Nick Sanders set off on his trip around the world hours after receiving an MBE from Her Majesty the Queen. It’s the eighth time he has circumnavigated the globe on a motorcycle, making him one of the most travelled motorcyclists on the planet.
The trip will take eight months to complete on his Yamaha Ténéré 700, with no back-up other than his mobile phone and a credit card. He will cross some of the world’s major deserts including the Atacama, Great Australian, Gobi, and Thar, as well as mountain ranges such as the Himalayas, Andes, Atlas and Urals. Sanders is raising money to support our work. He’s hoping people will be inspired by his trip and get involved in his mission by donating and following his progress.

Moments #3 Long Beach to Apache Indian Road
1 Dec, 2019
It was a 14 lane highway that led me into the City of Angels. Wind turbines flapped about helplessly against the onslaught of this linear hell. I was going to meet my sponsors Yamaha in Long Beach and after a night in the Hyatt Regency I hung around the harbour when the deed was done. At a junction by the lights the absence of large volumes of traffic took me by surprise and I could hear a symphony of halyards slap against a crowd of masts. Boats many of which would never face a breeze let alone an ocean crossing but the fact they might is an adventure in the telling...read more

As your digital music collection grows, keeping your music organized by tagging (labeling) your music becomes more and more important. Before I began using iTunes as my digital music "organizer", I used only two programs for my music: WinAmp and MP3Tag. WinAmp was and still is an excellent music player and Mp3Tag has continued as the supreme music file tagger available. It's a small freeware (donations welcomed) app that handles tagging a small or large digital music collection with ease. It's reliable, simple to use and very powerful so if you want an application for music tagging, MP3Tag is the one.
First of all tagging your digital music is useful to organize everything. You tag for genre (rock, rap, 80's etc), for artist, album name etc. This will typically be done for you already if you downloaded from some online music sites, but others might not have the correct descriptions or tags for the files. It's likely you might want to customize your songs to your genre classifications. Also, if you ripped the songs from your CD's you will want to add all the tags before adding to your music player or even to iTunes. Even though every one of your MP3 players including iTunes, WinAmp, and Windows Media Player all have the capability to tag your music, you will likely want a quick, easy and powerful standalone application that will quickly do the job independently of your music player.
What does Mp3Tag do?
Mp3tag edits the tags, renames the files based on the tag information, replaces words and/or characters based on the tags and file names, imports and exports tag information, creates play lists, adds album covers and more. MP3tag has the ability to check the online freedb database and Amazon.com for tag information. One of the new features of versions 2.35 to 2.38 include the ability to search for and add the album art to the music file based on the album name.
First download MP3Tag HERE and install it.
Select the directory with your digital music files (File-Change Directory) and select the folder with your music.
MP3Tag will then load all of your music files ready to be categorized.
From this point you simply select your file and update the title, artist, file name and any other tags you want to edit
One of the really nice features of Mp3Tag is the conversion feature. Here you can key off of the filename to create tags: Say your file names are all formatted like: amy winehouse-rehab-back to black.mp3. You can do a convert file name to tag where it adds tags in this way: artist-song name-album name. It then can populate one or more songs based on the file names. You can do the same thing in the reverse way to change the file name based on the tags. There are unlimited ways to use the convert feature including cleaning up file names, tags etc in a more automated way.
MP3Tag supports MP3, aac, flac, ape MP4, M4A, OGG Vorbis, OptimFROG (ofr)(ofs), Musepack (mpc), AAC, wma, Monkey's Audio(ape), FLAC, True Audio and a bunch of other file types. I highly recommend this free program. If you have digital music that needs to be organized, give it a try.

