Q: How NOHZ=ON affects do_timer() in Linux kernel? In a simple experiment I set NOHZ=OFF and used printk() to print how often the do_timer() function gets called. It gets called every 10 ms on my machine.
However if NOHZ=ON then there is a lot of jitter in the way do_timer() gets called. Most of the times it does get called every 10 ms but there are times when it completely misses the deadlines.
I have researched about both do_timer() and NOHZ. do_timer() is the function responsible for updating jiffies value and is also responsible for the round robin scheduling of the processes.
NOHZ feature switches off the hi-res timers on the system.
What I am unable to understand is how can hi-res timers affect the do_timer()? Even if hi-res hardware is in sleep state the persistent clock is more than capable to execute do_timer() every 10 ms. Secondly if do_timer() is not executing when it should, that means some processes are not getting their timeshare when they should ideally be getting it. A lot of googling does show that for many people many applications start working much better when NOHZ=OFF.
To make long story short, how does NOHZ=ON affect do_timer()?
Why does do_timer() miss its deadlines?

A: First lets understand what is a tickless kernel ( NOHZ=On or CONFIG_NO_HZ set ) and what was the motivation of introducing it into the Linux Kernel from 2.6.17
From http://www.lesswatts.org/projects/tickless/index.php,

Traditionally, the Linux kernel used a periodic timer for each CPU.
  This timer did a variety of things, such as process accounting,
  scheduler load balancing, and maintaining per-CPU timer events. Older
  Linux kernels used a timer with a frequency of 100Hz (100 timer events
  per second or one event every 10ms), while newer kernels use 250Hz
  (250 events per second or one event every 4ms) or 1000Hz (1000 events
  per second or one event every 1ms).
This periodic timer event is often called "the timer tick". The timer
  tick is simple in its design, but has a significant drawback: the
  timer tick happens periodically, irrespective of the processor state,
  whether it's idle or busy. If the processor is idle, it has to wake up
  from its power saving sleep state every 1, 4, or 10 milliseconds. This
  costs quite a bit of energy, consuming battery life in laptops and
  causing unnecessary power consumption in servers.
With "tickless idle", the Linux kernel has eliminated this periodic
  timer tick when the CPU is idle. This allows the CPU to remain in
  power saving states for a longer period of time, reducing the overall
  system power consumption.

So reducing power consumption was one of the main motivations of the tickless kernel. But as it goes, most of the times, Performance takes a hit with decreased power consumption. For desktop computers, performance is of utmost concern and hence you see that for most of them NOHZ=OFF works pretty well.
In Ingo Molnar's own words

The tickless kernel feature (CONFIG_NO_HZ) enables 'on-demand' timer
  interrupts: if there is no timer to be expired for say 1.5 seconds
  when the system goes idle, then the system will stay totally idle for
  1.5 seconds. This should bring cooler CPUs and power savings: on our (x86) testboxes we have measured the effective IRQ rate to go from HZ
  to 1-2 timer interrupts per second.

Now, lets try to answer your queries-

What I am unable to understand is how can hi-res timers affect the
  do_timer ?

If a system supports high-res timers, timer interrupts can occur more frequently than the usual 10ms on most systems. i.e these timers try to make the system more responsive by leveraging the system capabilities and by firing timer interrupts even faster, say every 100us. So with NOHZ option, these timers are cooled down and hence the lower execution of do_timer

Even if hi-res hardware is in sleep state the persistent clock is more
  than capable to execute do_timer every 10ms

Yes it is capable. But the intention of NOHZ is exactly the opposite. To prevent frequent timer interrupts!

Secondly if do_timer is not executing when it should that means some
  processes are not getting their timeshare when they should ideally be
  getting it

As caf noted in the comments, NOHZ does not cause processes to get scheduled less often, because it only kicks in when the CPU is idle - in other words, when no processes are schedulable. Only the process accounting stuff will be done at a delayed time.

Why does do_timer miss it's deadlines ?

As elaborated, it is the intended design of NOHZ
I suggest you go through the tick-sched.c kernel sources as a starting point. Search for CONFIG_NO_HZ and try understanding the new functionality added for the NOHZ feature
Here is one test performed to measure the Impact of a Tickless Kernel

Governor Andrew M. Cuomo today unveiled the 18th proposal of the 2018 State of the State: a multi-pronged agenda that targets sexual harassment in the workplace. Governor Cuomo will propose legislation to prevent public dollars from being used to settle sexual harassment claims against individuals, void forced arbitration policies in employee contracts, and mandate that any companies that do business with the state disclose the number of sexual harassment adjudications and nondisclosure agreements they have executed.
"2017 brought a long overdue reckoning where the secret and pervasive poison of workplace sexual harassment was exposed by brave women and men who said this ends now," Governor Cuomo said. "Our challenge in government is to turn society's revulsion into reform, and we in New York must seize the moment and lead the way. There must be zero tolerance for sexual harassment in any workplace, and we can and will end the secrecy and coercive practices that have enabled harassment for far too long."
Governor Cuomo will advance legislation to prevent taxpayer funds from being used for settlements against individuals relating to sexual assault and harassment and to ensure that individual harassers are held accountable.
To further ensure accountability, the Governor proposes a uniform code of sexual harassment policies binding on all branches of state and local government and an independent and anonymous whistleblower process to help individuals to communicate complaints across state and local government without fear of retribution or consequence. To help bring justice to victims of sexual harassment, Governor Cuomo also proposes legislation that would void forced arbitration policies or clauses in employee contracts that prevent sexual harassment cases from consideration in law enforcement investigation and court trials.
To combat the culture of silence that too often shields abusers from accountability, Governor Cuomo will take a series of actions to promote transparency while simultaneously protecting survivors' identity and privacy. Governor Cuomo will propose legislation to prohibit confidentiality agreements relating to sexual assault or harassment for all public entities and branches of government -- state and local -- unless it is the express preference of the victim. In addition, Governor Cuomo proposes mandatory annual reporting for any companies that do business with the State that will require disclosure of the number of sexual harassment violations and nondisclosure agreements executed by that company. These measures will ensure that all employees are provided with a safer work environment, to which they all should be entitled.

