Republic Bank plans to close Pinellas office
Send this to a friend
Republic Bank plans to close its office in Palm Harbor early next year.
The bank’s parent company, Louisville, Ky.-based Republic Bancorp Inc. (NASDAQ: RBCAA), disclosed the planned closure in its quarterly filing with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission. The office is expected to close in January, one more before the lease expires, the filing said.
Republic Bank, headquartered in Port Richey and with $117.7 million in assets, has two other offices in Pasco County and one in Hillsborough County, as well as one office in Blue Ash, Ohio.
A sister subsidiary, Republic Bank & Trust Co., is closing its sole banking center in Minneapolis, according to Louisville Business First.
Republic Bancorp withdrew plans to consolidate the charters for Republic Bank and Republic Bank & Trust in October. The charter consolidation had been seen as a way to boost efficiency.

His name is Pudding and he is a ginger and white tabby cat. A very handsome cat, he is, too. I think you will agree. He’s a good boy and he did well. His adopter is Amy Jung. She is diabetic. We are told that she had a seizure in her sleep and Pudding woke her up. When she called out to her son in the next room for assistance, Pudding woke him up as well.
That’s all I know about him but it is enough. He’s got lots of likes on Facebook. And some wonderful comments. Here’s three.
- Beauty and brains = Cat
- Cats sense when something is wrong
- Good on ‘ya Pudding.

Canopies for schools are becoming increasingly aware of the benefits of allowing pupils to spend time in natural outdoor surroundings. Studies show that it has a positive impact on behaviour and learning. However, adding a new outside space to the school can be quite costly. A canopy is a much more cost-effective option, giving the same effect.
Canopies can be used in many different ways in a school environment, including covering walkways between buildings, creating a breakout educational area outdoors, protecting building entrances and car parks and extending the area for sports spectators. They can also be designed with a wide variety of colours to match the school.
From Schools to Cafés: The Versatility of Canopy Systems
Shaded structures can reduce the UV exposure of students which has a huge impact on their health and wellbeing. An insulated roof can also keep the school warm in winter and cool in summer saving energy costs and helping to reduce carbon footprint.
An outside area will allow pupils to play games or take part in other activities without getting wet, especially at busy times of the day like lunchtimes and at the beginning and end of the school day. It will also mean that pupils do not have to run between buildings if it starts raining – this can lead to accidents.
A bespoke canopy can really lift the way the school looks. With a range of coloured designs and a choice of material to suit the school, it will add character and make the building stand out on the campus.

Welcome to p.m. Intel, your bite-sized roundup of Bay Area food and restaurant news. Tips are always welcome, drop them here.
- After more than a yearlong hiatus, food trucks are rolling back downtown next week, scheduled to coincide with California’s official June 15 reopening. Lamas Peruvian Truck, Bacon Bacon, and Rice Bucket will be among the offerings when Off the Grid launches its food truck spots at Salesforce Tower (Tuesdays and Thursdays), Levi Plaza (Tuesday through Wednesday), as well as further south in Menlo Park (Wednesday only). Additional food trucks are set to join the rotation in the coming weeks.
- San Francisco–based chocolate company Dandelion Chocolate laid off a number of staff members and made cuts to remaining employees’ hours and pay last week, as first reported by SFist. The cuts follow a unionization effort earlier this year, with employees seeking to address pay, workers’ safety, and a failure by management to address staff concerns. Union organizers say the layoffs were targeted, claiming that all laid-off staffers were members of the organizing committee, and said they plan to file an unfair labor practice charge with the National Labor Relations Board. The company has responded by saying the reductions were purely economical, and that those impacted by layoffs and cuts included both union supporters and not. [SFist, SF Chronicle]
- Forthcoming fine dining restaurant Osito is finally set to make its Mission debut, reports the SF Chronicle, with tickets now on sale for October 15 through the end of 2021. Initially planned as a communal, live-fire dining experience serving 15-course tasting menus for $200, chef and owner Seth Stowaway has since scratched the communal part, and shifted the menu to 10 or so rounds of more than 20 dishes for $295. All cooking will still take place over a live fire, and the restaurant, at 2875 18th Street, will open with a separate cocktail bar serving Tex-Mex snacks. [SF Chronicle]
- The founder of Boavida Cafe is leaving the coffee shop at the end of June, citing “a necessary separation of the silent business partnership behind it” and months of negotiations. Andrea de Francisco, who previously owned Cafe St. Jorge in Bernal, first opened Boavida Cafe in the Outer Sunset in 2019, and it quickly grew into a thriving Portuguese egg tart destination. While she’s not announced next steps, de Francisco says she’s open to pursuing new ventures, including consulting for small businesses.
- Berkeley Mediterranean restaurant Lalime’s will not return in any form, reports Berkeleyside, with owners of the 35-year-old staple citing a combination of pandemic-induced losses and their desire to retire. Despite hope for new owners to take over the business, real estate investor Ito Ripsteen has bought the building and plans to renovate and replace the restaurant, albeit with one that “will honor the legacy of Lalime’s,” he told Berkeleyside.

Tnx Rebecca for letting me take part!
Number of Times Seen – 1 (14 Nov 2021)
Brief Synopsis – A woman who is an aspiring singer and is unhappy with her life, meets a mysterious man who changes her whole outlook on life.
My Take on it – This is another film that I knew nothing about before coming across it during my research for this blogathon.
Emilia Clarke is a great actress who has had some great roles on both TV and in the movies, but her role here isn’t as strong as one might hope.
This film feels far too ‘fluffy’ for its own good and it’s so hard to try and feel any connection to any of the characters or the situations they seem to find themselves in.
The love story aspect of the film doesn’t feel powerful or realistic enough and that takes away significantly from the story.
The conversations between the characters seem a bit too stale and the story would have worked much better if they would have had much more meaningful and genuine.
The music by George Michael is superbly placed in this film and adds a lot to the feel of it all as things move along.
MovieRob’s Favorite Trivia – This movie marks the first writing collaboration of spouses Dame Emma Thompson and Greg Wise, a process that was eight years in the making. (From IMDB)
Rating – BAFTA Worthy (5/10)

Mara willson is so cute in this movie. It's about a girl to prove that Santa Claus didn't commit any crime. Such a classic cute movie. Really good movie for the family.
What do you think, have you seen it?
When a nice old man who claims to be Santa Claus is institutionalized as insane, a young lawyer decides to defend him by arguing in court that he is the real thing.
I like both versions of this movie; the classic and the modern. A sweet story that will touch your heart. We all need to believe in something. The spirit of Christmas is a wonderful gift that we all need in our lives. Both versions have a great cast to bring the magic to life.
This is a Christmas classic, I always watch this movie around Christmas time. It has a great storyline, about a girl who was taught not to believe in Santa Claus but later builds an actual friendship with him and begins to truly believe in him!

