La Industria is a discipleship school with a strong emphasis on art, music, community and revival.
La Industria carries out a 9-month program designed for young people ages 18 to 25 and are looking for a hands-on practical ministry and training in art and music.
Discipleship & Creative Residential Course
We offer a program packed with opportunities to learn more about God from a variety of teachers and settings, and to grow closer to Him, allowing His truth to impact and bring lasting change. Alongside the spiritual curriculum, students dedicate 9 months to develop their musical or artistic skills through classes, team work, and many performances (mainly youth events and high school outreach programs). We love to watch the transformation in the students as they go through the program. God does amazing things, He is so good!!!
Youth Summer Camps
During the summer La Industria holds a 10 day art and music camp for youth ages 15-21, and a 6 day one for ages 12-14. Year after year we see God doing great deep work in young people’s lives during the camps.
As part of the 9 month program, the students put together a couple of productions, where they apply their artistic or musical skills as they serve and encourage others. Local churches from all over Spain invite us to go to their cities where we do a show in high schools and we do a lively youth event which usually includes music and ministry. We love to see God using our students to impact the lives of other youth in Spain!
Here is some feedback from La Industria’s students. This is what they had to say:
“These nine months have been a complete transformation for me. I have come to have a true intimacy with God, something I have never experienced.”
“God has restored my perspective on relationships. Before I couldn’t stand being with people for very long, but I’ve come to understand that God has had to prune me in this area…”
“God has changed my character, the way I see life, my priorities, my values, my thoughts, even the way I speak!”

The numbers don’t lie: horror is a well-liked style it doesn’t matter what time of 12 months it’s.
In September 2019, “It Chapter Two” (based mostly on Stephen King’s well-known e-book a few city terrorized by a demon) grossed $473 million on the field workplace, according to ScreenRant. In March of the identical 12 months, “Us” (a few household who should combat off their evil doppelgangers) earned $255.1 million in theaters.
Horror lovers are a loyal crowd, too. According to a 2018 article from Variety, 44% of paranormal horror followers and 56% of scifi horror followers go to the flicks greater than 12 instances a 12 months, whereas on common, horror lovers spend extra on the field workplace every month regardless that their common admission per go to is much less.
The horror style craze goes past motion pictures. Bookstores and libraries function cabinets stuffed with scary tales. Each Halloween, folks line up for reside haunted sights comparable to Concern Manufacturing facility in Salt Lake Metropolis and Citadel of Chaos in Midvale.
All of it begs the query: Why achieve this many individuals get pleasure from being scared?
A number of causes for searching for concern
In the event you ask Kevin John, it’s tough to pin down a single cause that folks search out terrifying experiences.
John is the Director of the BioComms Lab at Brigham Younger College, which makes use of physiology to review media consumption patterns. As an example, he mentioned strategies like eye monitoring and facial recognition may help researchers acknowledge what an individual could also be feeling however not verbalizing.
The BioComms Lab has accomplished a number of small research on concern, John mentioned, together with one he’s at present engaged on with one other school member about why folks devour horror-based media.
Thus far, he mentioned, they’re discovering that some folks benefit from the thrill of violence whereas some just like the sense of thriller. Others benefit from the reduction that comes when the story is over, he mentioned.
Shane Bench, a social psychologist and an assistant professor at Utah State College, agreed there’s not one particular cause that folks get pleasure from scary experiences.
Bench mentioned his analysis specializes within the perform of detrimental feelings, together with why these feelings exist and in the event that they’re ever helpful.
One cause folks may get pleasure from detrimental feelings comparable to concern, he mentioned, is that they supply a excessive arousal expertise, comparable to an elevated coronary heart price.
“Physiologically, [fear] prompts the physique, which at instances generally is a fascinating expertise,” he mentioned.
One more reason Bench mentioned folks may search out detrimental feelings is for the novelty of them. As an example, somebody who’s bored — notably somebody who’s bored of being in a constructive state — is extra doubtless to decide on experiences that lead to detrimental feelings, he mentioned.
Bench added that Halloween might immediate this response in some folks, for the reason that vacation makes horror media extra accessible and “so it’s time to have one thing new.”
Lastly, some folks merely like being scared, he mentioned.
“The preferred expertise on common is happiness,” Bench mentioned. “However there’s a variability in what folks want to expertise, with some folks preferring to expertise states like concern and disappointment greater than different folks.”
A secure strategy to be scared
Science might by no means totally clarify society’s love of chills and thrills, but it surely’s not tough for some horror film aficionados to pinpoint precisely why they return to the horror style repeatedly.
Adam Mast is a competition director with St. George’s HorrorFest Worldwide (a part of the Movie and Media Alliance of Southern Utah) that every October options a wide range of unique horror motion pictures and shorts from filmmakers everywhere in the world. (This 12 months’s occasion ended on Oct. 23.)
Mast mentioned he watches horror motion pictures for a similar cause he rides curler coasters: it’s a secure strategy to expertise terror.
“You possibly can search solace in horror,” he mentioned. “It’s a security internet… understanding you’re simply watching a film.”