The indications that a man is actually sliding in love are frequently immediately in front of you, but occasionally you might think he’s doing offers or leading upon.
The experience of sliding crazy differs for all, and many have experienced they yet others have-not. Boffins prove that getting in-love by scientifically test mental performance isn’t the same as crave or infatuation. And ways in which people just fall in love are distinctive from the way female just fall in love. Therefore, typically internet dating guidance that’s not certain to sex might deceiving or wrong. Extremely, which are the indications of in love? How do you know if the man really likes a person?
SO, THERE ARE 10 TRICKS POSSIBLE CHECK TO FIGURE OUT HOW EXACTLY TO KNOW IF he or she LOVES one.
One of the primary signal a guy happens to be falling crazy happens to be a timeless: nonverbal communication. To measure if perhaps the dude you are actually with is definitely dropping requirements, ask his or her gestures. A guy sincerely interested in may tilt in your direction while you’re speaking, internal and external mirrors the actions, or expands out his chest.
In a survey by Vacharkulksemsuk and associates, it actually was proved that travel daters who had been intensive employing gestures clover dating reviews like spreading out the company’s limbs received 76percent chance to be picked for a date.
On the other hand, if a guy folds his own practical their chest, their body’s turned removed from a person, the likelihood is a very clear signal that he is not sliding for everyone in anyway. Likely this individual regards you as a buddy.
HE STARES AT YOU A LOT
In case the guy stares at a person regularly, it is typically a symbol that he is head over heels requirements. As soon as you look after eye-to-eye contact, it indicates you are actually working on anything. As a result, if she’s looking at you carefully, the guy just might become falling crazy.
Research has shown that people just who lock sight get a feeling of a more powerful passionate association as opposed to those which fleetingly stare each and every other. Men exactly who stares at we, capturing his own eye across that person often ensures that he or she is decreasing for yourself.
At Wellesley College and Kansas school, researchers discovered that both males and females that are romantically fascinated about people would gaze from the chest area and brain . If he or she stares at your ft . and feet, you are in the friend-zone, our good.
they TOUCHES YOU FREQUENTLY
Common a relationship advice typically contains the importance of starting actual push as a precise sign you are fascinated. As a result, for those who are internet dating people and that he require every chance to place their on the job an individual without it experience scary, he will be probable slipping requirements. Even small adornment regarding shoulder or provide make the perfect indicator to watch out for.
In particular, whether you have a tat in which he carefully holds their hand to check out it or clear the entranceway to get through 1st, and casually grazes his own hand individual spine, woman, he is into your.
Guys who are internet dating anyone will never frequently carry out acts to on purpose mislead we. So, these people probably won’t really take the time to the touch an individual as long as they do not like an individual; they have to do almost anything to hinder offering an inappropriate perception. Now and then, a guy can make they manage unintentional, ah ah! he desires to feel you. Maybe he might force you into an arm wrestle that he scheduled approach ahead.
the guy ATTEMPTS SOMETHING NEW WITH YOU
At the outset of a connection, you should impress your honey, but once they continually attempts something totally new that you simply appreciate, that have been a smart signal that he’s grabbed a case of the appreciate bug.
A study proves that people who had been not just previously in-love have actually various behavior and passion following start of a long term commitment. If they hates dance it is nevertheless happy to drop by those sessions together with you, it may have got an optimistic impact his or her individuality, and start to become a sign that he possess quite strong attitude closer.

Hudson Health Plan Receives Top Score in New York State Survey
From a 2013 survey issued to healthcare consumers throughout New York State, Hudson Health Plan was recently recognized for receiving the highest score. The company, which provides state-sponsored Medicaid Managed Care and Child Health Plus insurance coverage in six counties throughout the Hudson Valley, got exceptionally positive feedback from customers based on nine measures of criteria listed in the survey. Hudson Health Plan beat out 15 other Medicaid managed care plans and scored higher than the state average on all nine criteria measures including rating of all health care, rating of personal doctor, and customer service. President and CEO, Georganne Chapin, spoke highly of her company’s commitment to customer service and quality care: “These high scores are a reflection of the hard work and dedication our staff and health care providers exhibit every day,” she explained. “Our members know we’re here for them, and will help them in any way we can.”

