Rep. Jim Clyburn (D-S.C.) said Wednesday that the deteriorating situation in Iraq “cries out” for President Obama to launch drone strikes.
"I'm a great believer in drones, and I think that this situation cries out for it," Clyburn, the third-ranking House Democrat, said following a closed-door meeting of the Democratic Caucus in the Capitol.
On Tuesday, Sen. Dianne FeinsteinDianne FeinsteinDemocrats exploring lawsuit against Trump Overnight Finance: Dems explore lawsuit against Trump | Full-court press for Trump tax plan | Clock ticks down to spending deadline Comey to testify before Senate Judiciary Committee MORE (D-Calif.), head of the Senate Intelligence Committee, called on Obama to "take direct action now" to counter the threat posed by insurgents representing the Islamic State of Iraq and Syria (ISIS), a group linked to al-Qaeda.
Rep. Steny Hoyer (D-Md.) said Tuesday that Obama "certainly … should be considering" airstrikes to quell the uprising. And House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) has remained open to the idea of "providing equipment or some other assist" to the Iraqi government as long as there are no U.S. boots on the ground.
They may have their work cut out for them in convincing their colleagues, however, as many other Democrats are lining up in opposition to the idea of a renewed military involvement in Iraq – at least while Maliki remains atop the government.
Rep. Brad Sherman (D-Calif.), a senior member of the House Foreign Affairs Committee, argues that Obama should withhold any military help "until such time as either Maliki's gone or Maliki's policies change dramatically."
"Just because ISIS is bad doesn't mean that Maliki is good," Sherman said Tuesday by phone.
Rep. Ruben HinojosaRuben HinojosaTurning the tables to tackle poverty and homelessness in rural America Ethics: Lawmakers didn’t ‘knowingly’ break rules with Azerbaijan gifts Dems heap praise on Pelosi for trade moves MORE (D-Texas), chairman of the Congressional Hispanic Caucus, said Wednesday that he supports Obama's decision to send up to 275 troops to protect the U.S. embassy and other facilities in Baghdad. But he is opposed to the idea of "going into war again."

"I don't know if there's any utility in involving ourselves in what is quickly descending into civil war, unless the leaders in Iraq are willing to say that they want to be a [unified] country," Becerra said.
"I'm not sure where the White House is preparing to go,” he continued. “I'd be supportive of anything that helps us support democracy and freedom but at the same time, you have to prove to me that the Iraqis are willing to step up and say that Shia will protect Sunni, Sunni will protect Shia, and the Kurds will do the same."
The Iraq debate arrives as the administration is eying targeted missile strikes against the ISIS militants in an effort to bring some stability to the embattled nation roughly two-and-a-half years after Obama pulled the last U.S. troops out of it.
Support from Democratic leaders will be crucial, if Obama goes that route, as he faces both a public and a Congress hostile to the notion of launching new operations after more than a decade of war post-9/11.

“So let us do what we should have done in the very beginning: let's determine what it is we get out of Iraq, how we get out of Iraq and how we help the Iraqi people,” she continued.
"Enough people have died in this war."

Riverdale wasn’t running down hill. It just looked that way.
The Warriors scored on their opening play from scrimmage and never slowed down, racing past visiting La Vergne 49-13 Friday night at Tomahawk Stadium.
Riverdale snapped a two-game losing skid in grand fashion, piling up 475 rushing yards, including 314 in the first half alone.
Fullback Peyton Phillips led the way for Riverdale, rushing for 177 yards and three touchdowns on just eight carries The senior started the homecoming festivities for the Warriors early, going 74 yards on the opening play. He added a 1-yard touchdown run later in the first and capped his night with an 84-yard sprint in the third.
“We wanted a big jump starting off,” said Phillips, who was one of 13 Warriors to have at least one carry, and one of five to score a touchdown. “All week coach was talking about wanting to get the fullback going up the middle and we did that.”
Drako Little also eclipsed the century mark for Riverdale, going for 102 yards on just five carries, while quarterback Dillon Woodruff added 83 yards on seven carries. The Warriors attempted just one pass in the game, an incompletion late in the second quarter.
“That start was a big help,” said Riverdale coach Ron Aydelott, whose team improved to 5-2 overall, 2-1 in District 7-AAA. “To take one to the house on the first play of the game and then get a few more big plays early, I think it gave our team some energy and I thought we were missing that the last two weeks.”
C.J. Fore was a bright spot for La Vergne (2-5, 1-2), as the Wolverine quarterback threw for a 234 yards and pair of touchdowns with no interceptions. However, the La Vergne struggled to establish its running game – finishing with just 31 yards on 27 carries – and Riverdale’s big plays were too much to overcome.
“We needed to come in with a chip on our shoulder, and then Riverdale scored early and I think we got our heads down,” said Fore. “You can’t do that against Riverdale, bwe’ll keep moving forward and we will be ready the next time out.”
La Vergne dominated time of possession in the first quarter, holding the ball for 8:35, but the Wolverines came out of the period with nothing to show but a 28-0 deficit.
Riverdale forced La Vergne into a three-and-out immediately following Phillips touchdown, and the Warriors needed just three plays and 44 seconds to march 48 yards for Phillips’ one-yard run.
After stopping the Wolverines on downs at the Riverdale 18, the Warriors proceeded to march 82 yards in just 2:15, finished by Austin McGrone’s nine-yard dash.
Riverdale forced one more three-and-out by La Vergne on the ensuing drive, and Ricardo Terry returned Dustin Bills’ punt 67 yards for a touchdown to all but ice the game.
La Vergne did manage to get on the board in the first half, albeit in unusual fashion. Trying to spike the ball before time ran out in the second quarter, the Wolverines were whistled for delay of game and the ball was moved back to the Riverdale 18. La Vergne was granted one untimed down and Fore found Chris McGee in the middle of the end zone for the scoring strike.
Fore capped off the Wolverine scoring in the third quarter, when he hit J.J. Horner for a 46-yard pass down the left sideline. Horner finished with 103 yards on five receptions.