There’s additionally a cathartic ingredient to horror motion pictures, he mentioned, as they’ll embody themes like grief, guilt and dysfunctional relationships.
Tori Baker, president and CEO of the Salt Lake Movie Society, added that the horror style exploits the fears folks have about humanity, society and their very own psychological well-being.
Horror motion pictures are “an effective way to discover these fears, as we all know the film will finish,” she mentioned. “Our fight-or-flight response whereas viewing a horror movie can have us on the sting of our seat, however then comes the massive, cathartic launch when the film ends and the lights come up.”
She additionally mentioned that horror motion pictures usually invoke present points and anxieties.
For instance, HBO’s “Lovecraft Nation” (that includes a younger Black man within the Fifties who faces monsters from author H.P. Lovecraft’s tales) and “Candyman” (in regards to the vengeful spirit of a Black man who was unjustly killed by police) each “boldly discover race and racism,” she mentioned. “The style will mirror what we’re experiencing as a result of the artists behind these works have vital issues to say, touch upon or discover.”
Do horror motion pictures promote violence?
Whereas horror motion pictures can inform compelling tales and mirror present occasions, some might fear that the recognition of a style which regularly options blood and gore has given rise to larger real-life violence.
However Mast mentioned he feels that is an unfair oversimplification.
Whereas artwork can have an effect on folks in numerous methods, notably when psychological well being comes into play, “I don’t watch ‘Silence of the Lambs’ after which really feel compelled to exit and pores and skin any person,” he mentioned. “I hate when a movie or any sort of artwork is used as a scapegoat.”
John mentioned when folks routinely expose themselves to horror media, it may well’t assist however influence them, notably amongst individuals who have already got psychopathic tendencies comparable to decreased empathy.
Nonetheless, “I’m not saying that you just’re going to have a scenario the place any person is triggered [by horror media],” John mentioned. “If violent content material led on to violent actions, then our society could be much more violent than it truly is.”
Moderately, media results analysis is messy, he mentioned, and it’s vital to contemplate the nuances of particular person content material viewers.
Advantages of concern
Some really feel that scary experiences may even have good outcomes. Heidi Dunfield, co-owner of Concern Manufacturing facility, mentioned probably the most constructive influence of concern, which she sees “each day” through the Halloween season, is bonding between family and friends.
She’s additionally observed that folks usually like the sensation of getting persevered by way of a scary expertise, she mentioned.
“I’ll undergo and have a look at the hashtags on social media,” Dunfield mentioned. “I see folks saying ‘We made it out!’ and simply hugging one another.”
Bench added that in actual life, detrimental feelings like concern “completely have a perform and a goal and at instances are good to expertise.”
As an example, he mentioned if he got here throughout an offended bear whereas mountain climbing and wasn’t scared, he may find yourself significantly harmed.
To that finish, scary tales can typically function classes on what to not do or what to keep away from, Bench mentioned.
John’s BioComms Lab has come to the same conclusion. In a single research, he mentioned they discovered that individuals who had been proven photos of ultraviolet injury to their pores and skin grew to become motivated by the concern of pores and skin most cancers to make use of sunscreen extra usually.
Concern can be harnessed to beat phobias, John mentioned. For instance, he cited a digital actuality sport the place folks with arachnophobia undergo totally different ranges. Within the first degree, they merely see a spider in a glass jar. The degrees progress from a number of spiders within the jar to spiders outdoors of the jar to spiders crawling on their palms.
Nonetheless, although concern isn’t at all times a detrimental factor, John mentioned it may well trigger folks to close down if used incorrectly.
“It’s really easy to get uncovered to all sorts of visuals, some that we wish and a few that we don’t,” he mentioned.
That mentioned, good artwork typically makes folks really feel uncomfortable, John added, which is why it’s vital for folks to concentrate on their very own consolation ranges.
“I’m a fan of individuals being in-tune with what they really feel drives them and [knowing] what advantages that they’re getting out of the media that they’re utilizing,” he mentioned. “As a result of finally, we’re nonetheless accountable for what we select to observe.”

The new critical care unit on the 15th floor of The Royal London Hospital has reopened to patients this week.
The state-of-the-art facility is dedicated to the care of Covid-19 patients and is crucial to the plans we are developing with our healthcare partners from across north east London.
We are today publishing Our plans for winter, which sets out how we plan to manage enhanced seasonal pressures while maintaining access to planned services like cancer, diagnostics and elective surgery.
The bespoke 15th floor space at The Royal London was built during the first peak and will allow us to treat Covid-19 positive patients without having to expand into other clinical areas and will allow us to maintain other services.
Our plans incorporate what we learned from the first peak and working closely with our partners across North East London (NEL). The approach will pool local NHS resources in four key areas; emergency care, critical care, planned care and community care.
Alwen William, Group Chief Executive, said: “The impact of coronavirus is already unprecedented. The NHS now faces another unique challenge with a resurgence of Covid-19 cases - just as we are restoring planned care to previous levels, and as the usual seasonal pressures begin to bite.
