In 1941, World War II was in full swing. Thanks to its oil reserves, Iran was a key piece on the geopolitical chessboard. Reza Shah Pahlavi was in-charge as an absolutist ruler. The British had backed his rise but were uncomfortable with his flirtations with Nazi Germany. In 1941, the British decided to get rid of Reza Shah and install his son Mohammad Reza Shah. He was a weak 22-year-old who was putty in British hands. His rise to power had a silver lining though.
From 1941 to 1953, Iran experienced a golden period of freedom. During this era, seven political parties emerged in the Iranian parliament Majles. Mohammad Mosaddegh emerged as the most important leader during this period. He became prime minister in 1951 and initiated significant reforms.
Before 1941, Reza Shah ruled Iran with an iron hand. If people dared to protest, they were shot on the spot or tortured to death or whisked away to a brutal prison. From 1941 to 1953, free speech, democracy and rule of law emerged in Iran. Mosaddegh was a key figure in democratizing Iran.
The Brief Story of Iranian Democracy
Educated in France and Switzerland, Mosaddegh came from a patrician family. However, he was a reformer who believed in democracy. In 1925, Mosaddegh voted against Reza Khan taking over as the Shah. Once in power as Reza Shah, the monarch exiled him from public office. With Reza Shah out of power in 1941, Mosaddegh emerged from the shadows to play a key role in Iranian history.
In 1944, Mosaddegh was re-elected to the Iranian parliament, the Majles. As a patriot, he wanted a strong Iran. Mosaddegh aimed to build an Iran with rule of law, freedom of religion, freedom of expression, parliamentary democracy and a strong economy. Above all, this Iranian leader opposed foreign interference in the internal affairs of Iran. In particular, he did not want the British to exploit Iranian oil for London’s imperial benefit. He was also against concessions to the Soviets in northern Iran.
Mohammad Reza, the new Shah, and Iran’s comprador elite were beholden to the British for their hold on power. So, they did not take kindly to the rise of Mosaddegh. This corrupt and absolutist elite was also against democracy because they would have lost power. They tried the age old trick of rigging elections.
As a result, protests erupted in 1949. People came out into the streets to rally against voter fraud. Mosaddegh led a group of delegates to the Shah’s to protest the “lack of free elections.” That forced Mohammad Reza to promise “fair and honest” elections. Mosaddegh and some other leaders founded a party named Jebhe Melli, which literally translates to National Front, to contest the elections.
Once the Majles convened after the elections, Mossadegh emerged as the most powerful parliamentarian. As leader of Jebhe Melli, Mossadegh pushed for major reforms. The Majles approved a development plan with agricultural and industrial reforms. The plan required financing, which was only possible through oil revenues. Sadly for Iran, most of these revenues were going to Britain.
Oil Catches Fire
Unsurprisingly, oil revenues were a hot button issue in the 1949 elections. Once the Majles assembled, many of its members were duty bound to renegotiate the patently unfair agreement imperial Britain had forced a subservient Iran to conclude. In the words of the fictional character Michael Corleone, made famous by the 1972 movie The Godfather, the British had made the Iranians an offer they couldn’t refuse. Led by Mosaddegh, Iranians now mustered the gumption to reject that British offer.
Mosaddegh promised to end the British control of Iran’s oil industry. He demanded renegotiation with the Anglo-Iranian Oil Company (AIOC), the British oil giant now known as BP. Note that the AIOC was supposed to pay a mere 17.5% of oil revenues to Iran. In contrast, its American counterpart was paying Saudi Arabia 50% of oil revenues in 1950. To rub salt in Iranian wounds, AIOC practiced creative accounting and did not even pay the 17.5% it owed Iran. In fact, they paid more in taxes to London on their profits from Iranian oil than to Tehran. Led by Mosaddegh, Iranian patriots resolved to get Iran’s fair share from AIOC.
Iranian pressure made the British offer slightly better terms in 1950. Mosaddegh was key in rejecting this unfair offer and demanded a 50-50 split, the same enjoyed by Saudi Arabia. Naturally, the British opposed Mosaddegh tooth and nail. They claimed that revision of their agreement with Iran would amount to a breach of contract. The British very conveniently ignored their own common law idea of duress as grounds for invalidating a contract. Simply put: if Winston puts a gun to Rumi’s head to get his signature on a contract, that legal document is null and void. Such legal principles were moot for AIOC, which tried every trick in the book to safeguard its extortionate illegitimate profits.
British intransigence fueled Iranian patriotism on oil revenues. The public swung behind nationalization of AIOC. By the time the British belatedly agreed to a 50-50 split in February 1951, the ship for renegotiation had sailed. In March, the Majles passed legislation to nationalize the oil industry. True to form, the Shah did not sign this bill. This British lackey stayed loyal to his imperial masters, not the Iranian people.
By not signing the nationalization bill, the Shah frustrated the Majles and the Iranian people. In April, the Majles made Mosaddegh prime minister, with around 90% voting for him. A few months earlier, Mosaddegh had turned down the prime ministerial position. This time, he took charge with a single-point agenda: cut out foreign powers from Iran’s oil industry.
With Mosaddegh in-charge, the Shah reluctantly signed the nationalization bill. This dramatically changed Britain-Iran dynamics. The AIOC left Iran, dismantling even the massive Abadan Refinery and associated facilities. For the first time in two centuries, Britain was on the backfoot. Unsurprisingly, this mighty imperial power fought back. It went to the International Court of Justice (ICJ) to appeal against Iranian nationalization. Mosaddegh cannily disputed the court’s jurisdiction. Months later, the ICJ decided in favor of Iran.
