IN THE SUPREME COURT OF SEYCHELLES
Civil Side: 64 /2012
 SCSC 1001
Brian Mathiot Plaintiff
Jason Camille First Defendant
Seychelles Public Transport Corporation Second Defendant
Trevor Rolodziej Third Defendant
Laxmanbhai and Company Seychelles (Pty) Limited Fourth Defendant
Heard: 17 March 2014 -6 September 2017
Counsel: Mr. Nichol Gabriel for the Plaintiff
Ms. Kelly Kim Koon and Mr. Kieran Shah for the First and Second Defendants
Mr. Danny Lucas for the Fourth Defendant.
Delivered: 30 October 2017
M. TWOMEY, CJ
 In an Amended Plaint dated 10 October 2012, the Plaintiff claimed against the four Defendants a sum of SR1, 300, 350 for injuries suffered as a result of an accident on 15 June 2010.
 The Plaintiff claimed that on 15 June 2010 he had been travelling on a bus driven by the First Defendant and owned by the Second Defendant. He alighted from the bus after the First Defendant opened the automatic door and was subsequently struck by a pickup driven by the Third Defendant and owned by the Fourth Defendant.
 The Plaintiff claimed that the First Defendant had been negligent in activating the door when the bus was still in operation and that the Third Defendant had failed to heed sufficiently the presence of pedestrians on the road and the Second and Fourth Defendants were vicariously liable for the acts of their préposés.
 The hearing of the evidence in this suit was initially undertaken by my brother E. S. De Silva J but on grounds of ill health resigned from his post. Subsequently, on the agreement of the parties this Court adopted the evidence adduced and proceeded to complete the hearing of the evidence.
 Sergeant Doudée testified on behalf of the Plaintiff that on 15 June 2010 he was on road patrol. He was travelling on the highway near Barclays Bank when he noticed a traffic jam and someone squatting on the side of the road. On disembarking he found the Plaintiff with his feet under his stomach and his face nearly touching the ground. He saw a bus and a pickup at the scene of the accident. He preserved the scene and called the ambulance.
 On checking the door of the bus, the driver told him that the door could not always be opened properly when activated by a switch. However, when the mechanism was demonstrated to him it operated correctly. He was in charge of the investigation and subsequently charged the First and Third Defendants but was not aware whether they had been convicted. A transcript of the ruling of the Magistrates’ Court dated 3 July 2013 in a traffic case in which the Third Defendant was charged with negligent driving and acquitted Exhibit D4(1) was subsequently produced.
 Sergeant Doudée of the Traffic Division of the Police Force stated that the accident occurred where the highway had three lanes with the bus driven by the First Defendant in the middle lane and the pick-up driven by the Third Defendant in the lane closest to the mountainside but he could not remember in which lane the Plaintiff was. In cross examination he stated that the Plaintiff was on the road in front of the pickup.
 Constable Eddy Racombo was a passenger on the bus driven by the First Defendant on the day of the accident. He witnessed two boys also on the bus shouting at the driver to stop at Providence. The driver did not hear them and the bus passed the bus stop. The boys continued to shout and then the driver stopped the bus in the middle of the road on the highway and one of the boys alighted and was hit by the pickup driven by the Third Defendant. A sketch plan (Exhibit 1) was drawn by the Court and the witness indicated that the Plaintiff lay next to the back door of the bus in front of the pickup in the lane next to the grass verge about fifteen metres away from the bus stop.
 Judeley Jean-Baptiste who was accompanying the Plaintiff on the bus also testified. He said that he was a childhood friend of the Plaintiff. He had travelled with the Plaintiff from the airport and they were going to Providence. On reaching their destination they had pressed the buzzer but it had not worked. They had therefore shouted three times to the driver to stop the bus but he passed the bus top. So they shouted louder and the bus stopped about twenty-five metres ahead of the bus stop in the middle of the road. The Plaintiff alighted and was struck by a grey pickup.
 Dr. Mickey Noel, a consultant anaesthetist and critical care specialist also testified. He had cared for the Plaintiff in the Intensive Care Unit. The Plaintiff had sustained a head injury, a fracture of the left femur, a laceration on the forehead and facial bruises. He was intubated and put onto a ventilator.
 He was stabilised and referred to the orthopaedic surgeon who repaired the fracture of the femur. He was extubated a week later and was a bit agitated. He did not respond well to verbal commands. He received physiotherapy on a daily basis. His recovery was slow but he was eventually discharged to the d’Offay Ward.
 A medical report made by Dr. Caridad Hernandez confirms the evidence of Dr. Mickey Noel. Dr. Hernandez stated that the Plaintiff was transferred on 16 July 2010 to North East Point Rehabilitation Hospital for a rehabilitation programme and although unable to walk then was conscious and alert and communicating well verbally. The Plaintiff subsequently regained ambulation and was discharged home on 6 August 2010. He did not attend follow up appointments but was readmitted for removal of plate and screws in his leg on 6 June 2014 and discharged on 9 June 2014.
 At the time of the hearing the Court was informed that the Third Defendant had passed away and that the Plaintiff would not be proceeding against him in the action filed.
 The First Defendant testified that he had been working as a driver for the Seychelles Public Transport Company (SPTC) for 27 years and that he had never had a traffic accident. On the day of the incident he was coming from Baie Lazare to Victoria and had not stopped at Providence. He had been driving at a speed of about 20 km/h on a highway on which the speed limit was 80km/h. After the bus stop and the roundabout he slowed down the bus as he heard swearing inside the bus. He then noticed a pickup passing the bus on the left and the Plaintiff being propelled forwards by the pickup. He assumed that when he had pressed the footbrake to slow down the bus the door had somehow opened and the Plaintiff had alighted from the bus. He was adamant that he had not opened the door which is operated by hand control and that he had not heard the Plaintiff asking him to stop the bus.
 A statement by the SPTC was produced in which Sergeant Doudée, Daniel Joseph and Anne Elizabeth, (the latter two being employees of SPTC) had stated that the bus had been tested on 4 July 2010 and that although it was made to slow down at intervals, the rear door did not open unless the door lever was manipulated by the driver. The First Defendant remained adamant that on the day of the incident the door did open when the bus slowed down.
 Mr. Jean-Claude Rosine testified on behalf of the First and Second Defendants. He was a supervisor mechanic in charge of the maintenance section and supervised a staff of 30 persons. He was familiar with the bus involved in the incident, a Tata bus model 1316. The doors were mechanical and operated pneumatically by a push button pressed by the driver. He explained that the doors are operated by air cylinders which are filled with compressed air. A compressor compresses air which then goes through a 4-way valve supplying the auxiliary air door. He admitted that although rare there was a possibility that the door could open without the push button being operated. He was aware that this had happened before.
 He gave instances which would cause this to happen: the feed air tube to the cylinder being broken or where the air condenses and produces water which would interfere with the mechanism. This would mean that if the brake was applied the door would open automatically as the air would not be going through the cylinder.
 In cross examination, he admitted that he did not examine the bus involved in the incident to confirm whether the air tube was faulty. He also admitted that a passenger on the bus cannot activate the push button operating the door. It was explained to the court that the mechanic who had examined the mechanism had also passed away.
 Walter Labrosse testified on behalf of the Fourth Defendant. The pick-up involved in the accident was tested. Apart from the bonnet being dented by the impact of the collision with the Plaintiff and a rear shackle pin in the pickup beginning to wear, the vehicle was in good working order as confirmed by the vehicle inspection report (Exhibit D4(2)). He could not explain how the Plaintiff had ended up on the bonnet of the pickup as he had not been present. He could only presume that he could have landed there after alighting from the bus.
 There were no closing submissions from the Plaintiff but the First, Second and Fourth Defendants made written submissions.
 The First and Second Defendants have submitted that the claim founded on delict necessitates the proving of three elements: fault, damage and a causal link between the two.
 I agree with this submission on the law. However, in Constance v Grandcourt (unreported)  SCSC 868, I explained that under our laws a victim of a road traffic accident had the choice to proceed under Articles 1382, 1383 or 1384 of the Civil Code. Article 1383(2) deals specifically with motor accidents and provides:
‘The driver of a motor vehicle which, by reason of its operation, causes damage to persons or property shall be presumed to be at fault and shall accordingly be liable unless he can prove that the damage was solely due to the negligence of the injured party or the act of a third party or an act of God external to the operation or functioning of the vehicle. Vehicle defects, or the breaking or failure of its parts, shall not be considered as cases of an act of God.”
 I reiterate that a regime of strict liability operates under Article 1383(2) in that the victim of the damage must allege and establish only the causal role of the chose (thing - here the bus) operated by the custodian by which the damage has occurred (See Vel v Tirant (1978) SLR 7).
 In Sullivan v Magnan  SCSC 491, I stated:
“[W]hile the victim of the damage benefits from a presumption of causality (responsibility) by the custodian, the latter may be exonerated fully or partially if he can show that there existed natural events (e.g. vis major), the intervening act of a third party or the act of the victim himself.
 In applying these legal principles first to the Fourth Defendant who in this case is being held by the Plaintiff to be vicariously liable for the accident, learned Counsel for the Fourth Defendant, Mr. Lucas, submitted that since the Third Defendant was acquitted by the Magistrates Court on 3 July 2013 of negligent driving, that finding estops the retrial of the issue in the Supreme Court, albeit in a civil case. That submission is not sustainable as it is not the law in Seychelles. I explained the probative distinction between a conviction and an acquittal in the case of Marie and ors v Cafrine (unreported) CS 64/2012.
 Further, section 29 of our Evidence Act provides in relevant part:
(1) In a trial the fact that a person, other than, in the case of a criminal trial, the accused, has been convicted of an offence by or before any court in the Republic shall be admissible in evidence for the purpose of proving, where to do so is relevant to any issue in the trial, that that person committed the offence or otherwise, whether or not any other evidence of his having committed that offence is given.
(2) In a trial, other than in a civil trial for defamation, in which by virtue of this section a person, other than, in the case of criminal trial, the accused, is proved to have been convicted of an offence by or before a court in the Republic, he shall be taken to have committed that offence unless the contrary is proved.
5) Where evidence that a person has been convicted of an offence is admissible under this section, then without prejudice to the reception of any other admissible evidence for the purpose of identifying the facts on which the conviction was based
(a) the contents of any document which is admissible as evidence of the conviction; and
(b) the contents of the information, complaint or charge sheet on which the person was convicted, shall be admissible in evidence for that purpose.”
 Section 29 expresses statutorily the concept in common law which prevents a party in court proceedings from contradicting a finding of fact or law that has already been determined in previous court proceedings between the same parties. However, equally applicable is the distinction between criminal convictions and acquittals in subsequent proceedings. In Marie (supra), I provided jurisprudence on this issue to show that an acquittal on a criminal charge does not have the same evidentiary impact on a subsequent civil proceeding as a conviction has and it does not estop an issue in the subsequent proceeding.
 I also stated that the specific wording of the provision of section 29 also makes it clear that the probative value accorded to a conviction does not apply to an acquittal of a defendant. The Third Defendant’s acquittal in the Magistrates’ Court cannot therefore be relied on to fully exonerate the Fourth Defendant’s vicarious liability in the present case.
 However, I do find that on the evidence adduced in the present case the Fourth Defendant has successfully rebutted the presumption of fault against the Third Defendant and itself. A vehicle observing the traffic code to drive on the left and travelling within the speed limit on the highway cannot be expected to foresee or see passengers alighting from a bus into its right hand path especially from the fast lane in traffic.
 As the Defendant committed no fault, the Fourth Defendant’s liability for the accident is not established.
 I have already alluded to the strict liability regime imposed by Article 1383(2) of the Civil Code on the custodian of the vehicle being operated. I have also explained that this liability is rebuttable when it can be shown that the fault may have been due to an extraneous occurrence.
 In the present case, evidence was adduced by the First and Second Defendants as to the mechanical state of the bus and the actions of the Plaintiff. There was evidence that directly after the accident the bus was examined and door was observed to open normally. This is corroborated by a statement from SPTC that when a further test was carried out “the bus slowed down at intervals during the journey but the rear door did not open [and that] the open door lever had to be manipulated by the driver for it to open.”
 Although, Mr. Rosine testified that on rare occasions the rear doors of such buses had opened without the door lever being manipulated by the driver if the air cylinder was faulty, he admitted that he had not examined the bus involved in the incident.
 The Roman maxim actor incumbit probatio or “he who avers must prove” is incorporated in our laws, namely in Article 1315 of the Seychelles Civil Code. In civil cases the Plaintiff must prove on a balance of probability that a certain incident occurred. We must ordinarily balance the Plaintiff’s claim against the Defendant’s defence, and decide which of their versions is more likely to be true. In the present case with the strict liability regime in operation, the burden (on the same standard of proof) shifts onto the Defendants to show that the accident causing the injury to the Plaintiff happened through an event outside their control.
 In Suleman v Joubert (unreported) SCA 27/2010 the Court of Appeal quoted with approval Re B (Children)  UKHL 35 whereby Lord Hoffman using a mathematical analogy in explaining the burden of proof stated:
“If a legal rule requires a fact to be proved (a ’fact in issue’), a Judge or Jury must decide whether or not it happened. There is no room for a finding that it might have happened. The law operates a binary system in which the only values are 0 and 1. The fact either happened or it did not. If the tribunal is left in doubt, the doubt is resolved by a rule that one party or the other carries the burden of proof. If the party who bears the burden of proof fails to discharge it, a value of 0 is returned and the fact is treated as not having happened. If he does discharge it, a value of 1 is returned and the fact is treated as having happened” (paragraph 2).
 Similarly and in even clearer terms Denning J in Miller v Minister of Pensions  2 All ER 372 stated:
"If the evidence is such that the tribunal can say 'we think it more probable than not' the burden is discharged, but if the probabilities are equal it is not"(Page 374).
 Having weighed the evidence I am not of the view that the First and Second Defendants have succeeded in discharging the burden of proof in order to escape the strict liability regime imposed by Article 1383(2).
 Even if I were to believe that the door mechanism failed on the fateful day that of its own will not succeed to exonerate the First and Second Defendants as the proviso to Article 1383(2) provides that: “Vehicle defects, or the breaking or failure of its parts, shall not be considered as cases of an act of God”.
 Moreover, the First and Second Defendants have failed to establish the reason for the driver slowing or stopping in the middle lane of a busy highway. That of its own amounts to a fault on the part of the First Defendant. Whether he was disturbed by swearing or the Plaintiff’s calls to stop, as a responsible driver his duty ought to have been to move the bus to the left hand lane and eventually where appropriate onto the hard shoulder to come to a complete stop to allow the Plaintiff to alight safely. There is in any case the evidence of two witnesses that the bus came to a complete stop in the middle lane and the evidence of one of those witnesses was that of on off duty police officer who had no reason to be partial to the Plaintiff. In the circumstances, I find the liability of the First Defendant established for which the vicarious liability of the Second Defendant is also established.
 The question still arises as to contributory negligence of the Plaintiff for his injuries. The cases of Gonsalvez v Wilson (1978) SLR 202 and Laramé v Antoine (1982) SLR 456 establishing the apportionment of fault under the principles of contributory negligence are instructive on this point.
 The evidence adduced in the present case is that the Plaintiff exited the bus in the middle of the highway onto the path of oncoming vehicles. That is not the act of a prudent man and since that fact is not rebutted in any way it establishes his contributory negligence to the accident and his injuries which I assess at 25%.
 I now turn to the issue of quantum of damages to be awarded in the present case. The First and Second Defendants have submitted that although the Plaintiff suffered a fracture of the left femur, diffuse axonal injury to the nervous system and a severe traumatic head injury there is no follow up report to establish his present level of disability, if any. He stated that he is able to walk and work and he has not shown how he has suffered anxiety, distress or depression. The Third Defendant has submitted that there is no evidence of any permanent incapacity suffered by the Plaintiff.
 It has often been stated in this court that in the absence of the Plaintiff bringing evidence and authorities to support quantum of damages the Court may only award a sum of damages, estimated to the best of its abilities. I also note that compensation in such cases is purely compensatory.
 I disregard the cases cited by Counsel for the First and Second Defendants prior to 2010 which I believe do not reflect the current standard of living. In Tucker and Another v La Digue Island Lodge  SCSC 98 the Plaintiff was awarded a global sum of SR190, 000 for a fracture of the knee and permanent disability. William v Joseph (unreported) CS 299/2010 was decided in 2014 and the Court therein awarded SR90, 000 for pain and suffering and SR25, 000 for moral damages. In that case the Plaintiff suffered a fracture of the left wrist, injured his back and had a stiff neck which prevented him from resuming his fishing activities by which he earned his living. In Otieno v SPTC  SCSC 85 the Plaintiff sustained a broken left leg and continues to have a limp. He was awarded a global sum of SR180, 000.
 In Jacques v Property Management Corporation  SCSC 13 the Plaintiff sustained horrific injuries resulting in tetraplegia. Specifically for pain and suffering he was awarded SR200, 000 and SR 100,000 for moral damage. In Maria vs Valencia  SCSC 295 the Court awarded SR300, 000 for injury to the Plaintiff’s coccyx and a further sum of SR200, 000 for moral damage. In that case there was evidence that her injury was degenerative and could eventually result into paralysis.
 In Charles vs Constance  SCSC 229, the Plaintiff although fully recovered and in fulltime work had suffered contusion of both lungs and numerous fractures of the ribs spending fifteen days in the Intensive Care Unit as result of a road traffic accident. She was awarded the sum of SR150, 000 for her pain and suffering and SR50, 000 for moral damages. In Low Toy v Manikon and Anor  SCSC 173, the Plaintiff was awarded SR50, 000 for pain and suffering, SR100, 000 for partial permanent disability to the right hip and SR20, 000 for moral damages. He had suffered dislocation of the right hip, fracture of the anterior column of the right acetabulum with fragment dislocation with resulting deformity of the right hip and the limitation on a range of movements and tenderness and inability to move his right foot.
 In Dodin v Geers  SCSC 157 however, the Supreme Court noted that there was an upward trend in the quantum of damages to be awarded in road traffic accidents. In that case the Plaintiff suffered injuries to his eye and his knee and received the global sum of SR760, 200. There was permanent disability sustained by the Plaintiff in this case.
 Based on the figures in the above-mentioned cases, it would appear that award for severe injuries in the past five years have been in the region of SR250, 000 to SR500, 000 with Dodin this year being the highest award at SR760, 200. The trend in awards is definitely upward to reflect costs and standards of living.
 I believe that since no permanent disability was sustained by the Plaintiff that a fair award for his injury would be SR500, 000. I also find that the sum of SR 100,000 for moral damages would be fair. He is entitled to the cost of the medical report for which he was charged SR350.
 The total award in this case amounts to SR600, 350. Since the Plaintiff’s contributory negligence is assessed at 25% I order that the First and Second Defendants jointly and severally pay him the sum of SR450, 262.50 with costs.
Signed, dated and delivered at Ile du Port on 30 October 2017.