“Our staff responded incredibly well to the first peak, and we have learned lessons from our experience. We are therefore better prepared to meet this next challenge. We are hoping for the best, but preparing for the worst. We don’t know exactly how events will turn out in the end.
“Nevertheless, I am confident our committed and talented staff will do their utmost to keep patients safe. Together we will continue to improve health outcomes for our patients and provide equitable care to our diverse communities throughout this coming winter.”
The plan also outlines the five stages of escalating pressure we’ve identified, as well as what we have in place to make sure staff are looked after and supported to care for our patients, and how we will work with our local communities.
It remains safe for all patients to attend our hospitals and access the care they need.

Did anyone really think that this high pitched monster of cinema and Star Wars could get any worse ?
It could have, it could have been alot worse.
Reports have now revealed that the king of pop himself, Micheal Jackson petitioned to play the role to George Lucas. In what may possibly may have done what no one thought could be done, make both The Phantom Menace and Jar Jar Binks even worse.
During an interview with Vice, Ahmed Best, the infamous actor who portrayed Jar Jar in two out of the three prequels, stated that he was told that he was competing against Micheal Jackson for the role. It was only known to Best that he had gotten the role at a Micheal Jackson concert in which George Lucas, Best, Natalie Portman and Lucas's children were attending. Best stated that he was introduced to Jackson as Jar Jar , when Best asked Lucas why he had introduced him as Jar Jar Lucas revealed that Best had earned the role.
Lucas said that Jackson wanted to play the role with prosthetic and makeup, something that Lucas was opposed to, evident in just one shot of the prequels.
In the end, who would have ever thought that Lucas's love for CGI made Jar jar not as bad as he could have been.
All in all, Jar Jar is still terrible much like the films he is featured in.

Hi and welcome,
Subjective means you feel weak, but there is no loss of strength, objective means there is a loss of strength that can be noted during a physical exam....
IF i understand you correctly, you are saying even though you feel weakness in your left leg and right arm, your neurological clinical signs were 'not' abnormal hence why the weakness is 'subjective'......add to your picture the addition of also having normal brain and spinal MRI's, your actually saying you don't have any diagnostic evidence that would be suggestive or consistent with your symptoms being caused by a neurological condition.
When diagnostic evidence is pointing away from neurological causation, then realistically the non neurological alternative medical explanations become a lot higher on the list of potential explanations....
Q: Is it typical to have weakness in right arm and left leg?
A: In MS it's not typical for the symptom of weakness to be subjective, MS symptoms are caused by brain and or spinal cord lesions which typically leave behind abnormal and measurable clinical signs (objective).
MS would typically present with neurological symptoms down one side of the body......what you are experiencing whilst being subjective, is also on the left and right sides of the body, one upper and one lower limb on opposite sides of the body isn't typical of neurological conditions as far as i understand, because that symptom pattern wouldn't follow basic neural pathways.
i would suggest you consult you family doctor and ask if there isn't the evidence of a neurological abnormality, what else could it be?
Keep in mind that if you are experiencing high levels of anxiety, mental health is a legitimate causation of subjective symptoms, one possible causation you may need to get ruled in or out too, it might be worth considering getting a mental health assessment if you think it might be of benefit to you going through all this, btw it usually is beneficial to get additional support when the issue is medically unknown, so please don't dismiss getting a mental health assessment without considering the short and long term benefits to you....
Hope that helps......JJ

Precision in language makes life easier for everyone. Problems can be solved, or at least addressed calmly, when everyone knows what everyone else is actually talking about. Sure someone will be angry, and another appalled, but this time, if each speaker is precise, about what is actually there, not what they imagine, things will be fine. And that’s not how politics work.
George Orwell knew this. George Orwell wrote this:
When one watches some tired hack on the platform mechanically repeating the familiar phrases – bestial, atrocities, iron heel, bloodstained tyranny, free peoples of the world, stand shoulder to shoulder – one often has a curious feeling that one is not watching a live human being but some kind of dummy: a feeling which suddenly becomes stronger at moments when the light catches the speaker’s spectacles and turns them into blank discs which seem to have no eyes behind them.
And this is not altogether fanciful. A speaker who uses that kind of phraseology has gone some distance toward turning himself into a machine. The appropriate noises are coming out of his larynx, but his brain is not involved, as it would be if he were choosing his words for himself. If the speech he is making is one that he is accustomed to make over and over again, he may be almost unconscious of what he is saying, as one is when one utters the responses in church.
And this reduced state of consciousness, if not indispensable, is at any rate favorable to political conformity.
In this case, the speaker’s language was not precise. Consider that tribal chanting. That is what it is:
Political language – and with variations this is true of all political parties, from Conservatives to Anarchists – is designed to make lies sound truthful and murder respectable, and to give an appearance of solidity to pure wind.
That may be the whole point. Henry Kissinger once said that successful diplomacy depends on “purposeful ambiguity” – don’t pin things down too hard so everyone saves face. That may be true, but Orwell saw that as destructive. That’s what his 1946 essay Politics and the English Language was all about. That was illustrated three years later in Nineteen Eighty-Four – this is what will happen in real life if this goes on much longer.
