Published May 2016
The UAE has announced it will proceed with the implementation of a value-added tax (VAT) regime, which is planned to come into effect on January 1, 2018. It is expected that the rate of the VAT will be 5% on all goods and services, with some exceptions including basic food items, healthcare and education. The new tax will not be limited to the UAE, but rather will be implemented across the GCC-countries, although possibly at different rates and different implementation dates.
The implementation of VAT will come with some corporate challenges, especially for businesses which have not previously been exposed to the nuances of tax compliance. Aside from having to accommodate for additional administration costs, companies will need to consider how VAT will affect their operating models, including supply chain arrangements, financial systems, transition periods, end customer pricing and other relevant areas. Organisations should specifically focus on:
Examining the impact of VAT on each stage of their supply chain with relation to transactions, whether they be inter-company or external services;
Determining how the introduction of the VAT can affect cash flow;
Deciding how much of the VAT burden they would like to pass on to the consumer; and
Ensuring robust internal documentation processes (for example invoicing) to correctly calculate and capture the necessary information required for VAT implementation and compliance.
The impact of VAT may also vary based on industry or organisational structure of a company. For instance, where a company has presence in multiple GCC countries, it would want to consider how best to treat the tax implementation if the VAT is not introduced simultaneously across the GCC countries. Similarly, companies that engage in long-term contracts would need to address existing contracts that do not account for the introduction of VAT. It will also be important for businesses to review their contracts for goods and services to consider if these contracts adequately allocate the risk of payment of VAT and whether the payment obligation will be inclusive or exclusive of VAT in the case where the contract is silent on the matter.
Accordingly, organisations should begin by analysing contracts to review their current position on tax and amend seek to make amendments by including clauses that accommodate for VAT. In the case of existing long-term projects, companies may wish to consider price adjustments to account for the introduction of VAT mid-contract. It is also worth considering how VAT might impact contract disputes and resolution. For instance, like other taxes, VAT payment may be applicable to payments ordered as a result of a dispute resolution. However, this would likely only be required where the payment is for rendered services, not where the penalty is purely compensatory in nature and where no service has been provided.
While the above are immediate action points for companies, further action will likely be required as more information regarding VAT implementation is released by the UAE government over time. It is also unknown the extent to which personal transactions might be impacted by VAT. For instance, there is currently no guidance as to the impact of VAT on property transactions. While it is unknown to what extent VAT will apply in these cases, if the European or UK models are adopted by the UAE, it can be expected that commercial property transactions where the property is a new build would be eligible for VAT. However, until the actual law relating to VAT implementation in the UAE is released, these discussions are speculative, but nonetheless important for purposes of corporate planning.
Finally, it will be interesting to see how the law implementing VAT would deal with the tax holidays granted to free zone entities under the respective free zone laws. The general understanding is that the tax holiday applies to all taxes and theoretically should include VAT.

While delighting in all manifestations of the Terpsichorean muse—Native American ceremonies, punk, the Uyghur muqam, Polish jazz, and so on and on—the Bach cantatas are an inexhaustible treasury (see under A Bach retrospective).
The blessed congregation of the Nikolaikirche in Leipzig heard O ewiges Feuer on Pentacost Sunday in 1727. Here’s John Eliot Gardiner with a recording just before the Bach Cantata Pilgrimage in 2000:
One of the most exhilarating experiences, both to play and to listen to, is the final chorus (from 14.46), with joyous violins punctuated by trumpets and drums (cf. the 3rd orchestral suite).
Friede über Israel Peace upon Israel
Dankt den höchsten Wunderhänden, Give thanks to the exalted wondrous hands,
Dankt, Gott hat an euch gedacht. give thanks, God has been mindful of you.
Ja, sein Segen wirkt mit Macht, Yea, His blessing is mighty in effect,
Friede über Israel, in sending peace upon Israel,
Friede über euch zu senden. and peace upon you.

Cincy's Ben Martin is planning two more trips
The state of Ohio has been hit or miss for the Vols on the recruiting front. With the departure of Randy Sanders, new offensive coordinator David Cutcliffe has been given part of the state of Ohio to recruit.
One of those areas is the Cincinnati area which is home to one of the nation's best defensive ends in Ben Martin from La Salle High School.
Martin is a 6-foot-5, 220 pound defensive end whose speed has gotten him the attention of schools around the country including Tennessee.
"I knew I was going to be recruited," Martin said. "But I was not expecting it to be like this. I was a little more hectic last month than I expected it to be."

I am in the lengthy process of writing a book of stories regarding the persecution of our people in the Islamic world. Its purpose is to be a historical compilation of the stories we have brought you over the years and those that were too secretive and graphic to share. The following story, which happened on April 5, will be among them in greater detail.
Do you know any young girls in your church or family ages 17 and 19? If so, this story will relate to you and touch your heart.
In a particular north African Islamist country, there live two sisters, Rana (age 17) and Abir (age 19). They have lived a normal life, still in their parent's home, expecting that soon they would be married, hopefully as the first wife of a Muslim man and not the second, third or fourth. Their father left some years back to work in another country. Their oldest brother serves as head of the house. As a devout Muslim, he took his position and responsibilities very seriously. The girls were raised to obey the illogical and incomprehensible laws of Islam, which highly restrict women's educational, social, and individual rights. They could not understand why some sins are minor and others big and the measure of good deeds required of them. What concerned them most was the questions of who God is and how they can have a relationship with Him. They were accustomed to wearing veils and never venturing outside their home without a male relative accompanying them.
Abir had enrolled in college with her brother's permission and had many questions about the rules of Islam and the lifestyle of the prophet Muhammad. In college, she became friends with a young lady who is a member of one of our house churches. The young lady began to witness to her and let her read from the Bible.
Then, about eighteen months ago, Abir accepted the grace of God through His Son Jesus and willingly, though secretly, gave herself to Him. Understanding the faith, joy, and hope of eternal life and what it meant to have a personal relationship with Christ, she began to witness to her sister, despite her fear of doing so. Every day they would read the Bible together in secret, and soon, Rana also accepted Christ. From that day on, they prayed for the salvation of their mother and brother.
Immediately their attitudes and lifestyles changed. Rather than watching television, the mother told her son that they go into their room and read from a book each evening, then close their eyes and mumble words. Their brother began to investigate their daily lives but could find nothing that would explain such activity. Everything changed on that day and led to the events of last Tuesday.
Ramadan began on April 2 this year. As followers of Christ, the girls did not want to participate and tried to explain to their mother why they did not want to fast. Still, their mother became angry because fasting throughout the month is an annual requirement of Islam. Tuesday evening, when her son came home, she reported to him their suspicious behavior. The brother entered their room, rebuking them, and began searching through their belongings. He found their hidden Bible and started hitting his sisters with a wooden stick. As they tried to shield themselves, he started ripping apart the pages of their Bible. Then, in a fit of rage, he threw down the wooden stick, tied their wrists to the bedposts, and began beating them with an iron pipe. He continuously yelled at them, saying they had forsaken Allah and his prophet Muhammad.
The beatings quickly became so severe that the mother ran into the room and attempted to stop him. Still, she was unable, so she called her neighbors to help, and they pulled him out of the room. They were startled how these two girls had denied Islam, but more so at how severely their brother had beaten them.
The girls were left in their home for several days with no medical care. Then word came to our pastor, who informed us of the incident. The church people had given all they had to care for them, but it was not enough. We instructed him to take the girls to the hospital. But, the administrators refused entry because of the circumstances of the wounds and because they were Christians. Having no other option, we admitted them into a private hospital. Abir was in a coma all this time, which she came out of today (Saturday).
Abir awoke from her coma to find she had a broken jaw, many broken teeth, and broken bones in her arms, left leg, and right foot.
Rana's left shoulder was broken, and her lower spine fractured. In addition, her right arm is broken, as is her hip and left femur, just below the ball that connects to the hip.
Both young teenagers walked into the fiery furnace. But, for whatever reason, though Christ was in it with them, He allowed them to crawl through the valley of the shadow of death and come out on the other side badly wounded. (Recall, the three Hebrews who went into the fire acknowledged that they did not know if their God would deliver them but were confident, He could if He chose to. Either way, they would not deny Him.)
The sisters lay unconscious for hours, and Abir for days, having no medical treatment and no pain medication. Finally, when Rana awoke, she lay in severe pain, uncertain if Abir was still alive. They were beaten and broken by their brother and abandoned by their mother; their only hope of rescue was their house church. When the help of the members was quickly exhausted without sufficiency, the church could do nothing more but call on us.
Jesus said if you give a cup of what in his name, it is equivalent to giving it to him. So, what more excellent reason could we have for recuperating and healing the wounds of two persecuted children than knowing it is as if we are healing his wounds?
Though reality may again exceed our expectations, we estimate a need of $26,985 to heal and dismiss the two sisters from the hospital. The Deceiver has taken his wrath out on these helpless young girls. The congregation is hiding but is not scattered. What a testimony for us to bear their burden and pay their bills (Galatians 6:2). In that land it will not be known where the funds come from, only that the Lord Jesus provided them through His people, and Christ will be glorified for it.
Now, will you please help us pay the bill?

