26 February 2023
The Roche Rescript Comes With All the Zeal of Saul the Pharisee
Since the Mystical Body of Christis made up of the Faithful, Christ might well ask, 'Arthur, Arthurwhy persecutest thou me?'
Still breathing threats against the Church’s ancient liturgy with a zeal reminiscent of Saul the Pharisee in Acts 9:1, Cardinal Arthur Roche has now begun strong-arming bishops to “ensure the correct application” of Pope Francis’s 2021 apostolic letter restricting the Traditional Latin Mass (TLM), Traditionis Custodes.
The latest crackdown by the prefect of the Dicastery for Divine Worship and the Discipline of the Sacraments has come in a rescript that severely restricts the freedom of bishops in matters of the TLM and their autonomy as “directors, promoters, and guardians of the entire liturgical life” in their dioceses (Canon 835 §1).
The 21 February rescript, signed by Cardinal Roche, and approved by Pope Francis during a private audience one day prior, states that the Pope has confirmed that diocesan bishops must obtain permission from the Dicastery for Divine Worship to use a parish church in their diocese for the TLM, erect a personal parish for the celebration of the usus antiquor, or allow a newly-ordained priest to offer Mass using the 1962 Roman Missal.
Pope Francis has also decided that bishops who up to now have exercised their dispensing authority (given to them in Canon 87 §1) must inform the Dicastery for Divine Worship which will decide either to affirm or overrule those decisions.
The rescript became an urgent necessity for Cardinal Roche amid growing opposition to his crackdown on the traditional liturgy, continuing resistance from bishops to his desired implementation of Traditionis Custodes, and mounting criticism from canonists that he had been exceeding his remit and venturing into canonical lawlessness.
Letters and Lawlessness?
Since December, Cardinal Roche has been sending letters to US bishops who had cited Canon 87 §1 of the Code of Canon Law as their reason for not asking permission from Rome to allow the Traditional Latin Mass in parish churches. That canon stipulates that a bishop may dispense the faithful from “universal and particular disciplinary laws” (eg certain provisions of Traditionis Custodes) when he judges it to be for their spiritual good.
In one of these letters, sent to a bishop in California, Cardinal Roche insisted that his dicastery alone had the power to dispense from the provisions of Traditionis Custodes to allow a parish church to be used for the TLM. The same holds true, he said, for granting permission to a newly-ordained priest to offer the Mass using the 1962 Missal.
Cardinal Roche also stipulated in this letter that, should the bishop petition the dicastery for a dispensation to allow the TLM in a parish church, he must submit a report detailing “the number of participants at these Masses” and recounting “the steps being taken to lead the faithful who are attached to the antecedent liturgy” to the Novus Ordo.
The letters reiterated several of the disciplinary instructions Cardinal Roche had issued a year prior in his Responsa ad dubia (on applying Traditionis Custodes) but which many bishops had not implemented and which a number of canon lawyers have described as an overreach.
In an interview following the release of the Responsa, New York canonist Father Gerald Murray argued that the document went beyond what was canonically possible on certain points and that bishops were free to dispense with its disciplinary provisions for the spiritual welfare of their flock.
Cardinal Roche’s more recent letters were therefore a further attempt to tighten the screws, but canonists continued to maintain that bishops did not need to petition Rome for a dispensation to allow the TLM to be celebrated in parish churches.
In comments to the Catholic Herald before the rescript was issued, Fr Murray noted that Cardinal Roche “seems to presume that the diocesan bishop lacks the power to dispense from this rule, which power is granted to him by Canon 87 §1, because he seems to presume that such dispensation has been reserved to the Holy See.”
“The problem with this claim,” Fr Murray said, “is that nowhere does Traditionis Custodes state that dispensation from the prohibition of allowing the use of a parish church is reserved to the Holy See.”
He continued: “The provisions of Canon 87 §1 that permit the diocesan bishop, for reasons of ‘spiritual welfare,’ to dispense from disciplinary ‘universal laws and those particular laws made by the supreme ecclesiastical authority for his territory or his subjects’ remain in place unless the Pope specifically reserves such dispensation to himself or to some other authority. No such reservation is stated in Traditionis Custodes nor in the Responsa.”
Fr Murray also explained that “for a newly-ordained priest to obtain authorization from his bishop to celebrate the Traditional Latin Mass, the promulgated Italian text of Traditionis Custodes states that the bishop is simply required to ‘consult’ with the Holy See. The later official Latin translation of Traditionis Custodes [whose existence was unknown until Cardinal Roche issued the Responsa] changed the wording to say that the bishop must ‘ask for permission’ from the Holy See to give such an authorization.”
“This substantive change in law carried out through an unannounced changing of the original wording when producing a translation is most irregular,” the canonist observed.
Noting that the English, Italian and Spanish versions of Traditionis Custodes on the Holy See website still do not include the change found in the Latin version, Fr Murray said “this confusion and inconsistency can give rise to a doubt that this changed provision enjoys legal force. An Apostolic Letter is not subject to re-writing by a translator unless the change is specifically authorized and promulgated by the Pope. There is no evidence that this occurred in the case of the Latin translation.” Other canonists have made similar arguments.
To overcome his opposition and forge ahead in laying waste to the Church’s ancient rites, Cardinal Roche needed to convince Pope Francis to put into legislation what he had been trying to enforce without proper canonical backing: hence the rescript.
In comments to the Catholic Herald on the day the rescript was issued, Fr Murray insisted it was “evidence that Cardinal Roche understood that reasonable doubts existed about his claim that bishops could not dispense various provisions of Traditionis Custodes using Canon 87 §1.”
He observed: “The rescript states that Pope Francis ‘has confirmed’ three things ‘about the implementation of his motuproprioTraditionis Custodes’ which were not stated in Traditionis Custodes; namely, that only the Holy See can grant permission to newly ordained priests to celebrate the Traditional Latin Mass, that diocesan bishops cannot dispense from the prohibition of a parish church being used for the celebration of the Traditional Latin Mass, and that they cannot dispense from the prohibition of the erection of personal parishes for such celebrations.”
Fr Murray noted that this new legislation “further withdraws from diocesan bishops their ordinary power to decide the most pastorally beneficial approach to take in these matters.” And he called it “regrettable” as “both a diminution of the pastoral authority of bishops and as an unmistakable sign that the Holy Father has decided that Catholics attached to the ancient liturgical heritage of the Church do not deserve the same place in the Church as the other faithful.”
“Banishment from parishes and restrictions on young priests who would like to be of pastoral service are harsh and repressive measures which are undeserved and manifestly contrary to the Pope’s call for going out to the peripheries,” he said. Meanwhile, a source close to the Dicastery for Divine Worship has confirmed to the Catholic Herald that no permissions have or will be granted to priests ordained since Traditionis Custodes.
Appearing on The World Over on Thursday, 23 February, Fr Murray summed up the situation, saying: “It’s a persecution of Latin Mass Catholics, plain and simple. And it can’t be justified by saying this is going to help promote the mission of the Church. This is damaging the Church.”
One question that arises is how the dicastery will enforce the rescript given its severely limited resources? Will Cardinal Roche himself “enter house after house” to banish traditional Catholics from their spiritual home?
Reports have it that the prefect has sought an Apostolic Constitution with still more sweeping measures against the traditional Roman Rite. Whether this recent act is a more limited response to this alleged request, or a foretaste of more to come, only time will tell.
But another and perhaps more pressing question is why Cardinal Roche needs to exert such pressure on diocesan bishops, when the majority were – supposedly – unhappy with the application of Benedict XVI’s Summorum Pontificum.
Pope Francis said in Traditionis Custodes that “the wishes expressed by the episcopate” in a consultation of bishops, carried out in 2020 by the Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith, called for a crackdown on the traditional Latin liturgy. And in his accompanying letter to the motu proprio, he said that he was “responding to [their] requests.”
The Vatican has never disclosed the results of this consultation, something which “remained mysterious” even to Benedict himself.
Extensive leaks of the 2020 consultation have appeared, however, and seem to tell a rather different story about episcopal reaction to Benedict XVI’s 2007 motu proprio, with many testimonies to its fruitfulness and the peace it achieved. In fact, they revealed that the message from the majority of bishops was to continue with a prudent and careful application of Summorum Pontificum.
Questions of ecclesiastical prudence are never for the faint hearted, but in the present case it might be worth recalling the warning of Saul’s own teacher, Gamaliel, to the Sanhedrin in Acts 5:39: “If it is of God, you will not be able to overthrow them. You might even be found to be opposing God.”

