Siren Call: The 'Distinctly High Voice' That Led MH17 Sleuths To A Russian Missile Suspect

Oleg Vladimirovich Ivannikov, an officer of the Russian military intelligence agency's (GRU) Main Directorate of the General Staff, took a lot of precautions to cover up his identity. But he couldn't hide his "atypical" voice.
The 51-year-old has been fingered in a joint investigation by open-source researchers at Bellingcat, The Insider, and the McClatchy Washington bureau, "with very high certainty" as being a missile specialist who was in charge of military operations in eastern Ukraine during an "undercover deployment" by Russia at the time of the downing of Malaysia Airlines Flight 17 in 2014.
It says Ivannikov is sought by the Dutch-based international Joint Investigating Team (JIT) tasked with identifying suspects in the missile attack.

Bellingcat also identifies Ivannikov as a "reclusive" senior defense official in a breakaway region of Georgia that enjoyed Russian military support during a lightning war for independence a decade ago.
The investigation connected several of the dots based on documentation to lead them to the man with the call sign "Orion." But it was several phone conversations that helped fill out the picture, including a crucial one on July 13, 2015, that Bellingcat said was "most likely" directly related to the downing of MH17. The route and convoy described in the call matched that of the Russian Buk missile launcher thought to have been used to bring down the passenger aircraft in the skies over Ukraine.
"The Bellingcat-led investigating team used primarily open-source data sources to reconstruct a curriculum vitae of Oleg Ivannikov," the research group said in a May 25 report that identifies Ivannikov, who is also known under the alias Andrey Ivanovich Laptev, according to Novaya Gazeta.
"The military adviser who went by the name Andrey Ivanych...possesses two traits that matches the 'Andrey Ivanovich' from the intercepted calls: a distinctly high voice, and a background in military intelligence," it added. Ivanych is a colloquial variant of the patronymic "Ivanovich."
Bellingcat founder Eliot Higgins (center) presents a picture of Russian military officer Oleg Ivannikov at a press conference on May 25.
Bellingcat said it first attempted to identify the persona behind Orion by identifying all possible candidates with matching names.
But since Andrey Ivanovich is a relatively common name-patronymic combination among Russian names and the unlikelihood he would use his real name in communication on open phone lines, investigators needed a different starting point for the identification process.
Using phone intercepts, they traced the number of the call, which eventually was traced back to a user named Orion with an anonymous prepaid SIM card.
"This discovery provided Bellingcat with an initial confirmation that the persona behind 'Orion' is indeed known as 'Andrey Ivanovich' and plausibly linked to GRU," the report said.
After further investigation that tied Ivannikov to the phone number, researchers eventually were able to begin attempts at getting a voice sample to back up suspicions that this was their man.
Eventually, they reached Ivannikov on the pretext they were trying to contact another man with the same name who was well-known as the head of a Russian NGO.
During the conversation, Bellingcat said, Ivannikov implicitly confirmed his name by joking that while he shares the name of the NGO head, he could only wish to be as famous.
"Despite the fact that both audio fragments are too short for forensic computer-assisted audio analysis, a linguistic and acoustic comparison of the two voices compellingly points to the voices belonging to the same person, as both samples' high-pitched timbre and vocal intonation are highly idiosyncratic and rare among male voices," the report said.

If you have been keeping up with the news lately, then you have probably heard about the recent regulations requiring Waukesha radon mitigation to many homes. The regulations come from HUD. HUD has made it mandatory that every multi-family home financed through them must have a radon test. Every unit must be tested to ensure that the area is safe for all tenants. If a test returns high levels of gas, Waukesha radon mitigation will be necessary.
In order to protect your home, you must first realize the extent this gas has taken our health. This gas is responsible for more than 20,000 deaths each year. This is more than drunk driving. Additionally, this gas is responsible for approximately one out of every seven cases of lung cancer. As lung cancer is a health concern that builds up over time, this gas is known as the silent killer, and without proper treatment can effect the lives of many.
If you are like many residents of Waukesha, then now is the time you must search for an answer for radon mitigation. It is obvious that if you have a multi-family home that you must at least test in order to stay in line with the regulations. There are two types of tests that can be done. A short term test will provide results in as little as two to nine days, while a long term test may take a while longer. While the long term test may take several months, it will boast more accurate results. Be sure to keep your doors and windows closed as much as possible throughout this entire process. With your doors and windows closed, you will get a better reading from your test, and know for certain whether or not Waukesha radon mitigation is truly needed.
Now that you know for certain whether or not any units are affected by this gas, you will be able to have a radon mitigation company properly treat your Waukesha multi-family home. S.W.A.T. Environmental is local to the Waukesha area, and is the nation's most trusted radon mitigation company. We have decades of experience in the industry, and will be able to properly reduce your levels of radon gas.
We begin by pinpointing the exact location of entry for the radon gas. As this location is pinpointed, we will be able to provide a more accurate and targeted results by installing the radon mitigation system in this area. We specialize in low visibility systems, so you will hardly even notice your Waukesha radon mitigation system is installed. All of our professionals are properly trained and certified to provide the most effective results in a timely manner. Contact us today for a free quote on Waukesha radon mitigation. You have nothing to lose. Keep up with the HUD regulations, and make your home a safe place for all.