Hunter S. Thompson's Prediction Of The World Post-9/11 Was Spot On
| Last updated
Sixteen years ago today the world witnessed the most horrific terrorist attack in history, when two planes flew into the World Trade Center in New York City.
Most of us who are old enough to remember that chilling day in 2001 will most probably recall exactly where we were and what we were doing when the news broke. At first there was confusion after the first plane hit, but then it became clear what was happening as cameras captured the second crashing into the World Trade Center.
Many became heroes that day, and in the weeks that followed, though there were many more fatalities. It was impossible to prepare for, and even harder to react to. It changed a lot of things.
People tried to predict what would happen from that day onwards, and writer Hunter S. Thompson came eerily close to getting it exactly right.
On 12 September 2001, a day after the attack, Thompson's ESPN column read: "The towers are gone now, reduced to bloody rubble, along with all hopes for Peace in Our Time, in the United States or any other country. Make no mistake about it: We are At War now - with somebody - and we will stay At War with that mysterious Enemy for the rest of our lives.
"It will be a Religious War, a sort of Christian Jihad, fueled by religious hatred and led by merciless fanatics on both sides. It will be guerilla warfare on a global scale, with no front lines and no identifiable enemy.
"We are going to punish somebody for this attack, but just who or what will be blown to smithereens for it is hard to say. Maybe Afghanistan, maybe Pakistan or Iraq, or possibly all three at once. Who knows? Not even the Generals in what remains of the Pentagon or the New York papers calling for WAR seem to know who did it or where to look for them.
"This is going to be a very expensive war, and Victory is not guaranteed - for anyone, and certainly not for anyone as baffled as George W. Bush. All he knows is that his father started the war a long time ago, and that he, the goofy child-President, has been chosen by Fate and the global Oil industry to finish it Now.
"He will declare a National Security Emergency and clamp down Hard on Everybody, no matter where they live or why. If the guilty won't hold up their hands and confess, he and the Generals will ferret them out by force."
The amount of foresight you have to have to predict that just one day after is chilling.- Erick Fernandez (@ErickFernandez) September 11, 2017
Accurate or merely speculative? People are certainly suggesting that Thompson, the founder of gonzo journalism and author of Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas, got closer than anyone else to foreseeing how things would go after this.

