Lucila J. Sarsines Reyes (July 19, 1936 – October 31, 1973), was a Peruvian performer and one of the most respected singers of her country, one of Peru's most famous Afro-Peruvian personalities as well as a symbol of Peruvian nationalism both in Peru and to expatriates. She was also known by the pseudonyms "La Morena de Oro del Perú", given to her by Augusto Ferrando, and "La Reina de la Popularidad". She is well known for her voice and her music has gone through history as some of the best in the history of Peruvian music.

History

Born to a poor family in the capital, Lima, Reyes was one of sixteen siblings.  Her father, Tobias Sarsines, died after she turned six months old.  Reyes spent much of her childhood living away from her immediate family. She sold newspapers and lottery tickets to survive. Her house burned down, and she went on to live at a Catholic church.

As a child, Reyes met Pitito Perez, a famous Peruvian singer of the era. Perez liked her voice and invited her to join him in a duo. The duo was named Lucha y Juan. The duo gave Reyes the opportunity to be heard on national radio stations.  Lucha Reyes debuted in a show named El Sentir de los Barrios (or "The way the Barrio/People Feel") singing the cultural standard "Abandonada" of Sixto Carrera, a song with lyrics that resembled her own experiences on the streets. She eventually joined the controversial music group Peña Ferrando of Augusto Ferrando (1919-1999).

Lucha Reyes was briefly married to a policeman.

Art

Reyes acted sporadically in theater plays around Lima and would later go on to act in a movie named Una Carta al Cielo ("A Letter to Heaven") of Salvador Oda, about a boy whose dead mother (voiced-over by Reyes) would speak to him. Lucha performed in various acts, living on art in a bohemian style, and produced music favored by the military nationalist government, who encouraged the diffusion of the Peruvian cultural expressions through mass media.

In 1970, helped by Nilo Marchand, manager of the record label FTA (Fabricantes Te'cnicos Asociados), Reyes recorded her greatest success, "Regresa" ("Come Back") of Augusto Polo Campos, a number one international hit.  On the success of "Regresa," Reyes recorded her first LP and, soon after, began her only international tour.

Last days

She was diagnosed with tuberculosis and diabetes. The diabetes left her blind. She had cardiac complications and alcoholism.

Lucha Reyes asked composer Pedro Pacheco to write "Mi Última Canción" ("My Last Song"). On October 30, 1973, one day before her death, she sang "My Last Song" at a well-known local radio broadcasting station. On the following day, October 31, 1973, Lucha Reyes, "La Morena de Oro del Perú" (Peru's Black Woman of Gold) died. She is buried in the "Cemetery the Angel" in Lima.

Legacy

Lucha Reyes and the ensemble Los Morochucos made a name for black performers among the leading interpreters of the vals criollo and marinera genres. The vals criollo derives from the Viennese waltz. The music is not originally Afro-Peruvian, but was converted by phrasing lyrics and playing the vals criollo with slightly off-beat accents. The addition of the cajón to the traditional instrumentation of two guitars served to give the vals an Afro-Peruvian dimension. Marinera songs honor the sailors who fought in the war with Chile and are played with two guitars, a cajón, and accompanied by hand clapping.

Songs such as "¿Qué Importa?" of Juan Mosto ("What Does It Matter?"), with lyrics like " yet another failure is but a drop of water in the ocean for me " were made famous by Lucha Reyes. Her songs were rich with Peruvian Nationalism and criollo pride. Today, October 31, the same day of her death, is the "Día de la Canción Criolla" (Day of the Creole Song) and is celebrated in Peru every year.

On July 19, 2019, Google showed a Doodle celebrating what would have been her 83rd birthday.

