Cops need your help in finding two would-be bandits who shocked a man with a stun gun and assaulted him in Corona earlier this month.
Law enforcement sources said the robbery attempt occurred at 1 a.m. on April 15 inside an apartment building in the vicinity of 108th Street and 38th Avenue.
According to authorities, the 40-year-old victim left his apartment when he noticed a package at his doorstep. When he reached down to pick it up, the two suspects — both of whom stand about 6 feet tall and were last seen wearing multicolored motorcycle helmets and dark clothing — emerged from the hallway stairwell and attacked him.
Police said the duo shoved and restrained the man, then zapped him in the chest with a stun gun. The man’s wife then came out of the residence and screamed, which startled the robbers. The crooks then fled the scene on foot in an unknown direction.
Officers from the 115th Precinct responded to the incident. The victim suffered small lacerations to his chest as well as an abrasion and bruising, but refused medical attention at the scene.
On April 23, police released video footage of the suspects walking into the apartment building and riding inside an elevator.
Anyone with information regarding the suspects’ whereabouts can call Crime Stoppers at 800-577-TIPS (for Spanish, dial 888-57-PISTA). Tips can also be sent to the Crime Stoppers website or by text message to 274637 (CRIMES), then enter TIP577. All calls and messages are kept confidential.

The Tale of Positive Psychology and Behavioral Economics
0 min read
With the recent rise and popularisation of behavioral economics, there has been a proliferation of research on the applications of psychological principles in influencing decision making. The primary tools used by behavioral economists are nudges, which are methods of influencing behavior by employing the very biases and barriers that prevent us from carrying out a desirable behavior.
While social psychology and cognitive neuroscience have shared the limelight with behavioral economics in designing nudges, there has been little mention of the connection with positive psychology, and its contributions to the field. This article seeks to make salient the impact of positive psychology on behavioral economics for practitioners and students alike. We will do this by examining existing research and constructs from both fields, with relevance to education, healthcare, and everyday optimal living.
Behavioral Science, Democratized
We make 35,000 decisions each day, often in environments that aren’t conducive to making sound choices.
At TDL, we work with organizations in the public and private sectors—from new startups, to governments, to established players like the Gates Foundation—to debias decision-making and create better outcomes for everyone.
The Zeitgeist of Contemporary Psychology
Around the same time as behavioral economics was gaining ground within scientific circles, psychology witnessed the emergence of a new subfield — positive psychology. Pioneers Seligman and Csikszentmihalyi (2000) defined positive psychology as “the scientific study of positive human functioning and flourishing on multiple levels that include the biological, personal, relational, institutional, cultural, and global dimensions of life.” Early detractors criticised the field’s presumed sole focus on the positive side of the spectrum of emotions and behavior, which positive psychologists disproved by studying concepts such as grief, conflict, and grit, and incorporating them into theories of learned helplessness, resilience, and flow.
The last decade has seen several ideas derived from positive psychology frameworks applied to behavioral economics experiments. Alex Linley, a prominent positive psychologist, partially credited positive psychology with influencing the shift towards behavioral economics (Jarden, 2012). He also emphasised the opportunities for mutual learning and collaboration that exist between the two. This is particularly relevant in areas of education, health, charity, and habit formation, where we can observe real world economic impacts.
How Positive Psychology Contributes to Learning
The Behavioral Insights Team, UK, has run a number of studies examining the effectiveness of different interventions in advancing student success. Personal engagement, flow, grit, and social support are fostered through some of these intervention designs.
In a study that sought to improve student achievement, the team devised exercises to cultivate grit: the passion and persistence to attain a long term goal (Duckworth, Peterson, Matthews, & Kelly, 2007). This involved deep practice and skills to overcome frustration . Deep practice is one of the steps necessary for achieving Flow, a state in which we are intensely involved in a task, which in itself becomes a reward. Students who received the training exhibited an almost 10% boost in attendance relative to those who did not receive the intervention, suggesting that they might have been more motivated to learn.
In a current ongoing study, aptly named Project College Success (Groot & Sanders, 2017), students can nominate a study supporter, who will receive scheduled text messages with conversational prompts about school work. These prompts guide the development of a supportive relationship dynamic. Positive relationships, an element of Seligman’s (2011) PERMA Model (which outlines five pillars of well-being), can be understood as reciprocal, supportive relationships, which reduce stress (Cohen, 2004), and promote development and achievement (Marcon, 1999), to name a few.
Behavioral Insights for Health Promotion
A fundamental roadblock to long term maintenance of healthy actions is present bias – the tendency to value present payoffs more than payoffs in the future. This, when combined with loss aversion (we pay more attention to what we will lose, than to what we will potentially gain), presents a formidable impediment, especially with health behaviors like exercising, weight loss, or smoking cessation, which are not particularly enjoyable at the outset. As we will see, positive psychology can play a role in bypassing these barriers to long-term health promotion.
Several programs have studied the efficacy of providing financial incentives to encourage health behaviors. While this is effective in initiating behavioral change, studies show that financial incentives may be engendering extrinsic motivation, but “crowding out” intrinsic motivation — so when the external goal (money) is removed, the individual no longer feels like continuing the behavior (Lewis & Black, 2015).