GNC chairman buys $1M in company's stock after CEO change
Hines now owns 37,118 shares of GNC (NYSE: GNC), according to a document filed Tuesday with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission. Hines made the move the same month GNC replaced CEO Joe Fortunato with retail veteran Michael G. Archbold. The price for the transaction was $35.41 a share, according to the SEC filing. It was on the open market.
Hines' move is "a nice vote of confidence for shares, which are down considerably in 2014," the report said. "We view the insider purchase as another favorable development for the stock, following both the appointment of Mike Archbold as CEO and the company's recent increase to its buyback program."
GNC shares were up 3.6 percent to close at $36.39 on Tuesday on the New York Stock Exchange. That's up from its 52-week low of $30.84, but down from the $60.98 it had been earlier in the past year.
Hines has been a GNC board member since 2009. He was CFO of Dick's Sporting Goods Inc. (NYSE: DKS) between 1995 and 2007 and has also worked at Staples Inc. and Deloitte & Touche LLP. He has been on the board of TJX Cos. and Dunkin Brands Group Inc.

This article contains spoilers for Sherlock season 4, as well as for a Sherlock Holmes story originally published in 1913, but that you may not have gotten around to reading quite yet.
Sherlockseason 4has cast Toby Jones (Captain America: The Winter Soldier) as a season 4 villain, which is good news for fans of well-acted dramatic television — so, probably everyone who watches Sherlockon the regular.
Though the Sherlockproduction team has stayed characteristically tight-lipped about the details of Jones’ character, according to Cultbox, an update to Jones’ resume has spilled the beans… Jones will be playing classic Holmes villain Culverton Smith.
Smith appears in Sir Arthur Conan Doyle’s “The Adventure of the Dying Detective,” originally published in 1913. The villain murdered his nephew and tries to murder Sherlock via a spring-loaded box set to release an infectious disease, but Sherlock is, of course, one step ahead of him. He pretends to become gravely ill, drawing a confession out of Smith who believes Sherlock will never live to repeat it.
It will be fun to see this played out in some manner via BBC’s Sherlock.In the original story, Sherlock fools even John into thinking that he is seriously ill, which will no doubt inspire some of the angsty interpersonal moments that Sherlockdoes so well. “The Adventures of the Dying Detective” is set in Watson’s second year of marriage, which implies Mary Watson will still be alive and well in the second episode of season 4.
Sherlock co-showrunner Steven Moffat said of Jones’ casting: “Delighted to have Toby Jones on board, bringing to life one of Doyle’s finest villains,” with other co-showrunner/series star Mark Gatiss adding: “We’re thrilled to welcome one of our finest actors to the Sherlock family. I know Toby will embrace the part with true relish!”
We’re with Gatiss on this one. Jones is one of the best character actors currently working in British/American film and television, notably appearing as a complicatedly nefarious villain Arnim Zola, the Swiss (not German, Steve!) biochemist, in Captain America: The First Avenger, Captain America: The Winter Soldier, and (briefly in)Agent Carter.Other notable roles include the voice of Dobby in the Harry Potter film series, David Pilcher/Dr. Jenkins in Wayward Pines, and Alfred Hitchcock in The Girl.
In a sea of forgettable Marvel Cinematic Universe villains, Jones’ Zola is entirely memorable, which is why it’s so exciting to hear that he has been cast as a villain in Sherlock,a show that tends to be at its best when it has an interesting villain for its eponymous character to bounce off of. In the MCU, Zola doesn’t even need a body to be frightening, hilarious, and to get stuff done. Here Jones is as the disembodied voice of Zola in The Winter Soldier…

