A top US Senator has urged Secretary of State Mike Pompeo to press the Indian government for a "swift reversal" of the amended Citizenship Act and the proposed National Register of Citizens to ensure the protection of human rights of all persons in the country regardless of their religion.
In a letter to Pompeo on Tuesday, 14 January Senator Bob Menendez, a Ranking Member of the powerful Senate Foreign Relations Committee, expressed concern over the Citizenship Amendment Act (CAA) and the potential for the establishment of a nationwide National Register of Citizens (NRC) in India.
Asserting that the US must remain steadfast in defending democratic values, freedoms and human rights, he said, “I urge the Administration to engage the Indian government at the highest levels on these concerns, press for a swift reversal of these policies and practices, and ensure protection of the human rights of all persons in India regardless of their religion.”
‘CAA Signals an Anti-Muslim Intent’: Menendez
According to the CAA, members of Hindu, Sikh, Buddhist, Jain, Parsi and Christian communities who have come from Pakistan, Bangladesh and Afghanistan till 31 December 2014 following religious persecution there will get Indian citizenship.
"The law to grant citizenship based on religion violates India's international legal obligations and its constitution, which guarantees the rights to equality and nondiscrimination," Menendez said.
"The citizen registry has already disproportionately affected Muslims in India. These efforts threaten India's long history of secularism and democratic values," claimed the Democrat leader who represents New Jersey, which has among the highest concentration of Indian-Americans in the US.
“Despite the government’s claims that the Citizenship Bill seeks to protect religious minorities, its failure to include Muslim groups facing persecution in neighbouring countries, such as Pakistan’s Ahmadiyya and Burma’s Rohingya, signal an anti-Muslim intent,” wrote the Senator.
Menendez also expressed concerns over reports of injuries and deaths of peaceful demonstrators protesting the CAA and the proposed nationwide NRC.
Referring to the NRC, the Senator said in October last year, he had travelled to India during which he met with civil society activists who expressed deep concern about the "trajectory of these policies and its negative impact on the future of democracy in India".
“The government’s efforts in Assam has left effectively 1.9 million persons, primarily Bengali-speaking Muslims, stateless. The government appears to now be extending this effort across the country,” he said.
The NRC exercise was conducted in Assam on the directions of the Supreme Court.
Senator Expressed Concerns on Kashmir Situation
Though several Union ministers, including Home Minister Amit Shah, have often pitched for a nationwide NRC exercise, Prime Minister Narendra Modi last month had said that his government has never discussed the NRC since coming to power for the first time in 2014 and it was done only in Assam due to a Supreme Court order.
On the CAA, Modi said the law is about giving rights to persecuted minorities from neighbouring countries and does not snatch anybody's rights.
In his letter to Pompeo, Senator Menendez also expressed concerns on the situation in Kashmir.
“The situation in Kashmir has also not normalised since the abrogation of Article 370 of the Constitution in August. The five-month Internet shutdown in Kashmir is the longest ever in a democracy, and has left people’s lives, jobs, and the economy in a more dire situation,” he said.
Following the abrogation of Article 370, which ended the special status of Jammu and Kashmir and bifurcated it into two union territories, various restrictions – including a ban on mobile phones and Internet – were imposed in Jammu and Kashmir to maintain law and order.
The Indian government has defended the restrictions, which are being gradually lifted in a phased manner, on the grounds that they were imposed to prevent Pakistan from creating more mischief through proxies and terrorists following the abrogation of Article 370.

THE body set up to end the NHS postcode lottery has failed to improve the healthcare of patients, the drugs industry said yesterday.
Although Nice, the National Institute of Clinical Excellence, was intended to end confusion over drugs rationing, there are concerns that British patients are missing out on life-saving drugs available elsewhere in Europe.
Many doctors and health authorities wrongly used the existence of a Nice review into a drug as a reason not to prescribe it, the industry said.
In a separate attack, cancer charities said Nice was failing to listen to patients and called for a review into how drugs were appraised.
Evidence about "Nice blight" will be presented to MPs today by patient groups during a Health Select Committee hearing. The pharmaceutical industry will hand over its detailed dossier of complaints next week.
Nice was set up in 1998 to end the NHS drugs postcode lottery by advising on the cost effectiveness of new treatments.
Although the results of its appraisals are only recommendations, the Government promised that Nice would end regional differences in the availability of NHS treatments. But according to the Association of British Pharmaceutical Industry, Nice may have made things worse.
Once Nice had announced that it was appraising a drug, doctors and health authorities tended to stop prescribing it, even if it had been proven to be effective, the association said. Dr Trevor Jones, the director general of the APBI, said British scientists had led the world in drugs research.
"The appraisals that Nice has been carrying out have resulted in a blight on some of these advances," he said.
"The fact that Nice is going to make an appraisal results in a lot of health authorities and physicians simply saying that until they have made an appraisal, they won't do anything." Even when Nice did make a decision, there was no extra money to allow health authorities to pay for the drugs, he said.
The criticisms came as the ABPI launched a review into cancer drugs. According to the report, Target Cancer, the next development in the battle against cancer, will come from vaccines.

