has doubled the bonus value set forth by Cravath Swaine & Moore LLP earlier in December. Irell & Manella LLP is said to have dished out close to $75,000 to its associates.
The memo sent out to associates at Irell emphasized that the bonuses were double the ones handed out by Cravath.
The Irell firm is not the first law firm to surpass the bonus threshold set by Cravath in December. In the final month of 2011, Fried Frank Shriver & Jacobson LLP said they would top the Cravath scale as they handed out bonuses that had varying amounts reaching a cutoff of $52,500.
The 2010 class at Irell will be issued a $15,000 bonus; the 2009 class will be issued a $20,000 bonus; the 2008 class will be issued a $30,000 bonus; the 2007 class will be issued a $40,000 bonus; the 2006 class will be issued a $50,000 bonus; the 2005 class will be issued a $60,000 bonus and the 2004 class will be issued a $75,000 bonus.
LLP LLP. It was reported that Clifford Chance LLP handed out bonuses worth $42,500 for the 2003 class and older.
Also in December, Quinn Emanuel Urquhart & Sullivan LLP announced that the end of year bonuses it would hand out would also exceed the Cravath pay scale. Their bonuses surpassed the Cravath ones for lawyers who dedicated billable hours over 2,100 during 2011. Bonuses from Quinn Emanuel ranged from $6,375 to $62,000 and they were based on length of time at the firm and how many hours the lawyers worked during the year.
The summer bonuses issued by Irell also went above those issued by Cravath in the spring. Irell said back in the month of July that it would issue bonuses of $27,500 to its associates, unrelated to the amount of billable hours worked.
The law firm of Kirkland & Ellis LLP handed out bonuses for 2011 that were higher than those issued by Cravath.
Some of the associates at Kirkland who were able to bill hours ranging from 2,250 and 2,350 hours for 2011 reported that they had been issued bonuses almost twice the amount of the Cravath pay scale. There were some associates who worked over 2,700 billable hours who claim they received close to $40,000 for a bonus. This amount would have been four times the amount handed out by Cravath.

Says Senate Republicans are "following a longstanding tradition of not filling vacancies on the Supreme Court in the middle of a presidential election year."
By Lauren Carroll March 22, 2016
Mitch McConnell exaggerates 'tradition' of not confirming election year Supreme Court nominees
Majority Leader Sen. Mitch McConnell, R-Ky., said his party is following a longstanding tradition by vowing not to consider any Supreme Court nominee until after a new president is inaugurated in 2017.
McConnell has said he won't even meet with federal appeals court Judge Merrick Garland, President Barack Obama's nominee to replace conservative Justice Antonin Scalia, who died in February — let alone hold hearings or a vote on Garland. Fox News Sunday host Chris Wallace asked McConnell if it would be hard to maintain such a rigid argument over the next several months.
McConnell responded by listing prior comments from several Democratic senators.
"We're following the Biden rule," he said, referring to comments made by Vice President Joe Biden in 1992. "And Biden was chairman of the Judiciary Committee in 1992, in presidential election year, he said the Senate should not act on filling a Supreme Court vacancy if it had occurred that year. Harry Reid when he was back in 2005 said the president nominates, but the Senate doesn't have to vote. Chuck Schumer, who will be the next Democratic leader, said in 2007 they wouldn't confirm. The Democrats were in the majority in the Senate, they wouldn't confirm a Bush appointment to the Supreme Court if one occurred within 18 months of a presidential election.
"So, all we're doing, Chris, is following a long standing tradition of not filling vacancies on the Supreme Court in the middle of a presidential election year."
It is more than a stretch for McConnell to say it's a "tradition" for the Senate not to fill a Supreme Court vacancy in an election year.
In the past century, there have been 25 presidential elections. Just four Supreme Court seats opened up in those election years. In three of those instances, the Senate confirmed the president's nominee, and just once — the only election-year court opening in the past 80 years — did the Senate refuse a nominee.
So the scenario McConnell described has happened exactly once in the past century, in 1968, and that decision did not actually leave a vacancy on the court for any period of time.
"This is entirely a matter of circumstance," Sarah Binder, a political scientist at George Washington University, previously told PolitiFact. It's "certainly not a norm or tradition by presidents refraining from nominating in a presidential election year, or by senators refusing to consider such nominations."
One-time 'tradition'
In June 1968, Chief Justice Earl Warren told President Lyndon Johnson he planned to retire. Johnson nominated sitting justice Abe Fortas to succeed Warren as chief. Fortas hit strong bipartisan Senate opposition and asked that his name be withdrawn for chief justice (though he stayed on the court as an associate justice). Johnson had also nominated Homer Thornberry to take Fortas' place on the court. But that nomination, too, was withdrawn, as Fortas never became chief justice.
While there was some opposition to the Fortas nomination based on the fact that Johnson was a lame duck, Fortas' failed confirmation primarily resulted from ethical questions over fees he received, his prior decisions and his closeness with Johnson. In any case, the Senate's decision not to confirm didn't actually leave a vacant seat on the court because Warren chose to stay on the bench.