PalmSHIELD’s DANTE mechanical equipment screening incorporates both welded and woven wire mesh. Wires are woven together to create wire mesh in different patterns. Welded wire mesh simply lays the vertical wires over the top of the horizontal wires and uses a welding process that fuses the two wires together. The most common materials used to create woven wire and welded wire mesh include carbon steel, galvanized steel, aluminum mesh and stainless steel. Heavier woven wires must be pre-crimped. The material remains very strong and firm after the crimping process.

Getting to know a powerhouse is daunting. In this case, she's accomplished in so many areas, and so generous with her time, that I feel quite lazy by comparison.
Rita Buchanan first showed up on my radar screen with the detailed and accessible book, "A Weaver’s Garden." It discusses fiber plants – such as cotton, flax, and ramie – so the reader can grow, harvest, and turn them into usable fiber for spinning or weaving fabric. The same for the world of dye plants and soap plants. How to grow them and use them successfully is all there.
Later, I attended a two-day dye workshop that Rita taught at a sheep farm in Bunker Hill, W.Va. She was friendly and patient, but mostly excited about what she was showing us. We saw yellow indigo-dyed wool turn bright and gorgeous blue in the air. It was like magic.
Rita has continued to write garden books, including an indispensable guide to dye plants and several Taylor guides, including their landscape book. Her writing style is so clear and free of obstacles that following her advice is natural and easy.
Our acquaintance continued and every once in a while I have had the opportunity to visit her in Connecticut and share a bowl of soup. On my most recent visit, Rita was making a new blanket (from scratch), designing beautiful rugs based on garden photos, and making boxes from iris leaves, stems, and bits from the garden.
At the same time, we talked about feeding citrus plants through the winter, groundcovers that tolerate wet areas, and some of the exquisite artwork that her husband, Steve, has been doing.
Just thinking about accomplishing so much is daunting. To observe her footsteps is an inspiration. She is a no-nonsense gardening author who exemplifies clarity, simplicity, accessibility, generosity, and fascination with the natural world. Pick up one of her books as the snow melts and think spring.

In this brief guide, we will answer the question if you can eat garlic when pregnant and we will discuss health benefits and side effects.
Can you eat garlic when pregnant?
Yes, you can eat garlic when pregnant but there are a few necessary precautions you should take. Garlic is referred to as a super spice because it goes excellent with almost every food you can prepare. As with all food, it should be eaten in moderation but there are many advantages to eating garlic when pregnant.
For a very long time, garlic has been used in herbal medicine. Over the years, garlic is not harmful to pregnancy but neither any studies have found that it’s completely safe but there has never been a direct harmful effect on the baby or mom.
Some people may find that eating garlic when pregnant has caused heartburn and upset stomach, especially if eaten raw. So if you have any of these conditions you should try to avoid them.
According to the American Pregnancy Association, the FDA marks it as completely safe to eat garlic while pregnant. It is very important to mention that it talks about amounts commonly found in food and not taken as pills or medication.
What are the health benefits of garlic?
Garlic contains allicin that is responsible for all the benefits of eating garlic when pregnant but also responsible for the smell. It also contains a high amount of calcium, zinc, iron, and copper which help replenish the baby with trace elements and help develop the healthy bones and nervous systems of the baby and mom.
- Reduces high blood pressure
- Increases baby weight
- Lower cholesterol
- Lower blood pressure
- Antifungal and antibacterial properties
- Prevent Hair Loss
- Lower risk of preterm labor
Increases baby weight
Some research suggests that garlic may increase the weight of babies that may tend to have lower birth weight. Experiments show that adding garlic to placental cells stimulated growth.
Allicin, a compound found in garlic helps to reduce your cholesterol levels
and lower blood pressure
If you have preeclampsia, a condition where pregnant women tend to have high blood pressure and can harm the baby and the mother, garlic may help to lower blood pressure.
Antifungal and antibacterial properties
During pregnancy, our immune system tends to be lower or weaker. Garlic may help fight some infections and may help to boost our immune system.
Prevent hair loss
Some pregnant women tend to have more hair loss than normal. Allicin also helps to stimulate hair growth and prevent hair loss.
Lower the risk of preterm labor
Some old studies have suggested that antimicrobial and prebiotic properties may help to reduce preterm labor.
How much garlic can I eat when pregnant?
It suggests that pregnant women can eat as much as 4 buds of garlic and it’s recommended to not eat raw garlic when pregnant.
What are the side effects of eating too much garlic?
As said above, it can help to low blood pressure. So, if you have low blood pressure when pregnant you should be careful. Also, garlic may cause more bleeding than normal because garlic has blood thinners properties. It’s important to have this statement in mind. If you are in the third trimester you should be careful because you may undergo surgery.
Garlic can cause gastritis in some pregnant women, a condition that already exists just by the fact of being pregnant because of hormone changes and physical pressure of the baby growing.
Also, garlic may lower your blood sugar. If you are having problems with insulin and blood sugar you should eat in moderation.
There’s only one way that garlic may not be consumed when pregnant. Oil infused with garlic may carry a bacteria that can cause botulism, so it’s preferred not to consume it or to consume it between 4 days from preparation according to the CDC.
How can I eat garlic when pregnant?
You can add it almost to everything! From a cauliflower soup to almost any vegetable or protein, here are some ideas:
|Garlic butter with freshly baked bread|
|Cauliflower soup infused with garlic|
|Stir fry peas with garlic|
|Pasta with tomato sauce with garlic|
|Click here for some more recipes ideas|
In this brief article we answered the question if you can eat garlic when pregnant. We also talked about the benefits, how much you can eat, side effects, and some ideas to add to your diet.
If you have any questions please let me know.