This descriptor calculates the weighted path (molecular ID) described by Randic, characterizing molecular branching. Five descriptors are calculated, based on the implementation in the ADAPT software package. Note that the descriptor is based on identifying all paths between pairs of atoms and so is NP-hard. This means that it can take some time for large, complex molecules.
A data frame, each row represents one of the molecules,
each column represents one feature.
This function returns 5 columns named

Chat and virtual sex
You can get pretty much everything, the quality just depends from the size of your wallet.“Virtual sex is sexual activity where two or more people — or one person and a virtual character — gather together via some form of communications equipment to arouse each other by transmitting sexually explicit messages.
Virtual sex describes the phenomenon, no matter the communications equipment used.”Sexting chat rooms are for guys who are more interested in erotica type of textual experience with real people.
” I ask, pointing to the trailer on the home page, where Jameson’s digital image appears to be competing in some kind of timed, multi-partner sex decathlon. The “Sinulator,” for example, produced by Sinulate Entertainment in Sunnyvale, California, is a wireless vibrator that connects to any computer with an Internet hookup and a Windows operating system.The Sinulator’s counterpart is the “Interactive Fleshlight,” a penis sleeve for men that transmits in-and-out action into vibrations for the Sinulator on the other end.“You could walk a couple through a facilitated session,” she says, “while they are in the privacy of their own bedroom.” Cory Silverberg, a sexual health educator and founding member of Come As You Are, an education-based sex store in Toronto, says, “What’s good about cybersex is that it allows people to conceive of new possibilities,” whether that means a disabled person gaining greater access to the sexual sphere or someone “fulfilling their fetish fantasies beyond anything that we could have imagined.” The keys to healthy virtual sex, he says, include consent of all partners, a “sense of good will” (not going out and “trolling and stalking online”), and a respect for boundaries — “making sure that you’re not exposing more real information about yourself than you’re really comfortable with.” Like any technology, though, virtual sex comes with its risks.Kimberly Young, Ph D, who is the founder and director of the Center for Internet Addiction Recovery in Bradford, Pennsylvania, agrees that virtual worlds can allow individuals to explore new types of sexual behavior.


The factory would use so much electricity that it was cheaper for them to build their own small power station to create their own electricity.
The boilers are filled with horizontal pipes that contain oil, which are heated from the furnace. As the boilers build up with ash waste between the pipes it loses its efficiency, so every year they have to be peened using glass bead to remove any scaling and ash waste. The idea to peen the pipes with glass bead is to avoid keying the surface to help avoid waste sticking to it.
Six boilers in total have to be cleaned in total, across five levels high.

Jason Bartlett will retire after ten seasons in the Major Leagues, Mike Berardino of the St. Paul Pioneer Press reports. The Twins have asked him to reconsider, but it isn’t likely, Berardino adds.
Bartlett, 34, joined the Twins on a minor league deal over the off-season suffered an ankle injury on April 7 after replacing Josh Willingham, who was also injured. He was used almost exclusively as a shortstop throughout his career, showing adept defense despite not doing much with the bat. Over 3,521 career plate appearances, Bartlett has a career .702 OPS.
We at Hardball Talk wish Bartlett the best as he heads into retirement.

Our good friends and colleagues at Hearts Of Oak sent out this press release yesterday. Child Rapists Should Be Deported Right Now!
Do Something About It!
News recently broke in national and local papers about a victim of organised child gang rape coming face to face with her abuser in an Asda supermarket. Her abuser was with a young child of around seven or eight years of age, how is he even allowed to be around children? Her abuser Adil Khan was jailed for eight years in 2012 but was released in 2016. Khan had dual nationality, his British citizenship was revoked and he was supposed to have been deported to Pakistan.
Khan did appeal against his deportation however he lost that case in 2018. Why is he still in England? Why was a victim of child rape allowed to meet her abuser in a supermarket when he shouldnt even be in the country?
Serious questions need to be asked, and our government held accountable, especially those faceless, seemingly unaccountable deep state bureaucrats who allow these things to happen.
For Immediate Release: 21 May 2020
Legal action against Priti Patel starts in order to force deportation of Rochdale grooming gang rapists
Pre-action Letter to be served at 12 midday tomorrow, 22ndMay, at the Home Office, 2 MarshamStreet, Westminster
Three convicted members of the notorious Rochdale grooming gang, Abdul Rauf, Abdul Aziz and AdilKhan are still walking the street of Rochdale nearly two years after they were stripped of their British citizenship prior to deportation back to Pakistan.
They are causing distress and anger withboth victims and residents in the town and across the country.
At 12 midday tomorrow Hearts of Oaktogether with its Rochdale partner Women Against Groomers will deliver a pre-action Letter to the Home Secretary Priti Patel at her office in Whitehall. In this they give notice that they are starting legal actionto force her to deport these child rapists.
Alan Craig of Hearts of Oak will say:
“There has beena complete failure of duty by the Home Office, and an abject betrayal of the victims and residents. Thisalso sends a clear message to the wider public that the Home Office is not prepared to do its duty and rid the country of these and similar monsters.
“We had hoped for better from you, Ms Patel.You have said rightly that the child victims ‘have been let down by the state’. Yet you do not remove these paedophiles and thereby you perpetrate the injustice against them.”
Liz Thirsk of Rochdale-based Women Against Groomerssaid:“Rochdale residents are very unhappy with the total lack of action regarding the removal of the three men.”
We will keep you updated.

