Super Smash Bros. is a series of crossover fighting video games published by Nintendo. It primarily features characters from their own franchises. All five games have been directed by Masahiro Sakurai.
The gameplay objective differs from that of traditional fighters by aiming to knock opponents off the stage instead of depleting life bars. The original Super Smash Bros., released in 1999 for the Nintendo 64, had a small budget and was originally a Japan-only release, but its domestic success led to a worldwide release. The series achieved even greater success with the release of Super Smash Bros. Melee, which was released in 2001 for the GameCube and became the bestselling game on that system. A third installment, Super Smash Bros. Brawl, was released in 2008 for the Wii. Although HAL Laboratory has been the developer of the first two titles, the third game was developed through the collaboration of several companies. The fourth installment,[1]Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS and Wii U, were released in 2014 for the Nintendo 3DS and Wii U, respectively. The 3DS installment was the first series title to be released on a handheld platform. A fifth installment, Super Smash Bros. Ultimate, is currently in development for the Nintendo Switch and is scheduled to be released on December 7, 2018.[2][3][4]
The series features many characters from Nintendo's most popular franchises, including Mario, Donkey Kong, Link, Samus Aran, Fox McCloud, Kirby, and Pikachu. The original Super Smash Bros. had 12 playable characters, and the roster count has risen to 26 characters in Melee, 39 in Brawl, 58 in 3DS/Wii U (seven of which are downloadable), and 68 in Ultimate. Some characters are able to transform into different forms that have different styles of play and sets of moves. The games also feature many non-playable Nintendo characters, such as Petey Piranha from the Mario franchise. In Brawl, two third-party characters were added: Solid Snake and Sonic the Hedgehog. Additional third-party characters Mega Man, Pac-Man, Ryu, Cloud Strife, and Bayonetta appeared in Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS and Wii U, while Solid Snake was not included.
Every title in the series has been well received by critics, with much praise given to the multiplayer mode experience. The Super Smash Bros. games have spawned a large competitive community and have been featured in several high-profile gaming tournaments.

What's Covered
Your Cover

Asset Protect
Community Football
AFL Womens
Representative Teams
Club Risk Standards
Certificate of Currency
Club Liability
Forms & Factsheets
A set list of Standards is divided into three categories:
Footy Risks: These are risks that clubs face directly relating to playing and training
Club Risks: These are general risks that clubs face in running the club
Committee Risks: These risks are faced by club committees
The Club Risk Standards works on a self-assessment basis. The club ticks off a Standard when the committee is confident the requirements have been achieved. A number of the Standards will be subjective and it will be at the discretion of the club to use your best judgement. For example, an appropriately stocked first aid kit will depend on the number of teams and the number of grounds in use and this will vary from club to club.
Each of the Standards asks the club to reach a certain requirement, for example, the club must use and continue to use the Marsh AFL Match Day Checklist. If the club believes they are doing this then you can tick this box indicating that your club achieves this Standard.
Each Standard has a Description option to better describe the risk faced by the club. A Support option is also provided that allows clubs to directly link to resources that will help them achieve the Standard.
You need to register your club when you first start simply by completing the registration process. You can then view the Standards the club needs to address.
Your club can work through the Standards, ticking off each one as your club achieves the set criteria. The website will save your progress each time.
AFL Quality Club Program
The club may have already achieved some Standards through the completion of other programs such as the AFL Quality Club Program. For example, the Standard of coach accreditation is very relevant in reducing risks, so it is part of the Club Risk Standards. Your club may have already satisfied this Standard by completing the Quality Club Program. If this is the case, then it is a simple matter of ticking the box, declaring that the club has satisfied this Standard.
Annual Audit
The Standard's that your club has satisfied and ticked are automatically un-ticked on November 1 each year. This is because each football season brings new risks. There is no point complying with Working with Children legislation for a single year and then not re-checking when new coaches and new team managers arrive at the club for the following season. For this reason, each Standard needs to be addressed each year.

It is not often that I have the opportunity to write about something positive. On March 4th, however, my brother U.S. Army Major Trent Colestock was honored on the floor of the U.S. Congress by Florida Representative Ileana Ros-Lehtinen (R-District 27). Click here to read the Congressional Record of the Honoring of Major Trent Colestock U.S. Army.
Trent Colestock's '04 sense of duty seems to come naturally. He has been serving his country since before, during and after his years at TCU.
Most recently, Army Cpt. [now Major] Colestock, shown below at the State of the Union Address, has been learning the ins and outs of congress as a military defense liaison for Rep. Mike Conaway, R-Texas, while rounding out his master's degree in legislative affairs from George Washington University.
Colestock, 34, enlisted in 1997, starting him on the path to civil service. After being stationed in Fort Drum, N.Y., for four years, the Mineral Wells native took his military career to Fort Worth as part of the Horned Frog Battalion.
Service continued, and an Iraq deployment and Bronze Star later, he is now working as a voice for his fellow soldiers on Capitol Hill.
The nation is in good hands with men like my brother Trent.

Extremists from both ends of the political spectrum, tend to look alike.
On another forum, a person was railing against Islam with all the typical bigoted remarks, things like they are all terrorists, they all repress women and women's rights, they are all killers. Then in a later thread he argued that bombing abortion clinics was alright because they were killers and it was preventing murder. I asked him what the difference was between his views and extremist Muslims. He never responded.

There no distinction between extremist, but I believe a radical Islamist kills for a different reason, which is to create terror. While Jihad is a war against unbelievers, a radical Christian usually doesn't kill others just because they don't share the same belief. Both are crazy, but at least the abortion clinic bomber has a reason, which is defending the lives of the unborn. Muhammad asks believers to kill in the name of Allah, while Christ taught that vengeance belongs to God.. So while there's a difference in the faiths, crazy is still crazy, no matter what religion is attached to it.. jmo

The Nazi Storm Troopers all had belt buckles that said -- "God is with us.".
We all know how that works. "One nation, under god." Or "In God we trust."
So intoxicating. So self righteous. Some things don't change.

