When Gustavo Camacho stepped off an airplane that had just landed in Cuba, a mob of greeters welcomed him and his fellow musicians.
“It almost seemed like they were waiting for a rock star to emerge from the airport,” he said.
Neither Camacho, an assistant professor at Western Washington University, nor any of the other musicians he traveled with from the U.S. are rock stars. The crowd was greeting anyone landing in Cuba.
However, their musical tour did have its place in history: It was the first time an outside professional brass quintet had toured Cuba in at least 50 years, maybe ever.
Camacho and music faculty from three other universities in the U.S. toured Cuba the first week of May. They were billed as “The Brass Quintet of the Americas,” and performed in Havana, Sancti Spiritus, and Santiago de Cuba.
Brass quintets, which consist of two trumpets, a trombone, a horn and a tuba, did not become popular in the U.S. until the 1960s, when Cuba was already established in a socialist system. Since then, brass quintets have become a common brass chamber ensemble in the rest of the world.
Camacho plays horn and is an assistant professor of brass at WWU. He was born in Mexico and has spent time in Russia and China, but said, “I’ve never been in such an alien place such as Cuba.” Everywhere he went on the trip, Camacho said he was reminded how different the culture is.
“It was like you had been transported back in time,” Camacho said. “It was a surreal experience.”
He said the streets were dominated by Chevrolets from the 1950s and Soviet Union cars from the 1960s and ’70s.
He noted that many buildings hadn’t been renovated in at least half a century. He remembers seeing one building that looked like “a bomb had gone off” — metal beams had collapsed, and rubble cluttered the floor. Then, a little girl walked out holding a stick, and he realized the broken-down building was her home.
Most citizens had no access to the Internet at home and must pay for public Internet access. Because of that, musicians have trouble printing their own music. Camacho said he met only one trombonist in Cuba with a computer and a printer, but he didn’t have any ink, and a new ink cartridge would cost more than his monthly wage.
Yet for Camacho, it was equally as surprising that there were no brass quintets.
“It was just an astounding thing to realize that the brass quintet didn’t exist in Cuba because it’s such a popular chamber ensemble in the rest of the world,” he said.
The tour was organized by Mike Davison, a music professor at the University of Richmond. It was the 29th time he has visited Cuba in the last two decades.
Davison was finally able to bring along an American brass quintet to perform this year. He doubts the improved relationship between the U.S. and Cuban governments had to do with the success in bringing the quintet along with him, however. It had more to do with meeting “the right people,” including prominent Cuban composer Daniel Guzman, Davison said.
Davison keeps returning to Cuba because he said it’s one of the most musically rich countries in the world. Yet there are certain musical concepts that have not translated from the outside world into Cuba. When Davison told Guzman he wanted to bring a brass quintet, Guzman told him he had never seen one in Cuba.
Davison and Camacho and some of the other members of the quintet met while working at Interlochen Center for the Arts in Michigan. After the quintet performed in Santiago de Cuba for a music festival called Concierto Santiago 2015, people came up to them stunned that only five instruments created what sounded like an orchestra.
“They hadn’t heard anything like it before,” Camacho said.
Though the two cultures have been separated, the disparity between the two, musically, is not as wide as people might think, Camacho said.
“It’s not that different,” he said. “And maybe what that says is that our cultures are more connected than we think.”

The John Muir Award is a national environmental award which encourages participants to enjoy wild places and have a role in caring for nature. In Cumbria it is managed by John Muir Award Manager, Graham Watson, hosted and supported in the role by the Lake District National Park, enabling both residents and visitors to enjoy, learn about and care for the environment around them.

Graham Watson, John Muir Award Manager for Cumbria said: “I’m delighted that the Lake District is once again supporting the John Muir Award in the region, it’s such a popular framework for people to use here in Cumbria and really reflects the values of the National Park.
“People who take part in the award connect with the Lake District in a new way; it reinforces their understanding and appreciation of this world class landscape, strengthening their connection with the Lake District.”
In order to achieve the award participants must demonstrate that they can discover a wild place, explore its wildness and take responsibility for its conservation and whilst being open to all the award is popular and widely used by schools.
Shelagh Hughes, Head Teacher, St Herbert’s Primary School said: “In my experience, their hands on experience during the activities excites and inspires them to continue to conserve and be aware of the natural world.”
Kerry Powell, Director of Communications and Resources at the Lake District National Park said: “We see the huge value that the John Muir Award brings to the Lake District, providing vital awareness and education of how we can work together to protect this special World Heritage Site.