Any behavior tends to fizzle out when one is not intrinsically motivated to do it. But the move from extrinsic to intrinsic motivation can occur with the help of positive psychology. When Babcock & Hartman (2009) provided students with financial incentives for gym attendance, they noticed that those with friends who were also in the study tended to perform better than those who didn’t.
In another trial, financial incentives and peer mentorship were compared to usual care in the context of controlling blood glucose levels for diabetic veterans. Normal care included information about haemoglobin A1c (which indicates blood glucose levels) and ideal goal levels of HbA1c. The financial incentive arm involved participants receiving $100 for 1% reduction in blood glucose levels, and $200 for 2% reduction. In the peer mentorship program, participants were paired up with mentors from the same cultural background who had succeeded in bringing their diabetes under control. The strategic pairing of mentors & mentees encouraged comradeship and understanding, resulting in peer mentorship emerging as the most effective intervention. (Long, Jahnle, Richardson, Loewenstein, & Volpp, 2012). Peer support can help us not only stay on the track and be accountable, but it also cultivates optimism, trust, and a community feeling that we’re all in this together.
Habit Formation and Optimal Living
Targeted interventions aside, how can behavioral economics help us in everyday living? Enter Fabulous, an app that was incubated at the Center for Advanced Hindsight at Duke University, with the unique purpose of transforming your life through positive habit formation aided by insights from behavioral economics. Think of it as a gentle guide and an enthusiastic cheerleader rolled into one.
The AI Governance Challenge
The overarching theme of Fabulous is to harness the power of mindfulness (i.e., paying purposeful attention to the present in a non-judgmental way) to promote rituals involving healthy eating, exercise, productivity, and more. Each ritual begins with a self-made list of reasons why the behavior is important to us, followed by affirmations, and an option to pre-commit to the ritual . When this method was tested for exercise, Fabulous users reported increased frequency of exercise, likelihood to continue exercising, and enjoyment in both the exercise and its preceding ritual. Fabulous is a truly fabulous (pun intended) union of positive psychology and behavioral economics, with the added plus of a beautiful design and UI (no surprise, it won the Google Play Award for Best Use of Material Design last year). Put together, it makes for a great user experience as you’re making your way towards positive living.
The aforementioned research illustrates how nudges designed with inputs from positive psychology make for positive, long term behavioral change. In contrast to nudges using merely financial gains or other extrinsic goals, those with elements of positive relationships, grit, mindfulness, and social support seem to show promise in sustaining desirable behavior. It is worth noting that while positive psychology has been used in behavioral nudges in the past, there are unplumbed depths in both disciplines, with lots left to learn and discover. In light of these realities, research with a focus on using positive psychology constructs to design better and more effective behavioral strategies appears to be an area ripe with future opportunities.

Alcohol; viticultural area designations: Seneca Lake, NY,
[Federal Register: July 3, 2003 (Volume 68, Number 128)]
[Rules and Regulations]
From the Federal Register Online via GPO Access [wais.access.gpo.gov]
DEPARTMENT OF THE TREASURY
Alcohol and Tobacco Tax and Trade Bureau
27 CFR Part 9
[TTB T.D.-3; Re: Notice No. 957]
Seneca Lake Viticultural Area (99R-260P)
AGENCY: Alcohol and Tobacco Tax and Trade Bureau (TTB), Treasury.
ACTION: Treasury decision, final rule.
SUMMARY: This Treasury decision establishes the ``Seneca Lake'' viticultural area located in upstate New York. The Seneca Lake viticultural area encompasses about 204,600 acres of land surrounding Seneca Lake within the established Finger Lakes viticultural area. We take this action under the authority of the Federal Alcohol Administration Act and our wine labeling and advertising regulations.
EFFECTIVE DATE: This final rule is effective on September 2, 2003.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Kristy Col[oacute]n, Regulations and Procedures Division, Alcohol and Tobacco Tax and Trade Bureau, 650 Massachusetts Avenue, NW., Washington, DC 20226; (202) 927-8210.
Background on Viticultural Areas
What Is Treasury's and TTB's Authority To Establish a Viticultural Area?
The Federal Alcohol Administration Act (FAA Act) at 27 U.S.C. 205(e) requires that alcohol beverage labels provide the consumer with adequate information regarding a product's identity and prohibits the use of deceptive information on such labels. The FAA Act also authorizes the Secretary of the Treasury to issue regulations to carry out the Act's provisions.
Regulations in 27 CFR part 4, Labeling and Advertising of Wine, allow the establishment of definitive viticultural areas. The regulations allow the name of an approved viticultural area to be used as an appellation of origin on wine labels and in wine advertisements. Title 27 CFR Part 9, American Viticultural Areas, contains the list of approved viticultural areas.
What Is the Definition of an American Viticultural Area?
