George Knapp (GK): Dr. Jim Lacatski, there has been considerable speculation, fueled in part by statements from the DoD spokesperson that the $22 million that was secured by Senator Reid and his colleagues in Congress to fund this program and study, had nothing to do with UFOs. It was really just a study of future technologies, presumably by our adversaries, that it was really just that.

GK: Can you address whether AAWSAP was first and foremost an investigation of UFO phenomena? Why isn't it made obvious in any of the documentation that's been made public so far?
Dr. James Lacatski (JL): "It was completely UFO related. The reason you haven't seen the documentation is we used a statement of objectives format for the request for proposal. That is insufficient for anyone examining the contents of the contract. They must have the proposal.
Part of the BAASS Proposal – Excerpted from "Skinwalkers at the Pentagon"
JL: Now within the proposal, and in this case, it was from Bigelow Aerospace Advanced Space Studies, it's clearly mentioned among the topics proposed, a worldwide database of Advanced Aerospace Vehicles. There can be no ambiguity here, this was being proposed as a UFO project. Now, if you want to look at the tail end of the project, you'll find over one hundred documents required to be reported to the Defense Intelligence Agency that were UFO-related, in part, of course. I mean, they were large, very large documents. And you also have technical studies, and you have that database, probably the largest UFO database that exists in the world and is currently being used by the U.S. military. So yes, it was completely a UFO project.
Appendix I Excerpt – Excerpted from "Skinwalker at the Pentagon"
GK: One of the other things has been confusing for the public, over the last almost four years, the New York Times and other major media outlets reported that that $22 million went to AATIP, not to AAWSAP. Can you clarify the difference between AAWSAP and AATIP?
From the December 16th, 2017, NYT Article on AATIP
JL: Yes, I'm the name AATIP was a nickname for AAWSAP for certain security reasons, that we've put into the book. But the difference between AAWSAP with the nickname AATIP, at DIA, and AATIP at the Pentagon, is quite distinct. AAWSAP had $22 million of funding. It covered military and civilian UFOs, yielding a massive database. It also had a main contract and subcontracts. Now, AATIP in the Pentagon, as described in the articles, was basically zero funded, looked at specific military UFO encounters – and very important ones because they had film – and it had no contract. So getting back to how did this mix up occur? I think it's not deliberate, it's not due to to authors, to television personalities, etc. It's the fact we were running, not an official SAP, but a closed program. I can tell you for a fact that within my own office, they did not know, except leadership, that this contract was being run. They had no idea whatsoever. Our security was that tight. And also, the fact is, is that…well, I guess that pretty much says it. That's the best example I can give.
GK: Dr. Colm Kelleher, you were program manager at BAASS. Can you describe, in sort of broad terms, the operation at BAASS, how many people were hired, in what timeframe? And what did they do? I mean, was this a real investigation of UFOs and related phenomena, and how did it work?
Dr. Colm Kelleher (CK): Well, I was hired in November of 2008. The AAWSAP program ran from September 2008 to late 2010. So one of the first tasks that I had for coming on board was to put together a team of UFO-focused investigators as quickly as possible. So, I was thinking back on this and between November 2008, and probably April 2009, I personally conducted about three hundred telephone interviews in an attempt to recruit different people for different positions at AAWSAP. And in addition, I did at least a hundred, face-to-face interviews in my office in that period of time. So, we're talking about a pretty rapid clip in terms of bringing forth a lot of people into the office, sometimes there were one or two people outside. But our focus was in hiring a team of PhD-level scientists, that would include physics and biology, master's level scientists, technicians. We also looked for database analysts, and military intelligence personnel who had a long history investigative background. And of course, we also were looking for a lot of security officers, because security was a big issue.
Interestingly, one of our program managers was a twenty-year veteran of the Air Force Office of Special Investigations, also known as a AFOSI. And this guy was a very, very seasoned investigator and he helped us a lot in what turned out to be [an] attempted formation of a relationship with AFOSI, which is discussed in the book. But all of this hiring and recruitment occurred within a four or five-month period. I think by the end of May of 2009, we had a team of about fifty people. And George, when you consider that this was a twenty-four month contract…so not only were we putting together the security infrastructure of this large organization, and that included facility security clearances, getting everything up to a level that was sufficient for inspections, but hiring these people, training all of these different people. And then we executed multiple programs. side-by-side. And all of this happened in a twenty-four-month period. So we were on a pretty rapid clip and I would say – I've worked with government organizations in the past, NASA and DoD in other capacities – putting that kind of level of activity together in a twenty-four-month period, I think was pretty extraordinary. And obviously, Dr. Lacatski's input in Washington, DC, in greasing the wheels to make all of this happen, putting together a pretty large organization that was focused only on UFO investigations, that was the key.
GK: You know, one of the most disturbing aspects of the investigation that you both cooperated in and headed, is highlighted in this book: The medical and physical consequences of close encounters and not just lights in the sky and people maybe seeing structured craft, but also, other related phenomena that resulted in documented physical effects, some of them pretty serious effects. Dr. Kelleher, can you tell us a little bit about what was learned about the medical consequences of these encounters and maybe provide an example?
CK: Yes, we had multiple streams of cases pertaining to UFOs that were coming in. We were also examining multiple databases, some of which were pilot databases, military pilots, civilian pilots. And we were databasing a very large number of cases. We had what we call the data warehouse that has eleven separate databases of UAP cases from around the world and from within the United States.
Excerpted from "Skinwalkers at the Pentagon"
The Data Warehouse comprised eleven separate databases and their associated supporting documentation in electronic format—such as witness interviews, photographs, videos, record- ings, sketches, analytical reports, and more. Each of the databases contained UAP sighting events that related to the purpose of that particular database, although some of the reported cases did overlap.