"Chief Justice John Roberts goes after the highest court in the land, citing their 'inappropriate political influence.'"
By Ciara O'Rourke • January 5, 2022
Scalia's seat, however, will remain vacant for as long as the Senate refuses to confirm a nominee. Without a ninth justice to break ties, it's possible that many decisions will result in a 4-4 deadlock, which would mean the decisions of the lower court would stand.
There are more examples in the past century of the Senate confirming Supreme Court nominees for seats that open up in election years, though it is still a rare occassion. You have to go back about 80 years, as McConnell correctly noted on Fox News Sunday.
In 1932, President Herbert Hoover nominated, and the Senate confirmed, Benjamin Cardozo. In 1916, Woodrow Wilson nominated John Clarke and Louis Brandeis, and they both made it through the Senate.
McConnell's talking point also ignores the two instances in the past century when the Senate confirmed Supreme Court nominees in election years, even though the seat opened up in the year prior. In 1988, the Senate confirmed Ronald Reagan's nominee, Anthony Kennedy, though the seat became vacant in 1987. And in 1940, the Senate confirmed Franklin Roosevelt's nominee, Frank Murphy, though the seat became vacant in 1939.
A few 19th century presidents also nominated Supreme Court justices in election years, though not all of them were successful, according to a February 2016 article in the Cook Political Report by University of Georgia political scientist John Anthony Maltese.
Maltese found that since the country's founding, soon-to-depart presidents have made 32 Supreme Court nominations. Those nominations came within a period ranging from within 365 days of a successor's election through the successor's inauguration. Of those 32 nominations, the Senate confirmed 18 — hardly proving that McConnell or his Democratic opponents have reason to claim tradition.
The record shows that Republicans' inaction on Obama's nominee is not rooted in some longstanding tradition, especially in the past century.
SCOTUSblog editor Amy Howe wrote, "The historical record does not reveal any instances since at least 1900 of the president failing to nominate and/or the Senate failing to confirm a nominee in a presidential election year because of the impending election."
McConnell said Senate Republicans are "following a longstanding tradition of not filling vacancies on the Supreme Court in the middle of a presidential election year."
McConnell's use of the phrase "longstanding tradition" is misleading, as the Senate has chosen not to fill a Supreme Court seat that opens up during an election year just once in the past 100 years.
The reality is that, at least in recent decades, the Senate has rarely been presented with the opportunity to consider a Supreme Court nominee in an election year. It's so rare that there's no fully analogous scenario to compare with the current debate over filling Scalia's seat.
McConnell's statement is not accurate, so we rate it False.

1841 Census Notes
Occupations in 1841
This was the first detailed record of every person living in England and Wales.
Whilst slightly less informative than the later census returns, the 1841 census is nevertheless an excellent source for both genealogists and local historians.
It was written in pencil or with cheap ink so is not always easy to read.
Censuses had been held prior to this, in 1801, 1811, 1821 and 1831, but they were very limited as they were generally just head counts and the original lists may not have been preserved.
Other Census Years
What it Tells You Understanding the References
What it Tells You
Here is an example from the 1841 census for the parish of Matlock, Derbyshire:
Scarthin Nick James Evans 50 Labourer Y
(each entry shows the person's address, name, age and sex, occupation and 'birthplace')
Although the exact address within the parish was rarely given in 1841, the enumerators' marks in the next two columns (not shown in the example above but shown on the census between the address column and the name) are very important. A single line, like a forward slash (/), marks the end of a household: a double line (//) shows the end of a building. In some places, up to 10 different households can be found in a single building! Please note that, on the transcripts of the 1841 census for Matlock and Matlock Bath published on this website, it is only the double marks that end a building that have been identified and the original film should be checked to confirm individual households. A building's inhabitants may be on more that one page.
The census gave the householder's name and the names of his dependants, although no relationships were given. Servants were shown as F.S. or M.S. (see Occupation below) but visitors, lodgers or boarders were not recorded as such. The column heading asked for 'Names of each person who abode therein the preceding Night'. If the name of the person was not known, it was recorded as N.K.
AGE and whether MALE/FEMALE:
Ages were rounded down to the nearest five years for those over the age of 14 years of age (15 = 15-19; 20 = 20-24 etc). However, there were exceptions and in some places the enumerator was more accurate than he was required to be.
Whether someone was male or female was defined by the column their age was recorded in. As names were mis-spelt, it is advisable to check this column. One of the most common errors occurred with the names Francis and Frances, where there are only slight differences in spelling between the male and female names.
The column heading asked for 'Profession, Trade, Employment, or of Independent Means'. Enumerators were instructed to use certain abbreviations, and the following have been found in the Matlock census:
Ag Lab - Agricultural Labourer (included those styled as husbandman)
Ap - Apprentice
Cl - Clerk
F.S. - Female servant
Ind - Independent (someone with an independent income, so living on their own means. In later census returns often referred to as an Annuitant as they were living off an annuity)
Lab - Labourer
J - Journeyman
M or m - Maker (e.g. Shoe Maker)
M.S. - Male servant
Also see: 1841 Census, Parish of Matlock: Distribution of Occupations
The information is very limited, as it does not include the town or village. 'Y'[es] or 'N'[o] shows whether the person was born within the county of the particular census place, if it was in England or Wales. This was usually correct, but like all census returns relied on both the informant to give accurate information and the enumerator to record exactly what he had been told. There is an adjacent column for those born in Ireland or Scotland: 'I' born in Ireland; 'S' for born in Scotland.
Understanding The References
Every census between 1841 and 1901 was given a code as a reference. Both 1841 and 1851 begin with HO 107/ and this is followed by a number which is the number given to each Registration District and/or a Sub-District. These were civil divisions and sometimes differ from those of the parish. The reference for the parish of Matlock in 1841 is: HO 107/198. This is split up further into book numbers - for example, /5, /6 or /7.
(Note: in 1841 Matlock is given as being in the Hundred of Wirksworth, which was a civil division).
There are also other sub divisions:
ENUMERATION DISTRICT - normally covered about 555* people, but in rural areas it was also what an individual enumerator could cover in one day.
FOLIO NUMBER - stamped on the top right hand corner of every sheet by the PRO when they received the returns. So the folio number actually refers to both sides of the paper, in other words it covers two pages. It is easy to see when you are going through a census film.
PAGE NUMBER - appears at the top of every page, in other words on both sides of each folio and was printed, not stamped, on the page. Depending on the census year it is sometimes in the centre, and sometimes on the right. There is a line space in these transcripts to indicate a new page.
There were no other reference numbers in the 1841 census. Schedule numbers did not appear until the 1851 returns.