Section 4.25a(e)(1), title 27 CFR, defines an American viticultural area as a delimited grape-growing region distinguishable by geographical features, the boundaries of which have been delineated in subpart C of part 9. The establishment of viticultural areas allows the identification of regions where a given quality, reputation, or other characteristics of the wine is essentially attributable to its geographic origin. The establishment of viticultural areas is intended to help wineries to accurately describe the origin of their wines to consumers and to help consumers identify the wines they purchase. Establishment of a viticultural area is neither an approval nor endorsement of the wine produced there.
What Is Required To Establish a Viticultural Area?
Section 4.25a(e)(2) outlines the procedure for proposing an American viticultural area. Any interested person may petition TTB to establish a grape-growing region as a viticultural area. The petition must include:
[sbull] Evidence that the proposed viticultural area is locally and/or nationally known by the name specified in the petition;
[sbull] Historical or current evidence that the boundaries of the proposed viticultural area are as specified in the petition;
[sbull] Evidence that the proposed area's growing conditions, such as climate, soils, elevation, physical features, etc., distinguish it from surrounding areas;
[sbull] A description of the proposed viticultural area's specific boundaries, based on features found on United States Geological Survey (USGS)-approved maps; and
[sbull] A copy of the appropriate USGS-approved map(s) with the boundaries prominently marked.
Impact on Current Wine Labels
With the establishment of this viticultural area, bottlers who use brand names like Seneca Lake may be affected. If you fall in this category, you must ensure that your existing products are eligible to use the name of the viticultural area as an appellation of origin. For a wine to be eligible, at least 85 percent of the grapes in the wine must have been grown within the viticultural area.
If the wine is not eligible for the appellation, you must change the brand name and obtain approval of a new label. Different rules apply if you label a wine in this category with a label approved prior to July 7, 1986. See 27 CFR 4.39(i) for details. Additionally, if you use the viticultural area name on a wine label in a context other than appellation of origin, the general prohibitions against misleading representation in part 4 of the regulations apply.
Effective January 24, 2003, the Homeland Security Act of 2002 divided the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearms (ATF) into two new agencies, the Alcohol and Tobacco Tax and Trade Bureau (TTB) in the Department of the Treasury and the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms, and Explosives in the Department of Justice. The regulation and taxation of alcohol beverages remains a function of the Department of the Treasury and is the responsibility of TTB. References to the former ATF and the new TTB in this document reflect the time frame, before or after January 24, 2003.
Seneca Lake Petition
ATF received a petition from Ms. Beverly Stamp of Lakewood Vineyards in Watkins Glen, New York, proposing to establish the ``Seneca Lake'' viticultural area. The petitioned area included portions of Schuyler, Yates, Ontario, and Seneca counties in upstate New York and covers approximately 204,600 acres of primarily rural agricultural and forestland. Of that total, 3,756 acres are planted to grapes. There are currently 33 wineries on or near Seneca Lake, one of New York's eleven Finger Lakes. The Cayuga Lake viticultural area lies to the east of the area, and both are entirely within the established Finger Lakes viticultural area.
Notice of Proposed Rulemaking
ATF published a notice of proposed rulemaking regarding the Seneca Lake viticultural area in the October 21, 2002, Federal Register as Notice No. 957 (67 FR 64575). In that notice, ATF requested comments by December 21, 2002, from
all interested persons concerning the establishment of this viticultural area. ATF received one comment regarding Notice No. 957 from Representative Amo Houghton of New York's 31st Congressional District. Representative Houghton supported the establishment of the Seneca Lake viticultural area and commented, ``It is the largest, most diverse community of wine producers in the Eastern United States. The twenty-one wineries along the shores of Seneca Lake offer individual and unique expressions from one of America's finest wine districts * * *. Carved by glaciers, and surrounded by vineyards since the mid 1800's--a Seneca Lake viticultural area has already been created through geologic and human history.'' Additionally, Representative Houghton mentioned benefits to the viticultural area's establishment. ``This unique area's recognition by the ATF would perfectly complement an existing regional framework of tourism, research and economic development, and promotion of the Seneca Lake identity and all that it represents. This would be of great benefit to consumers who seek products that allow them [to] capture, in a bottle, the essence of places and regions that enthrall them.''
What Evidence Was Provided To Show the Name ``Seneca Lake'' Is Locally or Nationally Known?
According to the petitioner, Seneca Lake was named after the Seneca people of the Iroquois Nation who lived along its shores hundreds of years ago. Many local places and geographic features are named after the Seneca people. These include, for example, Seneca Lake, Seneca County, the Seneca River, Seneca Castle, Seneca Army Depot, and Seneca Lake State Park. Additionally, the organization known as the Seneca Lake Winery Association includes many of the area's wineries.
To demonstrate that the area is locally and nationally known as ``Seneca Lake,'' the petitioner included several newspaper and magazine articles as evidence of the name's use. In an article from the Rochester, New York Democrat and Chronicle newspaper of November 15, 1999, entitled ``Your Land, Our Land: Finger Lakes in the Fast Lane,'' Ray Spencer, vice president of operations of Glenora Wine Cellars, stated that many ``already refer to Seneca Lake as `the Napa Valley of the East.' '' In the February 1997 issue of Wines & Vines, a California based magazine, author Philip Hiaring described his visit to the Seneca Lake region and his interviews with winery owners and winemakers.