The eleven databases included in the AAWSAP BAASS Data Warehouse were:
(1) NIDS Database
(2) Airline and Mil-itary Pilot Database
(3) Project Sign/Grudge/Blue Book Database
(4) UFOCAT Database
(5) MUFON Case Management System Database
(6) Project Colares Database
(7) Canadian Government UAP Release Database
(8) United Kingdom Government UAP Release Database
(9) AAWSAP BAASS Database of cases investigated internally 2008-2010
(10) Skinwalker Ranch Database
(11) An "eyes only" database documenting physiological effects from individuals who had spent time on the Skinwalker Ranch.
CK: And we actually data-based several hundred cases where individuals, both here and and beyond the United States, had encountered UFOs and had had physiological effects, pathological effects and medical effects, some of which [the] medical effects were quite serious. And to that end, in terms of real-time investigations in medical, UFO effects, we had two physician scientists, and I'm talking MD PhDs, that were consultants with AAWSAP. And their task was basically to be as a part of a team that would go out and investigate UAP-related injuries. We had a few that were real time. And normally, during a UFO investigation, investigators may spend a few days with the witnesses. In terms of these medical-type investigations, these investigations went on sometimes for months and sometimes for years. And a lot of these investigations involved taking of blood samples, analytical chemistry, hematology of blood samples, immune system parameters, sometimes MRIs were done, all under the HIPAA standards. We were very careful to observe all patient confidentiality and HIPAA dictates.
So, we came across a few outstanding cases in terms oof medical injuries. I can give you an example of one. There was a biotechnologist that was driving towards Bend, Oregon and he had his daughter in the car. And the daughter noticed, off in the field, three unusual, unidentified objects that seemed to be erratically flying close to the ground, they were small. And right after she noticed this, they came towards the car and the biotechnologist, as he was driving, two of these objects came into the vehicle. One passed right in front of father and daughter, right across the dashboard, the other one through his left shoulder and exited through his right shoulder. These were small, approximately baseball-sized objects. We still have not a good ascertainment of exactly what those objects were, but right afterwards, this guy began to feel dizzy, he began to feel nauseous.
The following morning he woke up, there was a lot of pain in his left side. His left face was very, very sunburnt. He started, within a couple of days or a week, losing hair on his left side, His left eye began to decrease in acuity, his left ear began to go downhill. Long story short, our physician scientists followed this guy and his family over several months. A few months later, this guy came down with a rare form of ductal carcinoma and luckily was was able to be treated. But multiple blood samples were taken over that time, and sort of a very cohesive picture was put together so that a complete story of what we thought was a high probability of medical injury occurring as a result of this close encounter with unidentified flying objects. There are other cases that we explain in the book, but that one in particular, was followed, actually, for years.
GK: Just one last comment from each of you. We all have been working on it, you guys more than I have, for a couple of years, putting this together, it's finally out. Dr. Licatski, Jim, fourteen months it took to get the stamp of approval from the DoD. I imagine you were kind of sweating it out there. Can you tell me about that process and how you feel about what emerged from that process?
JL: Well, I'm glad that we finally got a public release authority. And frankly, I understood all of their concerns, what we had to rewrite in the book, and what do we had to remove and put in. I wasn't really sweating it because I was almost in constant communication with them. Very pleasant people I was dealing with, and I understood their situation during the pandemic, they were working off site. But they had to process it through secure channels because you don't know what's in the book until [you read it]. So they had to process it as if it had maybe Top Secret-SCI information in it. Of course, it didn't, but nevertheless, they had to handle it that way. They had to go into work [and] transfer to various organizations for their review and approval. But it eventually occurred and I'm glad we got that approval for release.
GK: Colm, you excited? It must be like giving birth, (Kelleher laughs) huh? To have this finally out, to be able to tell this story?
CK: Yeah, I think it's been a long time coming and I think the book, as it comes out, should be able to address a certain level of confusion, especially in the media over the last four years. There has been sort of a focus on (his audio cut out but I'm think he said the focus has been on Skinwalker Ranch). The book will encapsulate the entire program. And I think it is a complete summary of the of the two year, the twenty-four-month program that occurred. And as Jim said, over one hundred reports, during that twenty-four months, were submitted to the Defense Intelligence Agency, both electronically and by paper. I remember standing in my office, actually, in Las Vegas, with the paper copies in three-ring binders, and that set of data actually went to about six feet high on the floor in my office. I mean, it was an incredible stash of data, because it encompassed not only monthly reports, but also reports that were deep dives into specific cases, and also topics. So, I think it's about time that the entire story of AAWSAP is being told. And Dr. Lacatski was the driving force in Washington DC and I was the day-to-day manager in Las Vegas. So, I think between the two of us, we've come up with a pretty good summary of what the whole program looked like.
GK: I think people will really enjoy seeing the genesis of the Tic Tac investigation, how that was explained in the book. Also, what I liked was the inside baseball of how all of you, Senator Reid, Robert Bigelow, fought to get the program on and get it up and running, but also to defend it from predators in the Pentagon who eventually caused a lot of trouble. I mean, can you imagine if AAWSAP and BAASS had been allowed to continue, how far down the road we would be in understanding these mysteries? Okay, well, first of many conversations to come. I'm looking forward to how the public reacts to the book, and I'll be talking to you guys soon.
CK: Okay, thanks George, appreciate it.
JL: Thank you.
In my opinion, "Skinwalkers at the Pentagon" is one of the most important UFO-related books in a very long time. It shows us the direction we need to head if we want to have any chance of understanding the phenomenon.

