BERKELEY (KTVU) -- The Berkeley Police Department is crediting a citizen for tipping off the department to a possible car break-in that led to a much larger haul linked to possible narcotics sales and equipment used for identity theft.
Police Sgt. Andrew Frankel said a community member called police around 5:30 a.m. Sunday to report what they believed were three people attempting to break into a car located on the 2500 block of Durant Avenue.
"It’s unclear exactly what they were doing,” Frankel said. "Officers contacted the driver and ultimately found him in possession of narcotics."
Frankel said officers discovered the trio was not attempting to burglarize the car, but they found what they suspect were heroin, meth and a digital scale with suspected meth and marijuana residue.
The driver has been identified as Steven Manning, 35, of Oakland. Frankel said a computer check of Manning revealed he had several outstanding arrest warrants totaling $50,000. Manning was found to be in possession of suspected heroin and $2,000 in cash.
A records check of the car's passenger, identified as Meredith Rains, 32, of Oakland, showed she had an outstanding arrest warrant.
Police also arrested Rakim Washington, 46, of Berkeley. Police said he initially provided a false name to officers and was on active parole.
The three remained jailed Monday on several charges, including gun and drug violations. Police said the case remains under investigation.
Frankel said additional suspected heroin was found to be in Manning's possession when he was booked in jail. An officer then obtained a search warrant for his house on East 15th Street in Oakland.
Police said the officers seized more than 1,000 pills of five different drugs, an AR-15 assault pistol without a serial number, drug packaging materials, digital scales, dozens of rounds of ammunition, a credit card embossing machine, a card reader/writer and credit card stock.
"If you were in the identity theft business and you were manufacturing credit cards to support those identities, you would have that type of machine as well as a scanner to load information onto the card," Frankel said of the embossing machine and card reader.
He said the bust is proof that community policing works.
"It was that community tip that brought us there in the first place," he said. "We’re grateful for that information provided by a concerned member of the community. It’s a solid arrest by those officers."

Diamonds can yield clues about the Earth's interior. Image Credit: CC BY-SA 2.0 Swamibu
A tiny diamond has been found to contain a type of mineral that has, until now, never been seen in nature.
Known as calcium silicate perovskite (CaSiO3), the mineral was found inside a diamond excavated from South Africa's Cullinan mine, which is famous for the discovery of the world's largest diamond.
What makes the mineral so unusual is the fact that this is the first observable evidence of its existence in nature ever found, despite the fact that it is believed to be quite common deep inside the mantle.
While this particular diamond was found less than 1km down, scientists believe that it would have originally formed as far as 700km beneath the surface of the Eath.
"Nobody has ever managed to keep this mineral stable at the Earth's surface," said study co-author Graham Pearson. "The only possible way of preserving this mineral at the Earth's surface is when it's trapped in an unyielding container like a diamond."
Its discovery is helping scientists to better understand what lies deep down beneath our feet.
"We have this image of what we think is down there, but there's nothing like having a piece of this material in your hand," said Pearson.

Did you just recently get your wisdom teeth removed or are you doing a little research before your procedure? Well, don’t worry! Don’t get it twisted or let others steer you wrong. Wisdom tooth Extraction doesn’t have to be a painful experience and in actuality, recovery time can actually be very quick with the correct care and treatment.
What are wisdom teeth exactly? Wisdom teeth are each of the four rear molars which normally begin to appear between the ages of 18-and 21, although they have been known to appear at any time.
Once they begin to show, your dentist will determine when they should be removed. Before removal, your dentist will give you a local or general anesthetic for numbing the extraction area, depending on the individual’s pain threshold and comfort. After the tooth is removed, some patients will require stitches.
Not to worry, most of the time these stitches will dissolve in only a few days, although your dentist will give you the details.
What to do after surgery?This is where your recovery time can be sped up and where your pain can be reduced quickly.
1. Your dentist should have already instructed you to do so, but gently bite down on a gauze pad from time to time and change pads as they become absorbed with blood. It sounds a little gross but this is something you’ll have to do.
2. Do not lie flat, as it will prolong the bleeding. The faster the bleeding ceases, the faster you’ll be on your way to recovery!

Wow! I've had such a wonderful four day weekend!! I could really get used to these long holidays! Yahooo! It's been so much fun having extra time to craft!...Last night, I was in the mood to make a Christmas project. So, off I went to dig in my stash. This is sometimes where ideas begin for me...Just digging! I came across a set of Tim Holtz's new Idea-ology pieces...Woodlands. It's the one with the trees and wreath... You just gotta love these pieces! The possibilities are endless! Right next to this sat a Ball canning jar that held some jingle bells....Then it hit me! Snow Globe! LOL!
Off I went to make the a snow globe. It was so fast and easy to make that I thought I really needed to share this with you all. I'm going to make several for gifts like tomorrow...If I had more jars I would start on them tonight! LOL!! Wouldn't you know I'm in the mood to make snow globes and don't have any jars! Hahahaha! Have you noticed how many things in the fridge are plastic these days....Anyway let's get on with it! I really hope you make some of these as I think it's a great home decor piece and also a great gift... I think this came out pretty cool....I added some tiny jingle bells so when you shake the globe, it not only snows, but you hear the sound of Christmas....
OK, here we go....
Take the lid of the jar off and trace around it on a scrap of chipboard. Next, cut the circle out with Tim Holtz Scissors.
Paint the circle white with the Adirondack Snow Cap Paint Dabber. Allow to dry.
With an Inkssentials Collage Glue Stick, run the glue over the painted surface of the white disk. Next, adhere a piece of Tim Holtz Idea-ology Tissue Wrap and trim around the edges of the circle.
I'm using a Ball canning jar that I purchased from the craft store, so I adhered the disk to the flat lid and then hot glued the flat disk/lid assembly to the inside of the ring.
Die cut a Sizzix/Tim Holtz Snowflake Rosette from Tim Holtz Idea-ology Seasonal Paper Stash - Holidays Past and assemble. Next, adhere the rosette to the center of the inside lid.
Cover the Tim Holtz Woodland Tree, with glue and then glitter with glass glitter in Silver. Allow to dry... Note: My jar is a pint and did not fit the whole tree, so I used my wire cutters and nipped off the wooden base to the tree.
Glue the tree to the top of the Rosette.
Cover a piece of chipboard on the front and back with the Holidays Past Paper Stash and die cut with the Sizzix/Tim Holtz Reindeer Flight die. Ink the edges and then tie a jingle bell around the deer's neck. Apply hot glue to the bottom of the deer and adhere to the lid base.
Place a mixture of glitter glass, Mica flakes, and some tiny jingle bells into the jar. Carefully place the lid assembly down on the jar and screw tightly shut.
I painted a wooden finial, base and knobs with Adirondack Pitch Black Dabber and allowed to dry. I then went over the raised areas with a wax candle. Next, I painted all the pieces again with the Adirondack Snow Cap Dabber and allowed to dry. Last, I lightly sanded the pieces with sandpaper which pulled up the white paint where the wax resist was used.
Glue the feet to the base, the base to the jar lid and the finial to the top...VOILA!!!! A really cool snow globe perfect for your Christmas decorations or a great gift! What do ya think?
Thanks tons for coming by!