The Empire Strikes Back
The British did not just resort to legal measures though. Their fabled intelligence agencies started conspiring to oust Mosaddegh through hook or crook. The British courted American support to do so. Their task was not easy. After World War II, the US had been siding with Iran on the oil issue. It had its own strategic interest to break into the Iranian oil market. Mosaddegh was well aware of the importance of the US. In November 1951, the Iranian prime minister visited Washington to meet President Harry Truman. Mosaddegh had a good reception and returned to Iran positive that the US would act as an honest mediator between Iran and Britain.
Mosaddegh’s successful US trip and rising international popularity unsettled the Shah. Vainglorious and insecure, the Shah resented Mosaddegh. When the prime minister appointed a minister of war, the Shah vetoed him. In response, Mosaddegh resigned.
This act in July 1952 led countrywide protests. People poured into the streets, chanting “Give me death or give me Mosaddegh.” Hasht Subh, a leading Iranian newspaper, published the headline: “Salaam to Hero Mosaddegh, We Swear That We Stand by You to Our Death.” In keeping with the tradition established by his brutal father, the Shah ordered a crackdown. On July 21 — 30 Tir in the Iranian calendar — the Shah’s forces killed hundreds of people. This bloody day in 1952 is still remembered as the 30 Tir Uprising.
The very next day, on July 22, the ICJ decided in favor of Iran. This fueled popular support for Mosaddegh. Despite his brutal actions, the Shah was unable to establish control over Iran. He was forced to recall Mosaddegh. The Majles now firmly backed the prime minister. Iranians were euphoric. They believed that they could now move forward towards a new future.
The British had other plans. They refused to accept the ICJ decision. They saw Iranian insubordination as a danger to the British Empire and imposed a worldwide embargo against Iranian oil. They froze Iranian assets and banned exports of all goods to Iran. Britain acted against Iran in much the same way as the US is doing today. Like the US today, Britain planned a regime change in Tehran: Mosaddegh had to go.
British covert operations against Mosaddegh were savage and sophisticated. Misinformation, bribery, blackmail, murder and riots were all part of the toolkit. On April 20, 1953, news broke out that General Mahmood Afshar Tus, Mosaddegh’s chief of police, had been kidnapped and killed. Investigations revealed that generals sidelined by Mosaddegh were responsible for this brutal killing.
By now, the British had Americans on their side. The zeitgeist in the US had changed. Dwight D. Eisenhower was president, Richard Nixon was vice president and Joseph McCarthy was the most powerful voice on Capitol Hill. McCarthy saw a communist under every bush and feared the Soviet Union would take over the world. The British found US paranoia against communism fertile ground to sow seeds of doubt about Mosaddegh. Bit by bit, they convinced Washington to join them in their conspiracy to overthrow Mosaddegh.
British and American efforts in weaning support away from Mosaddegh in the Majles forced the prime minister’s hand. Mosaddegh asked the Shah to dissolve the Majles. Now both a British and an American lackey, this weak ruler declined. Mosaddegh called for a referendum on the dissolution of the Majles. Over 99% of Iranian voters supported him. On August 15, 1953, Mossadegh dissolved the Majles.
This proved to be the highpoint of Mossadegh’s power. Events would soon overwhelm him. His political enemies were now conspiring with the British and the Americans to get rid of him. Yet Mosaddegh had changed history. He had challenged autocratic rule at home and deepened democracy. At the same time, he had taken on imperial powers and won back Iranian sovereignty.
Why Mosaddegh Matters
Mosaddegh was a great statesman. He was honest, hardworking, idealistic and resolute. He made immense personal sacrifices in his political life. Mosaddegh steered Iran in a new direction despite the odds. In 27 months as prime minister, he achieved more than any other Iranian leader in the last two centuries.
In the land of absolutist Shahs, Mosaddegh championed rule of law, creating an independent judiciary to check the powers of the executive. Mosaddegh also supported freedom of expression, freedom of the press and freedom of religion. An ardent democrat, he tried to increase political participation and organize free elections.
Mosaddegh’s economic reforms were significant and are often overlooked. A frugal man, he balanced the budget and focused on increasing Iran’s economic output. The tiff with the British was as much about economics as politics. Mosaddegh invested in health, unemployment insurance and infrastructure. Unlike the Shah who believed in ostentatious consumption, Mosaddegh was a believer in long term investments that would have a major multiplier effect.
Mosaddegh curtailed the culture of corruption fostered by the Shahs. He removed corrupt ministers and appointed honest ones. He got rid of generals who served British interests. He redistributed lands illegally seized by Reza Shah.
One of Mosaddegh’s last attempts in power was to give women the right to vote in municipal councils. He also wanted to provide women maternity leaves and give them the same rights as men in social insurance, benefit, and disability allowances. He had little success but that was not for lack of trying.
In 1952, Mosaddegh was named Time Magazine’s Man of the Year. As American media often does, they painted this unfamiliar foreign figure as a villain. In contrast, Mosaddegh was hailed in colonies and newly independent colonies. In Yugoslavia, Egypt and India, he was hailed as a liberating hero. Remember, this was a time when almost all of Africa was still under European rule and the US still practiced race segregation. In his far-sighted reforms, Mosaddegh was far ahead of his time. Noted American diplomat Henry F. Grady called Mosaddegh “a man of great intelligence, wit and education—a cultured Persian gentleman.” To Grady, the Iranian leader reminded him “of the late Mahatma Gandhi.”

