Five Stages of Grief
- Denial and Isolation.
At first, we tend to deny the loss has taken place, and may withdraw from our usual social contacts. This stage may last a few moments, or longer.
The grieving person may then be furious at the person who inflicted the hurt (even if she's dead), or at the world, for letting it happen. He may be angry with himself for letting the event take place, even if, realistically, nothing could have stopped it.
Now the grieving person may make bargains with God, asking, "If I do this, will you take away the loss?"
The person feels numb, although anger and sadness may remain underneath.
This is when the anger, sadness and mourning have tapered off. The person simply accepts the reality of the loss.
Last week I finally wrote on Dunbar Village on this blog even though I had read about it in the blotter in an online newspaper. almost a month ago while I was in the middle of a minor dust up with a certain network over a certain show. Needless to say reading the sketchy details at the time depressed me and made me very sad, luckily I was in the middle of what I thought at the time was the battle of my life, fighting with a morally reprehensible television network over their continued pattern of offering morally repugnant programming. So I was able to escape the horror of Dunbar Village temporarily. Sure I read about it at Mirror on America I might have even left a comment about it, but as a woman, I just couldn't wrap my head around it until a little over a week ago.
A week ago, I was pointing out the double standard in the African American community when Black girls and Black women are sexually assaulted by Black males. I talked about the fact that many in the African American community don't believe in statutory rape, or any kind of rape where the victim is not scratching and clawing out the eyes of their attacker. That is why when a 13 or 14 year old girl is allegedly taped with a R&B artist, a grown man, and her tape is distributed on the street corners of America, we turn our heads and go out and buy his latest album. Or why when a girl is violated by 5 to 6 African American boys while she is passed out drunk on the bed, folks blame her for having gone to the hotel room in the first place and ignore the fact that the little cretins videotaped their bad acts. Folks blame the teen girls for being fast and don't count what happened to her as a crime because the absence of "NO" automatically means "YES" even if the state says "HELL NO!" on the books.
That is why when a 15 year old girl becomes the entertainment for a group of 17 and 18 year old boys by letting them videotape her performing sex acts on them, a candidate for PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES comes to the aid of the boys, when long arm of the law catches them in a choke hold. That is why a candidate for PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES can try to recast the statutory rape of a 15 year old girl as a scene out of Romeo and Juliet and her violators as Steven Urkle. We can debate the length of sentences, but please let's not throw the statutory rape statutes under the bus in this age where everybody wants to be Larry Flint and a porn producer, teen girls are more vulnerable than ever except this time, there will be video tapes and photos instead of just bad memories that haunt them the rest of their lives.
I wish someone would tap that PRESIDENTIAL CANDIDATE on the shoulder and ask him to reconsider and try to figure out just what his definition of "rape" is because he clearly can't grasp the fact that a 15 year old in many states can't have "consensual sex" so he really needs to stop using that term in his defense of a convicted child molester. They might also ask him if a drunk passed out 17 year old can consent or a female inmate can consent to sex with a prison guard.... in many states none of these women can "consent" and you know that MR. Harvard Law Graduate! This is what happens when you try to out-Sharpton Al Sharpton. Moral Inconsistency!
In the midst of being outraged over the lack of outrage over R. Kelly and Genarlow Wilson, one of my frequent readers and commentators mentioned Dunbar Village. By then I had apparently worked my way through stage ONE and had move on to stage TWO ( Read 'Dunbar Village: RAZE IT TO THE GROUND AND SALT THE EARTH SO THAT NOTHING WILL GROW THERE!). I later found out that lots of Black female bloggers hadn't been able to write about it either until discussions broke out weeks after it was first reported.
Denying the feelings, and failing to work through the five stages of grief, is harder on the body and mind than going through them. When people suggest "looking on the bright side," or other ways of cutting off difficult feelings, the grieving person may feel pressured to hide or deny these emotions. Then it will take longer for healing to take place.(SOURCE)
So yeah, I am in stage TWO, but throughout history people in stage TWO have gotten a whole lot of things accomplished. The memory of past crimes and atrocities committed against innocents or the over matched has been the rallying cry for some of the most historic battles in history. Stage TWO is just fine with me. I can be ticked off and still accomplish my goals. Just like the folks in Montgomery were ticked off enough to walk instead of riding the bus, or Linda Brown's parents were ticked off to risk their lives and join a little lawsuit some folks were filing, or the folks were ticked off about Emmett Till. You can get a lot accomplished in the process of being TICKED OFF!
Lots of folk are apparently in stage TWO. Not just over Dunbar Village, but over Newark, and Chancey Bailey, Stepha Henry, and Sakia Gunn( This was in Newark too. The Accompanying article lists another horrific crime committed against an 11 year old girl by 19 men and boys! Jesus! Just. Just. Jesus!). Folks are ticked off over Marcie Crane, Kireasha Pam Linkhome, Shirley Geanes, Latoya Natasha Thomas, Dymashal Lashon Cullins, Tyesha Patrice bell, Daphne Philisia Jones, Tamika Antoinette Huston, and all the other Black women that go missing while MSNBC focuses on what Paris Hilton is wearing when she goes to jail.
Now some of you have already made it to step FIVE. Knock yourselves out. You continue to have policy arguments about critical race theory, gender politics, and the socio economic political ramifications of what is happening around us, and we'll keep hanging out around stage TWO. I have the feeling we are going to be there a while because right when we get ready to get to stage THREE, something else will happen.
So maybe it isn't that the LEAGUE OF THE IMMORALLY INDIFFERENT does not care or is ineffective, inept, inconsistent, and irreparable harmed by their silence on the Dunbar Village gang rape. Maybe they are just hanging out at stage ONE hoping we'll move quickly to stage FIVE. Not happening! Unfortunately for them, they have appointed themselves as "leaders" and accept millions in membership dues and corporate donations with an understanding that they will do the things that they said they would do. It doesn't help that they are making statements on behalf dogs while remaining silent about the plight of Black women and girls.
You see, even though I am on STEP TWO and so are a lot of folks are right now, we still get up and go to work. What does this have to do with the League of the Immorally Indifferent?
Well even though they are apparently on STAGE ONE, their jobs require that the act ANYWAY while working themselves through. So they can either pull their heads out of the sand, or we will assist them in doing so. Because I have the feeling that folks at STAGE TWO are going to be there a while and the longer the "leaders" stay at STAGE ONE, the longer we'll be at STAGE TWO and the more pure unadulterated hell they can expect because the crowd gathering at stage TWO gets larger EVERY DAY! If we have to drag the leaders chilling out at stage ONE to stage TWO, so be it! Because their days of denial are over!
PPS. I know this is the argument for why we have to find new leadership including Black women leaders. They are out there and folks are working on it. Maybe this immoral indifference is part of the Universe's plan. Only our "leaders" being silent over such horrific crimes could force us out of stage ONE!

