought it would be a pretty normal week in the world of Apple is becoming a very important week. Following the announcement of CarPlay, now have a key movement in the directive: the Chief Financial Officer (CFO) of Apple Peter Oppenheimer is removed After 18 years of work in the company.
Will do so at the end of September, in a smooth transition that will last a few months and that will culminate with Luca Maestri (so far the VP Finance) appointed as the new CFO. Oppenheimer wanted to make it clear in the press release that “love Apple”, but that “is the time to take some time” for him and his family.
Oppenheimer will use to fulfill some dreams: live on the central coast of California and end up taking off the pilot license
Tim Cook has dedicated a few words for Oppenheimer:
Peter has been our CFO during a decade in which our annual income went from 8,000 to 171.000 million and our global influence has expanded dramatically. Your guide, leadership and experience have been instrumental to the success of Apple, not only as our CFO but also in many areas related to finances as he was ordering of additional activities to offer its assistance throughout the company. Slat raises contributions and integrity as our CFO to the CFOs of all companies.
Peter is also a good friend with whom I always knew that I could count on him. Although I am sad to see it go, I am happy knowing that takes awhile for him and his family. As we were waiting for all that we know, it has created a succession plan to ensure there is no blip on Apple.
As for Luca, the next CFO, Tim has also reviews:
Luca has more than 25 years of experience in the field of financial management, and I am confident that it will be a great CFO at Apple. When we were hiring Corporate Auditors met Luca and knew that it was going to be the successor of Peter. His contributions to Apple have already been significant during the time it takes between us and has quickly gained respect among classmates throughout the entire company.
However, the withdrawal of Apple and the desire to be with his family do not imply a total retirement to Oppenheimer. The Executive It has recently entered the Board of Directors of Goldman Sachs, even if we assume that the workload of the post will not be far it involving take care of all the finances of Apple.
Anyway, I will miss Oppenheimer. It is his voice which I always hear in the financial results press conferences that Apple held every three months, and his work ranges from the sales of the iPod until well into the revolution of the iPhone and the iPad. You can hear him last in the two upcoming results press conferences, that should take place at the end of April and at the end of July.

Formed in 1691 in the Virginia Colony, Norfolk County had originally included essentially all the area which became the towns and later cities of Norfolk, Portsmouth, and South Norfolk, but had seen its area frequently reduced as these cities added territory through annexations after 1871. Becoming an independent city was a method for the former county to stabilize borders with neighbors, as cities could not annex territory from each other.

Advil to reduce plastic in over 80 million bottles by 20%
The initiative will draw on a new barrier resin technology that reduces the amount of resin required to mold and craft the bottles, while maintaining the same barrier protection properties.
In what’s being called a first for over-the-counter (OTC) medicines, Advil maker GSK Consumer Healthcare (GSK) has announced a plan to reduce the plastic in over 80 million Advil bottles by 20%, which the company says will result in a reduction of nearly 500,000 pounds of plastic in the environment.
GSK has already begun transitioning Advil’s bottles to 20% less plastic, the company said in a news release, and by 2022, Advil will have reduced the plastic in nearly all bottles available in stores and online, with the exception of the brand’s Easy Open bottles.
In the news release, GSK officials said the initiative will draw on a new barrier resin technology that reduces the amount of resin required to mold and craft the bottles, while maintaining the same barrier protection properties. “It allows for a 20% reduction in material usage for high-density polyethylene (HDPE) bottles that will never enter the environmental waste stream, without a reduction to critical performance characteristics of the bottle,” the news release said.
“With the new technology available to us, we saw this as an opportunity to invest in the future of our brands and sustainability goals,” said Sarah McDonald, GSK’s vice president of sustainability. “The initiative is a first in the over-the-counter (OTC) medicine category, and kicks off a series of plastic reduction initiatives across the GSK product portfolio.”