Polocrosse is a fast-paced equine sport played on a146m pitch on the backs of some of the most athletic horses that exist. Unlike polo, polocrosse horses are asked to spin back and go from 0 to 100 in a matter of seconds. The sport has often been called “Rugby on Horseback,” but once you have watched it, I am sure you will see there is nothing that compares to this sport.
In polocrosse, a team of six is broken down into two sections of three players who go onto the field for chukkas. Of those three players, there is an attack player/goal scorer at the number 1 position, a mid-field player who controls the game at the number 2 and a defender at the number 3 position. There are specific areas on the field the players are allowed and two umpires who make sure no dangerous play happens.
Zimbabwe Polocrosse has had some highs and lows; we have been rated the best in the world at one stage and in 2011, we came second in the World Cup, but unfortunately, we dropped to 6th in 2015. We are now building up to ensure we get one of the top spots back! To get there, we have decided that our players need more exposure. Therefore, for the first time in 28 years, we have the New Zealand Barbarians to take on the Zimbabwe Men’s A side at the ZOL Polocrosse International. This is going to be a heart-racing event that you do not want to miss!
The test matches will be held on the 4th, 5th and 6th of August at Borrowdale Country Club on Carrick Creigh Road. Admission is free and the fun begins at 11am. We hope to see you there for a fun family day out and some heart-racing entertainment as you watch the sport that thunders!

Should I put my home in a trust in San Jose, California?
The primary reason individuals put their house in a living trust is to prevent the pricey and lengthy probate procedure at death. Since you can access the assets in the trust at any time, a revocable trust does not supply asset protection from creditors or get rid of the house from your taxable estate at death.
Is money acquired from a trust taxable in San Jose?
Any income that trust inheritance assets make is reported on the grantor’s individual return and he pays taxes on it. If you inherit from an easy trust, you must report and pay taxes on the money. By meaning, anything you receive from an easy trust is earnings made by it during that tax year.
Is a trust needed to prevent probate in San Jose, California?

What does it mean when a house is owned by a trust in San Jose, CA?
What does it indicate when the owner of a home is listed as owned by a trust in the family’s name? A trust is a legal entity different from a private or group of people. As the other answers have explained, an owner often moves his/her property into a trust for probate/inheritance purposes.

Unlike a revocable trust, an irrevocable trust does not consist of a clause that enables the trustor to liquify the trust at will. Nevertheless, a trustor may be able to terminate an irrevocable trust by following state laws relating to dissolution.

About Living Trust
A living trust is a fiduciary relationship created during an individual’s lifetime where a designated person, the trustee, is given responsibility for managing that individual’s assets for the benefit of the eventual beneficiary. A living trust is designed to allow for the easy transfer of the trust creator or settlor’s assets, while bypassing the often complex and expensive legal process of probate. Living trust agreements designate a trustee who holds legal possession of assets and property that flow into the trust.

Harun al-Rasyid LUBIS
Lecturer at Faculty of Civil and Environmental Engineering, ITB ; Chairman Infrastructure Partnership and Knowledge Center
The policy environment of infrastructure business throughout the world is now increasingly exposed to the economic elements of competition, private ownership and or tendering for operation and maintenance contract. By doing so government is aiming at improving the efficiency of public sector delivery and reduce amount of state subsidies. Although the recent infrastructure laws intended to end public monopolies and open the infrastructure market to private entities, only certain market such as telecommunication grew rather rapidly,then power and waters.
Toll roads seem to develop very slowly, all too often are hampered by land acquisition, while other sectors such as ports, airports and railways are even slower.
To appreciate the current debate on the issue and in order to safeguard the interests of public at large, the elements and the nature of infrastructure market should first be addressed.
More than two decades Public-Private Partnership (PPP) has been a very fashionable concept in infrastructure discourse in Indonesia. In 1991 the World Bank began offering loan TAP4I (Technical Assistance Project for Public & Private Provision of Infrastructure) to the Government of Indonesia, then continues with various ADB loans such as PPITA (Private Provision of Infrastructure Technical Assistance) and recently IRSDP (Infrastructure Reform Sector Development Project) through the ADB loan. Total financing of hundreds of millions of dollars has been absorbed, but the realization of PPP is still nowhere. Having hit twice by financial crises in 1998 and 2008, infrastructure investment has not recovered to pre-crisis levels, though the nominal has been increasing up to 3.2% GDP: compared with China 8.5% and India 4.7%, Vietnam 10%. The recent Master Plan for the Acceleration and Expansion of Indonesia’s Economic Development (MP3EI) and the technocratic draft of upcoming Five Year Development Plan (RPJMN 2015-2019) provide huge infrastructure pipelines, and they still heavily rely on private participation to fill the funding gap.
Until now bilateral and multilateral supports for the PPP continues to flow, however, the process moves very slowly and when PPP project lists were brought to the market, transaction is hardly occurred. But many still believe that PPP will accelerate infrastructure provision, ease fiscal constraint and spur economic growth. In the local PPP market, there remains a missing link between the huge demands and the huge availability of capital market. The slow progress is due to some fundamental reasons, predominantly bad project planning and preparation, more specifically unsatisfying risk-reward ratio to investors. What went wrong and lacking? This article is an academic view resulting from a series of discussions with the actors: public, bureaucrats, private and knowledge institution.

What are the Advantages of Long-Term Medication Rehabs when it Pertains to Recuperation?
If you are talking about healing alternatives to deal with a dependence on medications or alcohol, it might really feel odd to establish a specific time limit on your own. Besides, rehab is not a race, it is simply something that occurs and may take a bit longer compared to anticipated. Even though a time limit could appear unusual, it is occurring at countless medicine recovery facilities throughout the country.
Long Term Inpatient Drug Rehab in Cedar Mountain North Carolina
You might recommend that restricting recuperation is in reverse– one of the most important consider establishing success is whether the person can get rid of his/her dependence to alcohol or medicines. This indicates that the program is ‘over’ when the client feels confident in his or her own ability to do that, not when a specific variety of days have actually been gotten to.
Why Did Short-Term Options come to be Popular in Cedar Mountain?
When we discuss much shorter, finite programs, lots of people are uninformed that it was the insurance provider who at first applied these constraints. Lots of people have a hard time to pay for healing without insurance policy, so when insurance provider chose to limit the number of days they would pay for treatment (generally around 30 days) it certainly had an influence. Although it may not provide the specialists sufficient time to give the treatment needed to end dependency completely, the choice option (not offering assistance in any way because of an inability to pay without insurance policy) additionally seemed much less than preferable.
Long-Term Inpatient Drug Rehab in Cedar Mountain NC
Many individuals are frustrated when they hear that there is no surefire time in rehab that will work for every person. Recuperation experts as well as study statistics do aim out the reality that longer programs (definition 90 days or even more) are substantially extra successful in aiding a person maintain long-term soberness. There are a number of reasons qualified experts believe this to be true:
Drug Rehab Facilities in Cedar Mountain
A longer time in recuperation corresponds to more time to understand and also solve underlying issues that are causing the dependency. When a client reaches a healing program, they commonly need to go through cleansing initially. After detox is total, they need to adapt to being in a full-time center. Afterwards change period is total, actual therapy can begin. Thinking about that these two preliminary periods might last upwards of two weeks, it implies that the initial part of the procedure is currently spent just getting changed. Having just 14 or so days left is not most likely to be adequate time to provide lasting modification.
Long Term Drug Rehab 28718
Long-term inpatient treatment centers could damage the cycle of reliance, it does that by offering a risk-free room to stay sober for extended durations. Without feasible interruptions, it indicates that the patient can focus on healing, an action that is already tough in its own. The emphasis remains where it must be by removing outside interference and diversions.
Few patients look for assistance after a few months, allow alone a few weeks. Long-term medicine rehabilitations focusses on recognizing the harmful habit patterns that these patients adhere to and also will certainly help them determine and eliminate these patterns.
Long Term Residential Drug Treatment in Cedar Mountain North Carolina
The popular drug PSA’s were not existing, the misuse of medicines or alcohol takes an incredible physical toll on the body. Often, the individuals begin to discover they are sleeping and eating better than before. Both the physical and psychological wellness begins to improve over time.

