Oh to be at Lancia in the early 1950s. I'm sure it wasn't all wonderful, but to be surrounded by so many Aurelias. The curves, the finish, the colors, and the sense that this was how things could be.
Around 1980, I was in Los Angeles, and visited a grey-market importing operation for Lamborghinis. It was run by Jas Rarewala, an engineer, who was also interested in Stratos. We had a good time and he took me for a ride in a Countach, managing only 135mph on the expressway.
What does this have to do with Aurelias? Not much, except I remember being in a storage area surrounded by 4 Lamborghinis. It was an extraordinary experience, as you could come around to "believe" that these cars were right, and the rest of everything else wasn't. It was a new way to see the world. When you see them in numbers, you begin to believe. Quite amazing.
So the image of fifty or more Aurelias, all together, reminds one of how the world could/should have been - dedicated to quality, finesse, and elegance.

Rutgers glider added to the collections of the National Museum of Natural History
In Marine Science, Research News, Science & Nature / 3 December 2010

In 2009, Rutgers University Oceanographer Scott Glenn and his students successfully steered an unmanned robotic glider across the Atlantic Ocean in 221 days from Tuckerton, N.J. to Baiona, Spain. During its trip instruments aboard the yellow 7-foot, battery powered glider recorded data on the currents, salinity and temperature of the ocean's waters. The Rutgers had modified the coastal glider so it could make the long, trans-Atlantic trip.
The 221-day path taken by Scarlet Knight
The Scarlet Knight, as the glider is called, made nautical history as the first submersible glider to successfully cross the Atlantic Ocean. With no propellers these gliders move forward ocean by rising and falling with changes in their buyoancy. Every eight hours the glider surfaced to check its GPS position and send back data. E-mails from technicians in a control room at Rutgers University guided the craft toward Spain.
On Thursday, Dec. 9, the submersible was added to the collections of the Smithsonian's National Museum of Natural History and is on exhibit in the museum's Ocean Hall. The glider's successful journey illustrates the promise for these gliders as tools for long-term scientific research and exploration of the oceans of the world.

Halo: The Master Chief Collection Discussion
By CyReN, January 29, 2014 in Halo General Discussion
Bxrz
Is there a way I don't get banned when I quit the build in the pregame?
All the casuals wanting reach to be remade are shooting themselves in the foot. Right now Reach has 100% of the population on the 360 servers. As soon as it's released on the xbone remastered and its not compatible, it gets severely hurt. Reach is played so much because it is on the 360 and the 360 had so many consoles sold. the 360 crowd wont move over, so their game is hurt. The new people won't be playing reach after a year because if they would, they would already be playing it on the 360/backwards compatibility. So it cuts the population pool in half for both releases for no reason other than "muh 60 fps." - We already saw this happen with halo 3. While halo 3 was less popular than halo reach 2011-2014 (pre mcc hype), it still functioned. you could get games in skirmish, rumble, btb, social slayer, action sack, multi team, team slayer, team doubles, lone wolves, mlg. That's all you needed. yeah swat was dead but so what. now its just lone wolves, team slayer, 50high dubs, social slayer. no btb. no multi team. no mlg. And remember that halo 3 doesnt even work as well on the xbone and it's in this state.
That seems like a very bad idea for the reach community. I hope that doesnt happen to them
It depends on if they do a good job on remastering Reach or not. Like, if it's 1080p 60 FPS, dedicated servers for all games, includes all DLC maps into matchmaking rotation, and make the game TU across the board, then it will be fucking awesome and many people would play it. And if they nerf jetpack, or just remove it entirely, it will be even more awesome. Of course, if they don't do those things, then it will suck like everything else 343 has done and there will be low population, just like every other 343 made Halo.
H3 can fuck off and go play BC if they wanna cry about shit. Your fucking game already exists. Go play it.
People want to play Halo 3 in 1080p 60 FPS on dedicated servers. It's a much better experience than playing the stale 2007 version with terrible lag.

The planned selection of playlists is actually pretty decent, at least as a starting point. My thoughts:
I'm a little surprised that CE got 3 playlists, I would have expected just the obvious 2v2 and then either BTB/4v4. I suspect one might go, but I guess we'll see what the population looks like.
Remove TS from H2, add Dubs. H2 Hardcore wasn't that far from default anyway. If I were them, I'd test out a dedicated FFA playlist to see if it can maintain a population.
H3 looks good. Once again, I suspect you could add Dubs with little consequence to the population.
Radical idea for H2A: Remove TS, add Action Sack. H2A's real value is in its Forge scripts and minigames. Make it the minigame/infection hub.
It really warms my heart to see H4 get relegated to a single playlist. BTB was H4's biggest strength, so having a single BTB playlist is likely the best move in terms of actually catering to the population and having H4 in MM at all.
My only problem with the playlists is having ranked team slayer in H2/H3. Nobody cares that you have a 50 in slayer and 99.9% of people searching team slayer in MCC right now don't care about a rank and don't want to get sweaty. They just want to sit back and enjoy a fun game of casual Halo where they don't have to worry how well they perform. Keep ranked to hardcore and FFA.
This. A social/rank split is the only good reason for keeping TS in H2.
SatansReverence
So is there any sort of patch list for this trainwreck yet?
Hard Way
Neat. People want to play H1 and H2 at all. Obviously H3 should be well represented, but when their glut of playlists they demand (that ALL already exist on Xbox One) encroaches on 1 and 2, it's fucking annoying.
Jake Teh Nub
It's still the same sluggish, inconsistent game and nothing will change that.
Antidope
Making less H3 playlists wouldn't make more people play H1 or H2
From what I hear, Halo 3 feels incredible now. Looking forward to my Insider invite so I can make up my own conclusion though.
That's not my point. I know they're allergic to learning a new game. I've had 4 years to learn that lesson. My point is that they are taking up a spot that could give more variety for the games I can ONLY play on MCC (on Xbox). For example, I might not get H2 FFA because H3 kids cried about not getting doubles, even though they could totally just go fucking play doubles, right now.
If you don't think H3 had a predatory impact on the population of H1 and 2 in MCC up to this point, you're high. Try to think objectively about this.
Supermelee24
muh 60fps are you fucking ******** and not realize no one can play 30fps like they used to anymore. Fuck the 360 Mexicans who won't get an Xbox one. I want reach on 60fps, 30fps does not feel good especially when you've playing games on pc at 144 hz, I'm sorry but when idiots like YOU don't know the difference between 60 to 30 it's beyond ridiculous. It's clear you don't know the difference or you wouldn't of said that.
-2 votes ha! Two idiots who believe the difference is minuscule.
Dude provides a whole paragraph of well-explained reasons, and your retort is exactly what he described in his post. It's like you didn't even read the rest of the post. I promise you, he knows the difference in feel between 30 and 60 fps. What he explained in his post, and what you failed to even address, is that the upgrade in fps isn't worth the game cannibalizing itself, as we've already seen. The racism in your post was just the cherry on the ignorance sundae.
You have no room to be calling anyone here an idiot, especially Riddler.
oh I read the post but I don't believe in his words that's the difference and I'll call someone who thinks 60fps isn't worth something an idiot. And what I said wasnt the n word but the r word
And it's mostly Mexicans on reach 360 it's nit racist it's the damnee truth and the only reason anyone is on it is because it's not remastered on the xbone
RC_5213
Personally speaking, Flight Halo 3's aiming is even worse than it was on 360/original MCC. I was playing on 2 (3 sens in H3) and still didn't feel comfortable. I feel like I have better shot in R6 Seige MP and there's literally no AA there. Shit, I have a better shot playing PC Halo CE on a 360 pad.
I'm honestly really disappointed we can't play a CE/H2 playlist, but I'll take it given I'll never have to play ARs on High Ground ever again.
Resident Speed Runner
60FPS may not be as important to him. It's not that important to me, it's obviously important to you.
And just saying there's Mexican people playing Reach isn't racist. Complaining about foreign hosts isn't racist. But saying saying something derogatory about them as a people, not playing on their host but about them, that's racist and that's what you did with your original comment.
I'll fix your comment to Riddler for you:
"I disagree, I would rather play 60 FPS on Reach; also by bringing it to MCC, I feel I would get less foreign hosts due to the Xbox One being more popular where I live. I'm willing to have the community divide for these two reasons."
It's not racist, it's not ableist, and it still gets your point across that you value 60 FPS and hopefully less foreign hosts. You can still throw your own personality in there, you don't have to make it as dry as I did, but I hope you can catch what I'm trying to do.
@@Supermelee24 Oh GAWD here we go again... "nobody can play like that anymore herp de derp you're all old losers". Reach doesn't deserve the remaster treatment anyway unless they v7 the entire thing, which would never happen. so fuck that game. And we know know what work you used, he was calling you racist for being disparaging against an entire country of people. I think you need to go see a proctologist man, they could help you out....
Personally speaking, Flight Halo 3's aiming is even worse than it was on 360/original MCC.
I would be shocked if they didn't fix it by the time the update comes out. Original MCC H3 aim is really bad too. I would be wind milling on 2 sensitivity. They need to recalibrate it entirely for the Xbox One controller to match it as closely as they can to the original 360 version(which was perfect).
CIutchy
Fake 50
A new update came out the other day and i feel like the aiming got a little better.
Ethereal Nights
I wouldn't say it feels incredible because Halo 3 has never felt incredible. Lol. But it does feel better than I'm used to.
Well thank you, though having read through supermelee's post, he super anti-dmr and very pro halo3. So i already know he won't play halo reach regardless if its 144 fps. He's just a troll and will argue anything. I don't think he ever left the edgy teenager phase.
I'll gladly take reach over halo 3 if it's v7 or TU. Personally I like the dmr more than the br. I'm not a troll actually it's jist everyone here is die hard h1 people and I'm not so I'my opinion on the game is different.
lol fuck that. I don't like Mexican host or any other foreign host. It's jist the fact when I go on their it's Mexican host or fucking British cunt host.
bruh your ass probably hasn't even played any shooter on 144fps
theslatcher
I bet he has only ever played a shooter at 143fps max, that scrub.