I could sense her anticipation as she inched her pint-sized frame toward the open door. What excitement lay beyond? Dark and mysterious, the shadowy edges called to her. It was the perfect place to explore. Her pace hastened. She could hold back no longer. But just on the cusp of having her curiosity satisfied, she was stopped in her tracks.
Quickly whisking her away, I squeezed the roly-poly ball of joy about to open the cupboard door where dirty diapers, raw meat wrappers, jagged-edged cans, and a myriad of other dangers lurked in the garbage can. With a "That's yucky, Honey. You don't want that," I redirected her to a safer, more appropriate place to play.
Watching my fourth baby explore her world is much the same as it was with my other three. Baby gyms, board books, toys that sing, flash, and dance are theirs in abundance, but it seems they're always inching toward what's off limits. I give them a ball; they grab a pencil. I set them on a playmat; they crawl to the bookshelf. I put them in the high chair; they climb on the counter. Even as I type this, she is sitting on my lap with an old keyboard identical to the one I am typing on. It takes approximately 20 seconds for her to start reaching for the one I'm using. In another second, it's the mouse and then my coffee cup. What she desperately whined for two minutes ago no longer satisfies, and she is on to the next thing.
With each child, the story is the same. I offer what's good, safe, and right, and they pass it over for something they think is better.
Scripture offers example after example of people who passed over the good, safe, and right that God had put in front of them for something they thought was better.
King David had a thriving kingdom—riches, wives, children, intimacy with God—but he wanted Bathsheba.
The Israelites had the promise of prosperity, victory, and the presence of God, but they wanted idols.
Esau had an incredible inheritance, but he wanted a bowl of soup.
Adam and Eve had perfection, unimaginable beauty, harmony with one another, and God's intimate, face-to-face friendship; they wanted a piece of fruit.
What is it about human nature that draws us toward what we can't have? I don't know if I'll ever understand it, but I've discovered a few ways to help combat this tendency in our lives.
Reframe. Reframe the thing that looks so tempting as what it truly is: a trap to bind us, make us suffer, and ultimately destroy us. Second Corinthians 11:14 tells us that Satan masquerades as an angel of light. I always thought this meant that if I ever saw him, he'd be a beautifully disguised angel, until I realized his masquerade is making hideous sin look delicious. That thing we want looks like it'll make us feel good and be the answer to our problems, when it is actually well-disguised trash intended for our demise.
Remember. Remember the consequences faced by people in scripture who thought they knew better than God. King David's son died, the Israelites were exiled, Esau forfeited his inheritance and Adam and Eve had to leave paradise, toiling in their work and experiencing heartbreak. God will always forgive us when we repent, but some consequences are so devastating that they last a lifetime. God will grieve with us over what's been lost, but while sin can be removed, its effects often remain.
Memorize Scripture. Jesus used the Word of God as his weapon against the enemy. Memorizing, praying, and meditating on scripture will transform our lives from the inside out. Finding scriptures that specifically apply to our situations and memorizing those will help us when temptations arise.
Our struggle against fleshly desires will never be completely eradicated this side of heaven, but as we practice the principles above, our spirits will be strengthened so we can live an overcoming life of joy.
Don't pass over the good, safe, and right that God has blessed you with, only to find yourself in a trap of the enemy. Don't give in, dear sister. Even if you stumble and fall, get up, press on, and you will reap a harvest with eternal benefits.

A number of years ago I was visiting a friend in the hospital. She was having open-heart surgery. Another friend of mine was there, as well, with his wife. His wife said, "Nick, I used to work for one of your church members." "Really?", I replied. "Who was it?" She told me their name which I easily recognized as a leader in our church.
She went on to say, "I quit just last Friday." I asked why.
She began to describe how hateful this person had been to her. The more she shared, the more I could see how deeply this church member had hurt her, and the more my stomach began to feel sick. I was at a loss for words. There was this awkward, thick silence hanging in the room.
This woman did not attend church anywhere. Neither did the other friends and family members who were standing in the room.
And they listened to every word.
The truth is we are being watched by a curious, lost world that questions if we actually believe what's on our Christian T-Shirts, bumper stickers, and church marquis. They're watching how we treat the trainee at Wal-Mart who just can't seem to work fast enough, what we rent at the video store, and how we respond when we don't get our way.
The lesson of hypocrisy is an old one. But I re-learned it all over again – painfully – that morning during a visit with a friend in the hospital.