As governments across nations strive to implement safe distancing measures in nearly every segment of their societies, the incarcerated population remains among the most vulnerable groups throughout the COVID-19 pandemic.
Overcrowding continues to be a major crisis in prisons where strict safe distancing and hygiene measures are difficult to implement consistently, which poses high risks to the wellbeing and dignity of prisoners.
Director-General of the World Health Organisation (WHO) Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus — in a joint statement with Executive Director at UNODCG Ghada Fathi Waly, UNAIDS Executive Director Winnie Byanyima, and the UN High Commissioner for Human Rights Michelle Bachelet on Thursday (14 May) — urged governments to opt for “non-custodial measures” over actions such as pretrial detention.
Governments must also take into consideration releasing older prisoners and those with pre-existing health conditions — both of whom have been found to be most susceptible to the deadly coronavirus.
Compulsory detention and rehabilitation centres for individuals suspected of drug abuse or addiction, or those partaking in sex work, should also be shut down during this period, said the UN leaders.
“There is no evidence that such centres are effective in the treatment of drug dependence or rehabilitation of people and the detention of people in such facilities raises human rights issues and threatens the health of detainees, increasing the risks of COVID-19 outbreaks,” they added.
Govts must ensure prisoners have uninterrupted access to free essential healthcare
Governments, said the UN officials, have an obligation to ensure that incarcerated persons have access to free essential health services, as well as “decent” living and working conditions “irrespective of any state of emergency”.
“There must be no discrimination on the basis of the legal or any other status of people deprived of their liberty.
“Health care in prisons, including preventive, supportive and curative care, should be of the highest quality possible, at least equivalent to that provided in the community,” their statement read.
Prison populations, the officials noted, “have an overrepresentation of people with substance use disorders, HIV, tuberculosis (TB) and hepatitis B and C compared to the general population”.
“Beyond the normal infectivity of the COVID-19 pandemic, people with substance use disorders, HIV, hepatitis and TB may be at increased risk of complications from COVID-19,” they warned.
Health authorities must thus collaborate with prison officers and the relevant authorities “to allow people to continue their treatments without interruption at all stages of detention and upon release”.
“Countries should embrace a health systems approach, where prisons are not separated from the continuity-of-care pathway but integrated with community health services.
“Enhancing prevention and control measures in closed settings as well as increasing access to quality health services, including uninterrupted access to the prevention and treatment of HIV, TB, hepatitis and opioid dependence, are therefore required,” the statement read.
Medical workers and service providers, as well as prison staff, who work in closed settings “should be recognized as a crucial workforce for responding to the COVID-19 pandemic and receive appropriate personal protective equipment and support as necessary”, the UN added.
Prisoners tested positive for COVID-19, or show symptoms of such, should also be “monitored and treated in line with the most recent WHO guidelines and recommendations”.
“All cases of COVID-19 in closed settings should be notified to responsible public health authorities, who will then report to national and international authorities,” the statement read.
Govts must suitably make provisions to uphold human rights of prisoners, including allowing “enhanced access” to alternative means of communication if visits are limited
During this time of crisis, governments must continue to uphold the human rights of incarcerated people and suitably make provisions if certain personal liberties are temporarily curtailed for safety reasons, according to WHO and the other UN health agencies.
“The disruptive impact of such measures should be actively mitigated, such as through enhanced access to telephones or digital communications if visits are limited,” they said.
“Certain fundamental rights of people deprived of their liberty and corresponding safeguards, including the right to legal representation, as well as the access of external inspection bodies to places of deprivation of liberty, must continue to be fully respected,” they added.
Persons incarcerated for “minor, non-violent offences”, particularly women and juvenile offenders, should also be considered as those who could be released during this pandemic “without compromising public safety”.
“Acknowledging that the risk of introducing COVID-19 into prisons or other places of detention varies from country to country, we emphasize the need to minimize the occurrence of the disease in these settings and to guarantee that adequate preventive measures are in place to ensure a gender-responsive approach and preventing large outbreaks of COVID-19,” the statement read.
In Southeast Asia, Indonesia granted early release to over 38 thousand prisoners in April to prevent the spread of COVID-19 in the archipelagic nation’s overcrowded prisons.
The country’s federal government plans to continue granting the release or parole to a total of 50,000 prisoners.
However, the measure was not welcomed by the public and even by the prisoners themselves.
Campaign & Advocacy Officer at Indonesian Act for Justice (AKSI) Yohan Misero said in the “Reducing Incarceration in the Time of Covid-19” webinar today that the Ministry of Law was even sued by several civil society groups — whose members are legal activists — for releasing tens of thousands of prisoners.
While such groups raised concerns on the safety in their neighbourhood after a number of the prisoners released had gone on to re-offend, Misero posited that on a larger scale, the objection of the release of prisoners is rooted in stigma and discrimination.
According to trends on incarceration based on data from the Department of Criminology and Criminal Justice at Southern Illinois University, Indonesia ranked second in Southeast Asia in the list of the region’s most overcrowded prison capacity at 204.95 per cent overcapacity.