In addition, Seneca Lake is mentioned in ``The Oxford Companion to the Wines of North America.'' The book states that Seneca Lake is surrounded by more than two-dozen wineries, is one of the two largest Finger Lakes, and is the deepest ``with the greatest heat storing capacity, offering the surrounding hillsides the strongest mesoclimatic benefit.'' While the lake's first winery was built in 1866, the book notes that the emergence of vinifera varieties resulted in an increase of winery openings in the 1980's that brought new momentum to the region's grape-growing industry.
What Boundary Evidence Was Provided?
The boundaries of the Seneca Lake viticultural area encompass about 204,600 acres of largely rural land surrounding Seneca Lake, the largest of upstate New York's eleven Finger Lakes. While some of the road names used in the boundary description do not appear on the submitted USGS maps, the petitioner provided the locally known names of these roads, as well as a more detailed map of the town of Watkins Glen indicating minor roads.
Using roads and streams, the petitioner drew the Seneca Lake viticultural area's boundaries to contain the vineyards influenced by the lake's climatic effect. In addition, the petitioner noted that distinct ridges divide Seneca Lake from its closest neighbor, Cayuga Lake, and the nearly 800-foot elevation change within the 7.5 miles between them gives the two lakes their own microclimates.
What Evidence Relating to Growing Conditions Was Provided?
The ``lake effect'' weather phenomenon makes the Seneca Lake viticultural area a ``unique and superb'' wine-growing region, according to the petitioner. The ``Oxford Companion to Wine'', published by the Oxford University Press, Inc., New York, describes lake effect as ``the year-round influence on vineyards from nearby large lakes which permits vine-growing in the northeast United States and Ontario in Canada despite their high latitude.''
The ``Oxford Companion'' also notes that the lake effect influence on grape vines changes with the seasons. It states that:
In the winter, the large lakes provide moisture to the prevailing westerly winds, which creates a deep snow cover, protecting vines from winter freeze even in very low temperatures. * * * In spring, the westerly winds blow across the frozen lake and become cooler. These cooler breezes blowing on the vines retard bud- break until the danger of frost has passed. In summer the lake warms up. By autumn/fall, the westerly winds are warmed as they blow across the lake. The warm breezes on the vines lengthen the growing season (balancing the late start to the growing season) by delaying the first frost.
The petitioner also provided an extract from Richard Figiel's book ``Culture in a Glass,'' that describes how the lake effect phenomenon affects the Finger Lakes region. Noting that both Seneca and Cayuga Lakes drop well below sea level, Figiel states that since the lakes are ``(n)arrow slices of water with relatively little surface area, they tend to maintain a stable temperature throughout the year.'' Figiel notes that the depth and heat storing capacity of the lakes act as a large radiator for the surrounding area during the winter months. ``Not only do the lakes take the edge off frigid upstate winters, often keeping vineyards 10-15[deg] warmer than locations just a half mile away,'' the book adds, ``but they also cushion the transitions of spring and fall.'' Figiel also points out that the ``(d)istinct microclimates along the hillsides rising from the lakeshores make it possible to reliably ripen grapes in a region that is generally too cold for viticulture * * *.''
The petitioner stated that it is the size and depth of Seneca Lake that gives the lake its ability to influence the local climate. Additionally, a report provided by the petitioner, entitled ``Viticultural Distinction of Seneca Lake in the New York Finger Lakes'', includes a physical description of Seneca Lake. The report states that, ``Seneca Lake is the largest of the Finger Lakes covering 67.7 square miles. The lake is 35.1 miles long and is an average of 1.9 miles wide with a shoreline of 75.4 miles. It has a volume of 4.2 trillion gallons with a maximum depth of 634 feet. At 150 feet, the water temperature remains at 39[deg]F (4[deg]C) year around. Above that level, the water temperature varies seasonally, but the surface temperature generally does not go below 39.5[deg]F (4[deg]C).'' While Seneca Lake chills down, the petition adds, it rarely freezes during the winter months. The petition also noted that the Seneca region has the longest frost-free period in the Finger Lakes, with a growing season of about 190 days. In contrast, neighboring Cayuga Lake's growing season is only 165 to 170 days long.
Seneca Lake's latent heat storage capacity alters the local climate to such an extent, the petition stated, that grapes can be grown in an area where they otherwise would not survive the cold temperatures of early spring, or the late autumn frosts. Together with the good
air drainage offered by the slopes leading to its shore, the lake's water temperature provides cool breezes in the spring, preventing early bud break in the fruit. In the fall, the lake's warmth delays early frosts, and in the winter it raises temperatures so that bud damage is lessened.
According to the petitioner, it is this ability to protect a crop from extreme temperatures during both the growing and dormant seasons that distinguishes the Seneca Lake viticultural area from the surrounding areas. This lake effect is strongest within about one-half mile of Seneca Lake. For this reason, the more tender vinifera varieties are planted within this zone, while hardier American varieties and hybrids can be planted higher on the slopes. The petitioner added that smaller lakes, even those the size of Cayuga Lake, do not have the same level of latent heat capacity and, therefore, do not modify the local climate to the same extent as Seneca Lake.