Wojciech Szczesny 7/10
A spectator throughout the first-half, but then alert to deny Rooney and Nani with vital second-half saves.
Bacary Sagna 7
The PFA’s right-back of the year got forward regularly and, despite his erratic delivery, was a persistent threat.
Laurent Koscielny 7
Dealt well with the movement of both Rooney and Hernandez and lifted crowd with first-half challenge on Fabio.
Johan Djourou 7
Arsenal’s best defender this season, but was forced off in the 68th minute after landing awkwardly from an attempted clearance.
Gael Clichy 7
Outstanding in limiting the impact of Nani but fortunate not to concede a penalty with late challenge on Owen.
Alex Song 8
Screened the defence with discipline and intelligence to negate United and ensure that Arsenal dominated possession.
Aaron Ramsey 7
His first Arsenal goal since January 2010 and was excellent alongside Song at the heart of Arsenal’s midfield.
Theo Walcott 6
Seemed to play in a slightly more central position in support of Van Persie and his pace helped keep Manchester United on the back foot.
Jack Wilshere 7
Granted more licence to get forward in the absence of Cesc Fabregas although his finishing remains his one relative weakness.
Samir Nasri 7
His pace and understanding with Clichy was constantly threatening but forced off at half-time with a hamstring injury
Robin van Persie 7
Denied a first-half chance by the arm of Vidic and showed real poise to provide the assist for Ramsey’s winner.
Subs: Andrei Arshavin replaced Nasri at half-time and was a calming presence in possession. Sebastien Squillaci was forced on for Djourou while Emmanuel Eboue substituted Walcott as Arsenal held their nerve.
Edwin van der Sar 6
Had few saves to make despite Arsenal’s initial control of possession and could do little about Ramsey’s decisive finish.
More impressive attacking rather than defending and broke forward to create Manchester United’s best first first-half chance.
Rio Ferdinand 7
A calming presence in the Manchester United defence and was helpless to prevent Ramsey’s late run from midfield.
Nemanja Vidic 6
Fortunate to have one horribly misplaced clearance unpunished and then got even luckier when his handball went unnoticed.
Patrice Evra 6
Made one vital first-half interception but his attacking threat was generally negated by the pace of Walcott and Sagna.
Preferred to Antonio Valencia on the right but was a peripheral influence as Clichy pressed forward down his flank.
Michael Carrick 5
Excellent last Tuesday against Schalke but his limitations in a game of frenetic pace were evident here.
Selected in central midfield in order to give Ryan Giggs a rest but did little to advance his case for a Champions League place.
Ji-Sung Park 6
Delivered a typically industrious performance but another Manchester United players whose final ball was lacking.
Wayne Rooney 6
One of his more frustrating afternoons and, in the current climate, risked further punishment for his protestations at first-half booking
Javier Hernandez 5
Largely subdued and, from his two best chances, was just unable to get onto the end of crosses from Nani and Fabio
Subs: Antonio Valencia, Michael Owen and Dimitar Berbatov were all introduced as Sir Alex Ferguson tried to inject some creativity to a flat performance.
Owen was unfortunate not to win a penalty after provoking a clumsy Clichy challenge.

Meals on Wheels of Contra Costa is a program that supports homebound seniors by delivering nutritionally balanced meals right to their doors. But this food delivery program also plays an essential role in preventing hospital readmissions in Contra Costa County.
Hospital readmissions generally reflect poorly on hospitals because they show that adequate care and follow-up care might not have been done. They put unnecessary strain on the hospital equipment, staff, and are hard on patients who are struggling with their health.
But through a comprehensive program designed to support seniors, Meals on Wheels plays a crucial role in preventing hospital readmissions among residents of Contra Costa County.
Understanding Hospital Readmissions in Contra Costa County
Hospital readmission is a patient who is readmitted within 30 days of being initially discharged. Hospital readmission rates in Contra Costa County are on par with national rates and, in some areas, better. These numbers show that Contra Costa County is keeping up with the national average for readmission rates due to the hard work of medical professionals and community support, including organizations like Meals on Wheels.
Several common causes for hospital readmission can be addressed by offering senior patients a little more help. These can include:
- Inadequate Nutrition: Eating balanced meals helps your body heal faster from sickness or injury. When seniors return home from the hospital with limited funds or mobility, they may be unable to afford nutritious meals or even get to the store to buy ingredients. These limitations make it harder for them to recover from a hospital stay and cause their recovery period to be longer. This, in turn, increases their chances of readmission.
- Lack of Social Support and Community Engagement: Family, friends, and community support is essential when a patient is recovering from a hospital stay. Senior patients may have limited mobility for a few weeks after a hospital stay or even permanently. Having a support system to help buy food, cook meals, transport them to doctor’s visits, and even offer social interaction is important to recovery and long-term health.
- Slip and fall Accidents: Once a senior has had a bad fall, the chance of them having another increases significantly. Additionally, as patients age, they heal slower, and their mobility is severely impacted. Once a patient has had a bad fall, they are likely to have another fall and will have to be readmitted to a hospital.
Hospital readmissions are tough on patients, especially older adults already limited in many areas. This process puts financial, mental, and physical strain on patients who already need family and community support in their day-to-day lives.
This puts more strain on these patients’ families, who may have to transport loved ones to and from the hospital and their primary care physician, pick up prescriptions and care for them at home. Readmissions also put a strain on the hospital system. Resources like beds, medical equipment, and personnel are used for patients who shouldn’t have had to come back to the hospital.
To reduce the rate of hospital readmissions and keep the rates down, hospitals and the Contra Costa community need to work together to form effective strategies to help all patients receive the care they need at the hospital and at home.
Meals on Wheels Program in Contra Costa County
The Contra Costa branch of Meal on Wheels is dedicated to supporting our partners with fundraising services. Our partners support homebound seniors who are nutritionally at-risk and cannot prepare nutritious meals for themselves. This meal service helps seniors who need support in their day-to-day lives because of age or health-related limitations. Our partners and hardworking volunteers deliver daily or weekly meals to these seniors’ homes. This program provides food, social contact, and a check-in.
By creating partnerships and collaborations with local organizations, this comprehensive program looks out for vulnerable seniors in all areas of their lives. Local programs and volunteers are the backbone of this organization.
The key objective of Meals on Wheels is to bring nutritionally balanced meals to homebound seniors. But the program offers support that spills over into all aspects of a senior’s life. Nutritional support, social support, and fall prevention are just three ways that Meals of Wheels helps reduce the rate of hospital readmissions in Contra Costa County.
Nutritional Support and Hospital Readmissions
Meeting nutritional needs is incredibly important for everyone, especially seniors with changing dietary needs and health problems. Studies have shown that nutrition plays a vital role in how well patients recover from hospital stays and that addressing nutritional needs head-on can help reduce hospital readmissions. After a hospital stay, seniors should eat balanced meals that meet all their dietary needs.
The body cannot heal properly without the right vitamins and minerals. Seniors experiencing little nutritional support are more likely to be readmitted to a hospital because they will not recover well after their last visit.
By offering senior meal delivery services to seniors in need, Meal on Wheels ensures that these citizens get all the vitamins and minerals they need in prepared meals to recover from hospital visits and stay healthy in general. They even consider dietary restrictions to ensure everyone is cared for properly.
Social Support and Community Engagement
The community’s support is essential for a patient’s physical and mental health. Having a network of friends and family means that there are people who can help the patient in all areas of their lives. They can help cook, clean, and offer transportation to doctor’s visits.
Having social support also means that patients have someone to turn to when there is a problem or need company. Social connections are essential in preventing mental health problems like depression, especially in homebound seniors.
The volunteers who deliver meals to seniors on their route do more than deliver food. They also provide valuable social interaction. When surveyed about how Meals on Wheels deliveries helped them, many seniors said that the social interaction they got from delivery drivers was often the only interaction they would get in a day. Seniors receiving meals and volunteer delivery drivers both reflected on positive experiences. Having someone drop by to check in each day is an invaluable experience for homebound seniors that can alleviate anxiety.
Fall Prevention and Home Safety Assessments
Fall prevention is one of the most vital steps in reducing hospital readmissions. Each fall makes another fall more likely. Falling once causes an injury that takes time to heal and reduces mobility in the future. And for seniors who live alone, a fall can be especially dangerous if they cannot call for help.
When drivers deliver meals to seniors, they also perform a check-in to make sure everything is ok. During this check-in, they might ask the seniors if they need help with anything or if there are any safety or mobility issues that need to be addressed. An intake officer might address these issues when a senior first signs up for a delivery plan as well.
An intake officer or delivery driver may only sometimes be able to help right then, but they can pass messages along or point the senior in the right direction to get the help they need. Ensuring a senior’s house is as safe as possible helps prevent falls and readmissions to the hospital.
Meals on Wheels of Contra Costa
Meals on Wheels is proud to be helping the Contra Costa community by supporting seniors and helping to reduce hospital readmission rates. Meals on Wheels offers meals that support good nutrition that battle senior hunger and allow previously hospitalized seniors to recover faster. The check-ins performed by volunteer drivers also provide social interactions that give seniors the community support they need to thrive. And, of course, check-ins help ensure that seniors are safe in their own homes and prevent falls.
All of these together reduce the hospital readmission rates in Contra Costa County. But this is only possible with the support of the community. Donations and volunteers allow Meals on Wheels to do what they do. Consider supporting the seniors in your area by donating or volunteering in your free time. Your contribution could make a real difference in the life of seniors in your neighborhood.
Community-based initiatives are so important in creating better healthcare outcomes. We can create a lot of fundamental changes when a whole community works together. With your help, Meals on Wheels can transform the lives of seniors and reduce the hospital readmission rates in Contra Costa County.