Many liberals around the world were infuriated by Britain’s decision to leave the European Union — and now, one prominent Irish athlete seems to be encouraging his home country to do the same.
Ultimate Fighting Championship star Conor McGregor offered his thoughts on the matter in a series of recent social media posts and came about as close to endorsing Ireland’s exit from the E.U. as possible without saying it outright.
“It’s time to talk Ireland leaving the European Union,” he wrote, according to Breitbart.
“Sent to its rightful destination”
McGregor went on to hint at some factors that might have shaped his opinion, including COVID-19 restrictions and mandates.
In one post, he referred to Irish leaders as “EU lackeys” and dismissed the “laughable” efforts to mandate vaccines.
“The tracks of this gravy train will soon be realigned and sent to its rightful destination of an Irish red brick wall,” McGregor wrote.
Of course, those posts were subsequently deleted. It was not immediately clear why he chose to take them down.
Support for Irish exit rises
As it stands, there is not a great deal of public support in Ireland for a Brexit-style departure from the E.U. While the establishment of the Irish Freedom Party led to increased discussion of the prospect, there is not enough demand among Irish citizens to turn the idea into reality just yet.
Breitbart pointed out, however, that there are several reasons that Ireland might stand to benefit from an E.U. exit.
Like every other nation in the union, it has to follow policies enacted by the central government in Brussels, Belgium, which does not necessarily have Ireland’s best interests in mind. Furthermore, the nation does not currently have a significant stake in its own fiscal and monetary policies as it now uses the Euro as its currency.
It remains to be seen whether McGregor’s remarks on the topic will rally more Irish citizens to support the movement. His now-deleted posts received thousands of likes and supportive comments and came in the wake of recently announced rule changes that will impact nightclubs and other businesses throughout the holiday season.
Irish Prime Minister Micheal Martin defended the measures this week, asserting: “The risks associated with proceeding into the Christmas period without some restrictions to reduce the volume of social contacts is just too high.”

Discussing face this, struggle is a truth of your life. However, they have also a fact of working with many people when you are task management Manager in a medium or large size organization. Avoiding men and women that cause turmoil just works where you don’t own to help them later on. For the rest, it’s actually necessary to discover a way to deal with these people, ideally while keeping the mismatch to a minimum. Therefore , who will be these difficult people? They may be people by any team, any career or any kind of provider that you handle. Some could have years of encounter found in the organization and are experts in a incredibly certain discipline — which usually makes them indispensable to your project – but that they flourish on clash, and no matter you perform, they shall be complicated. They’re certainly not all precisely the same, nor are they difficult in the same ways. Some will be generally confrontational and argumentative, others affect you every the period, and there are some of those who criticize everything, whatever the source. You can include to the list the ones who also will likely not produce virtually any accommodement, can not hear , nor deliver their very own part of the scope for the reason that per expectations. One point they will each have in common is that they don’t communicate very well with others. Nevertheless, attending to who that they are and how to deal with these people can reduce the level of disagreement and make your daily lifestyle easier.
1- Prepare to Deal with Complex Persons
The top thing that you must perform when ever coping with tricky people is usually to try and understand all of them whenever you can. Typically, the tough conduct that they are realizing is only a symptom of a more deeply fundamental issue. They will are choosing their personal problems out on others, generally without even appreciating this. It doesn’t matter if many problems will be temporary or long-term; they affect the model’s perceptions and activities. In the long run, seeing as a Task Manager you may not be able to replace the root trigger of this problem, and that means you need to learn how to work with all of them the way they will are. Right now there are a few crucial stuff you have to keep in mind when ever trying to manage tricky people:
2- Dealing with the Stress and Negativity
You wish to be careful with how you manage the stress and any adverse feelings that crop up from coping with tough people. Now we have already noted certainly not re acting to them very much the same in which they are really acting, but what do you carry out with all that negativity and stress? It is critical to dissipate that in a lot of way, so that it doesn’t work as a cancer within you. Burying the difficulty is certainly not dealing with this; really simply disappearing this via yourself and everyone with you. Unfortunately, despite the fact that it’s hidden, it’s nonetheless there, eating away at you. It’s essential that you are active in dealing with this kind of, not simply just recurring. You need a methodology to get help, such as: Failure to properly manage the stress that difficult people bring in your life can cause severe concerns just like large blood pressure, an issue with digestion or even cardiovascular system attacks. As you eliminate the pressure, you aren’t assisting your self overcome the problem; safeguarding your well-being and setting up your self with respect to the next day’s issues.
3- Continue to keep Your Interactions Positive Despite having Difficult Persons
You really want to keep the relationship as positive as you can. While you aren’t transformation their frame of mind, you may transform yours. Actually if they are really negative, keep your responses great. Ultimately, which can do even more to modification their very own frame of mind than anything at all else you can do. While they might still become destructive with everybody else around them, they will respond to your attitude when you are even more positive along. This works, and the effort and hard work you put with it will fork out off! One particular way that one could maintain an optimistic relationship is usually to make a point of by way of thanking these people because of their cooperation if and when they deliver results. Carry out so in public if you can. Everyone likes to become thanked, even challenging people. It displays that you’re not against them, even despite the fact you might have to be firm at conditions.
4- Possess a final option Schedule Udemærket (and Make certain They will Learn about That Too)
For the reason that a final measure, you can always with ease let these people know that you understand the escalation process in your own organization (all organizations needs to have one). Be aware how you accomplish this nonetheless, as you may want to make this seem like a “threat”. Rather, stay positive, by saying that you don’t want to go that journey, but choose to find a way to work at the same time for workers’ profit.
5- Get the most from the Situation
Finally, always consider these troubles as for you to improve the persons abilities. Exactlty what can you learn from coping with that problematic situation? How would you better manage it in the foreseeable future? What can you transform, to prevent escalation in other fights? Make the most of the situation and it definitely will help you in the long run. Whenever you study to deal with difficult people, it will make you a better leader. Great teams leaders happen to be signed in the furnace of challenge, not launched with natural control credentials. Just like you operate with difficult people, you are focusing your command skills, planning yourself designed for bigger complications and greater responsibilities.