Future deep-space communications will require the collection and transmission of data from high-bandwidth links. NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory (JPL) is investigating the utility of laser communications for future missions to Mars and for future communication stations on the moon. Cloud cover impacts the availability of space to ground optical communications. Mitigating these impacts requires a geographically diverse network of ground communication. Selecting the number and location of stations for a network requires an optimization algorithm that can distinguish and rank site availability based on multi-year cloud climatologies for many locations around the globe. The optimization algorithm must also consider the movement and location of a space-borne probe. In this JPL-funded study, the TASC Lasercom Network Optimization Tool (LNOT) is used to determine optimal networks of receiving stations by analyzing cloud mask data from the continental United States, Hawaii, South America, Europe, northern and southern Africa, the Middle East, central and eastern Asia, and Australia. To generate cloud masks, raw visible and infrared radiance data from GOES (Geostationary Operational Environmental Satellite) and Meteosat satellites are compared to predicted clear sky background values. Several threshold tests in the Cloud Mask Generator (CMG) involving radiance-derived cloud identification tools (e.g., fog product, albedo product) are used to estimate the probability of cloud cover for a given pixel of a satellite image. When stations are chosen from a list of sites of interest, six stations are needed to achieve a network availability of 90 % or better.
NASA Jet Propulsion Laboratory (JPL) is interested in adding optical communications to its deep space communications network. Clouds adversely affect the transmission of optical communications; in order to mitigate the effects of clouds and achieve reliable communications, a geographically diverse set of ground receiver stations is needed. To study cloud effects on optical communications we have developed a high-resolution cloud climatology based on NOAA Geostationary Environmental Operational Satellite (GOES) imager data. The GOES imager includes multi-spectral channels, one visible and four infrared, at 4-km spatial resolution and 15-minute time resolution. Cloud detection is accomplished by modeling the radiance of the ground in the absence of clouds and comparing the actual radiance values from the imagery. A composite cloud decision is formed by objectively combining the results of the tests from the individual channels. Ground site selection studies are accomplished using the Lasercom Network Optimization Tool (LNOT). LNOT applies a discrete optimization algorithm to the cloud climatology dataset to find the optimal number and locations of ground stations for a given concept of operations. Applying LNOT to the JPL problem we find that 90% availability could be achieved with 4-5 ground stations in the continental US and Hawaii. We also present the results of a pilot study that includes 6 months of cloud data over South America.

The term data compression identifies reducing the number of bits of info which has to be saved or transmitted. This can be done with or without the loss of information, which means that what will be removed in the course of the compression will be either redundant data or unneeded one. When the data is uncompressed afterwards, in the first case the content and the quality shall be the same, whereas in the second case the quality will be worse. There're different compression algorithms which are more effective for different sort of data. Compressing and uncompressing data often takes lots of processing time, therefore the server carrying out the action must have plenty of resources in order to be able to process the info fast enough. An example how information can be compressed is to store just how many sequential positions should have 1 and just how many should have 0 in the binary code as an alternative to storing the actual 1s and 0s.
Data Compression in Cloud Hosting
The compression algorithm that we employ on the cloud hosting platform where your new cloud hosting
account will be created is named LZ4 and it is applied by the cutting-edge ZFS file system that powers the platform. The algorithm is better than the ones other file systems employ because its compression ratio is much higher and it processes data considerably quicker. The speed is most noticeable when content is being uncompressed as this happens faster than data can be read from a hdd. Consequently, LZ4 improves the performance of every site stored on a server that uses the algorithm. We use LZ4 in one more way - its speed and compression ratio make it possible for us to generate a number of daily backups of the entire content of all accounts and store them for a month. Not only do our backup copies take less space, but in addition their generation doesn't slow the servers down like it often happens with various other file systems.

other characters and storylines
Genie Chance was a radio reporter who broadcast non-stop during the aftermath of the earthquake. As people realized she was on the air, she became a conduit for people to reconnect and let distant relatives know they were okay. In the play, performer Devan Hawkins wrote several scenes based on Chance's real life; we follow her as she gets her first on-air job, through the earthquake, and as she wins awards for reporting and later becomes an Alaska state senator. One of our fascinations was with how the range of available media has considerably shifted the way natural disasters are covered. There was no live coverage of the 1964 earthquake the way that there would be today. Genie's storyline highlighted that for the audience.
Jack Hoff was created by performer Andrew Miller to explore the dark underbelly of earthquake recovery: swindlers. Though Hoff was selling bogus insurance policies prior to the earthquake, the consequences of those purchases will likely be devastating to homeowners who were relying upon his fraudulent company to assist them with reconstruction. He's not all bad, however. He did assist Carin with finding a place to shelter after her house was destroyed, and he felt sufficient guilt over taking money from June that he returned it before he fled Alaska.
Michael was based on performer Joshuah Rutten's idea that someone needed to stand for and represent those who died. As a dead character who walks through the world assisting those who've just lost their lives, he is able to see and reflect on things that other characters cannot. At the end of the play, he led a memorial of sorts to the 139 victims.
Joe Pyne and the sitcom characters are the remains of our explorations around the history of the United States in the 1950s and '60s. Pyne was the original Bill O'Reilly or Sean Hannity: conservative, aggressive, and actively provocative toward his guests. We wanted to better understand where the earthquake fell in the better-known timeline of American history: what was happening politically and culturally before and after the event? We also sought out information about earthquake science, and had a visit from Janelle Sikorski from the Department of Geological Sciences who explained plate tectonics and answered a ton of questions we had about what happened geologically in 1964. The Obligatory Scientist character emerged from this research.