The Plot to Overthrow Christmas is a radio play written by Norman Corwin and first performed on December 25, 1938.

Plot
The play, a fantasy told entirely in rhyme, begins with a narrative introduction. It proceeds without further narration, but a character named Sotto voce occasionally interrupts with parenthetical footnotes for the audience. Sound effects depict a descent to Hell: a gong, followed by two crashes of thunder; then an electronic hum, first descending, then ascending in pitch; which dissolves into a sustained violin note, which finally turns into a classical cadenza.

The violin is being played by the Roman emperor Nero, whose playing is interrupted by a courier summoning him to an urgent meeting called by the Devil, Mephistopheles. Mephisto explains to an assembly including Nero, Ivan the Terrible, the Biblical Haman, the Roman emperor Caligula, the Borgias, and Simon Legree, that he is concerned about the thwarting of his efforts to corrupt humanity, by the peace and good will generated by the Christmas holiday. He solicits proposals to deal with the matter. First, Caligula suggests poisoning Christmas foods and candies. Next, Nero suggests corrupting sacred Christmas music by converting it to jazz style, as has been done to classical music. Then Legree suggests bribing the US Congress to outlaw Christmas, but Mephisto points out the uncertainty of depending on corrupt politicians, who could just as easily be turned the other way. Finally, Lucrezia Borgia suggests assassinating Santa Claus, a deed she is anxious to do herself. Mephisto puts the proposals to a vote, and Borgia's plan wins. Nero is then chosen by lottery as the assassin.

After a bit of fuss about how to get to Earth and to find Santa, Nero ascends to Earth with a gun in Act II and makes the arduous trek to Santa's domicile in the North Pole. Santa invites him in, well aware of Nero's sinister purpose. Santa tells Nero that the Devil cares nothing about Nero, and is only using him to acquire as large an earthly empire as possible. Nero briefly succumbs to this logic, but then takes Santa's argument as a battle of wits, and boasts of his intellectual superiority and cultural (musical) sensitivity. Santa counters Nero's boasting by expounding on the sentimental joys and wonders of Christmas, of which Nero knows nothing. This touches Nero's heart and causes him to repent of his evil purpose and ask how he can help Santa. Santa then showers Nero with hospitality, and runs to get a present for him: a Stradivarius violin. Santa also gives him a piece of sheet music, and the play closes with Nero playing The First Noel on the Stradivarius.

Conception and early productions
In 1938, Norman Corwin was hired by the CBS Radio Network and given his own show, Norman Corwin's Words Without Music. After the show on the week before Christmas, his producer put him on the spot by asking him what he intended to do for a Christmas show. Corwin came up with the title off the top of his head. This constrained his writing, but gave him the opening line: "Did you hear about the plot to overthrow Christmas?" The play was first broadcast on December 25. By 1940, Corwin was leading CBS's Columbia Workshop, and he again produced The Plot to Overthrow Christmas on December 22 of that year. CBS had Corwin produce and direct the play a third time on December 19, 1944, with most of the original cast, which included Will Geer as Mephistopheles. Santa Claus was played by House Jameson, and Nero was played by black stage and radio actor Eric Burroughs. Henry Morgan appeared in the 1944 broadcast as the narrator, as Ivan the Terrible, and Simon Legree.  Corwin called Burroughs "the finest Negro actor in radio" after his 1936 appearance in Orson Welles' Federal Theatre production of Macbeth. Jameson later appeared in supporting roles in the 1948 film The Naked City and in nine episodes of its television series adaptation between 1959 and 1963.

In 1960, Corwin collaborated with composer Walter Scharf to turn the play into an opera, for which he provided the libretto. However, Corwin and Scharf could not agree on business terms, and the opera remained only in manuscript form. It was performed only once, in 2000 at Brigham Young University.

Recreation on public television
In 1969, Los Angeles public television station KCET produced a program about Corwin's play, which included an interview with Corwin about the play's origin, and a rehearsal and television reading of the play. The show was rebroadcast on PBS on December 23, 1971, as an episode of Hollywood Television Theatre. KCET rebroadcast the program in 2010 (about a year before Corwin's death) in honor of his 100th birthday, and followed it with a new interview with Corwin.

Corwin added two scenes to his original script for the TV production. On his way to the North Pole, Nero encounters a reporter who attempts to poll him on his opinions of classical composers and conductors. He also briefly encounters a woman speaking a strange-sounding language; Corwin decided to add this after hearing an extra cast as one of the demons imitate the sound of a tape being rewound.

Cast
Corwin cast several contemporary veteran radio and television character actors for his 1969 television production.

John McIntire as the Devil; McIntire was a character actor known from his starring role in the television series Wagon Train from 1961 to 1965.
Karl Swenson as Nero; Swenson was a veteran film and television character actor, best known as Lars Hanson from 1974 to 1978 on television's Little House on the Prairie.
Jeanette Nolan as Lucrezia Borgia; Nolan, a radio, film and television actress, was the wife of McIntire.
Parley Baer as Simon Legree; Baer was a radio and television character actor known as the next-door neighbor on The Adventures of Ozzie and Harriet and as the mayor of Mayberry on The Andy Griffith Show.
Edward Platt as Sotto Voce; Platt was known as Maxwell Smart's boss on the 1960s TV series Get Smart.
Alan Reed, Sr. as Santa Claus; Reed was famous as the original voice of Fred Flintstone in the 1960s TV series The Flintstones.
Jerry Hausner as the courier; Hausner appeared on I Love Lucy as the agent of Ricky Ricardo (Desi Arnaz), and as the voice of cartoon character Mr. Magoo's nephew Waldo.
 Paul Condylis as Haman and the Announcer.  He played roles in "What's Up, Doc?", and "Targets".
 Henry Corden as Ivan the Terrible; Corden was best known for taking over the voice of Fred Flintstone when Reed died in 1977.
 Byron Kane as the Reporter; made 43 appearances on TV shows and movies.
 Steve Franken as Caligula; Franken appeared numerous times on TV and film.