In my last three blogs, I discussed the basics of heat-loss and cooling load calculations. The unfortunate truth about these calculations is that fast methods aren’t particularly accurate, and accurate methods require making measurements, checking specifications, and entering data into a computer program — in other words, a significant investment of time.
So how should builders go about making these calculations? There are several ways:
- You can use a rule of thumb (along with experience) to estimate your equipment needs.
- You can ask your HVAC contractor to make the calculations. (I don’t recommend this method.)
- You can make the calculations yourself using a simple spreadsheet or an online calculator (like this one from the Build It Solar website).
- You can buy Manual J software and learn to use it.
- You can hire a consultant (usually an energy rater or an engineer) to perform the calculations for you.
Why do we need to perform these calculations?
There are at least two reasons why we need to perform load calculations: to size heating and cooling equipment (ideally, using ACCA Manual S), and to design heating and cooling distribution systems (using ACCA Manual D). Neither Manual S nor Manual D can be used unless Manual J calculations are performed first.
These are valid reasons, so a room-by-room Manual J load calculation makes a lot of sense. If you perform such a calculation, you may save money on your heating and cooling equipment (because it is less likely to be oversized), and there will be a lower chance that the homeowners will have comfort complaints arising from a poorly designed heat-distribution system.
In most areas of the country, a room-by-room Manual J load calculation is required by code. If you don’t have the software yourself, you’ll have to hire an energy rater or…

We enjoyed our stay at Dean Steep. The accommodation was well equipped and comfortable. The owners were very helpful and the views across the valley was pleasant. There were plenty of places to visit nearby and Dean Steep was centrally placed being just outside and above Lynton for walking and cycling in the area. The site was small and very quiet. Unfortunately we could not book the weather during our stay. We would return again.
A very relaxing holiday,in beautiful surroundings.The bungalow was very comfortable,with everything we needed. Theresa and Richard were very knowlegable of the local area,very helpful and very friendly.
The views of surrounding countryside are excellent and a super location to tour Exmoor
Our stay here was great and very comfy the owners could not enough for you if you ask them for any info they went found out for five star service for very nice people
Dean steep was in a lovely spot. The views were great. The accomodation was clean and tidy. The new owners are nice.
Fantastic location - so glad we found this little gem. Huge field for the dogs to run in, comfortable bungalow and fantastic time was had - just a shame you can't pre-book good weather!!!
Enjoyed our stay
A lovely place to stay if you need a lot of peace and quiet mixed in with a lot of walking and great views.
Not a place to stay if you have no transport though.
Lovely place, the views outstanding. Bit too far out from anything, having to pay for electric even though it was a very expensive stay. The man who owns it was very helpful
Richard and Teresa were great hosts and on hand if needed, but you probably wont need them. On arrival we found a selection of tea and coffee in the cottage as well as a few home made cakes. There are fantastic views across Exmoor from the picture window of the cottage we stayed in and it's a great place to explore from, on foot or by car. Its a lovely, quiet relaxing site.
Clean and comfortable accommodation in beautiful and convenient location.
The best self catering accommodation we have ever stayed in. Spotlessly clean throughout. Comfortable beds. Very well equipped. Helpful and pleasant owners where nothing is too much trouble. Pretty gardens with picnic tables and on site washing machines, iron etc, toys for children, books and dvds to borrow, lots of maps and places to visit. 2 large fields for dog walking. Excellent holiday.
Fantastic area. Accommodation was clean and well equipped. Owners were very friendly and helpful. Only downside was very slow wifi. We were able to walk to Lynton from the site, a good long walk but very enjoyable with lovely views of the sea. Would recommend.
Staff very helpful and friendly but too many dogs around. If not a dog lover best to avoid this one.

