Rep. Patrick Meehan, R- Pa., acknowledged Tuesday that he told an aide of his that she was “a soul mate,” but denied that his actions were considered harassment.
The married Republican congressman, who said he intends to run for reelection, told The Philadelphia Inquirer that he “developed an affection” for his younger aide, but never pursued a romantic relationship with her.
However, Meehan, 62, admitted he reacted “selfishly” when he found out the longtime aide was in a serious relationship with another man. The congressman said that he lashed out at the aide in his office, which he attributed to a tense period around House votes on health care legislation.
“Sometimes I have the tendency to lash out to others on the staff … and you go hardest on the ones that you care the most about,” Meehan told the newspaper.
Meehan, according to The Inquirer, said he felt “invited” to express his feelings to the woman, and invited her out for ice cream. The two hugged, “maybe longer that night than needed to be,” Meehan said.
He handwrote the seven-year aide a letter that night, which The Inquirer published, wishing her well and thanking God “for putting you into my life and for all that we have seen and experienced and genuinely shared together.”
The woman texted Meehan the next day thanking him “for your very kind words and for your friendship,” according to text messages that Meehan’s camp shared with reporters.
“I did not seek a relationship,” Meehan said. “What I did was try to communicate that I was struggling with the idea that I might if I … wasn’t able to keep things in the proper perspective.”
The New York Times reported Saturday that the former aide filed a misconduct complaint last summer, and Meehan allegedly used thousands of dollars in taxpayer funds to settle the complaint.
House Speaker Paul Ryan called for an investigation by the House Ethics Committee, and told Meehan he should repay the public money. A spokesperson for Ryan added the four-term congressman would step down from the committee.
Meehan’s office has declined to answer questions regarding how much taxpayer money was used in the settlement, but, following the report, his office said, “Throughout his career [Meehan] has always treated his colleagues, male and female, with the utmost respect and professionalism.”
The accuser’s lawyer, Alexis Ronickher, has said the allegations are “well-grounded” and a “serious sexual harassment claim.” Ronickher also said Meehan demanded confidentiality to settle the complaint.
Meehan said he would repay the money — which he referred to as a “severance,” not a “settlement” — if the House Ethics Committee finds he harassed the former aide. He’s said he followed the advice of House lawyers and Ethics Committee guidance.
The revelation comes amid a national reckoning over sexual misconduct in the workplace. Four members of Congress either have resigned or said they won’t run again amid complaints from women about sexual misconduct.
The Associated Press contributed to this report.

PIXORA Photobooth, a leading digital agency in Zurich, was approached by their client, Nespresso, to increase user engagement at in-store and tradeshow promotions.
Results: 83% Conversion rate and 100% Opt-In rate
As with most of our agency clients, they built the promotion in BeeLiked with minimal assistance from our team. So far, they have run an in-store promotion and, most recently, an activation at a tradeshow where they achieved an 83% conversion rate.
The latest promotion was a combination of a physical and digital scratch-off experience. A QR code directed customers to a microsite where they could scratch to reveal a 4-digit code.
There was a simple data capture form with a marketing opt-in consent box
Participants then entered the code directly into the safe. If the safe opened, they won the coffee machine inside!

Old Grocery Store In Bossier To Get New Tenant
It's been two years since the neighborhood Kroger shut down on Benton Road in Bossier City to move into swanky new digs on Airline Drive. Brookshire's made a pitch to buy the property and was reportedly going to turn it into a Super One, but that fell through. So, since that time the building has been empty and a blot on the landscape.
That is soon to change. Now instead of buying stuff to stuff your face, you can go inside and buff your bod. KTBS-TV is reporting that Southerland Building Company has purchased the property with plans to turn it into a new Planet Fitness facility.
And some people aren't happy about it. One resident said that the area is home to a lot of older people who have no use for a gym, but need an easily accessible place to buy groceries.
Doesn't look like that's gonna happen. After putting in a new Planet Fitness, the remainder of the building will be used for some sort of variety store, whatever that means.
Planet Fitness members are sure going to be happy. There are 7,000 of them in Bossier City. The new facility is slated to open in January.

Last October I had the opportunity to travel to Australia for the first time. Here begins the chronicle of that epic 4 week trip!
My first stop was to be Brisbane, to visit a friend and hopefully have him show me a bit of what it’s like to go storm chasing in Australia.
When I arrived at the airport, I was so excited to run out and meet Dean that I jumped into the shortest customs line I could find, without paying close enough attention to realise it was an e-passport line and I would not be able to speak to a real customs officer.