Some politicians, however, still aim for precision, confusing everyone. Jim Webb, a Democrat from Virginia, who served in the Senate from 2007 to 2013 and was Secretary of the Navy under Reagan from 1987 to 1988, is one of those people. And he’s more than a decorated former Marine Corps officer:
In the private sector he has been an Emmy Award winning journalist, a filmmaker, and the author of ten books. In addition, he taught literature at the United States Naval Academy and was a Fellow at the Harvard Institute of Politics. As a member of the Democratic Party, Webb announced on November 19, 2014, that he was forming an exploratory committee to evaluate a run for President of the United States in 2016. On July 2, 2015, he announced that he would be joining the race for the Democratic nomination for president, but stepped down from running in the primaries on October 20, 2015, stating that he was “not comfortable” and “unhappy” with many of the party’s political positions.
He was fine with their economic and social policies, but on foreign policy he had to split with the Democrats and walk away. His most famous novel was his 1978 Fields of Fire – and he wrote the story, and was the executive producer, for the 2000 film Rules of Engagement – Tommy Lee Jones and Samuel L. Jackson in and at war. But no one knew what to make of Webb himself. He had been a senior Marine Corps officer. He was precise in everything he did, and in everything he said. In the Marine Corps, ambiguity kills.
That’s why Webb is now saying this:
Strongly held views are unlikely to change regarding the morality and tactical wisdom of President Trump’s decision to kill Iranian Maj. Gen. Qasem Soleimani as he traveled on a road outside the Baghdad airport after having arrived on a commercial flight. But the debate regarding the long-term impact of this act on America’s place in the world, and the potential vulnerability of U.S. government officials to similar reprisals, has just begun.
How did it become acceptable to assassinate one of the top military officers of a country with which we are not formally at war during a public visit to a third country that had no opposition to his presence? And what precedent has this assassination established on the acceptable conduct of nation-states toward military leaders of countries with which we might have strong disagreement short of actual war – or for their future actions toward our own people?
Ambiguity kills, after all, but this has been going on for quite a while:
In 2007, the Senate passed a non-binding resolution calling on the George W. Bush administration to categorize Iran’s Revolutionary Guard Corps as an international terrorist organization. I opposed this proposal based on the irrefutable fact that the organization was an inseparable arm of the Iranian government. The Revolutionary Guards are not independent actors like al-Qaeda and the Islamic State. They are part of the Iranian government’s formal military structure, with an estimated strength of more than 150,000 members. It is legally and logically impossible to define one part of a national government as an international terrorist organization without applying the term to that entire government.
Definitions define conduct. If terrorist organizations are actively involved against us, we attack them. But a terrorist organization is by definition a nongovernmental entity that operates along the creases of national sovereignties and international law. The Revolutionary Guards are a part of the Iranian government. If they are attacking us, they are not a terrorist organization. They’re an attacking army.
The 2007 proposal did not succeed. But last April the State Department unilaterally designated the Revolutionary Guard Corps as a foreign terrorist entity. Although more than 60 organizations are listed in this category, this is the only time our government has ever identified an element of a nation-state as a terrorist organization. And the designation was by many accounts made despite the opposition of the CIA and the Defense Department.
A bad idea, previously rejected, was put in operation, but precision matters:
The assassination of the most well-known military commander of a country with which we are not formally at war during his visit to a third country that had not opposed his presence invites a lax moral justification for a plethora of retaliatory measures – and not only from Iran. It also holds the possibility of more deeply entrenching the U.S. military in a region that most Americans would very much prefer to deal with from a more maneuverable distance.
No thinking American would support Soleimani’s conduct. But it is also indisputable that his activities were carried out as part of his military duties. His harm to American military units was through his role as an enabler and adviser to third-country forces…
Now, despite Trump’s previous assertions that he wants to dramatically reduce the United States’ footprint in the Middle East, it seems clear that he has been seduced into making unwise announcements similar to the rhetoric used by his immediate predecessors of both parties. Their blunders – in Iraq, Libya and Syria – destabilized the region and distracted the United States from its greatest long-term challenge: China’s military and economic expansion throughout the world.
Some may disagree with Webb on the threat posed by China, but here, Trump started a war with another sovereign nation. Calling the guy a terrorist makes Trump and a lot of Americans feel good, but the sugar-high of the actual kill will fade fast when someone takes out Mike Pompeo. So this has to stop:
At a time when our political debates have come to resemble Kardashian-like ego squabbles, the United States desperately needs common-sense leadership in its foreign policy… If partisanship in foreign policy should end at the water’s edge, then such policies should be forged through respectful, bipartisan debate.
The first such debate should focus on the administration’s unilateral decision to label an entire element of a foreign government an international terrorist organization. If Congress wishes to hold Iran to such a standard, it should then formally authorize the use of force against Iran’s government.
Otherwise this is just giving an appearance of solidity to pure wind. What are we talking about? That’s always the question, and Paul Waldman sees this:
Perhaps it’s no surprise that the possibility of yet another war in the Middle East has brought out the worst in so many conservative supporters of President Trump. But even if that prospect seems to have been put off for now, it’s likely that the ugly impulses that have surfaced will emerge again and again as we approach the elections in November. Democrats should decide now how they want to respond.