PM doesn't regret 'robust language'
Prime Minister Kevin Rudd says he is not going to apologise for an incident in which he swore.
News Limited papers have reported Mr Rudd used several expletives during a tense conversation with some of his backbenchers.
The MPs were unhappy with the Federal Government's decision to cut the printing allowance for politicians.
Mr Rudd says he does not regret his choice of words.
"It's fair to say that consistent with the traditions of the Australian Labor Party, we're given to robust conversations," he said.
"I made my view absolutely clear - that is that these entitlements needed to be cut back, and I make no apology for either the content of my conversation or the robustness with which I expressed my views."
Foreign Affairs Minister Stephen Smith played down the issue when speaking to Channel Nine.
"There's as much chance of the Prime Minister swearing as you or I have sworn from time to time in the past," he said.
"I wouldn't worry too much about that - all of us engage regrettably in that sort of language from time to time."


It was not all that long ago, this May, in fact, when Microsoft added a new feature for SkyDrive subscribers that allowed them the ability to view photos in their account based on their time and event.
Obviously, this feature currently only allows users to view all their SkyDrive photos, and there are no options currently to show specific photos from a particular folder.
The technology titan is now said to be preparing some interesting (and needed) improvements to the service. A new report indicates that folder filters for the browser version of the cloud service are currently in development.
LiveSide.net is carrying a story that claims that Microsoft is trying to make viewing and managing photos stored in the cloud easier for users. The technology titan is implementing what it is calling “folder filters” to provide quick access to images stored in a specific directory on SkyDrive.com.
Additionally, the company is said to be planning new customization options that allow users to configure a selected folder for timelines, along with picking up a directory as the default view for the “All photos” view mode in the browser.
Microsoft is yet to comment on these new improvements, and there is no word on exactly when the company will put up this new photo filter addition into SkyDrive.
But keeping in mind that LiveSide.net has a remarkable history of revealing upcoming SkyDrive features before they are revealed by Redmond, there is a fair chance that this new feature could be added in the next few weeks.

Now’s your likelihood to personal a particularly uncommon Pagani Zonda Revolcion. The automotive is certainly one of simply 5 constructed, and is being readied on the market by the corporate BH Public sale.
Unveiled in 2013, the Revolucion is a track-only model of the Zonda, and an evolution of the earlier Zonda R monitor automotive. It was additionally meant to be the final Zonda manufacturing mannequin, though Pagani has blurred that line considerably by continually rebuilding particular person chassis for purchasers. The Zonda was formally changed in 2011 by the Pagani Huayra, itself now coming to the top of its manufacturing run.
Energy is supplied by a Mercedes-Benz AMG-sourced 6.0-liter V-12, producing 800 hp and 538 lb-ft of torque. A carbon-titanium monocoque chassis and carbon-fiber bodywork retains the curb weight all the way down to 2,360 kilos, making this 800-hp supercar lighter than a Mazda MX-5 Miata.
Pagani Zonda Revolucion (Picture by BH Public sale)
The Revolucion additionally encompasses a 6-speed sequential gearbox, carbon-ceramic brakes, and elaborate aerodynamic parts that incorporate a System One-style Drag Discount System (DRS).
This specific automotive additionally has blue-tinted carbon-fiber physique panels, that means it is doubtless the automotive Pagani introduced to the 2014 Geneva International Motor Show, which was initially offered to a buyer in Japan. At the moment, the worth was estimated at round $three million.
The Revolucion wasn’t avenue authorized in inventory kind, however British agency Lanzante affords a conversion. Lanzante makes a speciality of these sorts of conversions, having beforehand constructed street-legal variations of the McLaren P1 GTR monitor automotive. At the least one of many 5 vehicles was converted for street use as of April 2021, reportedly for Russian tuning firm TopCar.


More changes have come to Community Welcome House, which serves local victims of domestic violence.
The organization is now known as the Coweta Domestic Violence Resource Center, and the house itself is up for sale.
A new website, cowetadomesticviolence.org , has recently become operational. The crisis line phone number remains the same – 770-304-0966.
In October 2016, it was announced that Community Welcome House would no longer serve as a shelter for domestic violence victims. Instead, the focus would be on providing services for domestic violence victims so that they can stay in their homes and in the community. There were always services provided to the women staying at Community Welcome House, and many of those services continued after the organization stopped functioning as a shelter for women and children.
Then-Executive Director Maureen Coates said last year that Community Welcome House had seen a decline in the number of women needing a shelter but an increase in the number who needed resources.
There was also a financial reason – operating the house cost approximately $30,000 a month, and there was no government funding. Coming up with that kind of money every month had long been a challenge.
Right now, the massive house serves as an office for one employee, and space for a food pantry and other storage, according to Sam Anders, chairman of the organization’s board of directors.
Anders said the eventual goal is to house the resource center and the organization’s thrift store, New Beginnings, in the same space – preferably in downtown Newnan. The thrift store’s current space on East Washington Street isn’t quite big enough for what the board envisions.
“We’re rebranding the Community Domestic Violence Resource Center,” Anders said. “The mission and goals of the organization are going to stay the same.”