Baggage breather for budget fliers
June 28 (TravelAndy): The Indian government on Saturday rejected a proposal by budget airlines operating in the country to charge for checked-in baggage.
Passengers are now allowed to carry check-in luggage of up to 15kg for free.
“We have got the proposal from low-cost flights to charge for check-in baggage. We have rejected it and there will be no consideration at the Aviation Ministry level. We will not want to put this burden on passengers,” Minister of State for Civil Aviation Mahesh Sharma told PTI.
The minister, however, said he would encourage the airlines to provide incentives to passengers who travel light.

Okay, so here’s what I don’t get. On the one hand, Joan Walsh over at Salon says she likes “seeing [President Barack Obama] play that paternal role, Father in Chief [italics mine], not just for his own daughters, but for all of our children.” Because ‘[a]ll of our kids need to be reminded that education is a precious opportunity they must seize, whether they live behind the high gates of a tony private community or in a violence-plagued housing project.” This is just common sense to her.
And yet, she is puzzled that anyone would be opposed to such a speech:
Lunatics like Pamela Heller of Newsmax, radio host Brian Fischer and WorldNetDaily’s Bob Unruh are trying to organize parents to take their kids out of school for the day. Texas Gov. Rick Perry says he’s “troubled” by Obama’s speech. Crazy Glenn Beck and Michelle Malkin are raging against “indoctrination” while Townhall’s Meredith Jessup is calling it “a massive abuse of government power.”
Granted, Obama’s Republican opponents, entranced with executive power so long as it’s wielded by a Republican executive (and in love with socialism so long as it’s military socialism) have no legitimate moral legs to stand on. They’d be defending a John McCain address right now had November ended differently (Republican presidents have delivered such school speeches with little kurfluffle), as the big, strong father-in-chief who could keep the country safe.
The problem is the very idea that the president is, can, or should be some kind of “father in chief.” This notion crosses party lines and is embedded in the very American concept of nation and government.6:48 am on September 4, 2009 Email Charles H. Featherstone

The table of contents in Time’s special edition “The Science of Exercise” lists seventeen different articles, all of which sounded interesting enough to induce me to take the magazine off the display and add it to my shopping cart. And the articles did turn out to be interesting, every page worth a read by anyone interested in physical wellbeing. But, as a blog content writer, I was interested in not only the articles, but in the table of contents. Why had I found some of the titles more intriguing than others, tempting me to read certain articles first?
There were titles with an “agenda”, where you knew the writer’s point of view before reading the article, such as:
- “The Incredible Medicine of Movement”
- “How Exercise Keeps You Young”
There were emotional “grabber” titles, such as:
- “When Athletes Beat the Odds”
- “Confessions of a Couch Potato”
There were how-to titles, including:
- “How to Beat Muscle Pain”
- “How to Exercise When You Have No Time”
And then there were “the Truth About” titles. You may have chosen otherwise, but for me, these Truth-Abouts were the most compelling. In “The Truth About Weight Loss”, titles, there was a hint of mystery, a promise an expose, perhaps – I was going to be given the “real scoop”… I suppose there’s something enticing about a title promising to “bare the truth”, especially when it concerns a topic on which we didn’t expect there to be any secrets to speak of.
In a business blog (or practitioner’s blog) “Truth-About” blog posts can be used in three basic ways:
- To de- mystify, offering information that makes your blog a “go-to” source for readers.
- To myth-bust, addressing misunderstandings about a product or service
- To offer actionable steps readers can take
In AuthorMedia.com, Thomas Umstattd advises authors to use the title to describe not the content of the article, but the value readers can expect to find in the content, making a case for why readers ought to even bother reading on.
Those three words – “The Truth About” constitute a promise of value when used in the title of a blog post. What will you tell your readers the truth about?