Using Bitcoin to conduct day-to-day transactions would increase institutions' exposure to credit volatility, says the credit agency.
Bukele’s Bitcoin plans have now been publicly ridiculed by world credit agencies as a result of protests, lawsuits, and criticism from multilateral organizations. In line with Moody’s concern earlier this month, Fitch Ratings likewise recently expressed concerns over possible adverse effects on El Salvador’s financial institutions and insurance sector if Bitcoin is adopted.
El Salvador’s new Bitcoin law leaves institutions with two options for survival: Keep their crypto assets, or convert their entire infrastructure into a BTC exchange as soon as they receive them.
Using Bitcoin to conduct day-to-day transactions would increase institutions’ exposure to credit volatility, says the credit agency. The price volatility of bitcoin will severely impact insurers who hold it on their balance sheets for extended periods, they said. “This will increase their asset risk, which results in negative credit scores,” they wrote.
As a result of sovereign bonds’ poor rating, insurers are already exposed to a considerable amount of risk, and that risk would only be exacerbated by holding Bitcoins.
On the other hand, institutions could adopt a fiat-only policy, which would mean selling incoming BTC to the market immediately since El Salvador wants mandatory Bitcoin acceptance. Besides incurring costs, such sales would also entail management costs – and that would entail less investment in other areas of the business.
‘It is not clear at this time whether the regulatory and operational framework will enable insurers to immediately convert bitcoin to U.S dollar so that they can minimize their holding period,’ says the report. The adoption of the pioneer crypto asset is expected to increase insurance company IT, operating, and administrative costs.
In addition to the adoption of new internal technology protocols, security and anti-fraud measures, and training of staff to handle cryptocurrencies, such costs may also include the adoption of new internal technology protocols.
Previously, Fitch noted that the country’s fiscal deficit, coupled with the IMF’s concern over BTC, isn’t helping either.
The fact that Bukale controls the country’s legislature made it relatively easy for him to pass such a law. As a result, Fitch says, all companies had little time to prepare for the changes, and the law was rushed.