A localised version of the play was rehearsed, performed and recorded live on November 27, 2022 at the Malachi Gilmore Memorial Hall (built 1937) in the town of Oberon, New South Wales, Australia.

Coptic Orthodox Church confirms mob attack on Christians in Upper Egyptian village
Ahram Online , Thursday 26 May 2016
Christians' homes were burned and an elderly woman was stripped naked in public by a mob of Muslims angered by a rumoured affair between her son and a Muslim woman
A photo released on Thursday by Diocese of Minya and Abu Qirqas showing the old lady , who is a victim of the mob attack on Friday meeting with the Priests of the Diocese (Photo: Diocese of Minay and Abu Qirqas)

Egypt court bans demolition of churches
The Coptic Orthodox Coptic Church said in a statement on Wednesday that a mob attacked Christian homes in a village in Minya last Friday, and stripped an older Christian woman of her clothes during the assault.
"A group of 300 people carrying various types of weapons went at 8pm on 20 May to attack seven houses owned by Christians, burgling some of them and torching others," said the statement, estimating the financial losses at EGP 350,000.
"The attackers also stripped an old Christian woman of her clothes in front of a huge crowd in the street," read the statement, which was issued by the diocese of Minya and Abu Qirqas.
The sectarian attack in the village of El-Karm followed a rumour that a Muslim woman and a Christian man were involved in an affair, according to the statement.
The woman attacked and stripped naked was the accused man's mother, the statement added.
The incident was first reported on social media and by activists several days ago.
The Christian man who was the subject of the rumours has been forced to leave the village after receiving threats.
"His parents already filed a complaint at Abu Qirqas police station about receiving threats on 19 May and that they expected those threats to happen the next day," read the church's statement, adding that the man's family had reported the incident to the authorities.
According to the church, security forces reached the area at 10pm on Thursday, arresting six people who are under investigation.
"We trust that such behaviour is not accepted by any respectable person; we also trust that the state apparatuses won't stand by as a spectator and thus we thank in advance the security apparatuses as we believe it will all arrest all those involved and hold them accountable," read the church's statement.
The governor of Minya, Tarek Nasr, however, denied in a TV interview with anchor Ahmed Moussa on Sada El-Balad Wednesday night that the woman was stripped naked, describing the whole incident as a "regular" fight. Nasr also blamed the Muslim Brotherhood for "exploiting" the incident and spreading rumours.
The governor confirmed that the sectarian tension in the village was caused by a rumour about a Christian man having an affair with a Muslim woman, adding that questions of love affairs and honour in Upper Egypt are usually "sensitive" issues.
"Some irrational youth threw flammable missiles at the houses of Christians in the village and some women ran away in their nightgowns," Nasser said denying that an a older was stripped naked and insisting that the matter has been resolved.
Similar sectarian-motivated attacks on Christians have taken place in Minya and other parts of Egypt in the past several years.
Many social media users reacted angrily to the news of the incident, with some launching a hashtag in Arabic which reads "Egypt is stripped naked."
Social media users demanded legal action from the authorities, criticising the government's reliance on customary conflict resolution and reconciliation assemblies which are regularly held by religious and community leaders to resolve sectarian tensions among Muslims and Christians in an extra-legal manner in Egyptian villages.
These sessions have often been criticised by both Muslims and Christians for being an inadequate, informal means of resolving conflicts that require government intervention.

Der MAN ND 202 ist ein Niederflur-Doppeldeckerbus des Nutzfahrzeugherstellers MAN (Fahrwerkskomponenten) und ABB Henschel (ehemalige Waggon Union, Aufbau), der in Berlin als Stadtlinienbus eingesetzt wurde.

Nachdem 1992 die Produktion des Doppeldeckertyps MAN SD 202 eingestellt wurde, suchten die Berliner Verkehrsbetriebe (BVG) nach einem Nachfolgemodell. Dieses sollte insbesondere in Niederflur-Bauweise ausgeführt sein.

1994 lieferten MAN und ABB Henschel den Prototyp (Wagennummer 3000) des als ND 202 bezeichneten neuen Doppeldeckerbusses. Es war nicht nur der erste Niederflur-Doppeldeckerbus für den Stadtverkehr, er verfügte auch über weitere Neuerungen, darunter eine dritte Innenschwenktür hinter der Hinterachse, zusätzliche Fahrgastinformationssysteme in Form von Flüssigkristallanzeigen, einen Fahrzeugaufbau aus Aluminium und eine Lackierung in den damals neuen BVG-Farben (Sonnengelb mit weißem Dach und grauer Schürze). Die (Abgangs-)Treppe vom Oberdeck nach unten zur dritten Tür wurde im Heck über dem Motor platziert.

Nach intensiver Erprobung auf mehreren Linien und Fahrgastbefragungen zum neuen Modell erfolgte 1995 die Serienlieferung von lediglich 86 Fahrzeugen. Auffälligste Änderungen im Außenbereich zum Prototyp waren der Wegfall des letzten Fensters im Unterdeck auf der linken Seite sowie ein neues Design des Kaltluft-Ansauggitters auf der rechten Seite.

Nachteilig war die größere Höhe von 4,12 m gegenüber 4,06 m der anderen Doppeldeckertypen. Dies führte zu Einschränkungen im Linieneinsatz. Als störend empfanden viele Fahrgäste die verhältnismäßig lauten Motorgeräusche insbesondere im Unterdeck. Dort waren im Heck der auch im MAN NL 202 verwendete Dieselmotor mit 157 kW (213 PS) und ein Voith-Automatikgetriebe untergebracht.