What a cute project!! Now, where are those mason jars I have stashed?? :)ReplyDelete
Thanks for the tutorial!

Just beautiful, Jim!ReplyDelete
Love this! I have been wanting to do something with Mason Jars.ReplyDelete
Only YOU, Jim, only YOU!!ReplyDelete
This, as are all your creations, is just sublime! Such a genius idea. I would never think to glue parts to lid, would have struggled away, trying to see how to get them inside jar. That of course would not work. Not to mention, idea would never have come to me in 1st place.
Only YOU.... :) x
Wowsers Jim this is stunning I love it a great gift or Christmas ornament fabReplyDelete
My goodness... you've done it again... so amazing! I love this idea!ReplyDelete
So cool! What a fun gift. You must have a great stash of those wood pieces as you pull them out as the perfect finishing touch to your creations, ha, ha. Thanks.ReplyDelete
Love! I have used that Tim deer die several times in the past week. It's my baby! hee hee Seriously, this is a wonderful vintage-look project and I really like it!ReplyDelete
Such a great idea. I saw one of these on Pinterest. She laminated her images, and then actually put liquid into the jar. Very cool!ReplyDelete
love your snowglobe. I'm gonna make one for myself.ReplyDelete
What a great and genius idea for a lovely gift...Perfect for my friends...Thanks for all the cool tips...I love how you figure out all the troublesome details... I certainly will try my version soon!ReplyDelete
To cute for words!!!! Going to make this with my granddaughter!!!ReplyDelete
That is adorable! I am going to make a couple with flowers for my kitchen window! Thanks for sharing your great mind with us!ReplyDelete
Great idea. TFS your talents! Merry Christmas! Hugs,LindaReplyDelete


Turlock’s earliest Assyrian church, set for demolition, was saved this week by the efforts of Turlock Mayor John Lazar.
“I couldn’t see it being torn down,” Lazar said. “It was part of Turlock’s history.”
The church, initially built in 1923 for Assyrians of all denominations, became the site of Crane Elementary School when sold to the Turlock Unified School District in the 1950s. For years, the building was used as the school cafeteria.
Even as Crane Elementary School’s mission changed in recent years, shifting from a traditional elementary to a kindergarten-only facility and then into the site of TUSD’s Head Start preschool program, the building remained a campus fixture. But the newest plan – to repurpose the campus as the eCademy charter school beginning in fall 2011 – calls for the demolition of the old cafeteria as part of a $2.65 million makeover, approved by the TUSD Board Trustees on Aug. 24, 2010.
As Lazar attended that school board meeting, he remembered the building’s roots as an Assyrian church.
“I had recalled my father had told me that was the church he had attended when he was young, and my grandparents too,” Lazar said, who remembered watching home movies showing the church in the building.
Lazar, along with Turlocker Mike Warda, decided to call the TUSD and ask for a temporary reprieve for the building, so that he might be able to move the building to a new home. The district agreed, and on Wednesday the movers came in.
On Thursday, the building was wheeled, ever so slowly, to St. Addai Assyrian Church of the East on Monte Vista Avenue. The new church agreed to house the old church on their land, plunking it down in a parcel initially reserved for the pastor’s home.
The permanent site could yet move, Lazar said, depending on the church’s space needs. But Lazar has high hopes for the former church, which still appears to feature the original wooden roof and floor.
Lazar hopes to turn the building into a museum for Turlock’s Assyrian churches, uniting members of the various Assyrian faiths to create a lasting monument open to all Turlockers.
“Whether or not you’re Assyrian, you’re going to appreciate the building,” Lazar said.
There’s much work still to be done. First, while Lazar and Warda paid most of the moving costs, some yet remain. Then it’s the hard work of organizing volunteers and refurbishing the old church house.
But, for Lazar, the hard work will be worth it.
“I’m very sentimental. I love history, and I love Turlock history and this means a lot to me,” Lazar said.