In particular, Turkey’s President will meet with Putin on May 3, and with Trump - on May 16 or 17.
Foreign Minister of Turkey Mevlüt Çavuşoğlu said Erdogan and Trump will hold a meeting on the eve of the NATO summit in Brussels on May 25.
Earlier it was reported how Erdogan's referendum will transform Turkey. The desire for security and stability in the complicated region in turbulent times won at the referendum with a small margin.
The arguments of the President Recep Tayyip Erdogan and his government that the new super centralized presidential system will effectively deal with external and internal enemies, respond to regional challenges and put an end to decades of social instability and periodic military coups, promote economic development and generally allow Turkey to become a leading state region, were convincing enough for more than 21 million Turks, or 51.4% of those who voted.

Spanish oil major Repsol frees up cash for green investment
Repsol said the flow of cash will help its strategic goal of investing 35% of its capital expenditure, or 5.5 billion euros, in low carbon projects in the 2021-2025 period.
Spain’s Repsol has agreed to sell a 25% stake in its upstream oil and gas unit to US energy and infrastructure investor EIG for $4.8 billion to help fund its clean energy transition. The sale is the biggest among major oil companies since BP agreed to offload its petrochemicals business to INEOS for $5 billion in 2020.
The Repsol sale, however, is different, as it allows Repsol to maintain control over the assets, which will continue to operate within its integrated structure. Repsol’s upstream unit is expected to produce 570,000 boe/d in 2022 and holds proven and probable reserves of 2.3 billion boe, of which nearly 70% is gas. Repsol said the unit would continue to focus growth on key regional hubs, while maintaining a diversified portfolio of exploration and production assets in OECD countries.
The deal helps free up cash to facilitate the company’s green investments at a time of high oil prices and upstream valuations – it values Repsol’s upstream unit at $19 billion, well above current market levels and most analysts’ estimates. Repsol said the flow of cash will help its strategic goal of investing 35% of its capital expenditure, or 5.5 billion euros, in low carbon projects in the 2021-2025 period. The company also raised money in June through the sale of a 25% stake of its renewables’ unit to Credit Agricole Assurances and Energy Infrastructure Partners for 905 million euros. Repsol hopes its low carbon businesses will represent 45% of its group capital employed by 2030, including 20 GW of renewables and 1.9 GW of green hydrogen capacity.
Repsol CEO Josu Jon Imaz said: “This pioneering agreement allows us to maintain the strategic direction of the upstream unit and, at the same time, to boost the transformation of the company and its multi-energy profile to achieve zero net emissions by 2050.”
More to come
Other European majors are also divesting from oil and gas given their net zero commitments for scope 3 emissions. This is likely to result in huge structural change among these companies by 2050 – with 60% to 70% less oil and gas production and limited refining, according to Wood Mackenzie – offset by massive expansion in renewables, low carbon fuels and EV charging. However, their strategies diverge, mainly in terms of the pace and nature of the transition away from oil and gas.
Repsol’s oil and gas output has been mostly in decline since hitting 715,000 boe/d in 2018, reaching 540,000 boe/d in Q2, down 4% y-o-y. BP has the most ambitious planned cuts, with a target of 40% reduction in oil and gas output by 2030, while at the same time quickly expanding into low-carbon opportunities. TotalEnergies has a dual growth strategy increasing oil and gas production this decade while investing heavily in new energy at the same time. Wood Mac says that companies that “capitalise on their competitive advantages while maintaining sufficient flexibility to change as the energy transition progresses will be the most successful.”
Other sales have been forthcoming, but not on the scale of Repsol’s recent divestment. BP recently sold its 50% interest in the BP-Husky 160kb/d Toledo Refinery in Ohio to Cenovus Energy for $300 million but will maintain supply through a multi-year product supply agreement. And in June 2022, BP signed an agreement to sell its interest in the high emissions Sunrise oil sands project in Alberta, Canada, to JV partner Cenovus, while at the same time agreeing to acquire Cenovus’s interest in the Bay du Nord project offshore Newfoundland and Labrador.
BP has also sold its Algerian upstream business to Eni, comprising stakes in the In Amenas and In Salah gas ventures in the south of the country. The move will boost the Italian major’s Algerian output to over 120,000 boe/d in 2023 at a time when Italy is desperately seeking alternatives to Russian oil and gas supply.
On the purchase side, BP is buying EDF Energy Services, including its full retail operating capabilities – expanding its presence in the US commercial and industrial retail power and gas business. The move, alongside heavy investment in large US wind and solar schemes, will enhance BP’s ability to deliver green and conventional energy solutions and services directly to large US end-users. With a boost from its purchase of BHP’s North American shale gas assets a few years ago, BP remains the largest marketer of natural gas in North America and is also a major power provider.
Other mature upstream assets on the block include Shell and Exxon’s shares in Dutch gas producer, NAM, which is responsible for most of the Netherlands remaining gas production. TotalEnergies also has some upstream assets on offer, including its Sarang stake in Iraqi Kurdistan. However, even if these big publicly-owned oil and gas producers fully divest upstream assets to meet their emissions commitments, the emissions will continue if new operators maintain production – leaving the world little better off.