An den meisten Fahrzeugen wurde später der MAN-Schriftzug zwischen den Frontscheinwerfern entfernt, dieser Bereich trug nun eine gelbe Lackierung mit einem stilisierten Brandenburger Tor.

Bis zur Einführung des Nachfolgers Lion's City DD im Jahr 2004 war der ND 202 der modernste Doppeldeckbus der BVG.

Nach der Auslieferung der Serie DL09 der Lion's City DD im Jahr 2009 sind die DN entbehrlich geworden. Letzter Betriebstag der alten Fahrzeuge war der 12. Februar 2010.

Inzwischen wird auch dieser Doppeldeckerbustyp als Stadtrundfahrtbus in verschiedenen Städten benutzt. Im Dezember 2015 erfolgte testweise der Einsatz eines museal bei der Traditionsbus GmbH Berlin erhaltenen Fahrzeugs dieses Typs durch die Nahverkehrsgesellschaft traffiQ in Frankfurt am Main zur Ermittlung der Akzeptanz bei den Fahrgästen. Dieser und weitere Tests 2016 mit dem Typ MAN Lion's City DD A39 sollten der Überprüfung dienen, ob in Zukunft wieder (wie bereits von 1967 bis 1976) Doppeldeckerbusse zur Kapazitätssteigerung auf bestimmten Linien in Frankfurt eingesetzt werden könnten, auf denen der Einsatz von Gelenkbussen aus Platzgründen nicht in Frage kam.

WHO, WHEN, WHERE. What and Why is How the Media Produces #FakeNews
I'm sure many of you have heard countless so-called journalists, editors, pundits and commentators repeat that the news comes down to the "who, what, where, when, and why". While that sounds reasonable and is easily recitable, it's wrong, in fact that's how the media effectively blurs the line between news and their elitist, superior opinion.
The 5Ws of journalism
Note how a journalism professor talks about the "5Ws", clearly can't explain the "why" and throws in an H that includes "opinions".
In reality, the news should only be about the "who, where, and when", despite how it's being commonly taught and practiced.
You need to know who the news story is about. No brainer.
You need to know where a news incident occurred. Again, a no brainer.
It can make a difference if the reader knows when an incident occurred for timeline context and follow-ups.
Now here's where things can become blurry, intentionally or not.
If you already know the "who, where and when" then determining "what" happened is only something one would know if they were actually there to witness the incident. "What" denotes a narrative that can only be composed in speculation, again, if you weren't there as a witness.
This becomes dangerous if whomever is reporting has an agenda, personal or activist. The "what" can include adjectives that can either elevate or denigrate a subject, thus leading the consumer to a conclusion which shouldn't be the role or a true journalist.
If you competently explain where something happened, when it happened, and who it might've happened to, that should let someone with reasonable intelligence deduce "what" may have happened.
Again, unless the reporter witnessed the incident, determining why something happened is pure speculation.
Even if a news story includes the quotes of eyewitnesses, said reporter is left in that murky zone where the word of a spectator is either considered credible or not. There have been many stories over the years that have had to be retracted because witnesses either embellished or outright lied about what they claimed to have either seen or what they claimed happened to them.
Certain witnesses who spoke before the grand jury investigating the Aug. 9 shooting of Michael Brown told obvious lies under oath, St. Louis Prosecuting Attorney Robert McCulloch said Friday.
— St. Louis Post Dispatch, 12/19/14
That's why news organizations need to be very careful upon who they quote; not give any kind of certification on that person's integrity and remind the news consumer that this is a witness account and not the definitive on what actually happened just because they said so.
If you competently explain where something happened, when it happened, and who it might've happened to, that should again let someone with reasonable intelligence deduce "why" it happened.
If a journalist wasn't there to witness the incident in question, he or she can't honestly report on "how" something happened unless that person speculates or totally believes as truth the word of witnesses.
Back in the day, any reporter handing a story to an editor with sources whose quotes couldn't be verified was as essentially handing in a resignation letter.
The most important professional possession of journalists is credibility. If the news consumers don't have faith that the stories they are reading or watching are accurate and fair, if they suspect information attributed to an anonymous source has been made up, then the journalists are as useful as a parka at the equator.
— Society of Professional Journalists
Editors understood that people exaggerate and sometimes lie and to publish mistruths could open up a newspaper or television station to legal action, not to mention a loss of credibility. With that, you can understand the look a reporter would get from an editor after receiving a story with anonymous sources.
The media should be in the business of distributing the news. Commentary is a separate entity.
But you can see that the "what", "why" and "how" can be considered pure speculation that has no business in a news story. That is, if it is all about the true dissemination of news. If an agenda is something a news organization wishes to distribute, you'll receive misleading news stories, not to mention hours-upon-hours of so-called journalists and self-important pundits on cable news and radio telling you "what" they think and "why" you need to see and repeat things their way.
"Who, what, where, when and why" can apply to many other intellectual exercises but it shouldn't apply to journalism.

Home News Interchange 2023 Events Announced!
by Patrick Wagner January 11, 2023
written by Patrick Wagner January 11, 2023
Marijuana Venture is gearing up for 2023 with its largest schedule of Interchange events to date. There will be four Interchange events in Washington, with the first two at the Renton Pavilion in Renton on March 1-2 and May 23-24. The series will then head east for a Spokane event in August before returning to Western Washington on November 7-8.
The Washington events feature about 50 of the state's top cannabis retailers and 60 producers, processors and ancillary businesses participating in two days of uninterrupted sales meetings. The events typically sell out quickly, so now is the time for companies to book their space.
Interchange will also return to the DoubleTree in Downtown Portland, Oregon, on March 15-16 and September 20-21.
Michigan businesses can look forward to two Interchange events this year at the Eagle Eye Golf Club in Bath, first on May 17-18, and then on October 18-19. The inaugural Michigan Interchange saw more than 80 leading cannabis companies meeting for two days' worth of speed networking and the events are expected to grow substantially in 2023.
Best described as "speed dating for the cannabis industry," Interchange is a private, two-day business event where state-licensed producers and processors meet with dozens of verified retail buyers to connect with new clients, open new accounts and promote new products, and manage existing relationships in a business-only environment.