Marty POTTENGER probably didn't intend her one-act play to leave the impression that the rich are more interesting than you and me, but it does.
According to the program notes, Ms. Pottenger interviewed more than 30 minimum-wage American workers and 30 multimillionaires to guide her in this comment on economic inequity and its consequences. But it's only when her creation Laz (Joe Gioco), a 91-year-old near-billionaire businessman, rolls onto center stage in his wheelchair that the play crackles with energy.
"Got rid of the Impressionists years ago," Laz says as he shows off some of the art he's selling. "All those irritating dots and pastels."
When Laz isn't around, "Abundance" takes the form of choreographed movement - what seems to be group therapy meetings about money - and "word arias," performed by five actors playing multiple roles, calling out fast facts about the economy or themselves.
The cast does fine, but the "word aria" form can be tiresome. Ms. Pottenger does make some excellent points. It's startling to hear how sharply American gas consumption would drop if the average fuel efficiency of S.U.V.'s increased by just three miles a gallon. It's important, but it's awfully dogmatic theater.
This play, directed by Ms. Pottenger and Steve Bailey, continues through next Saturday.

This program is a simulation smoother based on Carter and Kohn's \"On Gibbs
Sampling for State Space Models\" (Biometrika, 1994). It recursively samples
from the conditional distribution of time-t states given the full set of
observables and states from time t+1 to time T. Unlike the Durbin-Koopman
simulation smoother, this one does rely on inverting potentially singular
matrices using the Moore-Penrose pseudoinverse.

The state space is augmented with shocks (see `?augment_states_with_shocks`),
and the augmented state space is Kalman filtered and smoothed. Finally, the
smoothed states and shocks are indexed out of the augmented state vectors.

The original state space (before augmenting with shocks) is given by:

```
s_{t+1} = C + T*s_t + R*ϵ_t    (transition equation)
y_t     = D + Z*s_t + u_t      (measurement equation)

ϵ_t ∼ N(0, Q)
u_t ∼ N(0, E)
Cov(ϵ_t, u_t) = 0
```

### Inputs

- `y`: `Ny` x `Nt` matrix containing data `y_1, ... , y_T`
- `s_0`: `Ns` x 1 initial state vector
- `P_0`: `Ns` x `Ns` initial state covariance matrix

**Method 1 only:** state-space system matrices `T`, `R`, `C`, `Q`, `Z`,
`D`, `E`. See `?kalman_filter`
pp
**Method 2 only:** `regime_indices` and system matrices for each regime `Ts`,
`Rs`, `Cs`, `Qs`, `Zs`, `Ds`, `Es`. See `?kalman_filter`

where:

- `Nt`: number of periods for which we have data
- `Ns`: number of states
- `Ne`: number of shocks
- `Ny`: number of observables

### Keyword Arguments

- `Nt0`: if greater than 0, the returned smoothed states and shocks matrices
  will be shorter by that number of columns (taken from the beginning)
- `draw_states`: indicates whether to draw smoothed states from the distribution
  `N(s_{t|T}, P_{t|T})` or to use the mean `s_{t|T}` (reducing to the Hamilton
  smoother)

### Outputs

- `s_smth`: `Ns` x `Nt` matrix of smoothed states `s_{t|T}`
- `ϵ_smth`: `Ne` x `Nt` matrix of smoothed shocks `ϵ_{t|T}`

Q: Can I resolve a collection of services of open typed generics with 'GetServices(typeof(IEmpty<>))' in C#? Having the following interface and their implementations...
public interface IEmpty<T> { }
public class Empty1 : IEmpty<Empty1>{ }
public class Empty2 : IEmpty<Empty2>{ }
public class EmptyN : IEmpty<EmptyN>{ }

allows me to register them and inject them explicitly into constructors
public class NewClass1 {
private IEmpty<Empty1> Empty;
    public NewClass1(IEmpty<Empty1> empty)
    {
        Empty = empty;
    }
    public string EmptyType => $"{Empty.GetType()}";
}

but when I tried to resolve all implementations of 'IEmpty<>' at once...
var allIEmpties = host.Services.GetServices(typeof(IEmpty<>));
allIEmpties.ToList().ForEach(empty => Console.WriteLine(empty.GetType()));

... execution of the code threw a 'NotSupportedException' (Cannot create arrays of open type), which I kind of understand, but leaves me wondering if it can be done and how it would have to be done to get a handle on all Services implementing IEmpty.
Would anyone have an idea of how to achieve this?

My motivation to get this working is to

*

*only register each service once (DRY)

*be able to explicity inject services into constructors without the need of some resolver-pattern or named dependencies

*load all implementations after startup to validate specific properties they are requried to implement due to the interfaces without having to search reflectively through all assemblies, which is my temporary solution but crawling through a box of needles to find 2 specific ones sounds wrong, if I could have a sorted box offering me direct access to the needles I need...