Msida and TA Xbiex are those neighbourhoods in Malta where most of the locals live and work â€“ so itâ€™s not the area where tourists are usually Â around. Doesnâ€™t mean those areas havenâ€™t nice corners too.
I lived in Msida. Right away I shall note it is among the most unattractive area when it comes to a tidy housing or clean streets. But as you may know from following my Instagram feed Iâ€™m somehow into those places wildly developed by time and life – nicely decorated by the peopleâ€™s clothes for drying, different generations of cables along the facades, and the busy streets including vegetable sellers placing their products in most funny ways (like on the bonnet of a car) or elderly people sitting in front of their houses watching the street life. I would say thatâ€™s Msida.
Well-fitting to that – the small backyard farm right under the balcony of the apartment where I found my place. There was busy life going on. Gangs of cats climbing the stone walls, small rabbits chasing each other (unfortunately a delicacy in Malta), pigeons in variable formations circulating around the block and a cock crowing so penetrant and waking me up each day at 5 am. Sometimes I dreamed about twisting his neckâ€¦ just kidding :-). Thatâ€™s the way the small farm below my balcony looked likeâ€¦
At the same time, and unfortunately somehow connected, especial around the mentioned neighbourhoods, but almost over the entire island, you will find dirt and garbage. Dirt like dog poop on the sidewalks at every other step you take and smelling trash bags placed in front of the houses (not at least because thatâ€™s the official way the rubbish gets removed). Supposedly there is no other way to deal with such mentality as many locals are quite ignorant when it comes to recycling. Perhaps a question of time to change. Too often I witnessed situations where people got rid of their trash directly on the street, like itâ€™s the most normal thing one can do. Being careless is not only a matter of garbage; once I watched a construction worker trying to route people around a freshly cemented sidewalk. Most people followed his advice. Wellâ€¦ except one women with a dog throwing the evil eye and the explanation â€˜I donâ€™t careâ€™ towards the worker. Poor dog with cement paws thenâ€¦ I was shocked by her rudeness, but her â€˜I donâ€™t careâ€™ statement followed me throughout my stay, becoming a running gag for myself explaining the things I evidenced. Its just a shame – not at least because Malta is such a wonderful island!
Yes, there is unquestionable plenty of beauty too, so letâ€™s move to the positive ;-). Back to Msida street life and my favourite places. First and foremost there is the Parish Church of Saint Joseph. A beautiful baroque building overwhelmingly decorated with hundreds (maybe thousands?) of lights. As I lived on the upper floor of a building directly behind the church I could watch the beautifully illuminated church each day from my balcony. Sometimes, when there was a public holiday or something special to celebrate, and as I mentioned in my post â€˜Valletta and the Three Citiesâ€™ Â this happened too often, they transformed the church into a monument of light. Actually, Iâ€™m not that much into kitsch, but when it comes to lights I really like it. Just reminding those summer nights on the balcony with a glass of wine and watching the church â€“ was a great time.
When I was walking to work I crossed the Msida Yacht Marina. There is nothing like watching the sunrise over a harbour with hundreds of small sailing yachts and colourfully painted fisher boats right before work â€“ definitely made my day. Same scenario when on my way back homeâ€¦ of course with a dramatic sunset then. Just the right time for hanging around with an ice creamâ€¦
When walking along the Yacht Marina in Msida you will directly pass by Ta Xbiex – which took me ages to pronounce. This area starts where the harbour ends and you get to see the sea and the impressing city of Valletta in the background.
There are lots of nice restaurants directly at the sea/harbour – or even better, you can bring your own food and drinks and have a barbecue directly on the seashore. The way of living is one thing I really appreciated about the Maltese people â€“ there is nothing you can’t do. No one getting upset because of loud music or a bbq â€“ great lifestyle! Even though this is not the area with the sandy beaches, it is more than good for cooling-down after work or for a night swim. By the way, if you are into architecture, Ta Xbiex is also the place where most of the embassies are located â€“ nice buildings worth a visit.
My rÃ©sumÃ©, when in Malta, itâ€™s worth getting a glimpse of the Parish Church of Saint Joseph (especially at night), overwhelmingly shiny during holidays, surrounded by the lively, lovely, and worn-out Msida. Just grab an ice cream and enjoy the scene from the Yacht Marina side.
Cheers with sunbeams.

Part of a new series of articles we’ve been hoping to get started is a number of How To articles! The first of which will be How To Swap a Remington 700 trigger. There are a number of reasons you might want to do this, not the least of which is the less than stellar X-Mark trigger that comes on Remington 700’s from the factory. You might have heard about the recall of a large number of X-Mark triggers recently. What you probably didn’t hear is that merely sending the trigger to Remington isn’t an option, you have to send the whole rifle back. Then you have to wait for them to make the fix and return the rifle. Why not skip the hassle and swap the trigger yourself? What if you’re progressing in your shooting and you just want a nicer trigger than what comes on the gun from the factory? Well, this article is for you, then!
Swap a Remington Trigger
So how’s it done? It’s pretty simple, there’s really only one spot that can hang you up a little and even that isn’t a big deal. For starters, have a look at the rifle and the trigger assembly. I recommend a padded set of vice jaws so you can hang the action up in front of you so working on it is easier. Once you have the rifle out of the stock and in a padded set of vice jaws look at it from the non-ejection port cover side. You should see something similar to this photo.
Immediately above the shoe you can see one of the pins holding the trigger assembly in place. If you then look left you can see the second trigger pin partially obscured by the bolt stop lever. The trick is to tap those pins out. Start with the rear pin, use a 1/8th inch punch. If the pins are tight, you can use a 1/16th inch punch to get things started. Tap the rear pin out, don’t smack it and send the pin flying just tap it out. As the pin moves from the left side of the action to the right, the bolt stop and bolt stop spring will fall free. Catch them, don’t lose them! The trigger will probably drop down and hang from the front pin. Tap that out the same way! You should then have the trigger, two pins, the bolt stop, and the bolt stop spring on your counter or bench! Success you just removed the trigger!
Installing the New Trigger!
Like anything in life, taking it apart is easier than putting it back together. This isn’t that bad though. You are going to install the new trigger in reverse order from how you took the old one off. Slip the front of the trigger into the action and tap the front pin in. Which is which? Short pin goes in the front, rear pin goes in the back. Tap the pin in so the trigger hangs from the front pin like the old one did right before you removed it. Now comes the tricky part, if you can call it that. Setting up the bolt stop and spring. It’s not that bad, but it can be a PITA sometimes and it’s why custom actions all have side bolt releases. They work just as well or better and you can skip all this sillyness when doing trigger work!
The bolt stop has a big ear sticking up on the left, and a small ear on the right. This is how you should orient the bolt stop. The big ear faces toward the front of the action. The bolt stop spring has a long leg with a little ear, a loop, and a small leg with an ear. You want to orient the bolt stop spring just like this. The long leg with the ear should face the front of the action, the loop goes behind the hole in the bolt stop, and the little leg and ear will hook under the center of the action. It makes more sense once you’ve done it a few times.
Bolt Stop Bitchery
This is the only part that can be frustrating. After you have the bolt stop spring set up behind the bolt stop, you have to push them up into the slot, align both the bolt stop and spring loop with the hole for the rear pin, and push the pin in to get it started. Once you’ve got that started, you can push the pin back out, not all the way! Just enough so it doesn’t block the trigger from swinging up into place. Then you can push it back through the trigger and out the right (ejection side) of the action. You want the pins to sit flush.
If you made it this far, congratulations, you did it! You swapped the trigger on your Remington 700. I’ve done this many times and even now, that damn bolt stop and spring occasionally give me a hard time. So if it does the same for you, don’t let it get you pissed off. Walk away for a few minutes, have a beer, come back and try it again. I never thought much of it until I had a side bolt release installed on a Remington 700 action. It makes life a lot easier when you don’t even have to goof with it. The video below goes through the same process, hopefully some guys find it useful. If you have little tips or tricks for how to simplify the process, please drop them in the comments below!

