Week 11-12 (5/14-5/27) theme for Art as the Message
In February, Trump’s AG, Jeff Sessions, reversed the Department of Justice’s plan to phase out the government’s use of private prisons.
This week, Sessions sent a memo to all federal prosecutors instructing them to fill the empty beds in private prisons by pursuing the “most serious, readily provable offense” for their cases. Many of these offenses carry mandatory minimums.
Once again it is time to speak out against the Prison-Industrial complex and the inherent racism built into our “justice” system.

Rock Band Unplugged for PSP Leaks, Could Cause PSP Glitches
Rock Band Unplugged for the PSP has reportedly been leaked- weeks before its official street date.
Apparently the leaked game seems to be causing a number of PSP glitches, including wiping the PSP's game folder and causing the PSP to freeze.
To quote: Some gamers have found that their PSP's GAME folder is wiped after the exit the pirated version, while others have reported the same thing happening once the PSP is power cycled.
Meanwhile others are claiming to experience trouble playing music or having their PSP hang unexpectedly since loading Rock Band Unplugged.
Obviously SlashGear does not condone software piracy, and recommends that to avoid any issues with your PSP you wait until Rock Band Unplugged is officially released. The game will hit shelves on June 9th, priced at $40.

Why in the world is the Denver Regional Council of Governments wasting time and resources on an enterprise as thoroughly deluded as the Western High Speed Rail Alliance, which formally announced its existence last week?
The brainchild of public agencies in four states — Arizona, Colorado, Nevada and Utah — the rail alliance believes “the future mobility of people and freight in the West depends on high speed rail lines.” Yet in supporting this dubious thesis in their opening press conference, officials misstated so many elementary facts as to cast doubt on whether they’d studied the issue at all.
An introductory video contained the first whopper. After explaining that in the future, “most of the fastest growing states will be in the West” — true enough — the narrator went on to claim that “for nearly a half century the primary focus for passenger rail has targeted the development and funding of Amtrak’s Eastern corridor, an area losing population.”
Says who? According to the Census Bureau, the only states that lost population this decade (through July 1, 2008) were North Dakota and Louisiana, the latter because of a natural disaster. People have been fleeing Michigan since 2005, too, but it’s not exactly in the Eastern corridor. New York and New Jersey together boasted a joint gain of more than 750,000 residents this decade, and New York still is home to more people than the total population of the four member states of the alliance.
To compound the demographic muddle, the general manager of the Regional Transportation Commission of Southern Nevada, Jacob Snow, told reporters that “our densities here in the West are very high and probably much higher than those areas referenced in much of the rest of the country.”
Seriously? The most recent Census data on densities appear to date from 2000, but they can’t have changed that much. And while Snow is right that Las Vegas’ population per square mile surpasses that of a number of cities in the booming West and Southeast, it doesn’t come close to those of old-line urban centers such as Boston or Washington, D.C. — let alone places like Manhattan, Brooklyn or Hoboken. Meanwhile, Phoenix and Salt Lake City — two of the major destinations in the alliance’s scheme — are low density by anyone’s reckoning.
High-speed rail between Denver and Salt Lake, given the geography, would probably be the most expensive project of its kind ever built and require many billions of dollars in public subsidies. Yet when asked about the economic viability of their plans to link cities in the four states, Snow blithely mentioned the profits of the Central Japan Railway Co., which serves one of the densest, highly populated corridors in the world. Sure, that’s relevant! If Snow and his colleagues are so confident that operators here can count on similar profits, why are they fixated on federal money to study the corridors?
The executive director of the Denver Regional Council of Governments didn’t help matters. Jennifer Schaufele told reporters that high-speed rail will “particularly reduce congestion in major metropolitan areas.” Is she confusing it with light rail? Is she under the impression that congestion in metro Denver is substantially caused by travelers on their way to DIA or to cities in Utah and Nevada?
The entire press conference had a surreal quality, as officials praised high-speed rail for intercity travel in a region that simply lacks the population base to support it without massive construction subsidies and, probably, ongoing ticket support, too.
With Washington sinking in red ink and metro Denver still awaiting rail lines that RTD can no longer deliver at the promised cost, the last thing this region should be touting is another project with “Financial Sink Hole” written all over it.

The bankers' union, Finsec, says the ANZ bank should have consulted with its customers over a major review of its branch network.
The bank announced plans for the review and called for voluntary redundancies.
Finsec staff conducted an informal questionnaire of 332 ANZ customers leaving branches in Auckland, Hamilton, Wellington and Dunedin over three days last week.
Of those questioned 93% said they didn't support a reduction in frontline staff in ANZ branches, and 96% said branch staffing cuts would have a negative impact on customer service.
Finsec's Campaigns Director, Andrew Campbell, says ANZ has said it will not be consulting customers during the branch review process.
He says the bank should reconsider that position, as customers have expressed very strong concerns about the impact of staff reductions.
ANZ was unavailable for comment.

Join the debate on Local v Comfort. I enjoyed this article from the NY Times entitled “When Local Sourcing Means Aisle 12.” It has comments and thoughts from chefs across the country about their favorite comfort foods, and how that generally equates to processed, packaged foods. It is a wry look at how these chefs espouse local, seasonal, farm to table, etc, yet their fallbacks tend to have an extended shelf life and impossible-to-pronounce ingredients.
Some examples include American cheese slices, Fritos and Saltines. Land O’Lakes American cheese

Michael Chiarello says that he loves Skippy peanut butter and cannot stand organic peanut butter. That actually surprised me. I love pure peanut butter, made only with peanuts and salt. Actually don’t care if it’s organic or not, just don’t want the hydrogenated oils in Skippy and other live-forever peanut butters.
It also pokes fun at some restaurants’ attempts to make homemade versions of “classic” processed foods, like ketchup. Seriously, why mess with perfection when you have Heinz? Even I’m not in favor of that. I’ve had “homemade” ketchup before in a restaurant and it is usually a disaster. Not worth anyone’s effort to prepare, and certainly not appreciated on this end.

Sukhjeevan Sharma,, INVC,, Sirsa,, After several hours of struggle, the divers pressed into service by the police succeeded last night in fishing out the body of a minor girl, who allegedly became a victim of rape and murder by two youths at Dabwali town in Sirsa. The body was handed over to the family members of the victim after a postmortem in the General Hospital, Dabwali. Two youths allegedly took away a four-and-a-half-year old girl playing outside her house in Kabir Basti of Dabwali, raped her and threw the unconscious victim in a pond of sewage disposal. The incident occurred on the evening of January 25 and since then, the family members of the girl had been searching for her. The family informed the police when an 8-year-girl, who was playing with the victim when she was lifted, identified one of the accused, Vicky. Upon interrogation, Vicky told the police that he and his friend Chhiller had kidnapped the girl, raped her in a state of intoxication and them thrown the girl, who was then in an unconscious condition, in a pond filled with the town’s sewerage waste.
The police has arrested both the accused : With the daylong efforts of the divers, the body of the girl was recovered from the pool. After the divers failed to recover the victim’s body throughout the day on Sunday, the police put into service motors to pump out water from the pond. Dabwali Deputy Superintendent of Police Puran Chand Panwar said that Vicky was married and both he and Chhiller were drug addicts.