Here are 14 top tips on How to Get Rid of Whiteflies naturally to keep your plants safe from these pesky pests.
These chemical-free methods on How to Get Rid of Whiteflies are sure-shot ways to keep your plants safe from getting damaged without using commercial pesticides.
Check out our article on how to get rid of Common Houseplant Pests here
What are Whiteflies?
According to a report by the University of California, whiteflies are tiny, sap-sucking insects that may become abundant in vegetables, fruits, and ornamental plantings, especially during warm weather.
Surprisingly, they do not come under the category of true flies and are closely related to other common garden pests like aphids, scales, and mealybugs.
Just like aphids, whiteflies excrete honeydew and damage leaves, making them yellow, appear dry, and eventually fall off plants.
Here is the best homemade soap recipe to kill pests
Plants Prone to Whiteflies
This list can be very long but be careful of whiteflies while growing some of the most popular plants like grapes, eggplants, okra, peppers, potatoes, tomatoes, beans, citrus, cucumbers, squash, brassicas, poinsettia, hibiscus, begonias, petunias, and roses.
How to Prevent or Get Rid of Whiteflies?
1. Spray Water or Dish Soap
The best action you can take to protect your plants from whiteflies is to remove them with a strong jet of water. A small sprayer or a garden hose will eliminate nymphs and eggs. Or, just add one tablespoon of any mild liquid dish soap to a gallon of water and spray on the affected plants. Keep doing this for some time every 3 days until all mature flies and their eggs eliminate.
Note: This will only take care of small infestations in indoor plants or the ones in a container garden on balcony or patio.
2. Keep the Foliage Clean
Use a damp, soft cloth soaked in filtered water to wipe the upper and undersides of leaves and stems to eliminate mold and honeydew. It will also help you to get rid of whiteflies eggs if there are any. If there are damaged leaves, remove carefully and toss them in a plastic bag, the undersides might contain their eggs.
Here are the best tricks to clean water stains from plants
3. Quarantine the Infested Plant
Whenever you spot an infestation, isolate the most affected plants for 2 to 4 weeks to break the cycle. Also, as a precaution, keep your new plants away from old plants for at least a couple of weeks.
This will stop all the chances of the whiteflies spreading from one plant to another.

4. Vacuum Them
Use a small, portable vacuum cleaner to carefully remove whiteflies, and make sure you do not cause any damage to the plants. Then, dispose of the bag in an outdoor dustbin. Again, this trick is practical for only small infestations of houseplants, herbs, and succulents.
5. Invite Natural Predators
Create a natural environment to attract natural enemies like green lacewings, whitefly parasite wasps, ladybugs, and dragonflies into the garden.
These helpful insects can prey on whiteflies and provide natural whitefly and aphid control.
Here are the best plants that attract ladybugs to the garden
6. Use Yellow Sticky Traps
Use yellow sticky traps to trap whiteflies for good. It is also effective against fungus gnats, thrips, and aphids. Whiteflies are attracted to the color yellow and get stuck on the gum-like substance.
7. Apply Insecticidal Soap
For a heavy indoor or outdoor infestation, apply insecticidal soap or make your own by combining 1-2 tablespoons of castile soap and half a teaspoon of edible oil in a gallon of water.
Mix well and spray on the affected area of the plant. It will help suffocate the whiteflies and kill them. For garden plants, apply right before sunset or early morning and repeat if necessary.

8. Try Neem Oil
Neem oil is very effective against whiteflies. Make a foliar spray to kill the whiteflies by mixing one teaspoon of neem oil in 1 liter of water. If you want to make it more powerful, add 4-5 wee bit drops of liquid soap. Shake well and apply to the foliage to eliminate these pests. Do this once or twice a week for 2 weeks.
Here are the best neem oil uses in the garden
9. Earthworm Castings
You can apply earthworm castings to repel whiteflies. The casting dissolves the outer layer or skin of the whiteflies, killing them eventually. Also, when the castings decompose, it acts as a healthy, organic fertilizer.

10. Grow Plants that Repel Pests
Another easy and safer option to keep the whiteflies away from the affected plants is growing plants that repel whiteflies.
These plants include parsley, basil, mint, cilantro, chives, onion, dill, zinnias, nasturtiums, marigolds, pineapple sage, bee balm, and hummingbird brush.
Here are the best plants that repel aphids
11. Add Reflective Mulch
Cover the ground around the plants susceptible to whiteflies like peppers and tomatoes using metallic fabric mulch. The reflective substance appears confusing to these insects, and they stay away from the spot.