And here’s the problem that Waldman sees:
Rep. Douglas A. Collins said that Democrats are “in love with terrorists, we see that they mourn Soleimani more than they mourn our Gold Star families.” I have a vague memory of a presidential candidate attacking a Gold Star family in 2016; can’t quite recall who that was.
“The only ones that are mourning the loss of Soleimani are our Democrat leadership,” said former U.N. ambassador and future presidential candidate Nikki Haley. After it was pointed out to her that literally zero Democrats were mourning Soleimani’s death, she argued that “mourning” means wishing he were still alive and anyone who criticized the decision to kill him wishes he were still alive and is therefore “mourning” him. That, of course, is not what “mourning” means.
When Rep. Pramila Jayapal said the administration had presented no evidence of an “imminent threat” that necessitated Soleimani’s assassination, Rep. John Rutherford of Florida responded by saying, “You and your squad of Ayatollah sympathizers are spreading propaganda that divides our nation and strengthens our enemies.”
White House adviser Kellyanne Conway said, “The alarmists and apologists show skepticism about our own intelligence and sympathy for Soleimani.”
Rep. Mark Meadows of North Carolina tweeted that “the vast majority” agrees with the killing, while “Democrats are falling all over themselves equivocating about a terrorist.”
And there it is, but it’s not selling:
Republicans are quite certain not only that the American public shares their belief that the Soleimani assassination was the right thing to do, but that anyone who disagrees must love terrorists.
There will be much more polling in coming days, but as it happens, the first poll out from USA Today finds that 55 percent of the public say the killing of Soleimani and its aftermath made the United States less safe, with only 24 percent saying it made us more safe.
That was clear:
There was overwhelming agreement – in each case by more than 6-1 – that the attack made it more likely Iran would strike American interests in the Middle East (69%), that there would be terrorist attacks on the American homeland (63%), and that the United States and Iran would go to war with each other (62%).
By 52%-8%, those polled said the attack made it more likely that Iran would develop nuclear weapons.
Waldman adds this:
America, it seems, is a nation of Ayatollah-sympathizing, terrorist-loving Soleimani-mourners. Or maybe most people just don’t buy the proposition that unless you support every decision Donald Trump makes you’re a traitor.
That should sound familiar:
Going all the way back to the Alien and Sedition Acts, advocates for war have accused those who don’t share their enthusiasm of being traitors. More recently, the September 11 attacks were followed by endless accusations from Republicans that any Democrat who failed to support whatever the Bush administration wanted to do was supporting al-Qaeda, and later, Saddam Hussein. As George W. Bush himself said, “Either you are with us, or you are with the terrorists.”
The difference now is that Democrats don’t appear particularly frightened of that charge.
But how should they respond to the specific accusation that if they disagree with Trump, they love terrorists?
That sort of thing can be tricky:
In the past, they’ve responded by trying to show they can be tough. That’s why so many Democratic leaders voted for the Iraq War, at a time when memories of 9/11 were still fresh and nearly two-thirds of the public supported the war.
But now they have an opportunity. While Republican rhetoric may be the same, the public is on the side of Democrats and against a deeply unpopular president. So instead of whimpering in fear and trying to change the subject, they can actually call attention to the execrable charge and make Republicans the issue.
For instance, a presidential candidate could say:
“I refuse to allow you to say that the majority of Americans who question President Trump’s erratic decision-making are terrorist sympathizers. And when I’m president, I’ll treat Americans with respect for a change. When Republicans disagree with me, I’ll explain why I think they’re wrong, but I won’t call them traitors. I think we’ve all had enough of that kind of poisonous politics.”
But will any Democratic candidate say that? Waldman thinks someone should say that, because that’s good politics:
This is about what kind of rhetoric is going to be tolerated and what should be condemned. This is the perfect opportunity to get Republicans on the defensive for their hatefulness.
And it isn’t going anywhere, no matter happens with Iran. As we get closer to the election and the possibility of Democratic victory becomes real, Republicans will get more extreme in their words. Their predictions of cataclysm (the governor of Mississippi, Phil Bryant, recently said that if Democrats win the Senate “we will take that first step into a thousand years of darkness”) will regularly bleed over into accusations that if you don’t support Trump then you wish for the apocalypse and therefore hate America.
That kind of rancid bile shouldn’t go unchallenged for a second.
But it will go unchallenged. We’re talking about Democrats here, although Alexandra Petri has a bit of fun with this:
Millions of Americans who opposed President Trump’s decision to kill Iranian Maj. Gen. Qasem Soleimani in a drone strike were devastated to learn that, actually, they loved the terrorist leader and could not possibly oppose this move for any other reason.
“Honestly,” Ann American said, “I could not have picked the guy out of a lineup a week ago, and my reservations around his killing were that it felt like a dangerous escalation that could lead to war, but it turns out that I’m actually a big fan of his who is sorry that he is dead. That’s the only reason I’m upset about this. Who knew! And I hate America? I need to buy very different lawn decorations.”