Sheridan chiropractor and landlord Douglas Willemin has been trying for several months to convince the council to approve the installation of meters — at the village’s expense — at one or more of the apartment buildings he owns in town. His current water rates, he contends, are far greater than the actual usage at his properties.

According to John Morgan, an attorney for the victims, a fight broke out at a house party in Apopka, Fla., on Feb. 27, following an incident earlier in the evening at the Blue Jeans Lounge. It was at the lounge where Meriweather’s friend allegedly assaulted a woman.
Morgan explained to Deadspin that the woman’s brother arrived to the party, where he “got the better of” Meriweather’s friend in a fight, according to the report, which added: “That’s when Meriweather allegedly pulled out his gun and fired at the brother, grazing the man’s face and hitting the other victim in the head, according to Morgan.”
“He’s extremely lucky to be alive,” Morgan said of the alleged victim.
Florida radio personality Dan Sileo was one of the first to report the accusations via Twitter.
No arrests have been made.
“We are aware of the reported allegation, but do not have any additional information,” the Patriots said in a statement.

The Loxley luxury apartment project offers a unique opportunity for a “savvy” developer to begin immediate construction
in Central Takapuna – the current hotspot for intensive residential development.
Located on a site for sale minutes from Central Takapuna and Takapuna Beach, The Loxley complex will treat residents
with sweeping views, high-end interior finishes and a private rooftop garden – plus immediate access to all that
Resource consent and building consent approvals are already in place to deliver 47 luxury units on the site at 32-34
Tennyson Avenue – in what a real estate representative has dubbed a “plug-and-play” opportunity for a developer seeking
to capitalise on the current housing market strength.
Michael Nees of Bayleys North Shore said The Loxley would consist of two five-storey apartment buildings connected by
pedestrian bridges, with a single basement car park level. The planned complex lies in the heart of one of Auckland’s
premium apartment development locations, he said.
“Takapuna’s fundamentals underpin the value of the Tennyson Avenue site for sale and the potential success of an ensuing
sell-down of apartment units. There are multiple comparable builds completed and sold in the immediate vicinity and
several more are now selling successfully off the plans,” said Mr Nees.
The site at 32-34 Tennyson Avenue, Takapuna, is now being marketed for sale by way of deadline private treaty closing on
25 March (unless sold prior), through Bayleys North Shore.
Salespeople Michael Nees, Damian Stephen and Michael Su said the site consisted of an approximately 1,872-square metre
landholding across three titles.
Mr Nees said the land housed three existing dwellings – one of which was now configured and consented as a showroom.
Together these offered a potential holding income of over $3,000 per week.
“With resource and building consents in place, a body corporate established, sale-and-purchase agreements drafted and
approved for the sell-down of units, and a marketing website up and running, all of the early work has been done and
significant risk has been eliminated for a developer,” Mr Nees said.
“The building consent approval, in particular, provides the project with planning certainty and will help to streamline
project timelines – eliminating the need for various assumptions, delays and costs.”
Mr Stephen said the 47 consented residential units comprised 10 one-bedroom, 18 two-bedroom and 19 three-bedroom
In total there are 43 car parking spaces, with the six largest units allocated two parks each and 31 units allocated one
park each. There is also additional parking for bicycles.
A rooftop garden on the rear building is designed to accommodate large groups for the exclusive use of residents. This
will feature multiple communal barbecue and seating areas, and sweeping views from the Bayswater Marina to downtown
Designed for expected owner-occupancy, light and views have been a priority in the Loxley. Splitting the floor plate
into two buildings results in 40 of the 47 apartments enjoying a corner perspective with two exterior walls.
“Many of the apartments offer expansive views of Waitemata Harbour and the Auckland CBD or residential Takapuna, while
most of the ground floor units have private landscaped courtyards,” said Mr Stephen.
Mr Su said a flurry of recent successful apartment projects reflected Takapuna’s status as “one of the big winners” from
the zoning shake-up under the Auckland Unitary Plan and a desirable place to live.
“The Unitary Plan now puts a strong focus on key commercial and residential centres, with a framework of intensive
zoning and building key transport infrastructure around it,” said Mr Su.
“Central Takapuna was rezoned Metropolitan Centre, the most intensive zoning outside the CBD, while the periphery of the
centre – including the Tennyson Avenue Site – is now zoned Residential-Terrace Housing and Apartment Buildings.”
Mr Su said the site’s zoning provided for the greatest density, height and scale of development of all the purely
“This zoning overhaul has helped lead to an abundance of new apartment projects being consented, sold and built and
these are establishing Takapuna as a premier destination for intensive residential development – and the area’s natural
resources help to make it a premium location for people to live.”
Mr Su said a number of projects had been successfully built and sold down in more challenging markets prior to 2020,
demonstrating the demand for this type of product in Takapuna. These included The Alba complex in Auburn Street, the
Sargeson on Anzac Street, Eight Lake Pupuke on Lake Pupuke Drive and the Lakeview development on Killarney Street.
“Two other developments on Esmonde Road, the Sky Ridge and Amaia complexes, are now successfully selling off the plans
but have not begun construction – illustrating the current gap in the market to be seized,” said Mr Su.
“Developers will best understand the unique advantage a 100 percent shovel-ready project offers at the Loxley.”

