Kat and Corey Greer spend half their weekend distributing free food to families in their northwest Winnipeg neighbourhood — something they say they do to help fill a vital need in the community, even though they’re living paycheque to paycheque themselves.
Every Saturday, the couple receives boxes of food at their Weston area home. The food, usually perishables, comes from different grocery stores and organizations that would otherwise have to throw it away — if it weren’t for people like the Greers.
They take a few items for themselves, then spend the day putting together as many food hampers as they can. They post pictures of the hampers on social media, which is how they then connect with people who need the food.
“Within hours [the food is] out the door and people have it in their homes. They can use [it] within the next couple of days,” Kat said.
The loosely knit group of people doing this type of work in Weston calls it “mutual aid” — helping fellow community members by sharing goods or services. While many mutual aid groups popped up during the COVID-19 pandemic, the Greers started their work even before that.
They say produce and meat are the most-needed items in their hampers, and they try to spread out as much food as they can.
“At minimum, someone’s going to get bread or potatoes, even if there’s one thing left,” Corey said. “Somebody’s still getting something.”
There’s no doubt for them that the food they distribute is needed in the wider community.
“[We] do it to fill a need because [we] have to,” Corey said.
Looking for solutions as costs rise
One of the places the Greers receive food from is a food rescue charity called the Leftovers Foundation.
Julia Kraemer, the charity’s co-ordinator in Winnipeg, says over the last few years she’s seen more people struggling and in need of the services of the organization, which also operates in Calgary, Edmonton and Fort McMurray, Alta.
“With the rising food cost, people are needing more solutions,” she said.
Kraemer said mutual aid groups, like the one the Greers are part of, are essential to minimize their food waste.
“When our charity partners are closed for the weekend and we have food that’s aging, it still needs to go somewhere. We know that there’s so many people who are needing that assistance,” Kraemer said.
“So we lean heavily on grassroots and mutual aid groups.”
Kraemer said it’s important to support such groups, which typically know best what people in their communities need.
“Nobody knows what they need better than the individual themselves,” she said.
Julian-Caleb Woodford is a single dad who often receives hampers from the Greers. He’s also part of Weston’s mutual aid community.
Woodford and his son help their neighbours, some of whom are not mobile, by picking up food and delivering it — by foot — across the Weston community.
“Everybody needs to eat,” he said. “I might not be able to contribute a whole lot myself, but I do [what I] can.”
According to Food Matters Manitoba, over 14 per cent of Manitobans experience food insecurity, meaning they don’t have enough money to buy food. It affects one in five children, disproportionately hitting Indigenous and Black households, the non-profit says.
Kat and Corey Greer said they’ll continue to put together hampers for their community as long as food insecurity is a problem — for themselves and for others.
“What matters more is that there’s food for all,” Corey said.

Broadcast on 2CH Sydney, 20 Jan 2013.
While the European Court of Human Rights this week upheld the right of workers to wear religious symbols, after a British Airways check-in clerk was sent home because the small cross she was wearing contravened the airline’s uniform policy, a different storm is brewing in Australia over the right of religious organisations to only employ staff who share their religious beliefs.
Federal Attorney-General Nicola Roxon, who is overseeing reform of Australia’s anti-discrimination laws, said on Wednesday that exemptions for religious bodies in relation to employment had been in place for many years and would continue under Labor’s proposal.
But independent Sydney MP Alex Greenwich claimed that “By allowing hospitals and schools to practise discrimination the Prime Minister is supporting breeding grounds for homophobia” – a claim many Australians regard as both offensive and ignorant.
One thing is certain: you won’t find Greens MPs employing political staff who are members of the Liberal and National Parties.

Today we’re taking a peek at a new set of images of the next Oculus virtual reality headset. This newest headset has not yet been unveiled officially, so we’re working with a limited set of leaked details. What we DO have is some rather vivid imagery of this headset from a couple of key angles.
The device which we’re calling Oculus Quest 2 might just as easily be called Oculus Quest Lite, or something different entirely. The most likely scenario is either Oculus Quest 2 or Oculus Quest (2020), like Apple sometimes does with their products with names that don’t really change from year to year.
The headset we’re looking at here looks a LOT like its predecessor with a few key differences. It would appear that the headset has no manual control for eye distance – that’d normally be just in front of the area left for the nose. Another is the color.
We’ve still got the built-in audio system – directed from the headset to the user’s temples and ear area through the headband and head support. We’ve still got USB-C and a standard headphone jack as well. You’ll likely be able to use your own headphones if you wish.
There would appear to be two microphone holes in the headset, both at the bottom on either side, allowing the user to send voice commands and/or communicate with other people also participating in whatever online virtual reality universe the headset will deliver.
UPDATE: A third microphone hole appears to be placed just to the side of the power button on the headset, on the right. The long button on the bottom of the headset is almost certainly a volume controller, and the several large black circles around the front are cameras/sensors to allow the headset to function without the aid of 3D sensors outside of the headset.
The controllers appear to be functionally identical to their predecessors, with the possible exception of a slightly modified grip. The entire setup looks sleek, simple, and beautiful.
Per the leaks from @h0x0d, we’ll see this headset appear at a virtual event on September 15, 2020. That’ll be an Oculus event, more than likely – with a possibility of a major Facebook presence in the mix.

Lawsuit Funding For Discrimination Cases
LFIN provides discrimination lawsuit funding for pending and lawsuits. If your case has been settled and needs a fast lawsuit loan you might want to consider our settlement funding legal services.
LFIN understands that discrimination cases are frustrating enough, especially if you have lost work or are receiving less pay than you deserve. With this in mind, we make it easy for you to qualify for legal funding when you need it most. Our lawsuit funding options may be a valuable asset with the economy being at an all-time low.
We also specialize in structured settlement funding and offer you the most money for your structured settlement and annuity payments. Having a job is important and when you are discriminated against your financial situation can be affected negatively.
Nearly all states in the country will uphold the at-will employment law with the public policy exception, which means that an employer may not fire a worker if it would violate state or federal statute. Although employees still have rights before and after an employer terminates them.
Federal laws safeguard workers concerning job discrimination. Both federal and state law prevents employers from discriminating against employees that either currently works for or are attempting for the employer. These state and federal laws involve the following statutes:
Discrimination Lawsuits & Acts
1963 Equal pay act – is a United States Federal law amending the Fair labor standards act, aimed at abolishing wage disparity based on sex protects men and women who perform substantially equal work wage discrimination.
1964 Civil rights act – outlawed major forms of discrimination against African Americans and women, including racial segregation. It ended unequal application of voter registration requirements and racial segregation in schools, at the workplace, and by facilities that served the general public.
1967 Age Discrimination in Employment Act – forbids employment discrimination against anyone at least 40 years of age.
1973 Rehabilitation Act – prohibits discrimination based on disability in programs conducted by Federal agencies, in programs receiving Federal financial assistance, in Federal employment, and the employment practices of Federal contractors.
1990 Americans with Disabilities Act – The ADA is a wide-ranging civil rights law that prohibits, under certain circumstances, discrimination based on disability.
1991 Civil Rights Act – is a United States statute that was passed in response to a series of United States Supreme Court decisions, which limited the rights of employees who had sued their employers for discrimination. The Act represented the first effort since the passage of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 to modify some of the basic procedural and substantive rights provided by federal law in employment discrimination cases. It provided for the right to trial by jury on discrimination claims and introduced the possibility of emotional distress damages while limiting the amount that a jury could award.
Why Take Settlement Loans For Discrimination Cases?
Discrimination laws such as above were set in place to protect people from companies discriminating against their workers and the worker’s families. American citizens who are hard workers who have been discriminated against in these ways listed above have to lead to multi-million dollar high profile lawsuits.
Even though these lawsuits take place, discrimination still exists today. After an employee decides to exercise their legal right to obtain compensation for being discriminated against in a court of law it can still take years for a settlement can be reached. If you have a pending discrimination lawsuit settlement or a discrimination settlement, obtain low-cost Litigation Funding from LFIN.
We offer discrimination settlement loans and pre-settlement financing across the US. Plaintiffs in these types of cases are no longer employed so financial struggles can come abruptly that’s why LFIN can ease your financial stress and have you approved for funding in 24 hours.