Cyrus Chestnut's 'Spirituals To Swing' Concert
Cyrus Chestnut is the first person you see as you enter Newark's jazz station, WBGO. In a black and white poster, he's standing by the piano, his eyes almost closed, a slight smile resting on his face and maybe something up his sleeve. That's Cyrus, a musical agent of sweet and serious soul.
Born Jan. 17, 1963, in Baltimore, Chestnut grew up in the Mount Calvary Baptist Church and studied classical piano at the Peabody Institute. After attending Berklee College, Chestnut worked with Betty Carter, the singer and bandleader who shaped young talent in her trios. Chestnut was one of the best, with feeling, technique and power.
Lately, though, he's going back to something that he's missed. Chestnut says that when he heard pianist Hank Jones play "Lord, I Want to Be a Christian" on Jones' album Tiptoe Tapdance — and then play the same piece at the funeral for Lionel Hampton — Chestnut felt inspired to play hymns again.
Though he calls this concert "Spirituals to Swing," it proceeds from swing to a spiritual, then through a hymn medley to Chestnut's own "We Fall Down." His longtime bassist and drummer are Dezron Douglas and Neal Smith, respectively; his horn men are the young but seasoned Jimmy Greene on tenor and newcomer Curtis Taylor on trumpet.
Chestnut's guest vocalist, Cynthia Scott, comes from the Sanctified Church. Her father is a minister — five of her six brothers are ministers — and Scott says she knows a good sermon when she hears one. Ray Charles hired her out of Texas, and throughout her career, she often performed with Joe Williams. Scott is a graduate of Manhattan School of Music and has served as a Jazz Ambassador from the Kennedy Center and the State Department. She counts herself as one of the first singers to hire Harry Connick Jr. when he was the new pianist in town. All of the above have said in public, in one way or another, "Listen to Cynthia Scott."
Guest host is WBGO's Rhonda Hamilton. Kennedy Center artistic advisor for jazz is Dr. Billy Taylor. Director of jazz programming is Kevin Struthers. Mix by JazzSet technical director Duke Markos with Big Mo Recording

In the world of martial arts action films, there are few fight choreographers who have made indelible marks in the industry, and John Salvitti is such a man.
Having choreographed key fights scenes in Flashpoint, Special I.D., and Kung Fu Killer, all starring Donnie Yen, Salvitti is one of the best in the business, and his fight choreography in Ernie Barbarash’s latest film Pound of Flesh, is one of the key highlights of the movie. Starring action superstar Jean-Claude Van Damme, Pound of Flesh is the perfect vehicle for Van Damme, who plays a character that has a kidney stolen from his body (you read that correctly), and he spends the rest of the film taking on a cadre of villains in his quest to reclaim it.
The story alone gave Salvitti a challenge as he had to work around Van Damme’s character’s disabled condition, and with some MMA and Jujitsu moves, he was able to adapt Van Damme’s own signature martial arts style to fit the film’s story. Here, Salvitti discusses his work on the picture:
For your choreography in Pound of Flesh you use Jujitsu and some MMA moves, which is different for Jean-Claude. He says that Jujitsu is difficult for him, but that he appreciated the challenge. Did you have your work cut out for you in choreographing the fights for this film?
We find the combat for the choreography. You never know where the fight might go in a real-world situation. I love his spaghetti analogy. It can go anywhere. It’s an awesome description. He would understand that better than most. He’s been there so long. You have to be able to switch things at the turn of a dime. A guy is throwing punches, he might go and grab your ankle suddenly and break your ankle. The next thing you know, you’re falling off balance. You can’t punch anymore. Suddenly the spaghetti analogy … it’s uncontrollable. The fight is going to move in different directions. That’s how the choreography is born. I have to force myself as a choreographer to think like that.
What’s different or cutting edge about the fight choreography in Pound of Flesh, in terms of measuring up to all the other stuff that’s out there right now?
Audiences are so keen and hypersensitive to combat and to action. They know what’s real. They see it now. That brand of “real” – whether it’s in The Avengers or in Pound of Flesh, they know it. That’s what makes MMA so special. Whereas in boxing – which I love – you have your gloves, but the referee is going to break you apart. There’s a reason why we love boxing: The purity of the punch, those combinations they have, and the footwork, and the body movement.
This was your first time working with Jean-Claude. Say something about that.
He was one of the key people in martial arts and action cinema. He opened doors. He was one of the reasons why I was enamored with the martial arts. I lifted my weights and followed The Muscles From Brussels.
You also got to work with Darren Shahlavi, who recently passed away, on this picture. Talk about working with him.
Darren was a consummate professional. He loved martial arts. He’d stop at nothing to help to deliver the martial arts. He’d stop at nothing to do whatever it took. He had a collaborative spirit, and he was selfless. We would toss him around, and he said, “Toss me,” and we tossed him. He’d stop at nothing to get the absolute best out of himself as well as whom he was working with.
Ernie Barbarash, the director of the film, has spoken very highly of your collaboration on this project. What are your thoughts on working with Ernie?
Ernie is an awesome director. He’s a teammate. He got his hands dirty right along with us. He’s inspiring. He never wavered with me. He came to all my rehearsals.
Pound of Flesh has a great moment at the halfway point for Jean-Claude to do his signature splits on the side of a car. How were you able to work in his splits and some of your fight choreography for this scene?
In the script, there was a particular moment that was a little non-descriptive as far the car fight. It was written as a knockout punch kind of a thing. I said to Ernie, “I might have uncovered something here … for the splits! What if there’s a little combat going on here? Let’s get some strikes and punching working. The more I talked, the more Ernie got excited. Then, as the car’s moving, how do you like the idea of him doing the splits? Ernie was like, “I love it!” Jean-Claude hadn’t done the splits in a movie in a long time. That’s how that worked.
This movie must have given you some challenges because Jean-Claude is playing a character who is essentially handicapped. What were your thoughts on initially coming on board this project? How did you approach the choreography from the story standpoint?
I’m a martial arts choreographer in the traditional sense of the word. There’re a lot of expectations for the fan base. You want to push all those buttons, but ultimately the story dictates what the audience will be. It’s basically an action thriller more than it is a martial arts action film in the traditional sense. I actually worry a little bit, because people might say, “Where’s the three-minute fight?” It would be out of character to have these longer fights because Jean-Claude’s character has a missing kidney.
We were always striving to be believable so the audience doesn’t go, “Oh, that’s not believable.” We’re already pushing the envelope a little bit, so the long fights aren’t meant to be … when I designed these fights … it was like five or six fights … I tried to be one whole piece of action. Each fight was a piece of a bigger fight. The action is really character-driven. I felt for the characters. I was happy that I felt for them while I was making the film. It helped me to engage in my choreography. Let’s tell a story through the fights. He had surgery, he’s on morphine, so we had the opening fight where he jumped a little bit, but later we kept him more grounded for a reason.
BEHIND THE SCENES OF POUND OF FLESH
You’ve worked with some of the best action stars in the world, including Donnie Yen and Wesley Snipes, but coming into something with Van Damme, do you think you’ve given his fans what they’re hoping to see?
I would fantasize, What do I want to see Jean-Claude Van Damme doing in a film? Or any film star I’ve worked with. What would I want to see them do in a movie? In this case, I just wanted to see – and with the injury he had in the film – I wanted to see him grounded and I wanted to see him explode a little bit. I believe that we succeeded with that.