Today’s letters take issue with the ‘body politic’, i.e. our political parties. The first one is from our contributor and reader Jack Russell who asks inconvenient questions of the UKIP Party Management:
This week members received two letters – actual letters! – in the post. They were printed on top quality paper. One was by Paul Nuttall, the other by Alan Bown – and that was yet another begging letter.
I’ve read the excellent article by Mr Russell Hicks [Ed: here] and these two letters illustrate his criticism.
Why is it that our leaders and party managers only address us – by post or by email, e.g. that “Independent News is Back”-email a few days ago – when they need more money, while at the same time only telling us goody-goody ‘news’ which are of no use at all?
Members aren’t idiots, we read the papers and watch the news, and we talk to people. We don’t need to be told by our ‘leaders’ how and what to think! We don’t need Mr Oakden travelling around the country, organising conferences with Regional chairmen to tell tell them what our leaders want from us (“no unkind remarks about UKIP on social media!”) while those chairmen cannot even get a word in edgewise at such conferences. Of course, us ordinary members only get to know about such conferences when they are leaked to ‘order-order’, or when there’s a branch meeting and the chairman reports – days, weeks, after the event.
So now Arron Banks has sent out his email establishing his “Patriotic Alliance” – and have we heard anything from our leaders about that? Are they asleep? Do they need a ‘politbureau meeting’ to formulate a ‘party line’ to tell us what to think?
If I want to be really unkind, I would speculate that our leaders knew full well this was coming, and that they knew full well that Arron Banks was going to ask for his money back (see here) – thus the ‘keep calm and carry on’ letter by Paul Nuttall and the begging letter by Alan Bown … but I’m not unkind – I simply state that it’s the usual ‘we know best – you peasants keep quiet and pay up’ attitude our leaders have indulged in for so long. And then they wonder why so many members tear up their cards and leave …
Respectfully, Jack Russell
Today’s second letter is from our reader Hugo Jenks, who gives chapter and verse about the islamification of the ‘Official Opposition’ Party, Labour:
is Labour becoming the Islamic party?
The Labour List website clearly does not believe in freedom of expression, which is the bedrock of democracy. Articles relating to the terrorist attack have comments disabled. I do keep an eye on that website, and all the articles relating to anti-Semitism within Labour also did not permit comments. How is Labour ever going to address its fundamental problems unless some level of honest debate is permitted?
They have become reliant on the Muslim vote, and maybe not surprisingly they have selected a Muslim candidate for the Manchester Gorton election. And guess what? Comments on that article are also disabled!
Labour and Islam make a good match, if you ignore ideas of equality. Labour clearly does not believe in true equality anyway, the fact that they have all-women short lists proves that to be so – these discriminate against men. Both Labour and Islam instinctively want to control those outside their group, rather than allowing freedom. They both believe in redistributing money from the productive to the unproductive. Historically in Islamic countries non-Muslims had to pay the Jizya tax as a sign of submission. In the UK we are effectively paying such a tax already when we purchase any Halal product – the Halal certification authority receives a fee!
The grovelling, Dhimmi leaflet distributed for Paul Nuttall by the members of the Stoke UKIP branch has dismayed many UKIP members and supporters. Those who helped with the main campaign had no idea that this leaflet existed, and many would not have gone to campaign if they had known. UKIP cannot go chasing after the Muslim vote, what is the point? There really is no point in UKIP becoming Labour-lite!
Respectfully, Hugo Jenks
“Fight those who do not believe in Allah or in the Last Day and who do not consider unlawful what Allah and His Messenger have made unlawful and who do not adopt the religion of truth from those who were given the Scripture – [fight] until they give the jizyah willingly while they are humbled.”
Labour List articles:
Afzal Khan MEP selected as Labour’s candidate for Manchester Gorton – comments disabled!
Our thanks go to the brave police and emergency services – Jeremy Corbyn – comments disabled
Keith Palmer was killed while bravely doing his duty – Sadiq Khan – comments disabled
Our thoughts are with the victims of this horrific attack – Jeremy Corbyn – comments disabled