Most people would probably be fine with this, as all you have to do is scan your passport and have a machine take your photo and confirm that you do appear to look like that old photo in your passport. However, I found myself on the other side of the camera going “that’s it? No fanfare on entering the Land Down Under?” As someone who has not traveled extensively enough between lots of countries yet, I treasure every passport stamp I can get. I should have just walked back over to a customs officer and asked him to stamp my passport, but I was in a bit of a daze so just walked into the lounge to look for my friend…but then it became a bit of a joke through the trip that I made it Australia for the first time without a stamp in my passport to prove it. 😛 (When I left the country I asked a customs officer if he could stamp it for me, but he sadly shook his head and said they don’t carry stamps upon exit. Sad times. At least I got my stamp when I returned to Sydney a month later, but that’s another story.)
It was evening when I arrived, so by the time I dropped my bags off at my friend’s place and we went back to the city for dinner, I was starving. My first delicious Aussie meal didn’t help the stomach pain, however, so my friend kept teasing me about how much more memorable it would be if I spent my first night in the country throwing up in the Brisbane River. Fortunately it didn’t get that far, and it was nothing a little walk along the river and a good night of sleep couldn’t cure.
Some of my friends know that when I travel to a new place, be it a new country or US state, I have to touch the ground as I bask in the excitement. It can’t be concrete or pavement, it has to be dirt or grass or something natural. Below is my photo not from my first evening of touching the ground outside the airport, but from my first full day. 🙂
On that first full day Dean took me on a little drive through some suburbs, to a couple beaches up the coast, to the Sunshine Coast, the Big Pineapple (a little amusement park that advertises the 6 days out of the week it is closed, rather than focusing on the one day it is open), and to a lookout toward the Glass House Mountains (first photo on this post).
I spent the next couple days exploring much of central Brisbane and going to Lone Pine Sanctuary (koalas!) while my friend had to work. More on those adventures coming soon, once I get through more photos.

Author(s): Alison Weir
It is the year 1152, and a beautiful woman rides through France, fleeing her crown, her two young daughters and a shattered marriage. Her husband, Louis of France has been more monk than monarch, and certainly not a lover. Now Eleanor of Aquitaine has one sole purpose: to return to her duchy and marry the man she loves, Henry Plantagenet, destined for greatness as King of England. It will be a union founded on lust, renowned as one of the most vicious marriages in history, and it will go on to forge a great empire and a devilish brood. This is a story of the making of nations, and of passionate conflicts: between Henry II and Thomas Becket; between Eleanor and Henry's formidable mother Matilda; between father and sons, as Henry's children take up arms against him - and finally between Henry and Eleanor herself.
A top ten bestselling novelist and historian recreates in fiction the most extraordinary and tempestuous marriage in history
"Should be savored . . . Weir wastes no time captivating her audience." Seattle Post-Intelligencer
"Stunning . . . As always, Weir renders the bona fide plot twists of her heroine's life with all the mastery of a thriller author, marrying historical fact with licentious fiction." The Star Tribune
"Engaging and dramatic . . . [Weir] laudably sticks to the historic facts while simultaneously using her imaginative gifts." The Star-Ledger
"The history itself is inherently dramatic, augmented here by Weir's usual lush detail, which stimulates." Booklist
Alison Weir lives and works in Surrey. Her books include Britain's Royal Families, The Six Wives of Henry VIII, Children of England, Eleanor of Aquitaine, Henry VIII: King and Court, Mary, Queen of Scots, Isabella: She-Wolf of France, Queen of England, Katherine Swynford: The Story of John of Gaunt and His Scandalous Duchess and the novels, Innocent Traitor and The Lady Elizabeth.

A labeling machine is a machine that labels a package or product. The trademarks, main parameters, instructions for use and product introduction on the label are indispensable for modern packaging, and the beautifully designed labels also help to enhance the company's image and promote product sales. Today's labeling machine is an important part of the packaging production line, which directly affects the quality of packaging. Therefore, efforts should be made to improve the quality of labeling. From the aspects of design, manufacturing, assembly and commissioning, according to the labeling requirements, the cost is lower. Meet the functional requirements of the labeling machine. Labeling machines, which are playing an increasingly important role in the packaging industry, occupy a very important position, and as a result, the understanding of such equipment is also deepening. Nowadays, the types of labeling machines are still enriched, but the labeling methods of automatic labeling machines mainly include three methods: the rubbing method, the blowing method and the suction method. The law also has its own advantages and disadvantages.
The working principle of the rubbing method: When the leading edge part of the labeling machine label is pasted onto the product, the product immediately takes the label away. The advantage of this method is that the labeling speed is fast, and the labeling accuracy depends on the speed of the labeling machine and the speed of the label distribution. If the speeds of the two are the same, the labeling accuracy is high, otherwise the labeling machine accuracy will be affected. .
