Updated: May 31, 2021
Another month and another set of books to recap! I’m not going to lie, I read way more books this month than I usually do. I think it helped that quite a few were only about 230 pages or so.
Let’s get to it!
Gods of Jade and Shadow by Silvia Moreno-Garcia - finished 2/2/21 3/5 stars
I absolutely LOVED Mexican Gothic by Silvia Moreno-Garcia and was super excited about Gods of Jade and Shadow. I bought it as an add-on with Book of the Month and finally decided to pick it up and I was disappointed. Casiopea Tun serves as her family’s servant in rural Mexico during the 1920’s. But when she opens the chest at the foot of her grandfather’s bed, she meets a Mayan God who takes her away from everything she knows. The story was so strong until the end. The Mayan culture, historical setting and Latinx characters were so good. But the ending fell so flat and honestly ruined the book for me. It was a bit disappointing considering how strong the ending for Mexican Gothic was. I did see she has another book coming out this year that I’ll probably pick up.
Dearest Josephine by Caroline George - finished 2/7/21 3/5 stars
This book was all over my Instagram ads for about two weeks before its release. I bought it the weekend it came out both because of the ad and was another rec from Amy, of Authentically Amy Reads (https://www.authenticallyamyreads.com). Josie De Clare finds out her recently deceased father bought property in Northern England and she goes there to find herself. While there she discovers one of the previous owners, Elias Roch wrote to Josephine and discovers what time and challenge do to love. It was advertised as a love story that spanned hundreds of years. I found that the story fell flat and was good in idea but not execution. It felt like there was barely any connection between the two stories. I did really enjoy the writing style. The author chose to use emails, texts, letters and Elias’s novel to tell the story. It was just ok but I am looking forward to see what Caroline George writes next.
Everything, Everything by Nicola Yoon - finished 2/15/21 (audiobook) 3.5/5 stars
I committed the mortal sin of seeing the movie before reading the book. I saw the movie with Nick Robinson and Amandla Stenberg in 2017 with my sister. I enjoyed the movie but never really thought about the book until I was browsing libby. I decided to give it a go and it was just ok. I had two bones to pick with the movie after reading the book. Maddy’s mom in the book is Japanese not Black, although I did really enjoy Anika Noni Rose in the movie. It would have been cool to see a Japanese Black teenager as the role of a movie but I get why they made her Black. My largest gripe with both the book and the movie is the brushing of
The Selection by Kiera Cass - finished 2/16/21 (audiobook) 3.5/5 stars
This was a book I saw all over booktok and bookstagram. I’ve seen quite a few people recommend this series, so I decided to check it out. America Singer, a caste five singer (original I know) who becomes a part of the Selection, the competition for the crown prince’s hand in marriage. America is very much an “I’m not like other girls” girl, which is such an outdated trope. It was interesting to see a mix of romance and dystopian North America. I wasn’t in love with the story but I’m glad I gave it a chance.
The Elite by Kiera Cass - finished 2/17/21 4/5 stars
I have this thing where even if I didn’t love the first story in a series, I keep reading the books, ie. The Mortal Instruments series. After finishing The Selection, I continued the series with The Elite. America has made it to the final six contestants of the selection, or the elite. Now she has to decide if her feelings for Prince Maxon are real and the consistent rebel attacks at the capital. This book was better than The Selection. There were less characters to remember the names of and the overall development was better.
The One by Kiera Cass - finished 2/17/21 4/5 stars
I decided to stop with The One from The Selection series and not read the two additional books that follow the daughter of America. I felt that The One was a solid enough ending for me. Maxon narrows down the final six to the final four, which obviously includes America. The attacks from the rebel groups increase and so does America’s fear of commitment to the crown and Maxon. For what it was it was okay. There could have been more world building or more explanation as to why the rebel groups felt the way they did. America did not seems as annoying in this book and I actually enjoyed her character.
Shadow and Bone by Leigh Bardugo - finished 2/19/21 3.5/5 stars
This book was both a booktok/bookstagram rec and a must read for me. Netflix is coming out with a series, named Shadow and Bone, about Leigh Bardugo’s Grishaverse. The series will include the Shadow and Bone trilogy and the Six of Crows duology. I’ve been putting off starting this series cause I was in a bit of a fantasy rut, I needed a break from the genre. After procrastinating long enough I finally finished this book and I was underwhelmed. Alina Starkov is an orphan cartographer with the First Army of Ravka. During an attack in the Shadow Fold, Alina learns she’s a Grisha, witch, and is whisked away to be trained by the Darkling (who is being portrayed by Ben Barnes in the Netflix series aka Prince Caspian). I am so over the “chosen one”/ “didn’t know they had powers” trope in ya fantasy books. At this point it seems like they all have that plot point. I did find the world building to be good though, I didn’t really have any questions understanding why the world was the way it was or the types of Grisha. However, I did not empathize with Alina. I didn’t even really like her character much, I preferred the Darkling. I’m going to try and finish at least the trilogy before the show comes out in April, but I don’t know how much my opinion will change about Alina.
Fat Chance Charlie Vega by Crystal Maldonado - finished 2/21/21 4/5 stars
I saw an ad for this book and didn’t think much of it until I went to Barnes and Noble. Charlie Vega knows she’s fat. She accepts it and understands that it’s a part of who she is. She feels second best to her best friend Amelia, to guys and especially to her mom. But then she meets a guy, Brian, who doesn’t make her feel second best. It was a cute read. The characters were diverse, Charlie is half Puerto Rican half white, Amelia is Black, and Brian is half Korean. The writing felt a bit forced though, the way the characters spoke is not how teens speak now so it felt a little outdated. I really enjoyed it.
My Sister, The Serial Killer by Oyinkan Braithwait - finished 2/22/21 3/5 stars
This book has been on my to buy list for awhile and when I saw there was an ebook deal, I swooped. Korede is a nurse and the older sister to Ayoola, the serial killer. The story focuses on two men, Femi, the man Ayoola kills at the beginning and Tade, the man Korede loves and is trying to save. I really wanted to like this one. I thought the concept and the writing were so good but because it was so short the characters did not really develop. The title really gave the whole character arcs away.
A Deal with the Elf King by Elise Kova - finished 2/24/21 4/5 stars
For about two weeks I saw at least three posts a day on my Instagram discovery page recommending this book. It’s a Persephone and Hades retelling but with elves. Luella (Persephone) is a human healer in the town of Capton. The town is on edge waiting for the Human Queen to be chosen to join the Elf King, Eldas (Hades) in Midscape to keep balance in both their worlds. I thought it was pretty good. I’m not a huge Greek mythology person but I liked the application to fantasy. I also liked the author’s writing style and bought a couple more ebooks from her. I also preordered the sequel.
Honey Girl by Morgan Rogers – finished 2/28/21 3/5 stars
This book was my February Book of the Month choice. I have had this service for a while, but I have been so bad about actually reading my choices each month. So this month I decided I have to actually read my choices or start skipping months, which you can do. Honey Girl is a contemporary fiction novel about Grace Porter, a Black lesbian astronomer who has spent years trying to be perfect, only to reach a massive burn out. The story was advertised as a romance, but I would argue its more fiction. While the plot does focus on a drunk Vegas marriage it also embodies the struggles a lot of millennials have faced in the job market, being overqualified and overlooked. That being said, while I enjoyed the story I was not swept away or moved by it. It was just okay to me. I really appreciated how diverse all the characters were and it wasn’t a big deal, but I just don’t particularly like contemporary fiction.
Thank you for indulging my book roundup. Until next time!