In its response, the OAG said it had received complaints about whether the Council had appropriately considered options, particularly around refurbishing and redeveloping the current town hall.
“Because of the project’s significance, and the concerns raised with us, we decided to look at aspects of the project. We have not carried out a full inquiry. However, we have some suggestions about processes and documentation relating to the issues we looked at,” the Office said in a statement.
It had also received a complaint suggesting that four councillors who were trustees of Masterton Trust Lands Trust may have had a conflict of interest in the project.
“In this case, the Council appears to have had processes in place to identify conflicts of interest. It took advice about the best way to manage the conflicts of interest it had identified and considered that advice. Those steps were reasonable and appropriate,” the OAG response states.
However, it said the councillors’ decision to participate in some civic facility decisions and not others had the potential to be confusing to the public or those wanting to understand the process.
“On this point, we note that the councillors did not formally record their interest and their decision to participate in the minutes for the Council’s 2021-31 long-term plan deliberations (although their interests and their decision to participate were recorded in email correspondence between elected members).”
“As we say in our conflicts of interest guidance, the public needs to have confidence that decisions involving activities carried out in the public interest or paid for using public funds are made impartially, for the right reasons, and not influenced by personal interests or ulterior motives.
“Formally recording interests and how any conflicts between those interests will be managed supports trust and confidence in the Council’s decision-making process. It also gives reassurance that elected members are acting in the interests of the community,” the OAG said.
The Office found that the Council had considered how it might responsibly spend ratepayers’ money on the civic facility and on 26 June, 2019, voted to progress the option of a new civic facility to public consultation, despite advice from the project steering group not to proceed at that time.
“The Steering Group noted that ‘there is not a demonstrated need for the project, it does not represent value for money and the group has significant concerns about the affordability of the project’,” the OAG response states.
This advice had been made publicly available on the Council’s website, it said.
“The resolutions for the 26 June 2019 Council meeting show that the Council considered the paper from the Steering Group. However, there is no record of the Council’s reaction to the Steering Group’s concerns or why it did not follow the Steering Group’s advice.”
“Elected members can make decisions that differ from recommendations put to them. However, where a decision is made contrary to advice, it is advisable to record the reasons for the decision in order to be able to evidence the rationale for it. This step can allay any potential concerns that advice was ignored, or not properly considered, when making decisions about spending public money. It also supports public trust and confidence.
“In the future, the Council should ensure that it records the reasons for key decisions, particularly where those decisions differ from advice it has received. The Council told us that, since these events, it has taken steps to improve the transparency of decision-making, including keeping fuller minutes of key discussions and decisions.”
Mayor Patterson said improvements to processes suggested by OAG were already being addressed by the Council.
“I welcome the Office of the Auditor-General’s response and note that the OAG has acknowledged changes already made by the Council.”
“The Council now aims to provider fuller minutes on the reasons for key decisions and has organised further conflict of interest training for elected members and staff,” she said.
At a meeting this week, a majority of Councillors voted in favour of reviewing the project but continuing with complementary work.
While originally being costed at $30.8 million, a recent Council report has stated the cost of the new facility could blow out to more than twice that amount.
The next steps for the project look set to be a matter for the new Council, which is set to be elected in October.
The OAG said that given the significance of the civic facility project to the Council, an OAG-appointed auditor will take an ongoing interest in the project.

Initially labeling mandate as a tax could have thwarted ACA controversy
“Most health care lawyers thought if it was called a tax at the very beginning, there wouldn’t have been such a controversy,” Kennedy said.
For insurance companies, the result of the court ruling will be a benefit because it drives more business to them, but the companies also have to take on pre-existing conditions, Kennedy said.
Since the court is required to review the act and similar legislation as if it is constitutional, the court “recast the mandate” as a tax to find that is constitutional, said Bruce Lamb, health care lawyer at Gunster in Tampa.
The same kind of review was applied to the part of the Affordable Care Act regarding expansion of Medicaid. Basically, the court held that the expansion was constitutional as long as states can continue to receive their current funding if they opt out of the expansion, he said.
“It’s not all or nothing,” Lamb said. “The availability of health care can be expanded, but states cannot be penalized by taking away their existing funding.”

Roger Penske to receive Presidential Medal of Freedom award
NASCAR, IndyCar and IMSA team owner Roger Penske will receive one of the nation’s highest civilian honors, the Presidential Medal of Freedom, President Donald Trump announced Thursday.
“He’s very thrilled to be getting it,” Trump said of Penske during an appearance with Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau at the White House.
Penske will become the second person in the motorsports industry to receive the high honor. Legendary NASCAR Hall of Famer Richard Petty received the Presidential Medal of Freedom in 1992 from President George H. W. Bush.
Team Penske tweeted the following statement:
No date for the medal presentation has been set yet.
Trump and Penske have been close friends for many years.
“He’s a great gentleman,” Trump said of Penske. “I’ve known him for a long time. A very brilliant gentleman.”
Earlier this month, Trump hosted and honored Penske and Indianapolis 500 winner Simon Pagenaud and his team in a White House ceremony. It was the third time Penske has been to the White House in the last year, having previously visited for ceremonies honoring Will Power’s 2018 Indy 500 win and Joey Logano winning the 2018 NASCAR Cup championship.
Team Penske has won over 530 races – including 18 Indianapolis 500 and two Daytona 500 victories – and 34 championships across all forms of motorsports in its 53-year history.
Penske is founder and chairman of Penske Corp., an international company that has revenues of over $31 billion and employs over 63,000 people.
Trump has awarded the Medal of Freedom to several others during the first 2 ½ years of his presidency, including golfer Tiger Woods.

The jail system is in “serious crisis” with overcrowding affecting rehabilitation of offenders, the chief inspector of prisons has warned.
Anne Owers said some jails have become “riskier places to manage” because of the overcrowding problem.
Many male prisoners had mental health issues that would be better addressed in secure hospitals, Ms Owers said.
A Home Office spokesman said it shared her concerns on “a number of issues” and was “addressing the problems”.
There are nearly 80,000 prisoners in England and Wales, with some inmates held in police stations and court cells to ease overcrowding.

In 1977, the IFLA (International Federation of Library Associations and Institutions) published UNIMARC: Universal MARC Format, followed by a second edition in 1980 and a UNIMARC Handbook in 1983. These publications focused primarily on the cataloguing of monographs and serials, while taking into account international efforts towards the standardization of bibliographic information reflected in the ISBDs (International Standard Bibliographic Descriptions).
In the mid-1980s, UNIMARC expanded to cover documents other than monographs and serials. A new UNIMARC Manual was produced in 1987, with an updated description of UNIMARC. By this time UNIMARC had been adopted by several bibliographic agencies as their in-house format.