This is a necessary move from Biden. US/Saudi relations have always been a cynical deal with the devil. We put up with their shittiness in exchange for them keeping the oil flowing. If the Saudis aren't going to help us on energy, why on earth should we deal with them at all?

Get your new booster! About 1.5 times as effective as the previous vaccine...plus, you're probably due.

Spencer LaVere Smith @Labrigger
Conservatives really struggle to explain how, specifically, liberals are to blame for a broad national increase in murder that mostly happened during Donald Trump’s presidency. It was because of vaccine mandates? Funding cuts that didn’t happen in the vast majority of places?
I think you can tell a pretty clear story that the crime wave happened because cops reacted to the Floyd protests with a de facto strike, but that winds up not being a flattering narrative for anyone.
It’s kind of trippy that we’re so much closer to having AI that can generate a feature film based on a simple text prompt than to having a robot that can make a turkey sandwich.
I think this is the wrong framing. US wars have run up a huge body count. The right framing: since the cold war there have been four (4) pretty straightforward "unprovoked" wars of aggression: Iraq-Kuwait US-Iraq Russia-Georgia Russia-Ukraine

Popular Twitch streamer, MuTeX recently did a stream in which he talked about the ongoing issue of streamers boycotting Warzone because of hacking and cheating concerns. The streamer called their action “pointless” and claimed that the game is already too big for it to get affected by such things.
Warzone and Cheating
Warzone players have complained about cheaters since its early days. There exist players in the game that don’t like playing by the rules. They either abuse exploits to gain an advantage over other players or simply use third-party software. The most commonly used software is aimbot, something that allows them to land their shots accurately without hitting the target.
Since the first complaint, Warzone’s developers are constantly trying new ways through which they can eliminate such players from the game and put an end to hackers once and for all. However, no matter how much they try, they just can’t prevent new ones from appearing in the game. They did take drastic measures such as issuing hardware bans to players who were caught cheating multiple times, but that too has failed to solve the issue. At the time of writing, more than half a million accounts have been banned. However, cheaters still continue to ruin the experience of many players.
MuTeX Says Boycotting Warzone Is Useless
The biggest issue is that top Warzone streamers on Twitch often become a victim of hackers. The issue is getting serious as a lot of them are boycotting Warzone because they are tired of facing hackers in almost every other lobby. They are backing off from Warzone while hoping that their action might make the developers take more serious actions against hackers. However, MuTeX recently claimed that boycotting the game isn’t the solution and there is no point in doing that.
As per MuTeX, streamers are one of the biggest reasons why Warzone is as popular as it is today. He further added that the issue of hacking in Warzone will not get fixed by quitting the game for some time. While talking about this, he claimed streamers don’t mean anything to the developers and that they don’t “give a f***” about them. This is mainly because streamers make up only a small percentage of Warzone’s player base. Even if they quit the game and stop streaming it, their action won’t have any effect on the game’s player count.
Warzone Might Die Because of Hackers
While MuTeX opposed the idea of boycotting Warzone because of cheating issues, he did claim that the game will de in a month or two if the issue of hacking does not get addressed properly. He is kind of right since almost every player has encountered a hacker at least once, and lobbies these days are filled with them.
Recently, FaZe Kalei also came forward with some statements in which she claimed that she won’t be participating in public Warzone events because of hackers. In a series of now-deleted tweets, she requested the developers to introduce private lobbies so that they can host events free of cheaters. In any case, let’s just hope that the developers do something about this issue before things get out of hand.

Iranian-backed hackers targeted the personal email accounts of U.S. Treasury officials around the time President TrumpDonald TrumpFormer Sen. Heller to run for Nevada governor Overnight Defense & National Security — Milley becomes lightning rod Joint Chiefs Chairman Milley becomes lightning rod on right MORE reimposed sanctions on the country, according to an Associated Press report.
The news outlet on Thursday reported that the cybersecurity firm Certfa found a hacking group known as “Charming Kitten” had spent the past month trying to access the officials’ private email accounts through a phishing campaign.
The Treasury Department is responsible for imposing the sanctions and the economic penalties have been widely decried by the Iranian government.
The hacking group also reportedly went after prominent figures supporting, enforcing or arguing against the Iran nuclear deal, which Trump formally withdrew from last month. Among those targeted were foreign nuclear experts and staffers at D.C. think tanks.
The AP reported that the security researchers were able to identify some of the people who were targeted by the campaign after the hacking group inadvertently left a server exposed to the internet.
In a report released Thursday, the Certfa researchers wrote that the hackers appeared to have gathered information about those targeted before launching the attacks.
“The hackers design specific plans for each target based on the level of targets’ cyber knowledge, their contacts, activities, working time, and their geographic situation,” the report reads.
Experts had anticipated that Iran would respond to last month’s sanctions through cyber means.
Lawmakers and experts have also repeatedly cited Iran as a prominent cyber threat to the U.S., alongside China, North Korea and Russia.