How to Identify and Resolve Common Issues ?
We offer a diverse range of insights on identifying and resolving common problems in sports. Our sources encompass academic articles, blog posts, and personal essays shared by seasoned athletes. :
As for accuracy, these rifles were not bad, and occasionally you could find one that shot very well. A gun-writing friend of mine once rounded up three . 30/06 Model 7600s (the successor to the 760 and essentially the same rifle) and a bunch of varied ammo, and shot groups with the three.
According to Paul, the Remington Model 760 GameMaster was the most popular pump-action rifle of all time. His father purchased this . 35-caliber M760A in 1958.
The main differences were cosmetic, as the Model 7600 retained the Model 760`s straight comb buttstock and added fine-line press checkering in a fleur-de-lis pattern. The Model 760 was offered in .
The Remington Model 7600 is a series of pump-action centerfire rifles made by Remington Arms. The Model 7600 is a progression from the original Model 760 pump-action rifle which Remington produced from 1952 to 1981. Production of the Model Six began in 1981 and was discontinued in 1987.
THE MODEL 700® CDL SF
Bearing the most popular bolt-action rifle in history. Top choice of military and law enforcement officers, the Model 700 is unequalled in precision. Whether defending freedom or pursuing big game, its out-of-the-box accuracy is unmatched.
THE MODEL 870
America`s most-trusted pump shotgun is also the smoothest. And with more than 11,000,000 sold since its introduction in 1950, it`s become the best-selling shotgun of all time.
From the right company, such as Remington, pump action rifles are very accurate, and with a scope can be even more so. Pumps are known to be reliable, rarely to never jamming, and when they do, it`s usually traced to the cartridge.
A pump-action rifle is a rifle where the forend can be moved forward and backward in order to eject a spent round of ammunition and to chamber a new one.
The Henry Pump Octagon, available in calibers . 22LR or . 22 Magnum, is one gun that is built for fun. It also sports a grooved receiver for mounting a scope, and Marbles semi-buckhorn fully adjustable rear sights with standard 3/8″ dovetail slots enabling you to change sights if you choose to do so.
There are only two pump action rifles made in high power calibers. They are the Remington Model 7600 and the Browning BPR.
The CDL, or Classic Deluxe.
Pump rifles are not popular because a pump action excels at quick shots rather than precise ones. Moving the forend to reload throws off the shooting position. This is fine for shotguns, but kind of defeats the point of a rifle.
The Crosman ® Pumpmaster 760 Air Rifle has been a favorite for four decades! This reliable rifle can double as a BB repeater or as a single shot pellet gun. It features steel barrel material, packs a cross bolt safely, and shoots at velocities up to 600 fps.
The AK-47 is the most popular rifle in the world. The reason? It`s cheap, reliable, easy to maintain, and reasonably accurate in mid-range combat conditions. The Century Arms RAS47 offers all that and way more.
308 comprised total production of only 142 with a Mannlicher-style stock. But the rarest Original Model 600 was and remains the . 223.
The Benelli M4 is the proven king of combat shotguns. This gas-operated, semi-auto shotgun was evaluated by the Marine Corps in 1999 and joined the ranks shortly after. The fast-firing design makes follow-up shots quick and effective, making it a terrifyingly effective close-quarter`s weapon.
Remington is a trusted brand when it comes to beauty tools, and their hair straighteners don`t disappoint. Considering their incredible durability and reasonable price, Remington flat irons are something you should invest in if you`re always straightening your hair.
The Remington brand name and Lonoke, AR ammunition factory was bought by Vista Outdoor, which uses it to market and manufacturer several types of ammunition. After the breakup, two companies now use the Remington name, Remington Ammunition and Remington Arms, LLC.
The M24 Sniper Weapon System (SWS) or M24 is the military and police version of the Remington Model 700 rifle, M24 being the model name assigned by the United States Army after adoption as their standard sniper rifle in 1988.
As pointed out by Hypex, the shotgun is capable of dishing out a maximum of 250 damage in a single shot. That`s over double players` base health of 100, and even with a full shield bar bumping that up to 200, the Havoc Pump Shotgun is more than capable of clearing that in one shot.
Pump-action shotguns are so popular because they can eat every load a shotgun can shoot and do so reliably. This includes less-lethal loads, breaching loads, birdshot, buckshot, slugs, and even Dragon`s breath flame-throwing rounds.
A typical pump-action shotgun costs between $229 and $799, depending on the manufacturer, model, features, and various other factors.
The Remington Model 572 Fieldmaster is a slide action, manually-operated . 22 caliber (rimfire) rifle manufactured by Remington Arms Company.
Shotguns come in a wide variety of calibers and gauges ranging from 5.5 mm (. 22 inch) to up to 5 cm (2.0 in), though the 12-gauge (18.53 mm or 0.729 in) and 20-gauge (15.63 mm or 0.615 in) bores are by far the most common.