Attackers have started using a common network service to amplify Distributed Denial-of-Service attacks and flood targeted networks with data packets, telecommunications firm Level 3 Communications stated in an analysis published on Aug. 17.
Using the service, known as portmap or portmapper, an attacker can send a simple request and create a much larger stream of data—from 7 to 28 times larger—to be sent to a targeted network.
Since June, the number of attacks using portmapper has increased by a factor of 22, and even though the number of attacks continues to be small, the trend suggests that attackers may be switching to the new technique, Level 3 researchers stated in their analysis.
“We caught this early on,” Dale Drew, chief security officer for Level 3 Communications, told eWEEK. “We caught these bad guys experimenting, and it looks like they were developing code, automating the attack and make it easier to run.”
Denial-of-service attacks often use a technique called amplification to make a small attack into a much bigger flood of data. In an amplification attack, a single network packet is sent to a server running a vulnerable service, causing the server to respond with a much large volume of data. The attack essentially uses legitimate, but vulnerable, Internet infrastructure to attack a target.
In the latest case, attackers are using portmapper—a service that tracks which logical “ports” on a computer allow access to specific applications—to magnify a 50- to 80-byte request by a factor of 7 to 28 times. Level 3 has witnessed attacks amplified by a factor of nearly 20.
The company is not the only one to detect novel ways of amplifying denial-of-service attacks. Security firms have seen a steady stream of new techniques over the past few years.
The computers used to keep time synchronized across the Internet, known as network time protocol (NTP) servers, were commonly used by attackers in 2013 and early 2014 to magnify attack traffic.
Starting in late fall 2014, attackers focused on another communications method, the Simple Service Discovery Protocol (SSDP), which is used by Universal Plug-and-Play devices (UPnP) devices to automatically configure themselves. And, earlier this year, attackers used an older protocol, known as the Routing Information Protocol version 1 (RIPv1), to amplify their attacks.
Level 3’s data suggests that there are a million servers exposing the portmapper service on the Internet that could be used in an amplified attack, said CSO Drew. In the past, some of the largest attacks seen by security firms were caused by NTP amplification, and Drew worries that, using portmapper, a similar threat could emerge.
Because criminals use denial-of-service attacks as a way to extort cash from online businesses, constantly coming up with new ways around defensive technologies is important for them. Already, online-gaming companies and Web-hosting firms have been hit with a handful of attacks using the technique, Drew said.
“What we are seeing is that these criminals are looking to make a tremendous amount of money using DDoS extortion attempts,” he said.


eight meters for every next squared. And to solve complications similar to this It truly is helpful to simplify, so let's simplify that to ten meters for every 2nd squared. That'll be close more than enough for our calculations in this article all right so I want to know at what stage will my Original velocity equivalent the velocity resulting from gravity. So my Preliminary velocity is twenty meters per 2nd And that i need to know at what level will that equivalent ten meters for every second squared situations t ok.

Your contribution might be even more edited by our staff, and its publication is topic to our ultimate acceptance. Sad to say, our editorial solution may not be able to accommodate all contributions.
One particular might compare linear motion to basic motion. Normally motion, a particle's place and velocity are explained by vectors, which have a magnitude and direction. In linear motion, the Instructions of each of the vectors describing the program are equal and consistent which suggests the objects move along the identical axis and don't alter path.
As machine screw actuators change rotary motion into linear, they’re ideal for screw driving, wheels and axles, and motor vehicle jacks. An electric positioner is really a linear motion procedure that maintains actuator security and Manage. Allow Grainger make the legislation of linear motion work for you.
How significant will it go during the air alright, perfectly now I need to figure out the distances and once again distances for velocity is velocity occasions time, distances as a result of power of gravity is one particular half gravity times time squared ok. So how do Those people two distances mainly because my velocity heading up will almost certainly begin at 20 my velocity because of gravity will begin at zero and afterwards it will slowly enhance, it's going to keep on to increase.
So I'm going to add those two vector, velocities alongside one another okay Therefore if I say and for that a person try to remember the gravitational velocity will probably be a adverse worth Whilst my First velocity up is going to be a positive price. So let us go on and compute that velocity moments time is twenty meters for every 2nd moments two seconds alright and minus gravity pointed down and once again the distance due to gravity is a single 50 % and ten periods 10 meters squared that is the see this here drive of gravity instances time squared okay which is two times two.

So now It really is at the point at which its velocity as a result of gravity has equaled to velocity as a result of Preliminary velocity applied to the ball.
Newton’s legislation of motion, relations in between the forces acting on the human body and the motion of your body, initially formulated by English physicist and mathematician Check This Out Sir Isaac Newton.
Actually, in classical Newtonian mechanics, there is absolutely no critical distinction in between relaxation and uniform motion in the straight line; they may be thought to be exactly the same condition of motion viewed by unique observers, 1 moving at the same velocity given that the particle, another moving at regular velocity with respect towards the particle.

A challenge you could possibly see connected with linear motion is actually a ball thrown straight up at twenty meters for each next for how long will that ball transfer up And the way superior will it go? How far will it vacation?

