BETWEEN August 17 and September 9, the Supreme Court collegium (SCC) recommended almost a hundred names – lawyers, judicial officers and one Income Tax Appellate Tribunal (ITAT) member – for elevation to the benches of the various high courts. The move of the SCC to clear so many names in one go was dubbed historical by many.
However, in what could give rise to yet another round of confrontation with the Supreme Court, the Centre has been sitting on almost all names, with the only appointments notified by the Union government were on September 6, when it appointed six additional judges of Karnataka HC as permanent judges of the same HC. Their cases had been cleared by the SCC on August 17.
Incidentally, less than 48 hours after the SCC recommendations were made public, Chief Justice of India NV Ramana, while speaking at an event where Union Law and Justice Minister Kiren Rijiju was also present, had expressed the hope that the Centre would clear all pending cases with the same alacrity with which it processed the nine names for appointment to the Supreme Court.
Sources in the Supreme Court told India Ahead News that the delay was “unwarranted” and “inexplicable”.
“If you go by the figures, out of 1,098 posts of judges in the high courts, 459 are vacant, which means over 40 per cent posts are vacant. The delay by the government is inexplicable and unwarranted. While this isn’t the first time such a thing is happening, one would have expected that in view of the ongoing pandemic, the government would speed up the appointment process so that judicial infrastructure is improved,” said the source, who chose not to be identified.
Among the cases recommended by the SCC on September 1, 2021 and which are yet to be notified are those from Madras HC (four advocates), Kerala HC four advocates), Jharkhand HC (five judicial officers), Calcutta HC (five judicial officers and two advocates), Rajasthan HC (three judicial officers), Gauhati HC (three lawyers and two judicial officers), Chhattisgarh HC (one lawyer and one judicial officer), Kerala HC (four judicial officers), J&K and Ladakh HC (two judicial officers), Madhya Pradesh HC (one advocate), Allahabad HC (13 lawyers) and Punjab and Haryana HC (four advocates).
Earlier, on August 17, the SCC had recommended the names of six judicial officers and one ITAT member for elevation to the bench of Telangana HC.
In the meantime, the Centre has processed the appointment of names that were recommended much later.
The SCC, on September 7, recommended the appointment of two additional judges of Kerala HC and 10 additional judges of Karnataka High Court as permanent judges. Their cases are also pending.
Incidentally, the cases pending with the government include the 13 names reiterated by the Supreme Court collegium, names which had been sent back for reconsideration by the government on some grounds.
On September 1, the SCC had also reiterated its earlier recommendation to appoint nine lawyers and three judicial officers to the benches of various HCs. These include advocates Farzand Ali in Rajasthan HC, advocates Jaytosh Majumdar, Amitesh Banerjee, Raja Basu Chowdhury and Lapita Banerji in Calcutta HC, Rahul Bharti and Moksha Kazmi (Khajuria) in J&K HC and Nagendra R Naik and Aditya Sondhi in Karnataka HC . The three judicial officers whose cases were reiterated by the SCC on September 1 are Om Prakash Tripathi, Umesh Chandra Sharma and Syed Waiz Mian, all from Allahabad HC.
But, if the delay in processing these cases in inexplicable, more perplexing, sources in the Supreme Court say, is the delay by the government in processing the appointment of Jammu & Kashmir lawyer Wasim Sadiq Nargal, whose name was recommended by the Jammu & Kashmir High Court collegium on 24 August 2017 and who has been recommended thrice by the Supreme Court, possibly a historic first in the annals of Indian judicial system.
Nargal’s name, which had been sent back for reconsideration for the second time even though the memorandum of procedure (MoP), which guides appointments in higher judiciary, clearly says that once a name has been reconsidered and reiterated by the SCC, the Centre has no option but to process it, was reiterated for the second time in March this year.
Nothing has been heard yet as to why the Centre is dragging its feet over his appointment even though there is nothing adverse against him.
“His case is pending for over four years while those recommended much later have been cleared. It is strange is all I can say,” said the Supreme Court source cited above.
The source also wondered if the Centre wasn’t processing the names expeditiously because of the caveat included in the minutes by the SCC – that names cleared earlier by the SCC should be processed before names cleared now so that seniority of the new appointees could be ensured.

Bushes' Home Turf Loses Out in Bid to Host Presidential LibraryBreaking News
Former commerce secretary Donald L. Evans, a West Texan himself and chairman of the presidential site-selection committee, delivered the bad news in a letter late last week.
"This was a difficult decision for the committee," Evans wrote to David A. Miller, chairman of the West Texas Coalition, which represented Texas Tech University in Lubbock and Midland College in Midland. "Your team has brought to light many important ideas, and it is our hope that the final selection and site will make you and the institutions you represent proud."
The West Texas Coalition had proposed a contemporary-style or Spanish Renaissance library on 100 acres west of Texas Tech's Health Science Center and, at Midland College, a Laura Welch Bush Center for Early Literacy.
Still in the running as library sites are Southern Methodist University in Dallas (Laura Bush's alma mater), the University of Dallas and Baylor University in Waco. Although SMU has little land available for new building, it is perceived to be the favorite because Laura Bush is a member of the board of trustees.