What is scarcity in economics class 11?
SamuelsonCalled the father of modern economics, Samuelson became the first American to win the Nobel Prize in Economics (1970) for his work to transform the fundamental nature of the discipline..
An economic activity is a process that, based on inputs, leads to the manufacture of a good or the provision of a service. … may carry out one or more economic activities, but each unit has only one main activity.
Scarcity, or the lack of sufficient resources, affects virtually all aspects of life, as people must constantly acquire wealth to pay for needs that are in short supply. … Without scarcity, goods and services have no value because they are abundant. Scarce items are said to be at low supply.
The easiest way to distinguish between the two is that scarcity is a naturally occurring limitation on the resource that cannot be replenished. A shortage is a market condition of a particular good at a particular price. Over time, the good will be replenished and the shortage condition resolved.
The three-sector model in economics divides economies into three sectors of activity: extraction of raw materials (primary), manufacturing (secondary), and service industries which exist to facilitate the transport, distribution and sale of goods produced in the secondary sector (tertiary).
An economist is an expert who studies the relationship between a society's resources and its production or output. Economists study societies ranging from small, local communities to entire nations and even the global economy.
Galileo GalileiModern physics/Fathers
Scarcity refers to the basic economic problem, the gap between limited – that is, scarce – resources and theoretically limitless wants. This situation requires people to make decisions about how to allocate resources efficiently, in order to satisfy basic needs and as many additional wants as possible.
There are two types of scarcity, absolute, and relative.
Scarcity sentence examplesTrue scarcity is uncommon. … Through the resultant scarcity of labor, much land fell out of cultivation. … But in a world without scarcity, socialism can't even exist. … Emigration has, however, recently assumed such proportions as to lead to scarcity of labor and rise of wages in Italy itself.More items…
The four essential economic activities are resource management, the production of goods and services, the distribution of goods and services, and the consumption of goods and services.
Causes of scarcityDemand-induced – High demand for resource.Supply-induced – supply of resource running out.Structural scarcity – mismanagement and inequality.No effective substitutes.
Scarcity falls into three distinctive categories: demand-induced, supply-induced, and structural. Demand-induced scarcity happens when the demand of the resource increases and the supply stays the same.
Opportunities are always more valuable and exciting when they are scarce and less available. … Scarcity drives people to action, making us act quickly for fear of missing out on an opportunity. Potentially losing something before we've even had an opportunity to possess it drives people to action.
The Law of Scarcity simply states: If what we desire "appears" to be in limited supply, the perception of its value increases significantly. … You don't need to go any further than a television commercial or piece of written advertising to see the most commonly used semantics incorporating the principles of scarcity.
Scarcity dictates that economic decisions must be made regularly in order to manage the availability of resources to meet human needs. … Coal is used to create energy; the limited amount of this resource that can be mined is an example of scarcity. Those without access to clean water are experiencing a scarcity of water.
Scarcity increases negative emotions, which affect our decisions. Socioeconomic scarcity is linked to negative emotions like depression and anxiety. viii These changes, in turn, can impact thought processes and behaviors. • People who are anxious or sad tend to be less patient; that is, they value smaller, short-term.
Microeconomics is a branch of Economics that contemplate the attributes of decision makers within the economy, such as households, individuals and enterprises. … Microeconomics differ from the study of Macroeconomics, which considers the economy as an entity.
5.0. Scarcity is caused by society not having enough resources to produce all the things people would like to have. The affects of scarcity are that we must make economic decisions regarding how to satisfy seemingly unlimited and competing wants through the careful use of relatively scarce resources.
If we only had more resources we could produce more goods and services and satisfy more of our wants. This will reduce scarcity and give us more satisfaction (more good and services). All societies therefore try to achieve economic growth. A second way for a society to handle scarcity is to reduce its wants.
The problem of scarcity can never be resolved. It is the fundamental problem that makes the study of economics possible. … Scarcity is the condition that arises because people have unlimited wants but only have limited resources with which to fulfill those wants.
Five Categories of Economic ActivityRaw Materials and Primary Sector Jobs. Physical resources that are coaxed or extracted from the earth provide the basis for the primary sphere of economic activity. … Manufacturing and Industry. … The Service Industry. … The Intellectual Sector. … The Quinary Sector.
Former Prime Minister PV Narasimha Rao was a "great son of the soil" and he can truly be called the father of economic reforms in India as he had both the vision and the courage to push them forward, Manmohan Singh, who was finance minister in his cabinet, said on Friday.
Scarcity: Refers to limited supply of resources in the economy in relation to demand, this is due to the unlimited wants of human beings.

Meeting with a Union Representative, learning about your rights and how to go about forming your Union in your workplace is the first step. Then, you need a sufficient number of employees to sign Authorization Cards. The NLRB requires that at least 30% of the affected employees sign cards before they will conduct an election. A fair minded employer may voluntarily recognize a Union as the employees' bargaining representative if a majority of the affected employees have signed Authorization Cards. THEREFORE, THE FIRST STEP IS TO SIGN A MAJORITY AS SOON AS POSSIBLE.
Once a petition has been filed, the NLRB will schedule a "unit hearing" to determine the eligible voters. At this time your employer will begin the anti-union campaign in an effort to convince you that you don't need a Union. Look for raises and other promises of benefit increases. Look for leaflets at work and letters sent to your home; anything in an effort to convince you to vote against your Union.

The Minister with Responsibility for Defence, Mr Paul Kehoe, T.D.,attended the 5th annual Defence Forces' Veterans Day in the National Museum of Ireland, Collins Barracks, Dublin. This event was organised by the Defence Forces to acknowledge the contribution that former servicemen and women have provided to the State.
In recognising this service, the Minister stated that
"I extend a very special welcome to former servicemen and women of the Defence Forces. Today is your day – a day in which the Defence Forces acknowledges your past service both at home and around the world. "
The Minister went on to say "This is a very special year for the Defence Forces as it marks significant anniversaries in relation to Ireland's UN peacekeeping role – it is the 60th anniversary of Ireland's first participation in a UN peacekeeping mission and it is the 40th anniversary of our first deployment to Lebanon as part of the UNIFIL mission."
He added that "for 60 years now the men and women from the Irish Defence Forces have contributed to the cause of peace all around the world in places like Lebanon, the Congo, the Golan Heights, Chad, Liberia, East Timor and Syria serving with honour and distinction. Today, Irish troops are deployed in UN, EU and NATO led missions in Africa, Europe and the Middle East. Currently, there are almost 640 members of the Permanent Defence Force serving in 9 overseas missions, including UNIFIL, UNDOF and Operation Sophia in the Mediterranean Sea".
The Minister also acknowledged that "the commitment, service and loyalty by members of the Defence Forces while on overseas service has contributed to the high regard in which Ireland is held within the international community." He commended members of the Defence Forces, whether serving or retired, for that commitment and thanked them, their families and loved ones for the inevitable sacrifices that this has involved.
Minister Kehoe concluded by remembering "the military personnel who paid the ultimate sacrifice in the cause of peace. Many of you here today will remember lost friends and comrades, our soldiers, who did not come home. We will not forget them."