The City of North Battleford is joining other communities across Saskatchewan by raising flags and awareness to an issue that has been silent too long; sexual assault.
Members of the Battlefords and Area Sexual Assault Centre (BASAC) joined Mayor Ryan Bater for an official flag raising ceremony and the reading of a proclamation designating this week as Sexual Assault Awareness Week in the municipality.
“This is just a small part of what we play in not only raising awareness to the issue of sexual assault but also for the organization (BASAC),” Bater said. “This group does a tremendous amount of work for our community and I respect that.”
Statistics Canada shows that one in three women and one in six men will be sexually assaulted in their lifetime. According to Amber Stewart, executive director of BASAC, events such as this raise awareness to the problem of sexual assault and empowers those affected with the strength to speak out.
She said Saskatchewan currently has one of the highest rates of interpersonal violence (spousal or family abuse) in Canada and that women and children experience the highest rates of victimization in the province which is at crisis levels in some communities.
Stewart also anticipates that the need for BASAC services will only continue to grow as more awareness is provided.
“We’ve already seen demand for what we do increase since 2015,” she added. “With movements like #metoo and #timesup, sexual survivors are reaching out for help and taking the brave step of disclosing that they are survivors."
Stewart added she was grateful with what the local community did for the organization.
“We certainly appreciate that the City of North Battleford and the Battlefords as a whole have been so supportive in our centre,” Stewart said. “I would hate to think what our organization might look like without them being so accommodating.”

SnoCountry SnoCast: Multiple Storms Finally Target The East
Patience will pay off in the East when multiple shots of cold and snow bring a much-awaited weather pattern for area ski resorts.
Eastern U.S. & Canada
Here we go! Recent warmth is being pushed away and multiple waves of snow are on the way for many locations in the East. The first wave will arrive Thursday, Nov. 7 with snow in upstate New York, northern New England and southern Quebec. The sweet spots for highest totals will be northern Vermont, New Hampshire and Maine where as much as 4-8” will fall.
This will be great for Cranmore and Tremblant, hoping to open soon and join Killington offering skiing/riding. It will be much colder Friday and in fact, snowflakes will fall all the way south to West Virginia. Saturday will be plenty cold to make snow and then another low pressure system will bring snow showers across the Great Lakes and near the Canadian border on Sunday. That system will bring another 2-4” of accumulation. Keep an eye on/around Tue., Nov. 12 as there may be another coastal storm with potential accumulations.
Western U.S. & Canada
Alberta and British Columbia are poised for the heaviest snowfall this forecast period. The overall pattern will be sunny and mild Thursday and Friday. Friday night to Saturday night, a strong cold front will cross western Canada and drop heavy, blowing snow at higher elevations. As much as 6-12” (15-30 cm) will fall by Sunday, the most in Alberta.
Lake Louise and Marmot are primed for heavy snow this week. Some of that snow will work into Montana and Wyoming early Sunday with 3-6” forecast. The rest of the West will be fairly quiet and mild. Much of the cold will remain entrenched across the Plains and East this week. Look for more resorts to open such as Breckenridge and Copper which are expected to be Colorado’s next.

The Turkish survey ship Cesme has sailed for the Aegean sea again on Friday afternoon. At around 14:00 noon Cesme sailed to the search area announced by the illegal Turkish Navtex on February 15th.
Cesme’s crew has instructions from Ankara to conduct hydrographic surveys between Lemnos, Agios Efstratios, and Skyros.
On Thursday morning – due to adverse weather conditions – the Cesme hydrographic survey ship abandoned the research area in the Central Aegean and moored in the port of Izmir. As it turned out, Cesme’s mooring was a tactical move dictated by deteriorating weather conditions.
At noon on Friday, Cesme returned to the Aegean. Around 14:00, it sailed for the sea area off the coast of Lesvos. Based on the speed of the Turkish vessel, it is expected to return to the exploration area after 18:00 in the afternoon.

We've mentioned our love for swings before in the past, but what happens when you cross a daybed with a swing? This hanging daybed is by Ana of Knock Off Wood and she "almost didn't publish the plans because they were just too simple!" So head out to the hardware store because you've got a swing to make!
The supply list for this project is super short and on the inexpensive side of things and can be done with a hand saw! It doesn't even require power tools if you don't have any. Check with your local hardware store to see if they'll make the cuts for you, if not, plan on putting in an hours worth of hard work for the project. Here's what you'll need:
17 - 2x4 studs (should be less than $2 each)
100 3" wood screws
50' of rope or chain with a load limit of at least 200 pounds (for an 800 pound capacity)
4 - Eyebolts (8 if you also need bolts for the ceiling mount too)
Finishing Supplies as desired
Check out Anna's simple plans for this awesome daybed and make sure to send us pictures of your own creation! You could make one to hang outside, or even inside in a bedroom or basement playroom. We think they look like a dreamy place to read a book or just take a few minutes to relax.