In the heart of the sprawling Southwest desert, a profound transformation is underway, a relentless force that is poised to step into the limelight. This is no ordinary evolution; it’s the birth of change and innovation that has been steadily gathering momentum.
This crescendo of change is known as the ‘Concrete Piñatas.’ Their enigmatic charm weaves a spell that takes hold of imaginations, casting an enchantment as captivating as it is irresistible. What truly sets this phenomenon apart is the ever-expanding legion that stands united, collectively known as the ‘Con-Cretins,’ or ‘Con-Qets‘ if you’re of the female species.
These individuals are not just followers. They are the architects of a dynamic and creative community—a congregation of kindred spirits bound together by a shared vision: an unwavering commitment to the audacious pursuit of the extraordinary.
To be clear, this is no hasty endeavor. It’s a carefully planned strategic charge. Each member of this crusade plays a vital role, akin to a cog in a meticulously designed machine. Driven by a deep understanding of the music business and its inner workings, it’s a rapidly evolving movement, offering a unique take unlike anything you’ve seen.
Spear heading this anomaly are lead vocalists Francisco Keys and Curándero Sagrado, guided by the masterful production of The Premonist. Together, their talents and creative synergy form the nucleus of a movement that’s pushing the boundaries of artistic expression.
The Premonist utilizes his mastery of hard-hitting, unorthodox soundscapes to envelop your senses, whisking the listener away to an alternate realm. The vibrations become a portal to a world where ancient Sirens of legend seem to beckon, guiding you into the clutches of Francisco Keys & Curándero Sagrado.
“Originally, I went with a concept: it was as if there was a Mexican garage band in the 60s aiming to create unique music using only the instruments available during that era. Those were the initial thoughts, and I built upon them. I was captivated by the sound I was uncovering, and that’s where it all began. Once Curándero and Francisco joined in on vocals, we progressed from there.” – The Premonist
Yet, their musical prowess is but a fraction of the experience. Attending one of their shows is a plunge into a different universe altogether. It’s not merely a concert; it’s a transformative journey to a realm where music transcends mere performance. It’s a place where sound and environment alter fluidly before your very eyes.
In this immersive experience, the lines between reality and art blur into a magnificent tapestry of imagination and emotion. You’re no longer just an observer; you’re an active participant, intricately woven into the fabric of this unfolding narrative.
Whether you’re fervently nodding your head to their genre-bending sounds or enthusiastically smashing piñatas filled with birth control pills – yes, you heard that right – every moment becomes a visceral engagement. It’s a multisensory adventure.
AOR: YOU’RE KNOWN FOR BRINGING A LOT OF LIVE ELEMENTS TO YOUR SHOWS.
“It’s all live. The Premonist plays his MPC through my loop machine as I edit what he’s doing in real-time. I add some of my loop stuff, which is the electronic side you hear. Then, there’s a live guitar along with all the other local live elements. It’s all live. Many of the clubs we’ve recently played at had to purchase additional hardware because they didn’t know how to accommodate a band. They assumed, ‘Oh, they’re just bringing a DJ.’ No. We’re a band. It’s all live. – All Hail Pan”
AOR: YOU HAVE A VERY DISTINGUISING SOUND. WHAT GENERE DO YOU CONSIDER YOURSELF? DO YOU EVEN PUT YOURSELF INTO A GENRE?
“We’re a collective. We’re all inclusive., It’s for everybody. You can’t pinpoint our genre because you’ve never seen it before. We’ve already tried the traditional hip hop thing , we got bored with it. We we’re like, lets do something else.” – Curándero Sagrado
“I wouldn’t put us in a specific box. But people will probably say were like on some jugglo nonsense of some hip-hop ,this and that. And that ain’t no disrespect to no one. It just comes down to being dope and original. We’re not into being pigeon holed into one genre. We just want this to be just dope. If you think this is dope – whether you’re a rocker, trasher, skater, hip-hop head, whatever the hell you are – if you fuck with our shit? Hell yeah, come along with us and jump on this fucking wave.” – Franciso Key
The artistry of the Concrete Piñatas and their Concretions transcends the boundaries of music and live performances. Delve into their world through the “Concrete Corner‘ web-series, and you’ll witness the ‘Con-Cretins‘ in their wild, unfiltered glory. As they tornado through their home state of Arizona, their adventures unfold in unpredictable and hilarious ways, occasionally even flirting with danger. Anything to achieve their artistic vision.
The outcome of these escapades is a highly addictive, no-frills show filled with crazy antics, uproarious stories, and music videos. What’s truly remarkable is that the production of this web-series is produced soley by the ‘Con-Cretins‘ themselves, a testament to the strength and versatility of this dynamic collective.
United by their passion, the Concrete Piñatas and their ‘Con-Cretins’ ignite a spark within us all. They inspire us to explore the unknown, find beauty in the unexpected, and wholeheartedly embrace the wonderful world of awkwardness.
As they continue to gain momentum, we can only anticipate that things will become even more fascinating as their influence expands.
So, get ready, because the Concrete Piñatas are about to make their mark on the creative landscape where chaos reigns supreme.