I’ve been working on a site that uses a App-model style layout;
3 columns, like an Email client.
It works using Divs laid out with CSS, and generally works really well.
It even loads well on older version of Netscape, properly degrading to run, even if it’s not as pretty.
The more I look at it, though, the more I wonder if there is more I could do.
If dropping support for ancient browsers is really necessary at all.
Given that it’s a simple 3 column site, my initial thought was to experiment with frames. While these work, dataURI+frames aren’t as well supported as I’d like, and the experience of frames on lynx is not ideal.
What about Tables?
There are few traditional arguments that are given against tables:
- HTML should be semantic
- Screen Readers can’t handle Tables
- CSS lets you just change the one CSS file, rather than every page
- Table Layouts are only used by people who can’t do divs properly
It’s often argued that HTML should be semantic where possible, and to split the presentation (CSS) from the layout (HTML). In practice, however, this often doesn’t work out. To make various tricks work right, developers are often creating a wide variety of presentational divs anyway, for wrappers and other non-semantic content.

<!– Actual page content here –>
You could certainly argue that we’re moving in a more semantic direction, and HTML5 certainly moves in that direction, but we’re still a long way away from there.
Combine that with other work arounds that are being done to support non-performant browsers
[if IE 6]>
and it’s hard to justify that a simple table is much worse.
Modern screen readers are actually fairly decently at handling tables. They’ve improved in the last 10 years since we started using CSS.
Additionally, you can mark a table as presentational, so that it can be interpreted as such using role=”presentation”.
JAWS, WindowEyes, and NVDA will all do the right thing.
If I were manually editing 100s of files, this might be a valid concern – But like many modern developers, I’m writing web applications designed to run with a templating system – Python, Ruby, even PHP have libraries which make this trivial. I can change my structure in a single location, and have it automatically apply on every pageload.
I can sympathize with this view- There’s a lot of people who get stuck in CSS land, and resort to a “Screw it, I’ll use a table” attitude, so I can see where it comes from. But Google and Twitter are using tables as part of their layouts, and I’m sure they have someone there who knows what they’re doing 😉
In my case, I have the layout working properly in CSS, but I’m deliberately redoing it, spending extra time, to gain the broad-compatibility that a table-based layout brings.
Some things are easier, some things are harder, but it’s a valid choice in designing a site.
But CSS is really useful!
It sure is!
And I’m in favor of using CSS, all over the place!
Gradients are better than images, rotation is amazing, and changing elements through properties is useful.
CSS has it’s warts (Templating would be nice..), but it’s a great way to explain how elements should look. And divs are often useful for layout, too.
But non-tabular use of a tables is probably OK, as part of a well-balanced breakfast.