I have uterine fibroids that are painful and bleed alot during intercourse and during my luteal phase. I also display other symptoms such as heavy periods, bad pms mood swings, bloating and cramping (with the spotting) up to 10 days before my period is actually due.
I've tried herbs, acupuncture and a diet change for the last 5 months but the fibroids are becoming more painful.
Both my saliva and blood tests have come back within the normal ranges for a 37 year old woman. So despite displaying classic estrogen dominance/progesterone deficiency my doctor will not prescribe a progesterone cream. You can't buy it over the counter here in OZ.
I have not had kids yet, my partner and I are trying to conceive but to no avail. I am giving it to the end of the year and then I'll look at having them removed via embolization, but I would like to avoid surgery if I can.

Michigan Ross Professor Develops New Tool To Help Companies Big and Small Succeed In The World's Poorest Economies
Companies looking for opportunities in the world’s poorest economies often make one big mistake: bringing in resources they assume are missing. New research by Michigan Ross Professor Ted London shows that companies can do better by “co-creating” — by understanding and using the resources that already exist in these emerging markets.
A new article, by London and Urs Jäger of INCAE Business School, in the Stanford Social Innovation Review examines this idea of co-creation in the poorest economies. The researchers identify five specific types of local resources that any company can work with to help such ventures flourish.
Important opportunities exist in these areas, often referred to as “the base of the pyramid,” where per-capita annual income is less than $3,000. The World Bank estimates that the 4.5 billion people in BoP economies — the bulk of the global population — “have spending power of more than $5 trillion per year, and the United Nations views the private sector as an important contributor to achieving its Sustainable Development Goals,” London and Jäger write.
The researchers studied dozens of companies, ranging from startups to multinational corporations, looking to expand in low-income areas in Latin America. They found a common mistake: Companies assumed that these areas needed certain assets — skills and resources that would typically be useful in wealthier contexts.
“People say, ‘I see a problem, I know how to solve it, and this is the way I'm used to solving these problems,’” London explained in a recent interview. “This approach tends to fail, because it builds expensive business models that don’t actually work in context. The infrastructure is different, the level of formality is different, and the communication mechanisms are different. So doing what you always do can be expensive and doesn't usually work. Instead, companies must co-create new models.”
The article cites the example of Gerber, which tried to apply its standard agricultural and outreach techniques to growers of organic bananas in Costa Rica. In doing so, it ignored local leaders, who could have provided credibility as well as insights on regional productivity. “As a result, the company struggled to gain acceptance from more than a fraction of the producers it targeted in the first phase of its project. Only after changing its strategy to incorporate the expertise and status of community leaders did Gerber make substantial progress on its productivity goals,” the authors write.
The article identifies five broad types of existing resources that can be a key source of co-creation for successful BoP ventures: economic assets, leadership assets, knowledge assets, innovation assets, and network assets. A useful chart accompanying the article breaks each category down further and offers specific examples of how companies have used each resource, in industries ranging from communications to fresh produce and healthcare.
“This creates a framework that applies to businesses serving this space,” London said. “These are tools that any company can use and customize.”
The article ends with a series of questions leaders can ask to decide if their company is ready for co-creation in BoP markets, and if so, to help focus that company on using existing resources for the best chances of success.
London argues that these efforts will only become more important. “Twenty years from now, if we're not serving the four to five billiion people living in base of the pyramid markets, it's inconceivable that we're going to have a sustainable world,” he said. “We cannot have most of the world excluded from the benefits of global capitalism. This is the market you really should be thinking about tapping, and here's a tool you can use to do so more effectively.”
Ted London is an associate clinical professor at the University of Michigan Ross School of Business and a senior research fellow at the William Davidson Institute.