Our Lessons Learned
Lessons from the Johnson impeachment fiasco
President Andrew Johnson
In May 1868, the Republican-controlled United States Senate failed, by one vote shy of the required two-thirds, to convict Democrat President Andrew Johnson (who ran with Abraham Lincoln on the National Union ticket for Lincoln's reelection) on articles of impeachment.
The Senate, which didn't yet include representation by 10 of the 13 (yes, 13, counting Missouri and Kentucky) Southern States that were formerly part of the Confederate States of America, voted on three of the original 11 articles drawn up by the House. The trial lasted three months.
Today's popular narrative goes that Johnson was simply a racist who stood in the way of the noble Republicans trying to bring equality to the freed blacks. The truth, as usual, is more complex. Johnson was a budget hawk opposed to some of Congress' heavy spending, and he favored a more lenient approach to the defeated South, as opposed to the punitive rule by the gun and bayonet that the radical element of the Republican majority in Congress howled for. Johnson, a Southern Unionist during the late war, had supported emancipation of the slaves, but he opposed hard centralization. He said "there is an attempt to concentrate the power of the government in the hands of a few, and thereby bring about a consolidation, which is equally dangerous and objectionable with separation."
Part of what gets him in trouble with the "presentists" of today is that he vetoed a bill to make the Freedman's Bureau permanent, at a price tag of $12 million per year (about $230 million in today's dollars). He did so for both constitutional and fiscal reasons. Of course, in today's America, Johnson's actions are often judged through the prism of race alone, but that is an unfair oversimplification.
Johnson solidified his enmity with the Republicans when he accused Congress of seeking to destroy the fundamental principles of the Constitution, along with some other blunt words in his speeches. He was certainly guilty of speaking his mind. Tactful Johnson was not when it came to talking about his political opponents. His enemies despised him anyway, because of his views, and Johnson – who was largely regarded as unrefined and course – only stoked that fire.
When Johnson sacked Secretary of War Edwin Stanton, in seeming violation of the Tenure of Office Act (which Stanton himself had helped to write to save his job), the infuriated Republicans thought they finally had him. The House charged the President with "high crimes and misdemeanors" in 11 articles of impeachment. The charges centered on Stanton's firing, but they also included Johnson being Mr. Meany Pants toward the Republican Congress in his speeches, and was formalized in impeachment articles 10 and 11.
After a three month trial, which covered all the articles of impeachment, the Senate voted on the last article first, "bringing disgrace and ridicule to the presidency by his aforementioned words and actions." The vote to convict was 35 yeas to 19 nays, but was still one vote shy of the required two-thirds majority, the threshold for a conviction then being 36. Ten Republicans joined with all nine Democrat Senators in voting not guilty.
The Republican leadership was beside itself and the Senate took a 10 day recess before voting on any other articles in the hopes that someone could be sweet talked or strong armed into changing their vote.
In the time between the first acquittal and the resumption of the impeachment trial, evidence exists that There is evidence that Senators were offered bribes of position and cash to change their vote to guilty at the next go-round. As one can imagine, the Republican Senators were leaned on pretty heavily by their Party to get with the program and impeach the President. Those who didn't paid the political price later on, as none of them were ever elected to office again under the GOP banner.
When it came down to it, the vote was exactly the same on the next two articles as it had been for the first one: 35-19, guilty to not guilty. After that the trial was adjourned and Johnson finished out his term.
Johnson's position regarding the removal of Secretary of War Stanton was later vindicated by the U.S. Supreme Court, which ruled that Presidents can remove cabinet members without Congressional approval. As to his harsh language that hurt some Congressional feelings, well, that has since been viewed as no good reason to impeach.
Senator Lyman Trumbull, R-Illinois, later explained why he voted against impeachment:
"Once set the example of impeaching a President for what, when the excitement of the hour shall have subsided, will be regarded as insufficient causes, as several of those now alleged against the President were decided to be by the House of Representatives only a few months since, and no future President will be safe who happens to differ with a majority of the House and two thirds of the Senate on any measure deemed by them important, particularly if of a political character. Blinded by partisan zeal, with such an example before them, they will not scruple to remove out of the way any obstacle to the accomplishment of their purposes, and what then becomes of the checks and balances of the Constitution, so carefully devised and so vital to its perpetuity? They are all gone."
Johnson was really impeached by the House because he stood in the way of a radical agenda of expanding federal power, punishing the people of the South, and because he held his ideological foes in utter contempt. He was acquitted by the Senate because enough Senators understood the potential ramifications on future presidencies and had the character and the courage to do the right thing for the country.
The greatest lesson of the Andrew Johnson impeachment saga is that Congress doesn't get to impeach a United States President simply because they don't like him, his style, his views, the way he runs his office, or the fact that he stands in opposition to their political or ideological agenda, no matter their pretended reasons.

Q: How to HTTP POST a Blob to a different domain? I have some Blob() object. I want to upload somewhere else (a website that handle user upload through forms).
I can put them in a FormData and send them through an XMLHttpRequest object, but then I can't read the ajax response, because I'm blocked by the same origin policy of the ajax call.
How can I get around this? Is there some way to do a regular upload without using ajax? Is there a way to deal with that "same origin policy" that will work on recent versions of Chrome and Firefox?
edit: Not sure this is a duplicate: I don't control the server being posted, so I'm not OK with just "setting the same origin policy on both domains".

A: In most cases when someone is trying to use AJAX across domains but is blocked by the same origin policy, it is recommended to AJAX to your own PHP page, and then use cURL to send that data to a different site.

Trekking opportunities in Sikkim are excellent, but as previously mentioned, traffic is mostly concentrated on one trek. The Master Plan for Trekking, Sikkim (INTACH, 2002) provides a comprehensive overview of the treks that are available and describes a total of 22. Its recommendations are fully endorsed, and this document should be used as the main reference for this subcomponent. Under the project four international standard trek routes will be created and marketed. These may be existing treks that need improvement or new trails. A number of smaller treks linked to villages will also be developed or improved, many of which have already been identified by local tourism committees.
The Green Lake Trek: Lachen-Zemu-Green Lake; around 18km.: Foreigners are allowed but it takes a long time to obtain permits. These restrictions must be eased.
The Uttaray-Singelila Trek: around 56km. This is already considered one of the world?s top treks; however, since the Maoist threat in recent years, the trek has been closed as it entered into Nepal. A new trail has been found routed only within Sikkim, but it needs development.
Other routes with a total length of 76km will be considered for development. In this connection, development of the trekking route will be 260km in total under the Project. The following selection criteria will be applied for the other trekking routes development.
The trek starts, ends, and crosses through areas populated by local communities so that income can be generated for them.
There are enough attractions on the way to compete internationally with other routes.
The route has an appropriate degree of difficulty to attract international trekkers, but is not dangerous.
The base camp is easily accessible.
The trekking route does not provide any negative impact to the surrounding natural environments.
The trekking route selection will be carried out by two two-person teams comprising each an expert trekker and a specialist with trekking market knowledge such as a tour operator. They will spend two months reconnaissance survey of potential treks and producing a report. The report must present the development requirements of the best treks in detail, including maintenance requirements and costs as well as safety measures that need to be put in place. These experts will be identified by the EMC and contacted directly. Careful attention should be placed on finding out from agencies such as the Forestry Department, the Tourism Department, and the Rural Management and Development Department (RMDD) their initiatives and plans to develop trek routes so as not to duplicate efforts or to look for opportunities to collaborate. However, collaboration should only be entered into if the criteria described above are abided by.
Contractors will be invited to develop the routes. The proposals will be evaluated by the EMC, and one or several firms will be contracted. Trek development will be scheduled over the project period. It is important that these are wilderness treks and that no concrete or paving stones are used, just natural trails. The equivalent of 30 km treks, requiring 5 days walking and 4 nights camping one-way should be developed. Some of the treks will interlink, providing the possibility of longer routes. A total of 16 campsites will be developed or improved on the routes. Signage will be included. Areas will be cleared to establish camping sites at appropriate places. These will include access to water, the construction of a shelter for porters, a shelter for the kitchen, and eco-friendly toilets. Maintenance of the trekking routes will be financed by the Forest Department and maintenance work will be done by EDCs under joint forest management scheme.
One of the main actions will be for the EMC to invite national and international tour operators for an exposure trip so that they are made aware of the new trekking opportunities in Sikkim. This will be funded out of the EMC?s public relations budget with contribution in-kind from the industry.