Overview of Kirthar National Park
Kirthar National Park
Established in 1974, this park was built by the Wildlife Department. This park is the second largest national park after Mongolian National Park.
And it is one of the four National Parks of Pakistan which are included in the list of National Parks of the United Nations.
Leopards, Striped Hyena, Wolves, Chinkara Deer, Sindhi Wild Goats, Ratels’ Oryal Bulbul, Gazelle, and numerous other animals are kept in this park.
This park has been specially built as a habitat for rare animals. The park also preserves the black chital which was gifted by former Texas
(USA) to the state of Bahawalpur. The park also has a beautiful lake called Jab. During the monsoon, the park becomes lush with greenery. However,
the best time to visit is from October to February. There is also a Rest House of the Sindh Wildlife Management Board. Two tourist centers within the
park are Khar and Karchat. Accommodation and guide arrangements are also available for tourists at these centers. If you have time, you must see
the ancient rock carvings discovered a few years ago in the Ker Thar mountain range.
You can contact Sindh Wildlife Management Board Karachi on phone number 5683176 for booking a rest house in Ker Thar Park.

HNN Hot Topics: Robert Byrd, the Historian's Senator
THANKS to Senator Byrd, nearly $1 billion of federal dollars have been allocated over the past decade to improve K-12 history education. A child who was in the first grade when the program started in 2001 would now be a junior in high school. So it is no exaggeration to say Senator Byrd's love of American history has been passed on to an entire generation of America's school children. Among his many accomplishments, that is one of his greatest legacies.

What are anal glands and how often to express dogs anal glands? Well, anal glands are referred to as scent glands because that is a method that you’re canine could mark his/her territory. The dogs anal glands are found just under and either side of the anus. Dog`s use them to recognize one another and for marking their territory leaving their unique smell. Oily secretions build up within the dogs anal glands and this is a completely natural process.
Express Dogs Anal Glands Can Be Crucial
In most dogs, the anal gland cleans itself, and doesn’t require routine consideration, but sometimes they will get blocked or impacted, causing the canine to lick at its anus or drag its rear across the ground. However, in some cases it’s crucial for you to manually express your dog anal glands instead.
Express dog anal glands could be the most unpleasant and weird process that you have to do through the grooming process and there is much debate about whether or not and how often it needs to be done.
Some dog owners say that it truly harms the dog and reduces bowel activity. However, this is not true. Bowel activity is essentially regulated by diet so you do not need to worry about harming your dog.
3 Tips to Express Dogs Anal Glands
1. Proceed as when you were giving your canine a bath and ensure that the area around the bath is covered in towels. When you’re expressing the dogs anal glands, the contents may squirt out unexpectedly so it’s better to prepare well and keep away from any excess mess.
2. While you get your canine in the tub, you want to first find the glands, but this could be a difficult activity because they are typically not possible to see. Dogs anal glands are often found to either side of the anus, particularly at 5 o’clock and 7 o’clock on your dog`s backside.
3. You must gently rub the part of skin underneath which the glands are present to get a thought of their measurement and shape. They normally are the size and shape of a kidney bean, maybe a little larger if they’re full or infected.
Place your thumb and forefinger beneath the skin underneath the actual openings and squeeze.
DON’T WORRY; expressing and cleaning the dog anal glands does not hurt or cause your dog pain in any way. However for those who do it fist time and for those who has a weak stomach, it’s better to get help from a vet.
Natural Remedies for Dog Anal Glands
Fortunately for as pet owners, there are many natural herbs for pets that have long been used to detoxify their body and support with wast elimination. Urtica urens is outstanding for organic cleansing and soothing while Taraxacum officinale (Dandelion) is a well-known and efficient natural cleaner assisting to detox your dog system and is ideal for use on the anal glands.
Matricaria recutita (German Chamomile) and Achillea millefolium (Yarrow) will help to back up the health of the skin around the dog anal glands and helps for faster healing. Moreover, Silica is a organic solution excellent for assisting natural emptying of the dog anal sacs, also assisting to keep the anal channels open.

Ebony Stripped Cajon Drum
Mano MP-CAJ100-ES is an excellent entry level cajon drum that features a striped ebony head, a removable snare wire block, a foam pad seat cushion, and a padded carry bag with backpack straps.
The removable snare wire block makes it more versatile from a tone perspective than most cajons (especially in this price range), while the added accessories make it an exceptional value for money instrument.
About the Cajon Drum as An Instrument
A cajon is a box-shaped percussion instrument originally from Peru, played by slapping the front or rear faces with the hands, fingers, or sometimes various implements such as brushes, mallets, or sticks.
Cajones are primarily played in Afro-Peruvian music, as well as contemporary styles of flamenco and jazz among other genres.
These instruments can also be used in Latin American Music and Mexican folk music, and have had a major surge in popularity in recent years in almost all genres that play acoustic musical instruments due to the compact and portable nature of the instrument.
How to Use:
The player sits astride the box, tilting it at an angle while striking the head between their knees.
The percussionist can play the sides with the top of their palms and fingers for additional sounds.
The instrument can also be played with plastic and metal brushes, as used for drum kits.
Another way of playing the cajon is to use an ordinary bass drum pedal, thus turning the cajon into an indirect percussion instrument which can be played with the feet.
This enables the player to beat it just like a pedal-bass drum, thus leaving the hands (and one other foot) free to play other instruments.
On the other hand, it also restricts the player's standard cajon-playing position, as when the cajon is placed on the ground, in the bass drum location, it is hard for the performer to slap it with their hands.