Estonia: 40 years since the historic memorandum by the Estonian resistance to the UN General Assembly.
"40 years ago the Estonian people made history by having the courage to peacefully fight for the independence of their country. On 24 October 1972 a Memorandum was sent from Soviet occupied Estonia to the United Nations calling for the independence of the Republic of Estonia, which had been illegally occupied and annexed to the Soviet Union as a result of the 1939 Hitler-Stalin Pact", said Joseph Daul MEP, Chairman of the EPP Group, the largest political group in the European Parliament.
According to one of the initiators of the 1972 Memorandum, Tunne Kelam MEP, the only lifeline for Estonian citizens, after 27 years of Soviet dominance, was the awareness that leading Western democracies still refused to recognise the Soviet annexation of the Baltic states as legal. "This was a desperate message to the West sent in the full knowledge that all participants would be harshly punished just for the simple fact of openly stating their concerns", said Kelam MEP. "We asked for the help of the United Nations to restore the independence of Estonia, a former member state of the League of Nations, by introducing temporary UN administration, by evacuating Soviet occupation forces and by organising free elections to the Constituent Assembly."
The Chairman of the EPP Group stressed the importance of the Memorandum that reached Western public opinion, because a better understanding started to grow that the Baltic nations deserve the same measure of freedom and democracy that other members of the UN enjoyed.
"We are proud that nine years later, in January 1983, the European Parliament adopted its first resolution in support of the Baltic nations, initiated by Otto von Habsburg", concluded Joseph Daul.

Is it racist to criticise a culture?
Do you think a person's race should generally determine a person's culture? Should a person align himself w/the country he was raised in, the country his parents were born in, or the country where he is a citizen?
Is it *racist* to criticise a foreign culture?
Say I am very knowledgeable about this foreign culture.
& to "criticise" is not to yell hate and mindless insults, but to comment, "This can be improved, this is backwards, this is commendable, etc."
AND THUS, judge certain aspects of certain cultures as inferior, such as the misogyny, anti-education, etc. in some cultures.
- Anonymous1 decade agoFavourite answer
You have every right to criticise something. But you must back it up with facts. Take note: Criticise is not to condemn. Condemn is a very different incident altogether.
When you "criticise" a foreign culture, you are not actually criticising the culture, but the bad points.
For example, quite unlike what many people had perceived, Islam itself is NOT a bad religion. It is just that some damn fools who embrace the religion misinterpret it and did damage to the world in its name.
So, yes, you can condemn such people. In fact, they should be hanged. But, no, Islam itself is not a bad religion. You can criticise certain shortcomings it has, but you cannot condemn it.
Hope this helps.

It's very unAmerican to think a person's race is relevant to a specific culture. When I see people of color, some might be foreign, but others are very American. It's quite ignorant to believe that Americans have a specific physical look considering the country has such a long history of interracial mixing since Columbus set foot on this land.
It is not racist to criticize a foreign culture. It is simply just an act of sharing a personal perspective. People tend to forget that criticism isn't a fact, but an observance.
Some people are excessively PC to the point that it's a fault because the over sympathize with everything. People need to get over the whole race and ethinicity thing I think.
- David MLv 61 decade ago
The problem is over generalization. A culture, by definition, is the way that most, or at least many, people from a certain group behave and relate to eachother on a daily basis. If most people did not behave this way then it would not be considered their culture. Anytime you criticize a "culture" you have to make broadbrush general comments about the way "they" behave and those sweeping generalizations will not necessarily accurately describe every single human being from that cultural group. Because of this some people will call it racist, but others will say it is valid critisism.
In any case however, you had better make really well sure that you are accurately critisizing something that is an actual element of a group's culture and not just a stereotype about that group.
- drshortyLv 71 decade ago
I think it's basically impossible for a person to be culturally anything but like the country he/she was raised in, since the environment has such a strong influence on a person's personal culture. But the influence from parents is pretty strong too.
Yes, I think that it is often a form of prejudice to criticize a culture, depending on the intent behind the criticism.
- What do you think of the answers? You can sign in to give your opinion on the answer.
- Pirate AM™Lv 71 decade ago
Racism is treating a person different because they are a different race. Criticizing another culture isn't racist, unless it's done soly because they are a diiferent race.
Culture is not a "should" in that a person is a product of all the cultures that they are influenced by with the majority of the culture being the one the grew up in. This is only a general statement, as individuals will vary
- Civis RomanusLv 51 decade ago
If you criticize a foreign culture without knowing anything about it, based solely on misconceptions, preconceptions, bias, and prejudice, then, yes, you may find yourself guilty of racism.
If you have a good knowledge and understanding of a foreign culture, you will be in a better position to "criticize" it. I don't mean knocking it down, but analyzing it, comparing it with other cultures, seeing the similarities and differences, the strengths and weaknesses.
You should be just as capable of "criticizing" your own culture. You should realize that no culture has cornered the market on truth, or knows the "one and only" way of thinking and doing things. You should not swallow even your own culture hook, line, and sinker.
We can all learn from one another. Appreciating other cultures doesn't mean you value your own any less. It just enriches your knowledge and understanding of the world.
- zeppelin_rosesLv 41 decade ago
No i don't think it is. And I think that most claims of racism nowadays aren't actual cases of racism anyway.
People seem to think if you mention race or criticise a culture then you are automatically being racist.
However, it's only racist once you DISCRIMINATE based on ethnicity. (Note BASED, not just involving people of different races)
I was watching the news the other day (UK) and there was a murder. The victim was black so the reporter asked the police "Do you think this was a race hate crime?". However, that never got asked for all the crimes involving white people on the same news bulletin. People are all so quick to claim racism..

I believe it's racist to criticize a foreign culture because you're doing it out of sheer ignorance. Most racism stems from fear and ignorance and simply being uncomfortable with the unknown. There isn't any rulebook that states the culture you or I currently have is the correct one and we all should follow suit. This world was created with diversity and we need to embrace and respect it. You may not be comfortable with it, but it's not your life, it's theirs. I believe a person should align himself with whatever culture HE/SHE is comfortable with, irregardless of his parents' native land. If he/she is now an American citizen, but traditional customs are followed in his household, the Constitution says he/she's free to do so. We are so quick to judge or criticize people. When in the end, we are all the same.
- 1 decade ago
I think the person should align themselves with whomever they choose may it be their country or not. I think it is a bit racist to criticize a foreign culture because its as if you were to be criticized because you are a female or male without getting the fair chance to be yourself. cause everyone is unique and just because you are the same race or born from the same or different country doesn't make you better. We're all the same (human), but different (personalities, beliefs, movies like to watch, etc.!!! Also, if you were to criticize blindly, you are the one to be less educated because of your close-mindness. I don't think it is fair at all to judge someone/anyone without at least trying to get to know them.
- Anonymous1 decade ago
Discussions about race (and culture, country, family) is fine.
Just don't discriminate. You are "racist" only if your actions dictate that you are. We all have our inner racist, but we are intellectuals, and so we overcome those feelings. We can't help but to think them. It's like trying to control an uncontrollable reflex.... and we all know we can't stop our knee from jerking if we wanted to (at the doctor's office.)
It's okay to criticize things. Back up your claims with information that supports your position, which is not race.
Align yourself, with yourself. Choose your own allies based on how you feel. Don't worry about anyone else. Be true to your inner feelings about what is right and what is wrong. You won't disappoint yourself.
Peace and love. Spread the word.