In just a week after his unexpected win in the general election, Malaysia's new Prime Minister Mahathir Mohamad has fulfilled his poll promise by scrapping the goods-and-services (GST) tax in the country. He has now promised to replace the 6 per cent GST with a moderate sales-and-service tax. There will be zero per cent GST in the country from June 1 even though the tax regime contributed to over 18 per cent of the government's revenue in 2017. Mahathir had promised to get rid of the GST as several people in the country were unhappy over rising living costs. His poll promises include fuel subsidies to common people and raising minimum wages.
The government is hoping to ease the rising inflation with the GST cut, which would lead to a rise in consumer spending, and hence boost the economy. Malaysia is the fourth largest oil and natural energy producer in the Asia-Pacific region. Since the crude prices are trading at a new high of $79 a barrel, the Malaysian economy is set to benefit from the move. Zeti Akhthar Aziz, a senior adviser to the Malaysian government, said on Tuesday that Malaysia would be able to reduce the fiscal deficit by controlling expenditure in the absence of GST, reported Reuters.
However, the credit rating agencies, including Moody's and Fitch, have also warned of serious economic consequences, including the widening of the budget deficit and overall reduction in the government income. But the new dispensation in Malaysia is confident that with crude oil prices likely to remain high for quite some time, the government would be able to recover its economic jolts.
The GST was introduced by former prime minister Najib Razak in 2015 after crude oil prices touched an all-time low of $37 a barrel, contributing over $11 billion to the economy; it also helped to reduce the fiscal deficit to just 3 per cent. With 18 per cent of the revenue inflow, GST was the second largest contributor to the Southeast Asian nation's economy after corporate income tax, which stood at 32 per cent.

HOFUF, Saudi Arabia—Saudi Arabia has issued bonds worth 20 billion riyals ($5.33 billion), and plans to raise billions more to maintain its spending plans, as the world’s top oil exporter grapples with lower revenues amid a dramatic drop in energy prices.
The bonds were sold to local banks and institutions in three tranches of five-, seven- and 10-year maturities, the official Saudi Press Agency, or SPA, said Tuesday, citing the Saudi finance ministry. Saudi Arabia issued development bonds worth 15 billion riyals in June as well, its first sovereign issuance since 2007. More multibillion debt sales could follow in the coming months, the SPA said.

Seeking geographical information, please:
Any information available in English
or Finnish about the
following city or town. Purportedly within the Duchy of Finland quite near the border with Russia (circa 1890).
Spelling (reading from
"Pyhojarpi" or it may
rather be "Pyhojarpi"--
i.e., the "a" and/or "o" are hard to read--the other letters, however, a-r-e clear.
Seeking: (a)any descriptive information;
(b)the city's/town's exact map location--I realize it may no longer exist under that name IF it is in the
changed Karelia region,
(now within Russia since WWII, i know);
(C) finally--which office or church parish would NOW have/store any birth and/or family records for that area.
My grandfather left there
in 1890. And several Finnish-American descendent generations
lack a-n-y information at all about
It looks like that your ancestors' homecounty is Pyhajarvi Vpl. (In Finnish Pyhajarvi is spelled with two a:s with dots, and Vpl is an abbreviation of Viipurin laani = Viipuri province). You can find a short description of the county, in Finnish though, in the following address
http://www.luovutettukarjala.org/pyhajarvihist.htm . Choose a link "Pyhäjärven kartta" and you'll find a map of the county.

The head of Libya’s National Oil Corporation has said troubled oil giant BP was an “opportunity” for investors, after the company’s shares fell by half since April.
“BP currently represent an opportunity for any investor,” NOC president Chokri Ghanem said.
“It is a recommendation that could be worthwhile for Libya or any other country or investor,” said Ghanem without specifying if the North African OPEC-member country could invest in BP.
But Ghanem, who was being asked to comment rumours that Libya would be interested in buying a stake in the troubled oil giant, said he was merely giving an “economist’s point of view”
“This has nothing to do, by near or far, with decisions concerning Libyan investment,” he said.
Meanwhile the British oil giant said that chief executive Tony Hayward was visiting “our important partners” amid speculation it was seeking help to cope with the soaring spill costs in the Gulf of Mexico.
“Our chief executive is on a general series of visits to our important partners,” a spokesman said, declining to confirm reports he has gone on from a trip to Azerbaijan to visit Abu Dhabi.
The company is reportedly seeking the support of foreign sovereign wealth funds in the wake of a collapsing share price.
Reports say securing such support could stave off a possible takeover bid for BP from a major competitor such as Exxon, Shell or Total.
BP’s share price has dropped by more than 50 percent since the Deepwater Horizon oil rig it leased sank on April 22, two days after a blast that killed 11 workers.
But BP insisted that it can cope with soaring oil spill costs without asking shareholders for cash, amid reports that Britain is working on a crisis plan if the company is sunk by the disaster.

I thought it a most extraordinary opera. So creative and deep. I loved it all: the libretto, the music that didn't necessarily guide the singers, the dissonance in the duets of the angels, the angels themselves, the Black Madonna, the Greek chorus in masks, the play-like intensity of mostly just recitativ (so well acted, too), the interlocking themes of war and environmental destruction - both for oil. I valued the racial diversity and the subtext of strong African American characters helping White characters in community - that experience reflected in art is needed in our world and country.
It just doesn't get better than this.

I watch TV on my other monitor.
Currently swapping between Malcolm in the Middle, Maron, random movies that catch my interest and Kripparian videos.
Although, I did find a nice playlist for long WW barb sessions.
Garrosh did nothing wrong!
House, trance. Basically the same music I listen to on long drives.
I usually watch TV-shows (sitcoms, cartoons, documentaries), let's plays on YouTube, or music that fits my mood (techno, deep house, minimal, ambient, rock).
Often trance or two steps from hell.
They're (short for They are) describes a group of people. "They're/They are a nice bunch of guys." Their indicates that something belongs/is related to a group of people. "Their car was all out of fuel." There refers to a location. "Let's set up camp over there." There is also no such thing as "could/should OF". The correct way is: Could/should'VE, or could/should HAVE.
Talk radio, oddly enough.
"Something must die every day in order for me to live."~Bill Burr
Usually soundtracks are my go to music while farming, Batman Begins/The Dark Knight/Rises, Pirates of the Caribbean, Pacific Rim, Star Wars, Lord of the Rings are usually my playlists, unless there's something interesting on tv.
If you're good at something, never do it for free.
I have a variety of playlists that I use for farming.
Predominately there are three that I use the most, though...
One is a combination of Heavy Metal, Symphonic/Melodic Metal, and Classic Rock.