Ah, but collateral damage is the same for both and accepted, as well, to fulfill their agenda. Meaning, they either don't care or allow innocents to be harmed and/or killed by their act, as long as they eliminate their target. (Even if they don't achieve their goal, the method is accepted.)
I tend to think those who identify as Christians should follow the example of Christ. He could have hid before the Romans came. He could have escaped at any point. He could have wiped out all those who persecuted him, at least according to the mythology. Yet he didn't strike back with violence. I think that pretty well sums up the Christian argument about self defense as well.

That is a good comparison!
There are others:
If religion is music, then Atheism is silence.
If religion is hair color, then Atheism is bald.
Except that Christ came for a specific purpose, and when the time arrived, self-defense wasn't an option. Prior to that ultimate sacrifice, Jesus did evade persecution; "Then took they up stones to cast at him: but Jesus hid himself, and went out of the temple" (John 8:59). So prior to fulfilling prophecy, he didn't willingly let others interfere with his mission; "Then they sought to take him: but no man laid hands on him, because his hour was not yet come" (John 7:30). Yes, Jesus could have wiped them out, but that would have defeated his purpose (salvation). The 'wiping out' comes at his second appearance. Jesus also had his disciples carry a couple swords (Luke 22:38), so he obviously didn't oppose self-defense.

When this was said -- as an accusation -- to Bill Maher -- he replied that Atheism is religion the way that abstinence is a sex position.
Atheism in itself may not be a religion, but there are atheist religions, and religious people can be atheist.

Which Atheist religions did you have in mind?

Atheistic Satanism, certain types of Buddhism, certain types of animistic religions which don't involve deities, and a handful of modern pagan religions which don't involve deities.
Atheism really only refers to a lack of belief in deities. One can have a religion complete with ritual practice, discipline, and organization without deities.

On the other hand, we know there are people who think that atheists "believe in nothing," cannot be spiritual people, and are all strict materialists. Taking the time to hammer out the details can help prevent that sort of confusion and the prejudicial treatment it spawns.

maybe.of the philosophies/religions you listed,buddhism is the only one that does not teach a deity.and if i understand correctly,the norse and greek gods weren't worshiped as they were meant to be emulated.but i could be wrong.as far as wicca,i'm not 100%sure,but you can be wiccan and not worship the goddess/god.
In the case for Traditional Wicca, you are correct. There are some eclectics that claim Wicca who might not. But they would be more eclectic pagan than Wiccan specifically.
i guess if one finds something that is true to them,then it really doesn't matter what others think.but if they find something else that changes what they think,then so be it.
I have an authentic Tibetan Buddhist initiation to Medicine Buddha. It's one of the advantages to life in New York City. There are opportunities here, not found elsewhere.
To my understanding, Medicine Buddha is a personification of healing. I was given a mantra and a ceremony so that I might self identify with Medicine Buddha. In this way, becoming a focal point for healing.
Part of my instruction was that physical healing is low level. To truly reduce the amount of suffering in the world, I was to spread Dharma.

To me, religion has connotations of deity. Philosophy is an idealogical practice, and does not necessitate deity, although it does not exclude the possibility either. A church is a little more complex, I suppose. It could reference the building itself, or perhaps the congregation. Or it could reference the governance behind the church, the people in power of that particular church. Practice is something I hear referenced to Christians who don't. I suppose it should be related to all philosophies and religions. A person can have a good idea of what they think they should be doing, and then not do it anyway. I could claim the title of stoic, and then focus on material possessions if I desired to. On the same note, someone could say they are Christian. Perhaps even in THEIR idea of what constitutes Christian they are. But someone else might say they aren't practicing Christians because they don't follow such and such or so and so philosophy, which is CLEARLY outlined in the bible...isn't it funny how many can say that, but can't see anyone else's interpretation as being possible?
Many religions like to emphasize charitable works, but the practitioners rarely actually practice charity, outside of the precincts of their church that is. In philosophical terms, there are those who claim perhaps to be pacifists. Maybe they've never been up against it, where they absolutely had to choose whether or not to stick to their guns.
A lot of this relies upon judgment of course. Something a lot of religion claims to be against. How does a Christian reference what a REAL Christian is, without judging what a real Christian isn't? How does someone determine whether they are really practicing or not? Does the church determine what is and is not Evangelical Protestant? Or is it a personal interpretation of the scripture that matches that description?

The Christian Science Publishing Society was established in 1898 by Mary Baker Eddy and is the publishing arm of The First Church of Christ, Scientist in Boston, Massachusetts.
The Christian Science Publishing Society and the Board of Trustees that manage it were established by Mary Baker Eddy in a deed of trust on January 25, 1898. Although she had not wanted to create a separate trust to handle the church's publications, legal considerations made it necessary. Written in the deed is Eddy's express intent for the Publishing Society, that it is "for the purpose of more effectually promoting and extending the religion of Christian Science as taught by me." Always concerned about the purity of the teaching, she was reported by her student Septimus J. Hanna to have said just days before signing the deed, that she wanted "to protect and preserve the literature of [Christian Science] in its purity". She wanted to protect her teachings from "aggressive attempts" to adulterate them, which she felt would wreak havoc within the church and would cause misrepresentations of her teachings, both within and outside the church.
In addition to Mary Baker Eddy's works, they publish a number of periodicals, including the monthly The Christian Science Journal, the weekly Christian Science Sentinel, The Herald of Christian Science published in a number of languages; and the Christian Science Quarterly, also published in a number of languages. The Quarterly contains the Bible lessons used as sermons in Sunday services in all Christian Science churches around the world. They also publish biographies of Eddy and other books and study materials on Christian Science.
There is also an international weekly newspaper, The Christian Science Monitor, which has won several Pulitzer Prizes. The Monitor is a secular newspaper; however, there is one religious article in each issue.
The Publishing Society is managed by a three-person Board of Trustees under the authority of the Christian Science Board of Directors. It is located, along with the Mary Baker Eddy Library, in the Publishing Society building at the Christian Science Center in Boston's Back Bay. It is the primary publisher of the writings of Mary Baker Eddy and other Christian Science literature.