Health Benefits of Fennel
A versatile vegetable known for its characteristic licorice and anise flavors, fennel has been revered since ancient times as a powerful all-purpose remedy. The Chinese used fennel for its purported anti-venomous properties against snake bites and scorpions, while Europeans in the Middle Ages utilized fennel seeds in amulets to shield from witchcraft. Though warding off witches and poisonous critters isn’t among our pressing concerns in modern times, fennel has been shown to provide protection against a multitude of today’s common diseases and discomforts.
Fennel is notable for its edibility: the white or pale green bulb, sturdy stalks and aromatic seeds all may be eaten and lend themselves to unique preparations. In India, Asia and South America, fennel seeds are commonly chewed after a meal to refresh the breath and ease digestion. In Italy, the seeds find their way into sausages and tomato sauces, while bulbs and stalks are braised for seafood dishes or julienned for salads. There is also a long history of brewing herbal tea from fennel seeds in many cultures.
No matter which part of the fennel plant you choose, you will benefit from anethole, the primary component of fennel’s essential oil that lends the anise-like taste. In animal studies, anethole has been shown to reduce inflammation, prevent cancer and protect the liver from toxic chemical injury. This phytonutrient also inhibits spasms of the smooth muscles, including those in the intestinal tract. As a result, fennel is known to relax the gut and relieve abdominal pain, acid indigestion, bloating and gas. It is especially effective for babies with colic.
Full of Vitamins
Fennel promotes a healthy immune system with a nexus of vitamins, minerals and antioxidants. It is an excellent source of vitamin C, which has antimicrobial properties, and potassium, which guards against stroke. Fennel’s multiple flavonoids also provide robust antioxidant activity. The vegetable’s peak season is from September to February, which makes it an ideal antidote to winter colds and flu. It has been shown to alleviate symptoms of upper respiratory infections including whooping cough and bronchitis.
Women may find fennel particularly helpful for a variety of feminine health concerns. Its antispasmodic properties can relieve menstrual cramps. For women who are nursing, fennel is believed to increase breast milk secretion. The vegetable is also thought to help regulate hormonal change and may boost estrogen production during menopause.
Food of the Gods
With such a range of health advantages and a distinctive taste, it’s no wonder that in Greek mythology fennel was closely associated with Dionysus, the god of food and wine. Celebrate this ambrosia by adding roasted fennel to your meal or warming a cup of fennel tea. You’re bound to be invincible against upset stomachs, cold weather illness or any “bad spells” that may come your way.