The Conrad N. Hilton Foundation has announced three grants totaling $875,000 to organizations working to address homelessness and improve the lives of foster youth in Los Angeles County.
The Weingart Center Association and the United Way of Greater Los Angeles (UWGLA) will each receive $300,000 to expand services for the homeless and those in danger of becoming homeless. The association will use the funds to support the development of a state-of-the-art community health center in downtown Los Angeles to serve the poor — both housed and homeless — and workers as part of the Skid Row Homeless Healthcare Initiative.
UWGLA will use its grant to support more than thirty organizations providing emergency services in the county, where the unemployment rate is currently 10.5 percent, to help prevent people from falling into homelessness. The funds will pay for motel vouchers, rent subsidies, meals, groceries, and emergency and transitional shelter beds. "Many individuals and families in Los Angeles are in danger of falling through the cracks at this difficult period," said Hilton Foundation president and CEO Steven M. Hilton. "One of our goals is to provide help before situations become emergencies."
In addition, the foundation awarded $275,000 to the University of Pennsylvania for a study of the condition of young adults who have aged out of foster care in Los Angeles County. The study, which will be led by Dennis Culhane, a professor of social policy at the university, will help determine the efficacy and cost-effectiveness of current programs and which interventions best serve youth leaving the system. "Many of our youth transitioning out of foster care also find themselves in very vulnerable situations," Hilton said, "so we hope to find ways to better assure their success."

Social Responsibility for New York Corporations
- by: Care2.com
- recipient: Governor Andrew Cuomo
Too often, corporations place greed over societal good. But Benefit Corporation legislation would make it possible for companies to create structures that are both profitable and socially responsible.
This week, Governor Cuomo will have the chance to pass a bill that will make New York the 6th state to allow businesses to operate as Benefit Corporations. Under the legislation, benefit corporations would be required to pursue a positive material impact on society and the environment as determined against a third party standard.
The third party standard would encourage companies to pay a living wage, provide health benefits, and use renewable materials, in addition to dedicating resources to the arts, the environment, public health, or other societal benefits.
Help show New York that corporations can be both socially friendly and highly profitable. Tell Governor Cuomo to pass Benefit Corporation legislation today!
Sign PetitionSign Petition
I am writing to urge you to sign the legislation that would allow businesses to organize as Benefit Corporations. This legislation, which has already been unanimously passed by the New York Senate and Assembly, would encourage companies to pursue a positive material impact on society and the environment. It would also push an increase in corporations' purposefulness, accountability, and transparency with regard to society and the environment.
[Your comments here]
With the signing of this legislation, New York would become the 6th state to show corporations that profitability and public responsibility can co-exist in the business world.

Assassin’s Creed Valhalla Release Date Has Leaked
Assassin’s Creed Valhalla release date has been leaked through an Instagram ad that also showed brief snippets of gameplay.
Ubisoft is releasing their next Assassin’s Creed game later in November. There is no official release date given for the game so far but an official Instagram ad that was later removed might have leaked the release date ahead of the announcement during the Ubisoft Forward event.
According to the deleted Instagram ad that was saved by a reddit user, the game will be out on November 17, 2020. This release date is for the PS4, Xbox One, and PC versions of the game, however, it is possible that it might coincide with the launch of the next-generation of consoles.
Sony and Microsoft are both launching their next consoles in Holiday 2020. Assassin’s Creed Valhalla will support both next-generation consoles however this release date hasn’t been officially revealed by Ubisoft so it is just an assumption for now.
Here is an overview of the game from Ubisoft.
Become Eivor, a mighty Viking raider and lead your clan from the harsh shores of Norway to a new home amid the lush farmlands of ninth-century England. Explore a beautiful, mysterious open world where you’ll face brutal enemies, raid fortresses, build your clan’s new settlement, and forge alliances to win glory and earn a place in Valhalla.
England in the age of the Vikings is a fractured nation of petty lords and warring kingdoms. Beneath the chaos lies a rich and untamed land waiting for a new conqueror. Will it be you?
Sail across the icy North Sea to discover and conquer the broken kingdoms of England. Immerse yourself in activities like hunting, fishing, dice, and drinking games, or engage in traditional Norse competitions like flyting – or, as it’s better known, verbally devastating rivals through the art of the Viking rap battle.
Create and customize your own mercenary Vikings to share online, and reap the spoils when they fight alongside your friends in their own sagas. Recruit mercenaries created by other players, and add their strength to your forces.
Assassin’s Creed Valhalla will be out on November 17. 2020, for PS4, Xbox One, and PC. It is possible that it might support free upgrade to PS5 and Xbox Series X just like the recently leaked Far Cry 6.

Gerald Duckworth & Co Ltd 2006
Nutshell blurb: This book is a collection of stories in interview format from the survivors of a zombie apocalypse.
I really liked the idea behind this book. The stories were interesting, diverse and some of them were quite hair-raising. I liked the idea of having a collection of interviews from all over the world because it gave us a view of what was happening in more than one place. Many times, post-apocalyptic stories focus on the survival of a small group of people or even on just one person. This view of the zombie invasion gives us a great look at it from many different angles and it was really cool to read about the different ordeals various people went through.
I’m not sure if this mode of storytelling really works for this genre, however. I feel that the whole point of zombies is that they’re scary. They’re meant to terrify us into setting up fortifications in our houses and to start rigorous training exercises to ensure that we’re in tip top shape in case of a zombie infestation. (Or is that just me…?) Anyway, for me, this book lacked immediacy. We are so far removed from any action as we’re having it recounted to us by people who survived. Which is another thing. They survived. Their lives may have been in danger during the stories they tell, but the fact that they’re sitting there telling us about their experiences means that they’re alive. That’s another bit of immediacy taken away from me. (Not that I wish for people to die, but I certainly want it to be a possibility.)
I also saw the film last week. I’m really glad that I didn’t pay attention to the critics (I seldom do because I like to make up my own mind about things) because I really enjoyed it. There were a lot of complaints (which I read AFTER I saw the film) about the ‘soft’ ending (which I won’t spoil for you) but I didn’t have a problem with it. It did wrap things up a bit neatly but I don’t mind. I and found it to be an enjoyable way to spend a couple of hours. I was entertained.
The book and the film are two completely different animals. One has nothing to do with the other except the fact that they both have the same name.
Off in tangent land and speaking of names… Every time I looked at the book, my eyes would land on the surname of the author (Brooks) and I would see the M of his first name and my brain would instantly think of Mel Brooks. How cool would it be if he wrote a zombie novel? Food for thought, people.