Responding to the Business Statement on Thursday 1 October 2020, I highlighted the lack of parliamentary scrutiny the government’s coronavirus measures have been subject to. You can read my full speech below:
“I thank the Leader of the House for the business and for announcing the Opposition day and the recess. I also thank him and his office for forwarding all my requests to Ministers. We just need to find a way round the use of “in due course” and “shortly”. My hon. Friend the Member for Newport East (Jessica Morden) has received a “soon” on her 10-minute rule Bill on access to benefits for terminally ill people.
We did not get a very helpful response from the Foreign Office Minister, and I would say, in relation to Nazanin, Anousheh and Luke Symons, that we well remember how Jill Morrell kept the names of John McCarthy, Brian Keenan and Terry Waite front and centre so that people would not forget them, and that is what we must do now. These are innocent people who have done no wrong.
Mr Speaker, I know that the whole House—maybe apart from the Government—agrees with your statement and supports it.
Yesterday, the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care said that he was announcing a new convention, but I am not quite sure what that means. He said that
“for significant national measures…we will consult Parliament”,
but I thought the Government had to consult Parliament anyway on anything that is supposed to come into effect. He also said that:
“wherever possible, we will hold votes”.—[Official Report, 30 September 2020; Vol. 681, c. 388.]
But there is no guarantee of a vote. The Leader of the House will know that the regulations on self-isolation, including the £10,000 fine, came into effect seven hours after publication, but the media were briefed eight days before, so there was plenty of time for a debate.
This so-called new convention only deals with national measures, not local measures, which is what right hon. and hon. Members want to know about, because they want to know what is going on in their constituencies. Last week, the Leader of the House said that there is regular scrutiny and debate, but that is not true, is it? Without the hybrid proceedings, many of our colleagues are excluded from taking part in debates on legislation, so the Government cannot have it both ways.
Let us look at the statutory instruments. Some of them are made through the negative resolution procedure, which means they are signed into law and are debated only if they are prayed against. Mostly, they are administrative and technical, but extending pre-trial custody from 56 days to 238 days deserved a debate, and in any event, the Government decide whether there is time for a debate. What about affirmative SIs? They are laid before the House only after they are signed into law.
Can the Leader of the House say why the majority of the regulations have been made under the Public Health (Control of Disease) Act 1984, which is meant for emergencies, and not the coronavirus legislation, with its safeguards? Will he guarantee that we will have a debate or even a short statement on any new regulations that are proposed? We want it in the House, not in No. 10 from behind a lectern.
May we have a statement on 16 October, a sitting Friday? The European Council will meet on 15 October. The Prime Minister needs to give a statement to the House on the next phase of the negotiations.
That lack of transparency is everywhere. In the Government’s White Paper on planning, they are removing the requirement to place planning application advertisements in local newspapers. That is already happening in my constituency, where Walsall Council has decided, without any consultation, that it will not do an environmental impact assessment for one of the most important projects there, the route for a sprint bus. It is totally discredited; there will be more traffic; and no one wants it apart from the current Mayor.
Mr Speaker, you mentioned someone who is really good at transparency, and that is Mark Hutton. I, too, agree with your statement and want to pay tribute to Mark Hutton. He has been in this House for 35 years. As you say, one of his greatest legacies is “Erskine May” online, and he was the co-editor, with Sir David Natzler, the 25th edition. In fact, his nickname was “Erskine” Hutton. He always saw the potential of digital, and his advice was quite strategic across the House, both on procedure and how it related to the legal side and on how the House works. When he was at university, apparently he liked directing plays, so obviously he came to work here, because he likes the drama. He has left a great legacy.
The Leader of the House and I were on the Governance of the House Committee, which was very controversial at the time, but Mark managed to get us through that. Also, we agreed the report digitally, and it went through in record time. Mark has not only left online “Erskine May”; he has patiently taught the next generation of Clerks. Mark, we will miss you. Thank you for your work. The House is very grateful, and we hope to see you when you get back—and when we all get back, maybe at a do in Speaker’s House. [Interruption.] We hope you do, Mr Speaker; we are looking forward to your dos.
It is Black History Month. Tomorrow is the anniversary of the birth of Gandhi, and it was lovely to see a photo of Dr Martin Luther King in his dining room with picture of Gandhi. Both of them worked for justice in a non-violent way. Today is also the mid-autumn festival for the Chinese community.
Finally, on behalf of the whole House, I want to send our very best wishes to my hon. Friend the Member for Denton and Reddish (Andrew Gwynne), who is jumping out of a plane on Sunday, weather permitting, for six year-old Florence, who has a life-limiting disease and a rare genetic condition. He is not on the call list today, but we hope will see him next week at business questions, hopefully without a plaster cast.”

What is a Long Gilt?
Long Gilts are bonds that are issued by the British government. ‘Gilt’ originates from the original British government certificates that had gilded edges.
Gilts are the U.K. version of U.S. Treasury securities. Investors consider the Long Gilt low risk as they are backed by the British government. Long Gilts have a long maturity, that being 8 years and 9 months to 13 years.
Uses for Long Gilt
Long Gilts are very popular futures investments due them being recognised as a low risk investment. The main purchasers of gilts are pension funds as well as life insurers.
Risks of Long Gilt
Long Gilts are seen as a safe investment. The notes are issued by the government and as such they are government backed. With this low risk comes a low return on investment.

A Larch Corrections Center officer is suing the Washington Department of Corrections, alleging he was discriminated against over a hearing loss condition.
Vancouver resident Todd Atwell, represented by Navigate Law Group, filed the complaint Friday in Clark County Superior Court. The claims include disability discrimination and retaliation for opposing unlawful employment practices.
“While the department does not comment on ongoing litigation, we take all allegations of discrimination seriously and work hard to provide a safe and inclusive work environment,” DOC Deputy Communications Director Rachel Ericson said in an email Monday.
According to the complaint, Atwell was hired by the DOC in 2013, at which time, managers were aware he suffered from a hearing loss condition. For many years, he used hearing aids in both ears. His disability did not prompt any alleged performance concerns prior to May 2020.
But on May 8, 2020, Larch Superintendent JC Miller and Human Resources Manger Daniel Scheetz approached Atwell to discuss concerns about his hearing condition. He was subsequently forced on administrative leave for a few days and then had to use his saved vacation and sick leave, beginning May 12, the complaint states.
Because he was forced to take leave, Atwell requested and was approved for medical leave on May 21, 2020, in part, due to a cochlear implant surgery scheduled for June 19, 2020, and recovery period, according to the complaint. He requested medical leave until mid-August.
The complaint alleges that prior to surgery, the DOC did not offer him a temporary position or any accommodations.
On Aug. 17, 2020, Atwell’s doctor gave him a return-to work form. He met with Miller and Scheetz three days later, the complaint says.
“During the meeting, without warning, and without any medical background or training whatsoever, Supt. Miller and Mr. Scheetz began to subjectively ‘test’ Mr. Atwell’s hearing. These alleged ‘tests’ included Mr. Atwell being asked to repeat numbers relayed over radio by Supt. Miller and Mr. Scheetz. These alleged ‘tests’ were performed on an open radio channel and could be heard not only by colleagues but also inmates at LCC,” the complaint reads.
Scheetz then wrote an Aug. 26, 2020, email to Atwell, claiming Miller observed that Atwell was “not able to communicate safely and effectively” based on the tests. Scheetz indicated Miller was considering reducing Atwell’s pay to that of an office assistant, according to the complaint.
Atwell contacted his union representative, who demanded that he be able to return to work with full pay, the complaint states.
He was allowed to return Aug. 31, 2020, but not to his old position, the complaint says. From Sept. 4, 2020, until March 5, he was reassigned to conduct COVID-19 screenings at the facility’s entrance.
According to the complaint, in an early September 2020 weekly staff meeting, Miller allegedly “mentioned to all staff that were present that they should keep tabs on Officer Atwell’s hearing and document any safety issues.”
However, Atwell’s complaint says that his hearing continuously improved after surgery. His audiologist submitted a letter to the DOC stating his ability to detect sounds was at normal or near normal levels.
But in January, Scheetz emailed Atwell and said he would be required to attend a fitness for duty evaluation. In a subsequent letter, Atwell was told to attend a fitness for duty medical exam in February, the complaint states.
In a Jan. 20 letter sent to Larch leadership, it noted Atwell had not been given any reason for the DOC ignoring his medical providers’ documentation nor alleged deficiencies in the documentation, according to the complaint.
After continued back-and-forth about Atwell’s fitness for duty, he returned to his position March 5.
He is seeking economic and noneconomic damages, attorneys’ fees and costs, prejudgment interest and any other relief.
“It appears that the only ones with selective hearing are the individuals in charge at Larch Correction Center,” Atwell’s attorney Colin F. McHugh, of Navigate Law Group, said in a news release. “Officer Atwell and his medical providers made it abundantly clear that he was fit for duty, and his superiors arbitrarily kept him out of his regular bid position and humiliated him with their unqualified hearing ‘test,’ broadcasting the situation to all of Officer Atwell’s colleagues and inmates, as well. There is no reason why he should have been treated like that.”