12. Use Wood Ash
Dust wood ash on the affected plants and all the surrounding areas where you spot whiteflies. The ash will dehydrate and suffocate them in no time. This amazing trick will also help in controlling aphids and mealybugs in no time.
Check out the best wood ash uses here
13. Kill with Baking Soda
Add 1/3 teaspoon baking soda, 6-7 drops of liquid soap, and half a teaspoon of vegetable oil to half a liter of warm water. Stir well and spray it where ever you spot whiteflies infestation. It will kill them in no time.
Have a look at the Baking Soda uses in the garden here
14. Use Milk Powder
Add 3-4 teaspoons of milk powder to a liter of water and spray it on the affected areas. You can also apply diluted milk with water in a 1:1 ratio and spray where you spot whitefly or aphid infestation on plants.
A study also states the application of milk can reduce pest infestation by almost 30-40%.

Chicken With Wild Rice
This meal was adapted from the recipe Wild Rice and Chicken Salad in The Sonoma Diet. It was a cold dish with a vinaigrette dressing. I made mine into a warm dish w/o the oil and vinegar.
Entree: Chicken with Wild Rice. Onions and garlic were sauteed. I then added chicken broth and apple juice. The wild rice cooked in this mixture. I roasted the chicken breasts in a little olive oil. When the rice was finished I then tossed in the cubed apple, sage, and pecans.

This morning, as I sought inspiration and confidence to proceed with being vulnerable in front of a screen on FaceBook live, I came to my mat, my hands went to my lap and instinctively found Bhairava Mudra. As I sat in meditation my mind began to shift and focus. Afterwards any apprehension I had about going live on Facebook to lead my Movement and Meditation Class had faded,
Per Alison Denicola in Mudras For Awakening the Energy Body,Bhairava Mudra: "Assists: Unity, Freedom, Liberation... Benefits: all systems of the body. Supports inner stillness and courage, Releases Fear."
Right now Releasing Fear and promoting togetherness sounds pretty good to me!
To perform Bhairava Mudra, sit comfortably with the spine elongated, rest the left hand in the lap facing up, lay the right over the left palm up. Allow the thumbs to tough. Relax the shoulders.
Yogapedia explains Bhairava Mudra~
" Bhairava mudra is considered a natural gesture that brings harmony to the body’s energy flow during meditation and pranayama practice. When the hand positions are reversed (where the left hand is positioned on top of the right hand), it is believed to activate consciousness and manifestation."
I look forward to seeing you on the mat this week as we explore Bhairava Mudra during our yoga practice!

"Four couples stayed for three nights to attend a family wedding in New Orleans. It provided private rooms for each couple. Only change we would have made was giving bedroom by kitchen to early risers instead of late sleepers. Not a problem with house just our planning. We used public transportation to get Around town. Went to French quarter, city park, Audubon park. Bought bus day pass for $3.00/day for unlimited use/day. Daily Bus pass can be used for streetcars And bus. We walked to grocery store for breakfast and lunch supplies. It worked out well for us. When using bus we did allowed extra time since traffic made a difference with buses being on time. Bus riders were helpful and very friendly. Loved the local culture. The owners were available for help via phone when we had two questions. Beds comfortable. Kitchen well stocked. We sat in back yard for wine late afternoon before heading out for evening. Each time we had a nice breeze. I would recommend this home."

"We stayed at the Dryades house for a family wedding. The location is easy access to the Quarter via street car, directly across the street from Charlie's Steak House and a few blocks away from a small shopping and restaurant area on Freret St. We had room for two other couples and once again thoroughly enjoyed our stay! This was our 3rd visit. Can't wait to come back."

"Dryades House and Suite were perfectly suited to our needs and worked out very well. Like any older homes, (especially in New Orleans where nothing is level) upkeep is imperative and you have done a good job. The house is clean, the kitchen and bathrooms are clean. And it was quieter than I thought given Charlie's restaurant being across the street. Your location is fabulous . . . parking wasn't horrible as I feared since there is no driveway. Only once did we have to park around the corner, otherwise we parked right in front of the house or nearly so. I recommend anyone to rent the house or suite . . . together they worked well for our party of 6. Since our daughter is working in NOLA for another year, we may be in touch!! Thanks."