The purpose of asphalt plants is to generate hot mix asphalt. These plants make use of aggregates, sand, bitumen and other such material in particular quantities to produce asphalt, which is also called blacktop or asphalt concrete.
The main activity of an asphalt mixing plant is that it heats up aggregates and then mixes them with bitumen and other adhesive substances to generate hot mix asphalt. The quantity and nature of the aggregate are dependent on specific requirements. It can be a single-sized material or a combination of numerous materials of varying sizes, along with a mixture of fine and coarse particles.

Until the project was shelved in 2006, Boeing’s Phantom Works Research and Development unit were developing a concept aircraft that would have been the largest airplane to ever fly, but it wouldn’t have set any altitude records. It was called the Pelican, and it would have had a normal cruising altitude of only twenty feet because it used the concept of ground effect to achieve lift. Specifications called for this ground effect vehicle (GEV) to have a wingspan of 150 meters, able to carry up to 1,400 tons of cargo.
Because GEVs skim the surface during flight, they are only practical over large, smooth bodies of water. Flying close to the water, the wing’s downwash angle and tip vortices are suppressed, resulting in a greatly reduced drag which leads to outstanding cruise efficiency. This would translate into a range of 10,000 nautical miles in trans-oceanic flight. Operating from paved runways, the plane has thirty-eight fuselage-mounted landing gears with seventy-six tires to distribute the weight.
While the Pelican never made it to production, the concept is hardly a new one. For decades the Russians have experimented with aircraft they called WIG (Wing In Ground-effect) planes. A WIG craft, like the Pelican, sits on a cushion of air created by aerodynamics rather than by an engine. This means that it can only fly when the WIG craft has sufficient forward speed. This is called a dynamic air cushion as opposed to the hovercraft’s static air cushion.
The Soviets had great plans for these planes. Just like Boeing’s Pelican they discovered the high efficiency of ground-effect craft. The only difference from the Russian WIGs and the Pelican is that the Soviet craft did not have the ability to fly higher than 20 feet. They would be restricted to use over large bodies of water.
Two WIG planes are especially interesting. The Orlyonok A90 is a large WIG prototype with one huge turboprop mounted high at the tail fin for cruise thrust and two turbofans for takeoff, acceleration, and landing. Two hydro skis are mounted at the underside of the fuselage, one in the front, and another at the center of gravity.
Designed in 1974, the original plans were to build 120 Orlyonoks as troop transport and assault vehicles, but only four were built— one of which has been used for static tests only. But the WIG craft had a troubled service history; the first Orlyonok crashed during a VIP demo flight in 1975. In October 1979 the Orlyonok entered service in the Soviet Navy, where one was lost in a crash in 1992. Unfortunately the crew didn’t survive the accident. The last flight of the Orlyonok took place in October 1993, and currently the remains of the last Orlyonoks are rusting and falling apart at their base.
There have been plans to modify one of the surviving Orlyonoks as a transport, carrying up to 150 passengers in a single deck layout or up to 350 passengers in a twin deck layout. A cargo version of the craft was planned to have a payload of thirty tons.
The Soviets also started a WIG warship program called the Lun in 1970, but assembly of the first Lun did not start until 1983. In July 1986 it was launched into the Volga River. During Spring 1987 sea trials commenced on the Caspian Sea.
The first Lun was designed and built as a missile launching strike craft primarily for anti-submarine tasks. It carried 6 missile tubes for this mission, and had a top speed of 500 kilometers per hour. The second Lun was under construction during the collapse of the Soviet Union and the project was abandoned. In 1997 Russian television showed the Lun half sunk in the water at Kaspiisk Naval Air Base.
The Russians built a whole range of WIG aircraft ranging from eight-engine monsters to small pleasure craft. Today in the United States and Europe there are several homemade ground-effect planes usually seating no more than four passengers.

The United States - like other Anglo-settler states, including Israel - was built on a settler ideology which centers around racial and ethnic oppression and outright genocide against the indigenous people, says Dennis Etler, an American political analyst who has a decades-long interest in international affairs.
In an interview with Press TV on Wednesday, Etler, a former professor of Anthropology at Cabrillo College in Aptos, California, suggested that Zionism is the version of this core settler ideology that was used by the Israelis against the Palestinians, which helps to explain the Zionist orientation of the United States.
“As a settler state the US, like other Anglo-settler states, including Israel, has a core ideology of manifest destiny, racial and ethnic oppression, and outright genocide against the indigenous people they encounter and oust during their colonial conquests. This core settler ideology is indistinguishable from Zionism and helps to explain the Zionist orientation of the US and its allies,” he said.
Etler made the remarks while commenting on a new opinion poll which shows that US President Donald Trump’s approval rating has sunk to a historic low just less than a year into his term in office.
“Both Trump’s and [former Democratic presidential nominee Hillary] Clinton’s similarly low approval ratings speak to the bankruptcy of the two-party system in the US. It’s long been recognized that the Democrat and Republican parties are two sides of the same coin. They both represent the interests of US financial capital, the corporate elite, and the Military-Industrial Congressional Complex. In other words, US imperialism,” Professor Etler said.
“While the US under Trump touts its economic prowess and talks of ‘America First’ its policies are meant to enrich Trump’s cronies and deceive the public who suffer as a result. Both parties pander to their electoral bases which represent different cultural orientations within the US body politic,” he added.
“The Democrats cater to minorities, women, the LGBT community, and youth. This is the coalition that elected Obama. But while rhetorically advocating policies that benefit those groups, the Democrats do not deliver any real change, other than some minor concessions to appease their base,” he said.
The analyst said, “The Republicans practice a similar sort of identity politics but cater to a different demographic which includes business people, evangelical Christians, and older Americans with more traditional, conservative attitudes around immigration, abortion and sexual preferences.”
Both US parties serve the interests of the 0.01%
“These two constituencies are the basis for the two-party system and are meant to give legitimacy to the US electoral process. But, the real interests that both parties serve are the 0.01% not the broad masses of the American people who must struggle to keep their heads above water on a daily basis,” he noted.
“Thus, both parties have a problem in maintaining their bases of support, with most people being disgusted by their lack of integrity and inability to deliver a better life for the lower and middle classes. First one party and then the other deliver promises, lambaste and discredit their opponents, and hand political power back and forth to each other on an ongoing basis. Other than their core constituents, approximately 35% of the electorate for each party, the American public are disgusted with both parties, but have little or no alternative,” Etler noted.
“The result is that hard-core conservatives back Trump and hard core liberals support Clinton, each garnering only a minority of 35% support. The problem is that electoral politics has become polarized around these two extremes, resulting in gridlock and a pendulum effect in which identity politics rules the roost, keeping the country perpetually divided along cultural lines, while the economic elites maintain their positions of power and influence no matter which swing the electoral pendulum has taken. Any real alternative to the status quo is nipped in the bud,” he observed.
“Only a complete overhaul of the economic and political system which disavows corporate/financial capitalism at home and imperialism abroad will change the stalemate in US politics. Be it liberal/progressive Democrats or conservative/nativistic Republicans the underlying character of the US political and economic system remains unchanged, and the average American throws their arms up in despair,” Professor Etler concluded.