This 1989 cover of Don't Make Me Over was the biggest hit for R & B singer Sybil Lynch. Most of her success was on the R & B and dance charts and in England. She was born June 2, 1965 in Paterson, NJ. She attended college at North Carolina A & T State in Greensboro and still lives there. In 1985 she was in CeCe and Company led by singer CeCe Rogers. Then Sybil went solo and signed with Next Plateau Records which was the home of pioneering female rap group Salt 'N' Pepa. So she worked with some of the same producers. My Love Is Guaranteed was her first big dance hit in 1987. Her second album Sybil in 1989 was her most successful. And her most successful singles were covers of the Burt Bacharach and Hal David classics Don't Make Me Over and Walk On By. Don't Make Me Over was Dionne Warwick's very first hit single in 1962 and began her long partnership with Bacharach and David. Sybil's cover reached #20 on the Billboard Hot 100 and #2 on the R & B Singles chart. It charted higher than the original. The record was produced by Dolores Drewry who had worked with Salt 'N' Pepa. Sybil signed with British producers Stock, Aitken & Waterman for her 1990 album Sybilization. They were a hot production team of the late 80s. Sybil had some chart success in England. But for the most part, SAW were not able to get her back to the top of the charts. You can get all of Sybil's hits on this comp. She left Next Plateau in 1993 and recorded one more album in 1997. She has released occasional singles over the years. She teaches at Guilford Technical Community College in Jamestown, NC. Here's the video for Don't Make Me Over by Sybil.

Waiting for 'Superman'
2010, PG, 102 min. Directed by Davis Guggenheim.
REVIEWED By Marjorie Baumgarten, Fri., Oct. 15, 2010
With this new documentary, director Guggenheim hopes to kick-start the national conversation about our public education system in much the same manner as he did with global warming in An Inconvenient Truth. The premise of Waiting for ‘Superman’ is that the system is broken – that public schools in America have failed to meet the needs of the last few generations of children and that the system is saddled with so many layers of bureaucracy, outdated assumptions, and institutionalized mediocrity that it is virtually impossible to fix from within. Unflattering numbers that indicate the flatlining of students' scores over the last four decades despite the increase of funds poured into the system are enhanced through the use of animated graphics. The statistics are appalling and even more troubling when looked at in terms of inner-city schools and “at risk” students. The reasons for these “failure factories” are numerous and complicated, and are predicated on educational notions that have changed little during the last 50 years. Guggenheim ably lays the groundwork that supports his argument regarding the ineptitude of our school system, and the bare facts alone should seemingly be enough to spur public action. Guggenheim goes further, however, by suggesting that charter schools – which are are funded with public and private dollars and can hire and fire whomever they please – are the answer to the problem. Extensive interview footage is included of well-known Harlem Children's Zone educator Geoffrey Canada and controversial Washington, D.C., school Chancellor Michelle Rhee (who was forced to resign this week), which additionally emphasizes the film’s biases. The teachers’ unions are painted as the primary obstacles to school reform. With detailed contracts that impede change and a tenure system that protects incompetent and underachieving teachers, the unions are dismissed as antagonists to the cause, while the reasons these protections exist are never explored or given any due. Looking only at charter schools that are achieving great results, Guggenheim structures his film around the lotteries these successful schools are required to hold annually for students looking to earn the few spots they have open. Five students in different grades and parts of the country are followed for several months until the film climaxes with heartbreaking close-ups of the children and their parents at the big event at which their futures are determined by random selection. (Structuring documentaries around big competitions has become a commonplace strategy in the wake of such films as Spellbound and The King of Kong: A Pocket Full of Quarters. For another documentary that uses this structure to explore the charter school system, look for The Lottery, which is widely available for viewing via numerous video-on-demand options.) Ultimately, it may be the case that Guggenheim is a better instigator than filmmaker, as the debate about our educational system appears to be on the upswing at present. For this, rather than all the specifics of its argument and what it leaves out, Waiting for ‘Superman’ is essential viewing.