...E adesso andiamo a incominciare è il decimo album di Gabriella Ferri, il nono pubblicato dalla RCA.

Il disco
L'album prende il titolo dall'omonimo spettacolo televisivo in cinque puntate, diretto da Luigi Perelli, scritto dal regista in coppia con Roberto Lerici e condotto da Gigi Pistilli, andato in onda sulla seconda rete RAI dal 20 novembre al 12 dicembre del 1977.

La particolarità di quest'album è che è stato registrato insieme al gruppo dei Pandemonium, che suonano e cantano nei cori; in questo periodo fa parte del gruppo anche Amedeo Minghi. Prodotto e arrangiato da Piero Pintucci, fu registrato negli studi della RCA sulla via Tiburtina; il tecnico del suono dell'album è Ubaldo Consoli.

Il disco uscì come doppio LP, mentre in seguito fu ristampato come album singolo, contenente solamente una parte dei brani inclusi in origine, e con una diversa scaletta. La ristampa su cd è datata 2004; la copertina del compact riporta lo stesso errore di quella del vinile, dove il titolo della canzone brasiliana Oração de mãe meniniha fu trascritto come Oracao da mae meniniha.

La copertina è di Isio Saba.

home Entertainment Adele Flaunting Weight Loss Figure at Her Christmas Party with the Grinch and Santa Claus
Adele Flaunting Weight Loss Figure at Her Christmas Party with the Grinch and Santa Claus
Published Tue Dec 24 2019 By Sea
Picking up where she left. Adele dons her amazing weight loss look at the Christmas Party she recently hosted.
First, here is the entire intricate details of Adele's weight loss story, down to every last word she's said about her body.
Ever since her divorce in April from husband, now turned ex, Simon Konecki, we've noticed a huge change in her figure. While she throws out the idea that 'Gym sucks', the cardio training and Pilates she did since then, have really paid off.
Back in July, the 31-year-old was reported to have lost about 14 lbs. When she wore the black, off-the-shoulder gown at Drake's 33rd birthday party, people really started talking. In a positive way of course. Then at her own Christmas Party, her weight loss efforts showed real fruit as she mastered a black plunging, silk dress with photos of her with 'Grinch' and 'Santa Claus'.
Everyone is loving Adele's improving look.
Source: Adele, Instagram
"We both tried to ruin Christmas but then both our hearts grew!" the 'Hello' singer wrote as the caption of the Instagram post. "Thank you for coming to my party and making us feel like kids Grinch 💚 Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays everyone x".
The comment section of the said post is overwhelmed with praises of her stunning figure, but there were also the curious ones that wanted to know when she would be releasing new music again. Her last single was 'Send My Love (To Your New Lover)' from the album '25', which she premiered at the Billboard Music Awards 2016. Her weight loss figure was first prominent at that video premiere.
While many fans have been asking what the secret to her amazing reported 40-50 lbs (actually about 20 lbs) weight loss transformation is, she's not talked about it publicly to anyone. Nor is there any need to. But there are things that she said related to it (again the link given at the start of the article).
Adele thoroughly enjoyed Drake's birthday party.
However, there are concerns about her health. Fans are worrying the divorce was too much on her and might've have reduced her weight in the process. But ever since she came out for her first public appearance in a long while at Drake's party, she's been seen living it up and making the most out of life.
The split from her baby-daddy after seven years together means she might be releasing a new album again soon with similar inspiration like she had for every other album. Meanwhile, she's been romantically linked to rapper Skepta, but whatever the gossip-world says, she's finally heading towards a happier path.

Els heptagènids (Heptageniidae) són una família d'insectes pertanyent a l'ordre dels efemeròpters àmpliament distribuïda per tot el món.

Descripció
Les nimfes són aplanades (comprimides dorsiventralment) per arrapar-se a les pedres i evitar ser arrossegades pel corrent, tenen els ulls dirigits cap amunt, la càpsula del cap aplanada (la qual amaga completament les mandíbules quan es veu des de dalt) i, a banda i banda de l'abdomen, presenten unes petites làmines (anomenades traqueobrànquies), les quals sacsegen constantment, ja que els serveixen per respirar.

Les nimfes del gènere Rhithrogena presenten una falsa ventosa constituïda pel conjunt de les brànquies abdominals, la qual cosa és una adaptació morfològica a l'hàbitat de ràpids d'alta muntanya on viuen.

Dins les efímeres, els membres adults d'aquesta família poden assolir mides grans (de fins a 20 mm de llargària excloent-ne els cercs) i es distingeixen per la presència de dos parells de venes llargues intercalades a la regió cubital de l'ala anterior.

Juntament amb els cènids i els bètids, tenen tres cercs (cues) a l'extrem de l'abdomen i una fase adulta molt breu (molt efímera) i és tan curta que no arriben a alimentar-se (tenen la boca atrofiada) i únicament es reprodueixen per morir després.

Alimentació
Algunes ninfes són depredadores, però la gran majoria són herbívores brostejadores, les quals es nodreixen de les microalgues incrustants que troben a la superfície dels còdols i de les roques dels rius.

Hàbitat
El fet que mostrin preferència per viure en zones dominades per substrats de partícules gruixudes (com ara, roques i còdols) i tinguin la capacitat de suportar temperatures molt baixes (ja sigui a l'hivern o durant tot l'any), fa que aquestes siguin les efímeres dominants a totes les capçaleres i trams superiors de les conques hidrogràfiques. En realitat, hom pot definir un gradient de preferència per l'hàbitat que abasta des de les zones de capçalera (amb corrents forts) fins als trams mitjans amb corrents moderats o baixos durant els períodes d'estiatge. Segons aquest gradient, la seqüència dels gèneres seria: Rhithrogena > Epeorus > Ecdyonurus > Electrogena > Heptagenia. Els dos darrers gèneres seleccionen les parts dels còdols on el corrent és pràcticament nul, de manera que viuen a les zones laterals inferiors i als espais que resten sota les pedres.