Maybe humor helps:
Homes were rocked by the revelation. “I thought I was in love with my wife,” Greg Gregson said. “We’ve been married 30 years, and I thought we had something, but …” Greg sighed. “I guess that wasn’t really love. All this time, I’ve been in love with terrorists. But the really devastating thing is – so has she. I just wish we’d been able to talk to each other instead of finding this out the way we did, by watching Rep. Doug Collins speak to Lou Dobbs on the Fox Business channel. She is upstairs packing her things while I drink this iced tea and shed bitter tears.”
And there’s this:
The entire Democratic primary field was shaken by the revelation, especially Pete Buttigieg, who assuredly would not have joined the military had he realized his deep passion for America’s destruction.
That’s cute, but that doesn’t change this:
President Trump opened his re-election year in the Midwest on Thursday, hoping to translate his confrontation with Iran into strength on the campaign trail as he boasted about killing the head of its elite security forces and derided Democrats for seeking to restrain his power to go to war.
For his first campaign rally of 2020, Mr. Trump returned to Ohio, where he has devoted much of his travel over the past three years to cement support that will be crucial to rebuilding the unlikely Electoral College coalition he assembled in 2016.
So it was Toledo this time:
Standing in front of a giant American flag, the president celebrated his decision to order a drone strike killing the Iranian commander, Maj. Gen. Qassim Suleimani, calling him “the world’s top terrorist” and insisting that he was planning to attack American embassies despite doubts about the intelligence. “He was a bad guy,” Mr. Trump told a cheering crowd at the Huntington Center, a minor-league hockey arena. “He was a bloodthirsty terror and he’s no longer a terror. He’s dead.”
Hours after House Democrats passed a resolution intended to limit Mr. Trump’s ability to wage war without congressional permission, the president said Speaker Nancy Pelosi had her priorities wrong.
“I see the radical left Democrats have expressed outrage over the termination of this horrible terrorist,” he said. “And you know, instead, they should be outraged by Suleimani’s savage crimes.”
At the mention of Ms. Pelosi, who he said is “not operating with a full deck,” some in the crowd shouted: “Lock her up! Lock her up!”
This was neither the time nor the place for reasoned discourse:
“Who do you like better, Trump or Abraham Lincoln?” he said, recalling the survey question. Some in the crowd shouted out their answer: “Trump! Trump!” although many others did not join in, perhaps quiet Lincoln admirers.
Mr. Trump said he shared the result of the poll with his wife, addressing her by her title. “I said, ‘First Lady, I just beat Abraham Lincoln in a poll,'” he said.
Orwell would get it, but then, maybe Donald Trump gets it:
Toward the end, after an extended attack on Democrats as corrupt, crime-loving socialists who are “stone-cold crazy,” Mr. Trump suddenly stopped and reflected on his own language. “Gee,” he said, “now I sort of understand why they hate me.”
What’s this? Is this some sort of new self-awareness? No, that’s just gloating. This was just giving an appearance of solidity to pure wind. Orwell was right all along.

It seems that each little village in Door County has a unique aspect onto its own. They all have their local charm, but if you dig deep enough, some small quirks begin to emerge. I think I found that happening right before my eyes in Egg Harbor. If Sister Bay is deemed food alley, then perhaps you can loose yourself in the Egg Harbor food triangle. Nothing is more inviting than the smell for fresh baked bread, the kind where you can even taste the love. MacReady uses their from-scratch breads to make fresh sandwiches like this tasty special with herbed cream cheese spread, fresh cucumbers and tomatoes of the season. Delicious! Park your car and walk your foodie butt around the downtown. I started at MacReady Artisan Bread company where they offer hand crafted artisan breads, the big, lumpy, fundamental, age-ol bread making kind. Owners Jenny and Michael were on hand, so I had a quick chat while I ogled the loaf rack. That's when Jenny noted that Egg Harbor is becoming unique because instead of a strip of different restaurants, the village has a great cluster of specialty food stores and food artisans. "Yeah... you're right!" I acknowledged. Jenny and Michael are so good at what they do, your biggest hurdle will be talking yourself out of taking too much home, be it that natural grain hippie loaf, the perfectly chewy bagel bread, or the buns, cookies, rolls...all so good. John cuts a full wheel of cheese in half to display the beautiful color. With my baguette in hand I marched down the street to Schoolhouse Artisan Cheese for an amazing cheese tasting. Stop in, if for nothing else, to finally see all those fancy cheese knives hard at work as cheese monger, John Witteborg, peels samples right from the big wheels. More amazing, is not only that he has the style and making of every cheese mastered, but the story of all the cheese makers too. Emerge from your cheese coma and ramble across the street for some gourmet sweets, then to Fat Louie's porch for tasting of olive oils and balsamic vinegars. Finish at the far reaches of the triangle with great craft brews and Wine Spectator award-winning bottles of wine. The entertaining part of a stop in Egg Harbor is not only the ridiculous amount of knowledge each store owner has about their craft and product, but that it was like a food scavenger hunt. After a short walk and several tastings, you end up with a build-your-own picnic. Who needs to pack a basket when you can build an experience, some memories, and a great lunch to head to the beach, bluff or state park?