Introduction Fever is associated with a poor outcome in severely brain-injured patients, and its control is one of the therapies used in this condition. But, fever suppression may promote infection, and severely brain-injured patients are frequently exposed to infectious diseases, particularly ventilator-associated pneumonia (VAP). Therefore, we designed a study to explore the role of a fever control protocol in VAP development during neuro-intensive care.MethodsAn observational study was performed on severely brain-injured patients hospitalized in a university ICU. The primary goal was to assess whether fever control was a risk factor for VAP in a prospective cohort in which a fever control protocol was applied and in a historical control group. Moreover, the density of VAP incidence was compared between the two groups. The statistical analysis was based on a competing risk model multivariate analysis.ResultsThe study included 189 brain-injured patients (intervention group, n¿=¿98, and historical control group, n¿=¿91). The use of a fever control protocol was an independent risk factor for VAP (hazard ratio 2.73, 95% confidence interval [1.38, 5.38; P¿=¿0.005]). There was a significant increase in the incidence of VAP in patients treated with a fever control protocol (26.1 versus 12.5 VAP cases per 1000 days of mechanical ventilation). In cases in which a fever control protocol was applied for >3 days, we observed a higher rate of VAP in comparison with the rate among patients treated for ¿3 days.ConclusionFever control in brain-injured patients was a major risk factor for VAP occurrence, particularly when applied for >3 days.

Is Our Interest in Chelsea's Wedding Sexist?
Is Our Interest in Chelsea's Wedding Sexist?
Rebecca Traister of Salon takes a hit at the media for frothing over Chelsea Clinton's wedding. Given all of her other accomplishments, why, Traister asks, do we fixate on this one day?
The fevered fetishization of the marital day is not just irritating, it's destructive. It reproduces attitudes about personal – and especially female – achievement that are far past their sell date: that marrying is the goal toward which all of us strive, that our weddings are somehow the most exalted expressions of our accomplishments and of ourselves. That they are proof, validation, some sure sign that we turned out OK.
Chelsea is unlikely wedding gossip fodder for many reasons-she's been with the same man for a decade, she doesn't seem to care about fashion or fame, and she has strained hard her whole life to be as stable and un-gossipworthy as possible. (Listen to the DoubleX podcast on the Chelsea wedding here .) But her gender is not one of them.
It's a strain to say that the media cares more about women's weddings than men's. If anything, the culture has moved in the opposite direction. A wedding is interesting if either the bride or groom is intriguing, and it doesn't matter which. People magazine is just as likely to give a lavish spreadsheet to Eddie Murphy's wedding as to Jessica Alba's. They gave almost no attention to the marriage of the Bush girls. The most slavishly covered nuptials in recent memory were JFK Jr's. And you think when Al Gore's son gets married it will go quietly?
The attention given to Chelsea's wedding seems strange because she so obviously does not warrant it. But that's because it's not about her at all. Nobody in the fashion world really cares if she will wear a Vera Wang or an Oscar de la Renta . But they care about her parents. Chelsea has always been famous unwillingly, and by proxy, and this is the latest example. What holds our interest here is the idea of a second-generation Clinton marriage, with all the immense baggage it has inherited.

Reality star Kylie Jenner is a well-known name among girls who looks to celebrities for gaining effective fashion sense. Jenner especially has made her name on constantly switching up her look with different colors. It's a way for her to experiment for fun without commitment.
But apparently, that expectation for constant hair changes has spiraled into a pretty dark place, and on last night's Life of Kylie the 20-year-old beauty guru said: She's not here to be pressured into changing her looks and wants to start doing her hair the way that makes her happy.
Kyler recently took this stand about frequent hair makeups & looks change. "I don't want to disappoint anybody, but I just want my hair long and black and pretty,".
With a makeup empire that's made $420 million in the 18 months it's existed, it's no surprise that the heat is on for Jenner to constantly churn out beauty evolutions. But it seems she's done keeping up with that now. "I don't want to be a weirdo," she continued. "I don't want to pull up with purple hair, I'm over it. I'm over keeping up with this lifestyle of crazy hair and wigs and sh-t.", she said.
Well, these words of Kylie Jenner gives a nice message for girls to stay natural with themselves. Also, One thing we can expect: Jenner is always right on the beauty cutting edge, so we'll be on high alert to see what she does with her look next.