It has been mentioned many times on this site that John Carpenter’s THE FOG is a favorite movie of both Daves. Unfortunately, up until recently, good quality versions of this film have been non-existent. Even the blu-ray that was available as an import on Amazon for so long was just a blu-ray version of the MGM Special edition that came out many years ago (in other words, it was less than perfect). Once again Shout! Factory has gone to great lengths to provide us with a great release in its best form to date! These guys know what they are doing and know what the fans want!
Celebrity encounters, while usually pleasant, are rarely as enjoyable when one meets the legendary Tom Atkins! The 2011 Indianapolis Horrorhound Weekend along with Mask-Fest was the perfect venue for featuring Atkins along with some alumni from one of his films. HALLOWEEN III. The film’s director, Tommy Lee Wallace, Atkins, along with his co-star, Stacey Nelkin were all on hand at this event – sitting side by side.
The last convention The Daves attended together was New England’s “Rock & Shock” back in October. One of the highlights of that event was the opportunity to meet Adrienne Barbeau (see full details HERE) as she was a key player in one of my all-time favorite films, THE FOG.
The 2011 Indianapolis Horrorhound Weekend provided two more celebrity encounters from that iconic film; Tommy Lee Wallace & Tom Atkins. The Daves meeting the Toms was one of our top Horrorhound priorities! Aside from THE FOG, both men have been involved in many other iconic horror films from the 1980’s (our teenage years). This was also the golden age of slashers as well as a prolific period in the horror genre itself.

Native and non-native residents of the Coeur d’Alene Indian Reservation are going to have to work out a local solution to their latest conflict over the right of tribal members to hunt on private property if they want to avoid a drawn-out court battle, a federal official said Tuesday evening.
Speaking at a confrontational meeting at the Plummer Community Hall, Wendy Olson, U.S. attorney for Idaho, said there is no single source of law that answers the question of whether tribal hunters are trespassing on nontribal land.
“I don’t get to make that decision,” Olson said in response to those in the crowd looking for an immediate resolution to a decades-old bone of contention. “Ultimately,” she said, “it will be resolved through litigation.”
But the federal government’s highest law enforcement officer in Idaho advised leaders on both sides to not go down that long trail.
An hour and a half later, tribal Chairman Chief Allan and Benewah County Commissioner Phil Lambert appeared to take Olson’s advice.
“We have given our word. We should go home and try to work it out,’’ Allan said.
“If you are willing to sit down, we will sit down with you,” Lambert said.
The amicable words came at the end of a rancorous evening that began inauspiciously with Benewah County Farm Bureau President Del Rust introducing Olson, county Prosecutor Doug Payne and other nontribal officials to “a meeting about private property rights.”
Rust either didn’t recognize or didn’t care to introduce Allan and several other Tribal Council members who came to the meeting without being formally invited by the bureau.
It was not the first time there has been such a confrontation between nontribal residents bent on defending individual liberties and Coeur d’Alenes just as adamant about tribal sovereignty.
Since the U.S. Supreme Court decided in 2001 that the southern third of Lake Coeur d’Alene belongs to the tribe, there have been clashes about everything from dock permits to law enforcement authority.
Advocating the rights of nontribal residents was Payne, who advised Olson in a Sept. 13 letter to invoke the jurisdiction he lacks “to prosecute tribal trespassers.”
“Tensions are running high on this reservation, and conflict between armed hunters and armed landowners is very dangerous,” Payne wrote.
The prosecutor, along with Benewah County Sheriff Bob Kirts, has led opposition to cross-deputizing tribal police, a deal accepted by Kootenai County, which allows the tribe to enforce state law on nontribal members.
To bolster his stand on hunting, Payne cites a 1960 opinion written by a regional solicitor for the Interior Department that there is no right for Indians “to hunt and fish on the ceded lands of their reservation” and that such rights “do not remain in the Indian after disposal of the land but goes with the land.”
Olson, however, dismissed that argument in favor of a 1968 decision by Supreme Court Justice William O. Douglas, in which tribal hunting and fishing rights were retained by treaty even after Congress terminated the Menominees’ federal recognition.
“I believe the weight of the authority would be on the side of the tribe,” she said.
Like other tribes, the Coeur d’Alenes saw their lands diminished by the Dawes Act of 1887 so that today little more than 20 percent of reservation property is owned by the tribe.
Non-native property owners claim that they are trespassed upon by hunters, presumably tribal members.
Russell Lowry, whose family has farmed land on the reservation since 1942, said he couldn’t understand why anyone would enter someone else’s property to hunt without permission.
Nevertheless, Lowry said, “It would take guts to run out and ask somebody with a gun whether they had a right to be there.”
Farmer Mike Ingersoll, who owns 40 acres and leases 300 acres on the reservation, said it was an issue of safety. He must protect cattle he runs from animal predation, and somebody could get hurt by accident, he said.
A tribal member who didn’t give his full name said he had hunted on the reservation most of his life and that even having such a meeting about whether he had the right was degrading.
“You live in our nation and want to change our law,” said the tribal member, who added that he had been threatened with weapons and one day he would fire back. Allan rose to quiet such talk. While not relinquishing the tribe’s right to hunt all lands within the reservation, he said the tribe respects property. A small percentage of tribal members cause the problems and spoil it for everyone else, he said.
Allan said he has repeatedly offered to meet with Benewah County leaders to resolve differences, but events like the meeting Tuesday only serve to inflame emotions on both sides.
“Why does it have to be like this?” he asked. “Stop this nonsense.”