Kaiser! The greatest footballer never to play football
by Rob Smyth
Yellow Jersey Press, £9.99
Reviewed by Paul Rees
From WSC 379, September 2018
On several occasions in this racy book, Guardian writer Rob Smyth references Catch Me If You Can, Steven Spielberg's 2002 biopic of an engaging conman. Spielberg's slick movie is a favourite of Smyth's central character, Carlos Henrique Raposo. Fittingly, since the so-called Kaiser also has a questionable moral compass and distant relationship with the truth.
On the surface, Raposo's extraordinary story is likewise one of dash and daring. Born in Porto Alegre in southern Brazil in 1963, by Raposo's own account he was abandoned by his single mother and raised in poverty by adoptive parents in Rio de Janeiro. Like generations of Rio street kids, Raposo grew up playing football barefoot on the local dirt-tracks and as a youth was picked up by scouts from Botafogo, one of the city's four top-flight teams. At Botafogo, Raposo claims his imperiousness on the pitch reminded his fellow hopefuls of the legendary German captain Franz Beckenbauer and that this earned him his nickname.
At all events, this positive impression of Raposo's footballing gifts was fleeting. One contemporary records how Raposo could barely control a ball and he was soon let go by Botafogo, although not so that this deterred him. In Smyth's breathless telling, Raposo nevertheless managed to spend the next 26 years thriving as a professional footballer, flitting from one club to another in Brazil and as well in the leagues of Argentina, North America and France, but without ever once playing in an actual first-class game.
Smyth attempts to portray Raposo as a shameless, though endearing, schmoozer, able to talk his way into securing multiple contracts and then through the simple means of feigning injury in training, avoid being found out as a charlatan. He is seen to have passed through the ranks of each of Rio's major sides and that of the then-World Club champions Independiente of Argentina, rubbing shoulders with such greats as Bebeto, Romário and Zico. Smyth does a solid job of showing how Raposo's unlikely path might have been smoothed by the chaotic nature of Brazilian football at the time, with the clubs habitually run by Mafioso-style bosses and riven with corruption, a more widespread lack of medical expertise in the game, and the vagaries of the pre-social media world.
However, the book stumbles on two significant obstacles. Despite Smyth's best efforts at burnishing, the grubbier aspects of Raposo's character make him tough to like, much less admire. He is shown to be a freeloader, blackmailer, glorified pimp and as being unreliable. Inevitably, this last trait makes his more outlandish assertions suspect at best, and so that the reader is left with nothing of substance to hold onto and the sense of being taken for a ride. In the end, even Smyth admits to having his doubts, though perhaps the defining view on Raposo is attributed to Zico. "He's an affront to professional football," Smyth quotes the former Brazilian striker, "and a complete liar."