CEDAR CITY, UT —Ignite your passion with William Shakespeare, Jane Austen, Alfred Hitchcock, Anne Frank, and Charles Dickens – all featured in the 2010 season at the Utah Shakespearean Festival (300 W. Center Street, Cedar City, UT).
The 49th season at the Festival will be one to remember, and tickets are on sale now at 1-800-PLAYTIX and www.bard.org. Tickets range from $21-$68. The Festival website also contains ratings for all nine plays to help patrons make selections that are best for their families.
"The 2010 season offers something for every member of the family,” said Executive Director R. Scott Phillips. “We have built a slate of productions that can keep us current with the themes and issues of the 21st century, and yet remain true to the mission and values that have guided this Festival for the past 48 years.”
Presented in the Adams Shakespearean Theatre from June 28 through September 4 will be three plays by Shakespeare. The romantic comedy “Much Ado about Nothing,” the sometimes controversial tragicomedy “The Merchant of Venice,”and the haunting “Macbeth.” Three additional plays will be presented in the Randall L. Jones Theatre from June 28 through August 28. A compelling adaptation of “Pride and Prejudice,” the hilarious mystery spoof “The 39 Steps,”and the world premier of “Great Expectations,” a new musical based on the novel by Charles Dickens.
The fall season will run from September 16 through October 23 with three different plays in the Randall L. Jones Theatre. The season features Shakespeare’s “Odyssey”-like drama “The Adventures of Pericles,” the Pulitzer Prize-winning play “The Diary of Anne Frank,”and the rural comedy “Greater Tuna.”
“This is truly a season of classics. Everything from Charles Dickens to William Shakespeare to Alfred Hitchcock!” said Phillips. “The creative imagination is an amazing thing, and working with literature by some of the greatest writers in the English speaking world should generate some spectacular results. I feel as though this will be a season to remember."
“The 2010 season concentrates on new adaptations of literary classics, film classics, and four of Shakespeare's magnificently complex plays which are genuine audience favorites,” added Kathleen F. Conlin, Festival associate artistic director. “Audience members will find witty and sensitive plays that entertain and enlighten in profound ways. Personally, I am thrilled by the overall ‘heft’ of these plays and how audience-friendly each of them is.”
“Much Ado about Nothing” features one of Shakespeare’s most memorable couples: Beatrice and Benedick. To them love is a game of wits. This vibrant and comic celebration of life and romance will introduce you to these famous lovers, and a host of villains, clowns, and eccentric characters. Audiences will cheer when this lively couple finally learns the realities of life, love – and themselves.
Whether you consider this thought-provoking masterpiece a story of love and humor or one of racism and greed, Shakespeare’s controversial tragicomedy “The Merchant of Venice” will touch your soul. Its themes and memorable characters will reverberate in your heart, causing you to pause and think about justice and mercy, the complexity of human kind, and the nature of forgiveness and love.
Shakespeare’s haunting and popular tragedy “Macbeth” is filled with witches, prophecy, and murder. The action of the play is spurred by a lustful wife’s ambition, and a driving taste for power that compels Macbeth to twist and tempt fate. But, in this psychological thriller, we find that murderous machinations are doomed to bitter and tragic failure.
Jane Austen’s most popular novel, “Pride and Prejudice,” is brought to life in this new adaptation. In the story Mr. and Mrs. Bennet are desperate to arrange profitable marriages for their five beautiful daughters. However, when two eligible young men arrive in the neighborhood, excitement and passion begin to rule; and the Bennet household is in danger of being tipped firmly on its end.