AS the toll from the Covid-19 pandemic increases on a day-to-day basis workers clear space to add 400 graves to the Indian capital’s oldest functioning cemetery.
On Tuesday(6) workers cleared undergrowth from wasteland beside the ruins of historic city walls in the Islamic graveyard of Jadid Qabristan in Delhi.
India’s total coronavirus cases rose by 61,267 in the last 24 hours to 6.69 million on Tuesday, data from the health ministry showed.
Deaths from Covid-19 infections rose by 884 to 103,569, the ministry said.
India’s death toll from the novel coronavirus rose past 100,000 on Saturday(3), only the third country in the world to reach that bleak milestone, after the US and Brazil, and its epidemic shows no sign of abating.
Since its first virus burial in April, the Jadid Qabristan has seen more than 700 funerals on a patch of adjoining wasteground designated for pandemic victims.
“We weren’t expecting that we will have to clear more land for the graves,” said head gravedigger Mohammad Shameem, a 38-year-old in a pale green traditional tunic, who is the third generation of his family to work in cemeteries.
“But bodies just keep arriving.”
A respite in infections has cut virus burials to about four a day, from 10 in the summer, but Shameem said the graveyard, founded in 1924, would soon be at capacity.
“The way things are moving, I think we will clear the last remaining patch of land for graves in the coming months.”
Hindus, who make up the majority of India’s population of about 1.3 billion, are typically cremated after death, but its estimated 200 million Muslims typically bury their dead.
Like the workers at a nearby crematorium for Hindus, Shameem said he often faced difficult conditions.
“We are doing so much work for the last eight months, but there has been hardly any help from the government, in terms of personal protective equipment,” he said.

The ever growing Professor!Tuesday, September 28, 2010
He is getting so big. I can't believe this is the same sickly little kitten we rescued just over two months ago. I don't realize how much he's growing until I look at pictures. His legs look too tall for his body, it makes him walk super cute. He's gained 4.2 pounds since his first vet visit. and he just got his last set of shots including rabies and will get neutered in November.
He still has his same bad habits (trying to get in the fridge, sleeping in the clean laundry basket) and developed a ridiculously dangerous one too. He tries to get into the oven...while it's on! When I open it to get out my baked goods that little kitty comes running! Everything involving the oven is now done with haste and one foot out to push him away.
He likes boxes and baskets, just like the other kitties in the house. He still loves cuddling and absolutely loves to rub his little wet nose all over my face. He is the biggest cuddlebug I've ever met. This morning I woke up with him on my neck like a scarf. He is still having issues with knowing when to quit playing. Even when Leaf is hissing, growling, and biting at him, RayRay still continues to chase him, and try to play. He also has a slight attitude problem. "Professor, stop it" usually gets the response "mew mew squeak", he always responds when you talk to him. Sometimes it just sounds like he's being mean, like when you scold him, but it's so stinken adorable you can't be mad!

Posted by Immigration Attorneys at Alcock & Associates.
About 100 protesters gathered Friday afternoon outside the offices of Maricopa County Sheriff Joe Arpaio, to protest the death of Ernest Atencio at Arpaio’s 4th Avenue Jail in Phoenix, Arizona.
This latest protest was convened by the PUENTE Movement, an Arizona-based immigrant rights group, in the wake of public outrage over surveillance videos that show deputies beating and using a Taser gun on Atencio on December 16, 2011. Phoenix police officers struggled with Atencio in the booking area at 4thAvenue Jail and Maricopa County Sheriff’s deputies joined in. A hospital report stated that Atencio was stunned six times with a Taser and then left naked in a safe cell. The PUENTE group is just one organization holding Arpaio accountable for the death of Atencio, which is under investigation by the Maricopa County Sheriff’s office.
Carlos Garcia, an organizer for PUENTE, said “We want him behind bars.” Garcia recalled the recent Department of Justice report that alleged Arpaio racially profiles Latinos and bases immigration enforcement on racially charged citizen complaints. The Department of Justice still has an ongoing investigation into the excessive use of force inside Arpaio’s jails. Arpaio is also under the scrutiny of a criminal grand jury for abuse of power and retaliation against political enemies.
In addition to requesting Arpaio’s arrest for the murder of Atencio, Garcia called for Arpaio’s outdoor jails, the infamous “Tent City”, to be shut down, and for law-enforcement agencies to stop working with Arpaio’s office. Arpaio’s agency has also been scrutinized recently for hundreds of sex crimes that were not investigated by the Maricopa County Sheriff’s office.
Arpaio denies the allegations made by the Department of Justice and says the civil rights investigation was politically motivated. The sheriff has made no comment about the Atencio incident, and called Friday’s protest “disgraceful” and a “despicable action by pro illegal immigrant group” in a message posted to his Twitter account. Generally speaking, immigration attorneys concur that Arpaio’s actions are beyond the pale.
PUENTE and other groups, such as Citizens for a Better Arizona, have been applying pressure on the Maricopa County Board of Supervisors to hold America’s self-proclaimed “toughest sheriff” accountable. PUENTE organizers will continue to hold bi-monthly rallies until the sheriff is “brought to justice” according to a news release.