Should Violent Video Games be Banned?
Videogames are now one of the biggest entertainment ways in our society. Do you think that we should ban the violent videogames?
Video games are one of the few industries that are escaping from the world crisis. Many people now can’t practically live without them, spending hours and hours a day playing games like counter strike or halo 3.
In the last few years, the benefits and adverse effects have been several discussed. There are people that say that there is no problem, because video games are just a good entertainment way, and it can be good for developing our mind skills. However, there are some bad things, like loneliness, but the most discussed thing is no doubt, the violence on the video games.
It is believed that some of the most terrible murders that happened in the last few years occurred because of video games, so in many countries, the governments are trying to ban them. Grand Theft Auto, most known as GTA, is one of the most discussed games, because of it’s violent content.
I don’t think that the video games should be banned, because behind of that “horrible violence” like people say,there are months and months of work. Instead of try to ban the games, I think that it should be restricted the access to them, when people are under age to playing it. The restrict methods that actually exists, at least at my country, practically don’t work, because anyone can buy a +18 video game, even if is under age. The biggest problem is that we didn’t get yet an effective way to avoid kids playing violent games.

So, where the heck are they?
Lots of people write to us to ask where we post our recipes online, and the answer is that, for the most part, we don’t.
There are three reasons for this:
1. Many of our recipes are simple to the point that your ability to replicate our honey source would be the most important detail, and that’s not something we can really advise you on.
2. Most of what makes our mead special is the techniques we use, and not the ingredients.
3. Sometimes, our recipes change, and we don’t want old versions floating out there in the ether.
To us, this last reason is the most important.
Take for example our Winter Warmer. Up until this year, we made a tea of some of our spices, added it, then aged the mead on cinnamon sticks. This year, we changed it up by playing around with the ratios of the spices and doing a longer aging period with no tea at a colder temperature.
It turns out that the staff likes this version better, but since we’re not the people who buy it, we’re going to wait to see what our Meadiacs have to say. If the consensus is that this is an improvement, then everyone who asks for the recipe this year will get a slightly different version from the one we’ve sent out in the past. (And, incidentally, gave to BYO magazine.)
This means that our homebrewing fans get not only the best recipe for replicating what we make but also you’ll have the most up-to-date recipes and techniques as we learn more about brewing.
This is definitely a more time-consuming way to go about being an open-source company, but we think it helps keep us honest and innovative. We hope that you appreciate it as well!
So please contact us to request recipe info, or be sure to check out this page and see what we have to offer already.