Republican vice presidential nominee Mike Pence is meeting with Gov. Scott Walker for debate preparation in Wisconsin. While the first presidential debate between Clinton and Trump was highly anticipated, the vice presidential debate should be equally as exciting.
Obama said they - and Smith and Carlos - were among those "who paved the way" for the diversity on current USA teams. He noted that Carlos and Smith are now recognized in the newly opened museum of African American History and Culture, as is Owens.
Singh also spoke to former Prime Minister H D Deve Gowda, Congress leader Ghulam Nabi Azad, CPI-M's Sitaram Yechury and informed them about the military action on terror launch pads, official sources said. Defence sources said that the soldier, who was critically injured in the attack, was undergoing treatment at Army's Research and Referral Hospital .
The Syrian Observatory for Human Rights monitoring group said at least 45 people, among them 10 children, were killed in eastern Aleppo on Saturday. Al-Selmo of the Civil Defence said the toll was more than 100. "Instead of pursuing peace, Russian Federation and Assad make war". Kerry said they had made "a little bit of progress" on resolving their differences over the Syrian crisis.
A unified global strategy can defeat terrorism, "and if any nation refuses to join this global strategy, then we must isolate it". "The country is committed to giving a strong reply to this Pakistan-sponsored terrorism", he said asserting that it is no less than a war crime if terrorism becomes part of a government's policy.
Four people were killed and 268 others were injured in Taiwan as Typhoon Megi traveled across the island on Tuesday, according to local authorities. Megi, the 17th typhoon this year, has forced about 174,000 people in the two provinces move to safe places.

The British government on Monday decided to take back a proposal to cut taxes for citizens with incomes of £150,000 (Rs 1.3 crore) or more per year.
On September 23, Prime Minister Liz Truss had announced a programme of tax cuts and investment incentives to boost the United Kingdom’s economy. The country is currently facing an economic crisis, with many citizens struggling to cope with rising costs of living and increasing power bills.
The package announced by Truss included a tax reduction for high-earning citizens from 45% to 40%. However, several citizens and MPs from Truss’ own Conservative Party objected to the measure, leading to concerns that the policy could be voted down in Parliament, according to The Guardian.
British Chancellor of the Exchequer Kwasi Kwarteng said on Monday that the decision to cut taxes for people on incomes of £150,000 or more “has become a distraction from our overriding mission to tackle the challenges facing our country”.
He said that the government would not proceed with the abolition of the 45% tax rate. “We get it, and we have listened,” he said.
The fiscal package introduced by Truss included a total of £45billion (Rs 4.12 lakh crore) in unfunded tax cuts, reported The Guardian.
Commenting on this, the International Monetary Fund had urged British authorities to consider providing more targeted support to families and business instead of sizable tax cuts and sharply higher government spending, reported Reuters.
“Given elevated inflation pressures in many countries, including the UK, we do not recommend large and untargeted fiscal packages at this juncture, as it is important that fiscal policy does not work at cross purposes to monetary policy,” the IMF noted last week. “Furthermore, the nature of the UK measures will likely increase inequality.”

The Mid-Western Community Action Network (MWCAN) has called for a more wide-ranging study on the effects of mining proposals in the Mid-Western Region.
Council last week considered a draft consultancy brief for a study to be funded by the Department of Planning and Infrastructure, to look at the effects of mining on local and regional infrastructure in the Mudgee region.
The study will look at the how proposed mines will identify which additional services will be needed to cater for growth resulting from mining projects.
Speaking at council’s open day, MWCAN spokesman Chris Pavich said the study area should include the villages of Lue, Rylstone, Kandos, Charbon, Clandulla, Ilford and Bylong, all of which were already significantly affected by coal mining or were likely to be affected.
Mr Pavich said the study should also look the effects of limestone, rhyolite, dolomite, and magnetite mining in addition to coal mining. He also called for the effect on rail and air transport to be included in the brief as well as roads.
The study brief should include increased use of the airport, and the effect of increased use of the rail corridor on village such as Lue, Charbon and Kandos, he said.
Mr Pavich said expansion of mining would also have a significant impact on Rural Fire Service (RFS) recruitment in areas such as Wollar.
Although mines relied on the RFS to provide fire fighting services, the number of volunteers available was falling as permanent residents moved away from areas such as Wollar.
Mines’ demand for water was also likely to affect he entire region, he said.
“Libraries, sports, and children should all be mentioned in the consultancy brief,” he said.
“We also need to think about liveability in the region in 30 years time when the mines are done with us.”
Mr Pavich asked that the MWCAN, Mudgee Business Association, Kandos and Rylstone business groups, Mudgee District Environment Group, Running Street Water Users Association be included in consultation as part of the study.
A report to the Mid-Western Regional Council has also supported the inclusion of Gulgong, Rysltone and Kandos in the study.
Council deferred adoption of the consultancy brief to consider MWCAN’s comments

Life settlements: insurers have qualms about buyback rightBy Alain Thériault | March 13 2018 01:30PM
Lyne Duhaime | Photo: Réjean Meloche
The option of buying back policies to stem life settlements is putting insurers at loggerheads with their mission. Following such a path may jeopardize their reputations, warns Lyne Duhaime, president of CLHIA-Quebec.
If adopted in its current version, Quebec’s Bill 150 would allow policyholders to transfer policies to third parties. Under one of two provisions to be added to the Quebec Civil Code, insurers will be permitted to match the offer.
Not only will the changes regulate the life settlement market to prevent speculation, Duhaime points out, but insurers will also be allowed to buy back a policy for the price offered, within a given period.
“The goal was to block the trafficking of policies; we are glad that the government understood this. All the same, the proposed amendments to the Civil Code ushered in by Bill 150 create a very awkward scenario. Insurers’ priority is to ensure that insurance policies remain in force. But the bill puts the insurers in the unenviable position of having to buy back a policy despite their firm stance against this practice,” Duhaime explains.
May impact the value of estates
This provision may also decimate estate value. She gave the example of an elderly person who wants to sell her $250,000 policy to a third party, who offers $50,000. The insurer buys the policy back at that price to protect its market. As fate would have it, the insured dies the next day…
“The heirs will discover that the insurer bought a policy for $50,000 that had been worth $250,000. The estate is left with nothing. Arguing with the insurer, which, with no ill intent, just wants to conserve its market by this action, would be pointless.”
This situation may have great repercussions on the reputation of the insurer and the industry. Stories like this make the headlines, Duhaime underlines, mentioning the Samuel Archibald case.
The problem is that if the insurer does not buy back the policy, it will lose the policy to a third party. “Something needs to be adjusted there,” she says. Duhaime added that she is currently trying to convince the provincial government that life settlements deserve more than two articles in the Civil Code.