Medical and nursing students in Oulu welcome the digitalisation of health care
Medical and nursing students who have received training in electronic health care tools and services (eHealth) have positive attitudes towards the utilisation of health technology and digitalisation in health care. There were no major differences in attitudes between nursing and medical students.
Digitalisation is rapidly changing the health care sector and its practices. This increases the need to improve the digital competence of healthcare professionals.
The attitudes of students in the field towards digital health and their skills in using technology were surveyed in spring 2021. 64 nursing students from Oulu University of Applied Sciences and 106 medical students from the University of Oulu responded to the survey.
'The differences in attitudes towards health care digitalisation were surprisingly small between the two respondent groups. Based on the results, it seems promising that, in the future, the teaching of eHealth and telemedicine provided to both physicians and nurses could be further harmonised,' says the editor of the article published on the study, coordinator and health centre physician, MD and MSc (Tech) Paula Veikkolainen from the University of Oulu's Research Unit of Medical Imaging, Physics and Technology.
eHealth education for health care students has been organised in Oulu since 2016. Since 2020, the education has been adapted to better correspond to the contents produced in the national MEDigi project. The project has identified 12 key content areas of eHealth education in which new professionals in the field should be trained.
Based on the results of the survey, the students not only view eHealth positively, but also assess their own skills in applying it as good. Digital technologies were considered to improve treatment practices and outcomes and increase patients' commitment to their own care.
Digitalisation is expected to increase the participation of patients in their own care. According to the survey, there were differences in attitudes towards the change between nursing and medical students. Nurses are more prepared to support patient participation, while medical students have more reservations about it.
'The difference may spring from the fact that nurses' studies involve a great deal of patient guidance and training, while medical studies focus on diagnostics and symptom treatment. The difference between the roles of these two professional groups is also visible in working life,' says Veikkolainen.
So far, very little research has been conducted on the attitudes of health care students towards eHealth and health care digitalisation. Based on studies conducted in different countries, attitudes vary. According to Veikkolainen, the results of the study can be utilised in the development of national education in the field.
The study has been published in the leading publication series International Journal of Medical Informatics.

Benefits, Indications: White sage may soothe burns, mouth sores and insect bites while keeping them clean so the body can heal them. It also keeps the skin supple so the scars that result are less noticeable.
This oil will tonify or strengthen the body and mind with an overall cooling effect. White sage is the main herb in smudge sticks used by many Native American traditions. Some Native American peoples burned white sage in sweat lodges for purification. Burning the leaves of white sage is also used to fumigate a home or dwelling after a contagion and to purify the air during and after illness.
Stress relieving and calming, this oil helps to minimize anxious thoughts and dispel fears. It also is useful for soothing strong emotional reactions and providing more balanced, rational thinking.
White is sage used to support the body during times of respiratory system distress. Skin toner. Purifier. Excellent in home cleaning. It can be diffused to purify room environments, or a drop can be rubbed on the hands to disinfect and clear energy between clients. Although there is very little data on White Sage essential oil, herbalist Michael Moore notes that the diterpenes in the oil address a wide range of microbes, while the balance of potent aromatics maximizes penetration, increasing efficacy of the oil's beneficial actions.
White sage may be useful for women who need to regulate female hormones. Applied topically (diluted) to the abdomen or the bottoms of the feet, it may help minimize PMS symptoms, reduce painful periods, and balance hormones related to menopause.

Q: Code explanation Scrolltop Can someone please explain what this code does.. Like the 'split' function etc.
$("button").click(function() {
    var id=this.id.split('[');
    var d_id=id[1].split(']')
    var ii=d_id[0]
    $('html, body').animate({
        scrollTop: $('[id='+ii+']').offset().top
    }, 2000);
});

A: *

*It attaches a click eventhandler to every <button> tag.

*In the handler it extracts the "foo" from the button's id attribute if it is for example "bar[foo]".

*It animates a page scroll to the postition of the element with the "foo" id (the "[id=...]" jQuery selector).

The string.split is a string function which splits the string into an array based on the given separator, here "[" and then "]", check the documentation.
Briefly, the offset() jQuery function returns the top and left pixel coordinates of the first element matched by the given selector, check the documentation.
So as a result, when you click a <button> with id "bar[foo]", the page will do an animated vertical scroll so that the element with id "foo" will be at the top or the window.