On June 30, 2014 an Intergovernmental Agreement ("IGA") was signed between the United States of America and the state of Israel in respect of the legislation commonly known as the Foreign Account Tax Compliance Act ("FATCA").
In general, the main objective of the IGA is to enable and ease the compliance of Israeli financial institutions (as such term is defined under FATCA). The basic concept of the IGA is that Israeli financial institutions, to which the FATCA provisions apply, will be able to comply with FATCA by providing information to an Israeli government agency, instead of to the Internal Revenue Service ("IRS"). The Israeli government will then supply all the information it has received from Israeli financial institutions to the United States.
The IGA signed between the United States and Israel is what is referred to as a "Model 1" IGA, which means that compliance with FATCA is performed via the local government. The covenants made by each government under the IGA are reciprocal. As a result of the IGA, US financial institutions will be obligated to identify accounts held by Israeli residents and submit that information to the US Government, which will then submit that information to the Israeli Government. Thus, as a practical matter, the IGA creates a kind of Israeli FATCA provisions with respect to United States financial institutions.
Below is a general outline of the key concepts contained in the IGA.
FATCA at a Glance
The provisions commonly known as FATCA were enacted in the US under the 2010 Hiring Incentives to Restore Employment (HIRE) Act and are mostly contained in §§ 1471-1474 of the Internal Revenue Code and the Treasury regulations promulgated thereunder. These provisions require institutions that are defined as Foreign Financial Institutions ("FFI") to identify "accounts" held by US persons. In general, under FATCA, FFIs include (i) banks; (ii) broker-dealers and other entities conducting custodial businesses; (iii) certain entities that conduct investment activities on behalf of customers; (iv) professionally managed investment funds or other entities that function or hold themselves out as collective investment vehicles that are established to invest, reinvest or trade in financial assets; (v) certain holding companies and treasury centers that are part of financial groups or that are “formed in connection with or are availed of” investment vehicles; and (vi) certain foreign insurance companies.
In order to identify the existence of an account held by a US person the FFI must implement a set of due diligence requirements. Depending on the nature of the FFI, it will often need to enter into an agreement with the IRS under which the FFI will report such accounts to the IRS and act as a withholding agent. An FFI that enters into an agreement with the IRS is referred to as a Participating FFI.
Under certain other circumstances, an FFI that meets certain criteria can still be FATCA compliant, without entering into an agreement with the IRS.
If an FFI does not enter into an agreement with the IRS and does not meet the criteria for being otherwise FATCA compliant, the FFI will be considered a Nonparticipating FFI. Any person making a so called "withholdable payment" to a Nonparticipating FFI must withhold 30% taxes at source.
Reporting Israeli Financial Institutions
Currently, there are 39 IGA's signed between the US government and other countries, 34 of which are Model 1 IGAs. Moreover, more than additional 50 countries have reached agreements in substance with respect to singing an IGA with the United States.
One of the main effects of the IGA is that generally Israeli FFIs will not need to enter into an agreement with the IRS in order to avoid the status of "Nonparticipating FFIs". In general, Israeli FFIs that would have otherwise been subject to FATCA reporting are defined as "Reporting Israeli FFIs". Reporting Israeli FFIs are not considered Nonparticipating FFIs and therefore not subject to FATCA withholding, unless they are determined to be in significant non-compliance with their obligations under the IGA.
Furthermore an Israeli Reporting FFI is deemed to be FATCA compliant if they meet the following conditions:
- The FFI identifies US accounts and reports annually to the Israeli government.
- For each of 2015 and 2016, the identity of each Nonparticipating FFI to which payments have been made is identified.
- The Reporting Israeli FFI complies with the applicable registration requirements on the IRS FATCA website (this is a registration requirement and is not equivalent to entering into an agreement with the IRS as a Participating FFI).
- If the Reporting Israeli FFI has elected to be responsible for FATCA withholding, then it has withheld 30% from any payments to Nonparticipating FFIs.
- If the Reporting Israeli FFI has not elected to be responsible for FATCA withholding, the Israeli Reporting FFI immediately provides the party that is responsible for withholding the information required to withhold correctly.
Exchange of Information
The IGA sets out the information that each of the United States and Israel must obtain and provide to the other party. The information that must be maintained includes a long list of items. However, not all the information must be collected from the date the IGA enters into effect. Instead the IGA sets out a gradual schedule of the information that must be collected each year. As mentioned above, because the IGA is reciprocal, US financial intuitions will be required to identify accounts held by Israeli residents and submit that information to the US Government, which will then submit that information to the Israeli Government.
It should be noted that each of the countries is allowed to collect information based on its own tax reporting rules. This is intended to allow both Israeli FFIs and the Israeli government to comply with FATCA without having to introduce new systems of reporting and accounting.
The IGA also contains certain confidentiality and restriction of use provisions that each contracting state must abide by in respect of the information it receives from the contracting state.
Annex I of the IGA includes a very extensive description of the diligence that is necessary for the purpose of determining the existence of what is defined as a US Reportable Account or accounts held by Nonparticipating FFIs.
The diligence requirements differ based on the following types of accounts:
Preexisting Individual Accounts – accounts belonging to individuals prior to July 1, 2014.
- New Individual Accounts – accounts opened by individuals on or after July 1, 2014.
- Preexisting Entity Accounts – accounts belonging to entities prior to July 1, 2014.
- New Entity Accounts – accounts opened by entities on or after July 1, 2014.
The IGA itself enters into force on the date that Israel formally notifies the US in writing that it has completed the necessary internal procedures required to bring the IGA into force in Israel. The Government of Israel has issued a bill that would create the legislation in domestic Israeli tax law required to implement the IGA. The bill however has not yet been published as law.
In the interim however, from the point of view of US law, the IRS has indicated that it will treat Israel as having an IGA in force, based on the signing of the IGA on June 30, 2014.
* * * *
The IGA is a very detailed and nuanced document which interfaces with the FATCA provisions themselves. The above is meant only to give a very broad idea of the issues addressed by the IGA and the manner in which FFIs may be affected. This update should not however be relied upon for specific circumstances and legal counsel should be consulted to address compliance in each particular case.

Porous materials with large surface area have many positive effects in applications such as drug delivery, catalysis and production of nanoparticles. Mesoporous silica with pores that are 2-50 nm in size and have a specific surface area of 500-1000 m2/g have since its first discovery in the early 90’s been of great interest to the research community. The large surface area makes the material useful in catalysis and gas storage since many reactions can occur in a small amount of material. The narrow pore size distribution makes them suitable to use as sieves that can separate molecules of different size or as molds for growing nanoparticles, yielding particles of uniform and controlled size which can be very difficult to do in such solution.
The material is synthesized in a sol-gel process where the surfactants and silica precursor are mixed with other additives in order to alter the pore size and particle morphology. We are focusing on synthesizing SBA-15 like materials with cylindrical pores arranged in a hexagonal structure. It has been shown that our materials consisting of separate particles with unusually short and wide pores are beneficial in applications such as drug delivery systems , and enzyme immobilization .