Google has integrated its pay streaming television service YouTube TV directly within the native YouTube app on Roku devices, the company announced in a statement on Friday.
The integration comes as Google and Roku prepare to continue their carriage dispute over the YouTube TV app for a second week.
Late last month, Roku told customers that Google might pull its YouTube TV app from Roku’s app store once its carriage deal with the company expired on April 30.
At the time, Roku said the issue involved non-financial terms that Google wanted to impose, including a demand that would force Roku to modify certain hardware in its streaming gadgets. Google later fired back, saying Roku was misconstruing their demands and engaging in heavy-handed tactics.
Roku eventually removed the YouTube TV app from its Channel Store, leaving customers with no way to install the service on Roku’s streaming boxes and smart TVs. The app was not removed from Roku devices where it was already installed, but Roku warned Google could eventually pull its support for existing installations at a later time.
On Friday, Google seemed to challenge the notion that they wanted to stop supporting YouTube TV on Roku altogether. Instead, Google says Roku users who subscribe to YouTube TV can now stream its channels through the native YouTube app, which is still available to download from the Roku Channel Store.
“This update will be available to all YouTube TV members on Roku over the next few days, and we will expand to as many devices as we can over time,” a YouTube TV spokesperson said in a note to customers. “We’re still working to come to an agreement with Roku to ensure continued access to the YouTube TV app for our mutual customers. As of right now, existing YouTube TV members still have access to the YouTube TV app on Roku devices.”
Google is also allowing Roku customers to “cast” YouTube TV using Apple Airplay 2 or Roku’s native casting protocol on devices that support either feature.

Rail traffic was still severely disrupted in France on Sunday due to a strike by controllers which forced the SNCF, the national company, to cancel 60% of its trains.   ;
Like the day before, on the high-speed TGV network as on the interregional network (Intercités), only 4 out of 10 trains were in circulation on Sunday, an SNCF spokesperson confirmed to AFP .
At the Paris Roissy-Charles de Gaulle airport station, the tracks dedicated to TGVs were deserted at the start of the day. The first train was announced for 1:36 p.m., followed by four others in the afternoon.
Surrounded by his three suitcases, Marc Kufess expressed his annoyance: arriving at 9:30 a.m. from Togo, he did not discovered that on landing the existence of the strike, and the cancellation of his 11:24 a.m. train for Mulhouse (east).
SNCF management announced on Friday that “new meetings” would take place next week with trade unions and controllers, who are calling in particular for better recognition.
Several unions, which have supported the movement, have filed a strike notice for the Christmas and New Year weekends, in order to put pressure on the SNCF.
Faced with fears that this movement will disrupt the end-of-year celebrations, the Minister Delegate for Transport, Clément Beaune, called on Saturday for “collective responsibility”. “Let's work in the coming days to avoid this (…) I will do everything at my level,” he assured.
The almost 10,000 SNCF board managers, including nearly 3,000 work on the TGV and Intercités, have an essential function in terms of traffic and passenger safety. Without them, the trains cannot run.
Beyond salary issues, controllers feel “mistreated”, and demand better consideration and an improvement in their working conditions , explained Saturday on RMC Fabien Villedieu, SUD Rail union representative.


Over the weekend, a Thomson Airways Boeing 787-8 Dreamliner suffered a failure in one of its massive GE turbofan engines over the Atlantic. The airliner, traveling from the Dominican Republic to Manchester, England, was an hour and a half into the nine-hour flight. The jet, full of vacationers returning to the U.K., safely diverted on its remaining engine to a remote airport in the Azores Islands.
Instances of an airliner losing an engine are obviously not unheard-of. It can and does happen. Most of the time, the pilot diverts and no one is injured.
However, there have been occasions in which pilots chose to fly on to their destination instead of turning around.
In 2005, British Airways Flight 268, routed to London, lost one of its four engines while taking off from Los Angeles International Airport. Instead of returning to LAX, the pilot and his Boeing 747-400 continued toward Heathrow Airport. But because of unfavorable winds and operating conditions that caused the plane to burn too much fuel, the jumbo jet didn't have the gas to reach London and made an emergency landing in Manchester.Long-distance and transoceanic flights have traditionally been flown by three- or four-engine wide-body airliners. This is because when it comes to the engine count on an airliner, aviation thinking dictates that there is safety in numbers.
But as modern turbofan engines have become more reliable, engine failures have become far less common. As a result, most airlines have turned to twin-engined mini-jumbos that are more fuel-efficient.
These days, the three-engine airliner has gone the way of the dinosaur, and the four-engine jumbo jets that once dominated the skies are well on their way toward extinction.
But engine failures do still happen. As terrifying as they may be for many of the passengers, though, losing one engine on a twin-engined airliner like the Thomson Airways 787 isn't as serious as one might think.
When an aircraft is flying without one of its engines, it tends to fly at a lower altitude and work the remaining engine(s) harder. This makes the plane less fuel-efficient and reduces range. However, the vast majority of twin-engine long-haul airliners can perform this maneuver with no significant reduction in capabilities.
Before a twin-engine airliner is allowed fly long-distance routes over large bodies of water or through uninhabited regions like the Arctic, it must be certified by the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) for ETOPS or Extended range Twin Operations.
For example, the Boeing Dreamliner — like the one flown by Thomson Airways — is certified for ETOPS-330. This means that the aircraft can fly routes that take it as far as 330 minutes (five and a half hours) of single-engine flying time from the nearest viable airport.
Other twin-engine airliners, like the Boeing 777, are also certified for ETOPS 330. Airbus' popular A330 has been certified for 180 minutes of ETOPS flying, while the company's coming A350 is currently seeking 420 minutes of ETOPS certification.

(Pocket-lint) - A new image of what is purported to be the Samsung Galaxy S III has turned up online. It follows weeks of rumours and speculation as to when the phone, already confirmed by Samsung, is going to launch and a number of other "leaked" pictures.
Turning up on social sharing news site Reddit, the poster claims that the handset in the scan is the new flagship phone from Samsung. And that's great. Good for them. But, it is hard to tell whether this is the real deal or not.
While there is plenty to like here, such as the incredibly thin bezel, large screen and thin design, we can't help thinking that the two-tone colour design is very different from what we've seen from Samsung before.
That said, the official design team - or maybe just the fake mock up artist - has worked hard to include several design traits already seen in the current Samsung smartphone line-up. That includes the long, thin home button as found on the Samsung Galaxy Note and the Samsung Galaxy S II, and the addition of five icons (also found on the Note) in the dock at the bottom of the screen.
As for the 22 May date on the screen, this is the first we've heard of such a mention - the previous "leaked" images showed 22 March.
The final clue, though, might be in the reference to "Weber Shandwick". Samsung has worked with the PR company in the past - although, that's currently not the company's US or UK PR agency for smartphones, local or global.
What do you think? The real deal this time? Let us know in the comments below...