Alteration in the temperature of the Isoton diluent in a Coulter model S counter over a range of possible laboratory working temperatures produced a change in the mean corpuscular volume using EDTA and dipotassium acid citrate dextrose blood and a commercial control, 4C. Contamination of the Isoton diluent with hypochlorite solution, used to clean the Coulter model S, may increase the mean corpuscular volume of EDTA blood without altering other measured parameters. Attention to both these points is required in assessing quality and calibrating the machine.

'Our Carnival culture — the arts — is gonna die with our parents' generation'
That's one Toronto steelpan artist's fearful prediction, but she'll fight to keep the music playing
When I was 11 years old, I attended a summer camp with my cousins. It was held in a church basement in the east end of Toronto, and I don't remember much about our time there beyond the friendship bracelets we made and the smile of a boy I had a secret crush on. But one thing always stuck with me: a steelpan lesson. I remember the excitement I felt learning the basics of the instrument. I loved the sounds that emanated from the steel, the discovery of its orchestral range and the fact that we were able to play Bob Marley songs for hours on end. My lessons ended when camp was over — but each Carnival season leaves me itching to return.
An instrument created from the discarded containers of industrial waste, the steelpan is a pitch percussion instrument. It's the only major acoustic instrument to be invented in the last century, and its creation story is riddled in myth and legend. But what is not debated is its indelible influence on Carnival traditions and the musical sounds of the Caribbean.
Steelpan is the ultimate community arts experience.- Joy Lapps-Lewis, musician
The Toronto Caribbean Festival was last weekend, and steelpan was in the air. Alongside calypso music and the masquerade, pan comple

What orchestras arguably need most of all these days are skilled, talented and enthusiastic individuals who can bring the experience of orchestral music to young people. Oddly, they tend to be a small and rare bunch. This is because their abilities need to be spread so widely, across education, conducting, composing, and perhaps above all, communication.

After a fiercely contested bidding war at the ASO’s 80th Birthday Party in October last year, Didy McLaurin was the winner of a Conducting with Guy Noble experience.
This experience took place on Wednesday 5 April 2017. Didy rehearsed with the orchestra in the morning, before the big performance in the evening at the Adelaide Town Hall. It was a full house and many of Didy’s friends were in the audience (having booked out a large portion of the front row).
Why did you decide to bid for the Conducting with Guy Noble experience?
I thought it would be a fun thing to do, I knew that Guy had a great sense of humour. Maybe I had a secret desire to see just what it is like up there! I did wonder what on earth I had let myself in for when I awoke the next morning…
What was it like learning to conduct from Guy?
We had a few laughs and he told me to put some energy into it! He said I would be okay, it’s just a march – dom, dom, dom, dom etc.
Were you nervous before the performance?
I was extremely nervous and wondered how on earth I had got myself into this situation – what if I fell or tripped or made a complete idiot of myself? Waiting backstage was the worst part! But ASO staff Alex [Bassett] & Stevan [Pavlovic] tried their best to divert my thoughts and kept telling me all would be okay.
How did you find the experience up on stage?
Once I had my back to the audience and had to concentrate on the orchestra I felt a little more comfortable. In fact, I really enjoyed it! I was just worried when we were going to stop – I couldn’t quite remember how the piece ended so I was very pleased when they finished and I actually had my hands in the right position (sort of)! The percussionist [Gregory Rush] was terrific and gave me encouraging looks each time the cymbals came in, it really made me laugh.
What feedback have you received since the performance?
My new name amongst friends is Maestro McLaurin! They were very impressed that I had my own dressing room and received the beautiful bunch of Tynte flowers. Several friends have said they enjoyed the concert so much that they are going to book for the remainder of the Classics Unwrapped series. I am still getting comments from strangers who were there on the night and loved the whole episode.
Thank you to the ASO for the opportunity – although scary, it has been a lot of fun and I did have a lot of laughs.

"It's really refreshing to meet young people who are excited about our music and what we do at the ASO; we're not often a strongly present demographic at symphonic concerts so I feel like there's a really noticeable change in energy in the audience at ReMastered concerts, which somehow feels really tangible and exciting as a performer!"