Oops! Have you stained your favorite cashmere shawl or spilled a little wine down the front of your new cashmere sweater? We've all been there and know the stress that comes with a bright, fresh stain on a precious piece of clothing.
You may be wondering if you'll ever be able to restore your cashmere once you stain it. The good news is that yes, you can! With some care, you can save the fabric from being ruined with unsightly stains.
In this simple guide, we'll teach you how to remove stains from cashmere and how to care for your apparels to keep them looking as fantastic as the day you bought them.
Common Types of Stains
Whether you've had a food mishap or found a stain on your cashmere sweater after taking them off, seeing a smudge on your favorite cashmere can cause you to break into a cold sweat. Stains are an unavoidable part of life.
Before you start panicking, it's important to figure out where the stain has come from in the first place. This will help you treat the stain properly before washing your cashmere clothing and will leave them looking as good as new.
Usually, you'll find that there are several common sources of these stains, including:
Sweat stains are perhaps the most common type of stains you'll find on your clothing, whether they're made from cotton or cashmere. These stains are generally a result of perspiration (sweating) or residue from deodorants and can cause white or yellow stains in the armpit area of your cashmere garments.
If you don't act quickly with these stains, they can start to yellow even further and can even cause odors to stick to your clothes.
Sometimes, makeup can transfer onto your clothing. Foundation, lipstick, and powder products are normally the culprits of these nasty stains and can cause a lot of worry and frustration.
This is particularly true when you've been wearing red lipstick or if your foundation leaves beige or brown streaks on the fibers of your cashmere sweaters!
Since most makeup products contain certain pigments and oils, treating your cashmere garment as soon as possible is essential for keeping your clothes in tip-top shape.
If you're a wine drinker, you've probably heard of tannins. But did you know that other food products and beverages contain tannins, too? Some examples of this include coffee, tea, and fruits like strawberries and blueberries.
We've all had food and drink spills, which doesn't feel like the end of the world. Unless you're wearing cashmere clothes, that is. Tannins can bind to the natural wool fibers of cashmere pretty quickly, so it's important to make sure that you treat these stains as quickly as you can.
Dye stains can come from several sources like synthetic dyes, inks, or even from plant pigments like grass stains.
Usually, you'll find these types of stains if you wash your cashmere clothing with other items of clothing that use synthetic dyes. When you wash cashmere clothing in the machine with other garments, these dyes can bleed and seep into the fibers of your cashmere clothes.
Naturally, separating white or light-colored clothes and colors can help to avoid these little accidents. Still, there are some cases where this is unavoidable. Luckily, if you notice these color bleeds as soon as they happen, there is still some hope for restoring your cashmere garments.
Besides the dreaded wine stain, oil-based stains come in as a close second as one of the worst stains to deal with. Since oil and water don't mix well, it can be tricky to remove these stains and get rid of any traces of them that may cling to the natural fibers of your cashmere garments.
Although oil-based stains usually require hot water to liquefy the grease, it's really important to remember that hot water and cashmere garments just don't mix. Instead, cold water and a high-quality cashmere wash are always best - even when you're dealing with oil!
Protein stains can be challenging to tackle since they can come from a range of sources. These stains are usually a result of animal-based products like meat, eggs, and dairy. However, they can also come from bodily fluids like urine or blood.
So, if you have a mischievous pet that tends to tinkle on clothes that are left on the floor or you've come into contact with certain products when you're cooking, it's likely that the stains on your cashmere are caused by proteins.
In some cases, you may be dealing with a combination stain. These stains come from products that have a combination of ingredients that can cause more than one stain type. For example, some makeup products can cause oil-based stains and dye stains from the pigments used in your go-to lipsticks.
Pre-Treating the Stains on Cashmere
When it comes to removing stains from cashmere, it's essential to start by pre-treating the stain. This makes it a lot easier to wash out the stains in one go rather than treating the same stain over and over again.
The stain removal process for cashmere is more meticulous than for standard fabrics, which means you'll need to take extra care of the soft fibers. It also means that normal stain removal techniques aren't going to work as well and may also damage your cashmere garments.
For items that are lined or can't be hand or machine-washed, you're going to want to spot-treat the stain rather than pre-treat it. You can do this by using stain removers that are specially formulated for wool fibers and dabbing these treatments onto the stain. Be careful to avoid rubbing, though! You can then use cold water on a clean, damp, and lint-free cloth to rinse the solution away.
On other cashmere items like blankets, sweaters, or shawls, you can use the same stain remover. However, this time, you can use it as intended. Some products may suggest soaking your cashmere garment in the solution before washing, while others may need to be applied and left to soak in before washing.
Just be sure to test the stain remover on a small (and inconspicuous) part of the item before using it on larger stains, since they may have a bleaching effect on colored cashmere.
Once you're sure that the product is safe, you can apply it to the stain, being sure to follow the manufacturer's instructions carefully.
After rinsing out the solution (if necessary), it's time to move on to the washing stage.
Getting rid of cashmere clothing stains takes time and a whole lot of patience! There are still a few steps left in the stain removal process, of which the washing step is perhaps the most important.
One of the best tips to keep in mind is to hand wash your cashmere rather than tossing your item into the washing machine. When you're washing cashmere by hand, you've got full control over how the garment is treated and you can ensure that the integrity of the wool fibers stays intact.
Another crucial thing to remember is to always use cold water to wash cashmere. Hot or warm water can damage the fibers or cause shrinkage, which is the last thing you want.
To remove stains from cashmere by hand washing your items, you can follow these easy steps for a stress-free process:
- Fill a sink with cold water and add a high-quality cashmere wash (we highly recommend the Wool & Cashmere Shampoo).
- Place your cashmere garment into the water and ensure it's fully submerged.
- Use your hands to move the water around until the shampoo starts to create suds. This will cover the entire garment or item with the shampoo, which will make it more effective.
- If necessary, gently massage the shampoo into the stain to help loosen it. Be careful with this step, though, and avoid rubbing the fabric together or using other tools to scrub it. Rather, use your fingers to rub over the stain.
- To help you feel absolutely certain that the stain is gone, you can leave your cashmere item to soak in the soapy water. You may want to set a timer for this step since you don't want to leave it soaking for too long. Around 30 minutes or less should do the trick.
- Remove the item from the water and run cold water through it to rinse out all of the shampoo. Keep running the water through until there isn't any soap left.
- One thing you don't want to do is wring out cashmere. Instead, place the item on a flat surface and press out any excess water.
To keep the shape of your cashmere, you can lay it on a flat surface with a towel beneath it or onto a drying rack. Either way, it should be flat and shouldn't hang down anywhere. The weight of the water in the fabric can cause stretching, which is why it needs to stay level.
If there is still a lot of excess water in the fabric, you can place another towel on top of the item and roll it up. Then, press down gently to squeeze the water out and return it to its original position, keeping it leveled.
Top tip: Don't leave your item to dry in direct sunlight, since this can cause sun bleaching and other damage to the fibers. Rather, lay it flat in a room with good natural airflow and leave it in place until it is completely dry.
Forget what you've read about storing delicate fabrics! Plastic bags and storage bins aren't always the best option for your clothing, especially when it comes to cashmere.
Storing cashmere items actually couldn't be easier. All you need to do is ensure that it is clean and dry before you pack it away. Otherwise, you can attract pests like bugs that can damage the fabric.
For jackets and other structured items, you'll want to hang these items on a sturdy wooden hanger. Other items can be folded neatly (after they have been steamed to remove wrinkles or creases) and packed away into your wardrobe.
How to Treat Stubborn Stains on Cashmere?
Sometimes, no matter how hard you try, there are some stains that just won't budge. Although this can be frustrating (and cause a lot of panic), you don't need to give up on your cashmere item just yet. There are still two more solutions that you can try.
The first solution is to repeat the stain-removal process. Some stubborn stains may take two or three treatments or washes to completely rid them of any lingering dirt or pigments. You'll also want to leave the garments to dry completely since there are certain stains that will lighten once the items dry.
If this still doesn't work, it may be time to take your items to the dry cleaners. Professional dry cleaners may have better luck at removing stains with specialized treatments and equipment.
Although having a stain on your gorgeous cashmere items can leave you feeling worried, knowing how to treat these stains can help put your mind at ease.
With these expert tips and a high-quality cashmere wash that is specially formulated for gentle fabrics, you can easily remove stains from your cashmere sweater. It will be as if it never happened!
Is it safe to use bleach on cashmere to remove stains?
Bleach should never be used on cashmere items. This chemical is too harsh for such a delicate fabric and can cause lasting damage to your items. Instead, you'll want to use products that are designed for treating cashmere.
How should I handle piling while removing stains from cashmere?
If you've accidentally rubbed your cashmere item a little too much during the washing process, it may cause piling. However, this can easily be remedied with a fabric shaver or cashmere comb.