After treating ourselves to a fun day painting the living room yesterday, we decided we were due a spell of relaxation and, as today looked as if it might be halfway decent, we took ourselves over to Wythop for a leisurely stroll on Sale Fell. This fell isn't one of Lakeland's giants by any means, it stands at only 1177′ above sea level, but it offers a variety of routes over and around its modest slopes all of which will provide a grand little walk through some very pretty countryside, especially on a sunny day.
We parked on the narrow lane which runs between the Pheasant Inn and Wythop Mill and made our way along to this gate which marks the start of one of the paths up Sale Fell.
The narrow lane is in those trees just below the gorse and having gone through the gate we have a short climb through the flowering gorse to the top of the rise, behind us is this view of Binsey across Bass Lake.
Tucked into the trees is St Margaret's Church, consecrated in 1866, which replaced the previous old chapel which we will be passing a little later on in our walk. A memorial bench has been sited on the flattish area at the top of the rise and the previous photo shows the view from it.
From the bench area we take a sharp left and begin the climb up the wide grassy path en route for Lothwaite. A couple of walkers up ahead of us are already well on their way, but we were to come across them later on in our walk.
More of Bass Lake appears as we gain height.
A look back across Embleton vale as the path crosses through the collapsed wall.
A little further on and we have crossed a small beck and carried straight on instead of turning up Sale Fell, that's it behind us with its summit in the cloud shadow.
Ahead of us we still have the wide grassy path leading us on to Lothwaite. To the left of the shot is an area of scrubland which was covered with pine trees until they were felled in 2014.
Barf and Lord's Seat on the centre skyline, with just a hint of Grisedale Pike appearing behind on the right as we reach Lothwaite.
A closer look at the Dodds and the Helvellyn range on the skyline from Lothwaite.
The abundance of clouds was playing havoc with the lighting today and strong shadows were hard to avoid, but the view across Bass Lake was still fantastic.
The Lord's Seat fells again as we continue over Lothwaite ….
….. and a view of Sale Fell as we walk across a very windy Lothwaite.
As we look to our left we see Broom Fell on the centre skyline with Greystones to its right. Another nicely sited bench with a view below us where we decided to put the jumpers back on again. It might look warm and sunny but the chilly wind was coming straight at us and our short sleeved t-shirts just weren't cutting it.
From Lothwaite we had a comprehensive view of the deforested area just across from us. It didn't look as though new trees had been planted so perhaps its being left to revert to a natural state.
Looking across the Wythop valley with Broom Fell on the left and Greystones on the right.
Today's cute lamb and Mum keeping a very close watch on me.
Barf, Lord's Seat and Broom Fell standing guard above the lovely Wythop valley.
Another area of deforestation across the valley with Ling Fell to the right of it.
Looking towards Binsey from the large cairn on Rivings.
From Rivings we make our way over to Sale Fell. We're in deep shade and a very chilly wind as we cross over to Sale Fell and we both started to feel quite cold, my fingers were beginning to go numb and I hadn't packed my gloves. I didn't think I would be needing them today!
Another look across the valley at the Lord's Seat fells as we reach the top of Sale Fell.
From Sale Fell we can look at quite a lot of the route we have been taking, the deforested area to the left, the grassy area of Lothwaite to the right of it and then, where the paths are criss-crossing is Rivings.
A closer look at the Skiddaw group, Skiddaw being the highest one on the skyline, below it is the Ullock Pike to Carl Side ridge, and then comes the little rounded hump of Dodd.
Binsey viewed in close up from Sale Fell top.
Time to get a move on because its too chilly and windy to stand around any longer. The gloves are out and shortly after this shot we put our jackets back on.
We're now walking down directly into the wind, and we also have a large cloud overhead, so everything feels even chillier and I'm glad we didn't opt for any of the higher fells today. The higher you go the colder it gets and its parky enough down at this modest height, is it ever going to warm up?
A look back at the descent route off Sale Fell.
We'd almost reached the wall when we spotted a little hollow which looked like it might offer a bit of respite, which it did, so we dropped into it and got out the coffee. We were both very cold by the time we reached here so we were looking forward to a hot drink and hoping for a spell of warm sunshine. The big cloud finally moved away from us and we had a sunny ten minute break, while our chilled bodies began to get some warmth back into them. This is the view we had of Ling Fell across the valley while we had our coffee break. We thought about continuing the walk by going over to the top of it but decided instead to swing left on the path at the lower left of the shot and return back along the Wythop valley.
So here we are, making our way along the valley back towards Kelswick Farm.
A look back at Ling Fell as we make our way along the valley. There is another path below us alongside the beck, which you may be able to pick out, and the one we are on merges with it a little further along. Whichever one is chosen the walk through the valley is a lovely one, especially on a sunny spring day like today. We now have the wind behind us and its much warmer down here in the valley so the walk along here was very pleasant.
Looking ahead at the gentle countryside along the Wythop valley.
This is Kelswick Farm where the two paths merge and we continue on along the tarmac lane to the point where the lane begins to curve around behind the trees. You can just make out a signpost at that bend and there we leave the lane and continue on a track across the field.
The track passes alongside the ruins of the old chapel at Wythop which I mentioned at the beginning of the walk and which was erected in 1673. On one of the remaining walls there is a photo of how it once looked but it is now so faded that you can hardly see any detail on it so I didn't think it was worth taking a shot of it.
This is a lovely section of the walk through Chapel Wood particularly as the trees are not yet in full leaf so you are walking in dappled shade with frequent glimpses of the valley to the right below.
One such glimpse between the trees in Chapel Wood was of Lord's Seat on the other side of the valley.
A longer view across the valley with Barf, Lord's Seat and Broom Fell on the skyline. As we walked along here we came across the two walkers who we had seen ahead of us in the fourth picture of this walk. They were stretched out on the grass beside the path, both of them fast asleep so we tip-toed past and tried not to disturb them. Its not a bad place for a snooze in the sun, is it?
The Skiddaw fells come back into view as we continue along the path.
A spell of sunshine brought out the detail which I thought merited a closer look at them, meanwhile the ewe across the field there is taking a closer look at us.
The path we followed eventually brought us out on this old forest road and we took the upper section to return to the car and have a closer look at the deforested area.
From the highest point on the forest road there is now a clear view towards the foot of Bass Lake. The situation on the ground looks very messy at present but nature will eventually put things back in order again.
The tree felling was extensive so mother nature has quite a bit of restoration work on her hands up here.
At this point we leave the forest road and follow the rough track between the brash and the trees …..
….. which after only a very short distance brings us to this stile and the path beyond …..
….. which then joins up with the path we walked along as we made our way over to Lothwaite. The recuperating foot was having trouble dealing with the angle of the slope since the injured ankle isn't back to full flexibility just yet.

Looks like a few more folk have also decided that a walk up Sale Fell would be a nice choice for a walk on a sunny afternoon, although, apart from the two sleeping walkers I mentioned earlier, we haven't seen anyone at all. All in all a grand little jaunt but we could have done without the chilly wind for the first half of it.

Couldn't imagine it for one minute Linda. There would be an uproar. The pupils here have to bend the rules even now. Hair , skirts and shoes etc and extreme lack of discipline.
Impossible, there would be a riot !

This Messy Magnificent Life
A Field Guide
From the beginning, Geneen Roth was told she was too sensitive, too emotional, too curious, too demanding, too intense, and too big. Yet gaining and losing weight for decades did not improve her self-worth or reduce other people's criticisms. Like most women who struggle with their weight, she believed that if she could resolve what seemed to be the source of her self-hatred - how and what she ate - she would be thin, happy, and free. That belief, she discovered, was false.

What listeners say about Break Free from Emotional Eating
Kate+Mitchell Powell
This is a good intro but . . .
I think that the longer versions are better if you are serious about any of the eating issues. I didn't waste a credit but bought it -- and so it is fine.
I have to say that those who wrote about her voice? WHAAAAA? I expected some crazy voice. She is well-modulated and just fine. Inducts a bit of a meditative atmosphere.
Also, this is not about any one kind of eating issue, despite what some have said. It works just as well for the yoyo-dieter as it does for the anorexic. I have done the program for years and it is amazing.
Great Introduction to Bite by Bite
If you could sum up Break Free from Emotional Eating in three words, what would they be?
This is a great Introduction to her book Bite by Bite but I think its okay to skip over this and straight to that book. Its not that much longer to listen to and it gives you more.
Lisa K. Collins
Hit the nail on the head.
Love it give me more. This was exactly what I need at this time in my life.
Not Whole book
I cannot review the book, since this version has only Chapter 1. Save your money. This is some sort of rip off.
dbeyr
Too short!! Not enough information
I really like the topic of this book and the authors take on healthy eating. Just wish she would go a little more in depth.
Should have read the reviews
I got this for like 2$ but I should have looked at how long it was and read the reviews saying it was short. It's a great introduction into eating issues, but was not exactly what I was hoping for.
Linda Jo Martin
Diet inspiration
This is a brief introduction to Geneen's work helping people overcome emotional eating. It is easy listening and I liked her voice. You get to know about her life and her relationship with food. You might end up feeling like the lucky one. The 50 minute recording makes me want to listen to her other books so I can try to figure out what my own emotional eating stems from.
LANETA ROTH
Did not follow the actual book
I have the book and started to read it. Unfortunately I do not have a ton of time so I got the audio version. The book does not match the audio and the audio was extremely short compared to the book. I am not sure I got the entire audio version or is this normal with actually easing and then listening to the audio?
great overview
I was hoping for a more in depth narrative, but fire the price it was well worth the read.
This is not the book, it is just a summary
Loved the content but was very short and superficial and ended abruptly. Just buy the real book.