Volkswagen AG on March 12 reported that operating profit before special items fell 0.3% in the fourth quarter of 2018 from the same period a year earlier.
The German carmaker said for the three months to Dec. 31, 2018, operating profit before special items dipped slightly to €3.80 billion from €3.81 billion in the year-ago period, but beat the S&P Global Market Intelligence consensus estimate of four analysts for EBIT of €3.61 billion.
After special items, operating profit fell 4.2% to €3.05 billion from €3.18 billion in the fourth quarter of 2017. Revenue increased 3% to €61.27 billion compared with €59.49 billion in the year-ago period. Vehicle deliveries to customers fell 7.9% in the fourth quarter to 2.70 million from 2.94 million the year prior, the company said.
In lunchtime trading in Frankfurt, Volkswagen shares were down 1.36% at €144.56.
As reported in its preliminary full-year 2018 earnings released Feb. 22, Volkswagen confirmed that basic earnings per ordinary share for the 12 months to Dec. 31, 2018, rose to €23.57 from €22.28 in 2017. Operating result before special items increased 0.4% to €17.10 billion from €17.04 billion but fell just short of the Market Intelligence consensus estimate for EBIT of €17.12 billion.
The company also confirmed that it expects to increase sales revenue by 5% in 2019 and report an operating return on sales of 6.5% to 7.5%.
Volkswagen announced separately on March 12 that it expects 22 million vehicles to be built on the group's electric car platforms by 2028 instead of the 15 million previously forecast. It has said it will make the platform available to other manufacturers, which will help boost profitability by spreading development costs over higher sales volumes.
Volkswagen CEO Herbert Diess said in a press conference broadcast online following the results' publication that 2018 had been a particularly difficult year with the introduction of the new exhaust emissions testing standard WLTP that required manufacturers to re-certify all their cars and make some modifications to their product ranges.
Diess said electrification was the only means by which automakers could meet forthcoming EU targets for CO2 emissions reductions. The executive called on policymakers to facilitate the creation of the necessary public infrastructure for this.
The CEO also said the company eventually aimed to have a 5% share in the North American market but had not set a deadline by when it hoped to achieve this. The company's performance in Brazil was "back on track" after a "dramatic restructuring" of the business there, Diess said.
Volkswagen Group is seeking to open a manufacturing plant in Eastern Europe that would build models from across the group's passenger car brands, which include Audi, Skoda and SEAT, as well as luxury Porsche and Bentley brands.

Gamecocks Compete at Indiana State Pre-National Invitational|
Oct. 16, 2011
TERRE HAUTE, Ind. -- The South Carolina cross country team ran in its last regular season meet on Sunday in the Indiana State Pre-National Invitational.
Carolina finished the day in 37th after a grueling 6K race on the LaVern Gibson Championship Course at the Wabash Valley Family Sports Center, where the 2011 NCAA Cross Country Championships will be held on Nov. 21. The Gamecocks saved their toughest meet for last as they competed against a field that included four nationally ranked and 29 regionally ranked squads.
South Carolina was without three of its top seven runners on Sunday, as senior Beatrice Biwott and sophomores Scola Jepngetich and Liz Locke all missed the race due to either injury or illness. Senior Sara Hartley led the way for the Gamecocks, finishing 152nd with a time of 23:14. Senior Nicole Rheinlander placed 222nd with a time of 24:02, while junior Emma Borowicz (24:47), freshman Meredith Mill (24:47), junior Jessica Hartman (24:52), sophomore Penny Boswell (24:55) and junior Megan Rother (25:41) also competed for Carolina on Sunday.
Florida State won the meet with 46 points, followed by Georgetown (99), Michigan (158), Colorado (160) and Cornell (161). Risper Kimaiyo (UTEP) claimed first with a time of 20:19.
The Gamecocks now turn their focus to the SEC Championships, which will be held on Oct. 31 in Maryville, Tenn. The women's 6K race is scheduled to begin at 11 a.m. at Lambert Acres Golf Club.


628 parents remain separated from their kids after Trump's zero-tolerance border policy. Biden wants to find them.
President Joe Biden signed several executive orders Tuesday to combat several of the Trump administration’s hardline immigration policies, including introducing a task force Tuesday to reunify families and signing an executive order that reviews the “Migrant Protection Protocols.”
The task force, which will be led by the secretary of Homeland Security, will work to identify the children and parents or guardians who were separated at the border, facilitate and enable reunification of children with their families, and then provide a report to the president on recommendations to ensure that the federal government does not have policies in place that separate families, senior administration officials said.
"I’m not making new law," Biden said in the Oval Office as he signed the executive orders. "I’m eliminating bad policy."
The 'Closers' group:Meet the 7 congresswomen who are steering Biden's immigration agenda in the House
A pardon for 'Dreamers'?:Some activists tout amnesty for undocumented immigrants if Congress doesn't act
There are still at least 628 parents who were separated from their children at the border that are still missing as of December. Former President Donald Trump’s administration had a “zero tolerance” policy that separated children and their parents or guardians at the U.S.-Mexico border.
Alejandro Mayorkas, secretary of the Department of Homeland Security, will chair the task force. Mayorkas was confirmed as DHS Secretary Tuesday, making him the first immigrant and first Latino to lead the department.
The Department of Homeland Security is responsible for counterterrorism, cybersecurity, border security, enforcement of the United States' immigration laws and more.
The task force, which will be comprised of government officials such the secretaries of State and Health and Human Services, will also consult and have input from individuals impacted by the policies.
“The biggest challenge faced by the task force is continuing to identify the children and families that continue to be separated and then making recommendations to finally unite them,” senior officials said.
Biden also signed an executive order that will review the Migrant Protection Protocols, or MPP.
The program forced migrants seeking asylum to wait in Mexican border cities while waiting to plead their case before a judge. While Biden’s administration previously halted the program, part of the review from the executive order will be to determine a process for those with active cases to pursue their cases and not “simply languish in Mexico while they await a decision or the opportunity to make their case,” senior administration officials said.
The executive orders were previously scheduled to be introduced and signed last Friday. However, the delay in confirming Mayorkas as secretary of Homeland Security caused the executive orders to be pushed back.
Biden also signed executive orders that will create a framework to address the underlying causes of migration to the United States’ southern border from mostly Central American countries, like Guatemala, Honduras and El Salvador, and work with foreign governments as well as international organizations to create opportunities to process migrants seeking asylum in that region.
In addition, Biden signed an executive order that reestablishes an Obama-era task force called the Task Force on New Americans to help integrate immigrants into American communities. The order will also call on government agencies to conduct a review of regulations and policies that “set up barriers to our legal immigration system,” according to the White House.
More:Asylum seekers at US-Mexico border see hope in Biden administration immigration changes
These are the latest executive orders Biden has signed in his first several weeks in office.
Biden during his first days in office reversed Trump’s travel ban from several Muslim-majority countries and stopped construction on the border wall on the U.S.-Mexico border. He has also sent an immigration bill to Congress that outlines an eight-year pathway to citizenship for migrants living in the United States without legal status.
Biden’s actions were praised by several lawmakers, including Sen. Bob Menendez, who will be leading Biden’s immigration legislation in the Senate.
“Intentionally inflicting that kind of unspeakable trauma on parents and children is completely unforgivable,” Menendez said in a statement. “While we will never be able to erase the atrocities committed against families by the Trump administration, we have a responsibility to do everything we can to reunify the families that were ripped apart, provide victims with the legal support and trauma-informed health care they need, and hold perpetrators accountable.
Congressional Hispanic Caucus Chairman Raul Ruiz told USA TODAY that Biden’s policies on immigration are “night and day” compared to the Trump Administrations, and that he looks “forward to working with the task force to briefings and also to help the families who have been injured to put them on the path of healing.”
Senior White House officials on Monday said they could not give a timeline as to when there will be a solution for migrants who are now stuck in Mexico awaiting to see a judge for their asylum case.
Some activists were disappointed in the Biden Administration for not having a timeline to introduce an alternative policy to Trump’s “migrant protection protocol.”
"While we understand the undertaking of reversing the previous administration’s disregard for human rights with its unconstitutional immigration actions, the least that can be done is to set a date for this review of MPP to be done,” immigration attorney and activist Charlene D'Cruz said in a statement. “The men, women, and children at the border – including many ... that are medically vulnerable or members of the LGBTQ community in fear for their safety – have waited long enough without answers from the U.S. government on when they will be given their legally-mandated hearing on their application for asylum.”