The working principle of the suction method: when the labeling machine label paper leaves the conveyor belt, it is sucked onto the vacuum pad, and the vacuum pad is connected to the end of a mechanical device. When the mechanism is extended until the label comes into contact with the product, it shrinks back and the label is attached to the product. The advantage of this method is high precision, and it is suitable for the labeling process of difficult packaging products; the disadvantage is that the labeling speed is slow and the labeling quality is not good.
The working principle of the blowing method: improvement on the basis of the suction method, the difference is that the surface of the vacuum pad remains stationary, the label is fixed and positioned on a “vacuum grid”, and the “vacuum grid” is a plane filled with Hundreds of small holes. The apertures are used to maintain the formation of an "air jet." A stream of compressed air is blown from these "air jets", which is very strong, moving the label on the vacuum grid and allowing it to attach to the product. The advantage of this method is that it is highly accurate and reliable; the disadvantage is that the process is complicated.
The comparison of the three labeling methods found that the rubbing method can greatly improve the working speed of the labeling machine, and conforms to the development trend of pursuing high efficiency. Jidong Automation has been solving the problem of low labeling accuracy of this method, effectively combining the new technology of intelligent control to produce a fully automatic labeling machine with high precision and speed.

A lot of Apple watchers are reportedly anticipating Apple’s unveiling of new iPhone models come September 12. In addition, industry watchers are reportedly anticipating that the company would announce the release date for the next version of the iOS operating system at the event. Bloomberg noted that there could be an expansion of the iPhone X design as well as naming all through Apple’s phone lineup with additional sizes, price points, and colors. It is also projected that Air Pods and Apple Watch could get upgraded.
Apple reportedly has a definite pattern it follows for the annual announcement of new smartphone and unveiling of major upgrades annually. In 2017, it reportedly boycotted the minor update announcements and instead of launching an iPhone 7s, Apple launched an iPhone 8 as well as an iPhone X. It is worthy to mention that iPhone X signifies the number ten rather than the letter X. Watchers have, however, noted the uncertainty in the naming pattern that the company will subsequently adopt.
The particular time for the company’s fall announcement has remained predictable over the years. Reports indicate that in the last six years, Apple has held a press conference in the early days of September to officially launch a new iPhone.
The iPhone maker is prepared to reveal the company’s latest product lineups on September 12th. The unveiling is reportedly set to take place at Steve Job Theater as indicated in the invitation and is scheduled to commence at 10 a.m.
Normally, this event held every year in September serves to introduce new models of iPhones as well as other upgraded gadgets. Rumors, however, have it that the unveiling for this year will be more impressive, even by the company’s standard itself.
Media outlets, as well as industry analysts, are reportedly looking forward to upgrades in virtually all the company’s product lineup. Specifically, reports have hinted that there will be new iPhones, new MacBook Air, a new Apple watch. The iPad will also not be left out of the upgrades.
New and Upgraded Products
Market watchers expect that Apple will announce the launching of three new models of the iPhone X. The products will include:
iPhone XS- This will expectedly be a straight successor of the iPhone X and it is estimated that it will cost £899 upon release. iPhone XS is projected to have a 5.8-inch OLED screen display similar to that of the iPhone X. In addition, it will have the new A12 bionic processor as well as Apple’s updated iOS 12 mobile operating system.
iPhone XS (plus) – This will expectedly rank as the biggest iPhone and is estimated to cost £999. iPhone XS (plus) will have a 6.5-inch OLED screen display and its body will be a size similar to iPhone 8 Plus, even though 8 Plus has only a 5.5-inch screen display. Watchers have projected that Apple will likely discard the “plus” and that implies that both phones will likely be known as “iPhone XS.”
iPhone – The third iPhone to be unveiled will be a cheaper version that is projected to cost £599. This model will have a 6.1-inch screen with an LCD display. It will also reportedly come in about seven colors, but experts have no idea what it will be called. Bloomberg reported that rather than the steel casing, the aluminum casing will be used to keep the costs lower.
Just like the iPhone X, all these soon-to-be-released models will have no home button. Rather, they will come with gesture controls as well as a facial recognition system to be used for unlocking the phone.
In addition to the iPhones, Apple is expected to also update the iPad Pro model such that they have features and screens similar to the iPhone X. That will be with the inclusion of features like gesture controls and FaceID. It could also likely launch an upgraded Apple Watch 4. Rumors also suggest that this new Apple Watch 4 could come with a screen that is larger by 15%, a bigger battery, EKG tech and probably a sleep tracking application.