According to a report by the BBC people who use “hook-up” apps to meet for casual sex must ensure their partner is above the age of consent, the National Crime Agency is warning.
It follows a reported rise in the number of teenagers phoning the NSPCC’s helpline with bad experiences after downloading apps like Grindr.
One man contacted by Newsbeat said he had been “groomed” by a 24-year-old after going online aged 13.
App designers say users must confirm they are of appropriate age – over 17.
There are several free “hook-up” apps which show the profiles of nearby users – including their photographs and often their sexual preferences.
These differ from traditional online dating sites because they are “geosocial” – they can pinpoint users to within a metre, rather than general areas like towns – meaning they have become popular with people looking for casual sex.
The maker of two leading services, Grindr, which is intended for gay men, and Blendr, aimed at straight people, claims around 201 million adults use its services. Others include Scruff, Jack’d and Bender.
“I was struggling with my sexuality so having something on my phone I could easily download was one way of meeting people who were gay that I could relate to,” he said.
But soon he began messaging a 24-year-old man in his area.
“He knew I was obviously emotionally vulnerable. We used to go out for meals, go to the cinema, play computer games and stuff like that. Looking back he was grooming me.”
The friendship developed and Aaron had his first sexual experience with the man, who has since been prosecuted and put on the sex offenders’ register.
Aaron said: “There needs to be something done so that when you do download it, you can prove the age you actually are.”
The National Crime Agency’s warning comes on Safer Internet Day. Jonathan Baggaley, head of education said: “Just because we’ve not received huge reports doesn’t mean this isn’t a major issue. Clearly the very dynamic of this kind of relationship means young people won’t report it.”
He warned: “The law is very clear: regardless of how the conversation is started, regardless of who thinks they’re in the driving seat the adult is always the one who has the responsibility. A child should never be blamed.”
The NSPCC said it did not have specific figures on “hook-up apps” but said it had seen a rise in calls about them. It said in 2012-13, 1,061 young people contacted its ChildLine to talk about online sexual abuse.
Claire Lilley from the NSPCC said: “These apps do have terms and conditions in place but they’re simply not being enforced and as a result children are being put at risk of serious harm. We know this because of the huge increase in calls to ChildLine over the last year about issues such as online grooming.”
Kevin Robinson from Barnardo’s said these geosocial apps can be more accurate at pin-pointing locations than many young people imagine.
Two young people the charity worked with had downloaded one of the apps and sent out a message saying something like, “We’re bored and looking for a laugh.”
“However, that message was picked up by someone using a geo-location system. That person tracked where their messages were coming from and turned up on their street and was parked outside their bedroom window,” he said.
“Without more stringent sign-up checks, regulation and control, we can’t get enough information from the app designers to help us track abusers.”
In a statement Blendr – who also own Grindr – said: “We do our best to ensure all users follow our strict terms-of-service policy that require users to be at a minimum age of 18.
“We have a diligent team of moderators focused on monitoring and ensuring users adhere to our terms-of-service guidelines.”
Radio 1 Newsbeat and BBC Radio 5 live will broadcast a special joint programme about online safety on 11 February between 12:30 and 13:00 GMT.

It aired in the wee hours, in the dead of summer of 1998, 14 time zones from the live events it transmitted.
BRITISH OPEN COVERAGE