Old Testament: Hosea (1:2-10)
When the Lord first spoke through Hosea, the Lord said to Hosea, “Go, take for yourself a wife of whoredom and have children of whoredom, for the land commits great whoredom by forsaking the Lord.” So he went and took Gomer daughter of Diblaim, and she conceived and bore him a son. And the Lord said to him, “Name him Jezreel; for in a little while I will punish the house of Jehu for the blood of Jezreel, and I will put an end to the kingdom of the house of Israel. On that day I will break the bow of Israel in the valley of Jezreel.” She conceived again and bore a daughter. Then the Lord said to him, “Name her Lo-ruhamah, for I will no longer have pity on the house of Israel or forgive them. But I will have pity on the house of Judah, and I will save them by the Lord their God; I will not save them by bow, or by sword, or by war, or by horses, or by horsemen.” When she had weaned Lo-ruhamah, she conceived and bore a son. Then the Lord said, “Name him Lo-ammi, for you are not my people and I am not your God.” Yet the number of the people of Israel shall be like the sand of the sea, which can be neither measured nor numbered; and in the place where it was said to them, “You are not my people,” it shall be said to them, “Children of the living God.”
The Response: Psalm 85
1 You have been gracious to your land, O Lord, *
you have restored the good fortune of Jacob.
2 You have forgiven the iniquity of your people *
and blotted out all their sins.
3 You have withdrawn all your fury *
and turned yourself from your wrathful indignation.
4 Restore us then, O God our Savior; *
let your anger depart from us.
5 Will you be displeased with us for ever? *
will you prolong your anger from age to age?
6 Will you not give us life again, *
that your people may rejoice in you?
7 Show us your mercy, O Lord, *
and grant us your salvation.
8 I will listen to what the Lord God is saying, *
for he is speaking peace to his faithful people
and to those who turn their hearts to him.
9 Truly, his salvation is very near to those who fear him, *
that his glory may dwell in our land.
10 Mercy and truth have met together; *
righteousness and peace have kissed each other.
11 Truth shall spring up from the earth, *
and righteousness shall look down from heaven.
12 The Lord will indeed grant prosperity, *
and our land will yield its increase.
13 Righteousness shall go before him, *
and peace shall be a pathway for his feet.
The Epistle: Colossians (2:6-15)
As you therefore have received Christ Jesus the Lord, continue to live your lives in him, rooted and built up in him and established in the faith, just as you were taught, abounding in thanksgiving.
See to it that no one takes you captive through philosophy and empty deceit, according to human tradition, according to the elemental spirits of the universe, and not according to Christ. For in him the whole fullness of deity dwells bodily, and you have come to fullness in him, who is the head of every ruler and authority. In him also you were circumcised with a spiritual circumcision, by putting off the body of the flesh in the circumcision of Christ; when you were buried with him in baptism, you were also raised with him through faith in the power of God, who raised him from the dead. And when you were dead in trespasses and the uncircumcision of your flesh, God made you alive together with him, when he forgave us all our trespasses, erasing the record that stood against us with its legal demands. He set this aside, nailing it to the cross. He disarmed the rulers and authorities and made a public example of them, triumphing over them in it.
The Gospel: Luke (11:1-13)
Jesus was praying in a certain place, and after he had finished, one of his disciples said to him, “Lord, teach us to pray, as John taught his disciples.” He said to them, “When you pray, say: ‘Father, hallowed be your name. Your kingdom come. Give us each day our daily bread. And forgive us our sins, for we ourselves forgive everyone indebted to us. And do not bring us to the time of trial.’” And he said to them, “Suppose one of you has a friend, and you go to him at midnight and say to him, ‘Friend, lend me three loaves of bread; for a friend of mine has arrived, and I have nothing to set before him.’ And he answers from within, ‘Do not bother me; the door has already been locked, and my children are with me in bed; I cannot get up and give you anything.’ I tell you, even though he will not get up and give him anything because he is his friend, at least because of his persistence he will get up and give him whatever he needs. “So I say to you, Ask, and it will be given you; search, and you will find; knock, and the door will be opened for you. For everyone who asks receives, and everyone who searches finds, and for everyone who knocks, the door will be opened. Is there anyone among you who, if your child asks for a fish, will give a snake instead of a fish? Or if the child asks for an egg, will give a scorpion? If you then, who are evil, know how to give good gifts to your children, how much more will the heavenly Father give the Holy Spirit to those who ask him!”
by the Rev. Michael Kreutzer
It is obvious to all of us that our world today is a divided world; but then, it seems that it has always been. And it is obvious to anyone that our nation today is divided as well, although a review of our history quickly reveals that things have been much worse. And, all too often, our communities and maybe even our families and groups of other people who are nearest to us find themselves divided as well.
But, at least on the surface, there is one thing that appears to unite us all. Whenever a tragedy occurs, such as the terrible recent shootings by and of police officers, everyone involved and even people who are not directly involved supposedly want the same thing: justice. All the parties involve demand that justice be done. The problem is that “justice,” as it is called for in these situations, often has little to do with what is just, or right. Its primary meaning seems to be “revenge.” “Don’t waste time investigating and considering the often complex set of actions and misperceptions that led to this tragedy. Those other people have to be punished for what they did to me or to someone else with whom I happen to identify.” Some individuals even go so far as to taking matters into their own hands and killing innocent people, some of whom are doing their best to protect the lives and rights of others. These acts of revenge are the very antithesis of true justice.
All of today’s scripture readings have to do with wrongs done to others and with God’s response to those wrongs. And they suggest our possible response as well. Ultimately, they have to do with God’s justice.
In our first reading, Hosea draws on his own, personal pain, brought on by a repeatedly unfaithful wife, to recognize that God is in the same situation as the prophet in God’s relationship with Israel. God’s first reaction is to punish Israel severely. That punishment is symbolized by the names that Hosea gives to his three children: declaring that God will leave them without a king, without compassion, and, most devastating of all, without God. But then God’s mercy and love, which persists and transcends everything that Israel has done, rises to the fore, and God forgives the rebellious people and prepares them for a new beginning.
Our psalm begins with the recognition that the people have sinned against God in some serious way. But it recalls the memory of God’s forgiveness for them and God’s restoration of them in the past. And it calls on God to forgive once more, not denying Israel’s guilt, but relying on God’s compassion and love that have the power to heal the broken relationship.
The author of Colossians recalls the time when those in his audience were captives of their pagan way of life until God brought them forgiveness “erasing the record that stood against us with its legal demands. He set this aside, nailing it to the cross.”
And in the gospel reading, Jesus teaches his followers to forgive the debts that others owe them and then to ask God for forgiveness for their own sins. He then goes on, in the rest of the passage, to assure them of God’s forgiveness which transcends all and to call upon them to follow God’s example in forgiving.
Forgiveness does not mean forgetfulness. It doesn’t mean pretending that nothing ever happened. As Archbishop Desmond Tutu and those who worked with him on the Truth and Reconciliation Commission insisted, the past must be remembered and the truth must be told. But the past cannot be allowed to hold captive and strangle the life out of the future.
And the past cannot be allowed to hold captive and strangle the life out of the one who has been hurt either. Forgiveness sets free not only the offender, but the offended as well. As American theologian Lewis Smedes observed: “The only way to heal the pain that will not heal itself is to forgive the person who hurt you. Forgiving stops the reruns of pain. Forgiving heals your memory as you change your memory’s vision. When you release the wrongdoer from the wrong, you cut a malignant tumor out of your inner life. You set a prisoner free, but you discover that the real prisoner was yourself.” (as quote in Context, December 2010).
Ultimately, forgiveness is the only way to heal the separations that divide people from one another. In forgiving others as God has forgiven us, we open up the possibility for a new future, for a different future, for a future characterized, not by a repeating cycle of hurt and revenge, but by a new, though initially uneasy, relationship. Like those who worked to bring about reconciliation in post-apartheid South Africa, and like those who are working today to bring about reconciliation in places like Israel and the West Bank, we learn to see the situation through the eyes of the other, from his or her experience, as well as through our own. And it is only when we come to see in that new way, that true justice can emerge.
Samuel Wells, former professor and Dean at Duke University Divinity School and now Vicar of the Church of St. Martin-in-the-Fields in London, has insisted (“Forgiving Ahab,” The Christian Century, April 17, 2013): “Forgiveness shouldn’t be the last thing Christians have to say in the face of injustice. It should be the first thing.
“Forgiveness says, ‘You can hurt me, but you can’t take away my allegiance to Christ. You can be cruel to me, but you can’t make me become like you. You can crush me, but you can’t put yourself outside the mercy of God.’ …Forgiveness is the justice of God.”