Distribució geogràfica
Es troba a tots els continents, llevat de l'Antàrtida:, Nord-amèrica (amb 128 espècies), Centreamèrica (Costa Rica), Sud-amèrica (l'Equador i Xile), Europa (Irlanda, la Gran Bretanya, Bèlgica, els Països Baixos França, Luxemburg, Itàlia, Suïssa, Eslovènia, Alemanya, Noruega, Suècia, Finlàndia, Àustria, Txèquia, Grècia, Romania, Bulgària, Rússia i la península Ibèrica), Àfrica (Algèria, Etiòpia, Kenya, el Níger, Ghana, Malawi, Uganda, Moçambic, la Costa d'Ivori, Namíbia, Zimbàbue, Swazilàndia i Sud-àfrica), Àsia (Armènia, l'Azerbaidjan, el Tadjikistan, l'Uzbekistan, el Kazakhstan, l'Iran, la Xina, Mongòlia, la península de Corea, el Vietnam, Tailàndia, Malàisia, Borneo, les illes Filipines i el Japó) i Oceania (Nova Guinea, Austràlia i Nova Zelanda).

Presència als Països Catalans
Als rius catalans n'hi ha cinc gèneres i 22 espècies descrites però amb la possibilitat que encara n'hi hagi algunes més per descobrir, que principalment habiten als Pirineus. La màxima diversitat d'aquesta família es presenta en rius pirinencs, atès que el gènere Rhithrogena és el que compta amb un nombre més elevat d'espècies i fonamentalment habita en capçaleres d'alta muntanya car està adaptat a viure en zones de ràpids amb corrents forts.

 Afronurus
 Anepeorus

 Cinygmula
 Darthus
 Ecdyonurus

El seu paper com a bioindicadors
Per les seues preferències d'hàbitat, associades a requeriments elevats en oxigen dissolt, els heptagènids són considerats bioindicadors d'aigües netes. Tot i així, en zones molt fredes toleren contaminacions moderades d'origen orgànic si només hom té en compte el factor de la presència, ja que, altrament, també s'hi observa una dràstica reducció en la seua densitat poblacional.

LVMAC Tidbit — Want to Learn How to Drive and Get Paid?
While little mention of it has occurred locally, it is important for some veterans to know, as of 1 December 2014, the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA), under the authority from the Veterans Access, Choice, and Accountability Act of 2014 (aka VACAA or Public Law 113-146; and the same authority which introduced Veterans Choice Cards) has expanded eligibility for military veterans, male or female, in need of mental health care due to sexual assault or sexual harassment that occurred during their military service, now commonly referred to as military sexual trauma (MST). Dr. Adelman, the new Director of the Wilkes-Barre VA Medical Center Network, assures us the program is fully operating in his network.


China's top legislator Zhang Dejiang Sunday called for full confidence in the country's basic political system at the ongoing annual parliamentary session.
Zhang, chairman of the Standing Committee of the National People's Congress (NPC), delivered a report on the work of the Standing Committee at a plenary meeting attended by nearly 3,000 lawmakers at the Great Hall of the People in downtown Beijing.
"We should firmly maintain our confidence in the system of people's congresses, and advance it with the times," Zhang said.
The NPC, established 60 years ago, has been proven to be the fundamental political system that fits in China's reality, reflects the socialist nature of the state and guarantees the people's position as masters of the country, he said.
The year of 2013 was the first year of the 12th NPC's five-year term.
Building on the past achievements, the Standing Committee took new steps in the work of the NPC, and ensured that its work got off to a good start, Zhang said.
Members of the NPC Standing Committee described the legislature's work in the past year as "a good beginning" with improved efficiency and effects.
The Standing Committee has not only continued the good practices of its predecessor but also added new elements, said Bai Zhijian, a member of the NPC Standing Committee.
Over the past year, the NPC Standing Committee deliberated 15 bills and draft decisions on legal issues, of which 10 of them were passed; and revised 21 laws and enacted two, according to Zhang's report.
The top legislature introduced new methods to improve the quality of legislation.
The public used to be informed and asked for opinion about a bill once, usually after its first reading. Last year, the legislature started to add one round of opinion soliciting after the second reading of a bill.
In another new move last year, experts and parties of interest were invited to evaluate bills before they were put to vote.
"Through these methods, opinions from different sectors were pooled, helping lawmakers draft better motions," Bai said.
Supervising the governments, courts and procuratorates is another major task for the NPC.
Over the past year, the NPC Standing Committee listened to and deliberated 15 work reports of the State Council, the Supreme People's Court, and the Supreme People's Procuratorate, inspected the implementation of four laws, conducted three special inquiries and carried out five investigations on specific problems.
The top legislature has responded to social issues attracting great public attention.
In response to strong calls on curbing pollution, the top legislature read the draft amendment to the environmental protection law twice last year. Although the bill has gone through three readings, the NPC Standing Committee has yet to put it for a vote.
Facing criticism that NPC deputies only exercise their duty once a year at the annual session, the NPC Standing Committee tried new measures to help the deputies better fulfill their roles.
The Standing Committee divided NPC deputies into 260 groups so that deputies can better coordinate with each other and solicit public opinions in a more efficient way.
They organized deputies to join investigations and inspection fieldwork on specific issues, and an increasing number of NPC deputies were invited to observe the bi-monthly session of the NPC Standing Committee.
Xian Runxia, a village official and an NPC deputy from south China's Guangdong Province, observed a bi-monthly session of the NPC Standing Committee in February.
Most of the motions, discussed at the NPC Standing Committee meetings, were new laws and law amendments that seemed a bit distant from Xian's daily work in a small village. But Xian said she believed the participation is important.
"I consider it as a chance to learn as well as an opportunity to get my voice heard," she said.