“We’re looking at diversifying and being able to provide as many resources as possible for the community,” Anders said.
As a shelter, Community Welcome House always had to be hidden – the location was kept a secret. But now, the organization can have a more public face.
“People will be able to find us,” Anders said.
There could be computers for domestic violence victims to use, and offices and meeting areas.
“The idea is to meet the individual’s needs where they currently are,” Anders said. “We want to be able to provide more services rather than just somewhere to sleep at night. The goal of the organization at the end of the day is still providing resources to victims of domestic violence… that encompasses a lot of things.”
The Domestic Violence Resource Center operates the crisis hotline, 770-304-0966, which is answered 24/7.
Staff provides assistance and information for those who call in the crisis line.
“Then anything that comes from that crisis call, any kind of help that we can provide, then we do it that way,” Anders said.
It’s been an eventful few years for the organization, which was founded in 1991. In October 2014, it was announced that the house was closing for some needed repairs, with board members saying the work would take three to four months.
But the closure was about more than just repairs, though they were certainly a need. Finances, and operational changes, were also an issue. Community members and local businesses donated time, money and materials to help get the house ready.
After 10 months, the house reopened. But it was open for just 14 months before the decision was made to stop operating a shelter.

By mid July the Milk thistle flower has transformed into an impressive seed head.
This plant is a herb related to the daisy family. An extract from the milk thistle seeds can be used to treat diseases relating to the liver.
These thistles grow several feet tall and the spikes on the sepals surrounding the flower and on the leaves are razor sharp.
These poppies were growing on a grassy bank alongside the estuary at Bosham in Sussex providing a beautiful splash of colour. They are common poppies which grow in rough grassland, roadsides and farmland.
These tulips were in a pot in my garden. The colour is stunning and I just had to paint them.
Common Vetch is a member of the pea family which has 13000 species. It is found on grassland, farmland and waste ground. Bitter vetch was one of the first domesticated crops grown by Neolithic people and Common Vetch is still used as livestock fodder today.
This is a painting I started a year ago but never quite finished. I have now tidied it up and added a little bee to fill the gap in the left hand corner.
Hundreds of these amazing flowers were growing at West Dean gardens at the end of March. They are part of the lily family. The flower heads are complex to paint but worth the effort.
I have been painting some small illustrations of spring flowers to be mounted onto cards to be sold as original paintings which were very popular last years at craft fairs.

Moroccan Foreign Minister praises normalisation in Israeli TV interview amid criticism at home
Moroccan Foreign Minister Nasser Bourita has praised his country’s decision to normalise relations with Israel in an interview with the state-run Israeli TV channel Kan-11 on Friday.
Bourita said that Morocco’s King Mohammed VI had decided to establish diplomatic relations with Israel because he viewed relations with Jewish people generally, and Israel in particular, to be “very important”.
Bourita added that the Moroccan king maintained a “special relationship” with Israelis of Moroccan origin, saying that celebrations which had broken out in Israel after the Moroccan normalization announcement showed this.
The Moroccan foreign minister also said that his country would have “full” diplomatic relations with Israel and that these would be established quickly.
He told Kan 11 that flights between Morocco and Israel would be starting very soon and that Israeli liaison offices in Rabat, which were closed in 2000 amid Israel’s brutal suppression of the second Palestinian intifada, would reopen.
Bourita said that Moroccan political forces had “responded positively” to the normalisation of relations with Israel.
However, on Friday the youth wing of Morocco’s ruling Justice and Development Party condemned the government’s decision to normalise ties with Israel, saying that “the issue of Palestine is an integral part of the conscience and struggle of the entire Moroccan people”.
The Moroccan National Action Group for Palestine also denounced the government’s decision, saying that it “deviated from the position of the Moroccan nation, which rejects normalization, the marginalization of the Palestinian issue, and the Deal of the Century”.
Moroccan religious leaders have also spoken out against the deal.
Morocco announced on Thursday that it would normalise ties with Israel after the administration of outgoing US President Donald Trump said it would recognise Morocco’s sovereignty over the disputed Western Sahara region.
Bourita told Kan-11 that he did not expect US President-elect Joe Biden to rescind Trump’s decision.
In earlier comments, he denied that US recognition of Morocco’s control over Western Sahara was a reward for Morocco normalizing ties with Israel.
Although Morocco and Israel did not have formal diplomatic ties before Thursday’s announcement, informal relations have existed for decades.
Israeli experts are believed to have helped Morocco build the heavily fortified, 2,700 kilometre ‘berm’ sand wall in Western Sahara in the 1980s, which was designed to keep guerrilla fighters from the pro-independence Polisario movement out of Moroccan-controlled territory.

When we ask the question of “where” you are building your log home, we are actually asking 2 different questions.
First, where are you building your future dream home?
One of most interesting parts of doing what we do is seeing where people are building their home! We have built homes in all sorts of landscapes. As you know, for people who build a log cabin, the landscape is just as important as the home!
Are you a winter person? Are you building where it gets cold and snowy? Do you love skiing, warm fireplaces, hot chocolate, and just the overall beauty of winter?