I’m a wedding photographer. It’s the busy season. I am so grateful. And so busy.
A couple of weeks ago, my nearly 9-year-old approached me, and asked if I would have time in my schedule to book a wedding with her. She wants to put on a wedding for her beloved dolls who have fallen in love. And, because apparently I’ve raised her to understand that an artists time is worth something, she wants to pay me. In lots of love and massages. YES. Her 7-year-old sister caught wind, and wanted to be a part. She offered to pay in “dirty work”. I’m not quite sure what “dirty work” means yet, but that was a deal I was definitely willing to make. They booked the shoot, and they began planning.
Apparently Barbie (who is lovingly named Lila, now) and Justin weren’t able to wait for their wedding day to hold their ceremony. I guess I missed it. I was a little bummed. But I was still humbly asked to shoot their formals. At the art direction of my daughter, of course. I obliged. Because, heck yes.
I don’t think I’ve ever had a more fun afternoon collaborating and creating art with my loves. All three of them came up with their own really fun and creative things to do that I probably never would have thought of. I love how kids can refresh my creativity and my soul, all at the same time.
Here’s a little snapshot of what we created together, minus the memories to last a lifetime.
It’s no secret that I had a fantastic day with these two people on their lovely wedding day. Their zest and love for life and each other was palpable in the air around us, and there wasn’t one unsmiling face in the crowd to celebrate it all. It’s an honor to be a part of every special day that my client’s bring me in for, and this one was no different. Here’s a slideshow of my faves from the day. Thank you Ian and Jen, I can’t wait to capture more of your beautiful love story!
Early last year, when I embarked on a brand new project with my new friend, I felt like one long, lost soul. Life was chaotic and crazy for me, a mom of three young, hysterical, energetic, strong-willed ladies (read: stubborn, hard-headed, doggedly determined). I was trying with all my might to home school them, run my house, and a fledgling small business all at the same time. Oh, and also treat myself like a human being (as opposed to my self-martyring mom role I sometimes can play when I’m overwhelmed). Oh, and be a good wife! And friend! The time for me seemed nowhere to be found, and I was slowly folding inward with my introverted self wishing for more ways to express myself, my darkness. I was feeling trapped, claustrophobic, like I was keeping a part of myself locked up. “How can I get out of here?!?” I thought. The restlessness of my brain was just too much, and I just had no idea how to calm the beast. Do you ever feel that?
Anyhow, as most lost souls are found, I just kept walking the path of life, doing my best to navigate with the life skills that I had, and adding more in as I learned them. Thanks to said friend, I stumbled across some books by Brene Brown (if you haven’t read them, DO), and wow did she add to my skill set! I learned so much about vulnerability and courage and bravery and honesty, and I also learned painfully honest truths about my worthiness and self-esteem. After a great deal of reading and discussing with my esteemed friend, and several vulnerable interviews into our project, I was finally inspired to try a different form of creativity from my photography. I knew it had been brewing inside me. I knew I wasn’t doing enough, creating enough. I heart photography, believe me I do, but I also love to create in other ways; physical, hands covered in paint and glue and glitter that you can’t get off kind of creating, and I was missing out on that. Like my soul was craving it. My darkness wanted to be unleashed! Explored! It wanted me! We interviewed this watercolor and illustration artist, Jenna, from Mon Voir, and my mind was blown. (That’s her messy watercolor pallet up at the top.) I so much appreciated her vulnerability and courage to be so honest with us about the process of art and what it means to her. That the process of art, and what you learn about yourself during the process is what matters, not the outcome. She was incredible and inspiring. Thank you, Jenna! From there I dove in, and haven’t looked back.
After some research and getting involved in the creative community more, I found this really great community online called Get Messy Art Journal, and it’s been just incredible. The support of the creativity, and the process, and everything that goes on in between beginning a project to the final product, being an artist can feel like a lonely road sometimes, and they make it so much more fun. They also encourage you to art journal every day, or as often as you can manage. Which sounds impossible, and has been for me so far. It’s been really hard to fit it into my schedule, and I’ve really learned a lot about carving out art time for myself. Especially in this latest season of prompts they came out with, the Season of Lists! If you know me, you know that I am a lover of lists. I will spend my downtime making lists. It’s relaxing and fun for me. It helps me to feel prepared and organized and in the know. So when I found out that they were doing a season of lists, 30 Days of Lists over 6 weeks, I was so stoked! I was in for the challenge. And it was super difficult for me to keep up. I didn’t get to art journal every day, I would do a bunch of a week’s worth of work in one or two days after spending the week writing out the lists. But I gave myself grace, and tried my best to keep up, and get the most out of the process as possible. And it was wonderful, and I’m so proud of myself for finishing. And really, only a few days after the season has ended, so I wasn’t so behind after all! The process of making my beautiful, messy, tiny art journal was as freeing and cathartic as I thought it could be, and my darkness is pleased to be expressed in the process, not the outcome.
In the spirit of lists, and because I just got off of 6 weeks of writing the best lists ever, I thought I’d share my pearls of wisdom that I learned during the Season of Lists…in a list! Here it is:
I can create art purely for myself, without care of external input.
Creating something every day helps me to feel more human.
If I don’t create every day, I feel like I am missing a part of myself.
The world needs me to create my art. No one can create my art but ME.
I am unique.
My voice matters.
I will never be perfect, I will just be me.
I enjoy spending time exploring my darkness while creating.
Grace is very important to have for yourself so that you can give it to others.
Healthy self talk leads to better results than negative self talk.
Being a part of a community of people who also feel the need to create every day is inspiring and life altering.
When I create, I am a better person.
Without further ado, here is a Flip-a-gram of my little, mini-messy art journal for the Season of Lists…
I’ve been going through an artist’s struggle the past couple of years. And if you’re any kind of creative (you should be, we all are!), you know what I mean. I’ve been going through that constant cycle of “This is awesome. This is tricky. This is crap. I am crap. This might be ok. This is awesome.” And so it goes, round and round, each new cycle teaching me something more about my craft, my creativity, my darkness, my need to create. There’s this really great quote from Ira Glass that you can watch/listen to here that describes that artists struggle to a T for me. And so I keep on trucking. Every time I feel like my art is crap, I know growth is right around the corner. And I keep wading through the crap until I get to that feeling of “This is awesome!” once again. Because the artist’s journey is never over. There is always more story to be told. And I’m determined to be the author of that story.
The Lewis Family is a very special family in my life. They are, by and large, just like any other average American family, trying to live the dream. But they have something that sets them slightly apart from many families, and that is that they are all choosing to be a Forever Family, together. I think that is something incredible and amazing. This session came up for me when I was deep in my funk. Not feeling the flow of my art. But when I found out that they were finalizing their adoption, I couldn’t think of anything more joyful to capture. This family, for me, embodies grace, joy, patience and gratefulness. I think there is something very profound about intentionally choosing to be a parent, intentionally choosing to love unconditionally. It truly touches my soul, and I feel so grateful myself to have them in my life. We were able to meet for a very quick session before they headed out to the courthouse to finalize the adoption, and make these amazing kids officially a LEWIS! It was truly an honor to be a part of this day with them, and to be able to capture memories that I know will stay with them for the rest of their lives.
Here’s an overview of our short, but extremely joyful morning together. One of my favorite parts was when they first got there, and Michael RAN into my arms and hugged me, and I could feel his excitement and joy exuding from his little body. I don’t know if my heart could have withstood any more joy and gratefulness than I felt in this morning. Thank you Lewis Family for sharing it with me, and allowing me to tell this part of your story…
A new forever family jumping for joy! Congratulations, Lewis Family!
I never knew how much the saying “It takes a village to raise a child” was true until I had a few of those children myself. I’m three kids into this parenting game, and some (read: most) days I’m ready to scream out for my village (or whoever is wiling) to come and save me from the insanity that can be my chaotic house. Other days, I’m reaching out to my village to share in the joys and triumphs of my children, who make my heart so full I feel like it could literally burst sometimes. The village is important. Everyone needs one. When you become a parent, you’ll likely seek one out if you don’t already have one.
This particular village was a spectacular village. There was so much love and laughter and support, you could feel it surrounding you. See it sparking in their eyes as they looked at each other. It was quite a privilege to be let in to tell this part of their beautiful story. Best friends often go through everything together. Breakups, breakouts, bad clothes, bad relationships, bad jobs, college, roommates, more boyfriends, graduation, marriage, babies, the works! These best friends are no different. In fact, I got to photograph FIVE best friends, experiencing one of the best milestones you could ask for in life, having babies!! Ok, only 2 of those friends were actually pregnant, but those babies have a LOT of love coming their way. It was truly such a joy to spend time with these guys and capture this amazing time in their life.
Not so true to California weather, mother nature had us going for this shoot. It was POURING rain the morning of our first scheduled shoot day. It was less than ideal settings. As in, usually I’d cancel! But knowing this would be the only day we could have them all together for some group shots, we just went with it anyway. I’m so glad we did. We ended up doing 3 separate sessions, with 3 separate groupings of people. Enjoy a rather long photo montage (and commentary) on our time together!
I asked them what their fave pass time is with each other. They said singing. WHAT?? Please, serenade! And oh did they, with one of my favorite Journey songs!
As good women tend to do, they brought these two good man together. BFF’s.
Hold the baby, caress the baby…don’t drop the baby!! 😀 Dad’s having fun making some surprise pics for their ladies at the end of our rainy day!
So, it was so good that we immediately rescheduled the photos for the next weekend, because one mamma went into labor early! And baby boy Steck was born almost before I could even finish Mama Steck’s photos! These friends were entirely too adorable together. I couldn’t help but have a great time with them.
We were professionals at squeezing in as many shots as we could in this evening. We had some gorgeous light!
“…and she loved a little boy.” The Giving Tree. Love.
Several weeks later, we got the rest of the photos in! I couldn’t be happier that we were able to reschedule and get
all the photos in that these guys were hoping to get before their bundles arrived.
These love birds had some amazing chemistry!
Ahhhhh so much beauty with these ladies! A big thank you to Laurelyn, Tara, Greg, Josh, and Bria for allowing me to tell this part of your story. It was an honor. <3

They have been talking about each other from other sides of the Atlantic for nearly three years now.
They agreed to fight earlier this year, and by all accounts had an understanding before they both fought different opponents on the same night back in February.
However Carl Frampton and Leo Santa Cruz have never met in person.
Even when Frampton flew out to America early this month, Santa Cruz didn’t want to travel to New York to do a press conference, meaning both were denied that ‘size up’ opportunity and fight fans were denied any verbal back and forths.
However, with just four days to go until the massive Showtime broadcast World title fight Carl Frampton and the WBA featherweight World title holder have finally gone eyeball to eyeball.
Showtime, who will air the bout in America, organised a head to head on the top of the Empire State Building today.