Re: What's your favorite Beer?
Oh man Sage, love myself some Bissell Bros...been a while, great stuff.
How was it? Never seen a Japanese stout before.
Good actually, light bodied for a stout, low carbonation, just a touch bitter, very chocolatey. Could easily have drank one or two more. Wouldn't stand up next to a chewy flavor-smash stout, but a very good choice with sushi. Mostly chose it because I like dark beer and likewise had never seen a Japanese stout before. Glad I did.
Thanks for the reply. Definitely keep my eye out for it.
Not bad. I prefer their Juicy Banger "single" IPA, but it is impressive that this 9%+ ABV beer as smooth as it is and malt is represented.
Beer festival yesterday. This Cherry barrel aged sour from Stamm Brewing in Russia was the stand out for me. 80 plus breweries. Also got to try FO from Bottle Logic for the first time.
Don't sleep on this one. Easy to find and 12$ for a six pack of 16oz. cans.
Ok Eli, what is your favorite beer. I'll make it easier. Your "desert island" 3. Because it's too hard to pick one I think.
It's not possible to pick three. I might do a top twenty, maybe, but not a top three.
PS: I'm not doing a top twenty.


The Directors Guild of America is celebrating its 80th anniversary this year and to help celebrate the occasion they've taken it upon themselves to pick the 80 greatest directorial achievements from the past 80 years of film. The resulting list is based on poll results submitted by over 2000 members and also includes only movies directed by members of the guild. While many of the films mentioned are the usual suspects seen on all-time best of lists, it is interesting that The Godfather beat out Citizen Kane for the top spot, despite the latter seeming like an obvious winner from a directorial point of view. There are also a few fairly recent entries including Birdman, Avatar, There Will Be Blood and The Hurt Locker. Do you agree with these choices? Check out the full list after the jump and see what you think.
Hmmm.. The Usual Suspects? Use to be one of my favorites as a teen. Liked the swearing and the twist. Haven't watched it in probably 10+ years. Need to see if it hold up.
2 Godfathers in the top 10 and we still have no Godfather premium? How many Carpenter films are in this list? ZERO.


For the past 27 years, Sarasota in Defense of Animals (SDA) has taken in (rescued) hundreds of homeless animals, not only dogs and cats, but rabbits, goats, geese, ducks, horses, chickens, pot-bellied pigs and sheep and provided lifetime sanctuary care for them. 99% of the rescued animals were on "death row" and were scheduled to be put to death because they were deemed unadoptable by animal shelters due to behavioral or health issues. No animals are taken that stand a chance of being adopted into a normal family home environment.
At present the SDA sanctuary has 209 animals and because of financial hardships, we are NOT taking any additional animals at the present time. We have a very lean budget of $10,000 per month that feeds, covers medical expenses and pays part time labor for daily cleaning and individual animal care.
For the past 27 years SDA has had several fund-raising events during the year to cover costs to keep our doors open and continue to provide exceptional care for the health and well-being of the resident animals. This county has 79 animal welfare agencies all vying for the same donation dollars which has made it extremely difficult to raise the funds needed to run the sanctuary.
I donate the use of my personally owned 10-acre rural property that is used for the sanctuary and I supervise the entire operation at NO SALARY. Neither do we pay professional fund-raisers nor other professional services. All donations are for direct animal care.
The summer months, especially August, are very difficult to raise funds and we will be in desperate need of funding for August and hopefully, we will be able to raise money for the remainder of the year. It would be the ultimate betrayal to these 200+ animals to have to close this sanctuary because there is no money to care for them. I shudder to think of what would happen to them.
Not only is this my highest priority to provide food and care for the precious animal residents but their lives are dependent on those of us who care enough to help them in their time of crucial need.
My heartfelt thanks to those compassionate people who will save the lives of over 200 animals in need.
I will donate a weeks vacation at my beach house. Can you auction it off ?
I donated for my friend Karen Williams Birthday.
Sorry about your loss in the storm.
On behalf of the team at NUOVO we support SDA!

Man Shot As Hired Gunmen Attack Youths In Defiance Of Dangote Closure Directive – Kogi Govt. Alleges
Comfort Olusesi
Some hired gunmen have shot one of the youngsters who had gathered to support the sealing of the Dangote Cement Company in an effort to forcibly halt the implementation of the resolution as ordered by the House of Assembly.
Revealing this in a statement on Wednesday, the Kogi State Government, through its state's Commissioner for Information, Kingsley Fanwo disclosed that the unidentified victim was receiving treatment at a government hospital in Lokoja.
The Kogi State House of Assembly's move to seal the Dangote Cement Company due to a dispute over ownership between the government and the Dangote Group, received the full backing of the state administration.
According to Fanwo, today's operation at Obajana has further opened the eyes of the State Government to the criminal hub that Obajana is fast becoming "with the level of arms and ammunition deployed by hoodlums hired to stop the sealing of the company as directed by the State House of Assembly."
The statement read, "The Kogi State Government wishes to express total support for the decision of the Kogi State House of Assembly to seal the Dangote Cement Company over ownership tussle between the State Government and the Dangote Group.
"The successful sealing of the Factory is a welcome development to enable all parties advance providing answers to the various unanswered questions surrounding the ownership of the Company.
"Today's operation at Obajana has further opened the eyes of the State Government to the criminal hub that Obajana is fast becoming with the level of arms and ammunition deployed by hoodlums hired to stop the sealing of the company as directed by the State House of Assembly.
"We thank the enthusiastic young men and women who came out in their hundreds to support the sealing of the Company as well as our gallant security agents for repelling the criminals that were hired to stop the implementation of a lawful resolution by the law making body of the state.
"It is unfortunate that one of the youth supporting the sealing of the company in solidarity with the House of Assembly resolution was shot by the hired gunmen of the capitalist and he is currently receiving treatment at a government hospital in Lokoja.
"It is our responsibility as a government to protect the interest of our people and we will stop at nothing to ensure Kogi's resources work for Kogi people."
"The Executive Governor of Kogi State, His Excellency Alh Yahaya Bello has directed security agencies to fish out those who shot the innocent youth at Obajana and bring them to justice.
"We also call on our people in Obajana not to take the laws into their hands. They should remain calm and be law abiding as Government will always protect the interest of the state," he advised.