Is your future home in a remote location – getting away from the daily noise?
Do you picture yourself looking at a beautiful and peaceful view?
Is being surrounded by trees something you’ve always dreamed of?
Having a home on a lake. Speaks for itself!
Is your log home your primary residence? Maybe out of town, but not far from city life?
Our next “where” question: (although it’s the exact same question, you’ll see the different meaning)
Where are you building your future dream home?
Are you building in Canada? Eastern or Western? Do you plan on building in the northern part to enjoy lake life, fishing (and pretty much everything else)?
Are you in the United States? California or Florida beaches? New York or Vermont where it gets nice and cold? Midwest in Oklahoma or Kansas? Further south, like Texas?
Are you in France? Are you in Mexico? Are you in the Caribbean?
The point is, no matter where you are building your insulated log home…..you can build a Timber Block. We literally can ship anywhere in the world. And we have.
Timber Block has events going on all the time. From wall raisings (see one of our homes go up in just hours!) to open houses (at our model home locations) to Grand Openings (new model homes are built all the time!) to shows, webinars and so much more.

Auto-rickshaw strike put on hold
Bhubaneswar: The All Odisha Auto Chalaka Mahasangha put its state-wide 12-hour strike on hold on Thursday after a discussion with Transport Minister Ramesh Majhi here.
The Mahasangha postponed the agitation after getting an assurance from the Transport Minister that the department’s technical committee will look into their four demands, said sources.
The association was on strike opposing app-based auto services in the state.
Besides, they wanted insurance for auto drivers and areas specified for parking so that the traffic police do not heckle the drivers, the sources added.
If the demands are not met in a month or two, the association will decide on its next course of action, the sources stated.
Meanwhile, Commissionerate Police arrested four persons for their involvement in damaging vehicles during the auto association strike in Bhubaneswar.
Earlier in the day, members of the association were seen damaging vehicles, puncturing the tyres of two-wheelers and four-wheelers plying on the roads during the strike.


5 Fastest Nations to Adopt Facial Recognition and AI
No longer relegated to science fiction movies and novels, facial recognition is being applied in numerous vertical markets and use cases.
The global market for facial recognition cameras and software will be worth an estimated $7.8 billion, predicts Markets and Markets. No longer relegated to science fiction movies and novels, the technology is being applied in numerous vertical markets, from helping banks identify customers to enabling governments to identify criminals.
Abishur Prakash, a geopolitical futurist and author, examined the top five countries where facial recognition cameras and algorithms are taking off the fastest for a recent article in Robotics Business Review. Following is an abridged look at his report, which includes examples of use cases from each country.
China leads the world in deploying facial recognition. It has 170 million video surveillance cameras, with another 400 million expected in the next three years. Many of these cameras have artificial intelligence (AI) and facial recognition. In 2017, China filed for more than 900 facial recognition patents, compared with the 96 patents filed in the U.S.
Police in Nanchang used facial recognition cameras to identify a criminal alongside 50,000 other concertgoers. Meanwhile, in a railway station in Hanan province, police officers are using smart glasses with facial recognition to catch criminals.
Facial recognition is also automating police work. If people jaywalk in Shenzhen, facial recognition could catch them and display their faces and names on an LED billboard to “name and shame” them. They are also sent a text with their fines.
UNITED ARAB EMIRATES
The United Arab Emirates (UAE) is a global leader in the adoption of new technologies, and facial recognition is no exception.
For instance, the UAE is testing AI for border control. At the Dubai Airport, a virtual aquarium is fitted with 80 facial recognition cameras that scan people as they walk through the aquarium. The system then either clears them for entry into the country or alerts security personnel.
Related to this is a plan to automate immigration officers in the UAE by 2020 by using AI and facial recognition to decide who can enter the country.
The UAE is also looking to facial recognition to improve safety. In preparation for Expo 2020, police in Dubai will deploy tens of thousands of facial recognition cameras to identify criminals as part of a project called “Oyoon.”
But these cameras won’t just capture and analyze footage. They will also send out “verbal warnings” to people to stop them from doing something.
Like China, Japan is deploying facial recognition across the board.
For the 2020 Tokyo Olympics, facial recognition cameras will be used to allow athletes and media to enter venues. About 300,000 to 400,000 people will have their faces approved. The goal is to boost security by not relying on ID cards, which can be forged or duplicated.
Sleepy workers could be jolted into awareness in future offices, thanks to a test of facial recognition cameras and surveillance. If workers are caught sleeping on the job, they could be blasted with cold air.
Japanese airports are another venue for facial recognition. Japan’s Ministry of Justice plan to deploy the technology to all major airports next year. It will scan foreigners before they leave Japan, speeding departures, and allow airports to send more staffers to the arrivals part of the airport.
Unlike other countries, Japan is applying facial recognition to address societal challenges, like gambling addiction. Japanese casinos are exploring advanced facial recognition cameras that can tell how many times a person has entered a casino.
Singapore is often described as the high-tech capital of Asia. And this image is being bolstered by the use of facial recognition in creative ways.