We would like to thank Dr. Ren and colleagues for their interest and feedback and appreciate the opportunity to reply. The main limitation of our study (1) is that it is retrospective; therefore, assumptions of cause and effect regarding tricuspid regurgitation (TR) are impossible to make. As a "proof of concept," we used transthoracic echocardiography to evaluate the feasibility of visualizing tricuspid valve leaflet motion and device location in 3 dimensions (3D) as well as the degree of TR. In our single-center study, 3D evaluation of lead location was feasible in 90% of studies and an association did exist between lead position and degree of TR (1).
As opposed to mitral regurgitation, TR lacks standardized recommendations for severity and data for etiology (2). For TR severity assessment, a comprehensive "semiquantitative" approach is recommended due to the lack of standardized reference values (2). Three-dimensional effective regurgitant orifice area and regurgitant fraction may provide more precise volumes; however, they are more difficult to reliably obtain and lack reference values.
Tricuspid valve regurgitation, regardless of the etiology, is associated with high morbidity and mortality. In a study by Nath et al. (3), the investigators showed that significant TR was associated with worse outcomes. In their study (n = 5,223), the severity of TR correlated with worse outcomes, independent of right ventricular size, left ventricular function, or pulmonary artery systolic pressures (3). Furthermore, Lin et al. (4) described device-associated TR requiring cardiac surgery as well as several mechanisms leading to valve malfunction, including adherence, impingement, perforation, or entanglement (4).
Ren et al. have experience with intracardiac echocardiography and should be applauded for their efforts using this imaging modality in clinical practice. This imaging modality may be useful to guide lead placement in the future; however, routine intracardiac echocardiography to guide device placement is not the standard of care and should be considered investigational.
1. Do device leads remain in the same location after insertion?
2. Is guidance of lead location possible? If so, what imaging modality would best guide lead placement (3D transthoracic echocardiography, 2D/3D transesophageal echocardiography, or intracardiac echocardiography)?
Once these questions are answered with randomized, prospective studies, the clinical utility of lead placement under imaging guidance could be determined.

Emilio Sotomayor Baeza was a Chilean general and politician who was the Commander-in-Chief of the Chilean Army from January 4, 1884 to August 22, 1888 as well as a prominent military commander during the War of the Pacific.

Biography
Emilio was the son of farmer Justo Sotomayor y Elzo and Clara Baeza y Ojeda. He was the seventh of 12 sons, among whom Rafael Sotomayor Baeza was one of them. He married Rosa Leighton Frederick.

After entering the Chilean Army in 1845 and in 1846 he was already an officer in the National Guard. On August 17, 1847, before his 22nd birthday, he held the position of Alférez de Artillería.

Although he did not graduate as a student at the , his culture and illustration allowed him to get promotions in his career.

Three years after joining the Army, he was already a lieutenant . With that degree he faced the pipiola revolution in 1851, when Manuel Francisco Montt Torres arrived at the government. Under the command of General Juan Vidaurre-Leal he went to Coquimbo and fought in Petorca and besieged La Serena where he got wounded in the latter which got him promoted to Captain.

He participated in the Chilean Revolution of 1851 against the liberals in the battles of Petorca and in the siege of La Serena. Eight years later he fought in the .

In 1857 he requested retirement from service, but a year later he was appointed commander of the Municipal Guard of Valparaíso, for which he had to request his reincorporation into active service, and was promoted in May of that same year to the rank of major. Under the orders of Vidaurre-Leal, he fought in the battle of Los Loros in 1859 and later in Cerro Grande, against the improvised army of Pedro León Gallo Goyenechea. The same year 1859 he was promoted to lieutenant colonel and in charge of the artillery of Valparaíso. Along with 25 soldiers, he put down a mutiny that killed Vidaurre-Leal who was the mayor of Valparaíso.

In 1865, during the Chincha Islands War, he was appointed intendant of Chiloé. He then fortified the Bay of Ancud with heavy caliber artillery, the Spanish ships did not attack the archipelago in 1866.

In 1869 he was appointed head of the Maestranza de Limache and in 1867, he was appointed honorary president of the Africa Institute based in Paris, France.

He was then made the director of the Escuela Militar del Libertador Bernardo O'Higgins. He was also a founding partner of the Second Fire Company Bomba A. Edwards R. in Valdivia.

He served as proprietary deputy for Castro, Chile from 1870 to 1873, and was a member of the Permanent War and Navy Commission.

In 1872 he traveled to Europe as head of the Military Commission in order to buy weapons, at which time he also took the opportunity to study and perfect himself. The result of the trip was the purchase of 12,000 Comblain II rifles that were the regular weapon of the army during the War of the Pacific .

In 1879 he was sent to occupy the town of Antofagasta during the War of the Pacific. In 1880, he was promoted to Brigadier General and delegated inspector of the Army in operations against Peru and Bolivia. He also participated in the Occupation of Lima, when Chilean troops triumphantly entered the Peruvian capital on January 17, 1881 and served as the first political chief during the occupation. On February 28, he agreed to the position of general in chief due to the absence of General Manuel Baquedano.