While planning for your wedding there is an seemingly endless number of decisions that need to be made. The possibilities are endless, which can make the task of choosing what will work best for your wedding a difficult decision. And then there are the decisions that you have never even considered or never thought you would be in a position to have to make. Once engaged, many couples discover they have two different visions for what they want in a wedding. One wants a large, grand wedding and the other wants a small, intimate affair. How do you combine two visions into one event? Compromise!
Finding your wedding style can ease the process. First, find out what you both like. Often by examining both versions of the ideal wedding you will find common desires. Do you both want to be married in a church, or would you prefer an outdoor wedding? Do you both love certain colors? Is there a song that is "your song"? Make a list of everything you both want. If an issue arises that you begin to disagree upon set the issue aside. Move on. Planning a wedding doesn't have to be stressful. One way to ease the decision making process is to hire a wedding planner. The wedding planner can act as an intermediary. Helping to draw out what you both want and create an event that will satisfy both families.
After uncovering the commonalities in your vision for the wedding, asking yourself the following questions will aid in discovering your wedding style.
1. How big is your wedding going to be? First make a list of the people who you can't imagine not attending your wedding. Sometimes an intimate wedding is just impractical. A small wedding is typically less than 100 guests, a medium wedding generally consists of up to 200 guests and more than 200 guests is considered a large wedding.
2. What time of year do you want to get married? If you are planning for a short engagement, often season is less of a consideration. Typically a wedding takes between 10 – 12 months to plan and coordinate. Choosing which season you want to get married in often impacts the style you choose for your wedding, so deciding on a season can help your decision making process.
3. What time of day do you want to have the wedding? The time of day that you get married lends to the overall style of the wedding. Having your wedding at sunset can be beautiful and romantic. Holding your ceremony in the morning can be a money saving option and tends to be a little less formal than an evening wedding. An evening wedding tends to be the most formal. For an outdoor wedding planning an afternoon wedding is practical, unless you plan to arrange for lighting.
4. Who is paying for the wedding? You and your fiance, the Bride's parents, the groom's parents, or a combination of the above? Who pays for the wedding can greatly impact the decision making process.
5. What is the budget? Money is usually always a deciding factor. Deciding where to spend it is important. Avoid stress by setting a realistic budget and sticking to it.
6. Location: Where are you going to have the ceremony and reception? Will it be local, a destination wedding, in a church, outdoors, a hotel, or private residence? Location is essential to your wedding style.
Once you have answered these questions you are ready to talk about your wedding style. Do you want a traditional or nontraditional wedding? Do you want a formal or relaxed affair? Do you want your wedding to be elegant and elaborate or a fun and simple event?
Choose a color scheme. The colors you choose to incorporate into your wedding can be fun, elegant, classy or chic. Your color scheme should be representative of the style you have chosen for your wedding.
Invitations: Your invitations are a representation of the style and theme of your wedding. It sets the mood for your wedding and conveys to your guests whether your wedding will be a formal event or an intimate affair. Your invitation creates anticipation for your upcoming nuptials. Having your invitation custom designed allows you to create an invitation that is truly yours. The Classic Invitation offers invitations custom designed specifically for your event. You choose the theme, the design, the colors and the papers for your invitation. Contact The Classic Invitation at http://theclassicinvitation.com for a free consultation.

Yet another great article. Would it be possible to add this to the wedding directory like the last one?
That's really the key, isn't it? Setting your wedding budget and then STICKING to it is hard when you keep seeing cool stuff that you "need" to have and when you have all your friends telling you to get this and that.

A few months after the death of Richelieu, Louis Xlll died, leaving his five-year-old son Louis XIV to reign for seventy-two years, first under the control of Mazarin, and then as the king dish really. With his succession and under the unbreaking influence of his long reign all the arts flourished to an extraordinary degree. Le Roy Soldi has been determined with the beauty and state unknown since the days of the Roman Empire. Colbert, his talented manager, gathered famous artists and craftsmen together and placed them in the Louvre as royalty.
Early in his reign, the King decided to make his court the best in all of Europe and make France the center of culture of the modern world. no. To achieve this goal he appointed Le Brun his Minister of Fine Arts. Le Brun took many of the best companies in France, put them under government control and supported them with state money.
Among these are the Gobelins, Beauvais, Aubusson and Savonnerie looms where tapestries and floor coverings are often placed in front of the furnace, and the Sevres porcelain factory. He also founded the National School of Fine Arts (Ecole des Beaux Arts) which is still under the control of the French government and which receives students from all over the world, offering free tuition in architecture, painting, sculpture and engraving.
Jules Mansart was appointed as the royal architect and commissioned to build the palace of Versailles, one of the most beautiful and grandest palaces ever built. The cost of this model alone was so expensive that it is said to have sown the seeds of the French Revolution.
The palace was prepared not only to provide services to the king, but the large rooms were prepared to entertain thousands of people in the most beautiful way. Although the house was practically stripped of all its furniture during the revolution and has undergone many changes since then, enough of its original decoration still remains to make it comparable limited best of the time of Louis XIV.
The best characteristic of the interior architecture of this style is the large size of the rooms themselves and the size of the architectural detail and furniture that is in them, right to the bar rails. The orders were used extensively and the classical proportions were strictly followed, although the ornamentation was very old.
Paneling was large and strong. The main structure of the panels is straight and rectangular, but many ornaments are used. A dado usually runs around the room, the panels above it run to an ornate cornice. As a rule, the colors used are earthenware and gilt moldings although natural oak and other painted colors have also been employed.
Wood carving was used a lot. The fireplace is clear, the opening and the fireplace are well-maintained. Over-mantels include paintings, and in small rooms mirrors. The doors were paneled, carved, painted and gilded. Floors are parquet or marble tiling and ceilings are usually flat in small rooms.
Le Brun was chosen as the head designer for the King, Boulle (also spelled Boule and Buhl), which is the unique possibility that Chippendale had a greater influence on the development of furniture than like other men. Boulle is known for the popular use of metal mounts (Ormolu) in the ornamentation of furniture. It is also famous for its use of tortoise shell and metal inlay. By cutting two layers of tortoise shell and sheet metal in an elaborate jig-saw pattern, he alternated the metal and the shell in applying it as veneer for the doors and panels of his cabinet furniture.
Boulle uses a variety of wood. Ebony is one of his favorites, but oak, walnut, tulip, rosette ten blocks, rosewood, and other more expensive woods are also used. Many of his students later became successful producers. Among them were Levasseur, Jacob, and Oeben. The furniture of this time is according to the law and in the main rectangular line predominated. Most chairs are supported heavily on legs.
Later the furniture became curvilinear in both patterns and ornaments. It was elaborately carved, painted, and gilded, with small pied-de-biche, dolphin heads, scrolled, round, or square feet. The furniture is plentiful, the canape, commode, armoire and escritoire are well designed. Superb Aubusson tapestry, embroidery, needle, damask, large velvets, leather and caning were used. Metal mounts are works of art in brass or ormolu. Everything is formal, stately and sumptuous.