Everyone is talking about Nexus 10 2ND Generation but I don’t know about a single person who have heard a single word about Nexus 10 2 release directly from Google. Although this was the same situation before the release of Nexus 5 this year but there were a lot of real leaked photos and videos of the device so those rumours were legit to some extent. But when we talk about Nexus 10 2ND generation tablet then we don’t have detailed proof to tell people that its coming in the market. Everything about nexus 10 2 from shape, size to specifications is only based on rumours.
If reports are accurate then Google must release tablet within upcoming weeks as many people have already done their holiday shopping that’s why if company wants to make some real profit then it should release the device within a week or 2. The original version of the tablet was released in November 2012 and that’s why everyone was expecting the newer version in the same month on Black Friday and then on Cyber Monday but there was nothing special on these days for nexus 10 fans.
According to latest rumours its not Samsung or ASUS who is manufacturing nexus 10 2 as its LG who is working on Nexus 10 next generation. Remember LG have also manufactured Nexus 4 and 5 smartphones. If the rumours are true then Nexus 10 2 will be a 10.1 Inch tablet with 299 pixels per inch resolution, Tegra 4 quad-core or Qualcomm snapdragon 800 (like Nexus 10) processor, android kitkat, up to 32 GB storage, 2GB or 3GB RAM, 8 mega pixels camera, micro USB and a lot more. Price could be between $349 – $399 according to storage options.
If all of these features and the rumours and real then Nexus 10 2 will be the winner over iPad Air. Christmas is also near but nothing is officially announced by Google itself, so that we may not see next nexus 10 tablet this year.