In 1856 he entered the Grand Lodge of Chile, where from 1870 he held the position of Venerable Master of the Lodge "Duty and Constancy" No. 7.

He directed the Escuela Militar del Libertador Bernardo O'Higgins in 1868, 1878 and 1880 but in 1888. After more than 40 years of service, he definitively retired from the Army. He died at his home in Santiago on March 17, 1894, as a victim of a strange disease and was buried at the Santiago General Cemetery.

Although more Americans than ever now have access to and can afford health care, many people still avoid regularly seeing a physician. In fact nearly one quarter of the U.S. population does not have a primary care physician. We as dentists see it everyday, someone comes in with tooth pain and when you look at the medical history form they filled out, no physician is listed. In many instances a dentist, often under "emergency" or "tooth pain" circumstances, is the only doctor many people ever see. Although we do not completely understand why so many people avoid regular visits to a doctor, theories include not wanting to be lectured about one's own bad habits, and the fear of learning one has a terrible and/or incurable disease.
With the recent studies clearly indicating the strong correlation between poor oral health and serious systemic disease, is crucial for dentists and their teams to fill in the void for those who do not see physicians. Dentists are not just tooth doctors, good dental offices are health care facilities whose goal is complete wellness of the entire body. Dental teams truly are on the front lines of healthcare, they have an opportunity to spot the warning signs of serious diseases such as heart disease and cancer.
Please check out the link below to an article from the March edition of The Atlantic. It is a very nice piece of writing explaining and illustrating my points above.

A: You just have to add posts: any;
or whatever other type you want to the app.component.ts under post: Post[];
To perform the search you just probably need to change this.post to this.posts in getFilteredExpenseList()
getFilteredExpenseList() {
     if (this.dataService.searchOption.length > 0)
       this.posts = this.dataService.filteredListOptions();
     else {
       this.posts = this.dataService.postsData;
     }
     console.log(this.posts)
   }