Once known as Dixie, Texas, Barksdale was originally settled in the late 1840s and was named for Lewis Barksdale, landowner. The name Dixie was borrowed from an existing army camp in the 1860s. More settlers arrived in the 1860s, although Lewis Barksdale himself didn�t arrive until 1869.
In the 1880s there were enough letter-writers in Dixie to request a post office, but they found the name Dixie already in use. The application was resubmitted under the name Barksdale, which was granted in 1882.
Although the population was a mere 20 people in 1884, the town had three stores � one a grocery and two of the general variety. A school was opened in a private home but in 1887 it had its own building which was also used as a church on Sundays.
By 1900, the community had grown to 100 residents served by businesses including a gin and gristmill. A bank opened and the town was wired for phone service.
Barksdale managed to get through the Great Depression without too much population shrinkage and throughout the 1940s it held steady at around 200 residents.
But the 1850 census counted just 150 � probably due to postwar mobility. The prosperous 50s added a church in 1950 and a new high school was constructed in 1957 in anticipation of the crop of baby-boom childen.
In the early 1970s, it had declined to just 71 residents and two struggling businesses. But Barksdale was not to be counted out. Several subdivision were built in the late 1980s and the population had rebounded to a new high of over 600 people. It grew to nearly 1,100 for the 2000 census.
Named for Camp Dixie, a Texas Ranger post near Military Road to Fort Inge (42 miles southeast). First civilian settler was Jerusha Sanchez, midwife for Nueces Canyon area, widowed by Indians in the 1870s. Next came Elizabeth Hill, whose eldest son Jim was a military scout. Lewis Barksdale, a veteran of Republic of Texas wars, opened a ranch on his 1876 land grant. The J. R. (Bob) Sweeten family established a store that became the focus for the expanding community. When a post office was created in 1882 and named for Lewis Barksdale, the name Dixie disappeared from use.


Cy Tottleben graduated from Indiana University with a BA in history. She currently manages a Kmart store in Galesburg, Ill. Cy has spent the past 20 years educating others on the three R's — reusing, reducing and recycling, which has earned her the nickname of "The Crazy Recycling Lady." Her current project is affecting change in her business by greening her store and spreading these practices throughout the corporation. Cy resides in Toulon, Ill., with her husband and daughter.
Those annoying packets have a multitude of household uses.

This is not a Guimard: theatre armchairs
Cast iron theatre armchairs with folding seats, similar to those created by Guimard for the Salle Humbert de Romans, have appeared several times on the art market over the last three years. In this article, thanks to our German correspondent Michael Schrader, we present them and compare them to the original armchairs. In a future article, we will describe the original armchairs in more detail before tracing the history of their rediscovery in the seventies.
In 2018, the German auction house Mehlis in Plauen offered two of these cast iron concert chairs. They were then described as reproductions from the end of the 20th century, based on a drawing by Guimard around 1901. Unsold with a reserve price of €900 each, they also failed to find a new buyer at a later auction with a reserve price of €500 each.

An identical armchair is currently on sale on eBay for €1239, by the German antique dealer Denes Szy from Düsseldorf, who also offers it for sale directly through his shop for €1350. This shop originally had two copies on sale under the description "Cinema Art Nouveau folding chairs France, variant or after a drawing by Hector Guimard [1867-1942] for the Salle Humbert de Romans in Paris 1901. »
All these chairs come from a privately purchased lot from the Furthof Antikmöbel shop, which in 2017 offered twelve copies for sale under the following description: "Set of 12 Art Nouveau concert chairs, France circa 1900. The cast iron cheeks are attributed to Hector Guimard (1867 Lyon – 1942 New York City). The folding seat, backrest and upholstered armrests were added in the past". According to the site page, of this set of twelve armchairs, five have already been sold, two have been converted into benches and five more can be purchased for €850 each. According to the seller, the seats come from a family of circus artists who used to tour Europe and bought the set of twelve seats at the time. No further information is available.
A view of all twelve theatre armchairs originally proposed by Furthof Antikmöbel. Note that the backrest is then placed upside down.
A view of all twelve theatre armchairs originally proposed by Furthof Antikmöbel.
Each of these armchairs is 98 cm high, 75 cm deep, 65 cm wide and weighs approximately 24 kg. Each consists of two cast iron side legs, a wooden backrest and a folding seat. The side castings are 53.5 cm wide and 98 cm high, while those of the Guimard armchairs are only 90 cm high. They are also thinner than those of the original Guimard armchairs. Their modeling is closely based on that of Guimard's cast iron but is less detailed and even shows notable differences, especially at the upper end and in the foot area which is less complex and also much longer than those of the original armchairs. This last provision was probably adopted with the intention of giving more stability to the seats, but in reality proves to be useless. And unlike the original armchairs, there are no vertical holes in the cast iron to fix them to the floor. All these armchairs are presented individually with two side castings for each one and not in a row with n+1 castings for n armchairs. However, as in the original arrangement, a bar connects the two side cast irons in their lower area to increase stability. The cast irons, painted in a clay-brown colour, show striking traces of wear and tear everywhere, even in places that cannot be reached by natural wear and tear, suggesting that they were created artificially.

The shapes of the seat, armrests and backrest follow the shapes of the original armchairs quite closely. They are upholstered with foam (whereas the original was made of horsehair) and covered with red-brown synthetic leather (instead of the original green moleskin), which is riveted to the wooden parts. In contrast to the side castings, the wood of the backrest, which appears to be beech or fruit wood, shows almost no signs of wear and tear. The direction in which the backrest is fixed (using modern brass screws) is also variable. In the old photographs of the Salle Humbert de Romans, it can be seen that the curved horizontal crossbeam is pointing downwards. But in the illustration in the Guimard catalogue of the Saint-Dizier foundry, the backrest is facing the other way, as in the photographs of the series of twelve armchairs from the Furthof Antikmöbel shop (see above). It is therefore quite possible that this illustration served as a model for the armchairs presented here.

All in all, these armchairs therefore give the impression of a modern reproduction inspired by the original design of the Guimard concert armchairs. The reference to Guimard's design is recognisable and yet the quality of the execution is only modest compared to the original. However, as far as we know, it is not clear whether these chairs were actually produced to be sold as period Guimard concert chairs. On the contrary, according to the description of the dealer Furthof Antikmöbel, a commercial use in a circus setting seems quite conceivable and this small series of these chairs could therefore have been manufactured with this in mind at the end of the 20th century. However, their successive resales risk seeing them fully attributed to Guimard.