Hurricane Florence produced more extreme rainfall and was spatially larger due to human-induced climate change, a new study shows.
Previous research has suggested that human influences such as emission of greenhouse gasses that alter climate affects precipitation in extreme storms. The new research, however, is a first to use a “forecast attribution” framework that allows scientists to investigate the effect of climate change on individual storm events days in advance.
Changes in extreme weather are one of the most serious ways society experiences the effects of climate change, researchers say. Severe weather and natural disasters account for a lot of damage and have a major economic impact on areas where they happen.
In 2018, prior to the landfall of Hurricane Florence, researchers used simulations of the storm given climate change models to predict that it would be slightly more intense for a longer portion of the forecast period, rainfall amounts over the Carolinas would see a 50% increase due to climate change and warmer water temperatures, and the hurricane would be approximately 80 kilometers (50 miles) larger due to the effect of climate change on the large-scale environment around the storm.
“With our ability for additional ‘hindsight’ numerical modeling of the storm around climate change factors, we found predictions about increases in storm size and increased storm rainfall in certain areas to be accurate, even if the numbers and proportions are not exact,” says Kevin Reed, assistant professor in the School of Marine and Atmospheric Sciences at Stony Brook University.
“More importantly, this post-storm modeling around climate change illustrates that the impact of climate change on storms is here now and is not something only projected for our future.”
While the post-storm analysis did show that the storm was slightly more intense during the forecast period due to climate change—as they predicted—as measured by minimum surface pressure and near-surface winds, the finding remains the most uncertain from the hindsight model.
One key finding of the post-storm model showed that Hurricane Florence was about nine kilometers larger in mean maximum diameter due to climate change. Additionally, rainfall amounts over large ranges increased significantly.
Mean total overland rainfall amounts associated with the forecasted storm’s core increased 4.9 ± 4.6% with local maximum amounts experiencing increases of 3.8 ± 5.7% due to climate change.
Attributing climate change effects to individual storms, as researchers did with Hurricane Florence, will allow scientists to better communicate the direct impacts of climate change on extreme weather to the public, Reed says.
The research appears in Science Advances. The Stony Brook Foundation, National Science Foundation through the National Center for Atmospheric Research, and the Department of Energy’s Office of Science supported the work.

Welcome to the Center for Service, Spirituality and Social Justice!
Social justice is defined as “promoting a just society by challenging injustice and valuing diversity.” It exists when “all people share a common humanity and therefore have a right to equitable treatment, support for their human rights, and a fair allocation of community resources.” In conditions of social justice, people are “not to be discriminated against, nor their welfare and well-being constrained or prejudiced on the basis of gender, sexuality, religion, political affiliations, age, race, belief, disability, location, social class, socioeconomic circumstances, or other characteristics of background or group membership” (Toowoomba Catholic Education, 2006). CSSS seeks not only to expose students to the opportunities for service and experiencing differences in faith but also to encourage students to understand what it means to challenge injustice, support human rights and work to bring about a just society.
Orange is the color of CSSS and you might wonder, “why orange?”
The color psychology of orange is optimistic and uplifting, rejuvenating the spirit. In fact orange is so optimistic and uplifting that we should all find ways to use it in our everyday life, even if it is just an orange colored pen.
The color orange relates to social communication, stimulating two-way conversations. A warm and inviting color, it is both physically and mentally stimulating, so it gets people thinking and talking!
Orange aids in the assimilation of new ideas and frees the spirit of its limitations, giving us the freedom to be ourselves. At the same time it encourages self-respect and respect of others.