Is Steam’s GreenLight Hero or a Villain to the indie developer?
Steam released GreenLight as a portal to having Independent games placed on the mega giant’s digital distribution system, but more and more indie are developers are talking about how bad this whole program is!
Let’s face it if you started and indie game studio tonight, the first thing you should get into your head is you will be judged and people will be brutally honest. So you should develop a thick skin before releasing anything about your game.
After talking to several indie developers through Skype, twitter and some email tag we have a much clearer picture about what happens once your game get puts on GreenLight. Peer review for your game I think not!
The stories being told are pretty much the same. You get people saying your game sucks because the music isn’t up to par! Or your game sucks because the graphics aren’t up to the AAA game company standards. Yeah well tell us something we didn’t already know.
The next issue most people are seeing is people voting just to vote. What does this mean? Well Steam rewards people with points for each vote, if you reach a certain number you have rank inside Steam. So they made it an incentive to vote, vote without every writing a critique or saying how the game make you feel.
After hearing this we did a little research on GreenLight’s boards and what we saw was that people who vote on GreenLight are very rude and downright brutal. Once again this is where the thick skin should come in to play.
In my eyes the GreenLight program was made with good intentions. It is a great program it just isn’t handled or executed very well.
The amount of indie games that will get put on Steam will be very low, we know that. So I’m not sure if this even helps the indie community at all, if it does it will only be a small group.
I still see a positive out of using GreenLight in the exposure of your game. Yes it might not all be good and most case it won’t be good at all, but at least you have received some feedback. You should also get some traffic to your website and many gain a few fans.
After interviewing each of the Indie Developers I asked the same question to end our session. Would they use GreenLight again? I got the same answer from each. No!
Edit:After releasing this article I wanted to come back and explain one thing. I didn’t use the names of people above to protect them from any backlash. I understand some people may be skeptical of the claims above, but I assure you these are 100% true. Believe what you will.
One response to Is Steam’s GreenLight Hero or a Villain to the indie developer?


When it comes to the global economy and their companies’ growth prospects, optimists are few and far between. Only 27% of CEOs believe global economic growth will improve in the next 12 months, with 23% convinced it will actually decline over that time, according to PwC’s 19th Annual Global CEO Survey released on Tuesday of 1,400 executives spanning 83 countries. Moreover, only 35% are very confident their companies’ revenues will grow this year – the lowest percentage since 2010. In addition, 66% surveyed said there are more threats to growth today than there were three years ago (compared with 59% last year).
And these were the responses in November – I suspect events over the last several weeks would produce an even more dour outlook today. Political turmoil, terrorism across the continents, China’s economic upheaval, this year’s stock market volatility, and various debt crises (to name just a few global issues) all confront CEOs. Indeed, CEOs are taking a healthy, realistic approach to the issues confronting their organizations rather than overly optimistic mindsets that would point them in the wrong direction.
Also, when we questioned what’s behind CEOs’ views on business growth over the next year, the top three concerns were overregulation (79%), geopolitical uncertainty (74%), and exchange rate volatility (73%). In other words, what CEOs want most is a stable, fair environment in which to compete – or at least to understand the rules under which they’re competing. They worry, however, that their actual environment is neither stable nor fair – when identifying concerns, the biggest percentage increases over last year’s findings were worries over social instability and bribery and corruption.
U.S. CEOs’ concerns are more severe. While 42% of global CEOs are extremely concerned about regulatory overreach, 65% of U.S. CEOs are extremely concerned.
Notably, CEOs see trends that promise an even less predictable competitive landscape. They see trade, economic models, and regulatory frameworks splintering increasingly along regional or national lines.
The survey also found that the biggest impacts on business strategies are customers and clients (90%), government and regulators (69%), and industry competitors and peers(66%). Take a look at those last two figures again – government and regulators are impacting corporate strategies more than competitors and peers. The reasons for that have much to do with global regulators regulating differently, creating a patchwork legal environment that is always in flux. More than half, 81% of CEOs, see the world moving to multiple rules and away from a single global system of law and liberties.
When you reflect on the existing regulations, the uncertainty over the interpretation and enforcement of proposed rules, and the need to be prepared for laws yet to be written, it’s easy to see the substantial compliance costs this global regulatory checkerboard imposes.
Increasingly, CEOs see a need for their organizations to be more purpose-driven, in a way that aligns with stakeholder values beyond financial returns. Put another way, 76% of CEOs agree that business success will be defined by more than just financial profit. As a result, they’re doing more to identify stakeholders’ broader expectations and to communicate corporate efforts to address them.
Customers, of course, are a key focus in these efforts. While 70% of CEOs said that seeking a traditional mix of costs, convenience, and functionality in their products or services best describes their customers, 27% believe that seeking relationships with organizations that address wider stakeholders better describes customers.
That’s a high number – one that CEOs see growing much higher. Forty-four percent of CEOs believe that, in five years, successful organizations will be described by customers seeking relationships with organizations that address wider needs. These include such issues as environmental sustainability, contributions to local communities, and workforce rights and wellbeing.
Coming into 2015, CEOs faced the need to disrupt without being disrupted. They faced a talent gap in an increasingly competitive global and mobile workforce. These challenges remain, but now they see a fragmented world fragmenting further. And, they face the task of meeting not just traditional needs of investors, customers, and employees, but a wider set of values-driven demands. Consequently, many CEOs plan on playing it safe while others may plan retreat and still others may be aggressive and bold. We’ll see what are the right choices. Time will tell, and I’ll check in over this next year to let you know which succeed.

Uefa has defended the decision to award a penalty to Tottenham Hotspur after a VAR check for Fernando Llorente’s decisive goal against Manchester City on Wednesday.
The ball appeared to touch Llorente’s arm before ricocheting off his hip and into the net, sending Spurs through to the Champions League semi-finals on away goals.
BT Sport’s live broadcast of the match showed the angle referee Cuneyt Cakir was repeatedly watching on the VAR screen at the side of the pitch.
The angle made any contact with Llorente’s arm unclear, and it was suggested Cakir should have viewed another clearer angle to determine whether the the ball touched the striker’s arm.
“All relevant angles were made available to the referee to take his decision last night.”
After signalling the goal stood, Cakir pointed to his hip suggesting there was no contact with Llorente’s arm.
According to the MEN, a UEFA spokesperson said: “All relevant angles were made available to the referee to take his decision last night.”
In a column for Yahoo! Sport, former referee Keith Hackett claimed similar goals will be ruled out next season.
Subscribe to Squawka’s Youtube channel here.
“Roberto Rossetti, Uefa’s head of refereeing, said he would not allow any goal to be scored with use of hand,” Hackett wrote.
“The International Football Association Board announced in March that future handballs will be given against a player if their arms extend “beyond a natural silhouette” – even if accidental.”
Tottenham will now face Ajax in the semi-finals while Manchester City’s attention will turn to the Premier League title race.