Composting is the decomposition or breakdown of organic waste materials by a mixed population of micro-organisms (microbes) in warm, moist and aerated environment. The wastes are gathered together into a heap so that the heat that is evolved in the process can be saved. As a result the temperature of the heap rises, thereby speeding up the basic degradation process of nature that normally occurs slowly in organic wastes, which fall on the surface of the ground. The final product of the process is compost or humus that is of value in agriculture for improving the structure and moisture retention properties of the soil and for supplying plant nutrients as compost finally breaks down to mineral matter.

On the verdant western slope of Preah Vihear mountain, a distant sound shakes the leaves on the trees: BOOM!
The riotous birds fall silent, and for a moment everything is still. Then everyone’s heartbeat settles down, and the birdsong returns to normal.
It’s just a controlled detonation of a land mine by the deminers of Halo Trust, who have been working since early February to undo the damage left by years of warfare. Hundreds of mines and unexploded ordnance have been found so far
“We find at least 10 to 20 mines a day,” says Khun Sothy, location manager for Halo Trust. “We think there may be tens of thousands of mines here, laid by Vietnamese and Khmer Rouge soldiers.”
Khun Sothy, who was visiting the 18-man crew assigned to make safe a wider path up the mountain, had climbed to the mountaintop shortly after dawn to take a look at the fabled temple. He was virtually the only visitor.
Since Thai soldiers closed the border crossing on Dec 17, only a handful of people have come to Preah Vihear. Most flew in by helicopter rather than climb up the long trail from the Cambodian plain—although villagers say one foreigner was carried up in a sling.
The deminers are working on the top part of the trail, which leads from the temple complex to a small village about half a kilometer to the west, on the side of the mountain.
White stakes and white-painted rocks mark the safe part of the trail, which is used daily by the approximately 650 villagers, vendors and soldiers who live on the mountain.
Blood-red stakes mark the spots where mines have been found. “We got eight anti-personnel mines yesterday,” says Khem Seng, a 35-year-old deminer who has been at Preah Vihear since Feb 8. “Oh! There are so many land mines here!”
He earns $145 a month for his work, which he began in late 2000. Once he passed 100 mines, he lost count of how many he has found. Dangerous as the work is, he likes it; it feels good to know he is saving people from being maimed or killed.
A few meters away, co-worker Meas Sophat πgently brushes a patch of dirt. His electronic mine detector beeped furiously when he passed it over this spot; he is sure there is something here.
Another brush, and there it is: the rounded edge of a small canister, looking like a harmless old tuna fish can. He passes the detector over it again, and it screams—then picks up something else about 60 centimeters away: Another mine. Both are less than a meter from the path used every day by the mountain’s residents.
The deminers are not surprised. The path they are working along was once a road built by Khmer Rouge commander Ta Mok, who would logically have set traps to defend it.
There are no maps to indicate where the mines are laid. The men must work meter-by-meter, carefully clearing the undergrowth before probing for mines. They say they have no idea how long the job will take.
Once the mountaintop is finished, they will have to clear the site for a proposed new village 1 km away from the temple entrance.
“Our first goals are to demine where they want to build the road, school, hospital and houses,” says manager Khun Sothy. “I hope…most of the mines were laid in the foothills.”

Title: Devil Dog: The Amazing True Story of the Man Who Saved America
Author: David Talbot
Illustrator: Spain Rodriguez
Published: 2010 by Simon & Schuster (Pulp History Series)
It’s almost impossible to fathom the life of Smedley Darlington Butler. He began his military career at 16 (in 1898, in response to the supposed Spanish attack on the U.S.S. Maine off the coast of Cuba), and spent the next 34 years rucking and getting shot at in China, the Philippines, Central America and the Caribbean. He would also serve in WWI, being deployed in France.
If that were not enough, consider that in Butler’s final years he was among the country’s most decorated veterans and fiercest critics. Just 5 years before he died, he wrote a book called “War is a Racket” about the nature of the U.S. military industrial complex—a slogan that still gets used today in the anti-war movement.
Unfortunately Smedley Butler’s incredible story fades with each generation. The idea that “War is a racket” became at risk of becoming just another dusty and out-dated slogan of protest.
What “Devil Dog” brings to the table is a remix on a story that’s too good to forget in the past and too important to leave on the fringes.
Staying true to the look and feel of its “Pulp History” series, Devil Dog is actually a book of prose dotted with vibrant comic art by the wonderful Spain Rodriguez, in addition to press clippings and other contemporary visuals- art, photographs, etc.–all of which lends to the “Pulp” nostalgia that the series is shooting for. It is, much to my pleasant surprise, a very artfully written piece—you can tell Talbot is engaged by the story and wants you to feel it, too—with each chapter feeling like its own self-standing story of adventure, suspense, romance. Spain’s illustrations, especially with the Technicolor palette choice, really give the book the feel of an old pulp adventure comic.
More importantly, Smedley’s anti-imperialist politics aren’t editorialized by the book’s creators. In fact David Talbot goes out of his way to illuminate much of Butler’s military adventures (even prior to his anti-war awakening) as campaigns of corporate adventurism. He has probably taken a cue from Butler’s own memoir-styled book, where he is looking back on everything that he did with mature hindsight.
I would recommend this work to anyone interested in American war / anti-war history: it truly is a gem. The narrative is one that works well for being told aloud—if it weren’t for a few passages of sex and violence, it would be an amazing story to read to kids.
If you want to know more about the work, S&S actually made a trailer for their Pulp History series- and you can check that out here:

The UK’s Channel 4, a minority station in terms of audience share but, publicly-owned, part of the UK’s broadcast establishment, is at loggerheads with Publicis Media over a 2019 sales deal.
Publicis spends about £125m a year with C4 and C4, as most broadcasters do, wants to tie prices to the amount Publicis spends with it. Publicis, which hasn’t said anything on the record so far, is said to want to tie prices to audience share.
This is a problem for C4 which doesn’t deliver very big audiences – 5-6 per cent of the total TV audience max – although it has a historic strength in delivering supposedly hard-to-reach younger audiences. These, though, are exactly the people migrating to Netflix and other subscription or free online services.
Six years ago C4 had a similar spat with WPP which was eventually resolved.
Publicis UK’s media clients include Lidl, Samsung and Visa although the biggest, Procter & Gamble, has its own deal with C4 so shouldn’t be affected.
No advertiser likes to see their ads disappear from a main medium although it’s hard to argue that the price for these should not be tied to audience delivery, as long as this isn’t an opportunity for media agency bullying.
But C4, faced with a government instruction to move many of its activities outside London, needs to fight its corner to remain a viable independent broadcasting force. Otherwise the dreaded prospect of privatisation will rear its head again.

Eric Adams was sworn in as New York City’s Mayor on New Year’s Day. He decided to skip the honeymoon period after taking office and went straight to making everyone hate him within 72 hours. Bravo. Slow clap for you, mister. How did he accomplish this feat in record response time? It’s all about the swagger.
“When a mayor has swagger, the city has swagger. We’ve allowed people to beat us down so much, that all we did was wallow in COVID.”— The Recount (@therecount) January 3, 2022
— NYC Mayor Eric Adams (D) pic.twitter.com/rgKN13Ssnm
First off, New York City hasn’t had swagger since Disney took over Times Square and the SatC ladies introduced everyone to Magnolia cupcakes. Every transplant who moves here from middle America and calls the cops on their neighbors for being too noisy brings our swagger points down. Every Target Express that opens brings us one step closer to being a swagger-less city.
Second, no one wants a mayor with swagger. Are we living in an episode of Starsky and Hutch? What the hell is this? We want a mayor with rational and sound policy-making abilities. We want a mayor who has our back against the skyrocketing cost of living, rising Covid hospitalizations, and socio-economic inequities. Boy did we pick the wrong guy.
Eric Adams just said “Low skill workers like cooks, messengers and Dunkin’ Donuts employees don’t have the academic skills to sit in a corner office” pic.twitter.com/KaoY9MNZ8J— Achmat X (@AchmatX) January 4, 2022
My first job was at a Dunkin Donuts, and let me tell you, Mr. Swagger over here wouldn’t have lasted a single six-hour shift doing what I had to do. Doing what thousands of New Yorkers do every day to provide for their families and make ends meet. Not to mention the fact that the job market, although on the upswing under Biden, has made it necessary for plenty of people with college and advanced degrees to take lower-paying jobs to get by. There is no such thing as “low skill work.” Every job and every task takes skills. They just might not be skills you value until you need a bacon, egg, and cheese on a bagel, with a regular coffee at 6 o’clock in the morning, Mr. Swagger.
Mr. @NYCMayor, there’s no such thing as low skilled workers. That is a concept designed to suppress wages. You’re talking about people whose labor is essential to our everyday lives. Smh. https://t.co/RMBTDnq9sn— Jessica Ramos (@jessicaramos) January 4, 2022
That’s Jessica Ramos, New York State Senator and Chair of the Committee on Labor up there. It’s a bad sign if the rest of his (alleged) party are already calling him out. I know that the rest of the country (world?) is probably sick of NYC being Big News. But even United Farm Workers chimed in on this line of bullsh*t.
Anyone in a corner office can come try our “low skill” work anytime pic.twitter.com/kUWy5cWALj— United Farm Workers (@UFWupdates) January 5, 2022
In his “Swagger Speech,” Adams also managed to anger everyone in the city who has been affected by Covid-19 by accusing us of “wallowing” in the pandemic. I beg your pardon, sir.
"All we did was wallow in COVID."— Victoria Brownworth (@VABVOX) January 4, 2022
1.6M people in NYC got COVID and 40k died. What a thoughtless, callous statement to make. And ftr, one of the biggest problems of de Blasio was too much swagger.
For every progressive-minded citizen of this city there exist six pearl-clutching NIMBYs who were too afraid of Maya Wiley’s bold stance on social justice, and last year’s (righteous) rally cry to defund the police. Too many people could not imagine a strong, Black woman leading a city of this size. Or any woman. That’s how we got here. A whole bunch of people got to pat themselves on the back for voting for a Black man (see how progressive we are?), but don’t ever forget Eric Adams was a cop. He’s still acting like one. Aside from all of this gaffe-y nonsense, he’s already talking about rolling back reforms at Rikers Island and re-instituting solitary confinement. His new Department of Correction Commissioner, Louis Molina, has pushed out the Deputy Commissioner for Intelligence and Investigation, who tackled thousands of backlogged use-of-force cases over the past two years. Apparently, she wasn’t nice enough to the people she was investigating.
It’s clear which side of the issue Adams and his administration are going to take when it comes to police reform and accountability.
I don’t ever want to hear how progressive New York is again.— Michael Harriot (@michaelharriot) January 5, 2022
Y’all could’ve had Maya Wiley and elected Sgt. Ruckus instead.
We’re only five days into this administration. It’s going to be a long four years if Adams has raised everyone’s ire this fast. We’ve survived bad mayors before and we’ll survive this one, too. As one anonymous New Yorker put it when asked: “F**k. Him.”
How do you like that swagger?