The city council in Port Richey held a special meeting Wednesday night to discuss the future of city manager Tom O'Neill.
He was pulled over on July 13th, apparently drunk behind the wheel. He was taken to the hospital at the time, but was later charged in August with DUI after an investigation by the State Attorney's Office.
Council members ultimately decided to suspend O'Neill for 30 days without pay beginning on November 4th. They wanted to keep him around until then to help deal with budget issues.
He's also required to undergo substance abuse counseling.
"The range of options for this city and other cities ranges from do nothing to terminate. It depends on facts and circumstances. This is how this council wanted to proceed," said Mayor Eloise Taylor.
"I'm agreeable to the rest of it. I suggested November 4th, because its in the best interest of the city, I'm agreeable to 30 days," O'Neill said.
O'Neill refused comment after the meeting, but did tell council members he planned to start counseling next week.

A new study from the Mercatus Center uncovered some pretty shocking information that many conservatives already suspected but had no real way of proving. Now, we have the proof.
The latest version of George Mason Univeristy’s Mercatus’ Center study ranking the fiscal health of each and every state based on short-term and long-term debt, unfunded pensions, and healthcare benefits has some pretty telling news for Americans everywhere.
The ten most financially sound states in the country are all heavily Republican, while all but one of the ten worst states are heavily Democratic.
In fact, it gets even better. Of the top 25 most financially sound states, all but one (#24 Washington State) could be considered Republican-leaning (at the very least)!
Why are the top 5 and bottom 5 states ranked where they are?
TOP FIVE STATES
Alaska, Nebraska, Wyoming, North Dakota, and South Dakota rank in the top five states.
- Pensions and health care will continue to be long-term challenges. While these states are considered fiscally healthy relative to other states because they have significant amounts of cash on hand and relatively low short-term debt obligations, each state faces substantial long-term challenges related to its pension and healthcare benefits systems.
- Unpredictable revenue sources may play a role in short-term fiscal health. The top-performing states owe some of their success to unpredictable revenue sources. Since the most recent data is from fiscal year 2014, it appears as though these states are very well off, but declining oil prices and the budget crises that are currently unfolding in Alaska and other oil-producing states highlight the danger of expanding revenue based on volatile revenue sources.
- The top five states have changed since last year. Wyoming moved from sixth place last year to third place this year, pushing Florida out of the top five. The four remaining states were in the top five last year, but this year Nebraska moved to second place, demoting North Dakota and South Dakota.
BOTTOM FIVE STATES
Kentucky, Illinois, New Jersey, Massachusetts, and Connecticut rank in the bottom five states, largely owing to the low amounts of cash they have on hand and their large debt obligations.
- Each state has massive debt obligations. Each of the bottom five states exhibits serious signs of fiscal distress, making these states’ debt levels look more like Puerto Rico’s. Though the states’ economies may be stronger than Puerto Rico’s, allowing them to better navigate fiscal crises, their large debt levels still raise serious concerns.
- Unfunded liabilities continue to be a problem. High deficits and debt obligations in the forms of unfunded pensions and healthcare benefits continue to drive each state into fiscal peril. Each holds tens, if not hundreds, of billions of dollars in unfunded liabilities—constituting a significant risk to taxpayers in both the short and the long term.
- The bottom five states have changed since last year. Kentucky’s position has declined, placing it in the bottom five this year. New York is no longer in the bottom five. New Jersey and Illinois improved slightly, but remain in the bottom five. Connecticut and Massachusetts also remain in the bottom five, in slightly worse positions than last year.
So, what’s the big takeaway? Investors.com says it best, “The conservative approach of lower taxes and limited government is a winner, while big-spending liberalism invariably leads to financial ruin.”

Assignment #2 – Child Observation (15 minutes)
1. View Dr. Garry Landreth’s “Child Centered Play Therapy” video again, only this time with no sound. This will better enable you to report the things you SEE Kate, the little girl in the video, as she moves around the playroom. Choose a 15 minute segment to “observe” the child in the play therapy session. This child seems to be approximately age 4 or 5 yrs.
2. Using the Child Development Chart you prepared for Assignment #1 last week, compare the child in the video with the developmental information you found for a child ages 4 and 5. In 3 to 5 pages, first write up a detailed description (a moment by moment account) of the child in the 15 minute video segment you chose (including facial expressions, body posture, body movements, verbalization, interactions with Dr. Landreth as well as with the toys/materials in the room, and second, write up a comparison of the child in the video and what you observed, to the information in your developmental chart.
3. Summarize your paper in your final paragraph, by briefly discussing what you’ve learned from this assignment (you may want to even review the information regarding Clark Moustakas’ research on the play of adjusted and maladjusted children).
Assignment 3 (Brief Discussion)
Clark Moustakas studied the play of adjusted children and maladjusted children. What were his findings?
Discussion #4 – Review Dr. Landreth’s video “Child Centered Play Therapy” and Discuss the following points:
1. How does the role of play therapist differ from that of a parent or a teacher?
2. How is child therapy different from therapy with adults?
3. What is the rationale for choosing toys to use in play therapy?