A furry mountain rodent, known as the American pika, has disappeared from a large stretch of habitat in North Lake Tahoe, the largest pika die-off in the modern age, according to UC Santa Cruz scientists.
A study published in PLOS One in August outlines the findings of a six-year, and ultimately unsuccessful, search for the high-elevation rodents in a 165-square-mile area of the Sierra Nevada. Lake Tahoe, the Truckee River and Californai Highway 267 bound this roughly triangular zone surrounding Mount Pluto.
The research team, led by biologist Joseph Stewart, began monitoring the area when the pika was petitioned for listing under the California and federal endangered species acts.
“When we found old pika poop in every talus field that we looked at along the Truckee River, which is super low elevation, we started scratching our heads. If there is old pika poop here, where did the pikas go? Are they at higher elevations?” Stewart said. “The next six years we surveyed at progressively higher and higher elevations until we realized that, oh my god, pikas are extinct from this whole huge area.”
The pika is a hamster-sized relative of the rabbit, which has adapted to surviving in cold, snowy winters. During the summer months they move between rocky fields and meadows, stocking their dens with grass and other plants.
“There are thermal physiological studies that show their upper critical limit is only 3 degrees celsius above their resting body temperature. So, they are very well adapted to surviving under the snow in the wintertime. Unlike otaher species at high elevations, like marmots and other species that live in their environment, pikas don’t hibernate,”…

Congressman Bill Johnson held a town hall today in Marietta about the Affordable Care Act.
There is concern from the healthcare industry, and people wondering what it'll cost them.
Congressman Johnson was joined by Tennessee Congressman Phil Roe, at the Heartland of Marietta, in Devola.
They spoke with local hospital employees, doctors and nurses to try and understand what this new health care policy means.
Congressmen Johnson says the public needs to speak up and ask questions because this will negatively effect everyone, young and old.
"People need to continue to let their representatives in Washington know how this is effecting them. Right now, they got more questions though, then they have opinions, because nobody can seem to tell them because we don't even know, because the rules aren't out yet," said Congressman Bill Johnson.
Congressman Johnson's opponent, Democrat Jennifer Garrison, offered this statement in response.
"The reason why people are so angry with the gang in Washington is that they're posturing and showboating instead of compromising to get things done. I'm glad that insurance companies can't discriminate anymore, against families in Ohio who have a child with a pre-existing condition. But we should take steps to help small businesses in our area who may be squeezed by this new law. Let's figure out how we can fix the problem instead of trying to score political points."

News Creepy New ‘IT’ Trailer: Pennywise Relentlessly Torments the Losers’ Club! Published 1 year ago on July 27, 2017 By Nick Bond Share Tweet We’ve all been waiting in anticipation since the San Diego Comic Con to get another peak at Bill Skarsgard in action as our new Pennywise, and today we finally have a brand new trailer for Andy Muschietti’s IT adaptation. In the new trailer, we hear Pennywise talk for the very first time, extending his hand to Georgie. “Here… Take it …” The clown says.

I was trying to update the firmware but when I compiled the program it was giving a bunch of ' 'xyz' not declared in this scope' errors. I'm not sure if I'm missing any files but I added the DS3231 and Time libraries that were included in the github download.
In general, the libraries have to be in the right place, and that depends on the OS you are using. There's a great HowTo here:
and especially look at the "Manual Installation" section.
If you are really adventurous, you might want to look at the Git master, where all the weird stuff goes on (a bit quiet at the moment, but it will liven up again soon):

Tomorrow will mark a major step forward in the implementation of Alaska’s marijuana legalization law, as personal cultivation, possession, and consumption become legal. Last November, Alaskans voted 53-47% in favor of marijuana legalization, making it the first “red” state to pass such a law.
“First Colorado and Washington, now Alaska and Oregon – and all with levels of support higher than the winning candidates for governor and U.S. Senate achieved in those states,” said Ethan Nadelmann, executive director of the Drug Policy Alliance. “Legalizing marijuana just makes sense now to voters across the political spectrum and – as we’ll likely see in 2016 – across the country.”
Starting tomorrow, it will be legal for someone 21 years of age or over to possess up to an ounce of marijuana, grow up to six marijuana plants in their homes (provided that only three of them are mature at any time), and to share up to 1 ounce of marijuana with someone 21 or over and give them up to six immature marijuana plants. Private consumption will be completely legal for those 21 and over, though public consumption remains illegal.
Commercial marijuana businesses that grow, process, bake, or sell marijuana products won’t be able to legally operate until spring or summer of 2016. In January, the Alaska legislature began working to bring existing criminal statutes into line with the voter initiative. Tuesday marks the beginning of a nine-month rulemaking process during which the regulations for marijuana businesses will be developed and refined. Under the provisions of the voter initiative, the state is expected to begin accepting applications for operating permits by February 2016, a full year from now. This timeline was clearly defined in the voter initiative and, so far, the process is on schedule.
Alaska’s new law is expected to increase law enforcement resources available to focus on dangerous and violent crime. Once retail sales begin next year, the law is also expected to bolster the state’s economy by creating jobs and generating new revenue, as marijuana sales will be conducted by legitimate, tax-paying businesses that test their products and require proof of age.
November’s election solidified drug policy reform’s place as a mainstream political issue, as voters across the country accelerated the unprecedented momentum to legalize marijuana and end the wider drug war. Marijuana legalization measures passed in Alaska, Oregon, and Washington, D.C., while groundbreaking criminal justice reforms passed in California and New Jersey. These successes are boosting efforts already underway in California, Massachusetts, Vermont, Rhode Island, Maine, Nevada, Arizona and elsewhere to end marijuana prohibition.