With the exemption of a recovery start-up business, many taxpayers became ineligible to claim the ERC for incomes paid after September 30, 2021. A recoverystartup business can still claim the ERC for wages paid after June 30, 2021, and prior to January 1, 2022.
What Is The Employee Retention Credit (ERC), And How Does The Program Work?
When the Covid 19 pandemic started, as well as organizations were forced to close down their procedures, Congress passed programs to provide monetary help to business. One of these programs was the employee retention credit ( ERC).
The ERC provides eligible employers pay roll tax credit histories for salaries and medical insurance paid to workers. When the Infrastructure Investment and also Jobs Act was authorized into legislation in November 2021, it placed an end to the ERC program.
Despite the end of the program, businesses still have the possibility to claim ERC for up to three years retroactively. PPP forgiveness self employed. Below is an summary of how the program works and also exactly how to claim this credit for your business.
What Is The ERC?
Originally readily available from March 13, 2020, with December 31, 2020, the ERC is a refundable pay-roll tax credit created as part of the CARAR 0.0% ES Act. PPP forgiveness self employed. The purpose of the ERC was to urge employers to maintain their workers on pay-roll throughout the pandemic.
Certifying employers and borrowers that secured a Paycheck Protection Program loan could claim up to 50% of qualified incomes, including qualified health insurance expenditures. The Consolidated Appropriations Act (CAA) increased the ERC. Employers that qualified in 2021 can claim a credit of 70% in qualified earnings.
Who Is Eligible For The ERC?
Whether you receive the ERC relies on the time period you’re looking for. To be qualified for 2020, you require to have actually run a business or tax exempt company that was partially or fully shut down as a result of Covid-19. PPP forgiveness self employed. You additionally need to show that you experienced a significant decline in sales– less than 50% of equivalent gross receipts compared to 2019.
If you’re trying to get 2021, you should reveal that you experienced a decrease in gross receipts by 80% compared to the same amount of time in 2019. If you weren’t in business in 2019, you can compare your gross invoices to 2020.
The CARES Act does prohibit independent people from declaring the ERC for their own wages. PPP forgiveness self employed. You additionally can not claim incomes for certain individuals that relate to you, however you can claim the credit for earnings paid to workers.
What Are Qualified Wages?
What counts as qualified earnings depends on the dimension of your business as well as how many staff members you carry staff. There’s no dimension restriction to be eligible for the ERC, however small and also big companies are treated differently.
For 2020, if you had greater than 100 permanent staff members in 2019, you can just claim the wages of employees you maintained yet were not functioning. If you have less than 100 workers, you can claim every person, whether they were working or not.
For 2021, the threshold was elevated to having 500 permanent staff members in 2019, offering employers a whole lot a lot more freedom as to who they can claim for the credit. PPP forgiveness self employed. Any incomes that are based on FICA taxes Qualify, and also you can include qualified wellness expenditures when calculating the tax credit.
This revenue should have been paid between March 13, 2020, and also September 30, 2021. recoverystartup businesses have to claim the credit via the end of 2021.
Exactly how To Claim The Tax Credit.
Although the program ended in 2021, services still have time to claim the ERC. PPP forgiveness self employed. When you submit your federal tax returns, you’ll claim this tax credit by filling out Form 941.
Some organizations, particularly those that received a Paycheck Protection Program loan in 2020, wrongly believed they didn’t receive the ERC. PPP forgiveness self employed. If you’ve already submitted your tax returns and also currently realize you are eligible for the ERC, you can retroactively apply by filling in the Adjusted Employer’s Quarterly Federal Tax Return (941-X).
Given that the tax laws around the ERC have altered, it can make identifying qualification perplexing for several business owners. The procedure gets also harder if you have multiple organizations.

The Sanitization of Criminal Justice ?
The Use of Illness in Criminal Trials
This article examines the inclusion of a health approach in judicial decisions through an analysis of legal proceedings whereby defendants, judges and lawyers use health issues during criminal trials. Based on observations conducted over the course of a year in three sections of a summary trial court and the creation of a database from these obser- vations (n = 290), we show that illness is an approach explored by magistrates who, following a rationale of individualizing punishment, encourage defendants to reveal their “health problems.” Those who are shown to be ill are then systematically questioned on their involvement in medical care. Regression analysis reveals that this care strongly determines the criminal punishment. Defendants undergoing medical treatment are “pro- tected” from prison while those who are not receiving treatment are more often sent straight to prison at the end of their trials. These results and the analysis of arguments in which “health problems” are used in the course of hearings, emphasize the supposi- tions on which judges base their decisions, and which take the form of three normative imperatives affecting all defendants. This leads to the over-incarceration of the most marginalized, among them, the sick who are not undergoing treatment.