Chosen One of the Day: Cool Spot
Maybe your favorite video game growing up was an adventure game filled with action. Maybe it was a story-focused RPG steeped in fantasy. Maybe it was a sports game putting you in the field in front of throngs of fans.
Mine followed a sentient soda logo as it hung out at the beach and stole hermit crab shells.
Cool Spot was a game released by Virgin for Sega Genesis and SNES that followed the 7-Up mascot as it...did...things...on a beach.
Its mission was clear.
Playing as the titular Cool Spot, you had to collect other spots which were much like you, the Cool Spot, but decidedly less cool (where are their white mime gloves? THAT SH*T IS COOL) and thus merely Spot. You had to free other Cool Spots from Cool Prison floating in Cool Time and Space and also at one point you're trapped in a giant 7-Up bottle and have to rely on air bubbles to get out like Charlie and Grandpa Joe burping their way down from Fizzy Lifting Drink. It's hella chill.
Also did you know that under their shells hermit crabs wear boxer shorts? It's true. I saw it in a nature documentary. A nature documentary called Cool Spot.
Ah the '90s: a magical time when children needed to be protected from potential tiny crab dongs but soda logos and blue hedgehogs could be as nude as the day is long.

I’m guessing you’ve seen plenty of memes and the like about how players should be – how much effort they should give, how they should be great teammates, how they should be self-motivated, how they should listen to their coaches. They tend to come from coach quotes.
What about quotes of players telling coaches how they should be?
Don’t see many of those, do you? Why is that?
No doubt, there’s a bunch of reasons. Some of it is a long culture of players not challenging coaches. Some of it is coaches placing blame externally rather than looking in the mirror. There’s definitely a big element of coaches thinking they understand playing better than players thinking they understand coaching.
I’m not placing any value judgments here, but it does all contribute to a situation where coaches, broadly speaking, are not sufficiently self-critical.
Enter this article from a recently former college athlete. It offers up a set of ways coaches can do a better job interacting with their athletes. They are as follows.
Mostly Positivity to Players
The basic idea here is that you should start with a positive approach as your foundation. There may be players you can yell at, but you need to know your players before you can make that kind of judgement. If you’re fall back is yelling, be prepared for it to fail.
Telling Your Athletes Their Role
This is basically about being honest with players and letting them know where they are at. If a player is a bench player, let them know, while also telling them how to increase their chances for playing time. And don’t leave it until right before the match starts to do so.
Avoid Showing Negative Emotions
In other words, be conscious of your body language. You might be doing a really good job of using positive language, as per above, but your posture, facial expressions, and movements might be screaming all kinds of negative things. We’re always saying something to our athletes. Best to make that what we intend.
Trusting Them on Game Day
This boils down to not being a “joystick” coach. You cannot, and should not, try to tell them what to do all the time. If you’ve done your job well during practice, you’ve taught them what they need to know. Let them get on with it. You wouldn’t want someone sitting next to you telling you how to coach, would you? They feel the same way.
Being Respectful to the Refs
How you interact with refs speaks to your character. Players look to their coach as a kind of role model. If you act in a way contrary to their views on good sportsmanship, they will lose respect for you. And if they don’t already have a well-formed sense of sportsmanship, your bad behavior could guide them in a direction it shouldn’t go.
A final observation
At the end of the piece, the author makes this suggestion.
If you struggle with some of these but have great program success and your athletes want to stay in touch with you years later, then you’ve done something that works.
While there’s value in this comment, especially the part about staying in touch, be cautious. As I wrote about in my series on drivers of success, sometimes coaches can be successful despite their coaching, not because of it. Also, the coaching landscape is strewn with the corpses of the careers of long-time successful coaches who simply failed to adapt to changing times.
By the way, it’s also good to know what motivates and demotivates your players.

French President Francois Hollande visited the Jerusalem graves of the victims of the attack on a Toulouse Jewish school on Tuesday, accompanied by Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu and members of the Sandler and Monsonego families.
Rabbi Jonathan Sandler, 30; his children Gabriel, 6, and Aryeh,3; and Miriam Monsonego, 8, were killed in March 2012 when radical Islamist Mohammed Merah entered the Ozar HaTorah school in the city in southwest France and shot at students and teachers.
The school slayings came a few days after Merah gunned down three French soldiers in two drive-by shootings from a scooter near Toulouse.
Merah was shot dead three days after the school shooting during a standoff with police. He had admitted to the shootings, saying they were in retaliation for Israel’s alleged treatment of Palestinian Authority Arabs.

Just recently, I was really craving for sushi -- oh, I dream of slices of mouthwatering salmon sashimi, the brightest orange ebiko (fish roe) and a huge platter of assorted mini makis. Paul, being the sweetest boyfriend that he is, agreed to drive all the way to Quezon City just to satisfy my sushi craving.
Just a word of caution though, when it comes to sushi and eating raw food items, be sure to dine only in reputable restaurants. This is to avoid getting unexpected stomach illnesses or worst, food poisoning.
For us, the best sushi can be found in Omakase. We used to be regular customers of their Libis branch and were delighted to find out that they just recently moved to a bigger and better location in Il Terrazzo in Tomas Morato, Quezon City.
Regulars of Omakase will be surprised and delighted with the new interiors of the restaurant. Contrary to the previous Zen-feel that we have grown used to, the new branch sports a modern Japanese interior that has more seating capacity.
Il Terrazzo is a big commercial establishment that houses a number of new restaurants and a supermarket at the basement. Parking is pretty easy because of the numerous spaces available inside and outside the complex. The restaurant was packed on a Thursday evening but luckily we were able to have a table right away.
We wanted to keep our dinner light so we skipped the donburis and focused more on their sushi offerings and appetizers. Here's a look at what's on our table:
This is one of our favorite dishes whenever we dine at Omakase. We love it so much that we have influenced quite a number of friends and family members to get this whenever they go to the restaurant. I love the fresh diced tuna sashimi over a bed of lettuce, drizzled with spicy Japanese dressing and topped with tempura flakes, ebiko and spring onions. If you are not a fan of spicy dishes, need not worry because believe me, it's manageable.
This platter is perfect for those who can't decide what to get. Since we love Omakase's Dynamite Roll which is a roll-up eel tempura maki topped with bits of spicy salmon on top, we also wanted to try their other sushi offerings. The Golden Blossom is similar to the well-loved California Maki but it has sliced avocado and shrimp tempura inside. The photogenic Rising Sun, on the other hand, has crabstick and cucumber inside and topped with a thin slices of raw tuna, salmon and avocado.
My sushi craving has been fulfilled and I left the restaurant with a happy smile on my face.
The new Omakase is located at the Ground Floor of Il Terrazzo, Tomas Morato, Quezon City.

There has always been a fine line difference in the concept of hostels and paying guest accommodation. Hostel accommodation applies to the much disciplinary stay which may or may not be a part of any vocational institutes. Like, there are many educational institutes which provides the hostel accommodation accompanied by strict discipline issues. Paying Guest also applies to an accommodation options but it has leniency as compared to hostels.
There are also certain similarities which gives an impression that the concepts of hostels and paying guest are same…Both of these cater to accommodation of individuals who are staying away from home either for academic or career pursuits which could be based on single or sharing occupancy…
Sharing of the Facilities
In hostels you are expected to share the facilities with others whereas in paying accommodation, you have the leniency to not share the facilities with others. You may have some more space for yourself.
As per as the cost of living is concerned, hostels appear more pocket friendly than paying guest. For instance, if you are considering hostels as well as paying guest accommodation in Mira Road the cost you need to bear for PG accommodation would be higher than the hostel accommodation in the same area.
Hostels provide you with more personal security, though there is less of that guaranteed for your belongings wherein, if you are in paying guest…you may have a cupboard allotted to you, where you can keep your luggage and baggage which ensures security of it, though in general paying guest scores low in personal one.
In hostels generally, food are served at particular point of time. There is a schedule for serving the breakfast, lunch and dinner and you need to be present during that time to avail the facility wherein food is not a mandate service offered to the individuals who are staying there. You need to arrange your own food and if you are availing the services for food too, then you need to pay extra for the same.
Hostels have a friendly ambience, since the landlord or landlady just leases out the premise to the tenants and there is a warden who is supposed to look after and maintain the discipline in the premise whereas in paying guest it is more like a family ambience where you are sharing the premise with the landlord or the landlady which gives a family like ambience.
In both the instances, there have been a strict disciplinary followed in timings. At night there is a cut off time, when the door or the gate of the PG as well as hostels getclosed and you have been expected inside before that. There are restrictions maintained for partying and calling friends for sleepovers since there could be space crunches or other issues.
To hunt for the best or the hostels in any cities across India, then you can check out Housing.com which provides amazing technological acumen supporting virtual tours and other details assisting you to shortlist your preferred PG or Hostels accommodation and depending on your requirement you pick your options…