With Northam's signature, Virginia will become first Southern state to abolish the death penalty
by: Dean Mirshahi

Oklahoma is planning to resume executing death-row inmates, five years after lethal injections were put on hold following a series of death-chamber mishaps, state officials announced Thursday, Feb. 13, 2020. (AP Photo/Sue Ogrocki, File)
RICHMOND, Va. (WRIC) — Virginia is on the verge of becoming the first Southern state to abolish the death penalty after lawmakers gave final approval Monday to two bills that would repeal the use of capital punishment, sending the legislation to the desk of Gov. Ralph Northam (D) for his signature.
The Virginia Senate passed a House bill that removes executions from the list of punishments in Virginia Code and makes life in prison without the possibility of parole the maximum sentence the commonwealth can implement.
The Senate voted 22-16 on Monday, with state Sen. Jill Holtzman Vogel (R-Fauquier) joining Democrats, to approve the measure. The House approved the state Senate's own version of the bill, 57-43, not long after senators voted. Two GOP members, Del. Jeff Campbell (R-Smyth County) and Del. Carrie Coyner (R-Chesterfield), voted in favor of the legislation.
Faith leaders are backing a bill to abolish the death penalty in Virginia
Northam endorsed the effort before the 2021 General Assembly session and seems poised to sign the legislation, calling the death penalty "inequitable, ineffective, and inhumane" in a joint statement with the state's Democratic leadership moments after the state Senate approved the House's bill.
"Over Virginia's long history, this Commonwealth has executed more people than any other state. And, like many other states, Virginia has come too close to executing an innocent person," Northam, House Speaker Eileen Filler-Corn (D-Fairfax) and Senate Majority Leader Dick Saslaw (D-Fairfax) wrote in the statement. "It's time we stop this machinery of death."
"Thanks to the vote of lawmakers in both chambers, Virginia will join 22 other states that have ended use of the death penalty. This is an important step forward in ensuring that our criminal justice system is fair and equitable to all," the statement continued.
Virginia Senate passes bill to abolish death penalty
The legislation would commute the death sentences of the two offenders currently on death row in Virginia to life without the possibility of parole. It redefines capital murder as aggravated murder and requires a judge to sentence every person convicted moving forward to life in prison.
According to the Death Penalty Information Center, Virginia conducted the nation's first execution and has executed more people, nearly 1,400, in its long history than any other state.
Since the U.S. Supreme Court let states resume the death penalty in 1976, Virginia has conducted the second most executions at 113, behind only Texas. Despite this, the last execution in Virginia was in 2017.
Twenty-five states still have the death penalty, 22 don't and three have moratoriums imposed by their governors, according to Death Penalty Information Center. Once Northam signs the legislation, Virginia would become the 23rd state to end the use of capital punishment.

RICHMOND, Va. (WRIC) -- Virginia's new Lieutenant Governor Winsome Earle-Sears presided over the Senate for the first time on Martin Luther King Jr. Day. Earle-Sears, who is the first woman of color to be sworn into a statewide office, made her debut as debates surrounding race and education are coming to a boil.
Lt. Governor Earle-Sears, who was also the first Black Republican, female veteran and legal immigrant woman to serve in the House of Delegates, tends not to dwell on the historic nature of her elections. However, she acknowledged its significance, especially for young women who may see her as a role model, in a one-on-one interview on Monday.

Virginia lawmakers propose banning public utilities from making political contributions
by Dean Mirshahi / Jan 17, 2022
RICHMOND, Va. (WRIC) -- A Democratic state senator and a Republican state delegate are proposing bills that would ban public utilities like Dominion Energy from giving political donations, an effort that has failed to get through the Virginia General Assembly for years.
Del. R. Lee Ware (R-Powhatan) and state Sen. Chap Petersen (D-Fairfax City) have each filed measures for the 2022 legislative session to prohibit public utility companies from making contributions to state candidates, political action committees (PACs) and campaign committees.

12 of the World's Greatest Roller Coasters
Start the Countdown
The Kingda Ka is one of the world's tallest and fastest roller coasters.
© Tim Larsen/Associated Press
In the 1880s on Coney Island -- a spit of Brooklyn beachfront -- the first American roller coasters were born … with some serious defects. One of the pioneer coasters, the Flip-Flap Railway, had the unfortunate problem of snapping riders' necks due to the extreme g-forces experienced when accelerating through the coaster's circular loop. This was obviously not ideal, and roller coasters had a ways to go before they became simultaneously safe and scream-inducing.
Thanks to engineering innovations and steel construction, coasters are now harmless and at speeds you can't fathom. Some of today's fastest coasters reach more than 100 miles per hour (160 kilometers per hour) -- much faster than you'd dare drive your car. And their drops feel more like prolonged freefalls -- one of the coasters on our list rockets down an 825-foot (251-meter) hill. Designers have infused creativity into their projects. One coaster blends music into the experience and another enables its passengers to "fly." But how? Let's take a look at today's greatest thrill rides.

by Thomas Wharton
Spellbinding, original, Salamander careens through a world of ideas and stories in which the transforming power of books, the thirst for knowledge, and the pursuit of immortality become erotic. It is also a universal story of love and obsession. Set in the eighteenth century, the narrative revolves around a world-spanning quest for the infinite book. Along the way the novel gathers stories that range from a Chinese tale of jealousy and lost love to the remarkable history of Alexandria's other great library and to epoch-making moments on the battlefields of colonial America. At the centre of the novel's unforgettable cast of characters is the London printer Nicholas Flood, a dedicated craftsman who is unprepared for all that awaits him when he accepts an unusual commission. Intricate, humane, infused with humour and pathos, Salamander is an exhilarating, elegantly crafted novel.
Thomas Wharton is an author and creative writing instructor at the University of Alberta. His first novel, Icefields (1995), won the Writers Guild of Alberta Best First Book Award, the Banff Book Festival Grand Prize and the Commonwealth Writer's Prize for Best First Book in the Canada/Caribbean division. His second novel, Salamander (2001), was shortlisted for the Governor-General's Literary Award and for the Roger's Fiction Prize. His latest book, The Logogryph (GP, 2004), was shortlisted for the IMPAC Dublin Award. Thomas Wharton lives in Edmonton with his wife and three children. He is currently at work on a new novel.