A recent jury verdict against The Goodyear Tire and Rubber Company and Goodyear Canada of $22 million for workers exposed to asbestos in the 1970s is a sign of the potential future litigation that will be brought against companies for ignoring the devastating effects, the Bradenton Herald reports.
Boston Mesothelioma Lawyers believe now is the time to act if you or a loved one inhaled asbestos for years at work, in an old building or in years of service in the U.S. military. This incurable cancer acts slowly and quickly at the same time.
As someone exposed to asbestos continually inhales its microscopic fibers day after day and year after year, the fibers travel through the blood system before depositing on the lining of major organs such as the lungs and heart. There, they cultivate for years and sometimes decades before causing health problems. Many workers from the 1960s and 1970s have had few symptoms over the last 30 or 40 years but are now being diagnosed with mesothelioma or other asbestos-related illnesses. And after diagnosis, the median time to live is only 12 months. Short-term exposure to asbestos has also been linked to mesothelioma.
Sadly, many companies and businesses were aware of the dangers of asbestos, but continued using the substance because of its durability, cost and usefulness. And even as more and more facts came out over the years about the deadly substance, companies were resistant to renovating their buildings and old factories, leaving workers at risk.
In this case, two workers were exposed to asbestos in gaskets while working as steamfitters between 1969 and 1973 and a number of upstate New York job sites near Buffalo. Goodyear manufactured sheet gasket material that contained asbestos.
One of the men was diagnosed with lung cancer and was awarded $11.6 million for pain and suffering and $1.9 million to his widow. The jury found the companies 42 percent responsible for his lung cancer, though he smoked.
As for the other man, the jury found the companies 12 percent responsible for the lung cancer, though he, too, smoked. His family was awarded $8.5 million in pain and suffering.
These are large numbers and they show that the jury believed the company ignored the risks of asbestos and still used the material in their buildings. And for these two men, it became fatal.
More and more of these cases are popping up across the country because baby boomers exposed to asbestos are now being diagnosed and are seeking lawsuits to take care of their families. But it is crucial to act quickly if one has been diagnosed with mesothelioma.
These cases require sometimes years of research to detail the facts and put together a case in court. But our firm is committed to helping those who have unjustly been exposed to asbestos that has caused painful and life-threatening illnesses.
Jeffrey Glassman Injury Lawyers provide representation of mesothelioma victims who have been unlawfully exposed to asbestos in Boston and the surrounding areas. Call (617) 777-7777 for a free and confidential consultation to discuss your rights.