Using these additional nuget packages:

*

*Microsoft.Extensions.DependencyInjection

*Microsoft.Extensions.Hosting

*Microsoft.Extensions.Hosting.Abstractions

I have created this proof of concept snippet in LinqPad, in case you'd want to have a go:
void Main()
{
    var args = new List<string>();

    var host = CreateHostBuilder(args.ToArray()).Build();

    var newClass = host.Services.GetService<NewClass1>();
    Console.WriteLine(newClass.EmptyType);

    var oneEmpty = host.Services.GetService(typeof(IEmpty<Empty2>));
    Console.WriteLine(oneEmpty.GetType());

    var allIEmpties = host.Services.GetServices(typeof(IEmpty<>));
    allIEmpties.ToList().ForEach(empty => Console.WriteLine(empty.GetType()));
}

IHostBuilder CreateHostBuilder(string[] args)
{
    var hostBuilder =
        Host.CreateDefaultBuilder(args)
            .ConfigureAppConfiguration((context, builder) => {
                builder.SetBasePath(Directory.GetCurrentDirectory());
            })
            .ConfigureServices((context, services) => {
                services.AddTransient<IEmpty<Empty1>, Empty1>();
                services.AddTransient<IEmpty<Empty2>, Empty2>();
                services.AddTransient<IEmpty<EmptyN>, EmptyN>();
                services.AddTransient<NewClass1>();
            });
    return hostBuilder;
}

public class NewClass1 {
    private IEmpty<Empty1> Empty;
    public NewClass1(IEmpty<Empty1> empty)
    {
        Empty = empty;
    }
    public string EmptyType => $"{Empty.GetType()}";
}

public interface IEmpty<T> {}
public class Empty1 : IEmpty<Empty1>{ }
public class Empty2 : IEmpty<Empty2>{ }
public class EmptyN : IEmpty<EmptyN>{ }

A: Resolving a list of generic types based on its open-generic definition by calling GetServices(typeof(IEmpty<>)) is not supported by MS.DI. Although technically possible, there is no DI Container that I'm familiar with that actually supports this.
There are many possible ways to solve your issue. You could, for instance, introduce a non-generic IEmpty (marker) interface that IEmpty<T> inherits from.
You can also go through the code base using Reflection, as you already mentioned, or you can go through the registrations in the ServiceCollection to get all registered IEmpty<T> registrations. This list can than be used to get the list. For instance:
var emptyTypes =
    from s in services
    where s.ServiceType.IsGenericType
    where s.ServiceType.GetGenericTypeDefinition() == typeof(IEmpty<>)
    select s.ServiceType;

foreach (Type emptyType in emptyTypes)

Who else was there and how was the atmosphere, you can check i on the video bellow.


Which links me to the adventurous KokKiong and Jolly. They shared about their experiences and plans to hike around the mountainous region of our neighbouring countries.
In deeper thoughts, hiking is a good illustration of what a relationship or marriage is actually like. It exercises the couple to understand each other flaws and strength; and develop a better understanding and accommodation to one another as they progress to greater milestons in life. That is definitely a brilliant way to find a balance between two individuals.
To KokKiong and Jolly, thanks for the wonderful experience and to be part of your important chapter of your life. Have an awesome marriage and more explorations in the near future geographically and sentimentally.

ОТ М-60 () — бронетранспортёр, изготовленный в Югославии.

Описание

Бронетранспортер М-60 был разработан югославскими конструкторами и поставлен в серийное производство в 1964 году, впервые был продемонстрирован на параде 1965-го года в Белграде. Компоновка этого БТР во многом напоминает знаменитый американский M-113. Место водителя находится в левой передней части бронетранспортера, позади располагается место командира. Справа от водителя установлено место стрелка-радиста, с которого он может воспользоваться пулемётом M-53 калибра 7.92 мм через бойницу в передней верхней детали корпуса. За радистом установлено место стрелка из зенитного пулемёта, над которым установлена турель для зенитного пулемёта Browning M2 калибра 12,7 мм. Сразу же за местом командира располагается десантное отделение, рассчитанное на девять человек. Десантирование проходило через двери в корме корпуса, каждая из которых оснащена смотровым окошком, и через люки в крыше корпуса. Также имелось по три амбразуры по бортам корпуса для стрельбы из личного оружия десанта.

БТР оснащался шестицилиндровым дизельным двигателем FAMOS FFTR мощностью 140 л. с. с линейным расположением цилиндров, благодаря которому мог развивать скорость до 43 км/ч и проходить до 400 километров по твёрдым поверхностям. Устанавливались 5-ступенчатые коробки переключения передач типа "5Mn50.32" с 5 скоростями вперёд и 1 назад. С начала 1970-х к названию БТР добавлена литера "П" (M-60P) по причине внедрения планетарных передач в механизм управления.

Броня состояла из стальных бронелистов толщиной 15 мм.

Средства наблюдения:

- перископ M2-61 для командира, водителя и стрелка-радиста;

- ИК-оборудование для езды и наблюдения ночью M-66A1 (перископ бинокулярного типа с дальностью видимости до 70 метров и полем обзора 30°).

БТР производился в период с 1964 года по 1979 год, на вооружение югославской армии поступило около 790 машин (из них 190 - на экспорт, в основном, для Ирака) в нескольких вариантах: десантный БТР М-60P, противотанковый М-60PB, оснащённый спаренными 82-мм безоткатными орудиями, БТР с 82-мм миномётом, санитарный, а также командный варианты. М-60 активно использовались в боевых действиях в бывшей Югославии. Они в значительном числе попали в новосозданные армии: хорватскую армию, армию Сербской Краины, армию боснийских сербов и армию боснийских мусульман. После преобразования ЮНА в Войско Югославии, а затем в Войска Сербии и Черногории, этот бронетранспортер был снят с вооружения. Некоторое количество было передано подразделениям полиции, остальные были уничтожены согласно договорам об ограничении количества вооружений в регионе.