a “slow” reggae/rock roll from victor & the new vintage
By Sound Check
April 5, 2019
“Slow” is the first track and video off The New Vintage, the recently released EP from Victor & The New Vintage. On the surface, it’s got all the feels that we’ve come to expect from the razor-sharp, London-based reggae-rock trio that R. Victor Williams formed after disbanding his previous group, the theatrical fusion juggernaut, Liontribe — kinda rap-rock, kinda garage-reggae, discombobulated in all the best ways. But a little beneath the surface of the song, and in the video — a screen split between The New Vintage’s performance and a voyeuristic dance routine performed by actress/dancer Sophie Ablett — something odder occurs.
“Slow” is almost a soul-dub tune — constructed for the most part from Williams’ loverman vocals and vibrato guitar licks, that engage with the drummer’s hi-hats and rim-shots — except that it also opens up into a set of power-chord breakdowns that in classic roots style become more intense. It is really unlike almost anything else out there. Like a lo-fi blues, or a progressive rock song constructed in equal parts feel and high-minded composition, “Slow” remains in a loop of a perpetual breakdown, and Ablett’s endearing, free-associative choreography is a perfect accompaniment. Odd birds hearing each other’s calls, and what-not.

Ein Gedi (also spelt En Gedi) is a desert oasis. Situated in eastern Israel, close enough to the Dead Sea and Masada, this makes for an awesome stop over while doing the pair. Israel is quite simply full of surprises and Ein Gedi was a neat extra that we didn’t even know about or bank on, when doing the Masada Sunrise tour with Abraham Tours. Ein Gedi was a bonus.
Having got up at 4am (we stayed in the Abraham Hostel in Jerusalem) and hiked to the top of Masada for sunrise, this was an incredible day in our backpacking lifestyle. After getting back to our bus from Masada, we were taken to Ein Gedi. Before the trip I had heard of Masada and the Dead Sea (obviously) but only thanks to my Lonely Planet book was I aware of Ein Gedi’s existence.
What is Ein Gedi?
A nature reserve, a desert oasis. Call it what you will, this is a random area of wildlife, waterfalls and plants in an area of desert plain near the Dead Sea. It’s not incredibly unique until you realise it’s this close to the Dead Sea, and nicely situated just north of Masada too. It makes a totally welcome addition to your backpacking in Israel adventure.
Getting to Ein Gedi.
OK there’s the usual two options – do it yourself or go with a tour. You’ll note that on my travel blog I usually do things myself, which means buses, spending a lot more time planning and trying to save money. I don’t always agree this is best though, a bit of a reality check is needed sometimes. So I advise you to do Ein Gedi as part of a tour which includes Masada and the Dead Sea. Call it killing three birds on one stone.
You’ll be dropped off at the entrance, given time to go in and check out the nature reserve and then back in the bus for the next leg of the journey. The order goes:
2. Ein Gedi
3. Dead Sea
How much does it cost to visit Ein Gedi?
It’s a flat fee of 29 Israeli Shekels. However if you book the tour with Abraham Hostels, you’ll get a discount. They are currently issuing you with a voucher for 25% off – so just over 22 Shekels with the voucher. You could also pretend you’re a student and blag further discount.
What is there to see and do at Ein Gedi?
1. Admire Wildlife – Wildlife lovers will be at home here. A range of birds and mammals can be seen while walking around Ein Gedi. Rock hyraxes and Ibex were the main ones we saw. At night, hyenas and foxes can be seen. All the time be on the lookout for snakes and lizards. Birds fly by all the time too – look up into the trees.
2. Hike – It was extremely hot when we were there and having spend the previous few weeks doing lots of hikes in the heat in Israel and Jordan, we chose to take it easy and just head to the second waterfall. There are longer hikes if you’re up for it! Make sure you take water and sun cream though – it gets hot!
3. Get Wet – For me the highlight of Ein Gedi was getting wet in the waterfalls. There are a few of them about, with the main one being called David’s Fall. As a tip – wear your swimming shorts in advance so you can get that well needed dip!! The water is also extremely fresh.
4. Ancient Synagogue – Dating back to the 3rd – 6th Century AD is an ancient synagogue. The floor contains a mosaic with animal inscriptions. It’s accessed on a path to the left of the front entrance.
5. Relax – You can chill away from the rays of the sun on the picnic tables by the car park. Ice cream, hot snacks and cold drinks are all for sale here. I indulged in an ice lolly!
6. Go Shopping – There’s a cafe and a shop here. You can get your souvenirs here but be warned they are a bit pricier than in downtown Jerusalem.
Ein Gedi got us in the mood for the next big event of the day. It was a hotly anticipated one for me. Having seen the world’s highest lake in Bolivia about 3 years earlier (Lake Titicaca), I was now going to see the world’s lowest lake, the Dead Sea from the Israel side.
Thanks to Alun Kruger for being our tour driver and Tourist Israel for the recommendations on some great trips.