Under pressure, Trump re-lowers WH flag for McCain
WASHINGTON (AP) — Bowing to pressure, President Donald Trump on Monday ordered American flags at U.S. buildings lowered to half-staff for Sen. John McCain until his burial Sunday. Trump’s proclamation came just hours after the White House flag had been returned to full staff, drawing complaints from right and left.
Trump, who had traded bitter criticism with McCain since before the election, declared his order “a mark of respect.” At the same time, he said he’d accede to the family’s request he stay away from McCain’s funeral services.
“Despite our differences on policy and politics, I respect Senator John McCain’s service to our country and, in his honor, have signed a proclamation to fly the flag of the United States at half-staff until the day of his interment,” Trump said in a statement.
The statement came two days after McCain died at 81 from brain cancer — and after objections at Trump’s silence from lawmakers and others, including the American Legion, which demanded he do more to honor the Vietnam War hero and six-term senator. Trump initially tweeted condolences to McCain’s family but made no mention then of the Arizona Republican with whom he feuded for years.

ATHENS — Greece and its creditors paused negotiations early Tuesday without reaching an agreement over the country’s bailout review and will continue next week after the International Monetary Fund’s annual spring meetings, according to the Greek Finance Minister.
“Progress has been made on the issues needed in order to have a deal,” Finance Minister Euclid Tsakalotos said. Tsakalotos said the bailout inspectors would return to Athens on April 18, immediately after the IMF spring meetings in Washington, D.C., to continue talks before a meeting of Eurozone finance ministers April 22.
All sides were hoping to draft a preliminary agreement on Greece’s next fiscal belt-tightening measures before the officials leave later Tuesday for the IMF meetings, which run from Friday through Sunday.
“We will conclude to a staff-level agreement shortly before the Eurogroup meeting,” Tsakalotos said. He added that many small issues remained open, so there wasn’t enough time to have a first draft ready by Tuesday.
Creditors are seeking a Greek commitment to budget savings, centered on overhauls of pensions and income taxes, worth about €5.4 billion, or 3% of Greece’s gross domestic product.