Short-listed, Governor General's Literary Awards - Fiction
"A remarkable, electrifying novel."
"A novel as sensual and fantastic as a fairy tale and as thoughtful and as beautifully written as anything we might expect from
Michael Ondaatje and Isabel Allende."
"Audacious. . . . Salamander is about making books; it's about why we read and what happens to the chain of our lives when we do.…"
–Quill and Quire (starred review)
"Witty, elliptical and provoking.…Delightful."
"A cabinet of wonders.…"
"A vigorous, imaginative novel about the power of reading and invention."
"Salamander is the sort of book every reader hopes to find, earnestly passes along to friends, and returns to in their dreams.…A visceral, compelling novel that will reward both serious inquiry and reading for pure pleasure.…A beautiful, emotionally resonant postmodern novel."
"This novel cannot help but connect deeply with its readers. . . ."
-Edmonton Journal
"It's all too rare that you pick up a book and find yourself inexorably swept into a different world, thoroughly absorbed in a realm far removed from the here and now.…Salamander captivates its readers, holds them spellbound, and persists in memory long after you've turned the final page.…Thoroughly absorbing.…"
"Wharton's novel is both spellbinding and encyclopedic.…It is a book lovers' book and a lovers' story."
–New Brunswick Reader
"Salamander is an extraordinary book of possibilities."
"[Wharton] cement[s] his reputation as one of Canada's most promising young writers."

News / Child Sexual Abuse
Police child sexual offender under investigation
Ahmed Aiham
USA, New York State, New York City, Crime scene barrier tape
Maldives Police Service, on Sunday, began investigations into a policeman reported for sexually abusing two minors.
According to a Police Spokesperson, an issue alleging sexual abuse to a minor was first reported on October 18, 2018. However, the case failed to take wind, as the allegations lacked adequate proof required to proceed further.
A second case involving minor was then reported on March 27, 2019.
Police revealed that the second child was abused prior to the accused's international departure, during a no-pay leave period.
As such, the man had already left the country when the second case was reported.
"The case is being investigated by the Family and Child Protection Department and the Professional Standard Command", said the spokesperson.
In addition, a 19-year-old was arrested on Sunday, following reports of sexually abusing two minors. The High Court has since added a remand period of 12 days for the young man.

Strand's grand potential on display this week
By Bill Forry
Dorchester Christmas Celebration: Steve Lipsitt and the Boston Classical Orchestra with the Pope John Paul II Catholic Academy strings ensemble. Photo by Bill Forry
Monday's family-friendly, Dorchester-themed Christmas celebration at the Strand Theatre hit all the right notes. The event was staged by the Boston Classical Orchestra, whose executive director, Sean Roberts, lives on Jones Hill and has taken a special interest in reviving the Columbia Road theatre.
His enthusiasm and vision for the Strand is precisely the brand of homegrown stewardship that will be needed to keep the city-owned theatre viable and vibrant in the years to come. The orchestra is mainly associated with Boston's Faneuil Hall, where it performs regular weekend concerts. Roberts wants the BCO to establish a residency at the Strand as well.
Monday's show drew about 450 people to the 7 p.m. performance— not a bad crowd considering the hour and the conflict of a marquee Monday Night Football game. But, the seeds of a larger success were clearly visible. The BCO wisely partnered with several outstanding Dorchester outfits— including the Pope John Paul II Academy's choir and string ensembles and the Boston City Singers. They enlisted the Dorchester Arts Collaborative, which arranged for cupcakes for the post-concert reception. This all-hands-on-deck approach is what's been missing from the Strand's management in recent years.
It will take a broad network of supporters— led by an active and imaginative community board— to steer the stately theatre into a new era of relevancy. We don't have that now and that's something that must change moving forward.
It's good to know that the city officials charged with improving the Strand's programming were quick to embrace this idea for Monday's show.
The BCO— under the direction of the energetic and warm Steve Lipsitt— delighted the audience with a just-right selection of holiday classics and pop tunes. By swinging the spotlight onto our neighborhood, and the Strand in particular, these fine musicians delivered an early Christmas present to a slice of this city that sorely needed a lift. Encore!

It seems I was premature in describing Rigoberto Uran's return to fine fettle. He's still not dead, but doctors are frowning at his charts. On stage nine, a familiar sequence of events played out. Fabio Aru attacked and his main rivals followed – except for Rigoberto Uran. The top riders opened a gap on the peloton; Uran lost more time.
The manner in which the stage was decided was familiar too. It seems to be inevitable in this race that someone from the break will manage to stay away and win each day. On this occasion, it was 37-year-old Paulo Tiralongo.
Tiralongo rides for Astana and this is yet another recurring theme. So far, the men in blue have been knocking seven shades of shite out of everyone else in this race. It may not be reflected at the very top of the leaderboard, but if you look at the top ten, it's fairly apparent. Aru may be second, but there are three Astana riders in the top five. Mikel Landa is fourth and Dario Cataldo is fifth.
Their dominance has been most obvious during the racing, however, where they have pretty much laid out towels at the front of the peloton to reserve their spots. Once there, they ride at an infernal pace. Everyone is suffering, but the big question is can it last? We're only just over a week into the race and there's plenty of tough stuff to come. Aru could find himself unusually lonely on third week mountain stages if everyone's spent.
Rest day first. Tuesday then brings a 200km flat stage.