The Merry Adventures of Robin Hood audiobook
Howard PYLE (1853 – 1911)
Robin Hood is the archetypal English folk hero; a courteous, pious and swashbuckling outlaw of the medi?val era who, in modern versions of the legend, is famous for robbing the rich to feed the poor and fighting against injustice and tyranny. He operates with his “seven score” (140 strong) group of fellow outlawed yeomen — named the Merry Men. He and his band are usually associated with Sherwood Forest, Nottinghamshire.
The Victorian era generated its own distinct versions of Robin Hood. The traditional tales were often adapted for children, most notably in Howard Pyle’s Merry Adventures of Robin Hood. These versions firmly stamp Robin as a staunch philanthropist, a man who takes from the rich to give to the poor.(Summary from Wikipedia)

- Proposed cash dividend of 35 fils per share, and 5% bonus shares
National Bank of Kuwait (“NBK”, the “Bank” or the “Group”), today announced its financial results for the year ended 31 December 2019. The Group delivered strong annual performance with net profit of KD 401.3 million (USD 1.3 billion) compared with KD 370.7 million (USD 1.2 billion) in 2018, increasing by 8.2% year-on-year.
Total assets in 2019 stood at KD 29.3 billion (USD 96.6 billion), increasing by 6.7%, with customer deposits increasing by 10.7% to reach KD 15.9 billion (USD 52.6 billion) and customer loans and advances growing by 6.8% to KD 16.6 billion (USD 54.6 billion). NBK’s Board of Directors has proposed the distribution of a cash dividend of 35 fils per share, representing 56.4% of net profit, in addition to 5% bonus shares.
Nasser Musaed Abdulla Al-Sayer, NBK Group Chairman, commented: “2019 was another strong year as we delivered healthy profitability while maintaining a robust balance sheet – demonstrating the quality and diversity of both our operations and earnings.
The Bank remains firmly committed to New Kuwait 2035 and is taking confident steps towards supporting its delivery. These financial results are driven by the execution of our strategy for growth and innovation, while contributing to the country’s socioeconomic development.
A highlight of the year was the heavy oversubscription of our USD 750 million perpetual tier-1 capital securities issuance, which was well-received by global fixed income investors and reflects solid investor confidence in NBK.”
Net operating income grew by 1.4% to KD 895.5 million (USD 3.0 billion), while non-interest income increased by 7.0% to KD 206.3 million (USD 680.7 million). Our international operations continued to play an important role in mitigating Group-level risk and diversifying income from across geographies. The total bottom line contribution of international operations accounted for 28% of the Group’s net profit in 2019.
Isam J. Al-Sager, NBK’s Group Chief Executive Officer, said: “Despite operating conditions remaining below expectations, with a volatile oil prices environment, NBK recorded another set of strong results, as the breadth of its operations and the scale of its international footprint mitigated risks and ensured consistent profitability.
Non-oil GDP growth in Kuwait is projected to reach 2.5% in 2020, and the pipeline of scheduled project awards is healthy. There is a broad expectation that the year will bring positive operating conditions, as the government continues to stimulate economic activity and the appetite for credit improves.
NBK is deeply committed to its digitalization strategy, in an effort to develop an established foothold in its regional markets. In 2019 we were proud to launch our in-house Digital Factory, which is playing a vital role in driving the progress of our digital roadmap. This will soon become a unique competitive advantage in the region.”
NBK’s asset quality metrics remained strong with the ratio of non-performing loans to gross loans at 1.10%, compared with 1.38% in 2018, and an NPL coverage ratio of 272.2%, compared with 228.1% in 2018. The Bank maintained healthy levels of capitalization, with a capital adequacy ratio of 17.8% at year-end, compared with 17.2% in 2018. This level of capitalization is aligned with the Group’s risk appetite and in excess of the Central Bank of Kuwait’s requirements.
Al-Sager concluded: “NBK’s strategy for 2020 will not deviate from its current trajectory. The Group will continue to increase the diversity of its income across geographies and segments, with the primary objective of achieving superior returns and offering exceptional service to customers.”
In 2019, NBK was recognized by Global Finance and The Banker as the Best Bank in Kuwait, as well as ranking in the World’s 50 Safest Banks list by Global Finance for the 14th consecutive time.

A 68-year-old man accused of fatally shooting one person and injuring five others at a Taiwanese Presbyterian church in Laguna Woods pleaded not guilty Friday to multiple felonies stemming from the attack, which authorities have characterized as a hate crime.
The charges against David Wenwei Chou of Las Vegas include murder and attempted murder.
Prosecutors also added hate crime enhancements, alleging that Chou’s killing of Dr. John Cheng, 52, and wounding of other parishioners on May 15 was motivated by race, color, religion, nationality or country of origin.
Chou could face the death penalty if convicted of all charges.
Chou, who is being held at the Theo Lacy jail facility in Orange without bail, wore a bright yellow jumpsuit and surgical mask when he appeared Friday in a Santa Ana courtroom to enter his plea.
A Mandarin interpreter translated the proceedings to him through a headset, but Chou appeared to have difficulty understanding. At one point he asked Judge Cynthia Herrera what he was supposed to do.
“I am not clear,” he said in English.
Prosecutors turned over evidence that they said appeared to be medical records obtained during a search of Chou’s home in Las Vegas. The content of those records was not immediately clear.
Chou’s attorney, Jennifer Ryan, declined to comment to reporters outside the courtroom.
Orange County Sheriff Don Barnes in May characterized the shootings as a “politically motivated hate incident” and said authorities think Chou “specifically targeted the Taiwanese community.”
Barnes said Chou left notes in Chinese in his car stating that he did not believe Taiwan should be independent from China. He apparently had an issue with Taiwanese people because of the way he was treated while living in Taiwan, Barnes said. Chou grew up in Taiwan as a waishengren — someone with recent roots in China.
China considers Taiwan a breakaway province and has grown increasingly aggressive about reclaiming the democratic, self-ruled island. Within Taiwan, a majority of people favor maintaining the status quo, with some wanting to openly declare independence and a small minority wanting to someday unify with China.
The Presbyterian church in Taiwan is known for its support of pro-independence causes, and the Laguna Woods congregation conducts services in the Taiwanese dialect, rather than Mandarin.
Prosecutors allege that Chou entered Geneva Presbyterian Church in Laguna Woods, where the Irvine Taiwanese Presbyterian Church rents space, with two 9-millimeter handguns, several backpacks that contained extra magazines and four Molotov cocktail devices.
He allegedly hid the backpacks in a church banquet hall and chained several doors shut, then mingled with parishioners. The group was there for a luncheon honoring longtime Pastor Billy Chang, who was visiting after two years in Taiwan.
For the record:
6:13 p.m. Aug. 20, 2022A previous version of this article said that “Chang fought back and was fatally shot.” It was Dr. John Cheng, not Pastor Billy Chang, who was killed.
When the gunman opened fire, Cheng fought back and was fatally shot. Five others, ranging in age from 66 to 92, were hospitalized and survived.