Surviving the Minecraft Servers: An Epic Journey
Minecraft has captured the hearts and imaginations of players around the world with its endless possibilities and creative gameplay. Beyond the enchanting world of single-player survival, Minecraft servers offer an entirely different experience that takes the game to new heights. These servers, operated by dedicated individuals or communities, provide opportunities for multiplayer adventures, cooperation, and competition. In this article, we will embark on an epic journey through Minecraft servers and explore the challenges, thrills, and triumphs of surviving in this dynamic multiplayer landscape.
Finding the Right Server:
The first step in your Minecraft server journey is finding the right server that aligns with your interests and playstyle. There are countless servers to choose from, each offering unique gameplay modes, themes, and communities. Whether you're seeking survival, creative building, minigames, roleplaying, or PvP battles, there's a server out there to suit your preferences. Researching server descriptions, reading player reviews, and joining server-specific forums can help you make an informed decision.
Survival Mode and the Quest for Resources:
Survival mode is a popular choice for players seeking an immersive and challenging experience on Minecraft servers. The quest for resources becomes paramount as you navigate a world filled with hostile creatures, treacherous terrain, and limited supplies. Collaborate with fellow players, establish communities, and embark on expeditions to mine precious ores, gather food, and build shelter to protect yourself from the perils of the environment.
Many Minecraft servers foster a cooperative environment, encouraging players to work together to thrive and overcome obstacles. Join forces with other players to establish villages, create intricate structures, and embark on grand adventures. Cooperation brings new possibilities, allowing for the division of labor, resource sharing, and the creation of communal spaces where players can gather, exchange ideas, and support each other.
For players seeking a more intense experience, Minecraft servers often offer competitive gameplay modes. These can range from PvP battles in custom arenas to thrilling survival games where players must outlast and outsmart their opponents. The competitive aspect adds an adrenaline-fueled twist to the Minecraft experience, testing your skills, strategy, and ability to adapt to unpredictable situations.
Creative Building and Showcasing:
Minecraft servers dedicated to creative mode provide a platform for players to unleash their imaginations and showcase their building prowess. Collaborate with others to construct magnificent cities, breathtaking landscapes, or imaginative pixel art. Showcasing your creations to the community and participating in building contests can inspire and challenge you to push the boundaries of your creativity.
Community and Social Interaction:
One of the greatest joys of Minecraft servers is the sense of community and social interaction they foster. Engage in chat conversations, join server events, and make lasting friendships with players from all walks of life. Server-specific forums or Discord channels often offer platforms for discussion, sharing of ideas, and organizing group activities. The community aspect of Minecraft servers adds depth and richness to the overall experience, making each journey through the server landscape feel like a shared adventure.
Customization and Modded Servers:
Modded Minecraft servers introduce custom modifications and add-ons that enhance gameplay and expand the possibilities of the game. From new biomes and creatures to advanced machinery and magic systems, modded servers offer unique experiences that go beyond the vanilla Minecraft world. Exploring modded servers allows players to delve into complex systems, learn new mechanics, and unlock endless creative potential.
Venturing into Minecraft servers opens up a world of adventure, creativity, and camaraderie. Whether you're seeking the challenges of survival, the thrill of competition, or the joy of collaborative building, there's a server waiting to be explored. Immerse yourself in the dynamic multiplayer landscape, forge alliances, overcome obstacles, and share unforgettable moments with fellow players. Surviving the Minecraft servers is an epic journey that promises excitement, growth, and boundless exploration. So grab your pickaxe, gather your friends, and embark on your next Minecraft adventure. The world is yours to conquer!

HOPEWELL, VA (WWBT) – Hopewell's sheriff is working to save what critics have dubbed the "Million Dollar Mile".
At issue are two stretches of I-295, where sheriff's deputies promote highway safety while generating millions in speeding fines. Now, state lawmakers have a budget amendment in place that threatens to end the program, one that isn't going over well in Hopewell.
Sheriff Greg Anderson is walking mad, and he isn't afraid to talk about the reason why.
"I am angry about what I consider to be a political vendetta," Anderson said.
Wednesday, the state Senate passed a budget amendment to take money away from the tiny city, and divert it to the state. The money is from Hopewell's often criticized speeding enforcement on I-295...the effort that generated $1.6 million last year at the expense of drivers who today had mixed opinions on it.
"This looks almost predatory," said John Fraysse of Mechanicsville.
"I think there's so many other ways that the city could raise money," said Alecia Gregg of Suffolk.
"If you don't speed they don't make money. Simple as that," said Eric Conner of Hopewell.
The state wants to put a greater portion of the money from speeding fines in its own literary fund. Sheriff Anderson argues, it's really meant to put his controversial program out of business.
"Fatalities will go up. Accidents will go up. It's gonna cost lives," Anderson said.
On the other hand, AAA believes differently, having successfully raised public awareness about Hopewell's efforts
"It takes away that huge revenue incentive that can lead law enforcement to the slippery slope, we believe, of enforcing for money and not for safety," said spokesperson Martha Meade.
Not so, says Anderson...who's making the case for safety, faster than a car speeding down the Interstate.
"When somebody attempts to bully me, they got the wrong guy. I don't back down," Anderson said.
The state budget, along with this and other amendments, will soon go to the desk of Gov. Bob McDonnell, who has the power to make changes before things become official.
AAA points out that the Hopewell Sheriff's Office generates $150,000 a month in speeding fines, but Anderson says that money goes into the city general fund and not toward pay raises within his department.

Agriculture and health sectors receiving $17 million for genomics research
By Genome CanadaFeatures Research Canada Company News Government Grants & Awards Livestock Production Livestock Research Poultry Production Production Programs Research Turkey production
Government of Canada and partners support five new projects that will help scientists work with industry to address real-world challenges through genomics research
May 26, 2017, Guelph, Ont. – Today, Parliamentary Secretary for Science, Kate Young, on behalf of the Honourable Kirsty Duncan, Minister of Science, announced $6 million in federal funding for five applied genomics projects, including one geared towards the turkey industry.
The Parliamentary Secretary made the announcement at the University of Guelph, where several of the projects’ academic partners are based.
With a total $17 million being invested, including $11 million in funds from the private sector and provincial governments, these projects will have a direct impact on Canada’s agriculture, agri-food and health-care sectors.
Four of the projects receiving funding will result in significant competitive advantages to the Canadian dairy, canola, pork and turkey industries, while the fifth project will address the problem of adverse drug reactions in the health-care system.
One of the projects being funded at the University of Guelph is Dr. Peter Pauls’ work with Benson Hill Biosystems. His research is exploring ways to significantly enhance crop productivity of canola, an important Canadian crop.
This is a perfect example of the power of genomics research, which is the field of science that studies the full set of genes in an organism and their functions. Dr. Pauls’ work will have a direct benefit on the growers, processors and others along the value chain.
These projects are supported through Genome Canada’s Genomic Applications Partnership Program (GAPP). GAPP projects translate Canadian knowledge and expertise in genomics into valuable applications that support a strong economy and a growing middle class.