Maintaining proper alignment of the pelvis is key to keeping the spine healthy and avoiding long-term health issues that could require physical therapy, spine surgery, or other treatments. People who practice good posture are less likely to experience lower back pain and injuries to the vertebral discs and other structures of the spine.
The average adult human head weighs approximately 10 lbs. and provides a constant source of pressure that is carried throughout the whole spinal column. People who fail to maintain proper alignment of the pelvis often divert the head’s weight. The imbalance can cause other segments of the spine to receive too heavy of a load that can result in irritation of the spinal nerves and pain. When the pelvis is kept in a good position, the top of the sacrum should be parallel to the floor. People who are already experiencing neck pain are more likely to find relief by first correcting their pelvic tilt which, in turn, will correct head alignment.
Exercising the body’s core is an excellent way to keep the lower spine in position. The core muscles include the area surrounding the pelvic floor, the abdomen, the diaphragm and the long muscles that support the length of the spine. Weakened core muscles allow the pelvis to sway too far back and pull the rest of the vertebral column out of line. When a person develops and maintains a strong core, the pelvis, and subsequently the rest of the spine, falls into a more natural, supported position.
Correctly positioning the pelvis while lifting or pulling heavy objects is crucial to protecting the whole spine. The buttocks should not be pushed too far forward or backward when lifting because doing so can result in sprains, strains, or herniated discs anywhere along the vertebral column. Bending and using the legs to lift and receive the bulk of the weight is also important when handling large, bulky items.
People who spend a lot of time in an office chair can keep their pelvises in the correct position by using furniture that supports good posture. Chairs with armrests and adjustable backs and heights are particularly useful. If chronic back pain is affecting your everyday life, it might be time to consult the board-certified orthopedic physicians at The Spine Institute and learn more about possible treatment options. Call (310) 828-7757 today and request an in-person consultation. We look forward to hearing from you.

A daughter executed her own mother by kicking away the chair as she was hanged in line with one of the Iranian regime’s most barbaric laws.
Maryam Karimi was condemned to die for killing her husband – who reportedly subjected her to years of abuse and refused to grant her a divorce.
Her dad and only relative Ebrahim did his best to solve the issue peacefully but was unable to convince his stubborn son-in-law, so he aided his mistreated child in the killing, reports say.
After their arrest, Maryam’s six-year-old little girl went to live with her dad’s grandparents, who told her she was orphaned after both parents died 13 years earlier.
Just weeks before Maryam and Ebrahim’s execution date, the now 19-year-old daughter was told how her dad met his end.
On February 22 last year, Maryam and Ebrahim were transferred to death row, but the hanging was delayed for unknown reasons.
Under Iran’s take on Islamic Law, it is the relatives of murder victims rather than the state who decide the killer’s punishment.
On conviction, families are asked if they want revenge in the form of “qisas” or an “eye-for-an-eye”, or if they want to spare them and receive a sum of “blood money” instead. Forgiveness is also an option, one which is surprisingly popular.
The qisas law becomes even more barbaric when the victims are related or married. In Maryam’s case, the only person who could make the decision was her daughter.
A few weeks later, the teen was taken to Rasht Central Prison to kick the chair out from under her own mum’s feet, causing her to drop as she was hanged from the rafters.
Ebrahim was given a temporary reprieve but guards made sure to escort him in front of the stage where his daughter’s body was still swinging from the gallows.
In June this year, Ebrahim was killed in the same prison as his daughter.
Iranian rights groups believe the qisas system gives the Iran’s clerical leaders plausible deniability, allowing them to shirk the responsibility of being the second most prolific state executor, with only China beating its grim annual tallies.
It also breeds an insidious violence which permeates throughout Iranian society.
Director of Iran Human Rights Mahmood Amiry-Moghaddam shared this harrowing story with The Mirror, adding that the judicial system is “converting” victims into executioners.