The mills consisted of two floating rafts: on the main one, nearest to the bank, were located the millstones inside the characteristic small house, often with a cross on the top. Between the two rafts was supported the bladed wheel. The working principle is shown in the animation carried out at the Technical College Meucci in Rome. The rafts were moored to the banks by long chains; a masonry ramp and a wooden footbridge allowed access to the bank (pict. E1 e A3).
In every mill four workers were normally employed: two "loaders" that brought the grain and the flour with beasts of burden, a "servant" that worked at the millstone and was assigned to repairs and a generic "boy" for various services.
In a mill about 4500 kg of grain per day were ground and the production was daily recorded by the food administration; we have this data from 1823 to 1845 (pict. D1).
The Roman millers located the religious see of their corporation, "Romana Molendinariorum", in the S. Bartolomeo church on the Tiber Island, building a chapel decorated with images of their activity (pict. E9); a plaque still commemorates one of the many restorations of the chapel (pict. D2).
The mills obstructed the normal water flow of the river and often the strength of the current broke the moorings and dragged the mill downstream with disastrous results. As early as the middle of the 1700s it was proposed that they be moved downstream from the town and in 1870 the Public Works Ministerial Commission included the floating mills among the causes of the Tiber floods in Rome. After the big flood of December 1870 and the successive construction of the embankment the Tiber mills definitively disappeared.

Many small businesses start out as small operations listing handmade or test products on websites such as eBay and Etsy, or launching a holiday let through Airbnb. But when does online selling become a business?
For HM Revenue & Customs (HMRC), this is a big question and one it is answering by targeting online transactions across retail, holiday lets and auction sites to ensure it doesn’t miss out on valuable tax revenue.
The Treasury has said it anticipates £860m [pdf] will be recouped in the next four years by ensuring the new generation of online businesses pay their full share of tax. HMRC is able to investigate retrospectively (typically up to six years) if they suspect trading has occurred.
Thousands of sellers across the UK can be forced to pay disputed tax or outstanding tax, subject to an inquiry. In a previous crackdown, one eBayer received a two-year prison sentence after £1.4m in undeclared tax was discovered during six years’ trading online.
The Finance Act 2016 gave the organisation powers to collect bulk information from internet companies on self-employed sellers it believes are failing to declare income. HMRC’s new £100m Connect computer system gathers information from government and corporate sources to provide accurate profiles of our personal income.
HMRC can obtain account data from PayPal – the online payment company owned by eBay – from smartphone app stores run by Apple and Google, and from holiday comparison websites and a host of other online retailers.
Even if you’re selling second-hand items or homemade crafts, HMRC will see it as a commercial venture if it can prove you are doing “anything in the nature of trade”, defined by any of the following:
- You intended to make a profit rather than sell items for enjoyment or to raise emergency funds.
- There are a number of similar transactions in a short period of time.
- You cannot prove the goods gave you a “pride of possession” before being sold.
- The online transactions replicate an existing type of business, such as a clothing retailer.
- Items are modified before selling them to achieve a greater profit.
- Items are sold at a fixed price in the same way as a shop or auction house.
- Money was borrowed to buy an item that could only be repaid upon selling the item.
- Assets are sold on quickly after acquisition.
- Items were bought to sell rather than received as a gift or inheritance.
The basic rule is that any earnings above an individual’s tax-free personal allowance of £11,000 are taxable if the money made is considered to be a business profit.
If your hobby is deemed to be a business, you must declare any profits within a self-assessment tax return and, if your taxable turnover exceeds £83,000 within a year, you must also register for VAT and make VAT returns.
If you receive an HMRC letter saying it thinks you are running a business and have failed to declare this on your tax return, make sure you have all the facts and records of all transactions. Reply promptly and use the checklist above as a useful guideline.
If you don’t, you’ll receive an automatic tax charge, where HMRC makes its own calculations on tax due and demands full payment within three months. You will also be liable for additional interest and penalty charges.
It’s good to share, but be aware that the new sharing economy brings new rules and potential pitfalls, especially as the 31 January self-assessment deadline looms on the horizon.

During the course of Good Money Week, I attended three sessions, and at each one the topic of greenwashing was on the agenda.
The director of ESG at the Financial Conduct Authority even covered it in his keynote speech at Good Money Week, and indeed the FCA has just issued its consultation on a package of measures to tackle greenwashing.
In a bid to clamp down on greenwashing, the FCA today (October 25) proposed measures including investment product sustainability labels and restrictions on how terms like ‘ESG’, ‘green’ or ‘sustainable’ can be used.
The US SEC recently fined an asset manager for falsely implying that some of its funds had undergone so-called ESG quality reviews.
It seems clear that greenwashing is a big issue.
ut what exactly is it, why is it so important, and what can be done to combat it while we wait for the FCA's proposals, which they intend to publish by the end of the first half of 2023?
Greenwashing is not a new phenomenon. It was first identified in the 1960s, with the name arising in 1986 (in relation to an oil company - imagine that).
The FCA defines greenwashing as:
- "Marketing that portrays an organisation's products, activities or policies as producing positive environmental outcomes when this is not the case.
- "Making claims that could confuse or mislead a client, and possibly their adviser, seem unwise given the recent history of mis-selling scandals, yet the phenomenon persists."
It seems fair to assume that a fund labelled 'ESG Climate Change' would be unlikely to hold oil majors in its Top 10, and I believe advisers and investors are likely to feel the same.
Whether or not this fits a strict definition of greenwash, this genuine example strikes me as likely to confuse anyone seeking sustainable investments.
This is not to suggest that funds that invest into fossil fuels (or armaments or tobacco to include other sustainability issues) are the problem; it is those that present a marketing face to the world through the name of the fund, that do not align with an informed view of the underlying holdings.
The phenomenon is not confined to fund names.
There are asset managers that state on their website that "the importance of ESG factors is core to our investment process, therefore our entire MPS offering is ESG-focused in line with our ESG policy."
Or: "We invest in companies that are not only current sustainability ‘leaders' but also companies that are looking to improve their ESG impact."
Yet, within their fund's holdings one finds tobacco manufacturers, a major global arms manufacturer, and fossil fuel companies.
However, the manager is not breaching their stated investment process, so is this greenwashing?
This brings me to the issue of meaningless statements attached to funds, such as "ESG is integral to everything that we do" or "We are aligned with a transition/positive/impact pathway".
Such statements tell you nothing informative about the funds' approach to ESG or environmentally sustainable investment.
Equally unhelpful are jargon-laden statements such as "our ESG strategy also includes an avoidance of controversial weapons".