Your weblog is so cool that I like it pretty substantially. As anyone understands respect is by far the most essential amongst people's life. Only respect each other to get along properly and I believe that leaving one's opinion is often a behavior of respect.

On the eve of a historic decision, thousands of people turned up at the prime minister’s office on Monday evening to shout their opposition to his plan to reinterpret Article 9 of the Constitution to permit collective self-defense, which could pave the way for Japan to wage war.
Prime Minister Shinzo Abe’s Cabinet approved a reinterpretation of the pacifist charter at an extraordinary meeting Tuesday, allowing Japan to come to the aid of an ally under attack even when Japan itself is not.
“We will never recognize such a move,” said Ken Takada, who helped organize the rally near Abe’s office in Chiyoda Ward.
“We must be aware that we’re at a historical turning point in post-war Japan,” he emphasized. “We will continue to fight at any cost to stop the Cabinet approval tomorrow.”
Chanting “Don’t destroy the Constitution,” “We absolutely oppose reinterpretation of the Constitution,” and “We don’t need the right to collective self-defense,” the protesters carried a wide array of signs, lights and banners to get their message across to the conservative leader.
At one point, a group of apparent right-wing supporters showed up in a speaker truck to interfere with the protest but were shooed away by the police.
Estimates of the size of the rally ranged from 10,000 to 40,000 people.
“I’d like to make the public to know that there are people who are opposing” Abe’s drive to reinterpret the war-renouncing Constitution, said Takuya Shigeta, a 53-year-old resident of Fuchu, western Tokyo.
Kinue Yoshino, a 30-year-old employee from Kawasaki, said she joined the rally because she doesn’t want to see Japan take part in a war.
A woman in her 50s from Saitama who declined to be named agreed with Yoshino and said she took part to help stop that from happening.

By Shaun Rundle, CPOA Executive Director
Legislators feeling frustrated by their failed 2021 bills have reintroduced some of those measures. They join a wave of new introductions that seek to address many of the common crimes flooding California’s streets. While the Legislature is slowly starting to realize that they’re too late in combating issues like organized retail theft, they have also not even given bill hearings to measures that would address fentanyl overdoses. In other words, here we go again.
I was pleased to see that several 2-year bills from 2021 that were eligible for discussion in 2022 have been changed to no longer reflect their previous intent. These include SB 271 (Wiener-D) (sheriff eligibility)- now relates to jury information furnished to Franchise Tax Board.
Other 2021 bills are being taken up again in January, but sadly, the Legislature continues to vote down bills that would draw needed attention and action to fentanyl and controlled substances.
The below bills failed again this year:
- SB 75 (Bates-R)- Would include fentanyl in an enhancement statute under which any person convicted of any of a list of specified drug offenses receives an additional term of three years to 25 years based on the weight of the drug involved in the case.
- SB 350 (Melendez-R)- Provides for a written advisory to a person convicted of specified drug offenses notifying the person of the danger of manufacturing and distributing controlled substances and of the potential future criminal liability if another person dies because of that person’s actions.
Adversely, the Legislature passed out of the Health Committee, SB 57, which authorizes San Francisco, Los Angeles County and Oakland to operate overdose prevention sites for consumption of pre-obtained drugs.
Thus far, there have not been any huge-impact pieces of legislation introduced the way we saw last year with SB 2 (decertification) or AB 89 (peace officer education requirements). Last day for bills to be introduced is February 18th, and bill hearings, particularly in Assembly and Senate Public Safety and Judiciary Committees, in March.
Finally getting their act together, legislators are introducing bills that could essentially be categorized as Prop 47 fixes:
- AB 1957 (Waldron-R)- Reinstates provisions repealed by Prop 47 where a person who has been convicted of petty or grand theft 3 or more times and then is subsequently convicted of petty theft, be subject to a jail term of up to 3 years.
- AB 1599 (Kiley-R)- Repeals Prop 47, except for reductions in penalty for concentrated cannabis possession.
- AB 1603 (Salas-D)- Reduces threshold amount for petty theft and shoplifting from $950 back to $400, upon approval of the voters.
- AB 1613 (Irwin-D)- Expands court jurisdiction for theft, organized retail theft, or receipt of stolen property to encompass counties where the crime occurred, merchandise was recovered, and the county where anyone aiding the defendant in commission of the offense committed such act(s).
These bills were just introduced in January, so will not be heard until late February or March.