The recent comments from Council Member Rev. Ruben Diaz, Sr. were a malicious and repulsive attack on the LGBTQ community. Unfortunately, this is not the first time Council Member Diaz has attacked the LGBTQ community, from opposing marriage equality to denigrating transgender individuals. His recent comments come without regret or apology.
At a time when, at the federal level, anti-immigrant and anti-LGBTQ sentiment is blatant, protections for LGBTQ people are being threatened, LGBTQ youth are becoming homeless, and violence against LGBTQ individuals is rising, homophobic comments suggesting that the LGBTQ community ‘controls New York City Council’ obscures the hate and invisibility this vulnerable community actually faces. Instead of validating anti-LGBTQ sentiments at the federal level, New York City officials should be validating and affirming support for the LGBTQ community, working to ensure that the city is and remains a safe and supportive space for all New Yorkers.
In solidarity and support of the LGBT Caucus, Speaker Johnson and the greater LGBTQ community, we call on Council Member Diaz to resign his position effective immediately. Furthermore, we call upon the NYC Council Committee on Standards and Ethics to open an investigation into this matter and act swiftly. His failure to respect the institution in which he serves and the Bronx constituents that rely on him to protect them combined with his inability to understand that his comments have real world consequences leave us with no other option but to call for new representation.
The Progressive Caucus of the New York City Council stands up to hate in all its forms. We join the LGBT caucus in affirming that all New Yorkers, especially Council Member Diaz’s LGBTQ constituents, should know that hate has no place in our city.

Fundraising has started to help a toddler with cerebral palsy have groundbreaking therapy after the NHS would not fund the treatment.
Shabnam Nazir needs to raise thousands of pounds for a new treatment she says will help her two-year-old daughter Amelia live more independently.
The Advanced Bio-mechanical Rehabilitation (ABR) uses exercises to loosen body muscles to reduce the effects of the condition.
After the NHS refused to fund the therapy, Mrs Nazir, of Barnstone Vale in Pinders Heath, teamed up with Tree of Hope, a charity which helps sick children, to collect donations.
Mrs Nazir, who gave up her job to look after Amelia full-time, has managed to fund the first stage of treatment later this month but she still needed around £5,000 a year.
She said: “I still need funding for the rest of the year. The therapy will continue for as long as Amelia needs it, depending on how she progresses. The ABR will reduce the spasticity in Amelia’s muscles and hopefully help her to crawl, sit and walk.”
Parents carry out exercises for around four hours a day with their children after being trained in ABR by specialists in Glasgow.
Sarah Craven, 32, started her son Alex, 2, who also has cerebral palsy, on the ABR therapy a year ago.
Mrs Craven, of Glasshoughton, said: “Alex has improved massively. He can do things he couldn’t do before like sit up and hold his own weight. He can kneel on his own.
“ABR puts very slight pressure on different parts of the body using objects like sponge pads and pilates balls. It helps to build up and strengthen the internal structure of the body.”
NHS bosses said ABR was not normally funded but could be considered on a case-by-case basis if parents made an individual funding request.
But Mrs Nazir said Amelia must have the treatment before she gets any older.
She added: “If anybody could help me organise fundraising events they are welcome to get in touch with me.”

A footnote to this statement adds, “The first commercially available chalav Yisrael in America, Balsam Farms, under the supervision of the Tzehlimer Rav, began production in the late 1930s. This milk was not available in Manhattan due to lack of demand. In 1940 Rav Breuer arranged for it to be sold in Washington Heights, and when Balsam could not keep up with the demand, made arrangements for supervision of what became known as Kahal Dairies. Later, J&J milk came under the Kehillah’s [KAJ’s] supervision.”
Thus, the Tzehlimer Rav first supervised Balsam milk, not Kahal milk, which came later. Also, it is clear from the information about the Raskas dairy that Balsam Farms was not the first commercially available chalav Yisrael in America

Carl Icahn’s Beautiful Trade
The derivatives market is vast imbroglio of different futures contracts, some deriving their movements from changing levels of inflation, others pure gambles on the weather.
One derivative contract has attracted more Superinvestor attention this week than all the rest. It’s not WTI oil or the VIX volatility index; it’s the ‘CMBX Series 6,’ a wager on shopping malls.
Specifically, the CMBX Series 6 is linked to the quality of debt issued to shopping malls. The index goes up when traders think Macy’s and Dick’s Sporting Goods will enjoy lots of footfall and pay their dues to creditors. The index goes down when traders think these brick-and-mortar giants will never return borrowed money again.
The CMBX boasts a who’s who of buyers and sellers, jam-packed on both sides with talent from Wall Street’s biggest funds. It’s billionaires’ row! Activist investor Carl Icahn has shorted the malls with Deutsche Bank and Morgan Stanley. AllianceBernstein and Putnam Investments are taking the opposite side; betting malls will recover soon.
Icahn made an incredible 50% on his short bet through coronavirus, calling it a “beautiful trade on a risk-reward basis.” It’s more expensive to short something as it falls in price because more investors are trying to do it, and you need a buyer to borrow from. When unemployment hit lows, faith in the index grew, and Icahn moved in as a lone bear.
According to First Insight, a retail analytics firm, two-thirds of the US population say they will feel unsafe shopping in a mall when lockdown lifts. The coronavirus impact has probably already sealed the fate of a good chunk of debt, so the CMBX could go lower. This being said, retail is tipped for a fast rebound. Major mall operator Simon Property Group is reopening dozens of malls already, and the index is finding resistance.
You can bypass the CMBX Series 6 and head straight for the underlying retail stocks to get in on the action. The Invstr community is on Icahn’s side when it comes to tenants like Macy’s, currently 30% bearish. Its landlord, Simon Property Group, is only 16% bearish. Could this mean bullish sentiment will trickle down to Macy’s soon?