Headlight, Sidelight & Headlight surround Bespoke Security Bolt Kit:
Security bolt locations have been shown with red highlighting in the first 2 x photos
This kit contains bespoke security screws for:
- 2 x headlights.
- 2 x headlight surrounds.
- 8 x sidelights. (4 x front & 4 x rear).
- 1 x fog light & 1 x reverse light.
- Nylon anti-mark washers for all screws.
- 2 x specialist bolt head drive adaptors.
Due to the numerous thefts of headlight, sidelight and headlight surrounds in the Land Rover community, we have produced a security bolt kit that takes security to the next level.
Security bolts have been readily available for years (mostly the 6 lobe pin bolt), however due to their wide use, many security bolts are now generic and can be picked up in any fastener shop.
Our stainless security bolts have a specialist head that is manufacturer by one company only. To obtain the specialist drive that fits, you have to be a recognised dedicated security fastener distributor. These are not 6 lobe security bolts, (which are now generic and available everywhere).
We do not show close-ups of the specialist bolt heads for obvious reasons.
- A4 stainless steel screws.
- Next level security that makes the standard 6 lobe pin torx or HEX pin security bolt system obsolete
- Standard 6 pin security adaptors or any standard drive will not fit these specialist heads.
With the headlight surrounds locked in place with our security fittings, we have also added security 4 x security bolts per headlight.
This means that a thief cannot remove the headlight from its mounting ring. We have also added an extra security bolt that connects the headlight rings to the bezel that is behind.
This kit allows you to use your headlight height adjustment bolts as normal.
We provide nylon washers with our security bolts to provide a barrier between paintwork and direct contact.
Prices include VAT at 20% and free UK delivery.

You can watch this video we've made to see how to wind the bobbin, thread the machine, operate the various controls and how to sew.
It's the same powerful steel driven machine that will sew everything from sheer and lightweight to heavy fabric and even leather. It uses the same presser feet and has the same two-speed sewing capability.
It's been improved with the addition of electronic controls. It's easier to operate than ever. No need to struggle with push-in pattern cams and no confusing knobs to set. Select a pattern with the touch of a button and the machine automatically sets the stitch width and length. Lots of cool features!
This Viking 6690 is in really nice shape, very lightly used and fully restored so it sews great. It comes with a nice range of accessories, including an even feed foot and a slide-on sewing bed with a clear window lets you see your bobbin case for easy removal and insertion.
It's just come off the restoration bench here at Stagecoach Road Vintage Sewing Machine Restoration and it's running and sewing like a new machine.
Here at Stagecoach Road Vintage Sewing Machines, we are passionate about what we do, which is restoring beautiful vintage sewing machines to the best that they can be, because we are in love with the styling, the quality of the materials, the workmanship that went into these great machines, which just can't be duplicated today.
You, seriously, cannot buy a machine this good, new.
So we search out the best of these fine machines, the ones that are very lightly used, and open them up. We disassemble the tension, the motor, the bobbin case, take off the faceplate, the gear cases, the hand-wheel, the slide plate, the bottom plate, and the back access plate and get down to where the old dried-on oil and grease are. We clean out the packed-in lint and dust, remove the thread-jams, inspect the hook and the needle plate, and generally look for potential problems.
We use high-quality lubricants in all the right places, getting into those spots that aren't as obvious to the average user, and clean out the old hardened grease from the gear cases, and we test the machines to make sure that they are sewing at their best.
After all of this, each machine is carefully detailed, to bring out it's original beauty. These are some of the finest examples of mid-century styling that you'll find, and we want each machine to be the very best that it can be.
Sorry, it's SOLD!

The Elephant and Piggie books by Mo Willems are some of our all time favourites. We love using these in therapy and recommending them to parents to read with their kids.
The kids adore these books – they are very funny!! Gerald (Elephant) and Piggie have everyday adventures together – there is always a problem to be solved, and always in such a clever and intriguing way. These books generate lots of discussion and opportunity for ‘wondering’, problem solving, prediction, and exploring emotions. The illustrations are clear and uncluttered but so engaging and depict the feelings and thoughts of Gerald and Piggie so beautifully, and best of all, there’s not too much language and it’s not too complicated.
There are several in the series and they explore friendships, feeling sad, angry, jealous, upset, sharing, amongst other feelings in such a fun way, the kids just love them. We use them with kids right throughout primary school. Local libraries often have them – do have a look and share them with your kids and enjoy!

Us China Relations
Friday, June 14, 2013
The leaders of the United States and China recently met to try to establish a new and better relationship between the two superpowers. This week on Money Talking, Joe Nocera of the New York Times and Rana Foroohar of Time magazine report from China on what Chinese government officials and business leaders are saying.
Tuesday, December 18, 2012
By Mercy Kuo : Managing Director at the Committee for 100
Brian recently visited China on a trip for journalists sponsored by the Committee Of 100. He and his fellow travelers will be posting reflections on the blog over the next week. Here Mercy Kuo, Managing Director at Managing Director at C-100, responds to Brian's first post.
Brian, this question really gets to the essence of US-China relations – as China’s influence grows, will it be a “rule-maker” or “rule-breaker,” and in either scenario, what are implications for the United States, other regional players, and international relations? As a back-of-the-envelope informal exercise in scenario analysis, I’d offer two rudimentary contrasting sketches depicting how this relationship might evolve over, let’s say, the next decade or two.

I'm trying to appreciate the temporary condition of today. For one beautiful moment, my world became a winter wonderland, then today, nothing...just brown, gray earth.
Sometimes, I wish I could go back in time, back to the pretty, snowy days in my life...
before hurt ever touched my heart, before doubt ever entered my mind.
But I know I can't go back to those days.
I can't erase the mistakes or take away the questions you might have about me...I can't always let myself be kept in turmoil at being misunderstood, stumbling every which way I turn.
I have to keep walking, learning, growing...
because as some anonymous person said,
"Life is not a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in a pretty, well-preserved body, but rather to skid in broadside, thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and loudly proclaiming--Wow, what a ride!"