Wasted away again in Omicron-aville
Like many raised in the Great Depression tended to hoard their whole lives, many in the COVID era will camp out here and never leave. Plus: defending the bailey, and "Get Back" on Disney+.
The "Omicron" variant has spread from South Africa, via…a Portuguese professional soccer team. The AP reports that 13 members of the Beleneses soccer club tested positive for Omicron after they traveled to South Africa. Dr. Anthony Fauci briefed President Biden on the new variant, then told CNN he needed more data before recommending a travel ban; afterward Biden signed a travel ban, citing Fauci's advice. Now Fauci says Omicron is inevitable: it will "invariably spread all over."
This all goes to show that nobody really knows anything about the future, except that it will be pretty much like this, over and over again.
Photo by ismail mohamed - SoviLe on Unsplash
Omicron will feed the fears of those who are determined to camp out in COVID land forever, with masking, social distance, fear, and blame as their constant companions. It will, at the same time, feed into the crazy conspiracists who claim the entire pandemic was a hoax. Those of us who remain a little concerned, but have the sense to understand the vaccines for what they are, and also possess a basic understanding of the balance between a new variant's spread, and its potential for lethality, are not freaking out.
Let me share my layman's knowledge of how the human body defends against viruses. Haha, no. Instead, watch this video, produced for students by Kurzgesagt. To sum up, our bodies identify viruses by their external features, and vaccines stimulate us to produce antibodies using either deactivated forms of the virus that look like the real thing, or "messenger RNA" that tells our body how to program the antibodies. In either case, the antibodies don't care how lethal or spreadable a virus is, only what it looks like inside your body.
When researchers talk about "mutations" and "transmissibility," they are really talking about how different the virus looks to your immune system, and if it looks different enough, then the vaccines and your existing antibodies will not do the job right away—and you'll get sick. It also means while the virus is multiplying inside you, you'll be contagious and spread it to others. This is the basic worry about all COVID-19 variants.
It is also the basic worry about every strain of flu that hits annually, and any other virus floating around the world. The thing about flu strains and COVID variants is that they do tend to mutate a lot, which makes it hard to focus on one vaccine to end them. This is why you are encouraged to get annual flu shots. The problem with COVID is that it has shown itself to be much more "transmissible" than the flu, which means, in the absence of countermeasures (including effective vaccines), it will spread with a R0 (R-naught) value in excess of 2.0. For each person infected, over two more will be infected with the virus. That's why we had to lock down for half of 2019 and most of 2020.
Some people react in the same fear every time there's a variant, whether we know (a) if it's more "transmissible" than the original COVID-19 (which also gives us a clue how effective the vaccines would be against its spread), and (b) if the virus is as deadly as the original (which gives us a clue as to how different it operates inside the body). The worst cast is that Omicron is highly transmissible (and therefore "immune" to current vaccines), and also highly deadly (which means our natural immunity based on antibodies against the original don't work and our bodies need to start over).
If Omicron is the worst case, then we will need to lock down again, at least until there's an effective vaccine. But we don't know. Every variant until now has had the potential to be a worst case, but it hasn't worked out that way. The people who research viruses, determine what they look like, and how to mass produce a tweaked version of various vaccines to fight them, will give us some guidance here. But fear is powerful, and many people, like the generation who grew up during the Depression who spent their lives hoarding, will cling to lockdowns, masks, and every other countermeasure, whether it's needed or not.
Governments have reacted with panic, triggering a market slide. Everyone's afraid that the world's economy will come once again to a screeching halt, and simultaneously afraid that if we don't stop the world, the next variant will kill another few million. But nobody really knows, so all of this is just theater for now.
Oh, and one more thing. The WHO has been using Greek letters to publicly identify COVID-19 variants. This has never been the practice of researchers, who have their own system ("Omicron" is actually B.1.1.529). It's more for the newspapers and media so they can report things in a more "dumbed down" manner. But the next letter in the Greek alphabet following the previous variant, known as Lambda, is Nu. The letter after that is Xi. WHO skipped both Nu and Xi, and went on to Omicron. Why? The New York Times explains.
"'Nu' is too easily confounded with 'new,' and 'Xi' was not used because it is a common last name," a spokesman, Tarik Jasarevic, said on Saturday in an emailed response to questions about skipping the two letters.
The organization's policy, he went on, requires "avoiding causing offense to any cultural, social, national, regional, professional, or ethnic groups."
You see, Xi happens to be the name of the president of the People's Republic of China. That's not lost on anyone, or on Sen. Ted Cruz. Perhaps a world-eating Xi variant might be a bit too on the nose for those who call COVID-19 the "China virus."
Ted Cruz @tedcruz
If the WHO is this scared of the Chinese Communist Party, how can they be trusted to call them out the next time they're trying to cover up a catastrophic global pandemic?
Paul Nuki @PaulNuki
A WHO source confirmed the letters Nu and Xi of the Greek alphabet had been deliberately avoided. Nu had been skipped to avoid confusion with the word "new" and Xi had been skipped to "avoid stigmatising a region", they said. All pandemics inherently political!