Owners encouraged to care for pets' future in estate planning
Taking animals into consideration in estate planning is a thoughtful and loving thing to do
Hotel heiress Leona Helmsley, "the queen of mean," left a $12 million trust fund for her dog, Trouble, when she died in August. She wanted to make sure that the white Maltese would be properly cared for after her death. (She omitted two of her four grandchildren from her will.)
Most pet owners don't have the means to match Helmsley's largesse, but they do worry about what will happen to their pets after their death. That's why they include their pets in their estate plans.
Evie Gerber of Foster City is one such owner. She has had her 9-year-old black miniature poodle, J.J., since J.J. was a puppy. Gerber, who was the administrator of a law office before she retired and who gives her age as "senior citizen," has arranged for J.J.'s care in case she dies before the dog.
Working with her attorney and with Lisa Van Buskirk of the Peninsula Humane Society & SPCA, Gerber developed an estate plan specifying that her brother in Seattle, who gave her the dog, will become J.J.'s new owner.
If he can't, then J.J. would go to Bay Area Poodle Rescue, a nonprofit that finds homes for poodles. Gerber has worked with the Berkeley group.
As a third alternative, J.J. would go to the humane society's continuing care program, which would put her up for adoption. "I know she would be taken care of with this program," Gerber said. Her estate plan also provides funds for J.J.'s continued care.
Ellen Maurer, 86, of San Mateo also has made plans for her 7-year-old Maine coon cat, Shasta. Maurer adopted the deaf and declawed cat from the Peninsula Humane Society in January.
Maurer lives with her daughter, Heidi Maurer, 51, who would take care of the cat, but the elder Maurer worried about what would happen if they died at the same time.
"I want to make sure that (Shasta) is taken care of the way she's used to," Ellen Maurer said. That's why she has arranged for the humane society to put Shasta into a foster home until she is adopted permanently.
She's leaving money to pay for Shasta's food and medical needs in foster care, and she's leaving a bequest to the humane society because she believes in what it does.
The couple have had their 12-year-old charcoal gray cats, Dorian and Earl, since adopting the brothers from the humane society when they were 10 weeks old.
The couple's estate plan specifies that the cats will go into the humane society's continuing care program for foster care and adoption. It provides funds to the humane society and the new owner for their care.
"We're kind of picky about what their living arrangements are," Scanlan-Rohrer said, noting that Dorian and Earl are strictly indoor cats. The couple also want the cats adopted together.
Using a program like the Peninsula Humane Society's continuing care program is endorsed by Colleen McAvoy, a San Mateo attorney who specializes in estate planning.
McAvoy outlined the basic concepts of estate planning for pets during a talk at the San Mateo County Law Library in Redwood City and in a subsequent interview.
Even though pets may be important and beloved members of the family, California law regards them as property. They're part of the estate's assets, so they can't inherit anything. However, they still need care, which requires time and money, perhaps thousands of dollars a year for food, medical care and other needs.
One option is to leave the pet to a designated beneficiary and to list alternates to that person. Money for the pet's care also could be left to the beneficiary, but there's no guarantee that it would be used for the pet, which would become the beneficiary's property.
Another option is to name someone to inherit the pet and to name a trustee to administer money held in a pet trust, as authorized by California probate law. However, there's no way for the new pet owner to enforce this honorary trust if the trustee doesn't adhere to its terms, McAvoy said.
A stronger, enforceable trust names the pet's new owner as the beneficiary and requires the trustee to give the owner money from the trust as long as the owner cares for the pet. The outline states: "This type of trust is enforceable because it has a human beneficiary. Important decisions include caretaker and successor caretaker(s), trustee and successor trustee(s), and remainder beneficiaries."
A fourth option is to leave the pet to an animal care group like a local humane society or SPCA.
Pet owners can also specify their wishes if they should become incapacitated by establishing a health care power of attorney as well as a revocable living trust, McAvoy said. These wishes can include going into a care home or assisted-living facility that accepts pets, as many do.
An estate plan would apply only to the planner's living animals, not the animals' offspring.
One's wishes must be expressed in the proper form and language, and family and friends should be told what provisions are being made. "Do the planning and then communicate," McAvoy said.
Planning for a pet gives the owner peace of mind. In addition, "good planning is appreciated by those who have to pick up the pieces," she said, and it eases the transition for the pet.
Finally, it could save the pet's life. A Los Altos group, 2nd Chance 4 Pets, says that an estimated 2 or 3 percent of the 8 million to 12 million companion animals that go into animal shelters each year are there because their owners have died or can no longer care for them.
Although there's no legal requirement to do so, McAvoy suggested that the pet's trustee and beneficiary become acquainted with the pet while its owner is still alive.
What if the owner has a medical emergency and is taken to the hospital? The group 2nd Chance 4 Pets provides emergency contact information cards to carry in the wallet and to post in the home. The all-volunteer nonprofit also provides information about ensuring lifetime care for a pet after its owner's death or incapacity.
The wallet card gives the owner's address, lists pets at home and names an emergency caretaker. The home card also names an emergency caretaker as well as the veterinarian and other information about the pet or pets.
"I encourage people (who live alone) to have a friend or neighbor" check on them periodically and maybe leave them a key to the house, said the Peninsula Humane Society's Van Buskirk.
Van Buskirk, vice president of development and planned giving, oversees the humane society's continuing care program.
When pet owners contact her, she first advises them to try to find someone to take the pet. She'll even arrange to send the animal to an out-of-town beneficiary if necessary.
If the humane society is to take the animal and it's adoptable, "we'd find it a home," Van Buskirk said. Even older animals are OK.
In planning for the humane society to take the animal, Van Buskirk goes to the owner's home with a detailed questionnaire about the animal: its food, habits, favorite toys, medicines and personality. The questionnaire includes contact information such as the estate planning attorney, executor and veterinarian.
The humane society doesn't charge anything for the program, but it asks clients to become members. There's no set amount for the annual dues. However, most clients also leave a bequest to the humane society in their will or trust, Van Buskirk said.
People tell her they feel better after they sign up for the program. Providing for a pet's care after one's death "is a loving and thoughtful thing to do for the pet," McAvoy said.