Best fish restaurant in town.
As always, fresh fish deliciously prepared and served by competent and friendly staff. When I want to eat fish I go to Fishworks.
And this time even with 50% off our meal, simply fabulous!
Great food and service as usual.
The 50%off was a excellent bonus.
We are good back next week.
Enjoyed a great evening with great food and very friendly welcoming service
Great fish restaurant. Always good quality and a nice place to eat, with excellent service.
had the lobster, but for some reason it was very chewy rather then tender.
50% off. What's not to like.
It was the best food that I have had there. Superb
Lovely Birthday Lunch for my Son... All necessary precautions re Covid 19...
Unhurried and attentive service.
Will return and definitely recommend
Nice experience , interesting , fresh menu. Bit pricey, ( not for us as we went courtesy of Rishi Sunak!)Lovely, attentive staff.
Good place to have fresh fish.
Social distancing and hygiene was respected throughout.
I decided to come here after a friend recommended this place to me.
When I walked in I was greeted by the manager, really nice and friendly.
The staff were all smiles and working hard.
We were a group of 5.
The staff were also very attentive
The restaurant was nice and clean also.
We have a variety of seafood at our table and we all enjoyed every last bit.
We were even able to meet the chef who was as lovely as the food loool
I would definitely recommend to people who would like to go to a seafood restaurant in the city, friends and also family.
I would go back.
Thank you for a wonderful evening
Lovely place, heard from friends about it and wanted to go for a while. Attended with a friend, had the catch of the day Dover, which was really amazing. All fish was incredibly good, the quality is superb! The ambience is quite simple, nothing chic but I like modern style with nothing overboard. The prices are a bit high, for wine or for 3 prawns (£13) or 3 scallops (£11), but it’s good.
Excellent choice of food, beautifully presented. Careful social distancing regarding eating and all the waiters in masks.
I love fish but my boyfriend detests fish, so it was unusual to have lunch with my mother-in-Law at a fish restaurant! U had the seafood platter. The scallop was incredible, the sauce was sublime. The chili garlic prawns were delicious and the Sea Bream was so delicate and fresh. Now there is a discount, more than anything you MUST visit this fantastic place!
Lovely that Fishworks is back, the meal was delicious, the service was great, everything just as it should be. Love love love this place.
Great Restaurant. Staff incredibly polite and couldn't do more for you. Good portion sizes. Would highly recommend!
The staff were attentive and the food was delicious
Great and very fresh fish! Lovely atmosphere and very friendly staff!
We enjoyed our food and time there. I would say that the Only down side in our case was the service, the number of customers were very low though.
Really good meal and reasonable value for money. Would definitely go again.
Wonderful restaurant and fantastic customer service!
Great champers and 🦪 oysters! Amazing fish!!!! X
Overall was a good experience, food was delicious, although they didn’t have our first choice of mains neither did they have a 3 tier- seafood platter which we were looking forward to. Would recommend investing more in refurbishing the seating area as it feels like we are sitting in Bella Italia but paying Shard prices
The food was not good value for money as the portions were pretty small, the platter was disappointing and I felt like I had a £10 lobster, very underwhelming. The salad garnish on the side was dry and limp, I mean really what's the point!
Great food friendly staff. Thoroughly enjoyed the evening. Would definitely visit again. A must for sea food lovers.
overall it was such a lovely experience. I’d recommend it to anyone who enjoys fish & seafood.
The Fishworks I know and love, just with social distancing.
Had a great evening staff great very welcoming.our first outing since lockdown and was a delight, so good we booked to return next week 👍
Lovely end to an afternoon of Shopping in Covent Garden, cousins we have missed each other, evening was just lovely all round🥰
Food was tasty but very very small portions for the money we gave.
Good menu, especially the specials, quick service and the starters arrived very quickly; the scallops were fantastic.
The main courses were just as good together with the desserts.
Covid-19 precautions were very evident and cleaning protocols were being rigorously followed after each table finished.
The ‘intimate’ atmosphere was still there even with revised table positions.
All in all a lovely Saturday afternoon at Fishworks.
Food was amazing. Big up the chef
Great to be able to dine again after over 3 months. Greeted as old friends. Staff all taking appropriate precautions. Fish as fresh and well cooked as ever. Wonderful evening out. We will be back soon.
I have visited Fiushworks Marylebone on many occasions. For an excellent fish menu well priced its always my go to. My guest was very impresssedd and thanked me for introducing him to this great restaurant
Excellent food and Service.
Looking forward to our next visit.
Just gorgeous. We had the fish platter starter which had bits of all our favourite starters like salmon, mackerel, mackerel pate and then Cornish hake with champ mash plus sides of spinach and samphire etc. They had Ruinart Rose, our favourite champagne, so we had half a bottle of that to start the evening off followed by a bottle of Gavi. Lots of delicious flavours.
Once I had worked out you have to walk through the wet fish shop to get into the restaurant I was pleased to find a buzzing place with great garlicky wafts from the next table’s scallop dish.
We had the £18 two course prix fixe. My whitebait starter was great, and the cod and chips main course both large and outstanding. Really good quality fish, perfectly cooked. My choices might sound a bit “pub grub” but the menu had plenty of more sophisticated dishes.
Great value and highly recommended. Bought three kinds of oysters from the wet fish shop on the way out for a lovely supper at home.
I feel the menu needs updating, as it never seems to change.
Excellent service and delicious food!
Delicious, fresh food excellently cooked. Staff were accommodating and friendly, great service and didn’t rush us out of the restaurant, we were left to enjoy ourselves and our time at Fishworks, it was an all round excellent evening and dining experience.
Seafood sharer for two was enough also to have our daughter take a share from it.
Found wine and desserts a bit pricey.
Waitress could smile a bit more and keep a closer eye on tables towards the end of their meals, especially if with a sleeping child.

Key Jeremy Corbyn ally Clive Lewis quits the Shadow Cabinet over Labour leader's backing for Brexit
KEY JEREMY Corbyn ally Clive Lewis has stepped down from the shadow cabinet this evening in a dispute with the Labour leader over Brexit.
In a statement the Shadow Business Secretary confirmed he would no longer serve the hapless leftie saying he cannot "in all good conscience, vote for something I believe will ultimately harm the city I have the honour to represent".
Mr Corbyn issued a three-line whip, demanding his MPs back an Article 50 vote in Westminster this evening.
He said: “When I became the MP for Norwich South, I promised my constituents I would be ‘Norwich’s voice in Westminster, not Westminster’s voice in Norwich’.
"I therefore cannot, in all good conscience, vote for something I believe will ultimately harm the city I have the honour to represent, love and call home.
Pro-EU Tories rebelled against PM on key Brexit vote after insisting ministers went back on secret deal
Brexit bill set for final vote in House of Commons after MPs agreed to trigger Article 50
Corbyn forced to deny rumours he will step down over Brexit shambles and dire poll ratings
Jeremy Corbyn braced for rebellion as Brexit Bill set for final debate and vote today in the Commons
"It is therefore with a heavy heart that I have decided to resign from the shadow cabinet.
"It has been a privilege to work with Jeremy Corbyn and be part of the shadow cabinet.
"I will continue to support our party and our leader from the back benches to the very best of my ability."
Mr Lewis said last week he would vote against the European Union Bill at third reading if Labour amendments to safeguard against a "hard Brexit" were not passed.
And with the Bill coming through committee stage unamended, the senior frontbencher quit to vote against the Bill, which will allow Theresa May to begin withdrawal talks under Article 50 of the EU treaties.
After Mr Lewis resigned, bookmakers Ladbrokes made him favourite to be the next permanent Labour leader.
Born in London, he grew up in a single parent family on a Northampton council estate.
The former Army reservist served in Afghanistan for three months in 2009.
He once claimed his career as a political correspondent never took off because of racism.
But his former boss at BBC East hit back claiming he was removed from his job because he “didn’t know enough about politics”.
An outspoken socialist, Mr Lewis enjoys much support with the hard-left thanks to his steadfast support of Jeremy Corbyn and his views on nuclear weapons and immigration.
In a joint statement, Mr Corbyn said: "I would like to thank Clive for his work in the shadow cabinet, which has underlined what an asset he is to the Labour Party and our movement.
"I understand the difficulties MPs representing constituencies which voted Remain have in relation to the European Union Withdrawal Bill. MPs have a duty to represent their constituents as well as their party.
"However, the Labour Party respects the outcome of the EU referendum, so we have asked all Labour MPs to vote for the Bill at its third reading tonight.
"We have been clear from the start that Labour will not frustrate the triggering of Article 50, which represents the start of the process for leaving the EU.
"Labour will use every opportunity to hold the government to account and protect jobs, rights and living standards at every stage of the negotiations.
"I wish Clive well and look forward to working with him in the future."
Responding to Mr Lewis's resignation, a Conservative spokesman said: "This resignation shows that on Brexit, as with everything else, the Labour Party is hopelessly divided and can't even agree amongst themselves, let alone speak for ordinary working people."
The Labour crisis comes as Theresa May moved a step closer to triggering our EU exit, with the Government winning a series of 10 votes on the Brexit bill.
Plots by the opposition parties to try and amend the legislation all failed after a mammoth debate in the House of Commons.
The final vote, officially known as the ‘third reading’, was passed with a majority of 372, meaning the Article 50 bill now heads to the House of Lords.