|Amendola v City of New York|
|2011 NY Slip Op 08104 [89 AD3d 775]|
|November 9, 2011|
|Appellate Division, Second Department|
|Published by New York State Law Reporting Bureau pursuant to Judiciary Law § 431.|
|Thomas Amendola, Appellant,|
City of New York, Respondent.
Michael A. Cardozo, Corporation Counsel, New York, N.Y. (Pamela Seider Dolgow and
Alyse Fiori of counsel), for respondent.
Michael A. Cardozo, Corporation Counsel, New York, N.Y. (Pamela Seider Dolgow and Alyse Fiori of counsel), for respondent.
In an action to recover damages for personal injuries, the plaintiff appeals from an order of the Supreme Court, Queens County (Kerrigan, J.), dated August 6, 2010, which granted the defendant's motion for summary judgment dismissing the complaint.
Ordered that the order is reversed, on the law, with costs, and the defendant's motion for summary judgment dismissing the complaint is denied.
The plaintiff allegedly slipped and fell on grease on the steps of a trailer which housed a workers' locker room. The trailer was located inside an enclosed sanitation garage. The defendant City of New York moved for summary judgment dismissing the complaint, contending that it did not create or have actual or constructive notice of the alleged hazardous condition. The Supreme Court granted the motion. We reverse.
A defendant who moves for summary judgment in a slip-and-fall case has the initial burden of making a prima facie showing that it neither created the hazardous condition nor had actual or constructive notice of its existence for a sufficient length of time to discover and remedy it (see Schiano v Mijul, Inc., 79 AD3d 726 ; Walsh v Super Value, Inc., 76 AD3d 371 ; Gambino v City of New York, 60 AD3d 627 ). "To meet its initial burden on the issue of . . . constructive notice, the defendant must offer some evidence as to when the area in question was last cleaned or inspected [*2]relative to the time when the plaintiff fell" (Birnbaum v New York Racing Assn., Inc., 57 AD3d 598, 598-599 ; see Mei Xiao Guo v Quong Big Realty Corp., 81 AD3d 610 ). Additionally, a defendant who has actual knowledge of an ongoing and recurring dangerous condition may be charged with constructive notice of each specific reoccurrence of the condition (see Milano v Staten Is. Univ. Hosp., 73 AD3d 1141 ; Kohout v Molloy Coll., 61 AD3d 640 ; Brown v Linden Plaza Hous. Co., Inc., 36 AD3d 742 ; Roussos v Ciccotto, 15 AD3d 641 ). A general awareness of a condition, however, is insufficient to constitute constructive notice of the specific condition that caused the plaintiff to fall (see Kostic v Ascent Media Group, LLC, 79 AD3d 818 ; Mauge v Barrow St. Ale House, 70 AD3d 1016 ; Panetta v Phoenix Beverages, Inc., 29 AD3d 659 ). A defendant cannot satisfy its initial burden as the movant merely by pointing to gaps in the plaintiff's case (see McPhaul v Mutual of Am. Life Ins. Co., 81 AD3d 609 ; Davranov v 470 Realty Assoc., LLC, 79 AD3d 697 ; Edwards v Great Atl. & Pac. Tea Co., Inc., 71 AD3d 721 ).
Here, the defendant failed to meet its prima facie burden of establishing its entitlement to judgment as a matter of law and, therefore, the Supreme Court should have denied its motion for summary judgment dismissing the complaint. Given the location of the accident site, the defendant failed to establish, prima facie, that the greasy substance was not created by its employees (see Brown v Outback Steakhouse, 39 AD3d 450 ; Kelly v Media Serv. Corp., 304 AD2d 717 ; Hopkins v Statewide Indus. Catering Group, 272 AD2d 577 ). The defendant also failed to submit any evidence as to when the subject staircase was last cleaned or inspected. Hence, it failed to establish, prima facie, that it did not have constructive notice of the alleged hazardous condition (see Gray v Lifetitz, 83 AD3d 780 ; Alston v Starrett City Assoc., 72 AD3d 711 ; Pryzywalny v New York City Tr. Auth., 69 AD3d 598 ). Moreover, the defendant's submissions failed to eliminate all triable issues of fact as to whether it had actual notice of a reoccurring hazardous condition which routinely went unaddressed (see Milano v Staten Is. Univ. Hosp., 73 AD3d 1141 ; Kohout v Molloy Coll., 61 AD3d 640 ; Brown v Linden Plaza Hous. Co., Inc., 36 AD3d 742 ; Roussos v Ciccotto, 15 AD3d 641 ). Since the defendant failed to meet its initial burden as the movant, we need not review the sufficiency of the plaintiff's opposition papers (see Britto v Great Atl. & Pac. Tea Co., Inc., 21 AD3d 436 ; Joachim v 1824 Church Ave., Inc., 12 AD3d 409 ). Skelos, J.P., Balkin, Leventhal and Lott, JJ., concur.