But there’s something special about Quinn: She has the ability to access special portals that will enable her to squeeze back into the life she left behind, and this, more than anything she is going through right now, is a constant pressure in her life. When she finally can’t resist the temptation to flee her everyday life anymore, Quinn steps into the portal to see just what would have happened if she hadn’t married her husband or had her son. This other life is more glamorous but also has its drawbacks, as she is confronted with Eugene, the neurotic and dependant radio-star boyfriend whom she left behind and who totally monopolizes her time and attention. But the thing that really excites Quinn about this alternate reality is that, in this world, her mother is still alive.
As the stress and pressure begin to mount for Quinn in her everyday life, she begins to cross over more and more frequently, exploring her other life in intimate detail. Crossing back and forth between her two lives through the portal, Quinn discovers that she can choose to stay in either life but that there are stiff consequences to staying in either. But time is running out, and as Quinn grapples with returning to Eugene and her mother or staying put in a life with a very damaged infant on the way, the choice to flit between worlds might be something that doesn’t rest in her hands alone. In this mystical and heart-wrenching tale of a woman and her two very different lives, Ellen Meister explores the what-ifs of of woman who is struggling with more than she alone can bear.
When I was first approached to participate in this tour, I took a look at the book that was being featured and began to be very excited. Who hasn’t wished they could look into the abyss and discover the secrets of the road not taken? For me, the road probably would have looked a lot like a tragedy, but I can imagine other people, women in particular, might have some feelings of excitement and longing to discover what could have happened had they made different choices. I have to admit I was really rather excited about this book because I felt it would be vicariously thrilling to discover what Quinn found on the other side, and if she would feel a pull to stay there after all the trauma began to come down on her in her everyday life.
Quinn was an excellent character to be able to get invested with. She was very different from most women in fiction because she admitted to herself and those surrounding her that to feel complete, she had to feel needed and essential. This was one of the stumbling blocks she had in her marriage to her husband Lewis. He felt the need to coddle and protect her, and her role in his life was much like the role she played in Eugene’s life all those years ago. When Quinn discovers her portal back into Eugene’s life, this force of being needed was one of the things that drew her in. Of course it wasn’t the only factor because after Quinn learned of her daughter’s birth defect, it seemed that the portal was her escape and her refuge. The choices Quinn had to make regarding her daughter were gut-wrenching to read about and the way Meister explored them was very realistic. She was fraught with the idea of terminating the pregnancy and had to weigh that against raising a child that may or may not survive at all. That alone would have pushed me through the portal, but Quinn was made of very solid stuff and had the ability to manage one crisis after the other with grace and fortitude. One can certainly argue that Quinn’s frequent passage through the portal was her way of escaping and coping, not merely satisfying her curiosity about a life she left behind.
One of the main cruxes of the book was the relationship that Quinn had with her mother. As a mentally ill woman, Nan was torn in her ability to raise her children lovingly and in her ability to deal with the crippling depression that eventually forced her to take her own life. Like a lot of children who survive after a parent’s suicide, Quinn harbored a lot of guilt over Nan’s fate and somehow felt that her mother’s ultimate action was a direct effect of Quinn’s decision to marry Lewis. When she steps through the portal for the first time and discovers that Nan is indeed alive in this world, the stakes go up for Quinn tremendously. How can she go back to a world where her mother doesn’t exist and where she’s going to have to cope with life-altering changes? The problem with this is that by staying in her alternate universe, she would lose her son, essentially doing the same thing to her child that her mother had done to her. I imagine the choices Quinn had to make were more than unnerving and very frightening, and the way that Meister captures Quinn’s uncertainty over these convolutions of her fate were rather thought-provoking.
The reality and science behind these portals were never explained in any detail other than the fact of how they were thought to come into existence, and to me this wasn’t bothersome. The story sort of blended a mix of women’s fiction with a light touch of science fiction, and the effect was a bit mystical. The existence of the portals was something that elevated this story beyond the scope of women’s fiction, though if I was pressed, I would have to stick to that description of the book’s genre. The tension of this pseudo-duel storyline was palpable, and as Quinn made more and more trips over to the other side, I became nervous for her safety and mental stability. In the end, the story leaves a little to the reader’s imagination in regards to what will eventually happen with Quinn and her choice, but overall, the lessons imparted and the conclusion of Quinn’s fate were handled with a lot of sensitivity and what I felt to be courage.
I ended up liking this book a great deal and felt it had some of the hallmarks of the film Sliding Doors. It was emotional and intriguing in a very vivid and unique way, and by creating tension and believability in both story lines, I think that Meister hit a sweet spot with this book. If you’re the sort of person who enjoys something a little more unique and moving in your women’s fiction choices, I would have to say this book would probably be a great fit for you. Its impact and scope really impressed me, and it’s a book that I would definitely recommend.

Here’s an interesting thought:
In order to remember anything, you must imagine it.
Visualize this: a black-with-white-spots bowling ball, spinning on the tip of a pool cue held on the nose of a pink poodle, wearing Elton John garb and glasses, while peddling a stainless steel tricycle.
Do you see it?
Now, recall the inside of your refrigerator.
One is a fabrication while the other is a memory. Yet both are constructed from the same mental processes – imagination. We must imagine memories to remember them. Your first car. Your first house. Your favorite coffee cup. All memories, all recreated as imagined visions.
Now, who’s to say that your memories are not fabricated from nothing — everything you “think” you experienced in the past is just a planted “imagination” — like that pink poodle and its glam antics — they never happened. You only think they did because of memories — which are…

It is that time of year again. The leaves are turning yellow, football season has commenced, and the Pumpkin Spice latte is back on the Starbucks menu. That means trip into the wine cellar, after all, the appeal of any wine is subject to change with the seasons. It’s time to rethink our everyday wine selection for the cooler days and nights.
Cooler weather calls for bolder, more robust reds. I don’t even mind slightly higher levels of alcohol, for warming the toes can be just as important as warming the soul; and the bigger reds are generally more suitable with fall and winter dishes, earthy mushroom sauces, roasted meats and tasty root vegetables.
Spanish wines are increasingly popular for this transitional season. Once perceived as a source of inexpensive wines with an envious price-quality ratio, Spain has become increasingly sought out for the quality of its wines and many are fetching high prices. Savvy wine consumers, once attracted by price are now attracted by the quality level of Spanish wines as well.
Spanish wines are naturally great with the broad spectrum of Spanish traditional cuisines and many of them work well with ultra-modern dishes and cooking techniques inspired by Spanish chefs. But the real revelation is the ability of these wines to match well with a range of cuisines just as the wines of France, California, Italy, and Australia do. Tempranillo-based wines from la Rioja range from lighter, well-aged reservas and gran reservas to the winemaker stars--dark, concentrated wines made from single vineyards or old vines.
Whether they come from the cooler up-river Duero Valley Ribera de Burgos area, or from the much warmer downriver areas in Valladolid province, Ribera del Duero’s tinto fino, or tempranillo-based, wines are the perfect choice for their warm and dusty characteristics. This variety of wines goes well with a wide array of foods, from tapas to the sophisticated modern cuisines. Think of Tempranillo as Pinot Noir in blue jeans—it’s great with just about anything that calls for glass of good red wine, including pizza, pasta, steaks, and game dishes.
As your menu changes to reflect fall flavors, your wine list should, too.
So what Spanish reds work for the fall?