On Thursday I went out to visit Forrester High School on the west side of Edinburgh. I enjoyed 8 years working at Forrester, initially as a computing teacher, but also for 5 years as head of department and ICT coordinator for the school. I left in December 2000 to set up Learning Curve, so it was great to get the chance to go back and catch up with a few ex-colleagues.
The reason for my visit was to involve the school in a new project we are working on. The Learning Pod: Learning will be a collection of 14 short films and animations designed to help young people understand the principals of learning. The first film in the series, Study Skills, has already been completed.
The film in which Forrester are going to be involved is called Exam Technique and it tells the story of Laura, a 16 year old pupil. The short drama, set on the day Laura's first exam, will give good practice and advice in relation to preparing for and sitting an exam.
Auditions will be later this month, with filming to take place on location at the school in June.

Did You Know Water Damage Can Be the Result of a Fire?
If you're worried your home could suffer fire damage in Mount Hermon,NJ, you may already have a fire safety plan in place. But did you know that a fire can also lead to damage from water as well? Here is some information about how flooding can occur after a fire and what can be done if it happens.
There are a few ways water type damage can occur due to a fire.
In most cases, flooding after fire damage can be a cause for concern. Standing water can not only seep into the structure, weakening it and causing further damage, but it can become a prime area for mold growth. Depending on the water source there may also be sanitation issues to consider.
After a fire, a home may be left vulnerable to the elements, weakened pipes, and even the very firefighting efforts that helped save it. Fortunately, damage after a fire is not uncommon, meaning there are ways to restore your home. A team of fire and water damage professionals can take care of everything from cleaning and sanitation to restoration, rebuilding your home to pre-fire comfort and integrity.
Because fire damage can also lead to flooding, it's important to understand how this occurs and what should be done about it. If flood damage does occur in your home after a fire, it's best to get it cleaned up as soon as possible to prevent possible contamination and mold problems. Your local Mount Hermon,NJ, professionals can help.
Each fire damage situation is unique, making restoration a very difficult and precise project. At SERVPRO of Warren County, we strive to provide the best possible services after a business owner faces fire damage. Our main goal is to get your business restored to it's pre-damaged condition as soon as possible so you don't have to lose business while waiting for restoration services. We provide services in the Warren County area, focusing on the cities Hacketstown, Blairstown, and Phillipsburg. If your business faces fire, smoke, and soot damage, make sure to give SERVPRO of Warren County a call. Our team of specialists is available 24/7, 365 days a year. We are even available on weekends and holidays for your convenience. Let us help you get your business back to its best condition.
A space heater can provide extra warmth. It can also save on heating bills by allowing you to set the thermostat in your home in Blairstown, NJ, on low while still heating the specific rooms you are using to a comfortable temperature. A burned space heater doesn't help you, though. To avoid space heater fires, you need to follow a few simple tips.
To avoid having a burned space heater when you leave the room, remember to turn it off. Space heaters should never be left unattended while they are on, especially if you leave the house altogether. In fact, it's a good idea to unplug the heater when you are not at home. Keep an eye out for a frayed or otherwise damaged cord.
Keep your space heater clean to minimize fire risk. Dust and other debris can turn a functioning space heater into an electric fireplace in a hurry. Replace filters regularly according to the manufacturer's recommendation so that dirt does not infiltrate the heating mechanism. Follow maintenance instructions so that it not only lasts a long time but also does not become a safety issue.
A burned space heater can turn convenience into a nightmare. By following these simple guidelines, you can increase your creature comforts while still keeping you and your family safe. To avoid having to call for fire cleanup with a restoration company, choose a space heater that is safe and use it safely.
There are several ways to protect your Oxford Township,NJ, home from damage or danger, especially when it comes to fire prevention and detection. You may believe that having a fire alarm present in the kitchen or main room of your home is adequate protection; however, since fires can start anywhere and grow quickly, it is important to understand how effective your fire detection tactics are before a fire breaks out.
While having a smoke alarm on the main floor of your home can give you a measure of protection from fire and reduce the chance of major smoke damage to that room and its contents, it may not have the reach to detect fires in other areas of your home. For example, if the fire starts in the basement, the alarm may not sound until the blaze has grown large enough to reach the first floor from below. Consider placing a smoke detector on each floor and inside each bedroom for optimum protection.
Choosing a specific day to replace the batteries in each fire alarm inside your home can help you remember to service them all at the same time. One way to remind yourself is to set a notification on your phone or calendar the day the clocks fall back in late fall so you can be sure each alarm has fresh batteries for the coming winter, when the risk of fire damage increases due to the use of space heaters, fireplaces and candles.
If any smoke detectors in your home are 10 years of age or older, you might want to replace them with newer models. Older alarms might fail when you need them most, which can result in disaster. If you want to add new alarms to your home as well as replace old ones, ask a fire damage and restoration service to advise you about where to place them.
Understanding fire alarm maintenance can help you protect your Oxford Township,NJ, home. The more you learn, the better the chances you can prevent the devastation a house fire causes.

The politics of healthcare in Turkey
'The Politics of Healthcare Reform in Turkey' by Volkan Yılmaz (Palgrave Macmillan, 267 pages, €95)
A "revolution" in Turkey's healthcare system is among the most trumpeted achievements of the ruling Justice and Development Party (AKP) in its 15 years in office. It may not get much attention abroad, but the revamping of healthcare since 2002 is always near the top of the party's election material. According to the official line, the system in "Old Turkey" was chaotic, limited and ineffective, while healthcare in "New Turkey" is fairer, more comprehensive, and more efficient.
In "The Politics of Healthcare Reform in Turkey" Boğaziçi University assistant professor Volkan Yılmaz digs into the weeds of this reform process. What underpinned it? What were the results? What changed from the old system? What got better? What got worse? Who gained? Who lost? Unsurprisingly, the picture that emerges is more nuanced than election campaign material.
Yılmaz describes the old system as a fragmented, sometimes ad-hoc structure that was far from comprehensive and left many citizens outside of the system. State expenditure on healthcare was low and public healthcare coverage was overwhelmingly dependent on whether one held a position in the state apparatus, leaving many outside of the formal social security system. An acronym soup of agencies had different areas of authority in social insurance, while private healthcare was available for those with sufficient means.
The AKP came to power in 2002 amid a severe financial crisis that swept the old mainstream political order away. Among its early pledges was a vow to rearrange the healthcare system amid a broader range of painful economic reforms. On one level, the reforms appear in line with typical liberalizing and free market-fostering policies often described as "neoliberal." But the reality is more complicated. In Yılmaz's words, the changes "included both pro-market and redistributive measures."
The reforms established a compulsory general health insurance model covering all citizens (eventually put into practice in 2008). As a result, all citizens are now obliged to contribute to the public health insurance fund regardless of their employment status. The only exceptions are those whose income (or lack of it) makes them eligible for an exemption or a state subsidy. The reform also made specific healthcare services such as emergency services and cancer treatment free of charge for all citizens in both public and private hospitals. Public healthcare expenditures increased, though Turkey still spends less on healthcare services than all other members of the OECD in proportion to its GDP.
At the same time, the government actively supported an increased role for the private sector in healthcare provision, introducing user fees and supplementary private health insurance to top-up public health insurance. This expanded choice for healthcare recipients while "creating a strong commodification and marketization dynamic," Yılmaz writes. Patients no longer have to make contributory payments when they visit primary healthcare services, but they are obliged to make flat rate payments when receiving medications and outpatient services in public hospitals. Such flat-rate out-of-pocket payments are regressive and are among the continued obstacles for poor people in accessing healthcare, Yılmaz notes. The changes have also led to increased workload for physicians, who say they are unable to provide adequate services for patients (which is one factor behind rising cases of violence against healthcare professionals in Turkey).
Despite drawbacks, the public has responded positively to the changes. According to the Turkish Statistics Agency (TÜİK), the rate of citizens "highly satisfied" and "very highly satisfied" with the country's healthcare system increased from 40 percent in 2003 to around 75 percent in 2013. Yılmaz also quotes figures reporting that per capita hospital visits rose from 2 in 2002 to 5.1 in 2012, while doctor consultations per capita increased from 2.8 in 2000 to 8.3 in 2014. "Among other factors, the introduction of the healthcare reform was a sine qua non for the AK Party to become politically legitimate," writes Yılmaz.
Too often left-wingers unsubtly dismiss the AKP's political project as a textbook case of aggressive "neoliberalism." This lacks sophistication. As Yılmaz writes, the AKP has "simultaneously pursued both neoliberal economic policies and populist social policies," combining pro-marketism with welfare expansionism. Healthcare may not be the sexiest or most polemical area, but it does neatly showcase this "two-tiered policy agenda." Yılmaz's carefully researched book shows that this agenda is impossible to summarize in snappy all-encompassing terms.