The Bravest 10-Year Old (and What We All Can Learn from Him)
Posted in LGBT Rights, News, Schools/Youth, tagged arkansas, LGBT Rights, marriage, obama, parents, patriotism, pledge of allegiance, school, will phillips, youth on November 18, 2009| 1 Comment »
Will Phillips is a 10-year-old 5th grader in West Fork, Arkansas who refuses to stand up and say the pledge of allegiance at school (Arkansas Times article here). His reason? LGBT people do not have the same rights as other people, and as he says "I really don't feel that there's currently liberty and justice for all." Let me just reiterate two important points: (a) he's 10 and (b) he lives in Arkansas. This brilliant 10-year-old wants to be a lawyer when he grows up, and to him freedom of speech means "The freedom to disagree. That's what I think pretty much being an American represents." His parents, who also sound like amazing people, are totally supportive of Will and are not trying to stifle him or prevent him from speaking out at all. Unfortunately for all of his bravery, Will is facing homophobic teasing from his classmates and threats from homophobics everywhere.
I think we can all learn a big lesson from Will. At 10, this little boy has more courage than many (or most) adults in this country. He has the courage to act against the beliefs of his teachers, classmates, and many in his community, because he truly believes that we, as Americans, are not living up to the meaning of the pledge of allegiance. Will deserves our full support, and he has something to teach all of us. If we all started acting like this on a regular basis, people will start to notice and change may just start to happen even faster. I hope Obama learns a lesson from Will as well – that if one little boy can stand up (or sit down as the case may be) against so much evil in this world, then the President of the United States can certainly push back against the conservatives who are trying to keep him from making policies that support the rights of women and the LGBT community in this country. Furthermore, Will is also sending a message of hope to all of the LGBT youth in this country who may be afraid to speak our or reveal their dissatisfaction with their lack of rights.
I am in awe of this little boy, and I hope that we all can start following in his example by questioning authority and refusing to participate in certain "patriotic" acts just because we are told we have to.
Watch Will (and see for yourself how brilliant and fabulous he is) on CNN:

Today has been a sad day. I had high hopes that Maine would vote to allow gay marriage, and we would be celebrating a victory today. Unfortunately, the Yes on 1 campaign won out, with numbers strikingly similar to the Prop 8 numbers in California last year. As Kate Kendell from NCLR said, this deja vu is far from comforting. It is so disheartening to know that there are still so many people in this country believe that same-sex couples do not deserve the same rights as different sex couples. Of course, no one can ever take away the ability of people to form loving, long-term relationships with same-sex partners, but every state that takes away the right to marry continues to impress upon us that there are those out there who do not think LGBT are as deserving, or not full citizens in some way.
Sometimes I wonder if the marriage battle is worth all of the money and energy, because the lack of progress is so frustrating, but then I step back and think about everything that comes along with marriage. Without marriage, same-sex couples cannot protect basic parts of their relationship. Without federal recognition of marriage, same-sex couples are not entitled to the same healthcare benefits, cannot secure the same medical rights, or death benefits, and often have trouble securing parentage rights over the children they raise together. I like to think that marriage is just a meaningless status, but when the government makes so many rights contingent upon it, marriage becomes so much more. And unless we get rid of the institution of marriage all together, I think it will continue to be important to fight as hard as we can for marriage equality (not, of course, at the expense of anything else).
And just a word on blame. Everyone seems eager to blame someone or something for the disappointment in Maine, but I really don't think this is the way to go. The people who worked on the No on 1 campaign worked incredibly hard, and gave all they had to turn out the vote and to convince people to vote no. In order to get the numbers where we want them to be, everyone needs to step up, and not just in the states where the battle happens to be centered. Everyone who thinks that same-sex couples deserve the right to marry (and everyone who thinks that the LGBT community deserves every right straight people have, for that matter) needs to take some time to talk to the people they know who don't share those beliefs. It will never be possible to suceed if everyone is not participating in the effort.
On the bright side, we will hopefully see a victory in Washington (although the numbers are a little too close for me to be totally satisfied), and there was also victory in Kalmazoo, MI. Houston will (hopefully) have a lesbian mayor, as will Chapel Hill, NC, and Detroit elected an openly gay city council president. Despite the loss in Maine, progress continues to occur.
Now that the election is over, I urge you to continue to move forward and fight for the passage of ENDA, which will secure federal employment protections for LGBT people. If it passes (which it can), it will be an incredible sign of progress and hope. Contact your congressperson to urge them to support it.
Equality Rings

As an alternative to purity rings, the National Marriage Boycott has created Equality Rings. Members wear these on their ring finger as a symbol of committment to not get married until DOMA is repealed. As the co director of the boycott states:
We wanted to create a movement that enabled straight people to show their support for LGBT rights, and we wanted this movement to have the capacity to rapidly expand in a financially sustainable way. The rings allow us to finance our expansion, while creating a recognizable symbol for our cause.

DOMA to be Repealed?
Posted in LGBT Rights, News, tagged doma, enda, lgbt, marriage, nclr, obama on September 15, 2009| Leave a Comment »
The Respect for Marriage Act was introduced in the House, which would repeal DOMA (the Defense of Marriage Act) which provides federal recognition for heterosexual married couples only.
As Kate Kendell at the NCLR explains:
The Respect for Marriage Act would repeal both sections 2 and 3 of DOMA. Section 2 creates an exception to the full faith and credit clause for married same-sex couples. The Respect for Marriage Act would eliminate that provision, but it would leave each state free to decide whether to recognize marriages of same-sex couples from other states. Section 3 excludes same-sex spouses from all federal benefits and protections, including Social Security survivor benefits, the right to file joint taxes, and the right to petition for permanent residence for a foreign spouse. The Respect for Marriage Act would require that the federal government treat all married couples equally.
Our friend and partner Jason Bartlett from the National Black Justice Coalition reminds us of what exactly DOMA has meant for our community. "DOMA is an egregious piece of legislation as it codifies discrimination into federal law. As African Americans, we know all too well the injustices that laws such as this impose on our communities and our families and we are sensitive to the federal government trying to define our families. Let us consign the mistakes of the past to history and move forward together. We call on Congress to pass the Respect to Marriage Act as we continue to fight for our civil rights."
NCLR is proud to have worked in close cooperation with other groups and lead co-sponsors to help define the scope of the bill to repeal DOMA and to secure federal respect for the marriages of same-sex couples. We support the legislative repeal, as well as the legal overturn, of DOMA.
President Obama has made it clear that he, too, supports an end to DOMA. On June 17, 2009, President Barack Obama said, "I stand by my long-standing commitment to work with Congress to repeal the so-called Defense of Marriage Act. It's discriminatory, it interferes with states' rights, and it's time we overturned it." The President most recently reiterated his support for the repeal of DOMA in an August 17, 2009 White House statement.
This may be a long shot, but I'm keeping my fingers crossed. After all, with Obama in the White House, there's really no excuse for keeping DOMA on the books. It will be a great year if the Respect for Marriage Act and ENDA both get passed.