He has presided over a lax and corrupt system, attempted to keep the payments made under it secret and set his face against its reform – a position he now acknowledges to be unsustainable.
But ousting the Speaker will not bring an end to this matter.
As Kevin Barron – one of Mr Martin’s few remaining parliamentary supporters – pointed out yesterday, the Speaker did not force MPs to fill in dodgy expenses claims. They did that all on their own.
The fact that many MPs were able to resist the temptation to milk the system shows that parliamentarians were under no compulsion to make excessive claims other than the compulsion of their own greed.
So those who did so need to account for their conduct to their electors.
MPs of all parties yesterday publicly acknowledged that Parliament is facing a major crisis of public confidence.
The British people are furious about the way their money has been plundered by their elected representatives.
The only way to restore legitimacy to MPs is to force them to seek a fresh mandate on the basis of their individual conduct.
Until a General Election is held, the stench of sleaze will continue to seep from Westminster whether Mr Martin is in the chair or not.

The Securities and Exchange Commission said yesterday it has settled a securities fraud complaint against Dwight C. Moorhead, cofounder of Petro-Lewis Corp. who was accused of selling stock in Petro-Lewis at a time when the company's growing financial troubles were not known to the public.
Moorhead agreed to a permanent injunction against violations of securities laws, without admitting wrongdoing. The consent agreement settles the SEC's insider trading complaint against Moorhead, which was also made public yesterday by the agency.
Moorhead told the Dow Jones news service that he believes he did nothing wrong and settled the suit only to avoid costly litigation.
According to the SEC complaint, Moorhead sold 41,122 shares of Petro-Lewis common stock between Dec. 21, 1983, and Jan. 16, 1984, when the price was about $12 a share. In the subsequent months, when Petro-Lewis' investors became aware of the company's financial crisis, the price plummeted to $4 a share. Moorhead resigned as Petro-Lewis' vice chairman last January, saying he wanted to pursue other business interests. He told Dow Jones he sold the stock at prices below what he had originally paid for it in order to pay a bank loan.
In its prime, the Denver-based Petro-Lewis was the nation's largest marketer of oilfield-income partnerships, an investment in which returns were based upon revenue from oil and gas properties acquired and managed by Petro-Lewis. The company's aggressive marketing campaign wooed more than 200,000 investors, who had purchased $2.4 billion in income funds by the end of 1983.
But it was an investment that depended upon rising oil prices and an inflationary economy to continue to generate returns for the growing number of investors. The company's expansion led it into increasingly costly acquisitions of oil and gas properties, leaving it more and more vulnerable to a drop in oil prices.
When recession struck in the early 1980s and oil prices plummeted, Petro-Lewis faced a sudden drain in revenue that nearly bankrupted the company. Beginning in 1983, it began to sell some of its oil and gas holdings to repay bank debts, slashed its payroll and then cut its income distribution to investors.
The SEC, in its complaint against Moorhead, alleged that he sold the stock while in possession of non-public information about the financial condition of Petro-Lewis and its partnerships, including its cash flow and credit agreements. An earlier SEC suit accused Petro-Lewis of misleading investors from April 1982 to February 1984 about the company's financial plight.
In 1984 Petro-Lewis was sued in a class action by partnership investors, who alleged that they were not advised of the extent of the risk in the Petro-Lewis limited partnerships. The suit was settled with payments of 55 cents on the dollar by the company.


The dashing and talented Jr NTR is arguably one of the most popular names in the Telugu film industry. And, of late, the young superstar has been in the limelight thanks to his eagerly-awaited ‘Jai Lava Kusa’. An action-drama, the film has already created a buzz amongst fans thanks to its gripping trailer and will hit screens this Thursday. Today, let us take a quick look at five reasons that make ‘Jai Lava Kusa’ a must watch.
1) A Jr NTR show all the way: Jr NTR has over the past few years established himself as a dependable performer and delivered commendable performances in films such as ‘Janatha Garage’. ‘Jai Lava Kusa’ features him in a triple role and hence serves as a perfect platform for him to showcase his versatility as an actor. Needless to say, one can expect the ‘Young Tiger’ to make good use of the platform and entertain his fans like never before.
2) A relatable plot: Based on the trailer, it can safely be said that ‘Jai Lava Kusa’ will revolve around the rivalry between three brothers. Moreover, at the same time, it will touch upon the victory of good over evil. These are some relatable themes and have previously formed the basis of successful films such as ‘Baahubali’. As such, ‘Jai Lava Kusa’ could indeed make a delightful watch for all and sundry.
3) It is a complete package: ‘Jai Lava Kusa’ is a complete package in the truest sense. It is bound to feature a nice mix of action, emotions, and drama. Moreover, as it features 2 lovely ladies Nivetha Thomas and Raashi Khanna in the lead, one can expect it to feature a fair deal of romance/glamour as well.
4) Devi Sri Prasad’s lifting tunes: DSP is arguably one of the most sought-after music composers in Southern cinema today. And he seems to have hit the bulls-eye with ‘Jai Lava Kusa’. Tracks such as ‘Swing Zara’ have already become a rage amongst movie buffs and are bound to enhance the entertainment quotient in a big way. Moreover, if the songs gel well with the narrative, they are bound to enhance the story’s recall value in a big way.
5) It captures the festive mood quite well: The festive occasion of Dusshera is just around the corner and all of us are gearing up for some celebrations. With its references to Ravana and the good vs evil theme, ‘Jai Lava Kusa’ gels with this lively mood quite well and does full justice to the festive spirit. All in all, it is just what the doctor ordered this Dusshera.
So, have you booked your tickets for ‘Jai Lava Kusa’? Do you feel it will set new records at the box office? Tell us in the space below.