It is with alarm that I read and hear about what is happening in the Northern Hemisphere regarding Covid-19. The numbers of infection and death are spiking daily and add that to all the rumors flying around in South Africa about going back into lockdown, the cause for concern is real.
As I am busy typing this article a pop-up on my phone has just stated that our President has denied that a move back to Level 3 is imminent. Sigh of relief from me!
I have just received the annual Retirement Reality Report 2020 distributed by 10X Investments. The report is based on findings of the 2020 Brand Atlas Survey which tracks and measures the lifestyles of 15.1million economically active South Africans.
What intrigued me most, is that with all the articles, news in its various forms, documentation distributed by the Financial Service Providers and financial education that is, or maybe I need to rephrase that to, should be taking place in the workplace, more than 60% of those polled said that they knew little or nothing about their employer provided retirement fund or were not interested in it. This is remarkable as quite a large portion of the employees cost to company goes towards these benefits.
Here are some stand out points from the report.
- 49% do not have a retirement plan.
- Nearly 80% of the 46% who said that they did have a retirement saving plan accepted that they would need to keep earning an income after they had retired. Taking our runaway unemployment rate into account, it is hard to imagine how this will be possible.
- Only 6% of those polled said that they have a thought-through plan which they are executing.
- According to StatsSA in their information released in 2019, 49,2% of South Africa’s total adult population of 35,1 million live below the upper-bound poverty line. I am sure that this figure has changed somewhat due to the Covid-19 pandemic.
- As we have been preaching for the last 35 years, retirement planning is a life-long event beginning with your first pay cheque. Yet only 29% of those polled said that they realized that it would take 40 or more years to plan for a comfortable retirement.
- There is a perception disconnect regarding what actual retirement will look like. 75% of the respondents worry about having enough money to live on post-retirement and 77% expect to need some additional income, yet 68% anticipate that they will be able to maintain their standard of living. Obviously, this does not make sense.
- For women it is even worse. According to StatsSA, women earn approximately 30% less than their male counterparts on average. There are three other elements which makes this even worse.
- Careers are interrupted during pregnancy and the child rearing years;
- Life expectancy is longer for females than it is for males and retirement savings will have to last longer;
- In the event of divorce (the South African divorce rate is extremely high), women will often have to cash in their portion of their spouse’s retirement fund to make ends meet;
- Only 2% of the women polled said that they were doing well financially;
- 32% of the women polled said that they saved cash. However only 13% were investors compared to 22% of men. Investing means putting money into a well-diversified, high-equity portfolio;
- 43% of the respondents had never been a member of a corporate retirement scheme and of those who had been and who had left their employment, only 7% preserved their share of the fund;
- Of those who stated that they are on a corporate retirement scheme, only 40% said they had a good understanding of the scheme, 35% said they knew a bit about it, 14% said they had no idea and 11% said they trusted their employer/fund manager to deal with the choices and they had no idea as to what they were.
There is a paragraph in the report that really struck home. It reads “For most, retirement is a vague concept that looms in the distance, mostly ignored and rarely in focus until suddenly it is upon them. A longed-for moment for many, the eagerly anticipated unshackling from fulltime employment and the prospect of more leisure time can quickly be overtaken by worry and a sense of futility brought on by a lack of routine, of purpose and adequate income.
In the end, much of the longed-for free time is spent fretting about unexpected bills and money management.”
And to add to the problem; when constructing a retirement plan, please take into account the capital amount that will be needed to provide for medical cover. I have come across many people who are forced to downgrade their medical cover and even lose it simply because the monthly cost is eating into their capital at an alarming rate.
As space for this column is limited, I have only taken out a few points from the report. If you would like a copy, please let us know by e-mailing us on firstname.lastname@example.org and we will e-mail it to you.
2020 has been a year of huge stress for most. We have seen businesses collapse, unemployment numbers accelerating, people becoming destitute and unable to feed their families and desperation lurking at every corner. Crime is increasing alarmingly and the end of the Covid era is still far away.
In business there are only two ways to increase profitability. Increase turnover and cut costs. And so, it is with individuals too. It is time to cut costs. My late father-in-law was a wise man and one of his sayings that is more valid now than ever before is “to spend money is easy and not a science but to save and grow money is an art”.
It is now time to take stock, to budget and to see what can be cut from the monthly expenses. However, do not forget to plan for retirement and for those who have already retired, look long and hard at those expenses.
From all of us at Morebo, we wish you and your families a safe festive season and hope that 2021 will be a better year for all in our beautiful country.


The League recognizes the importance of finding ways to get around Tahoe without a car - more car trips means more pollution for Lake Tahoe. Tahoe's decades-old transportation problems are complex, and even though smart people in Tahoe have been working on solutions to traffic congestion issues for a long time, there has been little improvement. Meanwhile, the Lake suffers. We want to see on-the-ground projects advanced now to inform long-term solutions for the region.
This month, we presented a pilot bike share program to decision makers at the Lake Tahoe Summit to show an example of an on-the-ground solution that is successfully providing residents and visitors with an alternative to their private vehicles. We also helped steer the conversation at recent meetings between California and Nevada officials towards testing new and innovative transportation options. One outcome of these meetings is a special task force, chaired by the League, that will explore additional transportation pilot programs for Tahoe.

The Case of the Danish Prince
by Miles Kington
The Skinhead Hamlet
by Richard Curtis
directed by Wesly Savick
at the Hasty Pudding Theater
Fridays and Saturdays through May 2
SHAKESPEARE CAUTIONED THAT "Brevity is the soul of wit," a dictum taken to heart by the American Repertory Theatre's Late Night Cabaret crew. The two parodies of the Bard they are offering weekends at the Hasty Pudding Theater together run less than hour long; still, at $5 a head, it's more yuk-per-buck than has been seen on a Boston stage for a long time.
The Case of the Danish Prince, clocking in at under 15 minutes, sends Sherlock Holmes (James Andreassi) on the trail of the many murderers who have shown up in Shakespeare's work. The intrepid detective joins the hunt when Hamlet, sporting a Scandinavian accent worthy of the Muppets' Swedish chef, hops in to voice his suspicions regarding his father's untimely death. With Watson (Samuel Sifton) at his side, Holmes hardly gets to the bottom of things, but the game is afoot for the much sharper play to follow.
The Skinhead Hamlet is precisely what it sounds like: a telling of the classic tale transported into the idiom of British skinhead punk rockers of the late 1970s. The play opens with Hamlet (Dean Norris) spray painting the misspelled setting--"DENMAK"--on the wall. This Hamlet spends his time fighting, swilling beer and watching television, so, apropos of his offspring's habits, the Ghost (John Bottoms) grabs his attention by pre-empting an episode of Wheel of Fortune.
Scrupulously following the action of Shakespeare's play, The Skinhead Hamlet nonetheless observes the aesthetic standards of its modern setting. Going far beyond the Bard's request for "brevity," playwright Richard Curtis has provided the most laconic dialogue in memory. Hamlet's famous--and, in a bad production, interminable--soliloquy is reduced here to eight words. In the economical vocabulary of Curtis' leather-clad characters, a particular unprintable word suggesting the sexual act makes up half the dialogue, to hilarious result.
A student production of these plays would undoubtedly seem juvenile and possibly annoying, but director Wesley Savick and his cast have an unerring sense of timing. All the performances are good, particularly those of Norris and Benjamin Evett as Laertes.
The Case of the Danish Prince and The Skinhead Hamlet are offered through a tortuously-named subdivision of the American Repertory Theatre--"A.R.T./New Stages Presents: Late Night Cabaret"--which aims to give students of the A.R.T.'s fledgling theater institute something to do. Perhaps the masters of the company, too long burdened by endless productions of little humor, can learn something from their spirited pupils.