We will be trying to win for ourselves, not America, says Watney. Read article
US could do with healthy filling of Sandwich at golf's British Open. Read article
It would not seem primed to become anybody's phenomenon. It would not seem a candidate to cause audacious statements 13 long years after it signed off from some impossibly distant golf tournament on an opposite edge of a planet.
It would not seem - here goes the audacity - surely one of the most influential sport programmes in the brief history of television.
In the top 10, certainly. In the top five, probably.
While we speak often of television and its enormous monetary impact on sport, we speak less often about its effects on parents and on children who saw programmes and got big ideas.
Surely few remember the 1978 French Open tennis tournament, but supposedly, when a Richard Williams with zilch of a tennis background saw the champion Virginia Ruzici win US$40,000 (Dh146,920), he determined that if he had future daughters, he might steer them into tennis.
Well, take Venus Williams and Serena Williams and their collective 20 grand slam singles titles and, in terms of width of effect, multiply them by multitudes in the case of that golf tournament from 1998, and the television show that keeps yielding fruit even 13 years after it aired, its most recent major effect coming just this week.
On Monday in Colorado, the South Korean golfers So-yeon Ryu and Hee-kyung Seo went into a three-hole play-off for the US Women's Open title, which the 21-year-old Ryu won masterfully in order to receive traditional congratulations from Se-ri Pak.
Thirteen years before that in Wisconsin, Pak and the American Jenny Chausiriporn went into an 18-hole play-off for the US Women's Open title that turned into a sudden-death, 20-hole play-off, which the 20-year-old rookie Pak won grittily in order to …
Well, in order to win a second straight major and become the youngest US Open title-holder at the time.
And in order to thrill the millions of groggy South Koreans watching in the wee hours during a horrendous economic period that cried out for some good news.
And in order, as it happened, to alter the entire landscape of a sport.
When Pak won the LPGA Championship in May 1998 and then the US Open in July to more galvanised noise back home — plus a government-issued medal — the number of South Korean professionals and South Koreans who had won major tournaments totalled one (Pak). Well, look now.
As of Monday, Ryu became the seventh different South Korean player to win a major since Pak, counting Eun-hee Ji in the 2009 US Open, Inbee Park in the 2008 US Open, Ji-yai Shin in the 2008 British Open, Birdie Kim in the 2005 US Open, Jeong Jang in the 2005 British Open and Grace Park in the 2004 Kraft Nabisco.
In the rankings of Monday, July 11, four South Koreans grace the top 10, seven dot the top 20, 11 occupy the top 30, 16 the top 40, 19 the top 50 and 36 the top 100.
Those statistics would qualify as astounding if they had not grown routine. It is a continuation of one of the most profound - and, so often, charming - takeovers ever. It's stunning when you think about it even if nobody much thinks about it anymore.
That 1998 Pak-Chausiriporn play-off proved compelling even to some American men who never bothered much with women's golf.
Pak trailed by four shots after five holes but won.
She had to remove her shoes and hit out of the water on No 18 but won.
Her opponent, Chausiriporn, was an amateur who won admirers with her decency after her runner-up finish.
The whole thing in the dregs of summer compelled the galleries watching in Wisconsin beside Lake Michigan, and watching on television in smallish numbers in sensible hours.
It just did not compel them nearly so voluminously as the sleep-deprived sorts back in Seoul and thereabout.
As a Washington Post article of the time detailed, a golf craze hit South Korea right that summer.
Department store sales of golf gear shot upwards. Parents and children watched both live and on replays, and by a decade on, it became almost funny, this player and that player and the other player citing Pak as a hero and that show as an inspiration.
Shin has said it. Park has said it. And when did this latest champion, Ryu, begin playing golf?
Oh, that week in 1998. Now she plays her final rugged holes of a major title with Pak, still just 33 and finished with her round, following.
Pak is an exceedingly rare woman who dwells smack amid the phenomenon she unwittingly but skilfully created.
She appeared on television in 1998, and pretty soon the earth moved. Considerably.

Some of what Brad shared were new insights that broadened my view and deepened my understanding of what Jesus spoke. For me, it also helped remove some of my western thoughts to put the Bible back into its historical context as well as how the listeners would have understood what Jesus said. Of course, in some ways the author includes conjecture or assumptions as to what someone thought, but those I just read and took them as his opinion not necessarily as fact.
What made the book most enjoyable was discussing it with a friend; it was fun to see what each of us thought, understood, agreed with or disagreed with, and at times what challenged our long-standing views. I love books that challenge me to think, rethink and be able to defend why I believe what I do or be willing to adopt new views based on what I am learning. One of the gifts my parents bestowed upon me was a love of learning. What Jesus bestowed on me was a love to draw nearer to Him.
I highly recommend Brad’s book for a book club, Sunday school class, small group, or just for a person to read alone. Just know that it will challenge you, excite you, ignite a fire for more understanding of the Master Jesus we follow!
Dr. Young's work provides an insurmountable wealth of wisdom as regards the original context of Jesus' words within the context of the culture of his day.
I had heard these words so many times growing up in Christian churches and had always wondered at their meaning.
Thankfully, later in life, God lead me to scholars such as Dr. Young, that helped me see things that I never thought I'd see.
Ultimately, these same scholars, instilled in me a sense of wonder that has continued until this day.
I am very grateful to Dr. Young, and to the ineffable spirit that guides him, for the information in this work.

An initiative of the Pat Franklin Memorial Fund, the Artist Scholarship Project enables students to come to Flying Deer programs they would not otherwise be able to attend due to limited finances. In return, the fund requests that these students create a work of art expressing the way in which nature and Flying Deer culture impacted them personally in the program. The work may be in the form of music, visual art, poetry, writing or theater, and will be shared formally with the student’s personal community, as well as with the Flying Deer community at large.

The new label’s name derives from the year His Master’s Voice (HMV) opened its first store on Oxford Street, with music from its newly signed artists now set to be sold exclusively in the high street retailer’s stores, of which there are currently 115 across the country.
HMV has largely struggled since the dawn of streaming services like Spotify, with the number of UK stores having fallen from 292 to 131 between 2010 and 2017.
In early 2013, the company entered administration and HMV Group was liquidated the following year. In 2019, however, the company was bought by Doug Putman, owner of Canadian-based Sunrise Records, who hoped to turn the company’s fortunes around by focussing on vinyl amid the format’s resurgence.
Putman appears to be making a good go of reviving the company, with nine stores having opened since the start of the year and three more set to come before Christmas.
And now him and his team have identified a new way they hope to bring money into the coffers – whilst promoting new talent, of course.
1921 Records’ first signing, India Arkin, was selected after performing live in an HMV store in her hometown of Newcastle, as part of the HMV Live & Local programme. The label has big plans for Arkin and for more live performances in their stores as a whole.
Speaking of the new label and its first signing, Putman said: “India’s music is absolutely incredible and we’re thrilled to make her our first 1921 Records signing. She has such passion for her craft, and she’s a true musician who writes, plays instruments and performs.
“We’re really proud of our HMV Live & Local programme, which sees artists like India given the same platform as the international artists who come to our stores, like Charli XCX and Yungblud. India’s performances in Newcastle got rave reviews from our staff and led to her being signed today.”
Arkin, meanwhile, added: “I’m thrilled to be releasing my debut album with 1921 Records, and it’s almost unbelievable that gigs in the store in HMV Newcastle would lead to this. I can’t wait to see my record on the shelves and tour the country performing with my band.”
The news comes ahead of further plans for live music by the retailer, with more than 100 gigs set to take place in their stores across the country on National Album Day on 15 October.
HMV has history as a record label, with Putman stressing the new move is one that “hark[s] back to its roots”.
In 1931, the company joined with Columbia Gramophone Company to form Electric and Musical Industries – now more commonly known as EMI.
The HMV label was converted into one exclusively dedicated to classical music in 1967, however, which continued into the ‘80s. Eventually the label was split off from the retail group in 1998.
Arkin’s debut studio album ‘Home Truths’ will be released on October 15, as part of National Album Day. It’ll be available exclusively on vinyl in HMV stores across the UK and online, and you can pre-order here.