IndyMac Bancorp Inc. said Friday that it made $3.3 billion in loans in March, a 63 percent decline from a year earlier. For February, IndyMac had reported $3.5 billion in mortgages, which was off 58 percent from a year earlier.
However, the parent of IndyMac Bank said that its loan quality has improved. Only 1 percent of new borrowers missed their first mortgage payment down from 1.8 percent in February and 3 percent in August when IndyMac first began shifting its focus toward higher-quality loans.
IndyMac also said that 88 percent of loans issued in March were eligible for sale to government-sponsored enterprises Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac.
IndyMac is coming off of reporting its first loss in its 23-year history. It also made its first sale of securities in more than two months earlier this week, as the company's Chief Executive, Michael Perry, continues to try to turn the company to profitability.
Shares in IndyMac were up 1.5 percent to $4.41 in early trading Friday

For useful care information click on Guini's picture to get to her BlogTweets by @moonlabradoodle Over The Moon Labradoodles
We strive to breed puppies that are non-shedding and allergy friendly.
If you have concerns about allergies in your house please find more information about the labradoodle and allergies on our
Labradoodles and Allergies Information page.
Our puppies have flown all over North America and even to Europe. They can do this easily because we make sure before they set out on their journey they are crate trained and are old enough to travel. Our puppies stay with us until they are 11 weeks of age. They are spayed or neutered and have had two out of the three sets of vaccinations. They receive Bordatella (kennel cough) vaccine if they are older and go to play group. International travelers receive a rabies vaccine. Usually puppies travel more easily than many humans, Jean included.
Doulton sleeps in his crate all night, walks on leash and sits nicely for kibble. Please click on Doulton's picture above to see his movie and to find out more about him.
Chico is 1 1/2 tomorrow - where did the time go. He really is the most wonderful little fellow with a great sense of fun, easily making friends with all the dogs & people he meets. Here he is yesterday outside the groomers with his spring cut. Thank you for the best little companion I could ask for. Sadie & Chester certainly produce special puppies.
A labradoodle is a sensitive dog and training is easy. We begin the training process here when the puppy is very young.

To make sure our labradoodle dogs are of the highest quality we do health testing for both parents. Our Little Button Puppy will lead you to the information about our testing.
Our puppies come with a health guarantee.
We stimulate newborn puppies to ensure optimum neurological growth using the Bio Sensor program developed by the US military for their working dogs.
We love the Australian Labradoodle for his joyful temperament and wish to make our contribution to the growth and development of this breed. We have a very small breeding program and our aim is to provide a few, loved Australian labradoodle puppies that will be healthy family pets.
Australian Labradoodles were designed to fit with today's families.

Australian Labradoodles have a naturally happy, affectionate temperament but as with a puppy of any breed they require constant attention and socialization in those early weeks to bring our their wonderful potential.
Our puppies have a head start in life with our individual Head Start Puppy training.They learn to come and sit at our feet for a kibble which is the first step in puppy manners. They learn to follow us outside. They meet 50 different people before they go home so they are used to strangers. They play with children and they learn to sleep in their crate at night.
We are often asked if our puppies are raised in the house or an out building. It is a good and important question. These are Guinivere's puppies when they were little. After three weeks of age they come down from the nursery to their new home in the dining room. Dinner parties are relegated to the garage until puppies are old enough to be part of the household.
Welcoming a puppy into your home is a big step. We have found that our Australian Labradoodle families put a great deal of thought and care into their decision. Many families have done extensive research and are interested in the history of the Australian Labradoodle as well as the differences between the different types of Labradoodles. We have tried to provide as much information as we can about how you can prepare for the new arrival and happily bring a puppy into your home.
On our Adopting A Labrdoodle Page We have information about Australian Labradoodle care and easy tips for introducing a Labradoodle Puppy to young children. We have training ideas and a page of online Labradoodle shopping possibilities. We also love to share your Labradoodle stories and pictures.
Our dogs have brought us such amazing joy. Every time we place a dog with a family we relive the happy excitement of the arrival of a new puppy. It is the best!
I have been meaning to write about how much this now 7 month old puppy has enriched my life. I got Lucca when he was five months and spent a couple of months sending numerous emails back and forth to Jean. I really felt I bonded and got to know him through her and her messages and even videos of my little guy. Lucca is a medium black with the most fun loving nature in the world. He is playful and yet gentle, he is frisky and yet calm and he learns faster than any dog I have ever met. I was told to stay away from the Labradoodle Breed, mostly from people who have not researched and learned that these are not a lab with a high strung poodle disposition. The Australian Labradoodle is a wonderful breed of it's own and I feel so lucky to have met Jean on line and now have the very best dog in the world ( a bit biased) They have the most wonderful calm nature and they are very smart. Whenever I take him to some ones place they comment on how good and calm he is and how he is welcome back anytime, even for a sleepover sometimes. :) I have also been taking him to doggy daycare and they love him there. They say he has so much fun and that he gets all the other dogs playing and there isn't a dog there that doesn't like him too. I told a staff member that he just loved going there as he gets so excited on the way in and she said " Well we love having him here" and smiled. We are in the car a lot as we live in the city and he does not make a peep in the car. He is so good. We had a little car sickness issue for a bit if we travel too far , but he seems to have been fine lately. I just wanted to express to anyone checking out this breed that if you are serious about getting one of these Doodles you are making a very good decision. Thank you Jean and LizSherry and Lucca Starr