One thing that I have to say is the drink during happy hour 4pm-8pm is cheap and nice. (Only $3 for all well drink).

Pretty good food and value considering location just a few blocks from Madison Square Garden; Only complaint is the fried rice, which they use brown rice in and is not too flavorful.
Posted by Div on 08/03/2006
This is certainly one of the cleanest Chinese restaurants I've ever been to. Food is excellent with a vast menu selection, especially for the bucks you pay for it. Great place to dine in or hang out after work.
Posted by a new , new yorker on 07/13/2006
I cant stand having a craving for chinese food coming to new york and ordering just to have my hopes and my appetite ruined. I just moved here and after looking at all the places on this site and ordering from some really bad really greasy places i decided not to let myself become unmotivated. I had a craving last night ordered from this place and BOOM The future of chinese take out is here! Take it from a man who orders almost every night... This is the chinese place stick with this one . So happy with the quality.. great food! Nice and honest people, 5 star from a man who ( yes ) Im chinese.
Posted by Mac & Fitch on 07/10/2006
We decided to try a new place close to our work and found a real diamond in the rough. We both had the General Tso's Chicken lunch special which made us get out of our seats and scream "Chef Yu!" We then started a Congo line around the restaurant and rejoiced one of the best meals in a very long time. Top it off with a Coke on the rocks and a wonderful Wonton Soup to start and you might hace the kind of spended afternoon that we had.
Posted by Anonymous on 06/29/2006
This place is my new favorite! I've tried just about everything on the menu and they are all delicious. I really love the General Tso's tofu and all the appetizers! They have a wonderful happy hour with half off drinks as well. The service is outstanding; the food comes out quick and the waitstaff is extremely friendly. I highly recommend this restaurant.
Posted by chineselover on 06/28/2006
Ordered from Chef Yu for the first time after reading the posts here. Glad I did. I am a fussy chinese eater and can immediately tell if the food tastes cheap and greasy. This was an excellent value for the money. The delivery was extremely prompt (under 20 min) to W31/bway. Order summary: BBQ duo - ribs were juicy and meaty, duck was a bit bland and id skip it next time. General Tsos Tofu was great, though i would have liked a bit more crispy coating. Dry Sauteed Shredded Beef was also a good call, though i am not crazy about celery. Lastly, lomein was chinatown quality, though some places do bigger pieces vs more shredded ones, though texture of noodles and beef was just right.

Hi, I did a search, but nothing came up. I am looking for some unique dining experiences.
For example, the ninja restaurant or trailer park.
I also looked at Aspen since they have some interesting dishes, but their current menu looks boring. I would love some really unique NYC restaurants!


Federal Lands Access Program:
The Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) and the Utah Department of Transportation (UDOT) are working together to bring roadway improvements to SR-149 between US-40 and the entrance to Dinosaur National Monument. These improvements include widening travel lanes, improving shoulder width, and replacing the Brush Creek Bridge.
The FHWA and UDOT started work on the SR-149 Road Improvement Project in January 2018.
Project Quick Facts
• Project Length: 4.2 miles
• Widen travel lanes to 12 feet wide in each direction
• Add roadway shoulders
• Replace the Brush Creek Bridge
• Roadway improvements will enhance safety for drivers and cyclists, improve mobility, and improve the condition of the road surface
The funding for this project comes from a federal program called the Federal Lands Access Program (FLAP). The goal of this program is to provide access to federal lands for all modes of transportation. Because FLAP funds can only be used for improving access to federal lands, this project did not take away funding from other projects in the area.

THE Prime Minister, Peter O’Neill, recently opened the new standalone Tuberculosis Clinic and Pathology Laboratory at the Port Moresby General Hospital.
In his address, he restated that healthcare remains one of the most important priorities of the government.
“We have continued to invest in healthcare and allocated the biggest resources out of our budget over the last five years,” Mr O’Neill said.
“Our government has been the only one that has fully funded the National Health Plan and this is delivering great change for our people.
“There are many challenges in our country, particularly in the delivery of rural and remote healthcare services, we have limited resources, we all have to work with what we have and deliver for our people.
“It is important that we continue to manage these challenges together and be able to overcome the issues that are confronting our communities.
“Dealing with tuberculosis is a very large issue for many communities right throughout the country, but we must overcome this challenge.
“TB is curable, but we must ensure people who contract the disease seek treatment and see their medication through to the completion of the course.
“The increasing number of patients that are going to get treatment for TB means we are making strong inroads in patient care, but we have to do more.
“People who contract TB and do nothing about it have to realise that their families are at risk of also contracting this infectious disease.
“That is why facilities such as this and getting information out to our communities and our families’ right throughout the country is very important.”
He congratulated the board and management of the hospital for the changes that they have delivered in recent years to deliver an outstanding and a continually improving level of healthcare service.
With the opening of the new clinic and laboratory, the hospital can treat TB patients immediately by analysing from results from tests it obtains from the new laboratory.