Entwined Fates: Mercenary
Author: Trista Ann Michaels
Review by: Chris
* SPICY: Multiple Partners
* SPICY: BDSM
A stolen princess is to be auctioned off to the highest bidder. To the rescue is the mercenary hired by her father, Captain Lucien Amanpour. While he successfully outbids all others to get her, he's also interfered with a plan by his auction adversary, Milash, to distribute his version of justice on her father, the king, for the death of his son years ago. So begins a galactic game of cat and mouse, and hunter and prey.
Princess Kiley is smart enough to keep her mouth shut as to her identity when she is stolen for the slave market, knowing her father will find her. What she doesn't expect is to be bought by a hot mercenary who makes her mouth water, not to mention his sexy first officer Syeer.
The last thing Lucien wants is to be anywhere near a royal princess. They are all the same, and in his opinion that's not good. He's determined to do his job, get the princess home, and get out. That's until he meets her. It quickly becomes evident she's more than what he imagined, and he is torn for the first time about having a real relationship with a woman. But his past is a secret he won't reveal, and he can't marry a royal. Can he?
Lucien was just downright wicked to Kiley. He doesn't tell her she's being rescued and let's her think he's bought her to be his sex slave. And then he proceeds to show her what being a sex slave is all about. He and Syeer take her body to places she's never been, and she's torn between the pleasure they can give her, and getting home to her father.
Kiley was a great character to read. Struggling with her own wants and what her position as royalty demands, she fought her feelings, but the heart wants what it wants. She was a strong and feisty character, but smart as well. She knows she must wed a royal. How will she ever let Lucien go?
Always a little risqué, Trista Ann Michaels is quickly becoming one of my favorite authors with her emotional and evocative stories. Her latest story will draw you in and keep you reading to the last page.
Book Blurb for Entwined Fates: Mercenary
Sex slave auction hall, Veenori.
Kidnapped, humiliated and scared, Kiley plans to beg the mercenary who'd just bought her to take her home. Promising money beyond his wildest dreams, she haggles for her freedom. Unfortunately, her new master isn't interested in money. He has enough of his own. Instead, he plans to use her body as reimbursement.
Kiley doesn't know her father sent them, so Lucien and his first officer Syeer decide to use that to their advantage and teach the brat Kiley a lesson. With bondage and dominance, they hope to express just how dangerous the galaxy can be for a headstrong princess--especially when another mercenary is determined to use her in his vendetta against her father.
Publisher's Note: This book contains explicit sexual content, graphic language, and situations that some readers may find objectionable: Anal play/intercourse, domination, menage (m/f/m), spanking.

Weber Mania Hits KSC
Austin Weber Performs at the NOC

and Student Life

Remember that guy who went viral for flying to Japan and singing ABBA's "Mamma Mia" in a river?
Singer-songwriter Austin Weber took a pit stop during his "Weber Mania" tour to bring a groovy performance to The Night Owl Cafe (NOC). The event was held on Thursday, March 31 and was sponsored by WKNH. Weber was the first performer they have brought in since the start of the pandemic.
Weber performed some of his popular songs such as "I Don't Want to Miss You (Like I Do)", "Using the Internet for French" and "Goodbye".
Weber also interacted with his audience while on stage. Student Josh "King J" O'Neill was one of the students Weber joked around with in the crowd. "He was wicked chill which made talking to him so much easier," O'Neill said. "Talking to him felt like talking to any one of my other friends."
After the show, Weber even asked O'Neill to eat dinner with him and his band. "He was just super chill and friendly, and it wasn't like I was asking him questions, he was genuinely curious about me," O'Neill said.
O'Neill thought the concert was fun and officially became a fan. "I'm happy to say that I was very pleasantly surprised," O'Neill said. "The music was great, the energy of the room was great… ever since his concert, I've been listening to his music everyday."
WKNH President Anna Bertolino described the process of bringing "Weber Mania" to KSC. "Our previous event coordinator had reached out to his manager," Bertolino said. "[His manager] said they were interested in coming to perform here because they were going to be on tour anyways, that's what really started it."
The WKNH crew had a lot of preparation on their end leading up to the big night. "There was lots of communication between ourselves, Austin's manager, and [with] Trinity on the tech team at Keene State," Bertolino said.
Advertising wise, WKNH public relations Aran Testa created various posters that were hung all over campus. "He made those posters and had them the next day printed and ready to go, and put them up everywhere," Bertolino said.
Bertolino explained why she believed Weber was a great fit for Keene. "I think that he is someone that's used to performing in small settings," Bertolino said. "He's someone [familiar yet new]."
WKNH was super excited to finally bring live music to KSC again. "They used to bring in performances pretty often. [An event] we used to do was "Rock in the NOC", Bertolino said. "That was an open mic type thing where people could just perform, but that couldn't happen in the past few years because of COVID…so it [was] really exciting we got to do something."
Austin Weber was unavailable for an interview due to scheduling conflicts, along with WKNH event coordinator Ava Pittman.