If produce prices prod you to grow your own food, now's the time to start. Longer spring days and warmer weather equal planting season. 48 Hours reporter Dawn Picken spoke with locals who say they're saving money while sowing seeds of sustainability.
It's Tuesday evening when we reach Bernie Hornfeck on his home phone. He's recently back from Apumoana Marae, where he has helped plant and tend crops such as corn and sweet potatoes at the mara kai, or food garden. "I like having my own vegetables out of the garden. I like the exercise. I like trying different methods of growing things and trying to improve the range of vegetables and plants."
The 87-year-old says he's been gardening more than 60 years and has a 225 sq m plot with fruit trees at home. A child of the Great Depression, his reverence for soil started in his native England and continued after he bought a section in Lynmore in 1950. "I think we've lost a couple of generations of gardeners since people moved to the cities and both Mum and Dad had a job, there wasn't time for gardening. It was more convenient to go to the supermarket. So I think a lot of kids these days have lost the art."
Bob Te Aonui, who co-ordinates the Apumoana marae garden, says he relies on Bernie and resident kaumatua to teach younger people about gardening. "They're some of our best gardeners. They've been doing it since they were little children. It's getting them to teach us better ways of getting good gardens. Whatever food they grow, they can help themselves to subsidise their income and their retirement, as well."
Denise La Grouw is another local teaching the art of gardening. She runs workshops at schools and for Aratika Cancer Trust. She says frost can hit the Rotorua area as late as November, but it's time to start seedlings and prepare garden beds. "Use food scraps and straw to get the garden revitalised and ready for planting."
La Grouw says anyone can garden with minimal costs using environmentally friendly methods. And if you plan well, she says you could spend as little as 15 minutes each week in the dirt after establishing a garden.
"Think about where you put particular foods - lettuce and cherry tomatoes, put a lot closer to where you're walking. Pumpkins, you harvest once a year, put where you don't go often. It's easier to look after an organic garden than one that's not." Denise says the no-dig method is easy for beginners because it tends to mulch itself and suppresses weeds. She encourages planting crops that go well together such as tomatoes and basil, and to look for easy-care plants. "Garlic grows exceptionally well in Rotorua. It's a half-hour planting and a half-hour harvesting, and you don't do much in-between."
Andrea Green, a mum of four who works for Good Neighbour Trust co-ordinating Tauranga's community gardens, says gardening helps people and our planet. "Soil health and organic produce and being conscious of what we're putting into our bodies is really important. For me, the main thing with organics is coming away from industrial farming methods of using pesticides."
The Welcome Bay garden started last November. Today, Andrea teaches up to 150 school children a week how to sow seeds, spread fertiliser and pull weeds. Husband David, looks around at the beehive of busy children, saying, "It's not just about growing plants, it's about growing community."
Dozens of community gardens are spread throughout the Bay of Plenty, allowing novices and keen gardeners alike to learn tips, share seeds, compost and crops. La Grouw says the children who need gardening knowledge most come from families who can't afford supplies. "You don't have to spend anything. You can build a garden from what's around you. I have seeds saved, they're free - it's a matter of connecting with people in the community. If any child in this town wants to put in a garden, I'm happy to help them."
La Grouw encourages people to plant foods they enjoy eating. She suggests trying kamo kamo ("It tastes like zucchini"), courgette, cherry tomatoes, peas, beans, corn, strawberries and lettuces. "I like having things you can pick and pluck and chuck in a salad - a mesclun mix, with red lettuce, green lettuce, and in-between, plant spring onions." She says you can constantly pick spinach and beetroot leaves as well as raspberries. "You have significant savings, because you're picking and plucking, you're not wasting anything."
Waiariki Bay of Plenty Polytechnic horticulture tutor Steve Webb says his favourite summer crops are courgettes, tomatoes, chillies, capsicums, pumpkin and beans. He calls them easy crops with minimal upkeep. Steve says there may be an initial investment for gardeners, as seeds and seedlings can cost several dollars each, plus additional spend for tools and possibly fertiliser if you're not generating your own compost. Steve says some crops, like leeks, are easy to grow and good value. "At $2 each or more to buy...it is like having a row of $2 coins." However, Steve says broccoli seedlings ends up costing about $3 per plant, which then take time to grow. "But what are you comparing? I have grown organic, nutrient-dense food. We all know it tastes so much better when it is home-grown and fresh. What is that worth to a family?"
Horticulture student and retiree Don Butler and his wife, Johanna, estimate their garden is worth around $30 a week in produce. "We're vegetarian. We don't buy anything in the way of greens. We live off what we grow," says Don. "We'll plant potatoes shortly and we've got leeks growing, broad beans, broccoli, cauliflower. We'll plant spinach and more broccoli when the weather gets a little bit warmer."
La Grouw says cultivating your own food has potential to save a "huge amount of money", unless you buy everything from soil to seedlings to raised beds, which makes the return on investment relatively low. "However, if you learn to garden, to use nature's resources so you don't need to purchase all these things, [if] you save, share seeds, and save, share and trade garden produce, then the returns are huge."
Back at the Welcome Bay community garden, David Green hands me a leaf. "Here, try this." It tastes like tangy lettuce. It tastes more-ish. "Lemon sorrel," he says. Ella, 13, chews a piece, asking her mum, "Can we get some of this at home?"

Nutrient Dense Foodhttp://www.koanga.org.nz/knowledgebase/grow-nutrient-dense-food/the-path-to-nutrient-dense-food/
New Zealand food prices posted their biggest monthly increase in at least three years in August as produce and grocery items got more expensive.
Food prices increased a seasonally adjusted 1.2 percent in August, snapping three months of cheaper goods, and led higher by a 1.7 percent rise in fruit and vegetable prices, Statistics New Zealand said. The monthly spike in produce prices was driven by seasonally higher prices for tomatoes, lettuce and cabbage, while banana prices climbed 22 percent to a record high. - Source: NBR

Condolences to the friends and family of Dwayne McDuffie
Tue, 02/22/2011 - 8:33pm
"Dwayne McDuffie left a lasting legacy on the world of comics that many writers can only aspire to. He will not only be remembered as the extremely gifted writer whose scripts have been realized as comic books, in television shows and on the silver screen, but as the creator or co-creator of so many of the much-loved Milestone characters, including Static Shock. The industry has lost a true talent.
Our sincerest condolences go out to the family and many friends he leaves behind."
- Dan DiDio, Co-Publisher, DC Entertainment