If you have this popular salad in your fridge, throw it away immediately
By Lokendra Singh On Dec 25, 2021
Just in time for the holidays, Dole — along with the FDA and CDC — announced a new recall involving some of its salad products. The recall stems from the fact that some packaged salads may contain listeria monocytogenes. Note that this recall is completely separate from a similar recall from earlier in the week.
Which Dole salads are subject to the recall?
According to the FDA, Dole is recalling all branded and privately-labeled salads originating from the company's processing facilities in Bessemer City, North Carolina, and Yuma Arizona. Note that this includes salad with Kroger branding. In conjunction with the recall, Dole is stopping all production at the above plants.
Packaged salads subject to the recall have a product lot code that starts with either the letter "N" or "Y." The lot code is viewable on the upper right-hand corner of the package. Also note that the salads have a "Best if Used By" date that falls somewhere between November 30 and January 8, 2022.
All told, more than 170 distinct products are subject to the recall. The recall encapsulates coleslaw products, bags of romaine, bags of baby spinach, bags of shredded lettuce, salad kits, and much more. The full list of salad products that are part of the recall is extensive. It can be seen in its entirety over here.
Photos that show what packaging to look out for — with the "N" and "Y" lot codes — can be seen below:

Common listeria symptoms
Some common listeria symptoms include fever, nausea, abdominal pain, diarrhea, and pounding headaches. And while healthy adults can typically come through a listeria diagnosis just fine, listeria is much more dangerous for young children, the elderly, and anyone who happens to be immunocompromised.
Pregnant women in particular are at risk. Listeria can cause a range of serious pregnancy complications, from miscarriages to stillbirths. Per the Mayo Clinic, listeria can also impact newborns. Some symptoms in newborns include fever, vomiting, and difficulty breathing.
Consumers with questions about the salad recall can call Dole at 1-800-356-3111. The hotline is open from Monday through Friday. Its hours of operation are from 8 AM to 3 PM Pacific Time.

"To develop ports in the Danube river basin into multimodal logistics centres"
"To promote sustainable freight transport in the Danube region"
Taking into account changing demands of the port users and capacity bottlenecks, the continuous extension, rehabilitation and modernisation of waterside infra- and suprastructure is crucial in order to ensure safe and efficient port operations. There are a significant number of enhancement and modernisation projects currently under execution in all countries along the Danube and its navigable tributaries (e.g. quay wall restorations, terminal extensions, Roll-on/Roll-off facility enlargements and the modernisation or construction of supporting port facilities). Romania has by far the largest number of ongoing infrastructure enhancement projects which is due to the fact that Romania has the largest number of ports per country.
All TEN-T core ports along the Danube have a rail and road connection but of varying quality and capacities. The accessibility and connectivity of ports is of utmost importance to connect the waterways with the hinterland. Convenient port services like shore-side electricity supply facilities or waste water management facilities as well as transparent port charging systems enhance user-friendliness.
Port development is most sustainable when it takes into account not only the respective port areas and hinterland, but also development capacities and functional specialisations of other ports as well as gaps in the port network along the Danube. Several initiatives already developed common strategic approaches, but are hampered primarily by the non-existence of appropriate governance mechanisms and funding schemes for the implementation of concrete actions.
The Working Group on Ports & sustainable freight transport primarily provides support for the development of sustainable freight transport and business development in the Danube Region.
The Danube Logistics Portal provides useful services for Inland Waterway Transport along the Danube. By entering the cargo to be shipped, the loading and unloading port, the type of ship to be used and the operation mode of the vessel into the "Transport Planner" a complete overview of all possible service providers (shipping and brokering), information on the loading and unloading ports and the estimated travel time of the transport are provided.