FAITH can open your mind but it can also cause your brain to shrink at a different rate, research suggests.
Researchers at Duke University Medical Centre in the US claim to have discovered a correlation between religious practices and changes in the brains of older adults.
The study, published in the open-access science journal, Public Library of Science ONE, asked 268 people aged 58 to 84 about their religious group, spiritual practices and life-changing religious experiences. Changes in the volume of their hippocampus, the region of the brain associated with learning and memory, were tracked using MRI scans, over two to eight years.
Protestants who did not identify themselves as born-again were found to have less atrophy in the hippocampus region than did born-again Protestants, Catholics or those with no religious affiliation. Frequency of worship was not found to have a bearing on results, while participants who said they had undergone a religious experience were found to have more atrophy than those who did not.
Although the brain tends to shrink with age, atrophy in the hippocampus has been linked with depression and Alzheimer's disease.
The study authors Amy Owen and David Hayward said the changes were not explained by other factors that affect hippocampal atrophy, such as age, education, depression or brain size.

Stand with Senator Casey for the Clean Power Plan
For two years, we've been working together to ensure Senator Bob Casey stands as a climate champion in support of the Clean Power Plan
-- and now he's done just that.
These historic limits will cut carbon pollution from power plants by 32% by 2030 and put Pennsylvania on the path towards a clean energy future. But, coal companies are fighting back with multimillion dollar ads and continuing to fund climate deniers.
Please join us in thanking Senator Casey for standing up for this historic effort to tackle climate change. Send a message today.

Kylie Jenner has been called out on social media by her fans for allegedly doctoring one of her recent Instagram snaps.
The Keeping Up With the Kardashians star was photographed posing with her rapper beau Tyga while on vacation. Jenner is seated on the "Rack City" rapper's lap while he wraps his arms around her waist her from behind.
Some social media users believed that the Lip Kit creator photoshopped her leg to look thinner.
At first glance at the image in question, it appears that Kylie's right leg looks abnormally skinny. However, upon further examination, one Instagram user pointed out what makes the image seem photoshopped.
"Her leg is behind Tyga's, one user wrote. "It's not photoshopped...look at where their knee caps are and you will see her leg."
In addition to fans thinking that Kylie used photo edit magic to make her leg to look slimmer, others pointed out something particularly peculiar on her right knee.
"It looks like there's a huge mole or some kind of bump on her knee!!" one fan wrote on Tyga's post.
"She has a nipple on her knee," another commented.
One user believed that there was a rather large insect on Kylie's leg. "She got a d*mn ladybug on her," the Instagram user wrote.
An Instagrammer angrily penned this comment: "It's a nipple on her shrunken leg!!! I thoroughly enjoy these stupid girls. money can't fix stupid!"
Kylie Jenner most likely does not have an enormous wart or third nipple on her knee, but it is a known fact that she definitely has a rather large distinctive scar on her left leg. At the Golden Globes on Sunday, Kylie showed off the scar in her gorgeous dress.
Do you think Kylie Jenner photoshopped this recent Instagram snap?

I have been facing an issue with my Jetson NX dev kit. The monitor connected to it via DisplayPort is showing nothing. The Ethernet port is inactive. Running
nmcli d shows
unavailable on eth0. I looked for some other posts on this forum, in the hopes of finding a similar issue, but most of those were fixed with a simple service restart or re-enabling dhcp. They did not work in my case. Ethernet is still unavailable.
As for WiFi, there is a WiFi PCIe M.2 card attached, and it does not show under
nmcli d, which is odd.
I did not connect to any suspicious network before having this experience. The device worked for 2 months without flaw, with sparse usage. It was contained well, with no access to dust or ESD.
What did work, however, is the serial IO (through microUSB). I could
screen into the dev kit, with no issues, and that is how I could run
nmcli (as stated above).
After 1 day of encountering this error, I flashed Jetpack onto a fresh SD card, and tried to boot the Jetson from that. My port issues remained. However, I now have a new problem: The Jetson doesn’t boot. The Power LED is on, and the fan spins at maximum speed. But there is no response from the device through
Lastly, I went back to use the older SD card (the one I had in, when I first encountered this issue), and expected
screen to work. But now, that doesn’t work either. Now I am stuck with a board that does not boot, does not output display, and won’t connect to the internet.
The device still has a year of warranty remaining, and I contacted Support through Live Chat. They asked me to post in the official forum, and ask a developer whether or not this was a hardware failure. Could anyone please help me with this? I just need the ethernet and USB to work, and WiFi is not in my list of priorities.


Did you know that Paul Newman once commissioned a Volvo 960 with a racing V8 engine? Well, as a matter of fact, he commissioned two units, one for him and one for his racing partner David Letterman. The talk-show host still owns the car and brought it along when Jerry Seinfeld asked him to be the guest of his show, Comedians in Cars Getting Coffee.
So how does a racing V8 engine fit with the docile character of the Volvo 960 wagon? Well, it’s enough to say that when the engine starts, the Volvo’s cover is blown completely. The 380-horsepower supercharged V8 unit turns it into a “muscle wagon” that constantly wants to go fast, as Seinfeld found out for himself when he sat behind the wheel.
So if you want to find out more about the car from David Letterman himself, including the Volvo’s tendency to break down at the most inappropriate moments, just hit play in the video below.