For example, the Singaporean government is leading a project called Lamppost-as-a-Platform (LaaP). Through LaaP, all 110,000 lampposts in Singapore will be fitted with cameras connected to facial recognition software. The government said it wants to use LaaP to improve security and reduce terrorism.
One of the companies bidding is Yitu Technology, a Chinese firm that also supplied facial recognition cameras to a police force in Malaysia. Singapore is also looking at using facial recognition to find elderly people who are lost in the city, something which is already active in China.
Meanwhile Singapore’s Changi Airport is testing facial recognition cameras to spot travelers who are late or lost. Already Changi Airport’s T4 terminal is using facial recognition to allow passengers to check in on their own, including immigration and boarding.
While the U.S. has the potential to deploy facial recognition at the same scale as China, adoption of the technology has been slow. However, things may be changing now. As of 2016, almost 50% of all adults in the U.S. were in facial recognition databases operated by police stations.
American airports are increasingly turning to facial recognition. The U.S. Customs and Border Protection agency has been experimenting with facial recognition cameras at 13 airports.
Following the experiment, Orlando International Airport was selected as the first airport in the country to use facial recognition to scan all international visitors. It takes less than 2 seconds to analyze a face and the system has 99% accuracy.
At the same time, a program called “Biometric Exit,” which tracks people with visas leaving the U.S. through facial recognition could be deployed at airports across the country. The federal government is also planning to use facial recognition at border crossings with Mexico to scan people and vehicles.

Alisha & James's Romantic Cliff Top Dunnottar Castle Elopement Wedding
Dunnottar Castle Wedding – As a wedding photographer who travels all around the breath-taking Scottish Highlands not just to photograph weddings and elopements, but also for pleasure, the ancient fortress of Dunnottar Castle in Stonehaven, Aberdeenshire on the east coast of Scotland, has long been on my wish list as a wedding photography location. An Iconic Scottish Castle and an Instagram favourite, with its haunting clifftop setting on a jutting protrusion, it makes for a magical and wildly romantic backdrop for exchanging wedding vows and is both a wedding and non-wedding photographer’s paradise!.
To say I was delighted when Scottish wedding planner Sara, from Weddings by Sara Jane, contacted me to ask if I was available to photograph Alisha And James’s, Dunnottar Castle wedding for two last year, would be an understatement. At just over a two-hour drive from Scotland’s biggest cities, Glasgow and Edinburgh and just thirty minutes from Scotland’s third-biggest, thriving and cosmopolitan Aberdeen, Dunnottar’s wild and remote seeming Scottish Highland location is very accessible and easy to travel to.
The Wedding Day
I met lovely James and Alisha to begin their elopement wedding photography coverage on the cliff tops next to the castle, the skirl of traditional Scottish bagpipe accompanied Alisha’s approach to the setting of the vow exchange, where James was waiting. A beautiful traditional Scottish handfast ritual completed their vows as a local registrar conducted the romantic ceremony. With Alisha and James officially betrothed we then made our way to the castle itself, making the most of the ancient walls for the wedding photography, taking a quiet moment to look out to the expansive North Sea beyond the castle walls.
To complete the wedding day we then returned to Alisha and James’s hotel, Banochry Lodge on the banks of the River Dee. With its lush surrounding, I shot my final photographs then left Alisha and James to enjoy the rest of their wedding day together.
If you are feeling inspired by Alisha and James’s romantic elopement wedding in Scotland and would like to find out more about the legalities of getting married in Aberdeenshire the local registry office has the information you need. The Visit Aberdeenshire site also has loads of information about the local area and its many attractions.

Lola, the celebrated debut feature of Jacques Demy – much lesser discoursed vis-à-vis his Nouvelle Vague compatriots, perhaps on account of ostensibly being least radical of the lot – is a wistful and evocative work that was memorably anachronistic in a decade marked by an explosion of formal and thematic audacity. This was, after all, the year of Antonioni’s La Notte, Bergman’s Through A Glass Darkly, Bunuel’s Viridiana, Imamura’s Pigs and Battleships, Resnais’s Last Year at Marienbad, etc.; hence this, with its muted delicacy, poetic realism and straight-up storytelling, might appear almost conventional in their midst. It nevertheless had a curious mix of tonal variances and stylistic choices – viz/., on one hand, the strikingly moody B/W photography by Raoul Coutard, infusion of jazz riffs and the immediacy of on-location shoots; while, on the other, overt sentimentality and a narrative almost exclusively propelled by coincidences. The film is set in Nantes where, over the course of a couple of days, we meet a series of intersecting characters who’re all dreaming of love and an elusive happiness in their dreary existences. Its two central characters are Lola (Anouk Aimée), a lovelorn cabaret dancer and single mother who’s still waiting for her fiancé who’d left her 7 years back; and Roland (Marc Michel), a young guy laced with ennui and aimlessness who decides to take a shady job, until he suddenly bumps into Lola who he’s silent held a torch for many years. Throw in a mournful American sailor, a 13-year old girl who keeps crossing paths with both guys, and her pensive mother, and what you have is a movie with a plot ridden with contrivances but also possessing moments of quiet melancholy.
Director: Jacques Demy
Genre: Drama/Urban Drama/Romantic Drama