When was the awakening in your soul?
And whatever relationship there is between our souls and Christ, He is the one who initiates the dialogue. He asks, what seek ye? Our hearts, minds and souls call out: We seek You! Are you calling to me? This lonely, forgotten person – this wretched sinner? Oh, how we need the Living Water to wash over our broken lives and hopeless conditions! Can He take our guilt and sin away? We seek wholeness, joy, contentment. We seek to have a meaningful life; that our lives count. God's Grace answers the desires of our hearts through Jesus.
We want to know where Jesus is, where we can find Him. The disciples asked where he was dwelling – Come and See: He invites us come to Him without delay. What a gift to follow Jesus; how precious the time we spend with Him.
In our spiritual strengthening we seek after Jesus, to be like Him and be in relationship with Him. We come to Him as sinners, knowing that He alone has the power to save.
It is important to note that the disciples began to follow Him after they had heard Him. How do we bring the Good News of the Gospel to the "hearing" of those who do not yet know HIM? We need to be concerned for the spiritual welfare of those we meet in our day and seek to bring them to Him. It is by His Grace that they will hear "What Seek Ye"? And respond to His invitation to "Come and See".
May our lives reflect Christ's invitation to us all, Come and See!


Whether it is an on premises, cloud or a hybrid data warehouse, WhereScape RED is a complete data warehouse life-cycle management tool.
With many businesses looking to move from on premises data warehouse environments to the cloud, the necessity for a comprehensive data warehouse automation tool which spans both is becoming clear.
With WhereScape RED, making the transition is easy. Not only is the environment in which developers work the same whether it is an on premises, cloud or indeed a hybrid data warehouse, but RED manages the transition, too. That's just one aspect of what makes RED a complete data warehouse life-cycle management tool.
Where some confusion can come into play is when RED is compared with other tools used to build data warehouses; common ones which crop up include SSIS (SQL Integration Service), Informatica, Talend and Data Factory. Without taking anything away from these products, as they can in fact be used very successfully alongside a RED Data Warehouse, the major difference is that these are essentially ETL tools only.
They are primarily built for moving data, that's their core function.
None of these alternate Data Warehousing tools you're likely to encounter are designed specifically for creating, testing, deploying and managing an entire data warehouse environment, whether on premises, in the cloud or the increasingly popular option of a hybrid between both.
That's a problem because while manipulating and moving data is undoubtedly a part of the process of creating and running a data warehouse, it's only one of the components of the entire process. And by itself ETL isn't going to deliver much value without a whole lot of other goodness.
More important by far is the transformation, workflow, deployment, documentation, impact analysis and source control.
Check out the below diagram. This shows all the steps involved in the creation and operation of a data warehouse, complete with the multiple tools you'll need at every phase. Every time you switch from one tool to another, it means more skills and experience are necessary in staff members. They have to become proficient in at least six different tool-sets. This also means you'll have to purchase, license and maintain relationships with six vendors, an overhead which is worth noting.
It even automates the production of documentation so you can easily keep track of data lineage.
Whether you're giving a cloud data warehouse a crack for the first time, moving en masse into the cloud, operating a hybrid setup or even if you're sticking with on premise, RED will do the lot for you.
In effect, WhereScape RED enhances the productivity of your development team, with one developer producing what would have previously taken a small team.
There are other benefits to having everything managed in one tool, the most significant being supportability. If you're manually managing the data warehouse life-cycle process across five different tools, what happens when one changes? With RED that process is managed for you and the transition between steps isn't something you have to worry about any more.
The bottom line is simple. If you're looking to capitalise on the new possibilities offered by cloud data warehousing, you don't want to be wasting your time on simple life-cycle management tasks using five different tools. Use one tool that's built for purpose – WhereScape RED.

Q: Reshaping array I need to transform the arrays to build a confusion matrix
How can I transform this array
array([5, 2, 8, ..., 1, 2, 2])

so that it looks like this?
array([[5],
   [2],
   [8],
   ...,
   [1],
   [2],
   [2]])

A: >>> array=[5, 2, 8,  1, 2, 2]
>>> [ [x] for x in array]
[[5], [2], [8], [1], [2], [2]]

It can be done with List Comprehension

A: In [1009]: arr = np.arange(4)
In [1010]: arr
Out[1010]: array([0, 1, 2, 3])

As your title says:
In [1011]: arr1 = arr.reshape(4,1)
In [1012]: arr1
Out[1012]:
array([[0],
       [1],
       [2],
       [3]])

Another idiomatic way of adding a dimension:
In [1013]: arr1 = arr[:,None]     # or with np.newaxis
In [1014]: arr1
Out[1014]:
array([[0],
       [1],
       [2],
       [3]])
In [1015]: arr.shape
Out[1015]: (4,)
In [1016]: arr1.shape
Out[1016]: (4, 1)


East Point - Earlier this week, Crandall Jones who was up until December 19th the East Point City Manager, released a letter of separation stating he would no longer function as City Manager.
In the letter he gives a statement on being "amiably terminated" by the East Point City Council and goes on to thank the community for which he served.
Tonight, the East Point City Council amiably terminated my agreement with the City. While it is difficult to part with a community of which I have grown fond and have taken stewardship, I have accomplished all that I set out to do in the City of East Point—most importantly, leaving the City in much better condition than when I arrived. Coming on board at the beginning of Fiscal Year 2008, we found the City on the brink of insolvency—having operated almost $11 million in deficit, with minimal cash on hand and having been out of audit compliance since 2004. I am proud to leave the city fully in the black, out of deficit and having operated in the black in each year of my 4 ½ years of service. Additionally, we are now in full audit compliance. By every legitimate public and private sector measure of financial management and fiscal accountability, the City of East Point is more financially sound that it has been in more than a decade.