Save time and money securing the right people for maximum impact in your business.
If you expected the food and beverage industries to be exempt from digital transformation, you’re in for a surprise. Technology is rapidly changing every industry and the supply chains which support them — and that includes how we purchase and distribute food. This is a look at just a few of the technologies changing this industry forever and for the better.
Amazon, whole foods and ‘Last Mile’ delivery
Every player in every supply chain on earth recognizes the “last mile” of delivery as one of their biggest challenges. Amazon threw the gauntlet when they purchased Whole Foods for $13.7 billion, in more ways than one.
As food companies all over the world look to shorten the distance between manufacturers and consumers, Amazon may well have beaten them to the punch with this acquisition. It means combining Amazon’s accessibility, popularity, and technology with the infrastructure of an already-successful food distribution platform.
What does this platform look like? With this acquisition, Amazon finds itself in the enviable position of owning more than 400 refrigerated warehouses. Each one of these is situated within 10 miles of 80 per cent of the U.S. population. So what’s the implication of this?
Remember that Amazon’s ultimate mission is to use their predictive analytics to anticipate and even ship customer orders before they’re placed. They’ve made an art of distributing inventory strategically among their distribution centres in order to cut shipping times. This is good for third-party companies that sell their wares via Amazon warehouses.
Now, bring the Whole Foods cold storage and distribution model into this and you begin to see the implications for a new kind of B2B and B2C food supply chain. Food manufacturers will be able to leverage Amazon’s newly acquired network of cold storage facilities, and their finely tuned shipping and delivery processes, to sell directly to consumers — albeit after giving a cut to Amazon. What Amazon currently does for third-party sellers of general merchandise, it will soon do for food and beverage companies.
Smarter logistics, redistributors and just-in-time delivery
The modern consumer craves greater variety and snappy convenience. This means the more than 16,500 companies engaged in food distribution will need to pivot to just-in-time delivery models in order to meet these demands.
This is where collaboration via technology comes in handy. Even with Amazon making a move in this industry, we may see a growth in the popularity of tech-savvy redistributors as food companies look for ways to cost-effectively get their products into as many markets as possible. As an example, Dot Foods uses smart route planning and logistics to consolidate food shipments which would otherwise be dispatched as less-than-truckload (LTL) shipments.
The effect of these kinds of partnerships means food companies can operate with much leaner inventory and send out smaller shipments of more niche products as demand dictates, versus sending large shipments of more generalized merchandise, less often, to save on freight costs.
Amazon offers one compelling proposition for food companies — and here is another, although they’re not mutually exclusive. Companies can use Amazon’s warehouses and delivery expertise to bring “niche” food items closer to the consumer, they can use technology-savvy redistribution partners to bring costs down in their existing supply chains or, more likely, both.
Blockchain, sensors, AI and the need for faster recalls
Technology is one of our best allies when it comes to responding to food safety issues and mounting recall efforts in a timely manner.
The recent romaine lettuce E. coli outbreak in the U.S. resulted in five deaths, 197 illnesses and 89 hospitalizations in 35 states. It took months to track down the origin of the outbreak to an Arizona facility, and all the while sales of romaine lettuce plummeted by an estimated 45 per cent. So what could technology have helped us do differently in this case?
IBM presents one solution focused on preventing foodborne pathogens from entering the supply chain in the first place. With current methods, it can take days to test food products for the presence of dangerous bacteria — but so-called “Crypto Anchor Verifiers” look to cut that timeline down to just seconds.
IBM proposes that food companies deploy these mobile sensors to test food products and record the results on the blockchain. This provides, simultaneously, a benchmark (in the form of a microscopic “profile”) for identical products on the market, as well as the means to trace each item back to its origin.
Machine learning, drones and improved crop yield
Each of these trends means it’s easier than ever for restaurants, retailers and individual consumers to get their hands on a greater variety of foods, faster than ever. It also means e-commerce has emerged as a means to distribute fresh and perishable goods — including produce.
Agriculture represents a $330 billion slice of the American economy. This industry is the first step in many of our food supply chains, so it makes sense to lean on technology to make it as efficient, eco-conscious and responsive to customer needs as possible:
- Agricultural robots can harvest produce and perform other tasks faster than human workers and help cut down on millions of dollars in spoilage annually.
- Footage captured by drones, and processed by machine learning algorithms, can help farmers come to timelier conclusions about soil health, crop rotation and the ideal time to harvest.
- Predictive analytics can help predict crop yield and plan agricultural activities with greater accuracy based on many variables, including changing weather and climate patterns and customer demand.
Whether on the farm — and very close to the source of our food — or in the last mile of delivery to restaurants, retailers and customers’ doorsteps, technology is here to change our food supply chains forever.
Amazon casts a long shadow in this industry now, but the technologies the retail giant uses to its advantage are increasingly accessible. Time will tell, but the food and beverage industry stands a good chance of becoming more, not less, competitive.

Lake Chad is the remnant of a much larger lake known as Mega-Chad which 22,000 years ago drained a greener Sahara and was three times the size of Lake Victoria, now Africa's largest lake, WWF noted.
"It is now the focal point of life in a huge expanse of arid Sahelian Africa. Technically best described as an inland delta, the new internationally protected wetland covers 2.6 million hectares vital to countless birds as well as endangered otters, gazelles and elephants. The Lake is also home to hippopotamuses and Nile Crocodiles."
Lake Chad basin is home to over 20 million people with the majority dependent on the lake and other wetlands for their fishing, hunting, farming and grazing. But the basin is recognized as highly challenged by climate change, desertification and unsustainable management of water resources and fisheries, according to WWF.
Since the early 1960s, rainfall over the basin decreased significantly while irrigation increased dramatically over the same period, according to the United Nations Environment Programme. "The lake is especially susceptible to climatic variability as it is rather shallow, with an average depth of 4.11 meters [13.48 feet]. As a result of decreased rainfall and increased water usage, the extent of Lake Chad decreased by 95 per cent over roughly 35 years," UNEP says on its "Atlas of Our Changing Environment"
"Lake Chad is one of the largest and most important of the vital watering points for migratory birds from Europe and west Asia that each year cross the Sahara and it is also where many of them stop and stay for the winter,
Nigeria has about 5 500 km2 (25 percent) of the area of Lake Chad, where 3 000 full-time fishermen are estimated to operate. Some 56 000 t of fish enter Nigeria from the lake each year, but the actual production from the Nigerian portion of the lake is probably only 28 000 t.