Bank of Spain employees can enjoy a paid for summer break on the coast

DESPITE Spain's questionable financial situation, Bank of Spain employees can enjoy a paid for summer break on the coast.
Last year the Bank issued a tender inviting travel agents to offer two and three bedroom accommodation across the country to be used for staff summer vacations but this was cancelled due to the pandemic and restriction on travel.
Nothing daunted, a similar tender was issued this year and according to a number of news sources including The Canadian News, four agencies will be sharing almost €1 million as they supply some 100 apartments for use by Bank of Spain staff this summer.
Although cost was one of the main criteria, their employer wanted to ensure that staff would be able to enjoy similar standards to those they enjoy at home, so all properties had to have air conditioning, a swimming pool, decent views and be within 100 metres of a beach.
The Bank of Spain is of course 100 per cent state owned and therefore funded by the Spanish taxpayer, many of whom have been on furlough or out of work for as much as a year.
Indeed, it has recently suggested that the increase in the minimum wage in Spain may have detrimental effects upon employment especially in the case of those aged 45 and over.

Last night, i had the pleasure of finally catching the last episode (chronologically-speaking) of the infamous Star Wars saga, Revenge of the Sith. Being a prequel, i knew what to expect from the story line, but it was still worth the watch, just to see how things end up the way they do. The funny thing was, deep down, i still yearned for a 'happy' ending, where Anakin Skywalker somehow altered his fate to become Lord Vader, by giving two fingers to the 'dark side' – but alas, it was not to be.
I noticed that this episode registered especially high on the morality-meter, and had a lot to say about politics, relationships and life, in general. Although I am not really a Star Wars enthusiast, my efforts to explain some of the more intriguing lessons i weaned from the film has lead to my essay becoming too long to be read in one sitting. So, in typical George Lucas-style, i have split it into three parts, which i will post over the next few days. I am also issuing a spoiler warning, as i talk about various subplots in detail.
Hollywood is famous for its tales of daring romance. The hero always saves the day, and gets the girl. Often, love is portrayed as the only reason to get out of bed in the morning, the very essence of life, and the answer to all problems. However, not so in Episode III. It is the deep love that Jedi Skywalker has for his wife, Padame, that ultimately proves to be his Achilles heel; the catalyst for his conversion to the Dark Side of the Force. Haunted by premonitions of her death, he was tricked into thinking that the Dark Side would give him the power to save her. However, the awful irony was that his 'crossing-over' ended up being the cause of her eventual demise. When Padame confronted Anakin about his murderous adventures, his new found powers cloud his judgement, and in a fit of paranoid rage, he strangled her to the point of unconsciousness, with the same vice-like 'death grip' that would become his signature attack in future episodes.
Anakin's marriage had to be kept secret, as Jedis, in their effort to remain detached from worldly distractions, are not allowed to form such relationships. If he had done the 'right thing' to begin with, by resisting his urges, then perhaps he may have been saved from the path of self-destruction. This all sounds very familiar to anyone of religious persuasion: temptations of the flesh leading to the downfall of the human spirit. However, the answer is not just to deny oneself, and live life as a celibate monk. The problem here was not that Anakin loved Padame, but rather that his intention was incorrect; his love bordered on selfish greed. This was why he could not accept that her fate was to die during childbirth; he didn't want to be alone, and face that pain, even though her death would not have been to her disadvantage, as Jedis also believe in some sort of afterlife (becoming one with the Force, or something). As the saying goes, "If you love someone, let them go".
Love, as with any emotion or action, for the sake of Allāh alone, is the only kind of love that can lead to good; whether it be love for one's wife, love for one's family, or for a stranger. Where it is forbidden, then the intention to please God will ideally keep one safe from entering into a harmful relationship, i.e., zina , or will motivate one to alter the situation so that that love becomes permissible, accepted and nurtured, i.e., a publicised marriage. Unfortunately, Jedis don't seem to believe in God, so some brothers will have to travel across the galaxy to give them dawah.
Another potential lesson is that although romantic love can be beautiful and fulfilling, it can also be all-consuming and deadly. Basically, love isn't all its cracked up to be, so maybe we should take it off the mighty pedestal erected by Hollywood, and be more realistic about its importance in our lives. That is something i need to work on, for sure.
In the next episode of Lessons from Star Wars, i ask, "Is Evil stronger than Good?".
I found Ep.3 pretty depressing (because I love happy endings too, and even though I knew that Anakin HAD to become Darth Vader, I kept hoping he wouldn't…), but it had quite a few important lessons in it too!
Haha… can't wait for the next post!
I saw the first star wars and never got the taste for any of the others despite Harrison Ford being a cutey back then.
Yay a new post. I was missing those sis! I've never watched star wars. But I'm like that, always the last one to watch something after the hype. Like I never watched Lord of the Rings until three years later. LOVED IT! Never watched the matrix until 6 years later after the hype, LOVED IT! See, I like to watch movies because I want to watch them, not because everyone is getting hyped on them- I don't like to follow the crowd- hehe.
So someone told me I was mad for not watching star wars. I don't know why I always get the image of STAR TREK when someone says star wars?! Anyway maybe in a few years when I have time on my hands I'll watch it.
I agree with your sentiments dear sister, but where you propose taking love off the mighty pedestal, I suggest maybe that we leave it there but redefine it. Love is a powerful and beautiful when it's selfless, insha'Allah. Unfortunately, Hollywood promotes a selfish kind of love..in abundance.
Mouse: I'm glad to see you are pleased! I thought i may be a little 'sad' to post on such a topic; so nice to have your support!
Lucy: So, you're not a fan of science fiction?
U.M.: Star Trek & Star Wars are very different, even though they are both about adventures in Space! I like both of them, though not the Star Trek films… they aren't as good as Star Wars.
Farzeen: Romantic love is, er, lovely! But sometimes we quest after it at the expense of all other things, especially in marriage. Many couples divorce when they are no longer "in love", like they used to be. In the case of arranged/assisted marriages, such intense love may not blossom immediately, even if both partners are respectful of one another, causing one or both partners to be disappointed, weakening their relationship.
I think many of us have been groomed by Hollywood into thinking it is something that we are owed, rather than a gift. So when we don't feel it, we think everything is wrong. I suspect that is how i am, and i don't think that it is correct.