|World Citizens call for urgent action to end human trafficking - a modern-day slave trade.|
The Association of World Citizens welcome the decision on 5 April 2018 of the Indian Union Cabinet to agree to the long-awaited bill "Trafficking of Persons (Prevention, Protection and Rehabilitation) to prevent trafficking humans for the purpose of begging, marriage, prostitution or labor. The bill will become law when passed by both houses of Parliament, though the bill can still be weakened by amendments in Parliament.
There are clauses to address the victims' physical and mental trauma and rehabilitation through education, training and health care. Thousands of women and children are trafficked within India as well as from neighboring Nepal and Bangladesh. West Bengal which shares a porous border with Bangladesh is known as a human trafficking hub.
The Indian government concern underlines the recent increase in the scope, intensity and sophistication of trafficking of human beings around the world that threatens the safety of citizens everywhere and hinders countries in their social, economic, and cultural development.
The smuggling of migrants and the trafficking of human beings for prostitution and slave labor have become two of the fastest growing worldwide problems of recent years. From Himalayan villages to Eastern European cities — especially women and girls — are attracted by the prospects of a well-paid job as a domestic servant, waitress or factory worker. Traffickers recruit victims through fake advertisements, mail-order bride catalogues, casual acquaintances, and even family members.
However, trafficking in human beings is not confined to the “sex industry”. Children are trafficked to work in sweatshops and men to work in the “three Ds jobs” — dirty, difficult, and dangerous. The lack of economic, political and social structures providing women with equal job opportunities has also contributed to the feminization of poverty, which in turn has given rise to the feminization of migration, as women leave their homes to look for viable economic solutions. In addition, political instability, militarism, civil unrest, internal armed conflicts and natural catastrophes increase women’s vulnerability and can contribute to the development of trafficking.
Trafficking impacts the lives of millions of people — those trafficked and their family members — especially from poorer countries or the poor sections of countries. Trafficking of persons has become a multi-billion dollar business and ranks right after the trade in drugs and guns. Trafficking is often an activity of organized crime. In some cases, it is the same organization which deals in drugs, guns and people. In other cases, there is a “division of labor”, but the groups are usually in contact.
Thus drugs, guns, illegal immigration — these form a nightmare vision of the dark side of globalization with untold human costs. Human trafficking affects women, men and children in their deepest being. It strikes at what is most precious in them: their dignity and their value as individuals. Trafficked persons experience painful and traumatizing situations which can be with them for the rest of their lives. From recruitment to exploitation, they lose their identity and desperately struggle against a situation that reduces them to objects. Thus the root causes of trafficking in human beings are multiple and interlinked and include issues as gender inequalities, poverty, low economic conditions and employment opportunities. Therefore, a multi-sector approach to tracking such root causes is crucial.
The Association of World Citizens stresses that the fight against human trafficking must be waged in a global and multidimensional way by the United Nations, regional intergovernmental organizations, by national governments and by non-governmental organizations so that countries of origin, transit and destination develop cooperative strategies and practical action against trade in human beings. One of the foundations of cooperation is mutual trust. When mutual trust is established, cooperation becomes a natural way to act.
As trafficking in people is more often tolerated by the law enforcement agencies than drugs or guns, there has been a shift of criminal organizations toward trafficking in people. 116 governments have signed a UN-promoted 2000 Protocol to Prevent, Suppress and Punish Trafficking, Especially Women and Children which entered into force in December 2003. However, trafficking in persons is often not a priority for national governments. Some countries which are important links in the trade of persons such as India, Pakistan, and Japan have not yet signed.
For many governments, trafficking is considered a question of illegal migration, and there is relatively little (in some cases no) consideration of the problems of the individual being trafficked. Human concern for those caught in the web is a prime contribution of non-governmental organizations. Concern for physical and mental health is crucial. There is also an obvious need to deal with the issues which have created these pools of people from which traffickers can draw. The large number of refugees from Iraq — over two million in Jordan and Syria — await better political and economic conditions in Iraq so they can return home.
One of the aspects of trafficking in which non-governmental organizations can play a crucial role is the psychological healing of the victims. Unfortunately, the victim’s psychological health is often ignored by governments. Victims often suffer a strong psychological shock that disrupts their psychological integrity. The result is a lack of self-esteem after having experienced such traumatizing events. Healing of victims. However, as World Citizens, we have the opportunity of dealing with a crucial world issue.
We must not underestimate the difficulties and dangers which exist in the struggle against trafficking in persons nor the hard efforts which are needed for the psychological healing of victims. However, as World Citizens, we have the opportunity of dealing with a crucial world issue.

Understanding Robotic Surgery
The Recent advances in robotic surgery are incredible feats that have changed the game of medicine over the last three decades. Known for its revolutionary nature, this technology has fascinated the medical community with its undeniable benefits. Let’s dive into the world of robotic surgery and explore its rise.
The Shortcomings of Minimally Invasive Surgery
Before the emergence of robotic surgery, minimally invasive surgery (MIS) was the primary choice for many medical procedures. However, MIS had its limitations. It lacked the tactile and force-related sensations crucial for accurate surgical operations. Furthermore, the instruments used in MIS had only four degrees of motion, unlike the human wrist and hand, which offer seven degrees of motion. Additionally, physiological tremors often affected the precision of MIS procedures.
The Birth of Surgical Robots
The journey towards robotic surgery began in 1985 with the introduction of the Puma 560, a robot designed for neurosurgical biopsies. Soon after, the transurethral resection of the prostate was successfully performed using robotic assistance. These early developments laid the foundation for what would follow.
Telesurgery and Beyond
As telesurgery gained momentum, the National Air and Space Administration (NASA) Ames Research Center played a pivotal role in advancing surgical robotics. The Automated Endoscopic System for Optimal Positioning (AESOP), introduced in 1990, was a significant breakthrough. This voice-controlled camera holder paved the way for further innovations.
The Rise of the da Vinci System
One of the most prominent advancements in surgical robotics is the da Vinci system by Intuitive Surgical Inc. This advanced master-slave system boasts multiple robotic arms or manipulators controlled remotely by a surgeon from a console. Unlike its predecessors, the da Vinci system employs miniaturized operating arms, eliminating the need to retract incisions. Its Endo-Wrist technology provides seven degrees of freedom, offering unprecedented dexterity. Newer systems have adopted ergonomically superior open consoles.
Overcoming Size and Cost Barriers
Traditional robotic systems like the da Vinci pivot around the insertion trocar, limiting their dexterity and posing a risk to adjacent vital structures. Moreover, their large size and cost hinder their widespread adoption. Laparo-endoscopic single-site surgery (LESS) robots have made strides by allowing the insertion of cameras and instruments through a single incision, often resulting in no visible scarring. Smaller systems like the SurgiBot-SPIDER aim to make robotic surgery more cost-effective, but they are still awaiting FDA approval.
The Era of Flexible Robots
Recent developments have given rise to robots constructed from soft, flexible materials. Biocompatible materials and 3D-printed soft plastics enhance safety by allowing robots to change shape and mechanical properties in response to touch. These robots also offer greater instrument flexibility and elongation options, optimizing their precision.
Advancements in Haptic Feedback
Tissue property modeling has paved the way for haptic feedback in robotic surgery. Robots now sense the force applied by shape reconstruction, enabling active adjustment of the payload. Variable stiffness in different segments of an endoscope allows flexible movement within soft organs without complications.
Biomimetic Robots: Nature-Inspired Innovation
Everting pneumatic tubes have led to the development of biomimetic robots that can elongate, maneuver through tight spaces, and navigate corners with ease. Inspired by nature, these robots hold promise for remote manipulation.
Notable Robotic Surgical Systems
Innovations continue to flourish in the field of robotic surgery. Newer colonoscopic surgical robots focus on adjustable stiffness, detectability, bendability, and controllability. For instance, the “Endotics” system mimics inchworm-like mobility to enhance colonoscopic accuracy. Constrained tendon-driven serpentine mechanisms expand the workspace, improving control over bending.
The NeoGuide colonoscopy system introduces compliance, safe interaction with the body, actuation, sensing, dexterity, and an extended workspace. Its unique design allows for variable stiffness control, enhancing patient comfort during endoscopy.
Specialized Robotic Systems
Robotic technology has also found applications in neurosurgery. The Minimally Invasive Neurosurgical Intracranial Robot (MINIR) utilizes advanced mechanisms for brain tumor removal. Cable-driven systems like the Flex system offer increased flexibility while occupying less space than traditional alternatives.
Exploring Unconventional Designs
In the quest for innovation, robotic designers have drawn inspiration from nature. The Meshworm and Invendoscope mimic earthworm movement for colonoscopy procedures, while the STIFF-FLOP soft robot emulates the dexterity of an octopus arm, offering modular stiffening and bending capabilities.
Pushing Boundaries with the Aer-O-Scope
The Aer-O-Scope, an Israeli creation, is a self-propelling colonoscope. It relies on carbon dioxide propulsion, eliminating the need for external pushing. This innovation enhances patient comfort during colonoscopy.
Remote Guidance under MRI-Based Systems
Incorporating robotics into MRI-based guidance has improved the detectability of scopes. By eliminating electromagnetic interference, these systems offer precise control and enhanced safety.
Expanding Horizons: Imaged-Guided Therapy
Noninvasive robots have also found their place in imaged-guided therapy. The CyberKnife, an FDA-approved platform, combines robotics with image-guided radiosurgery. High-intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU) therapy, coupled with robotic manipulators, promises non-invasive thermotherapy.
The Future of Robotic Surgery: NOTES and Beyond
Advancements in robotic technology have brought natural orifice transluminal endoscopic surgery (NOTES) closer to reality. These innovations offer increased instrument stability, traction, proper positioning, dexterity, and imaging quality, making surgery truly non-invasive.
Miniature In Vivo Robots: A Leap Forward
Miniature in vivo robots, developed by Virtual Incision and the Center for Advanced Surgical Technology (CAST), introduce a novel approach. Entire MIS surgical platforms are inserted into the peritoneal cavity. These robots, equipped with two arms and multiple functionalities, offer scarless surgery and can be operated by inexperienced surgeons under the guidance of experts. Their mobility and versatility extend patient access to various settings, from outer space to remote medical emergencies.
Capsule Robots: Tiny Marvels
Capsule robots, miniature endoscopes, find utility in diagnostics, surgeries, and drug delivery. Manipulated via magnetic interactions, these untethered devices offer exceptional freedom of movement, causing minimal tissue damage and ensuring rapid accessibility.
A Glimpse into the Future: Microbots
Microbots, although a futuristic concept, hold immense potential. They require no incisions and can be introduced into the circulatory system, navigating to specific destinations.
Revolutionizing Surgery with Microrobots
Microrobots represent a departure from traditional master-slave systems, offering unparalleled access, telemanipulation accuracy, and miniaturized functionality. As technology evolves to address key challenges, microrobots stand poised to revolutionize the field of surgery.
The journey of robotic surgery, from its inception to its current state, is a testament to human innovation and the relentless pursuit of excellence in medical science. With each advancement, the horizon of possibilities expands, offering the promise of safer, more precise, and increasingly accessible surgical procedures.