In any case, WHO is taking no chances with names, and the rest of the world is taking no chances at all. Some of us will, unfortunately, choose to wear masks in public for the rest of their lives because COVID-19 is moving from pandemic to endemic to the world. It's another virus that will be with us forever. We can either live in perpetual fear, or move on.
Defending the bailey
I've been doing a lot of thinking about race, religion, and logical arguments lately. I read a rather interesting piece by writer Ben Sixsmith (behind a Substack subscription, I'm afraid), called "In Defence of Being Closed-Minded." (Sixsmith is a Brit, so he spelled "defense" correctly, such as Brits do.)
Of course, how justifiable it is to close one's mind on these occasions depends on the value of one's premises. If you are going to be prejudicial you had better have good prejudices. If you dismiss someone arguing that vaccines are inherently bad, for example, you have more than a hundred years of mankind using vaccines while lifespans lengthened and childhood deaths decreased behind you. If you dismiss someone arguing that cloth masks and lockdowns are not especially efficacious, on the other hand, what long history of success can you point to? (You would have quite probably agreed in March 2020.)
There are some situations that I agree, being closed-minded is not a bad thing. Murdering babies, experimenting on live, healthy humans, manufacturing sex toys in the image of children for "minor attracted" individuals to pacify themselves with, are all good examples of things which I feel utterly confident in saying "no, hell no" to without opening my mind to counter arguments.
But there are other circumstances that present themselves as opportunities to abuse logic and rely on logical fallacies. For example: experience. The old saw says that "my experience trumps your argument." For certain matters, this is undeniably true. A friend of mine was recently proclaimed cancer-free a year after the Mayo Clinic doctors told him to get his affairs in order. Nobody had ever survived the particular cancer ravaging his body, until him, that is. They could only shrug. No amount of argument, statistics, or studies on cancer can ever convince my friend that God did not heal him in a supernatural way. That's how faith operates.
Extended to Christianity, the experience of salvation many times transforms a person in a way that's rather external and public. My own salvation changed me in radical ways that were visible to everyone. Nobody can argue with me that it was some kind of psychological break or a mass hysteria event that happened 2,000 years ago echoing in my subconscious. If you're going to argue atheism to me, you're too late.
Yet, Christians recoil in horror when the Salvation Army adopts a rather "Critical Race Theory" version of racism. Their definition precludes racism operating from Blacks upon white people.
Steve Berman @stevengberman
I went to the source on this. @SalvationArmyUS accepts this as its definition of racism. Do you agree?
Tammy Bruce @HeyTammyBruce
It is extremely unfortunate to see the @SalvationArmyUS get sucked into the disaster of Critical Race Theory & woke politics. Those cancers know no bounds. "This holiday season the Salvation Army wants a donation — and a 'sincere apology' for white racism" https://t.co/kxJ43iZvYl
While I disagree with this definition on its face, I think the general thoughts on critical theory being based in the lived experiences of people is not as easily dismissed. Black people in America have a definite story to tell, and regardless if its told by millionaire NFL players, rappers, or poor urban Blacks, there is a shared experience regarding how people are treated based on skin color. There is also a shared element of 400 years of treatment as a lesser race. These things exist, experientially, regardless of how much better things are today, statistically, economically, legally and culturally.
When white evangelical Christians cling to the experiential aspect of salvation, and 2,000 years of church history of martyrs persecuted for their faith to support it, yet reject the racial experience of Blacks in America, these Christians are engaging in a motte and bailey logical fallacy. They rush out to condemn critical theory for using experience as the basis of racism, and retreat behind the bailey on issues of faith like salvation.
But if you retreat behind the bailey, you have to defend the bailey. Too many Christians are unprepared to do so. They instead rely on the arguments of others, which is another logical fallacy—the appeal to authority. Let me just say it this way. Experience has an authority of its own, when it is borne out in human history and current events.
We cannot fall into the trap of appealing to authority in defending the bailey when we rush out to man the motte. It's better to practice intellectual honesty in all things. Racism is evil. It's okay to be closed-minded about the existence of racism, while remaining open-minded about the value of experience.
I still disagree with the Salvation Army's definition, but I'm just fine with their openness to discuss racism as a topic for faith-filled discussion.
One last thing: Beatles "Get Back"
I have watched 1 1/2 episodes of "Get Back" on Disney+. I thought the last bastion of culture that Disney had not corrupted would be the Beatles, but I was wrong. Disney did not corrupt it—rather, Peter Jackson has elevated it using nothing more than the 60 hours of original film footage, and 150 hours of audio, taken during the planned documentary surrounding the "Let It Be" album.
Watching the manic genius of John Lennon, and the technical perfection of Paul McCartney, while seeing the birth of "Get Back," "Maxwell's Silver Hammer," and other classics is gripping, fascinating, and wonderful.
It's worth the nearly nine-hour investment if you're a late-era Boomer like me, or anyone who cares to see what the best rock-n-roll band in history looked like when they weren't in front of thousands of screaming fans, or part of stock footage from the Ed Sullivan Show. If you have Disney+, this is must-see in my book.

Steve, you wrote, "I'm just fine with their openness to discuss racism as a topic for faith-filled discussion." The problem, as I've observed, is that "discussing racism" is *always* code for "blaming Whitey, who can never adequately atone for his racism, but must never stop trying by means of financial reparations and other preferential treatment of those he keeps oppressing." These "discussions" are never fair or impartial. Their goal seems to be implanting or increasing White Guilt, rather than trying to reduce racism overall.
I wouldn't want a variant to carry my name. Especially now that we have Senators like Cruz who have no issue putting peoples lives in danger to advance his political career. There are plenty of Xi's here in America to worry about without worrying about China.