Средства связи
На бронетранспортёрах М-60П могут быть установлены радиостанции Р-113 или Р-123, либо одновременно Р-123 и Р-112.

БТР оснащённый радиостанциями Р-123 и Р-112 называется командным бронетранспортёром.Кроме радиостанций Р-112 или Р-123 в БТРе размещается переносная радиостанция RUP-3 (кроме командной машины), с помощью которой поддерживается связь между БТР и командиром взвода, когда отделение находится вне машины и действует вдали.

Радиостанции командного БТР обеспечивают следующие возможности:

Командиру подразделения:

 со своего места (переднее правое сиденье в отделении управления возле радиостанции Р-123) работать с радиостанциями (Р-123 или Р-112) из транспортёра, а также поддерживать внутреннюю связь с одним из членов экипажа (офицером штаба, стрелком ЗПУ, водителем или радио-телефонистом);
 со своего резервного места поддерживать внутреннюю связь со всеми членами экипажа БТР;
 при необходимости использовать коммутатор А-2 радио-телефониста, который находится в задней части транспортёра, для поддержания внешней связи.

Радио-телефонисту:

 поддерживать внешнюю радио-связь через свободную радиостанцию при одновременной работе командира подразделения;
 поддерживать внутреннюю связь со всеми членами экипажа.

Офицеру штаба:

 при подключении через коммутатор А-5 поддерживать внутреннюю связь со всеми членами экипажа и командиром;
 при подключении через коммутатор А-2 провести необходимый разговор с внешним участником.

Dances With Films 2015: 'Welcome to Happiness' - Film Review
How do you find happiness? What do you do about regret? What would you do if you had a chance to change a single mistake in your life? These are some of the questions explored in the quirky and fun Welcome to Happiness, which screened at Dances With Films on Sunday.
'Enter the Janitor:' Book Review
Enter the Janitor is a unique and cleverly written book about the secret, semi-Men in Black-style organization that keeps things clean, both literally and figuratively. And, keeping things clean is a messy business sometimes. Just ask Ben, the Janitor. He doesn't just mop floors and clean windows. It's his job to protect the world from Scum and Corruption, which lurk just beneath the world we think we know.
Dances With Films 2015: 'Echo Lake' – Film Review
I rather enjoyed Echo Lake, which has me a bit worried. The film, which screened at Dances With Films earlier this week, was explained to me as having an unlikable protagonist, and without a happy ending. Well, I rather liked and, furthermore, identified with, the protagonist. And, though the ending isn't exactly tied up with a ribbon and bows, I found it happy in its own small way, or at least satisfying.
'Parallax:' Film Review
Parallax is the story of a man trying to create the Internet, sort of. Taking place in the 1980s, he uses television sets and radio waves to build a revolutionary, new communications device that will connect everyone to everyone else. In the meantime, he himself becomes more and more isolated, as he withdraws into his obsession with making his dream a reality.
Dances With Films 2015: 'Actor for Hire' - Film Review
The basic plot synopsis for Actor for Hire, which premiered at Dances With Films this week and was written/directed by Marcus Mizelle, goes something like this: A bald actor, down on his luck and struggling to find work in L.A., buys himself a wig and suddenly finds everything starting to go his way. This is technically accurate, but there's much more to it than that. Actor for Hire is a funny, real, and often an uncomfortable look at what it takes to make it in the business.
Dances With Films 2015: 'SuperBob' - Film Review
For pretty much anyone who's reading this, chances are, at some point in your life, you've wanted to be a superhero. Having superhuman powers would be amazing, of course, but the appeal is more than that. It's the confidence they project, the respect they command, and the unflappable nobility that they exude that makes superheroes so cool, and that makes us long to be them.
Dances With Films 2015: 'Shevenge' - Film Review
Shevenge, an 11-minute film which screened at the Dances With Films festival on Saturday evening, is the tale of three women and the men who wronged them. Each of them spins an elaborate revenge fantasy, which the three of them proceed to act out in their collective imaginations.
'Wart #2:' Comic Book Review
About a year ago, I reviewed a web comic called Wart which claimed to be inspired by the works of H.P. Lovecraft. A lot of comics, movies, and other forms of entertainment make this claim. Many of them mainly slap the name "Cthulhu" on their creation somewhere and call it a day. Wart, however, was actually able to capture the truly morbid and macabre feel of Lovecraft's work—and infuse it with comedy.
'Future Proof #5:' Advance Comic Book Review
It's 1910. A group of highly influential bankers meets in a smoke-filled train car to decide the nation's financial future—and, ultimately, ruin it in order to line their own pockets; however, our intrepid time agents have different ideas. Are they going to save the country? Being that their previous assignments have included killing Kennedy and saving Hitler, it's doubtful that things are that simple; however, whatever they end up doing, their AI-god, The Sing, has determined that it's the best course of action to ensure the future, so they carry it out without question.
'Indestructible Volume 2: Fake It Till You Make It' - TPB Review
Indestructible follows Greg Pincus, an ordinary man who, due to a little misunderstanding and a lot of outright lies, finds himself thrust into the world of superheroes—despite the fact that he has no actual superpowers. In the previous volume, we saw Greg enjoying the celebrity status that this misunderstanding has afforded him. Now in Volume 2, he has to put his money where his mouth is.