When the friends first met Rachel Green, she was young, naive and spoiled. That fateful day, she had just narrowly escaped from marrying Barry Farber. Rachel's explanation for why she didn't marry Barry was, "Because I was more turned on by a gravy boat." Monica ended up taking Rachel under her wing after her rich father cut her off. Rachel was forced to cut up all of her credit cards. Rachel tried to find a job but was laughed at at every single interview she attended. Clearly not fazed, Rachel found a job at Central Perk, where all the friends hung out. She would have this job for another couple of years.
Ross, Monica's elder brother, who had been in love with Rachel for many years, finally got up the courage to ask if she'd like to go out some time. Rachel said yes, but nothing ever came of it. Nothing happened between Ross and Rachel for a very long time. Ross pined for her for a year, but even when coaxed by friends Chandler and Joey to just tell her how he felt, Ross remained adamant that Rachel would reject his advances.
Rachel went on to date a number of guys, which only made Ross more and more jealous. One was Paulo, but their relationship was mostly sexual, according to Rachel. At the end of Series One, it appeared that Ross had been about to confess his love for Rachel, but he was called away at the last minute. During Rachel's birthday party, Chandler accidently let slip that Ross was in love with Rachel. This shocking revelation caused Rachel to question her feelings for Ross, and in the end she ran to the airport to confront him about it, only to see him walking out with another woman on his arm.
By the end of Series One, Rachel had settled down and made a new life for herself with the help of her friends, particularly Monica. However, the revelation that Ross was seeing another woman, Julie, caused Rachel to become moody and aggresive during Series Two. She despised Julie and would talk about her constantly with Monica and Phoebe behind the other woman's back. Finally, Ross found out about Rachel's feelings for him and confronted her. After a heated arguement, Ross stormed out of Central Perk, only to return seconds later and share a passionate kiss with Rachel. This marked the start of their long, turbulent on and off relationship.
After this, it seemed as though they would finally begin their relationship together. However, Chandler and Joey encouraged Ross to make a list of all the good and bad things about Rachel and Julie, as he was torn between the two. Rachel, of course, found out about the list and refused to speak to Ross. For a while, it seemed as if Rachel was over Ross, until the night when she and the other friends watched the video of Monica and Rachel's prom, when Rachel's date never showed, and Ross was encouraged to go with her, despite his reluctance. However, at the last minute, Rachel's date arrived and they left, leaving Ross heartbroken. This caused Rachel to forgive Ross and the two of them finally started their relationship.
For the rest of Series Two and up until mid-way Series Three, Ross and Rachel were a very happy couple. Then, the jealousy started involving Rachel and her new work collegue Mark. Rachel had gotten a new job at Bloomingdale's and was working with closely Mark, much to Ross's fury. He was also annoyed by the fact that Rachel was working so much that he hardly got to spend time with her.
Ross would always try to make a point that he was worried about Rachel's growing friendship with Mark, until finally the two had an argument after Ross came, unannounced, to her office when she was completely stressed out.
Rachel said to Ross that maybe they needed to take a break, but neither confirmed that they had officially split up. Ross slept with another woman that same night, and the news quickly spread, and Rachel found out. Heartbroken, Rachel split up with Ross and the two of them were sworn enemies - until the Series Three finale, in which the friends went up to stay at a beach house, along with Ross's new girlfriend Bonnie, who used to shave her head but now had a full head of hair. Rachel, clearly not over Ross, began to get jealous of Bonnie and encouraged her to shave her head again. She and Ross kissed one night, meaning that Ross had to chose between Rachel and the newly-bald Bonnie.
Ross chose Rachel, who had written up page after page of what she wanted in their relationship and what had already happened between them. Ross, of course, didn't read it and fell asleep. However, after having the fact that he cheated constantly rubbed in his face by Rachel, he finally lost it and said the ever immortal phrase that would go onto be one of the most frequently used quotes on the show - "WE WERE ON A BREAK!"
Ross and Rachel were not a couple again after that until the end of the show. Rachel instead fell for another man, Joshua, whom she met after being demoted at her job in Bloomingdales. She and Joshua did go out for a while, however when Ross announced that he was engaged to new girlfriend Emily, Rachel became jealous and suggested to Joshua that they get married too, which scared him away. Feeling that it would be too hard to watch her ex-boyfriend get married, Rachel decided not to attend the wedding and instead stayed in New York with Phoebe, who was pregnant with her brother's triplets and unable to fly. After the other friends left for London, Rachel announced to Phoebe that she was going too, in a desperate attempt to explain her feelings to Ross before it was too late. Phoebe tried to discourage her but Rachel was adamant that he would feel the same. However, on arrival she had a change of heart and watched the wedding, only to hear Ross say her name instead of Emily's at the altar, during a cliff-hanger season finale.
Ross and Emily were over before Series five had really begun. Rachel confessed to Ross that she was still in love with him but he didn't return her feelings. The two went on as friends after that. Rachel got a new job at Ralph Lauren. During a trip to Vegas, Ross and Rachel, stuck in their hotel room, got very drunk and accidently got married. Ross, not wanting to have three failed marriages, lied to Rachel and told her that they were no longer a married couple. However, it seemed that he still had romantic feelings for Rachel. However, Rachel soon discovered that Ross had failed to get an annulment and was furious. It was a definite blow to their relationship.
In Series 7, Rachel continued to live with Joey and was eventually chosen to be Monica's maid of honour. At the wedding, it was implied in a shock cliff-hanger that Rachel was pregnant, and not Monica, whom Phoebe had believed as the one who was with child. The baby turned out to be Ross's, as Rachel had had a one night stand with him.
In Series Eight, Rachel discovered that Joey had fallen in love with her after the two went on an unofficial date. He suggested that Rachel move in with Ross, so that he would be able to help when the baby arrived. When Joey finally revealed his feelings, Rachel politely rejected them and the two were awkward around each other for a while, before things finally settled back to normal.
Whilst in hospital giving birth to her baby, Rachel thought that Joey proposed to her, when in actual fact he was simply picking up Ross's ring from the ground. She said yes, even though she didn't really want to get married to Joey. Joey later told a shocked Rachel that he hadn't meant to propose and that the ring was Ross'.
Rachel and Ross continued to live together with the baby, whom Rachel named Emma, before Rachel moved out after living with Ross became too much. However, they continued to raise Emma together, even though they were not a couple.
In Series ten, Rachel announced that she had gotten a job offer, but the job was in Paris, much to Ross's shock. He did everything he could to get her to stay, until he saw how happy she was at the prospect of working in Paris and decided to let her go. However, in the Series finale and the very last episode of the show, Ross realized he loved her and went with Phoebe to the airport in an attempt to catch up with her. Rachel rejected him, then realized that she loved him too and returned to the apartment. The two embraced passionately, and were finally a real couple at last.
Since the end of the show, it has been implied in the show Joey that Rachel and Ross got married and settled down
Her birthday is May 5th.
Rachel is about five feet and four inches with a slight build. She is a dishwater blonde with blue eyes and attractive features. Through the series, her appearance changes a lot, especially her hairstyles. During the first two seasons she also sports a hairstyle that went on to become one of the most iconic looks of all time.

Her new actor is Matt le Blanc