Being President's Day, or as it's formally called, Washington's Birthday, I'm inspired to opine about the things I would do were I to hold the highest office in the land. This is offered mostly in fun since I will never be President, and most of my ideas would never get off the drawing board.
One of the first things I would do is address the climate change issue.
Is climate change real? Is it man made brought on by the industrial age? Honestly, I doubt it. Human's have been living on this earth for millions of years. Our industrial pollution has been in existence for less than 200. And yet we are to believe that 200 years of industrial pollution could end this earth as we know it by 2030? Come on! I tend to look at the earth as a shaggy dog with fleas. As soon as us fleas (humans) get too prevalent and destructive that great big dog will scratch and shake us off like we were the insignificant insects that we are. We aren't going to destroy the earth.
However, I am smart enough and humble enough to admit, I may be wrong. I'm not a scientist. I don't know. AND NEITHER DO YOU!
What I do know is this, pollution of our earth, air and water is bad. And nobody of any political party would ever say otherwise. And broken down to its bare essence the climate change activists simply want to eliminate pollution. Right?
I posted the above video because I think it is unquestionably the most effective anti-pollution marketing campaign in the history of environmental awareness. It's from the 1970s. If there is a better, more effective anti-pollution message please tell me. I haven't seen it.
So, if I were President I would make the Environmental Protection Agency be eliminated or nearly eliminated. Stopping climate change and pollution and specifically industrial pollution should be done this way. All regulations and requirements telling people and business how and what to do as it applies to pollution would be taken off the books. They would all be replaced by the following: "DO not pollute the air, earth, or water. If you do you will clean it up at your own expense. And if you don't clean it up we will penalize you financially out of existence and the individuals most responsible may spend some time in jail." That's it. No more government intrusion. Just a hard standard by which we are all expected to abide.
Then I would have the EPA establish specific language detailing "what is pollution". These standards could change as new challenges and information become available in our growth and evolution. But, ultimately, the government would be out of the business of telling us how to do whatever it is that we do.
If I were President abortion would be legal up to 20 weeks into a pregnancy. If you don't know that you are pregnant, or whether you want the baby or not 4-5 months into the pregnancy, I'm sorry, but you're having that baby. Science is perfectly clear that at that point (20 weeks) that fetus is alive. It's thinking. It's moving. It's receiving oxygen from its mother. It's a human being. And killing it is murder. It always amazes me the hypocrisy of the left on this (and so many other issues). When it comes to climate change the Left jumps up and down swearing we need to trust science (some science). But when it comes to abortion science is thrown out the window, and its all about a woman's right to choose (never mind the rights of the baby…or…for that matter…the rights of the father who also created that baby).
Gun Rights: Our Constitution guarantees our right to be armed. Period. Discussion over. The government can keep their hands off my guns until they amend the Constitution. However, that doesn't mean some steps can't be taken to allow for our safety by keeping guns out of the hands of criminals, terrorists, or revolutionaries who aim to do us harm. If I were President, I kind of drift towards the Chris Rock view on gun control. Let people have as many guns as they want. Just tax the shit out of ammunition. I'm only partially kidding. While I wouldn't really tax the shit out of all ammunition, I might set a standard by which any ammunition purchased over and above a reasonable level necessary for your own self defense would face an increasingly higher tax. The more you buy, the higher the tax.
We are never going to get money out of politics. People have been trying forever, and like a slow leak the money finds a way in and its flow only increases with time. The Supreme Court has ruled repeatedly that money, in the form of political donations, is a form of free speech. And aside from the wacky Bernie supporters, and other extreme leftists, do we really want to eliminate free speech in our country? In our lives? Hell no. So, while we can't eliminate money in politics we can sure do more to eliminate graft. If I were President I would seek legislation eliminating campaign contribution limits. Forget Citizens United. This would be open freedom for each and everybody to help elect whoever they wanted. However, I would have all contributions be required to be made public. All income tax filings by politicians would be required to be made public. And ALL elected officials would be banned from voting on any bill, ordinance, or resolution that directly or indirectly effects those who donated money towards their election. Money isn't the problem. Money in exchange for a vote or a policy position is a problem.
If I were President I would save hundreds of thousands of dollars by making English the official language of our country. All documents would be published in English. I don't have any hateful feelings or discriminatory feelings toward non-English speaking people. If Spanish were the overwhelming dominant language spoken by our citizenry I would advocate for Spanish to be the official language of our government. I just feel you have to put some expectation on people to take care of themselves, and that includes learning the language of the country you have chosen to inhabit. I would also prohibit your permanent entry into this country unless you spoke English or were immediately enrolled in a course to learn it. But, we can't be cold hearted. If we are going to expect people to learn and understand the English language it is up to us to provide an easy means by which they can do it. I would pump whatever amount of money is needed into educational programs from which non-English speaking people could learn to read and converse. An added benefit of English as our official language is that it would further dissuade illegal immigration by non-English speaking peoples.
Our infrastructure is falling apart. Roads and bridges and water transmission pipelines and aqueducts, electrical system transmission are almost all 50-100 years old. Some are older. Every President in memory has promised to address infrastructure. None have. Ultimately, Congress puts up the stop sign because of the massive cost. But here's the thing, the long we wait the larger the problem becomes and the more expensive it becomes. If I were President infrastructure repair and replacement would be THE top priority. I would decree that no public monies could be spent on any new infrastructure unless it was to repair or replace old infrastructure. And if it's brand new, addition private or public funding must be provided to repair or replace infrastructure that needs the work. I would authorize the Office of Management and Budget to audit the entire U.S. budget to find and eliminate wasteful spending. And I would find the money through cuts in that which isn't necessary.
If I were President wasteful spending would be another top priority. I would operate with a zero-sum budget in order to get a fresh start. Programs that should otherwise be funded by the private sector would be gone forever. Foreign aide would not be based on what was spent last year. And no foreign aide would be provided to any country that has antagonistic views of the U.S. And no funds would be provided for NATO or any other organization or treaty unless fellow members or treaty signers were pitching in their fair share.
Lastly, if I were President I would seek a line-item veto capability, which may require a Constitutional Amendment. The line-item-veto is available to Governors of 44 of our 50 states. It's a hedge against slipping unwanted and unnecessary spending or restrictions into a bill that otherwise would become law. Opponents argue that it makes the President too powerful. But I would argue, that it's too late for that argument. The President is already the most powerful person in the world. And much of what can be accomplished legally with a line item veto is already being done…often times illegally.
To me, there is so much more I would do if I were President. But I'm not. And I never will be. While I admit to being Conservative with a lean toward Libertarian you have to admit I don't completely fit the mold. There are some things in this blog that would have me drummed out of the Republican Party. And there are some things, a lot more things, Democrats wouldn't touch. But, if you were the one writing this blog…don't you think the same would be said of you?
Call us for radio advertising anywhere in the country, and cool and effective marketing videos.

Impeachment is a Problem
For only the forth time in United States history our President is subject of an impeachment inquiry in the House of Representatives. The charges against President Donald J. Trump, according to Democrats, is that he used his office to ask the President of Ukraine to investigate his political opponent former Vice-President Joe Biden, who remains the leading candidate for the Democratic nomination. Democrats claim the President withheld military aide to Ukraine, which had been approved by Congress, until Ukraine President Volodymyr Zelensky publicly announced the investigation of Biden, and Ukraine energy company Burisma Holdings where Biden's son Hunter Biden served as a highly paid member of the Board of Directors.
The number of things WRONG with the Democrats action in this matter are numerous. But let's just list a few.
1. Article II of the US Constitution enunciates the powers of the President. It gives the President sole determinative power over foreign policy, and communications with foreign Ambassadors and Representatives. It also gives him sole power over commanding our military. Like it or not the July 25th phone call between Zelensky and Trump was part of the operation of foreign policy for which Trump is exclusively in charge.
2. Democrats can't even articulate what crime(s) or to quote the Constitution, high crimes or misdemeanors, Trump committed. The closest thing you will hear to an actual claim of criminal conduct is "Abuse of Power". But, as we have already established, since Trump has sole authority in the practice of foreign relations how he talks with foreign leaders and what he says is largely whatever he wants; within the bounds of reality. Not liking what he said or how he said it does not rise to the level of criminal conduct.
3. The money was delivered. Though Trump admits putting a hold on the military aide to Ukraine, the money was ultimately delivered. And, it was delivered before such time as Democrats made the world aware of this whole situation.
4. The investigation didn't take place. The transcript from the July 25th phone call indicates that amongst other things Trump did ask Zelensky to "look into" the Burisma corruption situation. So, there is no arguing that Trump wanted the connection to Biden investigated. But, ultimately Zelensky ignored the request. And the money was still delivered.
5. The Biden's CLEARLY did something wrong, if not illegal. Newly released emails show that Ukrainian officials sought a meeting with the Obama Administration using the fact that Hunter Biden was on the Burisma Board as leverage to gain such a meeting. Joe Biden famously brags about the fact that he ordered Ukraine to fire a Prosecutor who was investigating Burisma for corruption. At best Ukraine and Burisma specifically used Hunter Biden to gain favor with the Vice-President and the Obama Administration. THIS IS PERFECTLY CLEAR. At worst, both the Biden's enriched themselves in exchange for using's Joe Biden's considerable influence and access to gain money and favors from the United States. Such corruption is illegal and possibly treasonous. On January 20, 2017 Donald Trump was sworn in as President and with his hand on the Bible promised to the best of his Ability, preserve, protect and defend the Constitution of the United States. By seeking foreign assistance in investigating corrupt and possibly treasonous activity by a past Vice-President and someone seeking the Presidency, Trump was certainly abiding by that oath.
I'm not naive enough to believe Trump wasn't happy to investigate and smear his primary Presidential opponent. But that's incidental to a legitimate investigation.
6. Trump will not be removed from office. Upon being impeached by the House, The Constitution requires that a trial for removal from office be held in the Senate, and that removal can only take place when 2/3 (or 67) Senators vote for the President's removal. For that to happen 20 Republican Senators would have to join ALL 47 Democratic Senators in voting for removal. There is absolutely no indication that Democrats can get 20 Republicans to go along with such a vote.
The impeachment inquiry is purely political. It's destructive to the country. It prevents other important matters from being discussed, and fixed.
Democrats have been boasting that they would impeach this President since the day he won election, before taking office. They have been pursuing it ever since. Now only 12 months before the next Presidential election they were forced to placate their zealous base and do it now or never.
On the good news side, upon impeaching and failing to remove President Trump from office I think his chances for re-election are pretty good; and I think the likelihood of Democrats trying this again in Trump's 2nd term are slim.
But then again, Democrats have proven that they are simply crazy. So they might.