Additional arable land to be added, if, etc.
If it should appear from actual survey or other satisfactory examination of said tract of land that it contains less than one hundred and sixty acres of tillable land for each person who, at the time, may be authorized to reside on it under the provisions of this treaty, and a very considerable number of such persons shall be disposed to commence cultivating the soil as farmers, the United States agrees to set apart, for the use of said Indians, as herein provided, such additional quantity of arable land, adjoining to said reservation, or as near to the same as it can be obtained, as may be required to provide the necessary amount.
Buildings on reservation.
The United States agrees, at its own proper expense, to construct at some place on the Missouri River, near the center of said reservation, where timber and water may be convenient, the following buildings, to wit: a warehouse, a store-room for the use of the agent in storing goods belonging to the Indians, to cost not less than twenty-five hundred dollars; an agency-building for the residence of the agent, to cost not exceeding three thousand dollars; a residence for the physician, to cost not more than three thousand dollars; and five other buildings, for a carpenter, farmer, blacksmith, miller, and engineer, each to cost not exceeding two thousand dollars; also a school-house or mission-building, so soon as a sufficient number of children can be induced by the agent to attend school, which shall not cost exceeding five thousand dollars.
The United States agrees further to cause to be erected on said reservation, near the other buildings herein authorized, a good steam circular-saw mill, with a grist-mill and shingle-machine attached to the same, to cost not exceeding eight thousand dollars.
Agent's residence, office, and duties.
The United States agrees that the agent for said Indians shall in the future make his home at the agency-building; that he shall reside among them, and keep an office open at all times for the purpose of prompt and diligent inquiry into such matters of complaint by and against the Indians as may be presented for investigation under the provisions of their treaty stipulations, as also for the faithful discharge of other duties enjoined on him by law. In all cases of depredation on person or property he shall cause the evidence to be taken in writing and forwarded, together with his findings, to the Commissioner of Indian Affairs, whose decision, subject to the revision of the Secretary of the Interior, shall be binding on the parties to this treaty.
Heads of families may select lands for farming.
If any individual belonging to said tribes of Indians, or legally incorporated with them, being the head of a family, shall desire to commence farming, he shall have the privilege to select, in the presence and with the assistance of the agent then in charge, a tract of land within said reservation, not exceeding three hundred and twenty acres in extent, which tract, when so selected, certified, and recorded in the "land-book," as herein directed, shall cease to be held in common, but the same may be occupied and held in the exclusive possession of the person selecting it, and of his family, so long as he or they may continue to cultivate it.
Others may select land for cultivation.
Any person over eighteen years of age, not being the head of a family, may in like manner select and cause to be certified to him or her, for purposes of cultivation, a quantity of land not exceeding eighty acres in extent, and thereupon be entitled to the exclusive possession of the same as above directed.
For each tract of land so selected a certificate, containing a description thereof and the name of the person selecting it, with a certificate endorsed thereon that the same has been recorded, shall be delivered to the party entitled to it, by the agent, after the same shall have been recorded by him in a book to be kept in his office, subject to inspection, which said book shall be known as the "Sioux Land-Book."
Surveys.
Alienation and descent of property.
Certain Indians may receive patents for 160 acres of land.
Such Indians receiving patents to become citizens of the United States.
The President may, at any time, order a survey of the reservation, and, when so surveyed, Congress shall provide for protecting the rights of said settlers in their improvements, and may fix the character of the title held by each. The United States may pass such laws on the subject of alienation and descent of property between the Indians and their descendants as may be thought proper. And it is further stipulated that any male Indians, over eighteen years of age, of any band or tribe that is or shall hereafter become a party to this treaty, who now is or who shall hereafter become a resident or occupant of any reservation or Territory not included in the tract of country designated and described in this treaty for the permanent home of the Indians, which is not mineral land, nor reserved by the United States for special purposes other than Indian occupation, and who shall have made improvements thereon of the value of two hundred dollars or more, and continuously occupied the same as a homestead for the term of three years, shall be entitled to receive from the United States a patent for one hundred and sixty acres of land including his said improvements, the same to be in the form of the legal subdivisions of the surveys of the public lands. Upon application in writing, sustained by the proof of two disinterested witnesses, made to the register of the local land-office when the land sought to be entered is within a land district, and when the tract sought to be entered is not in any land district, then upon said application and proof being made to the Commissioner of the General Land-Office, and the right of such Indian or Indians to enter such tract or tracts of land shall accrue and be perfect from the date of his first improvements thereon, and shall continue as long as he continues his residence and improvements, and no longer. And any Indian or Indians receiving a patent for land under the foregoing provisions, shall thereby and from thenceforth become and be a citizen of the United States, and be entitled to all the privileges and immunities of such citizens, and shall, at the same time, retain all his rights to benefits accruing to Indians under this treaty.
Children to attend school.
Schoolhouses and teachers.
In order to insure the civilization of the Indians entering into this treaty, the necessity of education is admitted, especially of such of them as are or may be settled on said agricultural reservations, and they therefore pledge themselves to compel their children, male and female, between the ages of six and sixteen years, to attend school; and it is hereby made the duty of the agent for said Indians to see that this stipulation is strictly complied with; and the United States agrees that for every thirty children between said ages who can be induced or compelled to attend school, a house shall be provided and a teacher competent to teach the elementary branches of an English education shall be furnished, who will reside among said Indians, and faithfully discharge his or her duties as a teacher. The provisions of this article to continue for not less than twenty years.
Seeds and agricultural implements.
When the head of a family or lodge shall have selected lands and received his certificate as above directed, and the agent shall be satisfied that he intends in good faith to commence cultivating the soil for a living, he shall be entitled to receive seeds and agricultural implements for the first year, not exceeding in value one hundred dollars, and for each succeeding year he shall continue to farm, for a period of three years more, he shall be entitled to receive seeds and implements as aforesaid, not exceeding in value twenty-five dollars.
Instructions in farming.
Second blacksmith.
And it is further stipulated that such persons as commence farming shall receive instruction from the farmer herein provided for, and whenever more than one hundred persons shall enter upon the cultivation of the soil, a second blacksmith shall be provided, with such iron, steel, and other material as may be needed.
Physician, farmer, etc., may be withdrawn.
Additional appropriation in such cases.
At any time after ten years from the making of this treaty, the United States shall have the privilege of withdrawing the physician, farmer, blacksmith, carpenter, engineer, and miller herein provided for, but in case of such withdrawal, an additional sum thereafter of ten thousand dollars per annum shall be devoted to the education of said Indians, and the Commissioner of Indian Affairs shall, upon careful inquiry into their condition, make such rules and regulations for the expenditure of said sum as will best promote the educational and moral improvement of said tribes.
Delivery of goods in lieu of money or other annuities.
In lieu of all sums of money or other annuities provided to be paid to the Indians herein named, under any treaty or treaties heretofore made, the United States agrees to deliver at the agency-house on the reservation herein named, on or before the first day of August of each year, for thirty years, the following articles, to wit:
For each male person over fourteen years of age, a suit of good substantial woolen clothing, consisting of coat, pantaloons, flannel shirt, hat, and a pair of home-made socks.
For each female over twelve years of age, a flannel skirt, or the goods necessary to make it, a pair of woolen hose, twelve yards of calico, and twelve yards of cotton domestics.
For the boys and girls under the ages named, such flannel and cotton goods as may be needed to make each a suit as aforesaid, together with a pair of woolen hose for each.
Census.
And in order that the Commissioner of Indian Affairs may be able to estimate properly for the articles herein named, it shall be the duty of the agent each year to forward to him a full and exact census of the Indians, on which the estimate from year to year can be based.
Other necessary articles.
Appropriation to continue for thirty years.
Army officer to attend the delivery.
Meat and flour.
Cows and oxen.
And in addition to the clothing herein named, the sum of ten dollars for each person entitled to the beneficial effects of this treaty shall be annually appropriated for a period of thirty years, while such persons roam and hunt, and twenty dollars for each person who engages in farming, to be used by the Secretary of the Interior in the purchase of such articles as from time to time the condition and necessities of the Indians may indicate to be proper. And if within the thirty years, at any time, it shall appear that the amount of money needed for clothing under this article can be appropriated to better uses for the Indians named herein, Congress may, by law, change the appropriation to other purposes; but in no event shall the amount of this appropriation be withdrawn or discontinued for the period named. And the President shall annually detail an officer of the Army to be present and attest the delivery of all the goods herein named to the Indians, and he shall inspect and report on the quantity and quality of the goods and the manner of their delivery. And it is hereby expressly stipulated that each Indian over the age of four years, who shall have removed to and settled permanently upon said reservation and complied with the stipulations of this treaty, shall be entitled to receive from the United States, for the period of four years after he shall have settled upon said reservation, one pound of meat and one pound of flour per day, provided the Indians cannot furnish their own subsistence at an earlier date. And it is further stipulated that the United States will furnish and deliver to each lodge of Indians or family of persons legally incorporated with them, who shall remove to the reservation herein described and commence farming, one good American cow, and one good well-broken pair of American oxen within sixty days after such lodge or family shall have so settled up on said reservation.
Right to occupy territory outside of the reservation surrendered.
Right to hunt reserved.
In consideration of the advantages and benefits conferred by this treaty, and the many pledges of friendship by the United States, the tribes who are parties to this agreement hereby stipulate that they will relinquish all right to occupy permanently the territory outside their reservation as herein defined, but yet reserve the right to hunt on any lands north of North Platte, and on the Republican Fork of the Smoky Hill River, so long as the buffalo may range thereon in such numbers as to justify the chase. And they, the said Indians, further expressly agree:
Agreements as to railroads.
1st. That they will withdraw all opposition to the construction of the railroads now being built on the plains.
2d. That they will permit the peaceful construction of any railroad not passing over their reservation as herein defined.