Doug Levitt has been riding the bus for over ten years and does not show any signs of stopping in the near future. Even when his seat mate is a former Neo Nazi gentleman, who just got released from jail. Turns out his seat mate was a stand up guy who offered to split his food, and sit on the floor so Levitt could catch some sleep. More about Doug at https://soundcloud.com/doug-levitt
This has become one of the reasons why Doug Levitt still travels across the country and back. He likes having his finger on the pulse of America and considers his traveling, song writing and storytelling as a way of life now, not a project anymore.
Levitt, a former CNN foreign correspondent, started riding the bus as a job going from one undecided town to the next, trying to sway potential voters to register and vote for then Presidential candidate John Kerry. After the job was finished, Doug stayed on the bus meeting a cross section of the American public who are the working America so often misrepresented.
That is how The Greyhound Diaries were born. Levitt wanted to share the plight of every day Americans and spread awareness about the real economic state of America. He saw the economic crunch coming way before it arrived and predicted Trump would win the election a full year before the final vote.
Traveling and sharing stories with strangers has helped Levitt’s mental well being also. Doug has had some personal issues left over from when his dad committed suicide as Doug was entering his teen years. Talking about the trauma has been very cathartic for Doug. One could say there is a feeling of strangers helping strangers when personal stories are shared.

The heat shield kit is high temperature heat tape (1200 degree rated) intended to be applied to the interior of the Carbon Fiber tube. After full-auto 60 round mag dumps, the surface temperature of the Carbon Arms hanguards rise by only a few degrees with the heat sheild kit installed. It adds less than an ounce to the handguard. Can be used on other brands of free float tubes as well.
In our testing, we have found that radiation is the primary cause of heat build up in handguards, not convection. As such, the "ventilation" holes actually only serve to reduce the radiation target area of the handguard to the barrel while reducing overall rigidity. Monitoring barrel temperatures with ventilated and non-ventilated handguards reveals no significant change in barrel temperatures. While the JPRifles heat sink is a good accessory to reduce barrel temperatures, it does not significantly reduce heat gain to the handguard.
To install the heat shield, clean the interior of the tube with a damp cloth and let dry. If necessary, trim the heat tape for length and cut or slit holes for stud mounts. Peel the backing from one strip and lay inside the tube. Use a 1” hard dowel and roll on the tape from the interior. The three provided pieces do not need to touch or overlap at all.

LOS ANGELES - The LA Pride Parade made its way through Hollywood Sunday, highlighting the last day of this year's three-day Pride celebration.
The parade stepped off at 11 a.m. from Sunset Boulevard and Highland Avenue. Its route then moved north on Highland, east on Hollywood Boulevard and south on Cahuenga on the way to Sunset Boulevard.
Comedian Margaret Cho served as the "Icon Grand Marshal," honoring her years of anti-racism and anti-bullying advocacy and her support of LGBTQ+ rights, according to the Christopher Street West Association, which produces the LA Pride celebration.

The late actor Leslie Jordan, who died at age 67 in October when he suffered a heart attack while driving in Hollywood, was the "Legacy Grand Marshal," a new designation that will "posthumously celebrate those who have made an everlasting impact on the hearts and lives of our community," according to Christopher Street West. A group of Jordan's relatives and friends were riding in the parade in a custom vehicle.
"We are overjoyed by Christopher Street West's heartfelt recognition to name Leslie as LA Pride's Legacy Grand Marshal," Jordan's sister, Jana "Cricket" Jordan, said in a statement. "This honor further solidifies the positive impact he made in the world, but more importantly for the LGBTQ+ community. His spirit continues to bring love and light."
The ACLU of Southern California was chosen as the "Community Grand Marshal" for the parade to recognize its 100th anniversary "of fighting for LGBTQ+ civil rights." Organizers of LA Pride noted that the ACLU helped Christopher Street West sue the city in 1970 so it could obtain a parade permit for the first Pride Parade.
Singer-actress Janelle Monáe was among those joining the ACLU contingent in the parade.

Sunday's parade was followed by festivities at LA Pride Village along Hollywood Boulevard between Vine and Gower streets. The event included 90 vendors, two stages of live entertainment, food, drinks and more.
The village will stay open until 8 p.m.
On Saturday, Mariah Carey headlined day two of the two-day Pride in the Park festival at Los Angeles State Historic Park and later expressed her appreciation to the crowd.

"Thank you @lapride." Carey tweeted. "You were amazing!! I love you so much!!"
Carey's Saturday concert capped a day that also included performances from King Princess, Violet Chachki, Gottmik, Sasha Colby, Jenevieve, Vincint, Mad Tsai and Minke
"I'm thrilled and honored to be a part of LA Pride 2023," Carey said prior to performing. "I am happy to be back in person celebrating with the LGBTQIA+ community here in Southern California and throughout all of the lands. Let's come together to celebrate love, inclusion and Pride."
Pride in the Park began Friday with concert headliner Megan The Stallion and performances throughout the day and evening including Fletcher, Dorian Electra, Symone, Gigi Goode, The Scarlet Opera and G-Flip.
Gerald Garth, board president of LA Pride, characterized the two headliners as ideal for LA Pride.
"Mariah Carey and Megan Thee Stallion are the perfect artists to headline LA Pride in the Park this year as we expand to two days," he said in a statement when the performances were announced. "These empowering and iconic women are sure to take the stage by storm to celebrate the LGBTQIA+ community and will undoubtedly make this year's LA Pride in the Park an unforgettable experience."
The festival also included dozens of local vendors and LGBTQ+ exhibitors, bars, merchandise sales, food, an Erotic City for "the leather community" and an area for "the sober community."