Bloomberg also reported that the company will launch new versions of its 11.9-inch and 12.9-inch iPad Pros. However, Apple has not made any definite comment.

The patient was a 29-year-old G1P0 pregnant woman hospitalized at 23 weeks' gestation after routine ultrasonography because of fetal ascites and minor ventriculomegaly. Her medical history was unremarkable. The woman and her husband were farmers. Written informed consent was obtained from the patient for participation in this study.
Ultrasonography of the fetus showed symmetric ventriculomegaly and hyperechogenicity of the cerebral parenchyma (Figure). It also detected ascites, a minor pericardial effusion, and cardiomegaly with a hyperechogenic myocardium. The medium cerebral artery peak systolic velocity was 1.98 multiples of median, which indicated fetal anemia. Subsequent ultrasonography showed a rapid increase in ventriculomegaly, cortical atrophy, growth of ascites, and episodes of bradyarrhythmia.
Ultrasonography of congenital microencephaly caused by infection with lymphocytic choriomeningitis virus diagnosed in the fetus of a 29-year-old pregnant women at 23 weeks' gestation. A) Fetal brain at 23 weeks' gestation showing symetric ventriculomegaly (14 mm). Yellow symbols indicate axis at which size of cerebral ventricle was measured. B) Fetal brain at 26 weeks' gestation showing symetric ventriculomegaly (20 mm) and thinning of the cortical mantle. Yellow symbols indicate axis at which size of cerebral ventricle was measured. C) Fetal heart at 24 weeks' gestation showing pericardial effusion (*) and cardiomyopathy with hyperechogenic muscle. D) Sagittal section of fetal abdomen at 26 weeks' gestation showing ascites (*).
An initial diagnosis of congenital infection with parvovirus B19 was rejected because maternal serologic results were negative for this virus. Serologic test results were also negative for cytomegalovirus, rubella virus, Toxoplasma gondii, and Treponema pallidum. The patient had been vaccinated against varicella virus.
We performed amniocentesis at 24 weeks' gestation: results showed a standard karyotype (46, XX). Results of PCR screening of amniotic fluid were negative for TORCH agents (toxoplasmosis/Toxoplasma gondii, other infections, rubella virus, cytomegalovirus, herpes simplex virus-2 or neonatal herpes simplex virus), as well as enterovirus, Listeria monocytogenes, Mycoplasma spp., and Ureaplasma spp. The biochemical profile of ascites indicated an infection. A fetal blood sample showed moderate anemia. Because of these negative results for virus infections, an ascitic fluid sample was tested by PCR for LCMV.
We extracted virus RNA from an ascite sample by using a Z1-XL Biorobot and a Virus Mini Kit (QIAGEN, Hilden, Germany). A 253-nt region in the small RNA segment was amplified by using sense primer CML-F0 (5′-ARCAARGGIATYTGTAGYTGTGG-3′) and reverse primer CML-R3 (5′-CTYATGGAYTGCATCATYTTTGA-3′) in a QuantiTect SYBR Green Real-Time PCR Device (QIAGEN), a CFX96 thermal cycler (Bio-Rad Laboratories, Hercules, CA, USA), and the cycling protocol reported for flaviviruses.
To better characterize this strain, a 686-bp product was amplified by using primers for the virus polymerase gene and directly sequenced. We used this sequence for alignment with homologous virus sequences in GenBank and performed phylogenetic analysis by using the maximum-likelihood method based on the Kimura 2-parameter model implemented in MEGA 6.06 software.
We tested 5 samples for virus small gene segment by using a specific Sybr Green Real Time PCR. Amniotic fluid was positive for LCMV. Fetal brain and placenta biopsy specimens and a serum sample from the mother were negative for LCMV. The matching sequence was compared with 42 other LCMV sequences by using BLAST (https://blast.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/Blast.cgi). Genetic identities ranged from 77.2% to 90.8% at the nucleotide level.
For confirmation and better genetic characterization, we tested samples by using a reverse transcription PCR specific for virus large gene segment. Again, only amniotic fluid was positive. The 686-nt sequence matched 31 other sequences in GenBank (identity range 78.2%–88%). All specimens were inoculated onto Vero cells, but virus was not isolated.
The patient reported an influenza-like illness during the 16th week of pregnancy, which had resolved spontaneously in a few days. She also reported that there were mice on the farm.
On the basis of echographic findings, the couple decided to terminate the pregnancy at 28 weeks' gestation. A fetal blood sample showed increased anemia and thrombocythemia.