A blazer worn by Prince in 1984 movie Purple Rain has sold for $96,000.
Also sold at the auction held by Hollywood’s Profiles In History was a white shirt worn by Prince in the film. It also fetched $96,000.
The outfit was scheduled to go under the hammer before Prince died on April 21. Profiles In History’s Joe Maddalena tells the Guardian: “It just happened to be one of those coincidences that unfortunately he passed away.
“Probably the signature thing he is known for is Purple Rain. It’s what made his career. It’s probably what he’ll be remembered for always. To have an important piece like this is pretty astonishing and an amazing opportunity.”

Meanwhile, a collection of guitars once owned by the late blues guitarist Gary Moore has sold for a total of £143,235 ($190,000) in London.
And the drum kit used to record the Beatles hit Love Me Do will go up for auction in California on Thursday at Nate D. Sanders Auctions.
Auction house manager Michael Kirk tells Reuters: “This is a piece of rock history. There is only one drum kit that was there that day that this first track was laid down – the track that launched the Beatles.”
The track features the late Andy White on drums, with Ringo Starr playing tambourine before he was officially named the Fab Four’s drummer.

FBI chief James Comey and his investigators are increasingly certain that presidential nominee Hillary Clinton violated laws in handling classified government information through her private email server, career agents say.
Some expect him to push for charges, but he faces a formidable obstacle: the political types in the Obama White House who view a Clinton presidency as a third Obama term.
With that, agents have been spreading the word, largely through associates in the private sector, that their boss is getting stonewalled, despite uncovering compelling evidence that Clinton broke the law.
Exactly what that evidence is — and how and when it was uncovered during Comey’s months-long inquiry — has not been disclosed. For the record, the FBI had no comment on the matter, and government sources say no final decision has been made.
Clinton denies she did anything wrong, claiming she had no idea she was getting classified information (a violation of federal law) on her private server during her years as Obama’s secretary of state because the documents she received contained no such headings.
And as FBI director, Comey can only “recommend charges” to the hacks in the Obama Justice Department. Indeed, many law enforcement officials who know the FBI chief and the bureau’s inner workings believe the evidence would have to be overwhelming for Comey to even recommend charges, much less for DOJ to pursue them.
Still, some FBI staffers suggest the probe’s at a point where Comey might quit in protest if Justice ignores a recommendation to pursue a criminal case against Clinton.
Just how close Comey is to any recommendation — whether to indict or exonerate Clinton — is difficult to know. But agents believe the probe is nearing an end. A State Department staffer who set up Clinton’s email server, for instance, was recently granted immunity from prosecution to provide Comey’s team with evidence.
I’m also told Comey and his team increasingly doubt Clinton’s “story.” Most officials know private email servers are easier to hack into than secure government servers. They also know that even documents not labeled “classified” may be top secret.
That’s why they’re supposed to be sent only through government accounts. Those who don’t follow those rules, like former CIA Director David Petraeus, have faced consequences.
Another matter for Comey & Co.: whether Clinton comingled her official State Department business with her role at the Clinton Foundation, and whether she wiped clean messages that show her using her office at State for foundation work.
Law enforcement sources also say Comey’s record as a prosecutor shows he has zero tolerance for such abuses.
As US attorney for the Southern District after the Nasdaq stock market crashed, Comey led an obstruction investigation that targeted Internet banker Frank Quattrone. That probe focused on a single (and some would say non-dispositive) sentence from a single email he appeared to approve, “Let’s clean up those files.”
Quattrone was convicted and faced several years in jail, though a successful appeal and deferred prosecution agreement with the government put the matter to rest.
Comey’s prosecution of domestic diva Martha Stewart followed a similar pattern. Stewart sold shares of a company owned by one of her friends just before a corporate announcement sent the stock into a tailspin.
But she did not go to jail for what the feds began investigating: insider trading. Instead, Comey & Co. had to settle on obstruction-of-justice charges based on allegedly misleading information Stewart gave about her trade. Even this was no slam dunk: At trial, witnesses contradicted each other. At least one of the charges in the case was dropped. (One prosecution witness later faced perjury charges over his testimony but was eventually acquitted.)
Yet in the end, Comey prevailed. Stewart was convicted and sentenced to several months in prison.
Yes, there are key differences with these cases, the biggest being political: Comey had the backing of his boss, then-President George W. Bush, to address alleged Wall Street improprieties.
FBI sources say he has no backing from President Obama and Attorney General Loretta Lynch to recommend charges against the former secretary, since a Clinton presidency may be the best chance to preserve the Obama legacy.
That leaves Comey in a bind: Does he do what is politically expedient and deny the reality that Clinton’s email server activities violated the law, or follow the evidence to wherever it takes him?
Here’s hoping he uses the same standards against Clinton as he used against Stewart and Quattrone.
Here is my take on the state of play regarding Hillary Clinton’s use of a private email server while she was Secretary of State and the FBI’s investigation of the matter:
1. There’s a good chance that Hillary Clinton, the presumptive nominee of the Democratic Party, has committed a felony. And not just any felony, but a violation of the Espionage Act.
2. Given the consequences associated with a felon being nominated, or worse yet elected president, there is a strong national interest in a prompt determination by the government as to whether Clinton committed one or more felonies.
3. The inquiry under the Espionage Act (although out -dated) is still fairly straightforward. For example, under 18 U.S. Code § 793(f), the questions as I see them are (1) whether Clinton had possession or control of documents relating to the national defense; (2) whether she removed such information from its proper place of custody and/or delivered it to someone in violation of her trust; and (3) whether she acted with gross negligence.
4. The facts needed to answer these questions appear to have been uncovered. The task now is to decide whether these facts fit the legal definition of the crimes in question.
5. The task may not be easy, but it shouldn’t require much new digging for facts. The FBI is therefore probably in a position to determine quite soon whether Clinton violated the Espionage Act.
6. However, there are some issues under investigation that perhaps can’t be resolved without further digging.
For example, a complete investigation would decide who else at the State Department violated the Espionage Act. And as to Clinton, there may be other possible violations that depend on facts that have not fully been developed.
Do you see the problem? Items 1 and 2 militate strongly in favor of a quick resolution of the question whether Clinton violated the Espionage Act.
Items 3-5 suggest that a quick resolution is possible. But Item 6 indicates that a complete investigation of the kind the FBI is trained to conduct may be impossible to complete prior to Clinton’s nomination and possibly even before her election (assuming she wins).
The potential problem exists even in the absence of bad faith or foot dragging by bureaucrats eager to help Clinton run out the clock. The FBI prides itself in conducting thorough investigations. It doesn’t want to be less than exhaustive when conducting a high profile investigation of a presidential contender. Thus, it naturally will be disinclined to rush. Its inclination will be to conduct a gold-plated investigation — to dot every “i” and cross every “t.”
To make matters worse, the Justice Department is looking over the FBI’s investigation and must approve any prosecution of Clinton. Here’s where the possibility of bad faith compounds the problem.
The so called “Justice Department” lawyers can drag the process out by constantly asking new questions. The questions may be of interest; they may even be ones the FBI would answer if time were not of the essence. But answering them might well be unnecessary for purposes of determining whether Clinton violated the Espionage Act.
In any complex investigation, there are always loose ends. Attempting to tie them all up can tie an investigative agency in knots.
Given the need to determine sooner rather than later whether Hillary Clinton is a felon, it would be tragic if the FBI tied itself in knots going down every bunny trail associated with this matter. The perfect should not become the enemy of the good in an investigation of this urgency.
Yet there is reason to fear that it might.