A DOL official stepped down after lawmakers voiced concern that he might have been working on union-related policy work at the agency while still representing an employer in a suit against a union.
A Labor Department official who continued legal work against an Ironworkers' union after joining the agency has stepped down from his post.
Associate Deputy Labor Secretary Michael Avakian resigned effective April 5, a Labor Department official told Bloomberg Law. The move comes less than one month after Bloomberg Law reported that Avakian was briefly suspended following an ethics inquiry.
"He moved back into the private sector," the official said.
Avakian's resignation also comes after House Democrats requested information about his work on the lawsuit for more than three months after joining the DOL last year. Lawmakers have voiced concern that Avakian may have been working on union-related policy work at the same time he was representing D5 Iron Works Inc. in the lawsuit against an Ironworkers local union in Indiana.
Avakian filed two motions on behalf of D5 Iron Works Inc. and participated in a pair of conference calls with the judge in the case after joining the department last April. He was suspended without pay for two weeks last year for exercising "bad judgment," a DOL spokeswoman previously told Bloomberg Law.
Labor Department officials determined that Avakian didn't use government resources for the case and didn't "knowingly" violate "a criminal statute or particular ethics rule," the department spokeswoman said. Instead, he misunderstood what ethics officials meant when they instructed Avakian to "wrap up" his work on the case.
Avakian's involvement in the case against the Ironworkers union while employed by the DOL raises questions about the overall work of the federal agency, Kathleen Clark, an ethics lawyer who teaches at Washington University in St. Louis, told Bloomberg Law.
"This is a really serious violation because it undermines the ability of the public to trust the government on these issues," Clark said, and to believe the DOL is working for the public's interest as opposed to one private company's interest.
Democrats in a March 18 letter to the DOL asked about other cases in which Avakian may have been involved while at the department. They also requested copies of all department ethics rules applicable to Avakian, information on which department officials knew about Avakian's continued involvement in the D5 Iron Works case, and whether the DOL conducted investigations into other agency staff for similar transgressions.
Avakian was a longtime labor litigator who worked for Atlanta-based law firm Wimberly & Lawson and represented the conservative advocacy group Center on National Labor Policy before joining the DOL.
D5 Iron Works alleges in its lawsuit that union leaders used physical violence in an attempt to secure a collective bargaining agreement at a construction site. Federal prosecutors charged a pair of union officials with labor extortion less than two weeks after Avakian withdrew from the case.

Optometrists (O.D.'s) – A doctor of optometry receives his degree after four years of post graduate training in a college of optometry. Optometrists are licensed to perform comprehensive eye exams, prescribe glasses and contact lenses and to treat many types of eye disease including conjunctivitis (pink eye or red eye) and glaucoma. Optometrists typically do not perform surgery. Instead they receive additional training on understanding and treating the functional aspects of vision – how to help people see the best they can in their day to day lives.
Ophthalmologists – Ophthalmologists are medical doctors (M.D.'s) or osteopaths (D.O.'s) who take a three to five year residency in eye care after they receive their medical degree. In addition to providing comprehensive eye examinations, ophthalmologists are able to prescribe eye medications and perform surgery. Some ophthalmologists go on for additional training and become specialists in certain areas such as retinal, corneal, cataract and glaucoma treatment.
Opticians – Opticians are professionals specially trained to fit, fabricate and dispense eyeglasses. Many provinces also allow opticians to dispense contact lenses. Opticians do not perform comprehensive eye health examinations.
Which one should you choose for your routine comprehensive eye exams – an ophthalmologist or an optometrist? Obviously I may be biased, but I know today's optometrists are well trained and skilled at detecting eye disease. If specialized medical or surgical treatment is ever needed, we will quickly arrange for you to see the right ophthalmologist who specializes in your particular eye care problem.

Charles Booker forms exploratory committee for US Senate run

LOUISVILLE, Ky. (AP) — Democrat Charles Booker, whose unabashedly progressive campaign in Kentucky came up just short in last year's Senate primary, said Monday that he's forming an exploratory committee as he weighs a follow-up race in 2022 against Republican incumbent Sen. Rand Paul.
Booker, a Black former state lawmaker, continued to tout themes of racial and economic justice, universal access to health care and environmental activism in taking a big step toward challenging Paul — a libertarian-leaning conservative and ally of former President Donald Trump.
"Kentuckians deserve a senator who will fight as hard for us as we fight for each other, and that's why I'm formally announcing an exploratory committee for U.S. Senate," Booker said in a news release. "We can, we will and we must build a future that works for all of us instead of just for a wealthy few."
Booker's announcement is a step short of officially launching his candidacy, but he's long been seen as a leading Democratic prospect for the 2022 Senate race in Kentucky. Forming an exploratory committee allows Booker to poll, travel the state, make phone calls and fundraise while testing the waters without officially declaring himself as a candidate.
Despite the strong name recognition Booker garnered in last year's Senate campaign, the former Louisville lawmaker would face an uphill fight against Paul in Republican-trending Kentucky — a state that has not elected a Democrat to the Senate since Wendell Ford in 1992.
Last year, Senate Republican leader Mitch McConnell trounced well-funded Democratic challenger Amy McGrath, who narrowly defeated Booker in the state's Democratic primary.
Responding to Booker's announcement Monday, Paul spokeswoman Kelsey Cooper said Kentuckians "know there is no greater champion for the values they hold dear than" Paul.
"And like President Trump stated in his recent endorsement, Dr. Paul has a proven record of fighting the liberal Washington agenda," she said.
Paul, an eye surgeon, will be seeking his third Senate term in 2022.
Booker seized momentum late in last year's Democratic Senate primary on the strength of a "Hood to the Holler" campaign that highlighted the common interests of Black Democrats in the cities and middle- and low-income white people in the mountains of eastern Kentucky — which he collectively has defined as "people in forgotten places."
He returned to those themes in his social media announcement Monday. Booker referenced the fatal shooting of Breonna Taylor in her home during a botched Louisville police raid last year.
"When our sister's door was kicked in, we marched," Booker said. "Those choices have already changed Kentucky forever."
Last week, Kentucky Gov. Andy Beshear signed a partial ban on no-knock warrants after months of demonstrations set off by Taylor's death. Taylor, a 26-year-old Louisville emergency medical technician studying to become a nurse, was shot multiple times in March 2020 after being roused from her bed by police. No drugs were found, and the warrant was later found to be flawed.
In his announcement, Booker also called for guaranteed, quality health care for everyone and a Green New Deal in coal-producing Kentucky to "ensure a healthy planet for generations to come."