Key words. CRIMINAL JUSTICE – HEALTH – SENTENCING – INDIVIDUALIZATION OF PUNISHMENT – NORMATIVE IMPERATIVES

Weston resident graduates from Read Easy programme
- Credit: Read Easy Weston-super-Mare
Volunteers of a charity which helps people learn to read held a socially distanced ceremony for a Weston graduate this month.
Read Easy Weston-super-Mare, which is part of Read Easy UK, launched in February last year, and offers free, one-to-one coaching for adults who struggle with reading.
Volunteers say as soon as they started, they were hit by the first lockdown and had to halt their face-to-face coaching. It took until late autumn for members to reorganise the group and instead deliver an online service.
In November 2020, volunteer coach Chris Knight started to teach Weston resident Michal over Zoom and this month, they celebrated his graduation.
Read Easy Weston team leader, Tim Bull, said the pair never met in person, but they quickly established a rapport and with Chris' guidance, Michal dedicated himself 100 per cent to the programme.

Tim added that the certificate will be Michal’s springboard into further adult education courses.

Commission for the Historical Geography and Spatial Analysis of Byzantiumat the Association Internationale des Etudes Byzantines (AIEB)
The proposal for the foundation of a "Commission for the Historical Geography and Spatial Analysis of Byzantium" was submitted officially with a letter to the Presidency of the AIEB on 16 December 2015 by the Austrian Society for Byzantine Studies through its President Prof. Dr. Claudia Rapp based on the initiative of Prof. Dr. Andreas Külzer and Doz. Dr. Mihailo Popović (both Project-Leaders of the Tabula Imperii Byzantini of the Austrian Academy of Sciences). As stated in the aforesaid letter, twelve international experts in the fields of the Historical Geography and Spatial Analysis of Byzantium were named as members for the formation of the respective Commission.
At the session of the AIEB in Belgrade Mihailo Popović was nominated by the Austrian Society for Byzantine Studies to present the proposal to the present delegates. He outlined that the envisaged Commission will have the aim to observe the vibrant scholarly developments in the respective fields, to compare ongoing projects and to address related methodological questions. It will focus on the "classic" Historical Geography as well as on emerging tools coming from the field of GeoSciences. Therefore, Cartography will play an important role in its future discourse. Although related academic fields (e.g. Archaeology, Digital Humanities etc.) will be included in the discussions of the Commission, it has to be stressed that the Commission is eager to strengthen the overall picture of Historical Geography and to coordinate dispersed scholarly initiatives. Following a short discussion, in which the submitted list of members was augmented by the names of Leah di Segni (Israel), Joseph Patrich (Israel), Toni Filiposki ([FY]R Macedonia), Anastasia G. Yangaki (Greece) and Georgi Nikolov (Bulgaria), the aforesaid Commission was accepted unanimously by the present delegates.
In accordance with its aims the chair of the “Commission for the Historical Geography and Spatial Analysis of Byzantium”, Mihailo Popović, is coordinating and publishing a quarterly Newsletter (DPP Newsletter) on different aspects of Historical Geography and Digital Humanities in Byzantine Studies, supported by the projects “Tabula Imperii Byzantini (TIB)” and “Digitising Patterns of Power (DPP): Peripherical Mountains in the Medieval World” of the Austrian Academy of Sciences: https://dpp.oeaw.ac.at/index.php?seite=Newsletter

ASSESSING STREET SPATIAL CHARACTER: COMBINING FRACTAL ANALYSIS OF STREET EDGES AND SKYLINE
URI (for links/citations):https://elib.sfu-kras.ru/handle/2311/111715
(Bin Cong, Wei You, Wowo Ding: School of Architecture and Urban Planning, Nanjing University, Hankou Road 22, Nanjing, Jiangsu, China, 210093 e-mail: firstname.lastname@example.org)
Proceedings of the XXV ISUF International Conference “Urban Form and Social Context: from Traditions to Newest Demands” (Krasnoyarsk, July 5–9, 2018)
The character of urban space is a hot research point in urban morphological studies. James J. Gibson’s research proved that the physical morphology is better to be measured by the visibility of geometry rather than geometry itself (Batty 2001). There have been many approaches such as sky view factors (SVF), which developed a 3D viewsphere model to measure the spatial openness, and fractal analysis. The fractal analysis of street edges proposed by Jon Cooper is one of the most helpful indexes describing spatial character because it directly reflects the space shape cognized. However, the height of a street wall and the width of a street, two of the most important dimensions related to the space, have not been involved yet. Following Cooper’s research, this paper tries to introduce the height of a street wall into the fractal analysis of street edges. Firstly, we chose several streets in the center of Nanjing city with various widths and building heights along the street. Through setting viewpoints within the street, the geometric relations between all edges and points have been built, so had the skyline. Furthermore, combining SVF techniques, we have developed the 3D viewsphere model as a tool to get continuous visual perception data of the street and the heights of the street walls related. According to the visibility theory, the street spatial character could be described and generated, vice versa. Finally, this paper tried to use the spatial configuration codes based on the fractal analysis and data-graph of perception to generate a new street with the similar spatial characteristics. It proves the value of the research as a tool for urban design.