You may know that I am a sock knitter. Maybe that is putting it mildly. The best part about being an avid sock knitter is the fact that I am not alone. There are many knitters with the same addiction. Knitters, who like me, must have at least one pair of socks on the needles, but usually more. I call them my sock brothers and sisters. Not really but I do feel a very deep connection.
this pic is from a while ago. :)
This leads me to a new eZine called Addicted to Sock Knitting. Have you heard of this brilliant publication that was the brain child of Debra of the popular ASK group? If you haven’t heard the eZine is all about sock knitting!
I got a chance to preview the first issue, can you say sock talk heaven?
This issue is jam-packed full of sock patterns (7), interviews, galleries of brilliant socks, and reviews of yarn shops and products. My ultimate favorite was the gallery of Mind the Gap socks.
I left the following review on the ASK website:
I thoroughly enjoyed your eZine. In my opinion you should be charging 20.00 per issue not, 7. The amount of information, patterns, interviews, tips, stories, and introduction to products is obese! I would compare the quality of your eZine to Interweaves.
You should really be proud of yourself!
Andi G. of My Sister’s Knitter Blog
Thanks to Debra, one of you lucky peeps can win a yearlong subscription to ASK eZine. The subscription consists of 4 issues, winter, spring, summer and fall. All you have to do is leave a comment here telling me what about sock knitting do you love. The comments will be open till December 27th at midnight PST. I will announce the winner on December 28th. Good luck!
Have the best day today!

Dr. Pry Suggests to Brannon That We Are at War With Russia, Albeit Not Yet Nuclear
Everyone in Washington feels that we are on the verge of a nuclear crisis. Our nuclear stores and deterrents have not been tested properly and have not been maintained in 40 years or more. Some on the left believe that we should ban the bomb. Recently some nuclear projects have been canceled at a time when we must maintain the highest level of preparedness. While we need to be prepared, Russia has over 2000 weapons at the ready, we have a mere 200 ready to go. Some believe that Russia may have as many as 8000.
While we are being taunted by Russia, China, and North Korea with nuclear weapons, the Biden administration has canceled some prime nuclear programs. Many conservatives are also saying that it is alright for us to continue to keep Ukraine supplied with weapons. This of course leaves us even less able to protect ourselves. While we help to escalate this war, we have to ask where the red line is that pushes Russia over the edge and leads to full-out nuclear conflicts around the world. The first duty of our government is to protect the American people. It is not to see how far we can push the limits of other nuclear powers.


Heating & Cooling Tips
Being energy efficient has both economic and environmental benefits. The cost savings you can experience through properly installed, energy-efficient home comfort units by Holtzople Heating & Air Conditioning are guaranteed to lower your energy bills. Take a look at some of our tips for better maximizing your home comfort:
For maximum energy efficiency, air should circulate through and around registers, radiators, baseboards, and/or cold air returns. So, don’t block these areas in your home, thinking that you’re doing yourself a favor.
Drapes and blinds can add additional insulation, so keep your drapes closed at night, when the temperature cools off and again on sunny days. But, be sure to open up your window coverings to let in the sun’s free heat, especially on the south side of your home.
Keeping the temperature in your home a few degrees cooler can lower your heating bill, so pay attention to your thermostat! Holtzople offers a range of cost-effective programmable thermostat options. Setting your thermostat to 68°F can save significantly on your energy bills, and you’ll find that programmable thermostats can really help by setting the temperature automatically at night and while you’re away from home during the day.
If you are considering installing a new home comfort system, or maybe upgrading the one you already have, consider a heat pump that increases energy efficiency. Look for the Energy Guide label that contains the SEER (Seasonal Energy Efficiency Ratio). This rating measures efficiency during the cooler season, and ideally, you want to look for 15 SEER, 12.5 EER, and 8.5 HSPF or higher. Your Holtzople Heating & Air Conditioning service technician can fully explain the Energy Guide label on your home comfort unit(s) and show you what to look for, when considering various installation options.
Your thermostat can sense heat from nearby appliances, so don’t place lamps or televisions near your thermostat. Doing so may cause it to run longer than necessary, thereby increasing your energy costs. Holtzople offers a range of cost-effective programmable thermostats, allowing you to control the temperature in your home, even when you’re away.
Make sure your home is properly insulated around walls, attics and crawl spaces. Insulation is equally important all year-round, so be sure to seal and insulate ducts that run through unconditioned spaces.
Set it to cool your home no more than 30 minutes before you get there, and if you are home during the day, try to reduce the use of heat-producing appliances such as your oven, range, dishwasher, washing machine and dryer.
Radiant flooring is a home improvement option that can cut your energy costs by as much as 30%! Radiant floor heating turns your flooring into a subtle radiator. Tubing is evenly installed throughout the floor, and warm water is circulated through the tubing, thereby heating the floor.
Be sure to keep your air filters clean. Filters should be cleaned and/or replaced once a month during warmer seasons. And, if you can do so safely, clean the exposed grill and spines on your outside air conditioning unit. If you have window-installed air conditioners, don’t block their air flow, and make sure nothing is directly in the path of the air flowing in or out of the unit.
Run exhaust fans when you shower or cook to vent warm air from the home, to ease the load on your home comfort system.