A Nightmare of Work and Care
By Lynn Lu
Lynn Lu is Associate Professor of Law and Co-Director of the Economic Justice Project at CUNY School of Law.
As public schools around the country struggle to reopen safely during the COVID-19 crisis, and with Congressional pandemic relief stalled, working parents—indeed, all folks struggling to make ends meet while providing care for others—are experiencing unprecedented panic and uncertainty about their ability to keep things going. The "Real Life Horror Stories From the World of Pandemic Motherhood" reported by Law Professor Joan C. Williams and others are filled with frightful details about parents facing repercussions at work because they are also needed at home. Earlier this summer, Florida State University freaked out many of its workers by declaring that FSU would "no longer allow employees to care for children while working remotely" before backtracking to "be clear" its "policy does allow employees to work from home while caring for children" (without stating exactly how both tasks could be done simultaneously). One California mother filed an employment discrimination lawsuit alleging that when she could not guarantee her young children would be silent on remote meeting calls "100 percent of the time," she was ordered "to take care of your kid situation" and then terminated. Williams describes the predicament of a single mother "whose daughter has a disability that makes her especially vulnerable to Covid . . . [who] was fired because her employer insisted she return to the office, which she couldn't do without putting her daughter at risk."
Williams, who directs the Center for WorkLife Law, warns that American households need a replacement for "the patched-together Rube Goldberg machine that just broke" (internal hyperlink omitted). In fact, many families have never had a fully functional work-life system, but instead have grappled with a Frankenstein's monster of conflicting and disjointed partial solutions for meeting work, family, and personal needs.
Even before the pandemic, many workers were precariously balancing long and unpredictable hours, stagnant wages, and unaffordable substitute care for children and elders, alongside the high costs of housing, transportation, and utilities.
Those not legally authorized to work or otherwise disconnected from the labor market fare even worse and are left to fall through large holes in a social safety net that deems anyone unwilling or unable to work as undeserving of basic subsistence-level support. Such a system deprives the non-working poor of human dignity while ensuring that the working poor must accept the worst conditions and lowest wages, even as they raise the next generation of "essential" workers.
The harshest effects of the work-care crisis, as with the burdens of healthcare inequity and targeted policing, are visited on households headed by unmarried Black women and women of color—precisely the populations that have historically been forced to juggle paid work and family care with little or no social support. Single Black mothers have been harshly scapegoated, denigrated, and criminalized as neglectful, lazy, or selfish whether they ultimately choose to work outside the home without socially acceptable forms of childcare or forego paid work to care for their own children in their own homes. With both their labor and care undervalued, Black women and other women of color risk their own economic security as well as that of their children no matter what they do.
It's been almost 25 years since the Clinton administration, fueled by racialized, gendered stereotypes of single mothers draining the public coffers, "end[ed] welfare as we know it," conditioning receipt of time-limited cash assistance upon compliance with strict work requirements. Explicitly intended to "end the dependence of needy parents on government benefits by promoting job preparation, work, and marriage," "Work First" ideology punishes rather than furthers parents' aspirations (most notably, the choice to invest in their own higher education) for better future outcomes for themselves and their children, leaving those without a working spouse to bare survival in the first available low-wage, dead-end job. Still, for all its punitive features, even mandatory workfare features public funding for childcare and spares single-parent households from lost benefits so long as they can show they lack adequate care for children too young to attend public school. As more and more working parents are realizing during the pandemic, it is one thing to be "permitted" to care for one's own children at home and another to make progress towards a more secure economic future at the same time.
At least since welfare reform, then, we have coexisted with a particularly monstrous work-life imbalance for low-income parents in which economic security, much less economic mobility for their children, remains forever out of reach. Americans have learned to live with punitive workfare as their only form of safety net assistance (or without it, as is the case for too many poor people ineligible even for subsistence benefits). Far from removing the crisis in care and work from polarized public debate, however, the pandemic has shown all too clearly that workfare ideology will not remain confined to the ever-shrinking welfare context, but has a life of its own. As the Trump administration has moved aggressively to expand work requirements to all forms of publicly funded assistance, many more low-income people are at risk of losing crucial social—life—supports, including health care. At the same time, the Trump administration's Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (TCJA) surpasses even welfare reform in elevating married, high-income, disproportionately white parents over single parents of color by channeling the most generous tax expenditures to reward households with one (male) breadwinner of superior wage-earning potential and one caregiver in the home full-time. Far from restoring balance to all parents to choose how and when to combine care work at home with wage work in the labor market, the TCJA further accelerates the concentration of wealth in the most traditionally patriarchal, high-income households.
Against this lopsided backdrop, at a minimum, Williams urges the next session of Congress to protect workers from adverse employment action based on family care obligations and, further, to provide affirmative support for families in the form of paid family leave "and what many other advanced industrial countries also have: neighborhood-based, nationally financed child care." Recent presidential candidate and Senator Elizabeth Warren's "universal child care and early learning program," embraced by the Democratic National Convention's platform, promises broad coverage and purports to kill three birds with one stone: "Parents get the . . . freedom to choose the best work and child care situation for themselves. Kids get the high-quality early learning opportunities that put them on track to fulfill their potential. . . . And the economy gets a huge boost." It's a beautiful vision, but difficult to achieve when the poorest families cannot truly afford the same freedom or the same choices of how best to balance their needs for both care and income. A "universal" childcare solution for those who choose to work, while doing much to mend the tears in the safety net for working families, also requires a solution for those who choose care—without stigma or shame.
We should not underestimate the enduring power of workfare ideology to divide us against each other in fighting over scraps. For childless adults, the costs of supporting public childcare and school may feel excessive so long as childbearing is cast as an individual choice rather than an investment in society. Even among working parents, those earning above-median incomes lament the difficulty of staying afloat with ever higher expenses and debt. In the years after welfare reform, I encountered resistance from working mothers who resented targeting assistance to the poor when they had done everything right yet felt unrewarded for their own superhuman efforts. I once met with a New York State political lobbyist ostensibly interested in advocating for working families. When I raised the issue of supporting increased childcare subsidies for low- and no-income parents unable to work full-time while attending college, the lobbyist responded, "I'm a professional working mom, and I can barely afford childcare. Why should I subsidize care for someone who isn't even working a full 40-hour week?" Her personal expression of entitlement anticipated decades of public resistance to sharing pieces of the tiny pie that is our social safety net.
What we need, in addition to the urgent interventions of universal child care or expanded unemployment insurance benefits, is a social safety net free from punitive work requirements that reserve support only for the deserving poor—one that guarantees the economic security for all to put their lives before work.
Proposals for universal basic income, for example, which could be payable to all regardless of family composition or labor market participation, treat every human as deserving of social support so they have real choices. Even smaller-scale proposals targeting families or children, so long as they guarantee support for all without additional conditions, may empower more people rather than stigmatizing those that fail to measure up and treating them as less than human.
Among the thankless tasks we all have in the pandemic are cleaning up the political messes of the past, which have resulted in the untenable crisis facing parents nationwide who care about their own families' futures and those of their neighbors. We are responsible for the workfare monster we have created, and we must not let it destroy what human compassion and creativity might once again create—a strong safety net deserved by all, regardless of work, and regardless of family status. Such a vision of the future will require more than just cosmetic surgery; it will require courage and a strong stomach in this polarized political climate. It may be monstrous in its own way, perhaps in expense and scale. Much more will still be needed to redress race and gender disparities. But it can keep alive a vision of shared humanity instead of a version we know will be the end of us all.