The Seattle Times is Silly. Electoral College will stay.
The Seattle Times newspaper has joined the whiny call of liberals all over the country in calling for the elimination of the Electoral College used to choose our nation's President.
As part of their argument for this voter disenfranchisement of their reader's the Time's Editors erroneously point out that the need which created the Electoral College in our Constitution in 1789 no longer exist. They correctly point our that it was part of a compromise to encourage smaller agrarian southern states to join the union when they were afraid of being dominated by the more populous northern states. That need for preventing domination of smaller states by larger states still exists. The geography has changed. But look no further than the 2016 election map results to see how dominating urban centers could be in our Presidential elections if not for the Electoral College.
While red indicates the counties that voted for Trump and blue indicates the counties that voted for Clinton, Clinton won the popular vote.
Time magazine reported that Trump won 2649 counties nationwide, while Clinton won 503. Were the U.S. to rely on the popular vote for electing our President the vast majority of the country would be serfs to the oligarchs in New York and Los Angeles.
I believe in the individual rights and liberty granted me by the Declaration of Independence and the U.S. Constitution. And I defend those rights. It's amazing to me why Democrats continually want to give away those rights. They want to give away our 2nd Amendment Rights to have guns. They increasingly want to eliminate our first Amendment Rights to Free speech by suppressing what words we can say and what hats (MAGA) we can wear. They want to continue to defile the intent of the 14th Amendment by giving away our citizenship to the children of illegal aliens born within our borders who maintain citizenship in the countries from which their parents came. They want to eliminate first Amendment Rights to religion by ostracizing those who practice it, especially Christians.
And because they don't like Donald Trump they want to eliminate the Presidential voting rights of 95% of the country.
The argument for a nationwide popular vote rests on the myth that such a change would allow for 1 person, 1 vote. It's a myth because of the human nature of group think and self-interest. Blacks tend to vote one way. Whites tend to vote another way. Men tend to vote a certain way. Women, Jews, Christians, Catholics etc. etc. A national popular vote would put our nations Presidency strictly in the hands of urban voters. More specifically it would put the Presidency strictly in the hands of New York and Los Angeles.
Thank God the Founding Fathers found the compromises necessary to create the Constitution. A lot of people in Wyoming, Delaware, Montana, Alaska, North and South Dakota and Vermont might resent only having a single representative in the U.S. House while California has 53, New York has 27, Texas 36, Florida 27, Pennsylvania 18, Illinois 18. Only 6 states make up 41% of the House. 15 states have 3 or fewer House Representatives. More than half the states, 26, have a total of only 77 Representatives or less than 18 percent of the House's 435 members. As such the more populous states have a gigantic voting advantage over the less populous states.
If this isn't all about hating Trump and its about 1 man 1 vote why wouldn't they argue against our bicameral Congress? Why not eliminate the Senate? After all the small states get 2 votes there, same as the more populous states. To properly understand the wisdom of the Founding Fathers you have to understand the balance they had to achieve in order to form a more perfect union.
Ultimately this is a silly argument because eliminating the Electoral College would require a Constitutional Convention and ratification of any Amendments by 3/4 of the states. Fortunately, as pointed out here, a majority of the states are small and even if such a Convention took place and even if an Amendment were adopted (both of which are highly unlikely) there are not enough idiots who think we live in a Democracy throughout the smaller states to commit political suicide and totally disenfranchise their voters. It won't happen. And we can thank God for it.

Democrats Perpetrating Presidential Hoax's is Nothing New.
We're placing this video from the January 2012 Republican Presidential debate here for you to watch to be reminded that Democrats perpetrating a hoax on the American people in Presidential election years is nothing new.
In this clip you see former Bill Clinton staffer, ABC News corespondent George Stephanopoulos grill eventual Republican nominee Mitt Romney about the Constitutionality of birth control. In watching the video it should be obvious Romney's utter confusion as to why the question was being asked. You also see Stephanopoulos refusing to let Romney get away from the question without the ardent Democrat extracting from Romney an admission that the right-to-privacy, as determined by the Supreme Court's Roe vs. Wade abortion decision should be overturned.
Stephanopoulos was on a mission. And only in viewing that which followed in the national press does it become clear what his mission was.
It should be noted that not at that time or since has there ever been an effort by Republicans or anyone else to take away a woman's right to contraception medicines or devices. Which explains why Romney was so stumped by the question and by Stephanopoulos' ardent pursuit of an answer.
What this question spawned was the Democrats claim of a "War on Women", which became the overriding theme of President Obama's campaign against Romney in general and Republicans specifically. It was a lie. It was never true that Republicans were waging a war on women. But the effects of the campaign undoubtedly turned many female voters into Romney haters and helped secure four more years in the White House for a Democratic President that had done very little to deserve re-election.
Fast forward seven years to 2019. At the dawning of the 2020 Presidential campaign Democrats were in high gear touting the alleged conspiracy President Trump and his campaign had partaken in with Russia to win the 2016 campaign against Hillary Clinton. To listen to Democrats and the mainstream media (MSM) Trump's impeachment was inevitable. He was treasonous, they claimed. Then the Mueller report came out and some air was let out of their balloon. The Mueller report completely exonerated Trump and his campaign on any claim of Russian collusion and said insufficient evidence existed to charge obstruction of justice for a crime it said never took place.
What remaining air was left in their collusion/impeachment balloon disappeared entirely when the report's author Robert Mueller appeared before Congress and testified in such a way as to make clear he had little hands on involvement in his own report. Subsequently, it became clear that the report exonerating Trump and his staff was put together by Mueller's investigative staff which was assembled almost entirely of Democratic partisans. And still, they couldn't pin anything on Trump.
So, the collusion conspiracy lie died suddenly. Its death being fully complete when during the Democratic Presidential debates on CNN not a single moderator asked, and not a single candidate spoke of the Russian allegations against Trump.
So, what's dominating the news now? Trump is a racist! He's not only a racist, he's a white supremacist encouraging white supremacy groups all over the country. The claim is so pervasive that Trump is even being blamed for mass shootings that occurred over this past weekend. The fact is that mass shootings, mental illness and sometimes the hatred that triggers them is an American phenomena dating back decades before Trump ever entered the public eye.
It's time to make the Democrats pay for the lies that they perpetrate. Though Trump is guilty of incendiary language at times; and though he's an egotist and a blow-hard his actions as President and long before prove decisively that he is not a racist or white supremacist.
It's my fervent prayer that the lemmings who vote Democratic election after election will finally see that the party of the KKK and of Jim Crowe and of Socialism is a party hell-bent on power and control and that merely lying about a person's character is but a small but necessary step in achieving their ultimate goals.