It’s true; the media have the power to destroy. But their real job is to uphold truth, accountability and transparency; to inform the people; and to investigate and shine a light on wrongdoing.
Today’s media are struggling to remain afloat. Challenged by blogs and Web sites, and accused of shallowness and bias, traditional media are scrambling to remain relevant and to retain readership. Many have cut space and reporting staff and now depend heavily on wire reports. Basic principles of journalism have been ground into dust under the need to satisfy advertisers and allies. It’s become convenient for media to use “stories” already written by government agencies (including school districts) and corporations. In return, the agencies ask for favorable coverage, which they get.
Interrupting this symbiotic relationship are the citizens. We depend on the media to spend time and money looking into things that sometimes make the media’s allies and advertisers uncomfortable. But when the media refuse to investigate, they’re failing in their prime directives.
Over the last year, media response to multiple attacks on transparent government at state and federal levels was muted. As the Department of Justice argued to be able to lie about the existence of records, as the Department of Education ignored multiple Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) requests about its activities, as the Washington governor argued to be able to withhold records based on “executive privilege,” and as various legislators pushed to basically eliminate the Public Records Act in Washington State – our media outlets – champions of transparency and ethics in others – were virtually silent.
A leaner and more efficient government will not be the result of eliminating laws that promote a transparent or open government (sometimes known as “Sunshine Laws”). Secrecy corrupts, and corruption wants secrecy. The American government is to be “by the people” and “for the people.” Citizens have the inherent right and constitutional right to know what our government is doing. Without laws ensuring open government, we’re likely to wind up with a fascist government.
So far, Washington State has been a leader in open government. In 1972, voters passed Initiative 276, mandating that government agencies provide government records to the public when asked to do so. In 2005, this law was strengthened and encapsulated in the Public Records Act, RCW 42.56. According to the Attorney General, this law is based on three important principles:
- The people of this state do not yield their sovereignty to the agencies that serve them.
- The people, in delegating authority, do not give their public servants the right to decide what is good for the people to know and what is not good for them to know.
- The people insist on remaining informed so that they may maintain control over the instruments that they have created.
For example, board directors of Spokane Public Schools made it a 2012 Legislative Priority to de facto toss out the PRA by making it too expensive for most citizens. They asked Senator Lisa Brown to sponsor legislation that would charge citizens the costs of responding to requests for public records.
Senator Brown obliged by introducing SB 6576, which would have required that all school districts charge citizens for (whatever the districts claim are) personnel costs to research, compile and copy public records. But those employees already receive a salary, paid for by taxpayers. What sense would it make for citizens to pay that money again? This action seems spiteful and obstructive. Most private citizens can’t afford the costs associated with making a public records request. Senator Brown’s bill was introduced Feb. 1, with a public hearing Feb. 6, the day after Super Bowl Sunday. Her timing eliminated the ability of most citizens to attend. The bill didn’t pass this year, but a Spokane administrator said they might try again next year.
Also introduced this year were SB 6351 and companion bill HB 2677. Tucked into a bill that pertains to inmates, the language of these bills applies to all citizens. The bills would have allowed all public agencies to threaten the public with injunctions against records requests, to file for injunctions, to limit time spent on fulfilling requests, and to refuse to fulfill further requests from certain requesters.
Also introduced were SB 5062 and companion bill HB 1139. These bills would have removed penalties for the failure of a public agency to provide records, as long as the agency provided the missing records within 30 days of being notified that the records are missing. Requesters would have to KNOW which records were missing. These bills would have allowed public agencies to decline to provide pertinent records, betting that most citizens would not discover that records were missing.
Agencies claimed that they’re overwhelmed with requests or that they’re being targeted by abusive requesters with a vendetta. But a Spokane Public Schools administrator has publicly implied that two citizens who each filed a single request are abusive.
I, too, was implied to be abusive. For more than five years, I’ve done my best to find out what this district is doing with our dollars and our children. Local media seem disinclined to investigate the district, so if I am to be informed and accurate and to NOT spread misinformation, then I must obtain public records. At some point in 2011, it seemed that the district was redirecting all of my requests to Associate Superintendent Mark Anderson. Even a request for a simple report went through him. My polite questioning of this new policy was futile. Anderson told me: “Because of the many laws that regulate disclosure of public documents, I hope you will understand and respect the reasons why the District strives for uniformity and consistency in the intake and processing of record requests.”