Fetopathologic examination showed hepatosplenomegaly, thymic hypertrophy, ascites, and pericardial and pleural effusion. Examination of the brain showed severe microcephaly with polymicrogyria, a thin cortex, and diffuse periventricular calcifications. We also detected bilateral chorioretinitis. The placenta was unremarkable, and results of genetic analysis were within reference ranges.

While considering enlisting in the U.S. military in Virginia, you are likely aware that you will make many personal sacrifices and place yourself at risk on more than one occasion in your effort to uphold the Constitution and protect and defend the citizens of the United States. The profession is one to which most citizens give honor and gratitude for its members' services. If DUI winds up on your criminal record, it may greatly impede your eligibility status to join the military.
You'd unlikely be the first person to try to join the military following legal trouble. In some situations, such as a DUI arrest, both your civilian life and your potential military career may be negatively affected. Where DUI charges are concerned, it may matter whether charges were misdemeanors or felonies and whether you entered a guilty plea in court.
Reasons DUI may keep you out of the military
Whether the court hands down a conviction or you walk away from DUI charges without ever going to trial, the fact that there was an arrest and charges against you can impact your life in many ways. The following information may be helpful if you are currently facing problems related to DUI as a potential military service member:
- The state may suspend or revoke your driver's license if the court convicts you of DUI. Not being able to operate a motor vehicle would severely impede your eligibility to join the U.S. military.
- Your individual recruiting officer could elect to try to help you overcome any obstacles you may be facing due to DUI in civilian life.
- If you completed a substance abuse treatment program or fulfilled other penalties associated with DUI, the military may decide to allow your application for enlistment.
- If your DUI occurs after your enlistment, your commanding officer may issue punishments on base, even if it was a civilian police officer at an off-base location who arrested you.
It is often possible to avoid conviction if you fight DUI charges in court. Facing such charges does not necessarily mean you will face a trial for the alleged crime. Much depends on the type of defense you present. You no doubt hope to preserve your freedom as well as your good standing in your community and potential military career; therefore, it may be best to reach out for support from someone well-versed in both types of law.
Many people in Virginia ask experienced defense attorneys to act on their behalves when attempting to overcome DUI charges and get their lives and careers back on track.

Guadeloupe is an insular region of France which consists of six islands on the east of the Caribbean sea in West Indies. It shares its maritime borders with Montserrat, the Dominican Republic and Antigua and Barbuda. The administrative center is the city of Basse-Terre.
The climate in Guadeloupe is tropical with trade winds. The wet season lasts from July to November and we do not recommend coming to the country during this time because of frequent tropical cyclones.
French is the official language in the country but people can also speak English and Creole. The majority of the population are the Catholics.
The tourists come to Guadeloupe to spend time on the white sand beaches of the Grande-Terre Island which is famous for its first-class hotels and well-developed infrastructure. Shopping and entertainments are available in Pointe-a-Pitre and in the capital city. In the port city Saint Francois, yacht sailing tours are arranged for the tourists.
The second largest island Basse-Terre is the main destination for divers as there is one of the best places in the world for diving, namely Jacques Cousteau’s Underwater Reserve. The national park on the island attracts the lovers of ecological tourism and all those who love nature. The southern coast of Marie-Galante Island is also a very good place for diving and snorkeling. This resort is for people who prefer to stay away from the noise.
One can get acquainted with the everyday life of the locals in the Beausejour village which is in the Desirade Island. On this island, the tourists can escape from everyone on secluded beaches.
If you look for privacy, choose a small island Terre-de-Bas and if you want to have a really good food, go to the restaurants on the Terre-de-Haut Island.
There are no direct flights between Guadeloupe and CIS countries. The travelers will have to take a transit flight with one or two stops. Aeroflot and Cubana offer the most convenient flight from Moscow with a stop in Havana. Air France and UIA offer flights from Kiev to Pointe-a-Pitre with a stop in Nice and in Paris. Lufthansa, British Airways, and Air France fly from Belarus.
There are direct flights only from France with Corsair, Air Caraibes and Air France. The citizens of other European countries have to take transit flights.
One can get to Guadeloupe by sea from Dominica, the Martinique Island and Saint Lucia by a speed boat.
The citizens of the European Union can stay in Guadeloupe for 90 days visa-free.
The tourists from CIS countries must obtain a visa in French Embassies or visa centers. A person must submit all the documents for a visa personally. The minimal period for processing the documents is 10 working days. A visa is valid from 1 to 90 days depending on its type.
Those tourists from CIS countries who have a French Schengen visa which is valid for at least 90 days can travel to Guadeloupe without obtaining any additional permit.