(1 Samuel 18:12 NLT) Saul was then afraid of David, for the LORD was with David and had turned away from Saul.
This morning I continue our series entitled, “Standing on a Word from God.” This is Part 59 of the series and Part 31 of the life of David.
Yesterday we saw how trouble followed David’s triumph. King Saul, a man who once loved David for harp playing and who greatly appreciated David killing Goliath, quickly turned on him and attempted to kill him. In the middle of a rage of anger, while being tormented by an evil spirit, Saul turned a spear at David twice, wanting to pin David to the wall. But David avoided both attacks.
So where did this leave David and Saul’s relationship? David was the hero, Saul was the king. David was the new kid on the block, Saul was the seasoned veteran and sovereign leader. Saul should not have been intimidated by David whatsoever, but he was. Our text says, “Saul was then afraid of David, for the LORD was with David and had turned away from Saul.”
No matter how popular David was, Saul was the king. I think it is hard for us (Americans) to truly understand the king-dynamic. There is a huge difference between the Presidents and Prime Ministers of today, and the Kings of yesteryear. Saul was a sovereign. He had no checks or balances. His word was the supreme authority. With a single word Saul could bequeath land, forgive debt, overturn a legal sentence, or pronounce a death sentence. No one questioned the king. No newspaper articles could question his methods. No bloggers could dissect his decisions. No news anchormen/women could criticize his ways. Saul was like a ‘little g’ god to the people. And this man — a man who seemingly had it all — was intimidated and afraid of a young boy who had the grace of God upon his life.
So what does this mean to you today? A few things:
- Some people will be intimidated by the grace of God on your life. David experienced this and I have as well. Sometimes you will run across people who feel intimidated by what God is doing in you and through you. There is not much you can do about it, other than pray for them. The issue is not with you, it is with them. Just continue to run your race, with the benefit of God’s grace, and make sure you operate in love and humility. If you keep operating in love, and you remain humble (not prideful), you will continue to enjoy the abounding benefits of God’s grace. And while others may not like it, they won’t be able to do anything about it. Their poison can never stop your purpose. Since God is FOR you, He is more than the entire world against you!
- People of authority, who are over you, may despise God’s favor on your life. Being intimidated is one thing, but Saul got to the point where he hated David. The truth is David never did anything wrong to Saul. All he did was go out of his way to bless Saul. Saul did not hate David because David was doing something wrong. Saul hated David because of his own insecurities. The issue was with Saul, not David. My point is that sometimes people you don’t even know will hate you. Or, like in this case, people of authority, who are over you, might develop bitterness and resentment toward you, simply because God favors the work of your hands. See, the favor of God can cause you to experience uncommon, unusual, atypical success. David was only 17 years old, but he was a national hero and people were chanting his name. This can happen today in boardrooms, conference rooms, meetings, video calls, business transactions, and etc. When God favors you, some people will love you for it. Other won’t. Sometimes those who resent you for it are people authority. But don’t worry. Remember, God is the ultimate authority. They might think they have power, but they can’t curse what God has already blessed!
- Never allow the insecurities of others to cause you to change who God made you to be. David knew Saul had a problem with him, but he did not change. Sometimes you might feel the urge to ‘tone down’ who you are, because others don’t like you or you might feel the urge to ‘tone up’ who you are because of pride, because of all the attention you are getting. Here’s the point: if you are operating in God’s grace and you are being blessed, there will be some people who have a problem with you, even if you do nothing wrong to them. Just don’t allow their discomfort to cause you to get outside of God’s will. Continue to run your race, with God’s grace, without getting too low, or too high. This is how you endure for the long haul. This is how you hold on long enough to become the man/woman God called you to be, so you can receive the fulfillment of every promises God made you before you die. You are in-it to win-it. You are not moved by people, you are only moved by God!
Father, I thank You for this teaching. I know who You made me to be and what You have called me to do. I have the grace to run my own race and I declare that I will. Along the way there may be people who develop their own insecurities, because of what You are doing in my life. Or there may be some who because of those insecurities, develop bitterness and hatred toward me, to the point where they actually attack me. I declare, by faith, that I shall keep my eyes on You. I will not allow the internal struggles of others to change who I am. I know their attacks will be unfruitful and I shall pray for them as I continue to run my race, with Your grace. I shall not be moved by others and I will never allow the attention I get to ever cause me to cross over into pride. I will also not allow the pressure from others to cause me to operate any less than who You have called me to be. I am who I am by Your grace and I won’t allow anyone to change that. I declare this by faith. In Jesus’ name, Amen!
This is Today’s Word! Apply it and Prosper.


Montañez: Possible UTLA Candidate Against Garcia
Hillel Aron | December 4, 2012
Your donation will help us produce journalism like this. Please give today.
According to multiple sources familiar with the fast-approaching LAUSD school board race, the competition for District 2, currently held by School Board President Monica Garcia, is likely to attract the most energetic attention from UTLA, the powerful teachers union.
The candidate who may be the biggest challenge to Garcia is Annamarie Montañez. The cousin of former State Assemblywoman Cindy Montañez, she’s considered an early favorite to capture the endorsement of UTLA, whose House of Representatives meets on Wednesday to vote on endorsing school board candidates.
“I feel confident” said Montañez in a recent conversation with LA School Report, when asked about the possibility of getting the union’s endorsement. “We had our interviews a week and a half ago. I feel very positive about the reception we got.”
Montañez, 40, was born and raised in Alahambra and now lives in El Sereno. An adult education teacher who began as a classroom aide, according to her online bio, she first became interested in school politics when LAUSD was considering cuts to adult education.
Concerned about the possible cuts, she and some of her students went to a board meeting to raise objections.
“I wasn’t too happy with the reception we got from the current school board,” she said. “I think there’s changes that need to be made.”
Montañez also discussed the need for charter schools to have more oversight.
As depicted on this LAUSD map, District 2 stretches as far west as Wilshire Park, down past the 10 Highway, and out to Garfield High School.
If UTLA does manage to unseat Garcia, it would have a nominal majority on the board, although Dr. Richard Vladovic’s vote is far from a sure thing.
Just as important, however, would be the symbolic value of unseating the current School Board President, a leading advocate for charter schools and much of the “reform” agenda.
Montañez says she’s collected 650 signatures so far – she’ll gather a bit more before the December 5 deadline, in order to make sure that she has the 500 valid signatures needed to qualify for the ballot.