Note: Harrah's Casino Online is still not available in the state of Pennsylvania. This review will cover what is expected to happen once Harrah's comes online.
Harrah's Casino is among those operators that are scheduled to open and provide online gaming opportunities to the residents of Pennsylvania. They have applied for a license for offering online gambling and sports betting, and have since been approved. All it takes now is to wait for the official launch and to see what we will be able to get with the Harrah's Casino bonus code 2019. Our finest guess is that it will be in the form of either some free spins, or a deposit match bonus. Or maybe both. We will just have to wait and see. Of course, as soon as the information is available, we will update this review, so keep on coming back for new information.
Game types 3 and 5 reel Slots, progressive Jackpots , Poker etc.
Getting started at Harrah's will be, presumably, pretty simple and with a reliable registration process, you will be playing real money games in no time. It all starts by clicking on Open Account, located, usually, at the top right of the screen. You will then be taken to the first page of the sign up process, where you will enter personal information and contact information. This will include a full name, date of birth, phone number, password, username and an email.
As soon as all information is entered, you will be required to agree to the Terms of Service. Once you do this, you will be able to login to the new account and this will take you to the casino lobby, where you can access games to play in a free mode. If you are ready to start gambling for real money and wish to take advantage of the Harrah's Casino bonus code 2019, you will have to wait a little.
While Harrah's online casino is not yet available in Pennsylvania, once it is, you will have to reside or be physically located within the state to play real money games. If you are in New Jersey, Pennsylvanian real money games will not be accessible, but you will still be able to play at Harrah's Casino NJ.
After you have claimed the Harrah's Casino bonus code 2019, you can go on to benefit from a number of great offers that will be presented. The casino will update the Promotions page on a regular basis and here, you will find ways to earn free cash, double comp points and much more. Seeing as this online casino is not yet live, we can only provide you with information regarding bonuses that are being offered at other Harrah's online sites.
Harrah's is known to present you with amazing ways to receive free money and to keep you as a loyal player. There are bound to be bonus offers throughout the week that will provide beneficial and these can all be redeemed if you have a real money account. Check out some of the offers that will probably be available at Harrah's Online Casino Pennsylvania when the site goes live.
Most of these promotions are time-limited, therefore the best advice would be to visit the operator's website once it goes live to get up to date with the latest offers.
The software that is used by Harrah's online is from Dragonfish and 888 Holdings. There are also slot games that are provided by Williams Interactive. With these providers, Harrah's is able to offer a wide array of game titles, though the selection is far from what you would experience at other online casinos. Overall, the online casino presents a small number of games, but they are of the highest quality. Based on what is currently offered at Harrah's New Jersey, you can expect the same offerings when the Pennsylvania site goes live.
The great thing about the casino games that will be featured is that they can all be accessed through the web browser. There will be no required download to access any titles. This means you can easily play games on a PC or a Mac, and as explained later in the review, you will also be able to play on mobile devices.
If you are a fan of slot games, you will find some nice options at the casino site. Here, you will be able to play a variety of three and five reel games as well as those that are linked to progressive jackpots. Some of the top games are from Williams Interactive, including Kiss, Raging Rhino, Super Jackpot Party and Zeus III. As for progressive slots, you can spin to win on Ultimate Universe, Casino Reels, Dino Jackpot Stampede, Ultimate Genie and The Royals Go Camping, all games from 888.
Unfortunately, the offering of table and card games will be disappointing. Harrah's is known to offer just a few of the basic games, like blackjack and roulette. There are four different versions of roulette, so there are game options, but in regards to blackjack, you will only find the Classic version of the game being offered. The roulette versions include Roulette, American Roulette, French Roulette and European Roulette. There are also no live dealer games that are presented at Harrah's.
There is a single video poker game called Jacks or Higher. At first glance, this video poker game seems to be a full pay game, offering a 9 coin payout for a Full House and a 6 coin payout for a Flush. However, Straight flush hands and four or a kind hands have lower payouts than a standard full pay game.
If you are a fan of slot games, Harrah's can deliver a great experience, but if you are seeking other casino games, you may be let down by the supported portfolio. All games that are offered can be played for free now or for real money later (once the online gambling platform is up and running) and, hopefully, you will also be able to use the bonus cash from the Harrah's Casino bonus code 2019.
To make sure you have safe and secure ways to manage an account, Harrah's will be offering trusted banking options. As soon as you register an account, you will be able to visit the cashier, where you can choose an option and make an instant deposit. This will make you eligible for the Harrah's Casino bonus code 2019 Pennsylvania, offering free casino cash on the first deposit completed.
There are many ways in which you can choose to manage your account. While Harrah's does not offer the extensive list of methods that you may find at other operating sites, you will have decent options and will always be able to make easy and fast deposits and withdrawals.
When it comes to the lowest and highest deposits possible, we will have to wait and see what the rules will be.
Once you have deposited, claimed the Harrah's Casino bonus code 2019 and have generated winnings, you will be able to easily withdraw funds from the account. In order to claim winnings from bonus offers, the wagering requirements will probably have to be completed. You will then visit the casino cashier and select Withdraw. Now, you will enter the amount you wish to remove from the account and will choose a method from the menu. The withdrawal options include Bank Wire, Check, PayPal, Neteller or Cash via the Cage.
The time it takes to complete a withdrawal will vary per method. Bank transfers can take 5 days to be completed while Neteller and PayPal can offer completed transactions in 3-4 business days. If you are requesting a check, you will have to wait anywhere from 5-8 days to receive that in the mail.
Harrah's understands that you may not always be at home when you wish to play, which is why they should develop an app for mobile play. The mobile app will hopefully provide you with some of the most popular games from the main site and you can enjoy all game features and the same payout rates.
At this time, the mobile app is unavailable (of course), but we expect it to be available both on iOS and Android. You will download the app and then be able to sign in with your casino account information. The mobile casino offers all the excitement of some of the best games online and with this, you will never miss out on any gambling action.
This great app offers secure connections, complete banking options, access to customer support and the ability to play great games like slots, roulette, video poker and blackjack. If you do not already have a Harrah's account, you can register through the mobile app and take advantage of the Harrah's Casino bonus code 2019. This discount code will provide you with the same offer as the main online casino, presenting a 100% match on the first deposit.
The only restriction that the mobile app will most certainly have is that the players have to be located within the boundaries of the state of Pennsylvania, and they will request to use your phone's GPS location to track down your position. It will not be possible to play without this, or if you are outside Pennsylvania's borders.
At Harrah's, you will always have access to a highly trained group of support professionals. The customer support team will offer assistance in all regards and can help you get started, claim the Harrah's Casino bonus code 2019 Pennsylvania, assist with deposits and withdrawals and anything else you may need.
There are different ways in which you can contact the support team. You will have a phone number as well as an email address and there is also a great FAQ section provided at the site. Here, many of the common questions will be answered, so it is a great starting point if you are a new player.