Oakland, California’s Tankcrimes Records sure knows how to throw a party, taking over the Metro Operahouse for a night of blistering music from 8 local from their lengthy roster. Folks waited patiently in the rain as the line to get in snaked down the block and by the time things kicked off with Los Huaycos at the smaller “Party Stage,” there was already a healthy crowd gathered and ready to rumble.
Introduced by Scotty Heath (Mr. Tankcrimes himself, who served both as MC as well as occasional stagehand throughout the evening) Connoisseur kicked off the main stage with a set of “songs about weed,” and proceeded to smoke out half the now-substantial crowd with giant blunt after giant blunt. For those not partaking, the contact high from the cloud enveloping the stage was unavoidable.
By the time DeathgraVe took over the Party Stage, the Metro was officially sold out and it felt it. Crammed between the back side of the main stage and the front bar, the sufficiently baked crowd got rowdy as frontman Andre Cornejo scowled and wailed in their faces.
Kicker wrapped things up on the Party Stage and broke from the metal theme of the evening with their East Bay punk featuring members of Neurosis, Operation Ivy and Dystopia and fronted by legendary Pete the Roadie with an excellent set that could have easily handled the main stage crowd.
Back on the main stage, Brainoil, Murtuous and Necrot delivered heavy AF sets and when it appeared as if the crowd was finally tuckering out, Ghoul took the stage for some down and dirty Easy Bay thrash. The band’s relationship with Tankcrimes seems to have paid off for everyone involved and the floor was downright chaotic as the on-stage mauling showered the front rows with blood.
Thanks to Tankcrimes Records for being the real deal and bringing five hours of solid music to the masses. Perfectly curated and seamlessly executed, Tankcrimes Takeover is sure to go down in Bay Area lore as one of those shows that should not have been missed.

Taipei, Taiwan is having its first LGBTQ focused art exhibition (at a government gallery).
Spectrosynthesis – Asian LGBTQ Issues and Art Now will debut at the Museum of Contemporary Art on September 9 and last until November 5, 2017.
The art work collection will focus on the evolving social structures around LGBTQ life and the artwork will span from half a century.
The art was gathered by curator Sean HU who said:
“Spectrosynthesis is the first exhibition I have curated related to LGBTQ issues.”
“During the last three years while preparing for the exhibition, I have witnessed a growth in discussions and debates on LGBTQ issues in Asia. The recent constitutional decision in favour of same-sex marriage in Taiwan is of particular significance.”
“Spectrosynthesis will present a wide range of works which relate to the topic of LGBTQ in various ways.”
“The exhibition hopes to stimulate thoughts and challenge values and perspectives on human equality. All parties involved in the exhibition take love as their starting point and I hope this will be the beginning of an open dialogue on the topic.”
Again, if you want to check out the museum, it will start in September and continue until November in Taiwan.


WITH DRY ice billowing from industrial-size smoke machines and fireworks threatening to singe the eyebrows of onlookers, the sleek bonnet of Mercedes-AMG’s newest model emerged to a rapturous welcome at the sports car maker’s Affalterbach headquarters in Germany last night (September 9).
This was a very special moment for AMG because it is only the second model to be produced entirely in-house by the company, following the potent SLS.
The Mercedes-AMG GT, a compact sports car to rival the Porsche 911 Turbo and the Jaguar F-type R, will go on sale early next year priced at around £95,000. It will woo customers with its all-new high-performance 4-litre V8, and styling evoking Mercedes’ hugely successful Silver Arrow racing cars of the 1950s. It will be publicly unveiled at next month’s Paris show.
There are two models: the 503bhp GT S, which is on sale from launch, and the 456bhp GT, available shortly after. The two models are distinguished by slightly different body detailing, tailpipes and alloy wheels.
Mercedes-AMG GT walkaround video with Robert Lesnik, chief designer:
Designed by a team led by Gordon Wagener, the vice president of design at parent company Daimler AG, the AMG GT blends the typically elongated bonnet associated with Mercedes sports cars, with a design language that favours smooth surfaces over sharp creases.
Inside the car, owners enjoy a cockpit which, unlike that in the recently revealed S-class coupé, wraps around the driver and passenger like a fighter jet’s. All dials and controls are placed within close proximity of the driver, ensuring vehicle settings can be adjusted at high speeds.
But this car really isn’t about smartphone connectivity or Adaptive Brake; it’s about speed, a compelling mechanical soundtrack and sheer drama.
A sleek, 8.4in central screen dominates the infotainment package and is controlled by Mercedes’ familiar COMAND system. Meanwhile, many of the car’s driver-assistance features are borrowed from the S-class and include Collision Prevention Assist Plus and and Attention Assist.
But this car really isn’t about smartphone connectivity or Adaptive Brake; it’s about speed, a compelling soundtrack and sheer drama. The new 4-litre V8 engine provides all of this while, on the GT S at least, it is possible to control the exhaust valves for an even more visceral engine noise. The car’s new aluminium chassis helps to keep the GT’s kerbweight down to 1,540kg, and the GT S’s to 1,570kg, ensuring as little of the engine’s performance is wasted as possible.
Power is directed to the car’s rear wheels by a revised version of the Getrag seven-speed dual-clutch gearbox that featured on the SLS. Keeping the new model safe from the greenery is a set of enormous 360mm disc brakes, front and rear. Optional ceramic composite discs measuring 402mm are available for drivers who crave even stronger stopping power.
But the Mercedes- AMG GT isn’t exclusively about performance. It is surprisingly practical, too. The rear hatch boasts an impressive 350 litres of space. Admittedly, that’s over 50 litres less than the Jaguar F-type’s boot but it thoroughly trounces the measly 260 litres in the Porsche 911 Turbo.
Its golf club-swallowing boot aside, the AMG GT is likely to attract young buyers. It has heaps of style, a cutting-edge infotainment system, soul-stirring performance and a price tag that shouldn’t bother the Tinie Tempahs of this world.
It might bother the likes of Porsche, Jaguar and Lamborghini, though.