In Guadeloupe, there are no restrictions concerning import and export of national and foreign currency. The sums exceeding 7.000 Euros must be declared. The reverse exchange of the currency must not exceed 500 Euros.
The tourists can bring in Guadeloupe duty-free the following goods:
- a small amount of cigarettes and alcohol;
- personal belongings, perfume, clothes;
- a certain amount of foods with expiration dates;
- a certain amount of coffee and tea.
It is prohibited to bring in Guadeloupe:
- medications without a doctor’s prescription or notary certification;
- pets without a vet certificate in French issued not earlier than 5 days before crossing the border.
It’s not allowed to export:
- items having a historical and cultural value;
- rare species of flora and fauna.
Despite the fact that the cuisine of Guadeloupe was under a great influence of French cooking traditions, it still preserved its authenticity and unique ways of cooking. The staple food is vegetables, rice, potatoes, fruits and seafood.
Meat is not very popular in Guadeloupe but the tourists can try local black pudding (blood sausage) Budin, roasted pigeon and stewed rabbit.
Seafood is used in very many local dishes and as is known seafood is rich in useful microelements. Thus is good news for those who try to stick to a healthy diet. The tourists can try a fish casserole La Creole, a dish with boiled octopus meat Chatrou, stewed crab Matutu de crabes and delicacies from crawfish, lobsters, sea-urchin, turtles and clams.
Treat yourself to Callaloo soup with bacon, spinach and the greens, Blaff soup with seafood and Bebele soup with giblets.
The main dishes are usually served with casava, pineapples, ocra and feijoa.
The most popular desserts are fruits and fruit jams and a cake Tourment d’Amour.
If you need to cool down and quench your thirst, try the drinks from guava, sugar cane, tangerine and paw paw. The meal is usually followed by coffee and tea. In Guadeloupe, you have a chance to try French wines, locally produced rum and punch.
As on the entire territory of the European Union, the national currency in Guadeloupe is Euro which is equal to 100 cents. The bank notes from 5 to 500 Euros and coins from 50 to 1 cent are in circulation.
On the resorts, US dollars are accepted almost everywhere.
The tourists can exchange currency at banks, in exchange offices and in hotels. The banks offer the best exchange rate. We strongly recommend you against dealing with the locals to exchange currency.
Cashless payment is available only in some restaurants, stores and hotels. Learn about it beforehand.
The traveler’s checks are not widely accepted. It is preferable to have checks in US dollars or in Euro. Some shops give a 20% discount if you pay with traveler’s check.
The tourists can refund VAT at the Customs checkpoint if the total sum of the purchase is 185 Euros and over; and you need to have a sales receipt. Vat is not charged in the shops on the Saint-Barthélemy Island.
There is a great risk of robbery in Guadeloupe, so don’t leave your belongings unattended.

Sightseeing in Guadeloupe
In Guadeloupe, there is a place which is under UNESCO protection. This is the Guadeloupe National Park on the Basse-Terre Island. This biosphere reserve attracts all the lovers of wild nature. The territory of the park covers both land and water areas which are critically important for preserving the natural landscape and for saving rare animals. Among the most popular sights in this reserve are the Carbet Falls, Soufrière volcano and De Mamelles Park. The Grand Cul de Sac Marin Nature Reserve in the northern part of the Sale river also makes up the territory of the National Park.

SAN ROMAN, the solo music project of multi-disciplinary artist Alexa San Román, has released her debut album, MESSY today. Taking inspiration from events in her life, citing loss and the pain of watching time pass, MESSY is a diary entry put on play as well as a culmination of years of musical experience and a fresh start for Alexa. Listen to the album now below.
MESSY also arrives alongside the music video for “Julia.” Directed by Alexa herself, the video finds her walking around city streets on a gloomy, rainy day perfectly matching the melancholy feeling of the track.
Born in Los Angeles & raised in New York, Alexa began her music career in 2005 when she received her first guitar as a Christmas gift. Growing up on Long Island, NY her first steps into music were through the hardcore scene, earning her first role of guitarist at 16 in the local favorite Love, Robot. Soon after the band realized her vocal chops were being overlooked she was promoted to frontwoman and the band would go on to enjoy 10 more years of success with her at the helm, eventually breaking into the coveted Warped Tour scene and gaining fans around the world. It was during this time she started honing in on her visual talents, filming music videos for her own band and eventually breaking out to do others. To this day alongside her musical endeavors she is in high demand as a director and has shot for Journeys, D’Addario, Hopeless Records, Fearless Records and countless independent artists.