They withdraw all pretence of opposition to the construction of the railroad now being built along the Platte River and westward to the Pacific Ocean, and they will not in future object to the construction of railroads, wagon-roads, mail-stations, or other works of utility or necessity, which may be ordered or permitted by the laws of the United States. But should such roads or other works be constructed on the lands of their reservation, the Government will pay the tribe whatever amount of damage may be assessed by three disinterested commissioners to be appointed by the President for that purpose, one of said commissioners to be a chief or head-man of the tribe.
Military posts and roads.
7th. They agree to withdraw all opposition to the military posts or roads now established south of the North Platte River, or that may be established, not in violation of treaties heretofore made or hereafter to be made with any of the Indian tribes.
No treaty for cession of reservation to be valid unless, etc.
No treaty for the cession of any portion or part of the reservation herein described which may be held in common shall be of any validity or force as against the said Indians, unless executed and signed by at least three-fourths of all the adult male Indians, occupying or interested in the same; and no cession by the tribe shall be understood or construed in such manner as to deprive, without his consent, any individual member of the tribe of his rights to any tract of land selected by him, as provided in article 6 of this treaty.
United States to furnish physician, teachers, etc.
The United States hereby agrees to furnish annually to the Indians the physician, teacher, carpenter, miller, engineer, farmer, and blacksmiths as herein contemplated, and that such appropriations shall be made from time to time, on the estimates of the Secretary of the Interior, as will be sufficient to employ such persons.
Presents for crops.
It is agreed that the sum of five hundred dollars annually, for three years from date, shall be expended in presents to the ten persons of said tribe who in the judgment of the agent may grow the most valuable crops for the respective year.
Reservation to be permanent home of tribes.
The Indians herein named agree that when the agency-house or other buildings shall be constructed on the reservation named, they will regard said reservation their permanent home, and they will make no permanent settlement elsewhere; but they shall have the right, subject to the conditions and modifications of this treaty, to hunt, as stipulated in Article 11 hereof.
Unceded Indian territory.
Not to be occupied by whites, etc.
The United States hereby agrees and stipulates that the country north of the North Platte River and east of the summits of the Big Horn Mountains shall be held and considered to be unceded Indian territory, and also stipulates and agrees that no white person or persons shall be permitted to settle upon or occupy any portion of the same; or without the consent of the Indians first had and obtained, to pass through the same; and it is further agreed by the United States that within ninety days after the conclusion of peace with all the bands of the Sioux Nation, the military posts now established in the territory in this article named shall be abandoned, and that the road leading to them and by them to the settlements in the Territory of Montana shall be closed.
Effect of this treaty upon former treaties.
It is hereby expressly understood and agreed by and between the respective parties to this treaty that the execution of this treaty and its ratification by the United States Senate shall have the effect, and shall be construed as abrogating and annulling all treaties and agreements heretofore entered into between the respective parties hereto, so far as such treaties and agreements obligate the United States to furnish and provide money, clothing, or other articles of property to such Indians and bands of Indians as become parties to this treaty, but no further.
In testimony of all which, we, the said commissioners, and we, the chiefs and headmen of the Brulé band of the Sioux nation, have hereunto set our hands and seals at Fort Laramie, Dakota Territory, this twenty-ninth day of April, in the year one thousand eight hundred and sixty-eight.