NVR is a software program that records video in a digital format to a USB flash drive, SD memory card, or other mass storage device. NVRs are similar to DVRs, but NVRs take video input over a network, as opposed to directly connecting to the NVR via a capture card or tuner. The video is streamed to the NVR for storage or remote viewing. An NVR contains no dedicated video capture hardware. Before installing an NVR, determine if the NVR software will run on a workstation or if a server required.

Consumer Protection & Fraud
CONSUMER PROTECTION & FRAUD: An Overview
Consumer fraud is on the rise, even though the level of consumer transactions has remained fairly stable over the last few years. A study conducted by LexisNexis Risk Solutions, demonstrated that the number of fraudulent transactions from merchants has increased from 80 per month in 2012, to 206 per month in 2016. This is a 157.5% increase in just four years! And, even though the number of prevented fraudulent transactions has spiked, the average monthly value of successful fraudulent transactions was still a staggering $146 million each month.
Experts estimate that consumer fraud costs the U.S. economy between $40 to $50 billion, every year. These figures however, only account for fraud on the retail level; there are several other categories of fraud, such as healthcare and tax fraud that can push the numbers into an astronomical range.
In 2015 alone, the Federal Trade Commission (FTC) the body charged with oversight and enforcement of consumer protections laws, collected 3,083,379 consumer complaints. Here are the Top 10 consumer complaints received by the FTC in order of volume:
Number Percent
Debt Collection 897,655 29 percent
Identity Theft 490,220 16 percent
Imposter Scams 353,770 11 percent
Telephone and Mobile Services 275,754 9 percent
Prizes, Sweepstakes and Lotteries 140,136 5 percent
Banks and Lenders 131,875 4 percent
Shop-At-Home and Catalog Sales 96,363 3 percent
Auto-Related Complaints 93,917 3 percent
Television and Electronic Media 47,728 2 percent
Credit Bureaus, Information Furnishers and Report Users 43,939 1 percent

Q: Flex row occupying height even without the presence of content I use vuejs and quasar framework, I'm customizing a third party component, there is a point where I have nested flex-rows, this is all defined by the inner classes of the quasar, so I can not control this directly so I'm overwriting some parts of the css .
My problem is that even when I have no content the flex-row is rendering a height, and this is not expected, since the row is empty. I need to know how to fix this.
Since some settings come from the quasar and I do not have access I will make available what the browser gives me data after rendering.
the tag with the problem in question is a div:
div{
  align-content: normal;
  align-items: normal;
  align-self: auto;
  alignment-baseline: auto;
  direction: ltr;
  display: flex;
  flex-basis: auto;
  flex-direction: row;
  flex-grow: 0;
  flex-shrink: 1;
  flex-wrap: nowrap;
  height: auto;
}

Apparently the height auto is generating this.