Not true. The process for me has not been the process for everyone. Some requesters must go through Anderson; others don’t. Some are threatened with an injunction against their request; others aren’t.
The Public Records Act says agencies must provide the most timely response possible, and the fullest assistance. But, with some requests, Spokane Public Schools now purposefully prints out electronic records, then painstakingly scans them into a PDF. With some requests, the district now withholds records while it notifies thousands of citizens about the request and tells them they can 1) file for an injunction and 2) call the district for more information.
Are you getting the picture? The school district appears to have purposefully made the process more difficult for itself and for select citizen requesters. Now, it complains about how difficult the process is.
The Public Disclosure Commission (which oversees election activity) and the Attorney General’s Office (which oversees the PRA) do not typically initiate legal action against agencies for violations. It’s up to the citizens. Although the PDC and AGO are accommodating and professional, there is no local agency that offers advice or guidance. Citizens must do the best they can to request public records and to file formal complaints. It takes uncommon knowledge, effort and time to do it well.
If push comes to shove, citizens stand little chance against the government’s lawyers, who ironically are paid with taxpayer dollars. It takes knowledge to navigate the laws, and skill and money to navigate the legal system. It isn’t a fair or reasonable battle. Most people will give up, and I suspect that’s the point. Considering the foregoing, those who are willing to wade into the fray should be praised, not attacked, particularly if a public agency goes out of its way to be intimidating or to threaten or bully requesters.
In a Feb. 15, 2012, article, Inlander reporter Nicholas Deshais gave school district administrators the opportunity to publicly imply that three local citizens, including yours truly, are abusive requesters. Deshais wrote:
No kidding. It wouldn’t be smart of Roloff to criticize people who support school district positions. In fact, it’s probably smarter of her to nominate them for an award.
Meanwhile, in a March 2012 commentary, the SR’s Shawn Vestal wrote that some “opposition” to the school district seems “less than fully hinged.” Vestal called my work “conspiracy-minded” and “poorly informed” – oh, the irony. He suggested that these efforts are a “fishing expedition” and a “paper chase” over some “vast, vague conspiracy.” Then he gave a grudging acknowledgment that I might nevertheless have managed to stumble over something worth discussing – along the lines of “Even a blind hog finds an acorn once in a while.”
Vestal didn’t acknowledge that the newspaper has refused for years to properly investigate the school district. He didn’t say whether he has filed any requests (if it was just one, he’s on par with two of the citizens he criticized), nor did he mention fellow reporter Jody Lawrence-Turner’s numerous requests of the district for data, information and story ideas. Vestal also declined to mention the media’s failed “fishing expedition” last year on local teacher Jennifer Walther. (Convenient, that.)
I haven’t claimed a conspiracy. Vestal suggested I did and then criticized me for it. I also didn’t “object” to being called “a conservative.” In an email, I asked him to support his description of me, which he failed to adequately do. I’ve never actually spoken with Vestal. Why would I? I don’t see him as being on the side of truth, fairness, accuracy or the people.
A school-district employee told me last week that these records requests seem like a “waste of time.” I assure you they are not. Ensuring a transparent government is never a “waste of time.” Two of the records requests have led to a formal investigation by the Public Disclosure Commission.
I will continue to do the job Vestal and so many of his media colleagues are refusing to do. Information is power, and We, the People must have that power. Knowledge is critical to maintaining a free country, particularly in today’s time, when so many in the media appear to see the government as the victim and the people as the problem.
Here is some information on Washington State’s Public Records Act. It’s a people’s initiative, there for the citizens. Even if the media don’t value it, We the People must.
From the Attorney General’s Web site: “Citizens can control their government only if they remain informed about the decisions their government officials are making. That important principle underlies Washington's open public records and meeting laws. The laws, which are now more than three decades old, are intended to give us an informed electorate that can evaluate the performance of elected officials and in order to ensure an honest, competent and responsive government.”
For directions on public records requests, see the AG Web site. The Public Records Act applies to all government agencies, not just to school districts. It helps citizens hold their city, their county, their Public Health District, or any other public agency accountable for its actions.
Please help defend open government in this country. Do not allow our government agencies to conduct the people’s business in secret, as we pay their salaries and entrust them with our children.
If you want to know more about RCW 42.56, the Public Disclosure Commission, public records requests, the records requests I’ve filed, or why I’m doing what I’m doing, please write to me at email@example.com.