Is Julio Cesar Chavez Jr. Still a Contender After Squeaking by Brian Vera?
Few would argue that Julio Cesar Chavez Jr. has advantages when it comes to a boxing career.
He’s got an athletic frame, can punch well with both hands and goes to the body like few fighters can. Oh, yeah, and he’s got some pretty famous bloodlines, too.
In the immediate aftermath of his unanimous-decision victory over Brian Vera on Saturday night in suburban Los Angeles, a lot more writers, fans and wannabe experts are likely to opine on the latter qualifications than the former—while claiming the victory was akin to paternal highway robbery.
For full disclosure, my scorecard gave six of 10 rounds to Vera. But unlike those others, I didn’t hold my nose and immediately dial up my congressman when Chavez’s hand was raised.
Judge 96-94 97-93 and 98-92 for Julio Cesar Chavez. BAD CALL OUCH #ChavezVera— Kevin Iole (@KevinI) September 29, 2013
It was a good, tough fight and could have gone either way. And when one guy lands 53 percent of his power punches—as even HBO’s perpetually indignant Jim Lampley conceded afterward—he makes a pretty strong case that he deserves to win. For me, that’s good enough.
Anyway, once the self-righteousness of the evening wears off, the post-mortem analysis will ultimately get to where it should have been from the start, on whether the sluggish 10-round effort against a handpicked six-loss opponent means Chavez’s non-surname gifts are still valuable.
The answer here, in spite of the damage of Saturday, is yes.
Whether you believe he deserved the nod against Vera or not, the reality of the night is that Chavez stepped into the ring for the first time in more than a year and went 10 hard rounds against a less skilled, but twice-as-determined opponent who made him work for each and every one of 30 minutes.
He did so after what even his biggest allies would label an “uninspired” training camp, one that resulted in a struggle to make weight even after the contracted agreement was amended 10 pounds north of its original 163. So, while he may not have professional courtesy, he does have heart.
And, though neither the crowd nor the announce team chose to dwell on it, the abrasions and lumps around Vera’s eyes indicated that Chavez did indeed have some good moments—proving that even a lazy, rusty version was good enough for an even scrap with the WBC’s No. 5 middleweight.
So, given what he was able to do against a decent foe with subpar preparation, it would seem what the kid needs more than anything is discipline. And whether he reunites with former trainer Freddie Roach or chooses another big name to lead his camp, Saturday’s remnants indicate success at 168 is hardly an impossible dream.
No oddsmakers worth their licenses would make him anything less than a solid favorite against WBC champion Sakio Bika or WBO titleholder Robert Stieglitz, either of whom would probably be thrilled to risk scorecard controversy to cash the check that sharing a marquee would yield.
A match with IBF champion Carl Froch, given the passion of his and Chavez’s fanbases, would be a huge attraction no matter where it was staged. And, given the in-shape Chavez’s predilection for fighters who willingly enter punching range, the fight itself wouldn’t be bad or unwinnable either.
Who won the fight?
The same holds true for names like Gennady Golovkin and Saul Alvarez, each of whom have been suggested as potential foils. A match with Chavez would represent a sizable jump in both quality and name for the streaking Kazakh, while a duel with “Canelo” could wake echoes of the 100,000-plus that Chavez’s old man drew to Mexico City during his glory days.
While no one asserts that Saturday was the kid’s finest (half) hour, it probably—once the ill will subsides—did little to impact his long-term outlook. And provided he gets back to work and avoids a technical virtuoso like Andre Ward, even the most critical of the night’s grenade-lobbers will ultimately give him a mulligan for bad behavior.
We should all have his job security after a lousy day at work.

Byrd embodies Audra McDonald in neighborhood concert
By Aanisah Husain
College Park resident Shelby Byrd performed her original program, “A My Name Is Audra,” on Sept. 18 as part of the College Park Arts Exchange’s (CPAE) Porch Play concert series. Byrd’s performance brought in an enthusiastic crowd of neighbors on a perfect fall afternoon in College Park Woods.
In her performance, Byrd explored the challenges of juggling “your art, your job and being a parent,” a story of her personal struggle that seemed to resonate with the audience. She named her piece for Audra McDonald, the Tony Award-winning actor and singer who is the only person to have won in all four of the award’s categories. Byrd admires McDonald and emulates her, in part because she thinks their voices are strikingly similar.
“It’s a way to share and practice my craft, give back to the neighborhood, give back to the community and have some fun,” said Byrd, of her participation in the concert series.
Melissa Sites, CPAE executive director, knew Byrd prior to the concert and was eager to promote her performance. The organization offered logistical and promotional support and loaned equipment to Byrd for the performance.
“[The arts exchange] is all about making people think about the possibilities for the arts in their own neighborhood. Our job is to say yes,” Sites said. “We just want to put the message out there that anyone in College Park who has any idea that is related to the arts, and they just don’t know how to get started … contact us, and we will help make it fly.”
Bonnie McClellan hosted the concert not on a porch but in front of her garage. She said that the concerts serve as a reminder that “life is good. That people care about one another … It also supports the arts. We all love music and are happy to support Shelby.”
McClellan truly enjoyed working with Byrd and described her as “easy, fun, exciting. She’s very high energy. She’s delightful.”
Byrd, who is from Arlington, Va., was an only child, and said this fed her love of the arts.
“I was my own playmate,” she said. “It was basically me and my imagination.”
Byrd relied on that imagination, as well as her clear vocal abilities, to carry her through school and into performing. By day, she works in the University of Maryland’s human resources department; by night, she takes to the stage as often as she can.
“The arts is a crucial outlet for people who need to find their voice, who need to find their place, their talent, their will to pursue … and to find their strength and to find their community.”

This afternoon, Rutgers announced that they will host a charity exhibition game with St. John’s that will take place at the RAC on Sunday, November 5th at 1 p.m. All net proceeds from this event will be donated to American Red Cross Disaster Relief. The two schools received a waiver from the NCAA in order to have this exhibition.
"This is a tremendous opportunity to support a very important cause through the game of basketball," said Rutgers head coach Steve Pikiell. "We are proud to come together as a basketball community and assist the American Red Cross with its disaster relief efforts."
Additional info from the press release:
Tickets for the game are $10, with general admission seating to be employed. Admission is free for Rutgers students. Floor seating is reserved for current men's basketball floor seat holders, who will be emailed further information.
A $10 parking fee will be collected for vehicles accessing the green and yellow lots. The scarlet lot on the south side of the RAC is closed due to construction of the RWJ Barnabas Health Athletic Performance Center at Rutgers University.
Tickets are available online now and by calling at 1-866-445-GORU (4678). Tickets will also be available on gameday at the Rutgers Athletics Ticket Office, located at the RAC.
Net proceeds will be derived from admission and parking fees, concessions and merchandise sales. For additional information on American Red Cross Disaster Relief, visit redcross.org.
Exhibitions for disaster relief resulting from multiple hurricanes this fall around the country have been scheduled throughout college basketball this fall. Kansas and Missouri just raised 1.75 million dollars last weekend. UConn and Providence are hosting one tonight at the Mohegan Sun. LSU and Tulane, Marquette and UW-Milwaukee, as well as Virginia Tech and South Carolina are other notable exhibitions taking place.
Rutgers is 14-27 all-time against St. John’s. The two programs had some classic battles in the late seventies, including the 1978 Holiday Festival, and were conference foes in the Big East from 1995 to 2013. They last met as part of the Gavitt Games played between the Big East and Big Ten in December 2015, when Rutgers blew a 12 point lead and lost 61-59 in Jamaica, Queens.
The most infamous moment in this series was the Big East Tournament game in 2011, when one of the most egregious errors ever made by an officiating crew in a college basketball game took place. Rutgers was robbed of an additional possession down by 2 points in the closing seconds of the second round game. Justin Brownlee of St. John’s started celebrating before the final buzzer, traveling in the process and stepping out of bounds with 1.7 seconds remaining. He threw the ball in the crowd and officials Tim Higgins, Jim Burr, and Earl Walton walked off the court. They ended up withdrawing from officiating the rest of the Big East Tournament after they endured heavy scrutiny. Of course, that was too little, too late for Rutgers.
The heartbreaking loss for Rutgers did lead to one positive, as it led to one of the best all-time rants from WFAN’s Mike Francesa, who has had plenty of classic flip outs over the years.
As for the November 5th exhibition, it’s great to see both program’s getting together for an important cause like this. It will also serve as great preparation for the beginning of the season for Rutgers, who open the season at home on November 10th against CCNY. St. John’s was picked to finish sixth in the Big East this year in head coach Chris Mullin’s third season and will provide a strong test for Rutgers.