John Page Is On the Run At Tuskegee
March 7, 2018	4	By Michael
John Page is standing in the way of yet another historical first at Tuskegee University, i. e., the selection of the first board chair with strong alumni input.
Photo Credits: Harold Michael Harvey
John Page, Chairman of the Tuskegee Board of Trustees is on the run. He is running to keep his position as board chair of the illustrative and historic Tuskegee University.
Last month, John Page drew opposition from Retired Army Colonel Floyd Griffin who entered the race after repeated calls from alumni and other board members to toss his hat in the ring.
Griffin has secured the endorsement from the family of the school's first principal Booker T. Washington and this week the Tuskegee National Alumni Association (TNAA) voted overwhelmingly to endorse Griffin for chair.
Earlier, Griffin had secured the endorsement of the powerful Concerned Tuskegee Alumni, an independent association of alumni who organized when the national body failed to notify the board that the Atlanta Tuskegee Alumni Association had issued a no vote of confidence in President Brian Johnson.
Johnson was eventually terminated when his contract was not renewed.
To counter alumni efforts to acquire an alum as chairperson of the board, John Page has caused two documents to be released to the Tuskegee community.
First, he released minutes of board meetings, which has been a bone of contention of alumni groups for several years. Although, Page released a semblance of board minutes, it did not give any detail explanation of board activities nor did it disclose any financial records.
Alumni have been calling for a release of a financial report throughout Page's tenure as chairman of the board. He has been stubbornly litigious in refusing to release financial records.
Second, Page released a joint statement on the state of the university that was signed by himself, the Interim President and the Provost. An obvious signature was missing from this joint statement. Bert Rowe, President of TNAA was prohibited from signing off on this statement as a result of the vote taken by regional alumni presidents on a Monday night conference call.
Alumni are calling BS on this joint statement and the purported minutes of recent board meetings.
One alumni leader said, "Page just does not get it. He thinks that the Tuskegee graduate is less smart than graduates from predominantly white institution. Why is he being transparent now? We have asked for board minutes for the last three years and he always has some excuse for why he can not release them. Where are the financial records? Why can't taxpaying Alabama citizens see how the university spends the tax dollars they receive from the state? Why is it that alumni can not attend board meetings?
If things were not bad enough, today Page received news that Dr. Matthew Jenkins, a former Interim President of Tuskegee has issued a letter to board members urging them not to renew Page as board chair.
In his letter to the board, Jenkins notes that "The Matthew and Roberta Jenkins Family Foundation has donated in excess of $12 million to deserving students and academic institutions including… financial donations to the College of Veterinary Medicine and to the Kellogg Hotel and Conference Center's past renovation projects. "
In no uncertain terms, Jenkins writes to the board, "…I must express my great disappointment with Mr. John Page's performance as board chair."
"At this time, Mr. Floyd Griffin is well suited to be elected chairman of the board of trustees. His background in the Georgia state senate and as a city's mayor gives him the abilities required to chair the University's board. Mr. Griffin understands the past and current challenges of Tuskegee," Jenkin wrote.
Should Griffin become the next chair of the Tuskegee Board of Trustees, it will mark the first time that the alumni influenced the selection of the board chair in the 137 year history of the "Pride of the Swift Growing South."
John Page is running to block that history and to negate the influence of alumni concerned about the plight of their HBCU.

Cynthia A. Smith says:
I guess I don't understand why John Page doesn't just leave. Who wants to be in a place where you're not wanted. Page is just as bad as Dr. Johnson.
I notice that when Page had the audacity to tell my husband and I that he wasn't aware of the "Insensitive Johnson Letter". That's the letter that "Buffoon Johnson" sent me after my son was killed. And BJ was a Tuskegee Student too?
Others might have forgotten because it isn't their child, but he was my Son.
And if every one in Hollywood can come out 20 years later and tell what happen to them sexually,
I Damn sure can tell how that board made me feel and both guys were members of the board at that time.
Page knew he was lieing because he was on the board and Floyd was too. I had written a letter to all board members. However to lie to my face was so damn demeaning in a meeting in Atlanta. Talking about adding insult to death, my son's!
Floyd Griffin at least had the common decency to call us several times and apologizing for Dr. Johnson's actions. Floyd didn't have to interfere with Johnson's problem. However Williams ( then current chair) did absolutely nothing even after I went on Television with the letter.
My son has been decease for 4 years now and can't believe this bullshit is still going on. To a grieving mother that 4 years feel like yesterday.
Why would someone that's "A Non Alum" want to manage that board, when you have absolutely "No Reason To Be On That Board, or Better Yet, No Interest."
At least you will finally have a Tuskegee Alum managing the board and hopefully Floyd will surround himself with others that Genuinely Cares About Mother Tuskegee and start fixing the problems.
Page Get Out…
Leslye Joy Allen (Ayọ) says:
Preach Cynthia Smith! And I am so very sorry for your loss. I am indeed sorry that this is happening at your alma mater Michael. But I have noticed an unfortunate trend at a lot of HBCUs, and that is entrenched board members and presidents that stay too long. Any power held too long is always power corrupted. A similar drama is also going on at Hampton, but the students themselves have staged a walkout. I would urge folks to take a look at Spelman College (an-all female HBCU) and Agnes Scott College (an all-female predominatly white college) over their last 30 years. Both institutions (I attended both and graduated Agnes Scott) have not had college presidents that have stayed longer than 10-15 years. HBCUs suffer when college presidents and their minions on the board run these institutions like their own personal fiefdoms; and it is going to take a lot of pressure to get rid of these miscreants. However, it is also going to require a push for a different set of rules and regulations that may require term limits for both presidents and board members. Importantly, Tuskegee, like most institutions needs younger, fresher leadership.
William Jones says:
The alumni have sent a unified message to the board. The Concerned Alumni For Change, the largest and most powerful group has made it clear they want to turn the Page. I will acknowledge I did believe these people were crazy and "Renegades". Or at least that is how they were described at a meeting one time. We formerly uninvolved and disconnected alumni are awake now. I am not reluctant to say if it were not for this group I would not have a clue of what was going on at the school. Surprisingly even the docile lifeless TNAA has also spoken in support of Floyd Griffin.
Any trustee to go against the expressed will of the people must concede that they are willing to purposely disregard and ignore the outcry of alumni. Their alliance is not to Tuskegee University nor is their allegiance. Alumni must use their influence and encourage trustees to support and vote for Griffin.
Major donors and contributors to the Eminent Associates have made it clear, they support
Floyd Griffin.
Seeing the alumni unified gives Mother Tuskegee hope!
Mr. Jones, in the early days when I first sounded the alarm that something was wrong with the administration of the university, I was buked and scorned by fellow alumni who supported a non-alumni president over their fellow alum. I welcome other alumni to the fray. Together we can restore honor to our beloved Tuskegee University and assist in lifting the veil to generations yet unborn.I am told that Page has instructed other Trustees not to open emails from alumni, so they may not have received the message. If this turns out to be the case, the alumni must be willing to take strong and decisive action so the Board will know in no uncertain terms, that the alumni demand to be a co-equal partner in the preservation of the Tuskegee legacy.