The artificial smiles, the spewing lies,
The uninterested lovers, and partners in crime,
The "must focus" and pushes as the way to the door,
The success of our futures is what we were here for,
The years of force, the years of pain, the years they endorse,
"Stay in, stay close, search for those to stand by, and please do remember your years will shove by,
You are here to be patient, you are here to get by, you are here for the prospect, please be kind."
The words they repeated, the ones for our ears
The ones from the others, the hurt and our fears
Not only the pain to come from the outside, to add on and to worsen was the moments of I
The stressings, the panics, the screaming and yells,
They were all for me, too, why didn't anyone tell?
As the end came near, I realised, the real lies,
These weren't what was to happen, these weren't what they told,
The lies of the future, the lies of the old,
But when it came down to those years in the air,
I yelled with my lungs,
"FUCK IT" in the air.
Those words were my lesson at the end of the day
Fuck it to all, and fuck what may.

Freelance Editing &Writer Coaching
I have a passion for good writing and I know what writers need because I am an award-winning author of 12 novels and numerous shorter works, and am a full member of SFWA (Science Fiction and Fantasy Writers Association)
I have a BA in English, Writing Option from Penn State University, and have since taken writing classes, seminars, and webinars from Donald Maass, Eric Witchey, Elizabeth Lyon, Charles de Lint, Lorin Oberweger, Charles Vogler, and others. (I once drove to Idaho and couch-surfed with a complete stranger in order to attend a seminar taught by David Farland.)
I learned more than I can say from the late Mary Rosenblum, a respected author, editor, and teacher who edited my books from 2013 until her tragic death in 2018. I model my editing style on hers and sometimes feel like she is looking over my shoulder as I work. I have been a writing panelist at events such as Orycon and Gear Con for almost a decade. I have been editing on a freelance basis for Wyrd Goat Press for several years, but and have recently made myself available more widely.
I explain my changes as I go; I want you to understand not only what changes are needed to make this book better, but come away with knowledge that will improve all your future works, whether you bring them to me for editing or go another route. Since I charge by the hour, I am able to be very flexible to meet your needs. I encourage you to start with a sample edit of 10,000 words or so. Not only does that give you an idea of how much an edit of a full manuscript would cost, but it gives you a chance to go back to your manuscript, should you choose, and apply what you learned from the sample edit to fix issues in your manuscript so that the rest of the edit goes more quickly and costs you less.
Some of the things my clients have said about me:
" I can highly recommend Shawna Reppert. I recently worked with her on a short story of mine and was impressed with her skill, suggestions, and professionalism. I look forward to working with her in the future. "
"You worked so fast, I can’t believe how detailed your edits are. I’m still working my way through them.
Some make me chuckle (What does “that” refer to here? The grammatically logical answer would be cat-watching.), some make me think, some make me smile because you really got me and rephrased what I was trying to say, only much better." (This client sold her very first short story to an anthology after working with me!)
My rates are $50/hour. I feel charging by the hour is more fair than charging by the word or by the page, since some manuscripts need more help than others. (If you are determined to pay by the word, you can look me up in Fiverr under Shawna R, since they forced me to price that way, but be aware you may end up paying more since I estimated my prices based on a worse-case scenario.)
I am happy to work with any genre, but my particular strengths are fantasy, urban fantasy, paranormal, steampunk, and mystery.
I am also available for writer coaching at the same rate. I am happy to talk about teaching classes in a space you provide at a negotiable total rate that depends on travel time and prep time. For example, a First Pages workshop where the pages are read aloud and then discussed would cost only $50/hour plus travel, split among participants. Feel free to reach out to discuss ideas. I am also willing to discuss teaching short classes or meet-the-author sessions on a pro bono session for local-to-me libraries or other non-profits.
I also have a YouTube channel, Shawna the Word Witch, where I offer writing advice.

Cardiff City arrange Watford friendly after Dutch camp
Last updated on .From the section Football
Cardiff City will host newly promoted Premier League side Watford in a pre-season friendly on Tuesday, 28 July.
Three days later, the Bluebirds visit last season's Championship title winners, Bournemouth, for their final friendly before the new season starts.
Russell Slade's team begin their pre-season campaign at Forest Green on 15 July before visiting Shrewsbury Town on 18 July.
Cardiff have also arranged a week-long training camp in the Netherlands.
They will play two games against Dutch sides during the camp, which begins on Monday, 20 July, although the club have yet to announce the opponents.


The subcompact hatchbacks might not offer best-in-class efficiency or the most powerful of engines; it neither wins the cargo room war nor does it sport a class-leading set of features. Yet, it does all of the above more than admirably and offers a well-rounded package of perks that simply can’t be overlooked. It especially excels in the cargo room department where its folding rear seat does wonders. When fully folded down, Honda’s Magic Seat increases the Fit’s starting 16.6 cubic feet of cargo space to a whopping 52.7 cubes. Magic seat indeed.