Wyoming’s largest electrical utility last week received a state Industrial Siting Council permit for a planned wind farm in Carbon County, but not before the council heard some serious concerns about the impacts of the construction project.
Approval of the Seven Mile Hill wind project, located between Medicine Bow and Hanna, included a late filing by PacifiCorp Energy to expand the project from 66 turbines to 79.
Although no one was opposed to the project during last week’s council hearing, several local officials expressed concern about the adequacy of PacifiCorp’s plans for housing workers, provision of emergency services during construction, and disposal of trash generated by the project. Also of concern were road access to the project and drive times to the site.
Among those with concerns were Carbon County Commission Chairman Terry Weickum, County Attorney Cindy DeLancey, road and bridge Superintendent Bill Nation, Hanna town attorney Peggy Trent, and Tom Thompson, attorney for the High Country Joint Powers Board, which supervises the public landfill near Hanna.
PacifiCorp attorney Mary Thorne said the general contractor for the project, Tetra Tech, is obligated to provide housing for the project. Several questions were asked of Tetra Tech and PacifiCorp representatives concerning the specifics of the housing plan, as they had testified that most of their workers would be coming in for this project.
This project is expected to be completed by December, with the bulk of the workers expected during the summer. The permit application noted that up to 166 workers might rent rooms at motels in the region, which includes Rawlins, Laramie and Casper. There are 5,150 motel rooms in the area.
Weickum noted that a survey conducted for the application didn’t determine how many of those rooms aren’t being rented already.
Thorne noted that a delay in a planned coal-to-liquids plant near Medicine Bow – expected to bring hundreds of construction workers to the area – should help with wind farm worker housing.
Weickum acknowledged that “166 people is more manageable” than the large number expected for the coal-to-liquids plant, but “all of them in one room is not going to work.”
David Bublitz, senior project manager for Tetra Tech, said many workers will likely bring their own housing in the form of RVs.
“These are professional workers who come prepared to live in these remote locations,” he said. “This project is better because (potential) RV sites are relatively close.”
In an effort to allay the fears expressed by council member Jim Miller of “an RV behind every sagebrush,” PacifiCorp Vice President for Renewable Resource Acquisition Mark Tallman, assured the council that, “In the event that Tetra Tech fails in their plan to provide the necessary temporary hosing, PacifiCorp is prepared to step in and fulfill the need.”
PacifiCorp Project Manager Pam Jackson said later in the meeting that PacifiCorp remains committed to solving the housing problem for this project and would “provide transportation for workers if housing is out of the area.” In a worst-case scenario, “PacifiCorp will provide temporary housing (for the workers) at another wind project site near Glenrock,” some two hours away.
That brought a clearly negative response from members of the audience. Several witnesses and council members expressed concern about any commute times over one hour.
Another concern raised by local officials was how much trash and waste would be generated during the construction and later during operations. The landfill for the area is located near Hanna, and it is reaching the end of its life expectancy and space is limited, according to Thompson, who represents the High Country Joint Powers Board that operates the landfill.
He raised concern about the volume of waste that would be generated by the project and the landfill’s ability to handle it, as it is expected to change from a landfill to just a transfer station by 2009.
Bublitz assured the council that there would not be much waste. When pressed, said possibly a 20-yard slide-off Dumpster would be needed during construction and an 8-yard Dumpster in the area where the office trailers will be located.
A third reason the project creates “heartburn” for Weickum is the limited availability of emergency services in the northeastern portion of Carbon County where it is being built. Council member Sandy Shuptrine was also concerned about the “availability of emergency services in that remote location.”
Weickum said the nearest ambulance to the project site is one recently stationed in Elk Mountain by the Carbon County Hospital. It is some 30 miles from the project site and is staffed full time only during the daytime and by volunteers from Hanna and Elk Mountain at night.
According to the application and testimony given during the hearing, neither PacifiCorp nor Tetra Tech plans to station an ambulance at the job site.
After hours of sometimes heated questions, which at one point caused PacifiCorp’s attorney to complain that Hanna’s attorney was harassing a company witness, all the local parties agreed that the project would be good for the county.
“It is a great project, and I am glad they are putting it in our county,” Weickum said.

"I didn't think I could be shocked by a tweet anymore but "mission accomplished" was so surprising I had to double check that it was not a spoof", said Sen.
It was an unusual choice of phrase, given that George Bush notoriously posed in front of a "Mission Accomplished" banner - six weeks into the failed American invasion of Iraq. He appeared under a banner reading, "Mission Accomplished", but never used that exact phrase in the address. While semantics come into play here, the United States is simply not yet finished with Syria so long as the genocidal strongman Bashir al-Assad remains in power.
Though officers mentioned the singular goal was Assad'schemical weapons functionality, his air drive, together with helicopters he allegedly has used to drop chemical weapons on civilians, had been spared.
"We took action and what happens next is the decision of Assad".
Allied missiles struck at the heart of the Syrian chemical weapons arsenal, aiming to punish the Assad government for a suspected poison gas attack against civilians and deter the possible future use of such banned weapons. "We were trying to say something differently but, nevertheless, it conveyed a different message".
Veterans of Washington policymaking in the Middle East offered conditional praise for Trump's restrained approach to the strike, if not necessarily his more bellicose rhetoric.
Meanwhile, Inspectors from the Organisation for the Prohibition of Chemical Weapons are due to begin work at the site of the alleged chemical weapons attack in Douma just outside Damascus.
"There's nonetheless a residual ingredient of the Syrian program that's on the market", McKenzie mentioned, including, "I am not going to say they will be unable to proceed to conduct a chemical assault sooner or later".
'What should we do about Syria?' is a question few - if any - will have an answer.
Others argued that the strike was a waste that accomplished little and, in the process, exceeded the president's authority as commander in chief since he did not obtain authorisation from Congress first. He dismissed National Security Advisor H.R. McMaster in favor of John Bolton, who aggressively backed war with Iraq while serving under Bush, and who has urged preemptive attacks on Iran and North Korea. "The war on terror is not over, yet it is not endless", Bush said. (And many outside it are certain to be hoping they do.) But though critics are complaining that the White House has no serious strategy on Syria-and despite some mixed messages coming from the administration itself-the mission in this case does seem to have been, quite particularly, specifically defined.
By most accounts, the strike essentially left in place the status quo on the ground.