Top DVD Releases for the Week of January 6 2009
Here is a list of the DVD Releases for the week of January 6 2009:
Synopsis: Ride high on the Pineapple Express, the outrageously hysterical blockbuster from Judd Apatow, the director and screenwriter of Knocked Up. A lazy stoner (Seth Rogen) is the sole witness to a murder by an evil drug lord (Gary Cole) and the corrupt cop (Rosie Perez). Marked for death, he runs for his life, dragging his dazed dealer (James Franco) and his supplier (Danny McBride) with him on a hilarious smokin’ adventure.
Cast: Seth Rogen, James Franco, Gary Cole, Rosie Perez, James Remar, Danny R. McBride, Amber Heard, Craig Robinson, Ken Jeong
Recommendations: It’s a comedy and it’s actually funny. Turns out Pineapple Express was way better than what I thought it would be and I wouldn’t mind watching it over again.
Synopsis: It is the not-too-distant future. Thousands of satellites scan, observe and monitor our every move. Much of the planet is a war zone; the rest, a collection of wretched way stations, teeming megalopolises, and vast wastelands punctuated by areas left radioactive from nuclear meltdowns. It is a world made for hardened warriors, one of whom, a mercenary known only as Toorop, lives by a simple survivor’s code: kill or be killed. His latest assignment has him smuggling a young woman named Aurora from a convent in Kazakhstan to New York City. Toorop, his new young charge Aurora and Aurora’s guardian Sister Rebeka embark on a 6,000 mile journey that takes them from Eastern Europe, through a refugee camp in “New Russia,” across the Bering Straight in a pilfered submarine, then through the frozen tundra of Alaska and Canada, and finally to New York. Facing obstacles at every turn, Toorop, the killer for hire, is tested like never before, in ways he could never have imagined–as he comes to understand that he is the custodian of the only hope for the future of mankind. For the first time in his life, Toorop has to make a choice: to make a difference or walk away and save himself. Too bad it came on the day he died. (Source: Yahoo! Movies)
Cast: Vin Diesel, Charlotte Rampling, Gerard Depardieu, Michelle Yeoh, Mark Strong, Lambert Wilson
Recommendations: I did hear bad things about the movie, but since I haven’t actually seen it yet, I’m curious, hence the must rent recommendation.
Synopsis: The life of Joe, an anonymous assassin, takes an unexpected turn when he travels to Thailand to complete a series of contract killings. Joe, a remorseless hitman, is in Bangkok to execute four enemies of a ruthless crime boss named Surat. He hires Kong, a street punk and pickpocket, to run errands for him with the intention of covering his tracks by killing him at the end of the assignment. Strangely, Joe, the ultimate lone wolf, finds himself mentoring the young man instead whilst simultaneously being drawn into a tentative romance with a local shop girl. As he falls further under the sway of Bangkok’s intoxicating beauty, Joe begins to question his isolated existence and let down his guard–just as Surat decides it’s time to clean house. (Source: Yahoo! Movies)
Cast: Nicolas Cage, James With, Charlie Yeung, Philip Waley, Shaun Delaney, Shahkrit Yamnarm, Panward Hemmanee, Dom Hetrakul
Recommendations: I feel the same way about Bangkok Dangerous that I feel about Babylon A.D. Haven’t heard great things about it, but still want to see it. What can I say, I’m an entertainment whore.
Synopsis: Set in New York in the sweltering summer of 1994, THE WACKNESS tells the story of a troubled teenage drug dealer, who trades pot for therapy sessions with a drug-addled psychiatrist.. Things get more complicated when the kid falls for one of his classmates, who just happens to be the doctor’s daughter.
Set against the backdrop of the greatest year in hip hop history, THE WACKNESS is a coming-of-age
story about sex, drugs, music–and what it takes to be a man.
Cast: Ben Kingsley, Josh Peck, Famke Janssen, Mary-Kate Olsen, Olivia Thirlby, Method Man, Aaron Yoo
Recommendations: I have heard great things about The Wackness and have been waiting to see it.
Synopsis: In DISASTER MOVIE, the filmmaking team behind the hits “Scary Movie,” “Date Movie,” “Epic Movie” and “Meet The Spartans” this time puts its unique, inimitable stamp on one of the biggest and most bloated movie genres of all time — the disaster film. DISASTER MOVIE follows the comic misadventures of a group of ridiculously attractive twenty-somethings during one fateful night as they try to make their way to safety while every known natural disaster and catastrophic event — asteroids, twisters, earthquakes, the works — hits the city and their path as they try to solve a series of mysteries to end the rampant destruction. Taking aim at everything and everyone, from “Indiana Jones” and “Iron Man” to Amy Winehouse and “High School Musical,” DISASTER MOVIE lampoons the blockbuster movie, pop culture icons and public figures along the way as Jason Friedberg and Aaron Seltzer satirize everything as only they can. (Source: Yahoo! Movies)
Cast: Carmen Electra, Matt Lanter, Vanessa Minnillo, Kimberly Kardashian
Recommendations: Been there, done that. Seriously how many of these movies can they make?
Synopsis: A pair of veteran New York City police detectives are on the trail of a vigilante serial killer. After 30 years as partners in the pressure cooker environment of the NYPD, highly decorated Detectives David Fisk and Thomas Cowan should be ready for retirement, but aren’t. Before they can hang up their badges, they are called in to investigate the murder of a notorious pimp, which appears to have ties to a case they solved years before. Like the original murder, the victim is a suspected criminal whose body is found accompanied by a four line poem justifying the killing. When additional crimes take place, it becomes clear the detectives are looking for a serial killer, one who targets criminals that have fallen through the cracks of the judicial system. His mission is to do what the cops can’t do on their own–take the culprits off the streets for good. The similarities between the recent killings and their earlier case raise a nagging question: Did they put the wrong man behind bars? (Source: Yahoo! Movies)
Cast: Robert De Niro, Al Pacino, 50 Cent, Donnie Wahlberg, Carla Gugino, John Leguizamo, Dan Futterman, Trilby Glover, Rob Dyrdek
Recommendations: I know it’s a Robert De Niro and Al Pacino movie, but it just doesn’t look that great to me.

Right-wing rally, counter-protesters clash
Small scuffles broke out Saturday as police in Portland, Ore., deployed “flash bang” devices and other means to disperse hundreds of right-wing and self-described anti-fascist protesters.
Just before 2 p.m., police in riot gear ordered people to leave an area downtown, saying demonstrators had thrown rocks and bottles at officers.
“Get out of the street,” police announced via loudspeaker.
There were arrests and some injuries, but it wasn’t immediately clear how many. A reporter for The Oregonian/OregonLive was bloodied when he was struck by a projectile. Eder Campuzano said later on Twitter he was “okay.”
Demonstrators aligned with Patriot Prayer and an affiliated group, the Proud Boys, gathered around mid-day in a riverfront park.
Hundreds of demonstrators faced them from across the street, holding banners and signs with opposition messages such as “Alt right scum not welcome in Portland.” Some chanted “Nazis go home.”
Confirmed Ebola cases rise to 13 in Congo’s latest outbreak
The number of confirmed cases in Congo’s new outbreak of the Ebola virus has risen to 13, including three deaths, the health ministry said late Saturday.
The World Health Organization has warned that this new outbreak of the deadly virus in North Kivu province poses a particular challenge as the region is a “war zone” with several active armed groups and thousands of displaced people.
The nearby city of Beni and heavily traveled borders with Uganda and Rwanda also complicate efforts to contain the disease, which is spread via contact with the bodily fluids of those infected, including the dead.
Congo announced the latest outbreak last week with four confirmed cases, a week after declaring the end to a previous outbreak in the northwest with 33 deaths.
Prosecutor to erase convictions in strip-club touching cases
The city attorney for Columbus says he’s willing to erase convictions of those prosecuted under a state law prohibiting strip- club employees from touching customers.
The Columbus Dispatch reports City Attorney Zach Klein made the offer last week after announcing last month that Columbus would no longer file such cases and dismissed charges against adult film actress Stormy Daniels and two Ohio women.
Klein has since dismissed the pending cases of eight other women charged with touching.
Daniels, whose legal name is Stephanie Clifford, was arrested after her appearance at a Columbus strip club in mid-July. She has achieved worldwide fame from her claim of having sex with Donald Trump in 2006.
Klein says women previously convicted under the no-touching law can file motions to withdraw their guilty pleas.
Execution date set for Ohio man who lit fire that killed son
The Ohio Supreme Court has set an execution date in four years for a man convicted of setting a fire that killed his 3-year-old son.
Death-row inmate Michael Webb doesn’t dispute the 1990 blaze in southwestern Ohio was arson, but he denies starting it. Webb says investigators using now-discredited methods came to the wrong conclusion about where in the house the flames broke out and says the correct determination points to someone else as the culprit.
The court on Friday set a July 19, 2023, execution date for Webb. A message was left with his attorney. State and federal courts have upheld his conviction and death sentence.
Investigators say Webb set the fire to kill his family, collect the insurance and start a new life with his mistress.
Air Force authorities probe mysterious 911 call at Dayton base
Air Force authorities are trying to find out what prompted a 911 call that caused a chaotic active- shooter reaction on a sprawling Ohio base.
Spokeswoman Marie Vanover at Wright-Patterson Air Force Base near Dayton said Friday the investigation “is ongoing,” and that there’s no timetable yet for its completion. She said no injuries have been reported from the Thursday incident.
During an extensive search after the call to base security, a security team member shot a locked door during a room-by-room sweep of the base hospital as people on the base with some 27,000 military and civilian personnel were locked down.
Authorities said the call came during training that included an active-shooter scenario in another base area at least a half-mile away, but a link wasn’t clear.
Ohio issues licenses to seven medical marijuana processors
The Ohio Department of Commerce says only seven companies have met the state’s minimum standards to process plants into marijuana-infused products for use by people with physician recommendations.
Cleveland.com reports the companies were given provisional licenses Friday. Another six could receive licenses after background checks are completed.
Three of the seven processors also have licenses to grow medical marijuana, although none has been given approval to planting seeds. Only three cultivators have permission to grow plants to this point.