After laying the foundation for her future in music and growing up alongside Love, Robot the group disbanded and thus was the birth of her second project, the alt-rock duo group Heirsound. Here she would continue with her signature brand of music- strong yet melodic guitar leads and thoughtful emotional lyricism and find success and a fanbase that to this day is still consuming their music. Following three successful EPs the duo posted a public farewell statement and went their separate ways.
After her five year hiatus from music since Heirsound’s disbandment, Alexa San Román is back with a fervor, adapting her last name as her newest project’s name and moving forward with only one bandmate- herself. San Román’s newest venture is the arrival of an artist that is finally ready to stand alone.

Longtime journalist, conservative commentator McCarville has died
One of Oklahoma's longest-serving political commentators, known for his tempered style and widely read The McCarville Report, a political news and conservative commentary site, has died.
Mike McCarville was 76. According to a post on the website, he died Wednesday after struggling with an illness.
McCarville labeled his commentary The Gadfly, a warning of his sharp, persistent criticism of those in government and politics. Even then, he wasn't belligerent.
"It was no secret that Mike was a proud Republican who would always keep an open ear for opposing points of view," wrote Jason Doyle, contributing editor for The McCarville Report. "He didn't need to devolve a conversation into the partisan screaming matches so familiar on today's cable and radio talk shows."
Over his long career in journalism and political commentary, McCarville contributed to The Oklahoman, The Oklahoma Journal, The Oklahoma City Times, The Tulsa Tribune, The Norman Transcript and The Oklahoma Courier, according to his website. In the 1970s, he was assistant news editor at KWTV-9 and also appeared on KOSU-FM 91.7, KGWA-AM 960, KTOK-AM 1000 and the NRA News show.
McCarville was a consultant for Bill Price in his unsuccessful 1990 campaign for governor.
He was inducted into the Oklahoma Journalism Hall of Fame in 2013.
The McCarville Report will continue to cover politics. In the meantime, Doyle said he will remain as contributing editor.
Doyle said McCarville's temperament made him stand out among political commentators.
“It was just amazing to listen to him spin tales and just be able to really nail down conservative points without sounding like a talking point,” Doyle said by phone Wednesday. “He was just so confident in his views that he knew he could fairly and calmly debate issues.”
McCarville, Doyle said, didn't have to go off the edge.
“He had conversations; he didn't have confrontations,” said Doyle.
McCarville lauched his weekly political newsletter in 1980 and later transitioned his coverage into an online only publication.
“Because he's always been involved in broadcast media and broadcast media always changes, I think he was ready for those changes and was able to make it,” said Doyle, who first worked for McCarville at KTOK more than a decade ago.
McCarville is survived by his wife, Ann, his children, grandchildren and great-grandchildren.
Tributes poured in from politicians, journalists and admirers Wednesday.
“He was a personal friend who I will remember as being fair, but tough in pursuing stories and tips,” Gov. Mary Fallin wrote of McCarville. “He worked for several news outlets throughout his career, but I remember him most during his time on the radio, in which he liked to describe himself as the ‘man with a face for radio.' ”
U.S. Sen. James Lankford, R-Oklahoma City, said, "Mike was an investigator, communicator, and he had a passion for people and politics. He loved his state and its people, and he will be missed by me and my family. My prayers are with his loved ones and many friends."
State Corrections Department Director Joe Allbaugh also sent his regards.
“Mike McCarville was a great family man and close personal friend who was an inspiration to me and many others," Allbaugh wrote in a statement. "I had the honor of first meeting him when we worked on a campaign together in the '80s. We remained friends until today when I heard about his unfortunate passing."

NY Dem hits Cuomo for giving cover to understaffed nursing homes that 'cried' about staff sick with COVID
Danielle Lieblein, a New York nursing home nutrition director, says Gov. Andrew Cuomo 'needs to get his facts together and present us with some real data at this point because none of it is making any sense.'
New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo continues to face criticism from fellow Democrats over the scandal involving coronavirus deaths at nursing homes.
Cuomo and his administration are taking heat over their lack of transparency regarding the number of nursing home casualties following his order for facilities to take in residents who had been infected. On Tuesday, however, New York state Assemblyman Ron Kim brought up an action Cuomo took right before he gave that directive.
"What gets lost about 3/25/20 Executive Order to send 9,000 COVID patients to nursing homes is that (according to the AG's report) NHs cried to the governor that half of their staff were sick/home of COVID!" Kim tweeted. "And that’s when Gov Cuomo handed out his blanket legal immunity to them."
Kim referenced the report released by New York Attorney General Letitia James in January that revealed how the Cuomo administration had underreported coronavirus deaths at nursing homes. The report referenced problems posed by insufficient staffing at a significant number of nursing homes in the state.