The 157th Infantry: Colorado's Forgotten Regiment
This map from the Library of Congress shows the movements of the 45th Infantry Division in Rhineland in 1944 and 1945 near the end of the war. The 157th Regiment was part of this division.
On the 75th anniversary of the end of World War II, the Broomfield Veterans Memorial Museum invites you to immerse yourself in the lives and heroism of the men and women who fought for our country.
Our first Virtual Coffee & Conversation spotlights Colorado's 157th Infantry Regiment.
With its advent during the earliest days of the Colorado Territory, the 157th's predecessors battled the Confederates during the battle of Glorieta Pass in New Mexico, fought in the Philippines during the Spanish-American War, and saw action in France during World War I.
World War II, however, would be the regiment's defining moment. Through 511 hard days of combat in the European theater, the "Thunderbirds" made four assault landings and was credited with saving the Salerno and Anzio beachheads.
Did you know that over 3,000 Native Americans fought as part of this Division? Or that the 157th was instrumental in the liberation of the horrific Dachau concentration camp?
Learn more about this fascinating history by checking out Flint Whitlock's Coffee & Conversation presentation from May 12, 2018 at the video below or here.
To go even deeper, you can purchase Flint Whitlock's book about the 45th Infantry Division, The Rock of Anzio, here.

Q: Laravel updateOrInsert with 'OR' or 'AND' operator in first arguments? While it is possible to have multiple arguments for the updateOrInsert in Laravel query builder and what is the operator used by default.
For example in the documentation it is mentioned:
DB::table('users')
    ->updateOrInsert(
        ['email' => 'john@example.com', 'name' => 'John'],
        ['votes' => '2']
    );

Does that mean that email && name are checked or does it mean email || name is checked? How can we control it for one or the other if required?
Please forgive me if this is a silly question or if it is not worded as per the correct vocabulary, as I am new to Laravel. I couldn't find this information in the documentation or API.

A: updateOrInsert() method is used to update an existing record in the database if matching the condition or create if no matching record exists. Its return type is Boolean.
Syntax :
DB::table('blogs')->updateOrInsert(
   [Conditions],
   [fields with value]
);

In your query :
DB::table('users')->updateOrInsert(
   ['email' => 'john@example.com', 'name' => 'John'],
   ['votes' => '2']
);

It will check if email == 'john@example.com' & name == 'john', then it will update votes=2.

Why is Hawaiʻi a Great Analog for Mars?
by PISCES | Dec 5, 2018
Above: Mauna Loa's barren and rugged volcanic slopes (shown left) bear a striking resemblance to the rocky, rust-colored surface of Mars (right).
Hawaiʻi is a valuable testing ground for space exploration technologies—in part due to its expansive, isolated basaltic lava fields that resemble the Moon and Mars. But besides sharing a similar appearance, Hawaiʻiʻs volcanic landscapes also resemble the lunar and Martian surfaces in chemical composition.
The materials science team at PISCES has been collecting and analyzing samples of volcanic basalt from various locations on Hawaiʻi island to determine which work best for additive manufacturing—specifically, the process of sintering. Recently, PISCES geologist Kyla Edison began analyzing these samples and comparing them with Martian rock data gathered by NASA—specifically, Martian meteorites. The results revealed many similarities.
"At first I was skeptical, but the data proved sound and I was amazed," Kyla said. "There are tiny variances between Hawaiʻi and Mars, but they are extremely similar."
Kyla also compared Hawaiʻi basalt samples with Mars regolith simulant (MGS-1) and data from NASA's Pathfinder rover on Martian regolith. In all cases, Hawaiian lava rock appeared nearly identical in composition to Martian rock.
Gathering the data was more than a stone's throw. Over the last 18 months, Kyla and interns on the materials science team have been gathering samples and breaking them down into fine pellets for analysis. Using an Energy Dispersive X-Ray Fluorescence (EDXRF) spectrometer, they parsed the elemental compositions of these samples and created visual representations of the data (shown below). The goal in this research is to determine the ideal rock type that will consistently produce a stable product through sintering.
"We want to find the perfect temperature and the perfect rock material," Kyla said.
During the next phase of the research, the team will run Hawaiian basalt samples through an X-ray Diffraction machine to determine their exact crystal and mineral content. The data they get back will be combined with an original data set, providing a comprehensive catalogue of terrestrial basalts. The overview will ultimately reveal which properties yield the best sintering product.
"Basically, it's like finding the ideal recipe for baking a cake. And we're in the process of writing the book," Kyla said.
Results from these studies will presented in formal scientific papers at several aerospace conferences next year. The presentations could forge new partnerships to further basalt sintering research and In-Situ Resource Utilization (ISRU) technology.
The composition of a Martian meteorite (red) is shown in comparison to Hawaiian basalt samples sourced from eight locations on Hawaii Island. The overlapping lines represent the similarity of their compositions. Note: The value of FeO for the Martian meteorite was not available.


Kate, an up and coming cellist, is new to Chicago and the 'Windy City Chamber Ensemble'. During her first rehearsal, she is surprised and intrigued to meet Vivian Kensington, the formidable by reputation board president who also happens to be…deaf. As Kate treads the waters of a rocky relationship with the young and foolhardy Ash, she develops a tentative friendship with her cold-hearted boss. As she does, she finds a kindness and a warmth that she never expected. As their friendship grows into something more, Kate wonders, is Ash really who she wants? Or is Vivian who she desires? Is it possible for two women, one from a world of sound and one a world of silence, to truly understand one another?

Between the wars they were used for policing duties by the Royal Air Force in Iraq, Egypt and India.

Behind drug approval procedures
Have you sometimes wondered how that medicine saved the life or alleviated your pain got to your hands? For a drug to be available to improve your quality of life, an investigation process that requires years, money, the experts' knowledge and the good will of people is needed. All medicine, surgery or medical device requires clinical studies to be approved. According to neurologist Carlos A. Luciano, associated director of the Clinical Research Center of the Medical Sciences Campus, a well-designed clinical study is the most appropriate and efficient form to demonstrate the effectiveness of a treatment, because it allows to observe the side effects and the toxicity of the treatment.