Cars 3 races into theaters Friday June 16th and we were lucky to get a sneak peek last night!
Will has fallen in love with Cars from watching the first two movies OnDemand. He had been talking about "Disney Pixar Cars" for weeks. He grabbed his little Lighting McQueen car before we headed out the door.
I honestly don't think I have ever seen an entire Cars movie. Cars 1 came out before the girls were born and 2 came out when the the girls were really young. But Will's enthusiasm for Cars 3 was enough to get all of us excited!
While Ellie and Madeline went to be supportive sisters, they both LOVED the movie. It's fun and funny with a great story that speaks to kids of all ages and genders. There are quite a few main female characters in the movie that appealed to the girls.
While this is obviously a movie for kids, the story line is very relevant for adults. Lighting McQueen is aging and is having a difficult time keeping up with the rookies. There is outside pressure to retire but McQueen doesn't think he's ready yet.
Lighting McQueen goes on a quest to get his speed back but has to face the facts that he'll never be as fast as the newer generation of race cars. He has one last chance to win again - can he do it?!
Cars 3 is a fun adventure that our family didn't want to end. Will can't wait to see it again!
Below are some fun activities to get your family ready for Cars 3 and continue the fun after you see the movie!

What is a list of sources used in an essay called?
Source and reference To some extent, these terms are synonymous; in several reference styles, the list of sources used in an academic text are called ‘References,’ for instance.
What are the different types of sources for a research paper?
Types of SourcesScholarly publications (Journals)Popular sources (News and Magazines)Professional/Trade sources.Books / Book Chapters.Conference proceedings.Government Documents.Theses & Dissertations.
What is a list of sources called?
A bibliography is a list of all of the sources you have used (whether referenced or not) in the process of researching your work.
What is a type of reference?
There are four types of references. References from past employers carry the most weight. Employment references include past employers, co-workers, subordinates, or clients. They can speak about your specific employment experience.
What type of reference is a $2?
Absolute references An absolute reference is designated in a formula by the addition of a dollar sign ($) before the column and row. If it precedes the column or row (but not both), it’s known as a mixed reference. You will use the relative (A2) and absolute ($A$2) formats in most formulas.
What are the three types of referencing?
Depending on the way in which they record sources, scholarly reference styles can be divided into three main categories: documentary notes styles, parenthetical (or author-date) styles, and numbered styles. Within each category there are several, slightly different reference styles.
Who do you put for references?
5 References That Should Be on Your List to Land the JobFormer Employer. A previous employer can provide the best insight into your work ethic. Colleague. Someone you worked alongside at a previous job, even if they weren’t your boss, can be an excellent reference. Teacher. Advisor. Supervisor.
What if I have no references?
Call the company where your reference used to work and ask if they have new contact details. Some companies won’t give out home phone numbers. But you could ask them to call and ask your reference to get in touch with you. You could also try to find your reference on social media networks.
Do employers call all three references?
According to Johnson, hiring managers will typically ask for three professional references, and the references you provide should each offer unique value to the employer. When employers speak with these references, they will be checking the claims in your resume and interview.
Can I fake references?
Fake references are illegal – if you’re caught. Directly lying is incredibly unethical, and if caught, you could be fired or face legal trouble. Companies rarely sue for lying, but the people you named on your reference list have every right to.
Is calling references a good sign?
Remember this: When a hiring company makes a call to your references, it’s almost always a good sign—so you can breathe easy. A reference check typically means a hiring manager is near-ready to extend an offer to a candidate, and they want one final confirmation that you are the right fit for their team, Foss says.
What questions do references get asked?
Here are some of the questions that may be asked during a reference check:When did (name) work for your company? Could you confirm starting and ending employment dates? What was her/his position? Could I briefly review (name’s) resume? Why did (name) leave the company?What was her/his starting and ending salary?
How do you introduce yourself in a reference check?
When you first connect with a reference, take a moment to introduce yourself, explain the purpose of your call, and provide an overview of what the reference can expect from your questions. You should also provide a time estimate for the conversation and a summary of the applicant’s desired position.
What questions can you not ask references?
Four Reference Questions You Can’t AskPersonal information not pertinent to the job – Any questions involving an applicant’s age, Health and disability-related questions – A reference should never be asked if a candidate has. Credit history – Credit history reports are only legally available when necessitated by the job.