The concept for Neal Brennan’s one-man show admittedly sounds gimmicky. 3 Mics features the comedian working in front of just that — three microphones — which the program’s cover informs us are for “One Liners,” “Emotional Stuff” and “Stand-Up,” respectively. During the course of the 75-minute show, the writer-performer shuffles from one to the other, as if daring us to keep up with what he’s doing. But it somehow works, making the evening considerably more than the sum of its parts. He may need three microphones to do it, but Brennan manages to be wildly funny and deeply moving at the same time.
Best known for co-creating Chappelle’s Show (you may have heard of it) and co-writing the film Half Baked (you’re better off if you haven’t), Brennan has extensive TV directorial credits, including episodes of Inside Amy Schumer, New Girl and The Mindy Project. He clearly knows his comedy stuff, and as a performer he displays a deadpan delivery and perfect timing that enhance his sharp material. Not for nothing is this New York engagement being presented by singer John Legend, which certainly doesn’t hurt the show’s publicity.
The wiry, unprepossessing performer’s stand-up routine deals with typical subjects: guns, aging, race relations, ISIS, relationship issues, sexual positions, etc. But the bits are perfectly calibrated, his subtle vocal inflections often causing the hilarious observations to sneak up on you. And he enlivens them with astute physicality, such as when he personifies testosterone — not a good influence on men, it seems — by miming one-armed push-ups.
Similarly, Brennan’s one-liners, which he seems to be picking at random from several pages full of them, are very funny, if mostly silly and scattershot: “The Little League World Series … or, as pedophiles call it, the World Series.” And my favorite, “The irony of the word ‘Palestine’ is how much like a Jewish last name it sounds.”
But it’s during the times when Brennan shifts to the middle mic, the one for “Emotional Stuff,” that the evening takes on greater resonance. He movingly relates his longtime suffering from depression (he compares it to wearing a “weighted vest”); his years-long dependence on psychopharmaceuticals; his failed romantic relationships; his shame over treating his famous friends better than his non-famous ones; and, most especially, his tortured relationship with his abusive father, who died several years ago.
During these passages, Brennan is analytical, probing and also funny, carefully infusing even the most harrowing moments with tension-relieving jokes. More importantly, the personal revelations add fuel to his stand-up. Getting a glimpse of the inner man behind the comic façade adds an unexpected depth to even the more conventional routines. He begins one bit by saying, “I went to the doctor,” then pauses, and adds in a sly, conspiratorial tone, “You know why.” We do indeed, and the knowledge makes what follows all the funnier.
At the end of the evening, Brennan sends the audience out with one of his silly one-liners. Like every good comedian, he’s smart enough to leave us laughing.

I was planning on buying my first gps- and was looking at that model. A local surveying supply place has it for $249.00 vs must other places at 199.99, but this surveying supply place will down load the topo maps of your choice- so in the long run I'm saving about $50.00 buying it thru them. Does anyone have any pros or cons on this unit?
my vote is for the rhino 120's... ok they eat batteries fairly quick ( about 3 for a full day of hunting...) but they do have radios and you can get maps too... between the party i hunt with we have about 8... pretty neat for coordinating hunts and drives... and saving waypoints to get back to... you can even send waypoints to others... about $200... maps are good... just watch out under the hemlock groves... thick pines and cloudy days make gps updates problematic some times!
I bought an etrex 20-I got it pacific survey- just because they will download what ever maps you want for free. I got the topo maps for the state of oregon for nothing and if I have plans to go some other state all I have to do is go in and say I want the map for that state
I bought one just before the deer season here in Va., and like it. I was using the "little yellow" eTrex, and was quite happy with it, but the additional features of the 20 are nice. Seeing where you are on a map, and if using a topo, seeing the terrain is nice.
I bought a subscription to Birdseye, but if you go below 800 ft on the scape, it gets very blurry. I won't say get it or don't get, but I am somewhat disappointed.
The ability of the 20 to enter names and notes is very nice. "Little yellow" could only go about 8 characters, so names could get creative and hard to remember next year. With the 20, a stand can be named "outrageously productive stand" and in notes, I enter little things like the exact setup of my treestand cables, which direction to face, and such.
Accuracy is on par with the Little yellow, but it's no 62. But, get me to within 30 feet of my stand and I'm good to go.
I got the etrex 20 and am very happy with it for hunting - I got Australia and NZ topo maps on Ebay for about $12 and its got both off road and Street maps on it ! I also have the back tracker for small jobs and less dense areas...