VillainROM 3.0 for Samsung Galaxy S 2
So that old thread was long... Very long... It had good memories, but it's time to move on to a new thread, as 10k posts is just too much, and there are some more changes this time round. First off, it's as usual, a CWM flashable zip file. But, in a slight change of direction in light of Ninpo and Netarchy's Ninphetamine kernel being more complete, version 2.0.5 is now included. That is newer than the version released in the thread, but it will be updated in due course.
So for now, here's what's new in Version 3.0
- Fully deodexed
- Introduction of Ninphetamine kernel into the ROM (version 2.0.5 with BLN etc) - Note that BLN doesn't work with the stock SMS app, but Handcent is fine. I will look at ways to trigger BLN from the Messaging app later
- Install the BLN app from the market to use this
- Removal of Diginotar root certificates from the trusted store, given they are about as secure as a paper bank vault.
- All the usual stuff, although VRTweaks will be added from scratch again, since this seems a newer and better base.
- Re-addition of SIP since Samsung thinks you should be deprived of it.
Additionally, this is a way to try out the official KI4 ROM, without the bootloader being touched, thus allowing the USB jig to continue to working. To re-iterate, VR never flashes radios or bootloaders, so is safe. Stock ROMs, and other custom ROMs which are ODIN flashed, or indeed ZIPs, can and do sometimes flash these things without telling you. Just be aware - Samsung knows about the USB jig resetting the counter, and is on it...
Install procedure, and other details to come in following posts.
Contributing VRTweaks to VillainROM
Iff you want your tweak in VillainTweaks (with full credits etc) then please PM LennyUK with a description, screenshot if you have one to hand and a direct link (xda attachment, dropbox or your own server) No file hosts please.
We will add them to VRTweaks, so users can install them without having to download files to their phone. Likewise, if users find nice tweaks, let Lenny know
VillainROM Installation Instructions
To follow these instructions we presume you already have access to Clockworkmod recovery, and are able to put the zip file onto the SD card, and flash it.
If you are coming from a ROM other than VillainROM 1.2 or above, then you should carry out a full wipe. In fact, you should be carrying out a full wipe anyway, but it's not strictly 100% necessary if you are just coming from the previous version.
Coming from Another ROM
Ensure CWM recovery is available, do a CWM/nandroid backup and titanium backup, and put the zip onto the root of the internal SD.
Enter CWM, carry out a factory reset, and cache wipe, and flash the ROM via "Install zip from SD" option.
Reboot the phone into VillainROM, bearing in mind the first boot may take some time on the boot animation.
To use BLN
Ensure you are using the included Ninphetamine kernel, and install this app from the market (free, paid version with more features available)

Spotify’s inventory bounced upward once more on Thursday, because of optimistic feedback from Guggenheim analyst Michael Morris.
Spotify’s renegotiations with the key labels will considerably enhance the corporate’s gross margins, in line with a be aware issued this week by Morris. The contract updates — which can even reportedly contain re-ups with Merlin — might shave Spotify’s royalty obligations by 2% when calculated in opposition to whole revenues.
That’s a significant drop, and one that would additional help Spotify in direction of its broader gross margin targets. According to business intel, Spotify should renegotiate with the ‘huge three’ plus indie powerhouse Merlin in the course of the latter a part of 2019.
“Importantly, we see Spotify as effectively positioned for continued gross margin enchancment as the corporate renegotiates its file label agreements in 2019,” Morris penned. “Specifically, we forecast that Spotify is positioned to cut back rights funds as a share of income by 2.zero% in 2019 because it pursues long-term gross margins of 30% to 35% (gross margin has been 24.5% over the previous 4 quarters).”
The optimistic opinion boosted Spotify’s inventory previous $184 on Thursday, a 2.36 level (1.three%) achieve. That’s a part of a broader ascent, with Wall Street insiders like Morris anticipating wholesome phrases from main label heavyweights.
Perhaps most significantly, Morris considerably upped his value goal on Spotify to $210 from $175. The analyst reiterated his purchase ranking.
Aside from stronger free money stream, the Guggenheim analyst additionally sees continued subscriber energy. Currently, Spotify is previous 81 million paying subscribers, although business debate is now centered on how a lot greater that may go. Morris expects “a continuation of usage-trend progress” based mostly on third-party information, regardless of heavy progress by Apple Music.
Sounds completely bullish, with $210 representing a theoretical all-time excessive. Back in April, Morris likened Spotify to Netflix, noting that the streaming music platform “evokes a Netflix-like promise of great world penetration potential.”
“Spotify seeks to ship most listening enjoyment to shoppers by comfort, curation, breadth of content material, and fee choices (your time or cash),” Morris famous. “The worth proposition to the artist is to strengthen the listener relationship by distribution, information entry, and compensation.
“Spotify’s deal with making a virtuous cycle for shoppers and artists and utilizing expertise to create curated experiences evokes a Netflix-like promise of great world penetration potential.”

You know an emotional hook is the best way to engage your target audiences at first, followed by reasoning, asks, etc. The heart leads, with the head following. That’s because all of us can easily relate – emotionally – to human stories and those pull us in and make us more open minded to the information or ask that follows.
But those of you whose organizations deal with difficult and emotionally-weighted issues — such as rape, eating disorders or domestic violence– have a real challenge in crafting that emotional hook. For many, the issues you’re diving into and making better for those who go through them are issues that folks just don’t want to talk about. Eyes wide shut!
The Challenge – Building a Base around a Difficult Issue
Jill Worrall, a nonprofit consultant I met recently — at theMarketing ByAssociation conference where I keynoted in Februrary — posed her huge “difficult challenge” to me and I hope you can help me guide her: Jill works with SAFE (SExual Abuse Family Education), an organization focused on reintegrating sexual offenders (including pedophiles) into society, and she finds it incredibly difficult to engage her target audiences in the cause. The issue makes them squeamish, so how could they possibly support the cause?
My immediate reaction to hearing about sex offenders is revulsion. What’s yours?
My Recommendation – Please Add Yours
My recommendation to Jill is to focus the organization’s messaging on the positive changes in the world our children live in, that will be made by the organization’s work with sexual offenders. That way the lead (and emotional hook) is positive), and the strategy (education, therapy, etc.) comes second. It’s far more likely that folks will get engaged through taking this approach.
In addition, she should:
- Focus on the likely values match between SAFE and its prospective supporters — a community where children can live safely, and parents can relax.
- Talk about success stories, focusing on the after.
- More ideas here: Communicating on Difficult Issues
What guidance can you share with Jill?
Please comment here to ensure she gets it! Thank you.

FAST FIVE: White House Forced To Dismiss Idea Of Abortion Tents In National Parks
As we noted yesterday, the likes of Elizabeth Warren and Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez have called for the Biden administration to immediately implement federal abortion services, with Warren suggesting tents could be erected in national parks.
ALEXANDRIA OCASIO-CORTEZ: “Open abortion clinics on federal lands in red states right now!” “Right now!” pic.twitter.com/sFvl101mSt – RNC Research (@RNCResearch) June 28, 2022 I just spoke with @ewarren, who suggested the Biden administration establish Planned Parenthood outposts on the edges of national parks.
“They could put up tents, have trained personnel — and be there to help people who need it.” “It's time to declare a medical emergency.” – Caroline Kitchener (@CAKitchener) June 27, 2022 At the weekend, Jean-Pierre said all options were on the table, however during a briefing Tuesday she appeared to dismiss the notion.
“And importantly, in states where abortion is now illegal, women and providers who are not federal employees – as you look at the federal lands – could be – potentially be prosecuted,” she added, noting there may be “dangerous ramifications to doing this.” Other Democrats, including Kamala Harris have suggested initiating slush funds to pay for women to travel out of state to get later term abortions where they remain legal.
Indeed, that was the instruction I received from the President of the United States,” Becerra also told reporters.