Why social media should face the same public-interest criteria as journalism
Facebook, a platform created by undergraduates in a Harvard dorm room, has transformed the ways millions of people consume news, understand the world, and participate in the political process. Despite taking on many of journalism’s traditional roles, Facebook and other platforms, such as Twitter and Google, have presented themselves as tech companies—and therefore not subject to the same regulations and ethical codes as conventional media organizations. In contrast to tech companies’ boasts of disruptive innovation, Philip M. Napoli offers a timely and persuasive case for seeing social media as news media, with a fundamental obligation to serve the public interest. Social Media and the Public Interest explores how and why social-media platforms became so central to news consumption and distribution as they met many of the challenges of finding information—and audiences—online. Napoli illustrates the implications of a system in which coders and engineers drive out journalists and editors as the gatekeepers who determine media content. He argues that a social-media-driven news ecosystem represents a case of market failure in what he calls the algorithmic marketplace of ideas. To respond, we need to rethink fundamental elements of media governance based on a revitalized concept of the public interest. A compelling examination of the intersection of social media and journalism, Social Media and the Public Interest offers valuable insights for the democratic governance of today’s most influential shapers of news.
Philip M. Napoli is the James R. Shepley Professor of Public Policy in the Sanford School of Public Policy at Duke University, where he is also a faculty affiliate with the DeWitt Wallace Center for Media and Democracy. His previous books include Audience Economics: Media Institutions and the Audience Marketplace (2003) and Audience Evolution: New Technologies and the Transformation of Media Audiences (2010), both from Columbia University Press.
"While recent episodes have raised questions about algorithmic manipulation and discrimination, what remained missing was a truly comprehensive account, one that not only synthesizes the state of affairs but also offers a conceptual framework for interpreting these developments in light of public policy, news values and ethics, and the future of the public sphere. This book bridges that gap."

text: The phenomenon of ‘unknown’ infant deaths addressed in this article was first explored in the course of research on fatalities arising from political violence during the Irish revolution of 1916–1921. Our data are derived from the General Register of Death Indices (G.R.D.I.), held in the General Register Office, Dublin, which are organised alphabetically, and which form an official record of deaths registered either by relatives of the deceased or by medical personnel. When infant ‘unknown’ fatalities were extracted to form a discrete database they showed a curious gender disparity. There were 100 male infant fatalities recorded for every seventy-eight females in the thirty-two counties over the five-year period. On extending the study to 1932, the same ratio was prevalent in the overall dataset of 895 ‘unknown infants’ drawn from the G.R.D.I. (a dataset which excludes the six counties of Northern Ireland for the period from1922). Initial research into the gender imbalance opened out wider questions concerning social mores regarding illegitimacy, and the extent of medical and lay knowledge of how newborn infants might be brought to death.

Iran is fighting for the safety of the export of steel
US sanctions have hurt the economy of Iran. Also contributed import restrictions of some countries. Because of this, the difficulties began with the Iranian export of steel products. This was stated by the head of the Iranian steel producers ' Association (ISPA). However, the country is not going to give up. The Central Bank, Customs service, steel companies will combine their efforts. This may allow to continue the external delivery.
The output slab for 8 mesyatseslovs 7.98 million tons. Over the same period last year the figure was 11% less. The production of billets and blooms amounted to 9.25 million tons. He also grew compared to last year. The increase amounted to 23%. Finished steel was produced 14.23 million tonnes. It is also more than it was in 2017. The difference is 10%. However, for the current year decreased exports. For eight months he was 5.37 million tons. This is 8% less than last year.
Projected exports by the end of 2018 will be 7.8 million tons. Companies can carry out external supply not exceeding 10 million tons. This refers to steel products per year. Next year is expected to increase production capacity of steel. They should reach the target of 25 million tons per year. However, domestic consumption will reach 16 million tons. It turns out that local businesses still need export. They need to send up to a third of its products. Another option is to reduce output.
Khouzestan Steel Company is the largest steel producer in Iran. The company intends to take certain measures. They will be aimed at preserving their positions in foreign markets. The company will make a number of changes in their work.

The legendary striker, who has been working for Sky Sports this season, returns to the BBC after covering the Brazil World Cup in 2014 with the broadcasters.
Henry's expertise will be called upon having won the Euros with France in 2000 - two years after winning the World Cup on home soil.
For his temporary stint with the BBC, Henry will work alongside their Match of the Day stalwarts Gary Lineker and Alan Shearer.
Henry said: "I really enjoyed the World Cup in Brazil and it was a completely different experience as a pundit rather than a player. I am enjoying my broadcasting work and look forward to being part of the BBC's team, covering some of the great matches featuring Europe's best players.
"It is a tournament that is very close to my heart, having won it 15 years ago, and the fact it is being held in France will make it an extra special experience."
BBC have announced that they will be showing 26 games live and exclusive throughout next summer's competition.
They will show England's Group B Battle of Britain match with Wales, which could prove to be decisive for either side's qualification hopes.
England's clashes with Slovakia and Russia will be shown on ITV.

Workshop: DOING WHAT COMES NATURALLY: NATURE’S CLUES TO EFFECTIVE INTERPRETATION
What more could one ask? The student plays accurately, the rhythm is steady, fingerings and dynamics are observed, and most of the articulations are present. That’s a good student! Yet something is missing in the flow of the sound, the shape of the line, and in the expression. In this session we examine ways in which natural laws of gravity, inertia, heartbeat, and tension/relaxation can influence student performances in a most positive way.
Special thanks to Marvin Blickenstaff and Dunkley’s Music for providing this event for free to IMTA members and their colleagues.