Scenario Sketches
Sketch: The Digitalisation of Society
Digital technologies like artificial intelligence are already changing the way we live, work and think – and in the Shell Scenarios team we've explored how they could affect the world in the years ahead.
While it's impossible to know exactly what the world will look like twenty or thirty years from now, it's clear that digitalisation and associated technologies represent a significant 'fork in the road'.
Working with experts from all over the world, we've sketched out three distinct worlds illustrating three very different digital futures. In all these potential worlds there is a strong technical dimension and a strong human dimension.
The future is moulded by how these elements fit together and drive each other – how technology interacts with social, market and legal drivers and the actions of individuals, businesses and governments. In reality, elements of the three worlds are likely to co-exist – both across the world, and within individual communities and governments.
The truth is that drivers have already been unleashed which could shape the world in ways we cannot yet predict but which we can explore. Just as technologies like the printing press, telegraph and internal combustion engine changed the world, so new technologies coming onstream look set to do the same.
By stretching how we all think about the digital future, people can be in a better position to make resilient choices today for a world in which digital technology will be increasingly important.
The choices we all make, the way we work together or compete, and how we apply technology will shape the quality of all our lives. In this, the human dimension will undoubtedly be as important as code. You can explore the three worlds for yourself by following the links below.

DIGITAL ISLANDS
Digital Islands explores a world which fragments, in part, as a consequence of digitalisation and new technologies. It's a future in which populist political approaches are enabled by digital media, but techno-scepticism and resistance to new technology also become widespread. There is a resurgence in local and national identities as well as traditional values – and greater focus is put on face-to-face interaction and privacy. Algorithmically-derived insights may complement human decision-making but it's flesh-and-blood people who always make the final decisions. As a result of a backlash against globalisation, the world is once again made up of a kaleidoscope of different states – some successful, some not so – which struggle to see past their own interests and rarely cooperate for the 'common good'. It is a digital world primarily shaped by local, public actions and interventions by government.
OPEN PLATFORMS
The Open Platforms world explores the transition – albeit bumpy – to a world characterised by global digital connectivity and a renewal of internationalist values. It's a future where people increasingly delegate their day-to-day lives to algorithms and where, as social interaction becomes ever more digital and virtual, traditional social structures weaken. Technological advances lead to an economic boom – one where jobs are increasingly computational rather than manual – although the fruits of the boom aren't always perceived to be fairly distributed. Social tensions eventually lead to additional regulation, but the backbone of international digital architecture is already in place. Ultimately, the digital world is largely shaped in the coming years by business and public actions, with government influence in the digital arena only becoming prominent late in the day.
COMPLY AND PROSPER
Comply and Prosper is a world in which people choose stability and prosperity over privacy and freedom – where personal data is used to assess and determine individuals' abilities, health and education, and people are both rewarded and sanctioned for the way they live their lives. Despite the concerns of a vocal minority, 'digital autocracy' becomes accepted as an effective and orderly way of managing society. By the 2030s, government has aligned with major technology corporations in an increasing number of countries to take significant control of digital platforms – indeed, in extreme cases, participation in those platforms becomes mandatory. It's a world where people are a little richer and safer but where they've also consented to having less privacy and becoming more restricted. The digital world has been largely shaped by government and business actions.

Cause of Notre Dame Fire Remains a Mystery
Paris prosecutor's office says all possibilities still being explored
Despite authorities ruling that the Notre Dame fire was "accidental," it remains a mystery as to what started the blaze that engulfed and nearly destroyed the 850 year old gothic cathedral.
Despite police asserting that an electrical short circuit was the probable cause of the fire, Europe Echaffaudage said that the electricity supply to the two lifts on the site "was perfectly within specifications and well maintained".
The company added that workers had cut power to the elevators when they left the site at 5:20pm, an hour and a half before the fire started.
Electrical wiring that ran through the roof of the cathedral was also up to standards.
"Nothing was ever done without the authorisation of the state…There were no wires dangling, everything was properly installed," Notre-Dame spokesman Andre Finot said.
A scaffolding firm that worked on the site said that some its employees did defy rules by smoking, but asserted that it was impossible for a cigarette butt to burn oak beams.
"We condemn it. But the fire started inside the building… so for company Le Bras this is not a hypothesis, it was not a cigarette butt that set Notre-Dame de Paris on fire," Le Bras Frères spokesman Marc Eskenazi said.
The Paris prosecutor's office re-iterated that it had not ruled out any hypothesis about the origin of the fire and that all possibilities were still being explored.
Meanwhile, Notre Dame may be facing an even bigger threat than the fire itself – modernist architects who plan to rebuild the cathedral to reflect France's new "diversity".