Applications of phasor measurements to the real-time monitoring of a power system
Barber, David Edward
MetadataShow full item record
This thesis discusses applications of phasor measurement units to power system monitoring and synchronous generator modeling. Adjustments to a previously developed PMU placement algorithm are described which observe generator and tie line flows explicitly and reduces the number of PMUs required for a system, still observing the major dynamic components of a system. This adjusted methodology leaves some buses unobserved. A method for estimating the state of the unobserved region is developed based on using constant admittance or constant current load models. These models are accurate for a small neighborhood around the operating point when they were calculated. To determine the maximum error expected for any given system estimate, an equation relating the maximum error in the voltages to the maximum change in load power is derived. Once the issue of power system monitoring has been presented, the application of PMUs to the synchronous generator modeling is explored. This thesis deals with the on-line identification of the generator transient model using a recursive version of the generalized least squares algorithm. Simulations have been performed to demonstrate the validity and difficulties with these methods.

If you're utterly desperate for a 32GB version, O2 exclusively sells it on contract (as opposed to SIM-free from the Play Store) for… £529. I'd wait if I were you. You would think the Big G would have learned its lesson last time round, after the miserable stock shortages that hamstrung the Nexus 4. That bargainous blower was 10 times more popular than the search behemoth expected -- so it hardly takes a genius to realise the sequel would be in demand. We can only speculate why this is the case, but don't forget Google's goal for the Nexus devices is to set the bar for other device makers -- keep them honest, essentially -- and not to make money. LG, which makes the Nexus 5, needs to sell its own phones (the 5 is based on the LG G2) and may have some clause in its contract enabling it to limit supply.

According to GT, Apple hasn't requested a certain production volume, but Apple has required that GT maintain "a minimum level of capacity." GT also says that the agreement will be financially beneficial to its operation. The big question, however, is what specific materials GT will produce for Apple. Sapphire quietly has been making its presence known in Apple products, first appearing as protection for the iPhone 5's rear lens. Sapphire is also used in the Touch ID fingerprint sensor in the iPhone 5S.

How many times in the past five years have you heard Barack Obama say that he wouldn’t raise taxes on middle and lower income Americans? I think if I got paid every time Obama made that statement, I’d be approaching the one percenter group.
After trying to hide around 20 tax increases inside Obamacare alone, it should be no surprise to learn that Obama’s IRS has just set a record for tax revenue collection in the month of April. In one month they took in $414.23 billion dollars. That’s the most ever collected in one month by the Infernal Revenue Suckers.
In fact, the IRS took in so much money that they had a monthly surplus of $106.8 billion. Yay! A surplus! Hold on, because last year they had a monthly surplus in April only to drop to a deficit of $38.7 billion dollars in May. Most likely, the same will happen this year also.
Not only did the IRS set a record for revenue collected in April, but they also set a record for tax revenue collected in the first seven months of the 2014 fiscal year that began on October 2, 2013. Their seven month record topped $1.735 TRILLION. Federal income tax accounted for $823 billion of the record revenue taken in.
Before you start leaping for joy, you need to know that in the first seven months, the federal government still had a deficit of $306.4 billion. By the end of the fiscal year, September 30, they expect to have a total deficit of $650 billion.
If you want a breakdown as to where the majority of the federal money has gone to date here are the top 4 expenditures for the first seven months:
- $528 billion to Dept. Health and Human Services (Medicare & Medicaid)
- $521 billion to Social Security payments
- $427 billion in payments on national debt
- $341 billion to Defense Dept.
If Congress would stop giving billions of dollars to countries who hate us, that $650 billion deficit would be lowered. We also need to stop rebuilding mosques in the Middle East. I wonder how many millions we could save if we closed down our military bases in Iraq and Afghanistan and brought our troops home to secure our own borders?
I just went to USA.gov to see what all government agencies and departments I could find to shut down. You may be surprised to find out that there were 34 listed just under the letter A. Among those I found about half dozen that could be shut down and save money.
Under the letter D, I found the following departments that could easily be eliminated:
Department of Education
Department of Energy
Department of Homeland Security
Department of Labor
Department of Transportation
I’m sure that a group of accountants and businessmen could easily run through the lists of departments and agencies and slice enough to change the $650 billion deficit into a surplus that could go to paying down the national debt. In fact, if I were president, I would bring in such a group to analyze the federal budget with the instructions to recommend a balanced budget like they would do for a business. We need to take the finances out of the hands of Congress and the White House and put it in the hands of business professionals.

New Holland at FIMA 2016: an edition with many awards and innovations
- New Holland presence at Fima and 2 Fima Technical innovation awards + Spain’s Best of Specialised Tractor title
The 39th edition of FIMA 2016 will be remembered as the edition of records. The famous International Agricultural Machinery Fair, which was held from 16 to 20 February in Zaragoza, Spain, closed after hosting more than 227,000 visitors and is considered one of the main fairs for the agricultural sector in southern Europe.
It was not possible to miss New Holland's stand when visiting the fair. Covering an area of 2068 m2, New Holland welcomed the public, presenting many new products, which were previewed in Europe as well as technologically innovative interactive presentations. The innovations included, at the centre of the stand, the multi award-winning T7 Heavy Duty (Machine of the Year 2016, AE50 awards), which was also present in the Blue Power version. An interactive App explained the T7.315, presenting the models of the range from the customer point of view, guiding them along a path of discovering the main features, with images, video and 3D systems.
Other important products of the brand were presented, such as the Braud 8030L, whose Blue Cab™ 4 cab received the FIMA 2016 Technical Innovation award: an animated 3D video explained its operation. Also the Triple-Clean™ cleaning shoe, which improves the cleaning ability of the combine harvester by 15%, received the FIMA 2016 Technical Innovation award. Finally, the T4LP tractor received the title of Spain's Best Specialised Tractor delivered by the Spanish Agriculture Minister Isabel Tejerina, during a deep stand visit. The winner of this specific award is determined by votes cast by both the public and a jury comprised of trade press and technical experts. Manufactured in Jesi, Italy, the new T4LP Series is highly versatile and has been designed to work in olive groves and in mountainous areas where a low centre of gravity and wide track stability are required to work on steep slopes.
As regards harvesting, visitors were able to learn about the new forage harvester FR650 Forage Cruiser and the conventional combine CR7.90, CX8.70, which was also presented with the corn head.
Thanks to VR1, the On Board360 App was able to "virtually transport" visitors directly on the new CX8 conventional combine or the T7 Heavy Duty tractor in the field, for a 360°, full-immersion experience.
Riccardo Angelini, Business Director Spain Market for New Holland Agriculture and Chairman of the FIMA 2016 Organisational Committee declared: “Our commitment has started to bear fruit, with record numbers: from the number of visitors to the number of brands present, this fair has become a meeting and reference point for the agricultural industry.”
In addition to the flash-mobs at different moments of the day, the brand also organised a meeting point at a famous bar in the historical centre of Zaragoza for an unforgettable after-fair event.