The Vancouver Canucks will be traveling with a new air carrier when they depart on their three-game road trip to California, which starts Friday in Anaheim.
The team’s change in carriers comes after their old charter service – Air Canada’s “Jetz” – spent the NHL lockout refitting a number of its first-class planes for regular travelers, not professional athletes who demand plenty of leg room, cushy seats, and — well, since we’ve never flown that way, we can only presume a couple of those chocolate fountains.
The Canucks will now use Flair Air (
Woooooo!) a service out of Kelowna, British Columbia.
No word if other NHL teams will follow the Canucks’ lead.
Assistant general manager Laurence Gilman told the Vancouver Sun that all seven Canadian teams, plus a handful of American clubs, had been using Jetz.

MANILA - It's time to "leave behind" what happened during the late strongman Ferdinand Marcos' dictatorial rule.
Former Senate President Juan Ponce Enrile had this to say Wednesday when asked about the repressive years of martial law, of which he is known as the chief architect.
Amid outcry over historical revisionism, Enrile, who was Marcos' defense minister during the military rule marked by killings and other human rights abuses, said there were more problems at hand that needed attention.
"My advice is let us leave these things behind us. Because we are beset with so many problems that we must tackle. If we're going to keep thinking always about these things, let historians make judgment in the future. Tapos na 'yun (That's over). History na 'yun (That's history)," he said.
Martial law victims recently lashed out at the 94-year-old politician when he claimed that "very few" of the dictator's critics were arrested during that time and that they were detained for "criminal acts."
But Enrile, currently seeking a Senate comeback, explained that he did not say that there were no human rights violations during martial law.
"I'm not saying that there were no people arrested or that there were no people abused. What I am saying, and I keep repeating to the public, is that we never adopted a policy of killing people with impunity," he said.
"I apologize for the people who suffered abuse if there were," he added, claiming that no one came out to file any case of abuse related to martial law. He later on admitted to "supporting" the law mandating reparation for martial law victims.
Five years ago, Enrile, as then Senate President, signed the martial law victims' reparation law, an implicit recognition of human rights abuses during the time he was Marcos' defense minister.
Martial law victims earlier came out to debunk Enrile's claims, among them former Commission on Human Rights Chairperson Etta Rosales and former Social Welfare Secretary Judy Taguiwalo, who were both tortured during the Marcos regime.
Data from Task Force Detainees of the Philippines (TFDP) showed that there were at least 9,000 victims of human rights violations during the Marcos regime (1969 to 1986), with nearly half of abuses recorded in Mindanao.
Of the total, 56 percent were arrested and detained, 13 percent were "salvaged" while 10 percent were massacred. The remaining 21 percent of abuses were experienced by people who were harassed, assaulted, or those who went missing.

Cultivora's 5 Top Picks for Capitol Hill Block Party
Photo: Capitol Hill Block Party 2012 via the Festival's Facebook
Seattle, Washington -- The Capitol Hill Block Party kicks off this Friday, so now is a good time to get your schedule in order. Now in its 17th year, Block Party has grown from a small neighborhood get together into a full on, three-day festival. What sets this fest apart is the community and location. Block Party only occupies about 3 blocks of Seattle's Capitol Hill neighborhood, which makes for a lot of close contact with other festivalgoers, but also keeps the action right in the heart of Capitol Hill's most musical area. The grounds encompass six stages, along with dozens of bars, restaurants, and stores. While it may be a bit cramped, you'll experience the best aspects of the Seattle music scene, all in one festival.

I first heard of La Luz a few months ago when they opened for The Thermals. Since then I haven't been able to get enough of them. Their surf-influenced pop sound is catchy and mesmerizing; the perfect summertime soundtrack. Mixed with their riot grrrl-esque, DIY sensibilities, these four ladies bring something new to the table, which is definitely worth a listen, or 900.
La Luz plays Saturday, July 27 at 2:15pm on the Main Stage.
Pure Bathing Culture

The soothing tunes of Portland's Pure Bathing Culture are the perfect way to end the festival on a Sunday night. Etherial, melodic tunes flow perfectly with Sarah Versprille's haunting, delicate vocals. Scout out a seat in Neumos upper level, grab a drink, and let the beautiful lullaby take you away.
Pure Bathing Culture plays Sunday, July 28 at 10pm on the Neumos Stage.
Fly Moon Royalty

This Seattle duo is on a steady up swing in the local music scene. Combining jazz, hip-hop, funk, and electronic elements, topped off with smooth vocals by Adra Boo, this combo is one you should definitely catch at Block Party. Grab your friends and boogie down to these upbeat, soulful tunes.
Fly Moon Royalty plays Friday, July 16 at 5:45pm on the Neumos Stage.

Katie Crutchfield is the sole force behind Waxahatchee, and a powerful one at that. Her singer-songwriter style harks back to similar female performers of the 90's, but with a little extra kick.
Waxahatchee plays on Friday, July 26 at 7pm on the Vera Stage.
Run The Jewels

My excitment for this collaboration between El-P and Killer Mike has been growing ever since their outstanding performance at Sasquatch!. They released their debut album for free on Fool's Gold in late June, causing quite the buzz around their summer tour. Catchy beats and hard-hitting lyrics fuel this duo, and they don't seem to be running out of steam any time soon.
Run The Jewels play Saturday, July 27 at 6pm on the Main Stage.