What’s the best way to save money on the food budget? With food being one of the largest parts of the food budget, we often struggle with how to make cuts without feeling like you’re not feeding yourself or your family properly. This is definitely not the case and I have proved it in my $100 Cheap Food Challenge I wrote about. This case study does some quick interviews with people to discover that, not only do people have no clue how much they spend each month on food, they think it’s impossible to survive on just $100 per person per month. Now, granted, it is more difficult to live on $100 per month when it’s just one person, but it gets easier as you add more to the household. If you have five members of the family that you’re feeding, it’s easier to limit your food spending to $500 than for the single person to keep it under $100.
While it’s not easy to change your habits, it is easy to reduce the cost of food for the month by following a few simple guidelines. These guidelines aren’t going to suggest you eat off of the dollar menu at fast food restaurants or simply eat rice and beans or Ramen noodles. While those foods are in fact cheap, they end up being expensive in the long run when considering how unhealthy you’ll become and have to pay more for doctors, prescriptions, etc. So remember, just because it’s cheap now doesn’t mean it’s the most cost effective way to eat and live long term.
Most people look at the way they eat as a necessity in life, but it’s amazing how much you can save if you plan, eat the proper diet and take the time to cook at home. The choices you make at the grocery store or convenience store (*gasp!) really affects your budget, even if it’s just $10 at a time. Let’s take a look at the suggestions Cheap Food Here has put together since being on their mission to eat creatively on a modest budget.
1. Don’t eat out!
Believe it or not, eating out is the fastest way to blow through your food budget. It may seem convenient and delicious and trump anything you could make yourself at home, but it’s amazing how much you can save by staying out of restaurants. If you do decide that taking a break from cooking is a must, do it sparingly and don’t order drinks if you can help it. Drinks end up costing as much or more than an extra entree.
Another way to save money is to share an appetizer and an entree. Typically that is more than enough food to satisfy you and you’ve saved the loot from the extra box of carry-out you would have let go bad in the fridge later that week.
2. Ditch the bottled drinks
It goes without saying that you should already ditch the smoking habit if not for the health concerns but for the cost. But in comparison, drinking soft drinks or bottled juices, waters, etc are driving your food budget through the roof! Not only are most bottled drinks unhealthy, they are extremely expensive.
The sale of bottled water dropped by 9% in 2008 and I imagine it’s been going down since then and for good reason. Why not just carry your own water with you when you’re out and about. This cuts back dramatically on cost as well as help reduce trash.
3. Stick to your grocery list
There isn’t anything the retailer wants more than for you to act on impulse during your entire shopping trip. But hey, I know it’s hard to avoid the fancy packaging, the end caps and aisle violators that just insist on having their products jump into your cart. But make sure you know what you’re up against and have a clear objective in mind. Get only the items on your list, put the blinders on and get in and out as fast as possible.
4. Make sure your coupons are actually saving you money
A lot of times it’s not cheaper to use a coupon. If you know which stores to buy your staple items from and check the prices before even leaving the house, you’ll save more money than if you had a brand-named coupon for a product you don’t normally buy. Those manufacturers want you to buy their expensive products, so they try to make you think you’re saving money with a coupon. Most likely there is a different brand without a coupon that will cost less than the brand-name with a coupon, so be careful how you price out products and really look at the end price.
5. Reduce pre-packaged meals
Although it might seem smart at the time to buy the box of macaroni and cheese or the frozen Healthy Choice meal, there is hardly any nutritional value in most pre-packaged meals and considering the portions, you could easily make the same meal from scratch for less money. Buying the ingredients and making it yourself with the proper type of seasonings and salt will be more delicious and healthy. It’s good to make meals in bulk and then freeze them in separate containers when you’re ready for them throughout the week. Be careful when you see pre-packaged meals that look quick and easy; a cost comes with the convenience.