Goldman Sachs revealed as purveyors of pirate capitalism
The good news is that $2.15 billion of Goldman Sachs’ market value was wiped out by a disillusioned executive’s very public parting shot at the investment bank’s greed and selfish cynicism.
The bad news is it will probably be a temporary loss and will do little to change the ethical climate at Goldman Sachs or in the larger world of Wall Street. Pirates are a hard bunch to reform.
Greg Smith is the 33-year-old, London-based head of Goldman Sachs’ overseas equity derivatives business who quit his job just minutes before his explosive Op-Ed article appeared in Wednesday’s New York Times. In his piece, Smith wrote, “It makes me ill how callously people still talk about ripping off clients.”
Smith describes the various ways many of his colleagues undercut the interests of investors in order to make more money for themselves and the company. He said he could no longer stomach the prevalent ethic that making gobs of money by any means was perfectly fine and highly rewarded, so he jumped ship, simultaneously sinking his own future in the financial business.
Smith’s revelations are no big surprise to critics of the big banks and financial firms. What is significant is that the criticism comes from an insider who was part of the greed machine.
There are already those who are saying: So what? Isn’t making money the whole purpose of capitalism?
Yes, it is. But there is more than one way to make money. Earlier in the Republican presidential primary campaign, none other than Newt Gingrich made a distinction between those who risk their own money and put in the sweat and toil to build their own enterprises and those who use other people’s money to get rich by picking apart the assets of troubled companies. Texas Gov. Rick Perry capped this debate – which, of course, was an attack on Mitt Romney’s activities with Bain Capital – by coming up with the term “vulture capitalism” to label what Gingrich was talking about.
It is vulture capitalism that drove the country to the edge of financial disaster in 2008. Back then, I had a conversation with a friend of mine who was disgusted by it all. He insisted that the core purpose of business is to serve customers and the community, not merely make fortunes for Wall Street players who trade in exotic financial schemes that build nothing and create no jobs.
Now, my friend is not a left-winger who hates free enterprise. He is a Republican, a devout Christian and a smart entrepreneur who has run two successful businesses. His point is that if a business does right by customers, the money will follow, but if greed is the only motivation, customers, community and maybe even the country will suffer. Sure, someone can make a lot of money by looking out for no one but himself, but he will have betrayed the higher spirit of capitalism.
Greg Smith may never make the big bucks again now that he has ratted on Goldman Sachs, but at least he’ll be rich in the one thing Wall Street needs as much as money: integrity.

When is a private company not a private company? Answer: when it’s wholly owned by the UK government and forms part of our overseas aid programme. No one may have heard of the power company Globeleq, but it’s doing its best to keep alive the dream of electricity privatisation in a world that is increasingly turning away from the private sector.
Globeleq was set up in 2002 by the Department for International Development (DFID) as part of the government’s strategy of ‘promoting the private sector in the developing world’. The company remains wholly owned by DFID through its private sector promotion arm CDC, formerly known as the Commonwealth Development Corporation.
Globeleq now has operations in the energy sectors of 16 countries in Africa, Asia and Latin America, and is actively pursuing further acquisitions in its bid to be ‘the fastest growing power company in the emerging markets’.
Globeleq has indeed grown fast. The company’s rapid expansion has been made possible because other multinational power companies have been keen to exit developing country markets as a result of the problems associated with energy privatisation.
However, this means that vast amounts of aid money supposedly earmarked for development purposes have been given instead to US power companies wishing to pull out of the developing world. Two such companies – AES and El Paso – have benefited to the tune of over US$1 billion between them in this way.
In this way Globeleq is keeping alive a private sector presence in situations where other companies have abandoned the market. This is in line with DFID’s broader aim to sustain the private sector in cases of market failure, but it raises serious questions in light of DFID’s overall mandate of poverty reduction. The involvement of multinational power companies in the energy sectors of developing countries has been deeply problematic, as the poor have often found themselves excluded from access to privatised electricity. Far from solving the problems of poverty, electricity privatisation has often exacerbated them.
There are currently 1.6 billion people around the world without access to electricity, roughly a quarter of the world’s population. Two thirds of these are in Asia, with most of the rest in sub-Saharan Africa. The International Energy Agency estimates that it will be necessary to roll out electricity services to a further 600 million people by 2015 if the world is to meet the top line UN millennium development goal of halving the proportion of people living on less than a dollar a day.
Yet privatisation of the electricity sector has not been successful in expanding coverage to poor communities. In fact, privatisation has led to sharp increases in the tariffs charged to consumers, and these increases have often raised prices beyond the reach of the poor. The arrival of multinational companies such as AES, Enron and EDF in developing countries during the 1990s saw dramatic price increases in electricity. When the Indian state of Maharashtra opened its power sector to Enron, for example, the state electricity board soon found itself forced to raise tariffs to farmers by a crippling 400 per cent to meet the added costs.
Electricity privatisation has proved hugely unpopular in many of the countries in which Globeleq operates. In Arequipa, southern Peru, mass protests erupted when the government attempted to privatise two electricity companies in 2002, with two people killed and 150 injured. Months of demonstrations against electricity privatisation in the Indian state of Andhra Pradesh left three people dead and thousands arrested.
Yet DFID continues to promote the privatisation of public services through Globeleq and other such initiatives. This not only conflicts with DFID’s own poverty reduction mandate, but it also undermines the ongoing work to build alternative models of energy provision, such as public sector and community- based services that are affordable and accessible to all.
The government has acknowledged the problems caused when developing countries are required to hand over public services to multinational companies.
Why, then, does it own a private power company that aims to take over energy services in the developing world?John Hilary is director of campaigns at War on Want. A full report on Globeleq is available at www.waronwant.org/globeleq