ASHBURN, Va. (March 20, 2007) -- Adam Archuleta's tumultuous time with the Washington Redskins ended when he was traded to the Chicago Bears for a sixth-round draft pick, The Associated Press has learned.
Archuleta, who languished on the bench most of last season despite having the richest contract ever given a safety, will be reunited in Chicago with coach Lovie Smith, his former defensive coordinator with the St. Louis Rams.
The trade was confirmed by an official within the league who spoke on condition of anonymity because the teams do not plan to announce it until March 21. The deal came one day before Archuleta was due to paid a guaranteed multi-million-dollar bonus.
The Redskins lured Archuleta to Washington a year ago with a seven-year contract, a signing that quickly became one of the biggest free-agent blunders in the league.
It soon became apparent that assistant coach Gregg Williams would try to use the hard-hitting converted linebacker more as a coverage safety. When Archuleta struggled, he landed firmly in Williams' doghouse.
Archuleta lost the starting job in preseason and regained it for the first seven regular-season games only because of a knee injury to Pierson Prioleau. Archuleta's liabilities were one of the reasons the Redskins were especially vulnerable against long passes as they slumped to a 5-11 record. Eventually, the Redskins took Archuleta out of the defense altogether, using him only on special teams for most of the second half of the season.
The subject was clearly embarrassing to both Williams and coach Joe Gibbs, and neither ever gave an explanation for Archuleta's demotion. Once the season ended, Gibbs indicated Archuleta was still in the team's plans, but those remarks were mostly seen as posturing before a possible trade.
Getting rid of Archuleta wasn't easy because of his mammoth contract. The Redskins didn't want to cut him outright because of the huge cost on their 2007 salary cap. The bonus was already postponed once as the Redskins worked to make a trade, and any deal was expected to include a renegotiation of Archuleta's salaries and bonuses.
The Bears were the only likely destination because of Archuleta's relationship with Smith. Archuleta was hoping to sign with Chicago as a free agent last year, but he decided on Washington after the Redskins offered the big contract.

Saturday, August 20, marks Southern HIV/AIDS Awareness Day (SHAAD) 2022. The region accounts for 53% of new HIV cases and 47% of all deaths among people with HIV, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. Specifically, it’s estimated that 18,500 of the 34,800 new HIV diagnoses in 2019 were in the South.
“There is an HIV/AIDS crisis in the South,” declares the Southern AIDS Coalition, which launched the awareness day in 2019. “SHAAD is the day we rewrite our narrative! SHAAD gives us all an opportunity to join a national movement to raise awareness, erase HIV/AIDS-related stigma and discrimination and to advocate for new and necessary resources and solutions to stem the tide of HIV/AIDS in the South.”
August 20th is Southern HIV/AIDS Awareness Day #SHAAD. To recognize this day, AIDSVu spoke to the Director of Health Department Initiatives at @SouthernAIDSCo, Darnell Barrington, on challenging misconceptions around the #HIV epidemic in the South: https://t.co/ZdbR1oN52N pic.twitter.com/xolT7qx8n7— AIDSVu (@AIDSVu) August 18, 2022
Listings of events and links to resources are available on awareness day’s website SouthernSolution.org.
AIDSVu.org, which creates graphics and interactive maps based on HIV data, also offers a look at the disproportionate impact of HIV in the region. “The South experiences a higher burden of HIV compared to other regions across the country, especially among communities of color,” AIDSVu states in Deeper Look: HIV in the South. “Black Americans in the South represented half of all new HIV diagnoses in the region in 2020, despite comprising only 19% of the Southern population. The South also only accounted for 21% of PrEP users in 2021.”
PrEP [pre-exposure prophylaxis] refers to the daily pills and long-term injectables that can prevent a person from acquiring HIV. AIDSVu recently updates its PrEP interactive maps to include data on race and ethnicity.

AIDSVu also posted an interview with Darnell Barrington, MPH, the director of health department Initiatives at the Southern AIDS Coalition. He makes the case that current narratives around HIV in the South are outdated. “I truly believe that the solution to ending the epidemic on a national scale will be found in the South,” he says. “The South is such a cradle of innovation, where so many of the answers exist but where people are not always invited to the table. This is the new narrative: The South is fully capable of addressing the needs of people living with HIV or at increased risk for HIV, but it needs opportunities for people’s voices to be heard and opportunities to advocate so that there are adequate resources and funding.”
To coincide with the awareness day and address the epidemic among Black Americans in the South, HIV drugmaker Gilead Sciences announced it is funding a $4.5 million collaboration with the Satcher Health Leadership Institute at the Morehouse School of Medicine in Atlanta and the Center for Minority Health and Health Disparities Research and Education at Xavier University of Louisiana’s College of Pharmacy.