The Vanuatu Family Health Association and other NGOs are currently undergoing an advocacy training workshop at the Coconut Palms Resort in Port Vila.
The Executive Director for VFHA, Mr Dunstan Tate said that the South Pacific Community (SPC) is facilitating the three-day workshop and is funded by the Australian Government through Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade.
“The workshop began today (yesterday) and will end on Thursday- the purpose of this training is to give a more in depth knowledge and skills in how to advocate for issues affecting the country that needed change,” he said.
“Issues such as, humanitarian issues on family planning, abortion and gender violence that needed change, simply advocacy is a tool used to bring about change in a law, policy or attitude of people.”
Mr Tate said that training targets all issues affecting communities at the village level right up to the national level.
“Since all levels of society is regarded in the workshop, we have participants from NGOs such as Vanuatu Red Cross, VFHA, Wan Smol Bag, Vanuatu Society for Disabled People, Women’s Centre, VASANOC and Shefa Provincial Health,” he said.
“These are our partners and why we asked them to be part of this workshop is because some issues can’t be tackled by one person, we need our partners to be able to tackle one particular issue to bring about change.”
Mr Tate said that reasons why an advocacy training was needed was there are issues such as abortion which is illegal in Vanuatu but it will only be allowed due to a pregnant mother’s medical condition.
“Medical conditions such as high blood pressure during pregnancy may lead to aborting of a baby but then another issue such as rape- a girl gets raped by a boy, the boy goes to prison and the girl gets pregnant with a baby conceived without her consent and will not be loved by her parents and not considered unwanted by the community,” he said.
“What can we do to help such incidents, or maybe a disable woman was raped and fell pregnant, can abortion be the answer to relief her of the pain and negligence of her and the baby in the community- these are the reasons why advocacy is important, so we can lobby for change in our national laws or policy to bring a better change.” READ MORE

Months after being invited to perform at the second annual KCON, ballad group 2AM returned to Los Angeles to hold its first solo concert in the States – ‘Nocturne in Christmas.’
The day before the concert, the boys of 2AM held an impromptu fanmeet in Koreatown Plaza the day before the show. Hundreds of fans flocked to the mall and perched themselves all around the stage, just eager to catch a glimpse of Changmin, Jinwoon, Jokwon, and Seulong. The fanmeet was hosted by Danny Im (1TYM) for MNET America’s show, Danny From L.A. The boys answered fan questions asked by fans and select fans had the chance of a lifetime by going on stage and receiving a hug and photo with 2AM. At the end of the meet, the boys also received a 2AM cake courtesy of the Plaza.
The concert took place the following day, December 15, at Club Nokia L.A. Live. The venue was lit by the fans’ swaying Christmas light sticks, courtesy of US I AM HOTTEST. 2AM delivered a stunning performance and showcased the group’s powerful vocals that melted every fan’s heart. During one of the talk segments, the singers voiced that they were initially worried about the obvious language barrier (they even had subtitles pre-arranged for the fans). However, much to the boys’ surprise, the fans actively participated throughout the show. When the fans weren’t swaying to the soft tunes of “Regret” or “Just Stay,” they were singing along to “One Spring Day,” “I Can’t Let You Go Even If I Die,” “I Did Wrong,” or jumping out of their seats and dancing to “You’re Prettier The More I See You.” 2AM loved the energetic crowd and that music is able to transcend any barrier.
The quartet also showcased special solo and duet stages. Changmin performed his self-composed song, “I’m Not A Bad Person” which involved a playful skit onstage where he tries to win over a girl. Then Jokwon and Jinwoon took to the stage to perform their rock duet song, “Something Bout You.” After a short break, Jokwon returned on stage with backup dancers decked out in black feather attire and released his inner diva with his powerful performance to his single, “Animal.” Finally, Seulong took his turn on stage and showed off his English with his cover of Eric Benet’s “Hurricane.”
If these special stages weren’t enough, the fans went berserk when the group performed a mash-up of Michael Jackson’s “Billie Jean,” Maroon 5’s “Move Like Jagger,” and EXO’s “Growl.” Then the boys decided they wanted to try something new. Changmin and Jokwon take care of the higher notes in songs while Seulong and Jinwoon sing the lower ones. To mix it up a bit, the boys switch parts and sang “Can’t Let You Go Even If I Die” once again.
Sadly, all shows must come to an end. For their encore, Changmin, Jokwon, Seulong, and Jinwoon performed a song that they “never imagined performing in California” – their debut song “This Song.” Of course, what kind of a Christmas concert would this be without a Christmas song? 2AM finished off its first solo concert in Los Angeles with its energetic rendition of “Santa Claus Is Coming to Town.”