Kavanaugh and Common Ground
The recently concluded U.S. Supreme Court confirmation hearings of Justice Brett Kavanaugh have ignited the passions of all Americans. Seldom in our nation's history have political sides been so fiercely divided. Democrats strongly believe Kavanaugh didn't belong on the nation's highest court. They strongly believe he is guilty of sexually assaulting a 15 year old girl 37 years ago when he was 17 years old. Many have called him a rapist. Many believe his angry response to these charges disqualifies him because he demonstrated a temperament and a political bias that is inappropriate for serving as a judge let alone a Justice. Many believe he would over turn Roe vs Wade, the 45 year old Supreme Court ruling that legalized virtually all abortions throughout the land, and because of this he is unqualified for the Court. These are Democrat's beliefs. And it makes no difference how wrong YOU think these beliefs are. It's clear Democrats are immovable in these beliefs. Polls show no other demographic is the determining factor in whether a person finds Kavanaugh qualified or not. Not age, race, sexual orientation, income, geographic location. Nothing but your political affiliation determines whether you think Kavanaugh is guilty of the cruel charges against him. If you vote Democrat you believe his confirmation to be a travesty.
Republicans believe Kavanaugh was wronged and smeared with lies and exaggerations in a calculated character assassination designed to derail his Supreme Court nomination. They point to the fact that no charge against him is any newer or fresher than 35 years ago. Republicans point to accuser's inability to produce evidence or corroborating witnesses. They point to Kavanaugh's lifetime of service in government and in community service and his wonderful family. They believe him to be a good man.
As this is written we are 3 days from his confirmation being solidified and the storm has not quelled yet. Democratic politicians even talk of opening investigations into the recent claims that date back 30+ years and of impeaching the Justice. Samuel Chase, an original signatory of the Declaration of Independence is the only Supreme Court Justice to ever be impeached. The U.S. House voted for impeachment in 1805. The Senate acquitted the Associate Justice that same year.
It's hard to fathom where we go from here. Division is so firm right now. But this Republican hopes to invoke the words of three Democrats in this writing in the hopes of beginning a mending of this country. Few things politically have upset me to the degree this matter has and while I think it would be easy to point fingers at the Left for their tactics in the Kavanaugh case, there is no getting around the fact that the Left is firm in its belief. So continuing to try and change their mind amounts to pounding ones head against brick. They would say the same of the Right.
In 1963 President John F. Kennedy said: "So, let us not be blind to our differences–but let us also direct attention to our common interests and to the means by which those differences can be resolved. And if we cannot end now our differences, at least we can help make the world safe for diversity. For, in the final analysis, our most basic common link is that we all inhabit this small planet. We all breathe the same air. We all cherish our children's future. And we are all mortal."
It was in the context of world peace. But's its cry for togetherness applies very much to today.
It was during his 1961 inaugural address that Kennedy said, "Ask not what your country can do for you. Ask what you can do for your country."
In 1988 defeated Democratic Presidential candidate Jesse Jackson addressed the Democratic National Convention in a stem winding speech where he repeatedly invoked the phrase "Common Ground". "Common Ground! That is the challenge to our party tonight. Left wing. Right wing. Progress will come not through boundless liberalism nor static conservatism, but at the critical mass of mutual survival. It takes two wings to fly. The Bible teaches that when lions and the lambs can lie down together and none will be afraid, there will be peace in the valley. Common ground. American is not a blanket, woven from one thread, one color, one cloth. "
And in 2004 a State Senator from Illinois spoke at the Democratic National Convention about Red states and Blue states:
Three Democrats. One theme. We are all bound together and we all can achieve more when we work together.
Togetherness and love for one another is the only answer. It's important for everyone of us to learn disagreement is not hate. Agreement is not love. Love is love. And we need a lot more of it.
So where can Americans find common ground:
Do we all want health for ourselves and especially our children?
Do we all want our politics free from corruption and graft.
Do we all want reduced crime in all forms?
Do we all want peace in the world and to remain free of war?
Do we all want safe, dependable roads and bridges?
Do we all want police forces that keep us safe and that don't abuse their power?
Do we all want opportunity to pursue happiness as we define it?
Do we all want clean air and water?
Do we all want to eliminate the threat of global terrorism?
Yes is the answer to all these questions. And there are so many more that given time and some help I could list.
I've said many times, you and I are being manipulated. Sometimes its obvious and often it is more subtle. But both sides do it. Republicans and Democrats make crises out of whole clothe in order to incite the passions of their followers for the purpose of gaining money and votes. Be aware of this, sensitive to it, and reject it when you see it.
The American people have it within our own powers to end the hate and move forward happily toward a brighter future. Through volunteerism, charitable donations, and voting for political candidates who reject rank manipulation, corruption and graft we can put into power more honorable men and women. We're capable. 17 years ago in the wake of 9-11 who would have ever thought a black man with a Muslim father and name would be a two term President of the United States? Two year ago who successfully predicted a vain, loud, egomaniac TV personality and businessman would be elected to the same office?
To get to the point where we can foster the type of political leaders we need to stop calling names and presuming each others motives. As pointed out above, we all want pretty much the same things. We all can share common ground on nearly all issues. We just need to better figure how to get there. Founding father Benjamin Franklin was renowned for his wisdom and ability to find compromise. He also said, "Remember not only to say the right thing in the right place, but far more difficult still, to leave unsaid the wrong thing at the tempting moment."

Saudi Arabia's anti-graft sweep was led by Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman.
Saudi Arabia has reportedly launched a new office to monitor state spending as part of its ongoing fight against corruption.
The financial reporting office would be part of the state's General Auditing Bureau, public prosecutor Saud al-Mojeb was quoted as saying on Monday by state news agency SPA, Reuters reported on Tuesday.
"Corruption is not restricted to a specific company or government sector. The concerned authorities will be monitoring," he said.
Last week, Saudi Arabia announced the end of a high-profile anti-corruption probe that boosted the state coffers by more than $100 billion and has left dozens detained.
The crackdown on graft launched in 2017 saw hundreds of elite princes, ministers and businessmen held at the luxury Ritz-Carlton hotel in the Saudi capital Riyadh.
Many were detained for weeks in the upmarket hotel, but most were released after agreeing significant financial settlements.
An additional eight people have seen their cases referred to the public prosecutor after they refused to reach settlements.
During the probe more than SR400 billion ($107 billion) were recovered by the state "in the form of real estate, companies, cash, and other assets".
Saudi's anti-graft sweep led by Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman has been labelled by some critics as a shakedown and power grab, but authorities have insisted the purge targeted endemic corruption.

Bicycle Network backs Rail Trail Funding
1 Comment Posted by bendigokilmore on Aug 13, 2022
Representing a number of regional communities, the Friends of the Bendigo-Kilmore Rail Trail together with the Mitchell Bicycle Users Group call upon the Victorian State Government to prioritise future funding for the Wallan to Heathcote Rail Trail project, in accordance with Bicycle Network's submission to the State Government's 2022/23 budget.
2.1 Extend the O'Keefe Rail Trail (Submission extract from pages 9&10)
Bicycle Network recommends a funding commitment to extend Central Victoria's O'Keefe Rail Trail from Heathcote to Wallan…….
A 2017 feasibility study outlined the strategic merit for advancing the WHRT project, concluding that the economic benefits ($23.1 million) outweigh the costs…….
Bicycle Network views the O'Keefe Rail Trail extension as an exciting enhancement of the O'Keefe Rail Trail which will pave the way for a number of exciting opportunities:…..
We strongly encourage the Victorian Government to support local businesses, historical societies, and the general bike riding public by providing the $17.18 million in funding to complete the extension.
While unfortunately the approved State Government's 2022/23 budget did not included funding for this project, the President of the Friends of the Bendigo Kilmore Rail Trail Colin Scott said "It's time for more investment in developing cycling and walking infrastructure in regional areas. Such investment will assist small tourist related businesses to employ and stimulate local economies."
In 2021, the Victorian Government took action to support regional sectors by launching the 'Stay Close, Go Further' campaign, encouraging Victorians to get out and explore their backyard. "Rail trails do just this!" Mr Scott said, "Offering Victorians and visitors the chance to explore and spend in regional communities, whilst getting active." With significant community support for ongoing investment in regional rail trails, the State government is encouraged to place such development as a priority in future budgets.
Off-Road Trail Network-Regional Victoria. Created by Friends of the Bendigo-Kilmore Rail Trail
With Victoria hosting the 2026 Commonwealth Games, and Bendigo being one of four regional hubs selected to hold a number of the events, such a proposed trail link between Craigieburn and Heathcote (and Bendigo) would open up a high value regional trail network of international significance to compliment the Melbourne metro trail network. This web of trails would also provide regional active links with the public transport hubs of Southern Cross Station and the Melbourne Airport.
Like to have your input into regional trail developments for future State budget allocations, as well as investment in the 2026 Commonwealth Games to provide lasting infrastructure legacies beyond the competition period for regional Victoria? Then you could contact and email –