Inside the Beltway
Congress returned this week and took up a bill rejecting the Iran deal. The bill did not pass, which paves the way for the deal to go forward. The threat of a government shutdown is hanging over Congress with only a few legislative working days until the new government fiscal year begins on October 1. Conservative Republicans have threatened to filibuster if Planned Parenthood is not defunded in the budget but Republican Party leadership is eager to avoid being blamed for another government shutdown and is conscious of the party’s position heading into a major election year. A short-term continuing resolution is likely in the next week to allow Congress to reach a deal. Other major programs are set to expire through the fall and the Highway Trust Fund will run out of money on October 29.
ESEA is still being discussed amongst education staffers and we expect to see more public news about a conference committee in the next couple of months. Meanwhile, education advocates are focused on appropriations and other bills waiting in the queue such as the Higher Education Act.
In the Press
As school leaders know, with rising demands and declining funding, parents and students are asked to shoulder more of the financial burden for supplies. School supply lists may be growing, but the National Retail Federation expects back-to-school spending to decrease this year over last year.
This paper looks at the roots of the Common Core State Standards and how they came to be a major talking point in the Republican presidential primary. A complete 40-page history and analysis documents the Common Core’s roots in the Reagan era and how it emerged from a populist idea to a conservative punching bag.
The State of the Charter School Movement, Bellwether Education
In this new publication, Bellwether Education examines the state of the charter school movement, which over the past decade has seen tremendous growth. Today, nearly 3 million students attend charter schools nationwide, representing 6 percent of total K–12 students. Charter schools continue to be controversial and this paper seeks to bring to together data from a variety of sources to paint a comprehensive picture of charter schools today and their major challenges.

Canadian police say that ten people have been killed and at least 15 others injured in two remote communitiesin Saskatchewan on Sunday, reported DW, quoting news agencies AFP and Reuters.
"We have located 10 deceased individuals in 13 locations in the community of James Smith Cree Nation and Weldon, Saskatchewan," Royal Canadian Mounted Police Assistant Commissioner Rhonda Blackmore told a news conference.
"Several additional victims have been injured, 15 of which at this point have been transported to various hospitals," she added.
The James Smith First Nation is an indigenous community north of Melfort, Saskatchewan. The community with a population of 2,500 declared a local state of emergency, while many Saskatchewan residents were urged to seek shelter locally.
Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau called a mass stabbing "horrific and heartbreaking." "I'm thinking of those who have lost a loved one and of those who were injured," he tweeted.
What we know?
Blackmore said police received a call about a stabbing at the James Smith First Nation at 5:40 a.m. (11:40 a.m. GMT), which was quickly followed by calls reporting more stabbings.
She said authorities believe "some of the victims were attacked by the suspects and others were attacked indiscriminately."
Police launched a manhunt for two suspects. They named Damien S. and Myles S. as the two suspects and said they were driving a black Nissan Rogue.
Following reported sightings of the suspects in Regina, the provincial capital more than 300 kilometers (185 miles) south, the alert and search has been extended to neighboring provinces of Manitoba and Alberta.
Canada's history of mass killing incidents
The country's worst mass killing in modern times occurred in Nova Scotia in April 2020, when a gunman who disguised himself as a police officer killed at least 16 people during a 12-hour rampage.
In January 2017, a man opened fire during evening prayers at a Quebec City mosque, killing six people and injuring five. In December 2014, a man in Edmonton killed eight people, including his wife, before killing himself.
In December 1989, a gunman killed 14 students, all female, and wounded 13 at the Ecole Polytechnique in Montreal before committing suicide.

--Here for the PaperHaus Blog Hop? Click here--
It's all things Flower Box Collection at Doodlebug Designs this week!
For my project, I altered an inexpensive wooden frame that I found at Hobby Lobby.
For the wooden frame, I used a brown chalk-style ink pad to distress the wood.
I found it best to use a sheet of vellum to create a template for the inset of the frame;
trace onto desired patterned paper and cut out.
For added dimension and interest, I trimmed out the inner edge with a strip of patterned paper followed by a border of Bumblebee Doodle Twine (I use a Fine-Tip Glue Pen for this). I added a row of washi tape and strip of paper to the bottom to mimic a ground full of Spring flowers.
For the focal point, I layered two different sizes of doily die-cuts and then embellished with
several of the Doodle Pops and cardstock stickers from the Flower Box Collection!
A ribbon hanger to the top and it's ready for hanging.
Can you tell that I'm just a little ready for Spring? :)
Many more Flower Box projects to check out at the Doodlebug Blog.
See you tomorrow!

text: February is chilly in Virginia as cold conditions persist across the state. The days are mild to cold, and the nights are freezing. Roanoke and Staunton in the mountain region register temperatures between 26°F (-3.3°C) to 49°F (9.4°C) range, while Charlottesville and Lynchburg in the Piedmont region are between 27°F (-2.8°C) to 49°F (9.4°C). Mathews in coastal Virginia has average temperatures in the 28°F (-2.2°C) to 50°F (10°C) in February. Blizzards occur rarely but stall normal life due to poor visibility and heavy snowfall. Driving conditions are challenging with slippery roads due to sleet and ice. The ocean waters are cold, but the beaches see a fair number of people. Whale watching is popular during the winter when the humpbacks arrive on the Virginia coast. Expect cold fronts, especially in the mountains, and a warmer southern part of the state than the north. Warm winter coats are necessary for the entire month even though the day temperatures become mild by the second half of February in Virginia.

Last week, the girls performed Beyonce’s hit “Work It Out” from Austin Powers In Goldmember for ‘Movie Night’ theme of the show. Before their performance, one of the girls passed out backstage but quickly recovered and performed live on television.
“All I’m gonna tell you is, I’ve done this a lot of years… that was under the circumstances, one of the most incredible things we’ve seen on this show. Unbelievable, outstandingly good,” said Simon Cowell.
This week, 4th Impact and the remaining acts will perform about love and heartache. Will they impress the judges and the audience again?
What do you think of their song choice this week? Sound off in the comment section below.