Let’s start this episode with Arisa Ichigaya where she looked up the rankings, only to find Poppin’ Party sitting currently in 22nd place.
While it’s a good thing that they’re gaining traction in BanG Dream! Girls Band Challenge, it’s not enough for PoPiPa to land them a spot at the Budokan.
So, Arisa Ichigaya told Kasumi Toyama and the rest to step up their game if they wish to perform at the Budokan. Otherwise, performing there is nothing but a pipe dream.
But yes, Poppin’ Party will do their best but I think it might be too late for Kasumi and the rest to land a spot at the Budokan final because only the top 2 girls bands will perform there.
Currently, RAISE A SUILEN is sitting in 1st place while Roselia moves down to 2nd place after the previous episode.
And speaking of Roselia, they’re still being affected by their loss against RAS, especially Sayo where she doesn’t want to lose again as she trains harder.
Of course, her twin-sister Hina is worried that Sayo is pushing herself too much.
Meanwhile, looks like there’s no animosity between RAISE A SUILEN and Roselia after their showdown like Masuki Sato for example where she found out that Ako Udagawa is so friggin’ cute in her chuunibyou persona.
Then again, Ako just froze up after seeing her mean glare. Well, looks like Udagawa can’t do her chuuni routine in front of Masking.
With that said, they’re just chilling out where both bands are having a pep talk (with the exception of Chu2 and a bit from Sayo Hikawa). So yeah, there’s no animosity there!
Now then, looks like Afterglow is here to cheer Roselia up as Moca Aoba show something cool to Yukina Minato and the rest.
See this board from Moca’s phone? Roselia fans made a majestic flower!
Really, it’s nice that despite being the losers on that day, Roselia has some fans who are there to support them.
Unfortunately, seems that Roselia got caught in some trouble when Sayo Hikawa collapsed. Well, looks like Sayo shouldn’t push herself too much.
Good thing Hina is here to take care of her twin-sister because she really loves Sayo, although Sayo doesn’t want to be clingy to her boppin’ twin-sister Hina.
Also, the rest of Roselia is here to check their guitarist to see if she’s fine. I mean, Ako-chan is worried that Sayo might miss out on the upcoming Future World Fes.
Fortunately, Sayo Hikawa is doing fine and it’s all thanks to Yukina Minato and the rest of Roselia, as well as Hina Hikawa, for supporting her through these hard times.
Anyways, Sayo Hikawa has finally recovered as she’s ready to rock the house down.
Speaking of Roselia, while they’re sitting pretty in 2nd place in BanG Dream! Girls Band Challenge, I think Yukina Minato and the rest will focus on Future World Fes which means that various girls bands will take that spot.
And so, I’ll leave this episode as Roselia performs “FIRE BIRD” at the Over the Future concert, which will be the lead-up concert for Future World Fes.
Now then, let’s hope that Poppin’ Party will get 2nd place so that Kasumi Toyama and the rest will perform at the Budokan! Anyways, I’ll see you next time.

I wish I told my 11-years old self, that you are perfect the way you are.
That I didn’t have to be someone else in order to be accepted,
Because I knew, at that moment in time, they didn’t like the Asian girl who moved to Florida from the small country of Hong Kong.
I wish I told myself that it didn’t mean you had twenty friends,
They’re automatically your friends, but they’re only acquaintances.
You didn’t have to pay for people’s lunches
Because you thought you were doing a justice to yourself that you belonged to that group.
I wish I told myself that I didn’t have to do their homework in order to be closer to the popular kids and not to have the unnecessary urge to fit in
Because I felt unwanted and worthless.
I wish I told myself, I was beautiful and that I didn’t have to be “her” in order for people to notice me
Because I was a “nobody”, but in a reality I was just a hidden ruby in the pile of diamonds.
I wish the 11-years-old me, knew all these things so she didn’t have to be made fun of, to look down on, and to have the so-call friends turn into her bullies.
I wish she knew that at the very first moment that she’s good enough for herself and nobody’s opinion mattered but hers.