Diversity and equality in arts education
Registered teacher Katie Levett gives her perspective from The Deborah Day Theatre School Trust on diverse training environments
The Deborah Day Theatre School Trust (DDTST) has been operating in the London Borough of Newham for 39 years. Principal and founder Deborah Day facilitated the transition to its charity status nine years ago to create further opportunities for her students.
Deborah approached present and past staff members, pupils and partners in the community to initiate further discussion around the subject of that diversity. As a past long term member of staff, I offered to work with Deborah to put this article together so it could be written from an outside point of view, with inside knowledge to do justice to the work and opportunities that Deborah has built for her community.
As this article is specifically pertaining to the successful long term operation of a diverse school, it is poignant to acknowledge that the school was initially set up in an area that has always been culturally diverse, and an area which has grown even more so in the past 39 years.
Until a few years ago the school was set up at the Hartley Centre on Barking road in the heart of East Ham. In addition to this venue as the main hub, Deborah set up an effective outreach venue to provide opportunities that were previously nonexistent for the young population residing in Poplar. This outreach venue succeeded in supporting many young people into transitioning into the full school programme.
The Hartley Centre (a Church Army run building), was used by the community for numerous events, community groups, prayer, choirs, disability run projects, sports, and adult education. Across culturally diverse areas such as East Ham, there is an underlying feeling of cross community family. DDTST may have hired the centre for the purpose of teaching performing arts classes, but the inevitable connections with other user groups was key to the creation of connected community. User groups actively sought partnership and created partnerships for the good of the whole. Deborah Day said: "This was paramount in the development of the school and the culture of the school that stands today."
Ambition Aspire Achieve (AAA) founder, Kevin Jenkins OBE, said: "AAA works in partnership with DDTST bringing dance education to disadvantaged and disabled children in the borough."
The Hartley Centre was pulled down by the local council four years ago, and the school is now situated in Forest Gate in an Academy School. Fortunately DDTST is able to offer the same facilities for the parents and students and has maintained the same ethos and values built at their previous hub venue.
Deborah offers the same training and opportunities for every young person who walks through her door, and like many of us she goes that extra mile for those that need her. Past students working professionally in the industry teaching or performing, return to contribute and work for the school, and past students who are now parents and bring their own children into the school to replicate their own positive experiences.
There are students in the school who have never been to a theatre, or even to the seaside so the school provides opportunities outside the classroom for the students whole educational and life experience.
Deborah explains: "Through applying for opportunities with the Jack Petchey Foundation and further cultivating a relationship on behalf of our school and students, DDTST is aligned with the Jack Petchey Silver Scheme which provides a termly bursary, which helps to fund group experiences and to subsidise the cost of equipment for the school."
Recently the Jack Petchey Foundation provided the funds for the students to attend a water activity park for the day. "The students had not attended dance classes due to COVID-19 for several months, after all the disruption we are grateful to Jack Petchey for the opportunity for our students to have had a bit of normality," she said.
Deborah continues: "Of the many partnerships that I have built, our partnership with Newham College of Education is one of the decisions (conscious or otherwise) that has facilitated diverse representation in the education of the arts." The London Borough of Newham is considered to be one of the most impoverished areas in the UK. Without the secured funding, the reality is that none of the students would have had the opportunity to train and become qualified with the Imperial Society of Teachers of Dancing." Deborah secured funding from Newham College to offer and deliver the Society's teacher training qualifications in Modern and Tap dance to 16 to 24 year olds.
"I was able to run this programme for a three year period until the funding was no longer available, but this short time alone has changed the face of my Imperial Society of Teacher of Dancing teaching faculty. Throughout this time period, nine of my own students qualified and are now actively teaching either for DDTST, or have set up their own schools," she added. "Representation in the face of diversity is an absolute necessity. You cannot be what you cannot see. A multicultural school should have a qualified multicultural teaching faculty (in all genres )."
Samuel Nicholas, who is a DDTST 2014 graduate, Imperial Society of Teachers of Dancing teacher, The Centre PAC 2016 graduate and industry professional, explained: "It's why I love coming back to the school to teach, so that the kids who look like me and come from the same background as me can see that it's possible to have a viable career in this industry. Deborah has always championed diversity."
A diverse training environment does not necessarily support further careers for considered minority groups. During my time as a member of staff in the school, Society trained members of staff were all white British. Deborah has always had a diverse staff, but to not see that diversity represented in the face of the teaching staff qualified in the syllabus with which you (the students) are devoting your life to training in, certainly alerts us to questioning why this is and how active changes can be made.
Shakira Simpson, who is a DDTST 2013 graduate, DDTST Imperial Society of Teachers of Dancing teaching faculty and third year student at Urdang Academy says: "From a young age, I attended the DDTST. During my time at the school, my classes have always been multiculturally diverse. Never once did I feel out of touch with my surroundings, or feel uncomfortable in a sense where I didn't belong, as there were people like me from the same backgrounds who had similar life experiences. I strongly believe it's important for ethnic minority children to have representation, as we are often not portrayed in roles of authority. Now that I'm at a vocational training college, the lack of this representation is especially noticeable. Even in the industry, it's a lot harder for POC to book jobs. I take pride in not just being a teacher, but in being a role model to all my students, and I hope as time moves on, we will see the progression of more ethnic minority teachers within the qualified teaching members and authority faculty of the Imperial Society of Teachers of Dancing."
This extends to further training. As a school with an excellent level of core training, many of the students have been accepted into further educational and vocational programmes. Students have communicated back to the school and staff that in a vocational setting they have certainly been a minority and have felt a lack of representation and also a lack of education in these environments to support minority groups. Following the death of George Floyd, Black Lives Matter (BLM) has absolutely put the spotlight on these shortcomings in the past few months.
Students who have attended diverse schools such as DDTST have found themselves in less familiar territory in their vocational establishments. It is important to acknowledge that these are very real experiences and that much change is necessary. Through communication, past students across different institutions have often looked to each other for support and guidance where it does not exist amongst their peers or from the top of their institutions. Some positive change has been made in response to BLM, with professional ex-students mentoring current students in their vocational colleges which has been arranged and facilitated by the institutions individually.
Leah Harvey, who is a DDTST 2013 graduate, LAMDA 2016 graduate and industry professional says: "Due to my own lived experience, I'm able to mentor people who come from similar backgrounds to myself, and who have experienced being in higher educational vocational performing arts establishments as a minority. It's a step forward in terms of progression, and I'm glad to have the opportunity to be part of this necessary progression, but it certainly highlights that in 2020 there is still an undeniable lack of representation at the top to direct this education and progress, which means that the active change and education of change is now starting from the bottom up. I have the confidence now that I work in the industry to go back and to be part of this change and education, but it's important to say that it can be problematic when change is trying to take effect from the bottom up due to the balance of power within this type of framework."
Speaking to Deborah about the experiences that our students in further vocational training are having and have had, she said "It's a brilliant opportunity to be able to present this article, but it would be fantastic if these conversations could be continued with our students and other students who are having these direct experiences, so that we are not still having these same conversations in 10 years time."
The first black student accepted on The Royal Ballet Junior Associate programme, some 15 years ago was a student from DDTST. I asked Deborah what her school means to her: "I am proud of my school, I am proud of my students. We work every day to make a difference, whether that be a small daily victory or a life changing path. In the face of adversity the difference that is made is often not as progressive as it could or should be, but we will keep working at it, I believe in what we are doing, and I'm proud of every single achievement our students have made."
I would conclude with the acknowledgment that a multiculturally diverse area does not necessarily equate to a successfully run multiculturally diverse school. Deborah Day's approach to providing equal opportunities for her school in the community is the measure for such a success.