WHY THIS MATTERS IN BRIEF
The balance of future wars, it can be argued, will be won or lost on the quality of the AI’s that “run” future war machines … but first they have to play nice and team up.

In the past fighter pilots flew their own jets, and now Artificial Intelligence (AI) is both increasingly becoming their co-pilots, competition, and wing men as its capabilities and skills improve and it moves out of military labs and into the skies.
Now, in another advance BAE Systems has carried out its most realistic combat exercise to date using crewed and autonomous aircraft operating as teams. The demonstration at an undisclosed US Department of Defense flight test range saw fighter aircraft and drones equipped with BAE’s advanced Manned Unmanned Teaming (MUM-T) technology successfully collaborate in an “operationally representative environment.”
Military drones are old news these days, even autonomous MQ-9 Reapers like the ones that fly out of Jacksonville in Florida. They’ve gone from being curiosities to a necessary part of the inventory of an increasing number of fighting forces. However, as the technology progresses, and as some countries like China begin work on creating swarms of hypersonic drones, these robotic aircraft are not only becoming more capable, they are moving ever closer to being decision-making combat team members that work alongside crewed aircraft.
For the recent test, multiple Unmanned Air Vehicles (UAVs) used MUM-T to not only work as a group and with crewed aircraft in a combat mission exercise, but also to share data with one another. This allowed the drones to use AI to solve problems, carry out the tactics needed to complete the mission, and counter hostile actions.
During the exercise, the human pilot monitored the mission and interacted with the drones using BAE’s Human Machine Interface (HMI).
The MUM-T is designed to be open and flexible. It uses algorithms for decentralized autonomous decision-making, allowing it to adapt to new mission objectives and technology as well as be accessible to third-party developers.
According to BAE, the team of drones worked together to “develop and execute autonomously the necessary tactics to complete the mission.” The pilot in the fighter jet used a human-machine interface to monitor the mission of the drones. During the test, the pilot had the capability to interact with the drones as desired.
BAE says the next phase of testing will involve expanding the capabilities of the MUM–T and installing it in more kinds of crewed and robotic aircraft.
In addition to improving combat capabilities while reducing risks to military personnel, the technology also has civilian applications in firefighting, search and rescue operations, hazmat incidents, and law enforcement.
“The development of autonomous technology is crucial to protect our war-fighters against emerging threats,” said Ehtisham Siddiqui, vice president and general manager of Controls and Avionics Solutions at BAE Systems. “This flight test demonstrates our team’s commitment to accelerate the deployment of reliable and innovative manned-unmanned teaming solutions for mission success.”

WORCESTER, Mass. – Iris Chin Ponte, a junior at Holy Cross, has been selected as one of just 18 scholarship winners nationwide for the CBS Foundation Scholarship Program. The award carries with it a $2,500 scholarship.
The CBS Foundation Scholarship Program was designed to recognize and assist minority men and women who are interested in pursuing careers in broadcast communications in the areas of production, broadcast journalism, programming or technical operations.
Ponte, of Belmont, Mass., is a psychology major/Chinese minor. She is active on a number of boards and committees, the founder of Holy Cross Television, a member of the varsity crew team and the female a cappella group, The Delilahs.
In January, she will travel to Beijing, China, where she will study for a semester. She is planning to use the money she receives from the scholarship to purchase a laptop computer and a digital camera.
A member of the College’s Honors Program, Ponte chose to do her thesis on a comparative study of children in pre-schools in China and the United States. She decided on this topic after reading Joseph J. Tobin’s Preschool in Three Cultures: Japan, China, and the United States (Yale University Press, 1991) and realizing that research had not been done since the late 1980s.
Last summer she was an intern at Children’s Television Workshop in New York, where she worked for Sesame Street Research in both the office and the field. There, she was able to integrate her knowledge of psychology with her love of children.
While graduation is still a year away, Ponte says that she would like to continue to work in the media, creating educational children’s programs for either Children’s Television Workshop or Nickelodeon.
Founded in 1953, the CBS Foundation embodies the ideals of CBS and its history as one of the leading producers and distributors of entertainment and information programming. Since its inception in 1991, this program has provided more than $645,000 in scholarships for 344 students.

I have a Dyson DC39 that I have enjoyed using for the last few years but recently I have noticed a strange sound after I push the power button after vacuuming as the motor spins down. It's a mix of grinding and whining. a few uses after I heard the noise I smelled a burning smell. Thinking it was some hair caught in the brush-bar, I cleaned that out but the smell still persisted after use. I disassembled the vacuum and noticed that there is a fine dark residue on the inside of the motor housing and inside of the HEPA filter (I have attached pictures) and my question is, is my motor going out or do I just need new carbon motor brushes?
Thanks for any help you all can provide.

"Gateway to Space" Top 5 Page for this destination Huntsville by Tom_Fields
Huntsville Travel Guide: 65 reviews and 222 photos
After World War II, Dr. Werner von Braun, a German rocket scientist, set up his laboratory here. Known as a sleepy Southern town, Huntsville suddenly became the center of the American space effort. The Cold War was beginning, and we HAD to catch up with the Soviets--especially following Sputnik.
Starting with captured German V-2 rockets, Braun and his team developed the first generation of American space rockets. And the rest is history.
Having so many scientists, engineers, technicians, and support personnel here has been great for the town. Not only economically, but culturally. For its modest size, Huntsville has an impressive art and music scene. This is NOT just another boring hick town.
Located just a few miles off I-65, this is an excellent place for a day trip, or even a weekend visit. And there are many other attractions nearby.
- Pros:Plenty of art and culture--for its size
- In a nutshell:Great place to a short visit
Downtown Huntsville has a nice green zone, called Big Spring Park. A natural spring has bubbled up here since time... more travel advice