Multinational tobacco companies don't want to see Ireland introduce plain packaging because they know it works, writes Minister James Reilly.
CIGARETTE PACKETS ARE now sold in slim packets that resemble lipstick with glitzy colours, creative designs and stylish writing. That is advertising.
Standardised packaging of cigarettes will end this.
All cigarette boxes will be the same shape and size and will feature a graphic picture warning on the front and back of the box. The brand name will be printed in a standardised font and size.
It will strip away the illusions created by shiny, pink packets and replace them with shocking images showing the real consequences of smoking. Cigarette packets will be transformed into grim warnings about the stark realities for smokers.
Smoking is responsible for almost one in five of all deaths in Ireland – 5,200 deaths every year; 14 deaths every day.
Half of smokers will eventually die from a smoking-related disease.
To maintain smoking rates at their current levels, the tobacco industry needs to recruit 50 new smokers every day.
78% of smokers start smoking before they are 18 years old – while they are children.
The premature death of 5,200 people per year is a major public health concern. But we are tackling it head on. Last year Ireland became one of the few countries in the EU to have a smoking rate under 20%. Our smoking rate has fallen from 33% in 1998 to 19.5% today. Our aim is to have a Tobacco Free Ireland – defined as a smoking rate of less than 5% – by 2025. We are winning this battle thanks to the determination of successive governments.
The smoking ban, the ban on the sale of packets of ten, the ban on the display of cigarettes in shops and consistent tax increases have all contributed to this progress. Our policies are working. We must continue our battle.
Standardised packaging is the next step in driving our smoking rates down further towards achieving a Tobacco Free Ireland.
We know the impact that it will have.
When standardised packaging was introduced in Australia, so many smokers complained that the cigarettes now tasted differently that a tobacco company issued a statement denying that they had changed their ingredients.
Australia's quitline received a flood of additional calls.
Smoking rates in Australia are now at the lowest level since records began. They are declining at the fastest pace in 20 years.
Most importantly, standardised packaging will reduce the number of children who become addicted to a product that kills one in two of its long-term users.
The tobacco industry is vigorously opposing this legislation because they fear it. They fear it because they know that it works. They are afraid that Irish smoking rates will tumble and that others in Europe will follow Ireland and Australia.
It looks like they are right. When Ireland became the second country in the world to commit to passing standardised packaging legislation in May 2013, many countries were waiting for legal proceedings against Australia in the World Trade Organisation to conclude – a process that still has not finished.
Since then, New Zealand and the United Kingdom have progressed legislation in their Parliaments. France, Norway and Finland have all indicated their intention to follow suit. Standardised packaging will be the future of cigarettes – not just in Ireland and Australia but throughout the world.
The tobacco industry will move to protect its profits. However, the State has a moral duty to protect the health of its citizens and to prevent our children from being lured into a killer addiction by marketing gimmicks. This Government will not put the profit of multinational tobacco companies ahead of the future health of our children. What kind of a society would we be if we prioritised the intellectual property rights of the tobacco industry over the future health of our children?
I look forward to progressing this legislation to Report and Final Stage in the very near future.
James Reilly is the Minister for Children and Youth Affairs.