Your Haier 15.0 cu. ft. Bottom Freezer has recessed handles to offer a clean and concealed look. Adjustable shelves provide your family with flexible storage solutions. Haier Appliances provide up-to-date technology and exceptional quality to simplify the way you live. With a timeless appearance, this family of appliances is ideal for your family.
Haier Fridge This is a nice small fridge. Fit my small apartment perfectly.
Quiet Fridge I had to get a new fridge for my new place. I read the reviews and watched some YT videos on this brand. What finally convinced me to make the purchase were the reviews on how quiet this model is. It is very quiet! I can barely hear it running but it keeps my food and beverages very cold. I like the three separated drawers in the bottom freezer. It qualifies for an Energy star rebate in my city. It might be a bit too small for some in a larger family. The price and the features make it a great choice if you have to downsize. I just hope it lasts as long as my old Kenmore (not quiet)bought in the late 90s & is still running.
Best Refrigerator We've Owned From the size, 15 cu ft. you would think there is not enough room. There are two of us and this refrigerator is designed right. The inside shelves are sized to hold milk or OJ cartons and there is lots of shelf space as well as meat and vegetable drawers. Freezer even has three sliding shelves with ample space. Good quality unit.
Super smaller fridge We love this refrigerator! It's super quiet, controls on the front and the lighting is beautiful.


With the growth of the downtown social center comes the popularity of Minneapolis warehouse lofts. Due to the growing middle-aged demographic population in the city center, these warehouse lofts are quickly becoming popular in the more affluent circles, making these lofts both classically artistic and thoroughly modern. Elegant, centrally located, and carefully designed for universal appeal, Minneapolis warehouse lofts continue to be a popular choice not only for the baby boomer generation, but also for a diverse demographic of homebuyers looking for the best in mid-west realty.
In a city continually rated as one of the best metropolises in the nation to live in, Minneapolis residents benefit from a wide-range of urban opportunities. Economically, this city boasts a low unemployment rate, a healthy business growth, and a variety of industries thriving locally. Minneapolis also promises a low crime rate, and clean and appealing city streets.
Minnesota residents also benefit from the fullest of the four seasons. Lakes are numerous, making water sports the leading recreational opportunities in the summer, while a strong winter gives the locals the chance to engage in the best of snow sports.
?	Also called a "hard" loft, these spaces are well known for their ceilings. At least 10 feet high, ceilings are continually being built higher and higher as loft residents state the importance of raised ceilings. Often these ceilings are left unfinished, complete with exposed pipes.
?	The layouts are left open and spacious. Similar to studio styled apartments, you will often find few divisions in these popular warehouse lofts. Rarely will you discover bedroom separations in a "hard" loft; instead, there will generally be a bathroom, kitchen, and large living space, left to be molded to fit the desires of the owner.
?	There are a few unique types of lofts, including multi-level ones, with an overlooking view of the first floor. "Soft" styled lofts are often freshly constructed and will have beautiful high ceilings, but lack the other qualities found in these trendy warehouse lofts.
With Minneapolis warehouse lofts quickly becoming the homes of the urban elite, the experts in Minneapolis realty advise jumping in, feet first, of course, to enjoy the luxurious life of loft ownership. Be prepared to pay anywhere from $200,000 to over $1 million, and understand that competition might be tough for the more affordable in the market. Also important to understand is the need for qualified representation when in comes to a more competitive seller's market. Check your options thoroughly, and remember that to find the home of a lifetime takes effort and knowledge of the local market.

Laws 1998, LB 922, § 7.


Hearings in the trial of Congolese opposition leader Jean-Pierre Bemba will resume on Monday, April 8, most likely with the testimony of 'Witness D04-21,' who will testify via video link from an undisclosed location. The trial at the International Criminal Court (ICC) has been on spring judicial recess since March 28.
On April 3, the three-judge panel of Sylvia Steiner, Joyce Aluoch, and Kuniko Ozaki granted the witness permission to give evidence remotely, despite objections by the prosecution, which wanted the witness to give live testimony in The Hague.
The defense said the witness was unable to travel to the seat of the court due to the illness of a person close to him. This required his ongoing presence in the country where the patient is.
The prosecution submitted that the defense was "routinely seeking the presentation of the evidence of its most important witnesses" through video link, even though it should be used on an exceptional basis. Furthermore, the prosecution stated that the defense request was unsubstantiated because it did not provide documents to support the reportedly poor health status of the unnamed individual.
According to the judges, the witness twice "firmly" refused to travel to The Hague when he was contacted by the Victims and Witnesses Unit on instructions of the chamber.
While granting the witness permission to testify via video link, the judges acknowledged the personal circumstances of the witness and his unwillingness to travel to The Hague. They noted that a witness could be allowed to give testimony by means of video due to their personal circumstances. Although personal circumstances had been interpreted as linked to the well-being of a witness, the chamber was not confined by the Rome Statute in considering other types of personal circumstances which might justify a witness testifying by means of audio or video technology.
Since the start of his defense case last August, sixteen witness have testified for Mr. Bemba, who denies that he failed to control his Movement for the Liberation of Congo troops who reportedly raped, killed, and pillaged during their 2002-2003 deployment in an armed conflict in the Central African Republic.