ASOS is doing its part to eradicate modern slavery and shed further light on the issues at hand.
The U.K.-based fashion e-tailer joined forces with the British High Commission in Mauritius to bring together local and international reps this week to discuss ways to combat modern slavery and improve working conditions by managing labor relations in Mauritius and globally.
The discussions, which took place in Port Louis, Mauritius, are part of ASOS’ ongoing commitment to combating modern slavery. Presentations from Mauritian and Bangladeshi governments, the International Labour Organization, the IndustriALL Union, the Ethical Trading Initiative and Anti-Slavery International were part of the event. And executives from fashion brands manufacturing in Mauritius, including Adidas, zLabels, Puma, Woolworths and Whistles, were in attendance.
“We’re grateful for the support of the British High Commission, the Mauritian and Bangladeshi governments and the many other speakers and guests attending today’s event,” Simon Platts, sourcing director at ASOS said. “The hope is that by sharing experience and expertise, we can encourage efforts to prevent exploitation during recruitment, and engage governments to effectively enforce legislation to protect migrant workers. Ultimately we believe this collective approach will help to protect the rights of workers in Mauritius, particularly those who are most vulnerable.”
The British High Commission is in full support of these discussions as part of the U.K.’s commitment to ending modern slavery, a top foreign policy priority for Prime Minister Theresa May.
“The U.K. government is committed to the eradication of all forms of forced labor and is supportive of initiatives to ensure that migrant workers working in factories and plants are not in situations of debt bondage,” said British High commissioner to Mauritius Keith Allan, also a speaker at the event.
ASOS’ Modern Slavery Statement and the commitments contained within are key components of ASOS’ Ethical Trade Strategy, which is designed to improve the company’s business practices to help deal with human rights impacts in its global supply chain and make workers aware of their fundamental rights.
In collaboration with labor rights organization Verité, Asos reviewed its 11 factories in Mauritius and found evidence of systemic labor violations, including debt bondage linked to the recruitment of migrant workers. Following those findings, Asos released its first Modern Slavery Statement in line with U.K. legislation, where it declared its commitment to eliminating modern slavery from its supply chain.
In an effort to strengthen the implementation of international labor standards, Asos last October became the first e-commerce brand to sign a global framework agreement with IndustriALL, the world’s largest sectorial trade union organization representing 50 million workers. And next month, Asos will cohost an event at the House of Lords with Baroness Lola Young, co-chair All Party Parliamentary Group on Ethics and Sustainability in Fashion and Anti-Slavery International, to identify and address shared risks in the apparel industry for its supplier base.

DICE’s upcoming Star Wars Battlefront 2 is the talk of the gaming community for good reasons. So far, fans are liking what they’ve seen in the game’s trailer, but it’s the recently revealed details that made fans even happier. There are big news regarding Star Wars Battlefront 2 DLC and it’s something fans didn’t expect from EA.
It was previously revealed by EA creative director Bernd Deimer that they are going to do away with a season pass for the game. Speaking to Mashable, Deimer said, “I cannot talk about the specifics of this, but we have something different in mind that will allow you to play longer, be [more] invested in the game without having a fragmented community.”
That being said, we’ve yet to see what EA is planning to do with the game’s post-launch additions, but there are already a few things we can expect from it. Here’s what EA might be planning to handle Star Wars Battlefront 2 DLCs.
Same With Overwatch?
Since EA is doing away with a season pass, there’s a chance that they might copy the post-launch content model of Blizzard’s Overwatch. In the popular shooter, players get the additional characters and maps for free.Thanks to this model, players are saved from having to pay extra for substantial additional content. Moreover, the community isn’t split between players who have premium maps and those who don’t. If EA is not planning to make sure that there is no fragmented community, then the best they could do is to follow in the steps of Blizzard for Overwatch.
Another idea EA might be considering is the DLC scheme of Ubisoft’s Rainbow Six Siege. Ubisoft’s shooter has added new characters and maps since the game’s release in 2015. While all the new maps are available for free, the additional characters can be purchased with in-game money or via the season pass. This model doesn’t split the player base and it allows everyone who bought the base game to acquire all the essential content without spending real money.
EA didn’t say anything about microtransactions and they could focus more on this instead of a Season Pass. Looking at Overwatch again, EA could give players the chance to unlock most of the game’s content through microtransactions. In Overwatch, players can buy loot boxes using real money.
Maps And Heroes
When it comes to what EA could add post-launch, players can expect to get a hand at some extra maps and heroes for the game. Based on the trailer, EA is going to gather content from all generations of the film franchise so players can expect quite the host of content from the developer. Fans are hoping that EA will introduce the same amount of content that the original Star Wars Battlefront 2 had.