Providing adequate nutrition at planting is essential for a productive growing season. When looking at early season growth, consider the nutrients that are necessary at this time, such as phosphorus. Phosphorus is essential for stimulating early season root and shoot growth in seedlings. Phosphorus can be used in the form of starter fertilizer to meet crop needs.
When measuring the effectiveness of starter fertilizer, there are numerous factors to evaluate including germination, emergence, growth, pollination, dry down, and finally, yield. Placing starter fertilizer in-furrow or close to the seed helps to achieve three main goals by effectively delivering key nutrients in an available form to the crop:
- Quick germination and even emergence,
- Accelerated growth, and
- Enhanced grain fill and yield.
The first goal when using a starter fertilizer is to get the seed out of the ground as quickly and evenly as possible. The longer the seed is in the ground and not exposed to the sun, the more likely it will be affected by insect damage, disease, or insufficient energy. Lost plants or slow emergence can translate into yield reduction. If a corn plant germinates and emerges later than its neighbors by one growth stage, it becomes a weed that is robbing nutrients from the productive crop.
The next goal is increased vegetative growth and earlier pollination. Starter fertilizer contributes to accelerated growth throughout the growing season, increasing the photosynthetic ability of the crop. In many cases, starter fertilizer can lead to germination occurring 7 days earlier compared to crops that did not receive the benefits of starter fertilizer. As these plants emerge earlier, they get a jumpstart on growth progress through the season quicker, Figure 1.
The final goal is to influence grain fill and dry down. By providing essential nutrients through the season, the crop has adequate supplies to maximize grain fill and remain healthy until harvest. If a crop does not have sufficient nutrition, it will rob nutrients from the stalk and leaves to fill the ear. When this happens, the crop is weaker and more susceptible to lodging. When the crop is properly equipped at harvest, it is able to focus its efforts on grain fill and dry down, leading to greater yield at harvest, Figure 2.
In conclusion, starter fertilizer has proven to provide three main benefits – early emergence, quicker pollination, and faster dry down at harvest. If these three main objectives are achieved, higher yields will likely be observed.
The Andersons is proud to introduce a one-of-a-kind organic liquid row starter, PureStart™. PureStart organic fertilizer is OMRI Listed® and designed specifically for organic production.

During our lifetime, the density, or calcium content of our skeleton is in a state of continual change. As humans, our bones are most highly mineralized with calcium at the age of 33. From this point forward, even in the best of circumstances, our bone mineral progressively decreases throughout the remainder of life.
After age 33, both men and women lose bone calcium at a steady rate. This gradual loss of bone density is called Type II Osteoporosis and occurs at a more rapid rate in women. However, women suffer a ten year period of accelerated bone loss after menopause which is called Type I Osteoporosis.
Without treatment the typical American female has lost 33.5% of bone mineral by the age of 65. The typical American male has lost 10% of bone mineral by the age of 65. Unfortunately, this decrease in calcium results in a decrease in the overall strength of our bones. As our skeleton becomes more fragile, we are more susceptible to fracture.
Smoking seems to add to this problem. Multiple studies now verify an accelerated loss of bone mineral in men and women who smoke. Multiple theories have been advanced; however, nearly all studies have demonstrated higher rates of fracture among adults who smoke.

[CBT] [SD WG] Notes from goal review and goal setting meeting
dboswell at mozilla.com
Fri Jun 28 12:12:25 PDT 2013
I wanted to send out notes from today's meeting to review the Q2 goals of the Systems and Data working group and to set goals for Q3.
The status for the Q2 goals is below:
* Establish public criteria for evaluating existing systems [DONE]
* Select top three priorities for community building functionality needs [DONE]
* Draft requirements and identify resources for the highest priority need [MISS]
* Start phase 1 of auditing existing systems including People's Onboarding tool [DONE]
The goals for Q3 are:
* Wrap up audit process of People team's systems
* Resolve decision about software to use for top three community building functionality needs
* Continue development of contribution dashboards for Webdev, Coding and SUMO functional areas
The Q2 goals weren't included in MoCo's quarterly goals process, but for Q3 we're looking at updating the goals doc to include a 'Community Building' sub-team under the People team where we can attach these goals.
That would be a good location for any goals we want to set as a group and not just goals around systems and data. If anyone has thoughts about other goals around recognition, education, etc we should be setting, let's discuss.

Warriors coach to skip 5-game road trip
The Warriors say coach Don Nelson hasn’t fully recovered from pneumonia and won’t travel with the team on its five-game road trip that begins Monday in Oklahoma City.
Nelson recently missed five games after his Nov. 23 diagnosis but returned to the bench Thursday night for a home game against the Houston Rockets. A Warriors statement on Friday said team doctors recommended that Nelson stay in the San Francisco Bay area next week to regain strength and stamina.
Golden State says Nelson still plans to coach the team Saturday when the Warriors host the Orlando Magic.
Top assistant Keith Smart coached five games in Nelson’s absence and will lead the Warriors (6-12) during the road trip. The 69-year-old Nelson is expected to rejoin the club when they return to Oakland on Dec. 16.

Hmmm most of the books I’d consider as “comfort” books have already been mentioned, so I’m going to go forthe books I turn to when I’ve had a long day and I’m too exhausted to concentrate on anything complicated or clever.
The Sookie Stackhouse (a.k.a Southern Vampire (a.k.a True Blood)) series by Charlaine Harris is neither complicated or clever. These are literary soap operas, the kind of books you can read in one sitting and never think about again. Fortunately the characters are just this side of one dimensional and some of the set pieces are imaginative enough to keep the reader entertained. This series treats the vampire mythos with some degree of respect whilst still letting the characters be flawed, both of which seem to be missing from Twilight. Sorry but I like vampires to be real vampires. Just like Dexter and Bones, the TV series that has been spawned by the Sookie Stackhouse books is wildly better than its source, which makes it all worthwhile in the end 🙂