(Hebrew: Teveryah), a city situated approximately at the mid-point of the
western shore of Lake Kinneret (the Sea of Galilee), is the largest urban
settlement in the Jordan Valley and serves as the administrative, cultural
and trade center of the surrounding region.
Built on a steep slope rising up from the lake, the city is spread over a relatively large area, with the highest point some 1,500 feet above the level of the lake, with consequent differences in temperature, rainfall and vegetation, even within the city limits.
The city was founded in the first century c.e. by Herod Antipas, son of Herod, king of Judea, on the remains of the biblical city of Rakkath (Joshua 19:5), and was named after the then-reigning Roman emperor, Tiberius. For about 150 years the city remained a Roman enclave, with its city administration organized on a Greek model and its population consisting mainly of laborers and artisans. During the second century, however, it was chosen by the Nasi (as the leader of the Jews was called) and the Sanhedrin (supreme court) as their place of residence, and for hundreds of years thereafter the city played a central role in the development of Jewish culture and tradition.
It remained the seat of the Nasi until the Arab conquest in the seventh century, and during this period the so-called "Palestinian Talmud" was actually composed there. In the seventh and eighth centuries, Tiberias was the home of the Masoretes, grammarians who established a definitive vocalization of the biblical text, as well as of the earliest group of post-biblical poets, the paytanim. The city suffered greatly during the Crusades, but it remained su fficiently intact to attract such a distinguished visitor as Moses Maimonides, who journeyed to Tiberias from Egypt during the last years of his life, and whose alleged tomb can be seen there to this day. In the 16th century the city was given as a gift to Don Joseph Nasi by the Turkish sultan, and he attempted to re-establish a Jewish center there (see Nasi, Gracia). Economic forces, however, favored the development of the more northernly city of Safed, and it was not until the middle of the 19th century that Tiberias began to thrive again as a Jewish settlement.
For a long time, the Jewish and Arab populations of Tiberias maintained relatively cordial and tolerant relations, but during the War of Independence in 1948, all the Arab inhabitants fled, leaving the city totally Jewish. Since then, Tiberias has become a major center of absorption of new immigrants to Israel, and today has a population of about 34,000 the majority of whom originate from the countries of North Africa and Eastern Europe.
The ancient part of the city is on the lake shore and on the hills above it there are new, modern housing projects. Tourism and recreation --- particularly in the winter when the climate is warm and sunny --- constitute Tiberias' principal economic foundation, with Lake Kinneret, the nearby hot springs, Roman and Crusader ruins, and tombs of saintly figures serving as the main attractions.

Faculty Mentor: Dr. Elizabeth LeBleu Dirk
Department: Center for Biomedical Engineering
Home Institution: The University of New Mexico
Research Interests: Biomedical Engineering/Tissue Engineering
I attended and graduated from the University of New Mexico in Spring 2016 with a Bachelor’s of Science in Biology, Chemistry minor. During my undergraduate years, I worked in an immuno-parasitology laboratory where I investigated a parasite transmission vector for a filarial eye worm in canines called Onchocerca lupi. It was later in my senior year that I realized I have an interest in the applications of engineering toward biological systems. Therefore, I have made the transition from biology to biomedical engineering. My goal is to gain the knowledge and experience from bioengineering to aid in improving the life qualities of people suffering from diseases. Currently, I am working in Dr. Elizabeth Dirk’s lab where we work with heart valves diseases and hope to use principles of tissue engineering to induce tissue growth. Beyond working in the lab, I like to play adult soccer league, working out, and enjoying many outdoors activities.


There’s no putting the self-publishing genie back in the bottle.
It’s become so easy for authors to get their work before the public that I actually wonder why some spend months and years writing query letters and creating submission packages.
As a result, it’s become increasingly important for authors to have a direct relationship with book vendors, without the publisher acting as buffer.
To that end, Kobo hosted an event for its authors on Wednesday. And I’m glad I went.
After plying the authors with delicious snacks and beer (a great way to win my heart) they demonstrated their easy-to-use Writing Life tool, geared towards making the eBook publishing and marketing experience a positive experience.
It looks like it will. Writing Life empowers authors with much needed sales information to help them target and plan their campaigns.
I haven’t had any experience with Writing Life, since my first book was placed in the catalogue by my publisher. But once The Orphans of the Creek up on the site, I’ll report right back in on how user-friendly and useful it is.
See you out there!
If you’re a writer, write. And if you’re a reader, keep reading. We need you!

Gut-wrenchingly sad and completely heart broken are the only two phrases I can think of that do justice to what I felt after watching Noah Baumbach's latest work Marriage Story.With this movie Noah manage's to create one of the most immersive film of recent history and channel career best performances from Scarlet Johansson and Adam Driver.
Although it's effect are out dated at the very least, The Princess Bride Stands the test of time with it's sharp humor, Quip dialogue and touching performances.
Whiplash is a good movie that manages to be good despite not trying anything daring or new.

Seventy bodies have been exhumed from a mass grave believed to be connected to the Srebrenica massacre of 1995.
The burial place in the north-eastern village of Snagavo was found this month after a tip-off.
It is the seventh mass grave to be discovered near Srebrenica, the scene of the deaths of 8,000 Muslim men and boys towards the end of the Bosnian war of 1992 to 1995.
‘Blindfolds, wires, wallets, watches of the victims of Srebrenica massacre have been found’, said a spokesman for the district attorney in charge of genocide crimes. The grave is thought to contain the remains of more than 100 people

Scheduled coach service providers reported an uptick in demand in the run up to the first in a series of rail strikes being held on 21 June, with additional departures put in place on some routes.
Stagecoach says that Megabus and its Scottish Citylink joint venture have each seen “a significant spike in bookings” for the period around the industrial action. As of Saturday 18 June, Megabus sales for the week of the strikes were 85% higher than the previous seven days. Stagecoach notes that the week after the strikes “is following a similar trend” and that thousands of extra seats have been added to Megabus provision.
National Express has also seen “a significant increase in both enquiries and bookings” for travel on its white coach network on and around the dates of rail strikes. As of Monday 20 June its services were over 65% sold out for that period, although sales were proceeding rapidly and the business expected that figure to rise to “over 85%.”
A spokesperson adds: “We are working hard to increase availability to meet additional demand where possible,” but cautions that the number of seats remaining available is “limited.”
FlixBus UK said on Monday 20 June that it had seen a 60% increase in demand for its services, “and rising.” The provider will increase the number of journeys, particularly on routes between London and Reading, Bristol, Cardiff and Plymouth, among other locations.
At the time of writing, further rail strikes were planned for Thursday 23 and Saturday 25 June. While some train services will operate on strike days, timetables and operating hours will be severely curtailed. Some rail services will also be reduced on days following the strikes.