SAGINAW – Natural resource trustees representing federal, state and tribal governments will hold a public meeting this Thursday in Saginaw to provide information and answer questions about the trustees' joint plan to restore fish, wildlife and habitats in three mid-Michigan counties.
U.S. Attorney Matthew Schneider will also attend the meeting on behalf of the public.
Earlier this month, an agreement was announced between the trustees and the Dow Chemical Company to settle an environmental complaint for an estimated $77 million in projects and funding that will restore fish, wildlife, and habitats injured when hazardous substances were released in past decades from Dow's manufacturing facility in Midland, Michigan.
The agreement is subject to public comment and approval in federal court. The trustees' restoration plan, which describes how the settlement will be implemented, is also available for public comment.
"Folks attending our upcoming public meeting will learn more details about more than a dozen resource restoration projects that have been developed," said Lisa Williams, a representative of the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service with the trustees. "We will also discuss how to propose potential future project ideas."

The public meeting will be at 7 p.m. Thursday, Nov. 21 at the Four Points by Sheraton Saginaw, 4960 Towne Centre Road in Saginaw. (Visit the trustees' Tittabawassee River Natural Resource Damage Assessment webpage for instructions on submitting comments. Note: The Nov. 21 meeting is being held to provide information and hear from the public in an open house format. It is not a formal hearing to record public comments.)
Under the settlement, Dow will carry out or fund restoration projects identified in Midland, Bay, Saginaw, and nearby counties. These projects include fish spawning and fish passage improvements; restoration of thousands of acres of wetlands and other habitats; creation of multiple public nature areas with nature trails, fishing platforms, and one bike trail segment; protection of a green corridor along the Tittabawassee River; and expansion of boating access at the mouth of the Saginaw River.
Dow will implement many of these restoration projects under the guidance of the natural resource trustees and provide funding for other specific projects that the trustees will work with partners to implement.

The settlement also provides for at least $5 million for additional projects to be solicited from the public, and up to $10 million for long-term stewardship of the restoration projects, monitoring, and trustee costs to implement the settlement.
The U.S. Department of the Interior's U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service and Bureau of Indian Affairs; the State of Michigan's Department of Natural Resources, Department of Environment, Great Lakes, and Energy, and Attorney General's Office; and the Saginaw Chippewa Indian Tribe of Michigan are acting together on behalf of the public as the natural resource trustees.
This resource restoration work will begin as separate, ongoing contaminant clean-up efforts continue.
Contaminants released from Dow's Midland facility over many decades injured fish and wildlife and natural areas in and around the Tittabawassee River, Saginaw River, and Saginaw Bay. The new agreement will address these injuries within Midland, Saginaw, and Bay counties.
For more information on the settlement, how to provide public comment and more, visit the trustees' Tittabawassee River Natural Resource Damage Assessment webpage.