The report noted that there were "[p]re-existing insufficient staffing levels in many nursing homes" that "put residents at increased risk of harm during the COVID-19 pandemic," and that facilities with low staffing ratings had higher fatality rates.
It also said that some facilities that already had low staffing ratings were further hampered by staff members having to stay home due to COVID-19 infections or quarantines.
What Kim said "gets lost" in discussions of the nursing home problem is that in the middle of this crisis, two days before his directive forbidding nursing homes from turning away residents with COVID-19, he issued another order protecting understaffed nursing homes and professionals from criminal or civil liability.
That order provides broad immunity for acts or omissions while providing health care if the treatment of the patient was affected by "decisions or activities in response to or as a result of the COVID-19 outbreak and in support of the state's directives."
While the order does not apply to cases of "willful or intentional criminal misconduct, gross negligence, reckless misconduct or intentional infliction of harm," it specifically says that "acts, omissions or decisions resulting from a resource or staffing shortage" cannot fall under those categories.
Kim is just one New York Democrat who has vocalized his opposition to Cuomo's handling of the pandemic. Several lashed out at the governor after a Monday press conference in which he made a disputed claim about his administration’s handling of requests for data on COVID-19-related deaths at nursing homes.
Cuomo told reporters that the Department of Justice and state legislature submitted requests for data at the same time last summer. He said his team opted to prioritize the federal inquiry and informed state lawmakers their request for data would be "paused" in the meantime.
"Trash. No one believes you," state Sen. Jessica Ramos tweeted in response.
"At no point did the Administration notify the legislature about a DOJ investigation," she said in another tweet. "People died and Cuomo lied then he had the gall to write a book."
New York state Sens. Alessandra Biaggi and Gustavo Rivera, both Democrats, also took aim at Cuomo’s remarks. Both lawmakers said they first learned of the DOJ’s probe into New York nursing home deaths in local newspapers, not from the governor’s office.

The Greek shipping myth: an industry talks up its impact
On the day he took office as Greece's shipping minister in June 2012, Kostis Moussouroulis received a visit from a 90-year-old ship-owner.
He still remembers the older man's words: "Don't forget, the best minister of shipping and maritime affairs is the minister who is doing nothing for the shipping industry. He is the one who is leaving us alone."
That's the way Greek ship-owners like it. The magnates who run one of the biggest merchant marine fleets in the world have long argued that if Greece tried to tax them, they would leave - and that their departure would devastate the economy. In recent years, as international institutions repeatedly bailed out Greece, the lenders have also pushed Athens to beef up its tax take.
Ship-owners have resisted any effort to ditch the tax breaks they enjoy, and no government has dared touch them.
"Shipping is a pillar of the Greek economy," says the Union of Greek Ship-owners, the ocean-going industry's main association.
Greece's statistics office says shipping contributes around $9bn - or 4pc - of Gross Domestic Product (GDP). When you include related business, the industry says, the figure jumps to 7.5pc of GDP, or about $17bn a year. Deep-sea shipping and related trades employ more than 192,000 people, it says. That's 4pc of all Greek workers.
But an analysis of corporate filings and economic data by Reuters suggests shipping's heroic role in Greece's economy is largely a myth.
That's because Greek ship-owners include in their statistics billions of dollars which never enter the economy.
If Greece counted only payments to Greek companies and individuals - as other countries do - the deep-sea shipping industry's contribution would be equivalent to around 1pc of GDP.
For Greece, the cost of the tax breaks granted to shipowners runs into hundreds of millions of euro. Though that is small compared with the country's debt, plenty of other citizens have had to tighten their belts.
The ship-owners "are powerful in that they… get the media to write what they want," said economist and former finance minister George Papaconstantinou.
"Immediately when you start touching them you start to hear: 'We are 7pc of the economy we bring 17bn every year, 200,000 jobs'… That's not the case."
The Union of Greek Shipowners declined to comment on the Reuters analysis, but said any suggestion it used political or media influence to perpetuate inaccuracies about its economic contribution was "a completely false allegation".
The industry says government tax revenues from Greek shipping have increased more than eight-fold since the outbreak of the economic crisis.
But today, instead of Greek-based ships manned by Greek sailors, shipping is mainly made up of small management offices in Athens' port of Piraeus that collect freight fees on behalf of their tax-haven registered parents.
It's not clear how many jobs the industry generates. Shipowners, too, often live abroad.
Papaconstantinou, the former finance minister who said he doubted the importance of shipping, is one politician who wants change. He said the government should commission an independent report to estimate the real contribution of the sector. But he said the industry would resist.
"It's not by accident that you do not have an authoritative independent study of this," he said. (Reuters)