Hutchings, until now assistant manager at Derby, replaced Jewell in similar circumstances at Wigan Athletic last year, and again at Bradford City in 2000, both times after Jewell resigned.
He will initially manage the club for their FA Cup third-round tie at Forest Green Rovers on Saturday, and the Carling Cup semi-final first leg against Manchester United on Jan 7th.
Jewell, 44, has left the club in 18th position, just five points above the relegation zone, having taken charge 13 months ago. The club's chairman, Adam Pearson, said: "It is disappointing. We had a chat after the game and Paul felt it was in the best interests if the club went in a different direction.
"I think he felt things were conspiring against him and perhaps he just needed a fresh chapter. The pressure has been on Paul all season because of last year. There was a big hangover at the start of the season."

Most people don’t pay much interest in the art world.
So last week’s revelation of Hillary Clintons campaign manager John Podesta’s brother, Tony Podesta being involved in ‘spirit cooking’ caused plenty of eyebrow raising.
WikiLeaks released emails between Podesta and performance artist Marina Abramovic discussing his plans to participate in a ritual called ‘spirit cooking‘ and the possibility of him bringing brother John along too.
I am so looking forward to the Spirit Cooking dinner at my place. Do you think you will be able to let me know if your brother is joining?
All my love,
‘Spirit Cooking’ was a staged performance which was held at a number of museums around the world and consisted of mixing blood, semen and breast milk to smear on the walls as ‘graffiti’. However, many believe that ‘Spirit Cooking’ is a dark and evil dinner referred to in the emails, which includes the consumption of the blood, semen and milk in the name of ‘magick’.
The news of the ritual shocked many and the globally renowned artist was soon branded as some kind of ‘devil worshiper’. Many speculated that Hillary’s staff were involved in satanic rituals and that she ‘probably’ participated in spirit cooking herself. (Although there is no proof of that.)
However, Marina has recently spoken to Art News about how the story has got completely out of control…
“I’m outraged, because this is taken completely out of my context… It was just a normal dinner… It was actually just a normal menu, which I call spirit cooking. There was no blood, no anything else. We just call things funny names, that’s all.”
So we did some digging on this legendary artist to find out more about her and it turns out Abramovic is very much honoured in the art world. Whilst she is known for work that focuses on pain, blood, and the relationship between the performer and the audience, there is a much deeper meaning behind everything Marina does.

Exhibition: The Network Ecologies Arts in the Edge
curated by Amanda Starling Gould
The Network Ecologies Arts in the Edge exhibition brought together two collaborative collections. Combining machinic and human agencies in the form of generative sculpture, painting, and augmented reality (AR), the works by Karin and Shane Denson probe the material and virtual value of today's networked ecology in "Making Mining Networking," a body of work meditating on the creation and exploitation of value in digital environments. Rebecca Norton uses affine geometry to explore actions and intuitions of intermediacy – what she describes as a feeling of being suspended in the middle stages of a process. Works chosen for exhibition included paintings and digital interactive artworks made in collaboration with Eddie Elliot, and image stills from her video project "Wandering Through Childhood."
The Network Ecologies Arts in the Edge exhibition and event was co-sponsored by the FHI, the Duke PhD Lab in Digital Knowledge, and Duke Digital Scholarship Services.

As most of you know, Hong Kong is home to me. Having spent my formative years here, there is a comforting sense of familiarity and nostalgia within me as I learn to conquer this city as a real live grown up. However, part of the process of settling here again after 6 years away is finding my identity in the city as a fashion designer and not a school kid. This is why local press for Book of Deer means a lot to me. As much as I believe the Book of Deer girl knows no geographical or nationality boundaries, I am pleasantly surprised that HK girls identify with BoD too. You could say Book of Deer’s particular flavour of girly and quirky is not the typical taste around these parts.
The start of 2013 brought me some very much welcomed local press interest.
First up was a spread from one of the best local mags in HK- Milk Magazine
. I used to buy Milk as a teen though I can’t read Chinese very well. Milk Mag packs a significant pop culture punch for a weekly magazine, they cover everything from fashion to media and food. I was thrilled to be invited back into their labyrinth offices to style a look from SS13.
I chose the Kindling Dress
against a sunshine yellow backdrop and paired it with some fun primary-coloured accessories. We fishtail braided the model’s long hair and added rosy cheeks and freckles. She looked super cute.
I brought along my UV light to get the dress glowing.
I love how the article turned out and am really quite honoured to have been featured alongside some other rising talents in HK.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Next, the Sun Daily
newspaper invited me for an interview about my work. This one focused more on my design career than Book of Deer and for a brief moment made me feel like I had achieved something in my quarter-life. The journalist Emily did a great job translating my ramblings into a coherent and flattering article. She asked me a lot about the early days of Book of Deer's conception and about my time at Central Saint Martins. It is strange to look back and see how much time has passed and yet simultaneously feel as though I’ve only just begun. Although each step of the process of building Book of Deer has had its challenges, I can look back now and say the thought of launching it was much scarier than the actual act of doing it.
If you are curious to see what I look and sound like you can watch a snippet of the interview here
. I can barely stand to listen to myself without cringing to death but perhaps you are curious to hear what an odd accent/voice I have. (sorry about the 'ums' and 'yeahs')