Help Wanted: Language Project Coordinator »
Indian Affairs Council of Minnesota Releases Report
Serving as a liaison between the State of Minnesota and Native American tribes located there, the Indian Affairs Council of the State of Minnesota was established in 1963 and is the oldest such council in the US.
In 2009, the Minnesota legislature authorized a feasibility study on Dakota (dak) and Ojibwe (oji) revitalization. Last month, the volunteer working group issued the report, titled "Dakota and Ojibwe Language Revitalization In Minnesota."
The contents of the report are:
Introduction: Language Loss
Volunteer Work Group on Ojibwe and Dakota Language Revitalization
Context: Language Immersion and the State of Language Revitalization
Working Group Responses to Issues Identified in Enabling Legislation
Directive 1: Existing Language Programs
Directive 2: Inventory of Resources
Directive 3: Curriculum Needs / Barriers to Teacher Training
Directive 4: Curriculum Needs for Teaching Students
Directive 5: Meeting Curriculum Needs
Directive 6: Creating a Repository of Resources
Directive 7: State Technical Assistance
Directive 8: Funding
Directive 9: Laws, Rules, Regulations and Policies
Directive 10: Community Interest
Volunteer Working Group Membership
Models for Language Material Repositories
Research Bibliography
A summary of the report is available on the index page of the MIAC, but the first half will likely be removed, so it is provided below. The second part is at "Minnesota's Lakota & Ojibwe Language Report."
Dakota and Ojibwe languages are in critical conditions.
The population of fluent and first speakers of these languages is small, and only a few first speakers live in Minnesota.
Virtually nobody who speaks Ojibwe or Dakota as a first language has standard teaching credentials.
Successful models do exist for bringing Indigenous languages from the brink of extinction.
More than 100 programs and activities in Minnesota provide exposure to and/or instruction in Dakota and Ojibwe languages, reflecting the importance placed on this effort by language activists, educators, tribal governments and the Minnesota Department of Education. Few of these programs, however, recognize the essential pedagogic requirements for language revitalization, which include a role for strong immersion programming and the leadership roles for fluent speakers. Language immersion programs are crippled by a lack of trained teachers; a dearth of curriculum materials; policies that adversely affect the licensure, training and availability of required personnel; and limited funding. Currently, only the University of Minnesota campuses in the Twin Cities and Duluth offer preparation for licensure for teaching across the curriculum in Ojibwe and Dakota languages; neither of these operates for teachers in grades 9-12 and subsequently languages are seldom taught formally at that level.
This post was inspired by "Minnesota: Dakota And Ojibwe Language Revitalization in Minnesota" on the Indian Peoples Issues and Resources page.

Australia Urges Britain To Call Off Olympics
By The Shovel on August 1, 2012
After four days of competition and with just one gold medal to its name, Australian has politely asked the organisers of the London 2012 Olympics to wrap everything up early.
Australian Chef de Mission Nick Green said this was nothing at all like how he was told the Olympics worked. "I was under the impression that we just won loads of gold medals and then had a big ticker-tape parade back home. Something has clearly gone wrong. I've reminded the organisers that Australia needs to win a lot of medals and I've simply asked them whether they'd be kind enough to pull the plug on the whole farce. Let's pretend it never happened".
Robbo Simpson from the supporter group The Fanatics agrees. "Everyone's had their fun. It was a great opening ceremony and all that. But let's be totally truthful, no-one's really interested in the sporting bit are they? We never were. We just pretended to be as a show of respect to Great Britain. But I think we can all be adults about it now and say it's time to go home".
Channel 9 – who holds the Australian television broadcasting rights for the Games also has concerns. Spokeswoman Jenny Wong said she had pointed out to the London Organising Committee (LOCOG) that the whole thing was costing Channel 9 loads of money and wasn't really working. "Every time we show a replay of the French team winning that f*cking relay we lose thirty thousand viewers. That's on top of the thirty thousand we lose every time we show Grant Hackett's face. It's just not sustainable".
A LOCOG spokesperson said he wasn't in a position to call off the Games at this stage but would let Australia win the next Commonwealth Games if that made us feel better.

Eastown Theatre
March 25, 2013 May 23, 2017 / Matt
The Eastown is one of the 22 theaters in my new book "After the Final Curtain: The Fall of the American Movie Theater." Find out more here.
View of the auditorium from the balcony.
The Eastown Theatre opened on October 1, 1931 in Detroit, Michigan. It was built by the architectural firm of V.J. Waiver and Company for the Wisper and Westman Theatre chain. Designed in a Baroque architectural style, the 2,500 seat theater was built for motion pictures and did not have live performances until much later. Most movie palace openings were a grand event, and the Eastown was no exception. Newspaper ads proclaimed the opening to be, "the most glorious event in the history of east Detroit." The opening film was Clark Gable's first starring role "Sporting Blood."
View of the auditorium from the stage.
The theater closed in 1967 and after some renovation reopened as a music venue on May 29, 1969. During this time many famous bands played at the Eastown, including Elton John, the Doors, Fleetwood Mac, Chicago, the Grateful Dead, Rush, Jefferson Airplane, the Who and more. Alice Cooper played at the theater often, and some say that he found his now iconic top hat in a dumpster behind the theater before a performance. The theater was also the site of quite a bit of illegal activity. Drug dealers openly sold drugs during shows, and after two deaths, drug arrests and overcrowding violations the mayor of Detroit revoked the city business license. The Eastown closed on December 11, 1971.
The theater's lobby.
The theater reopened once again in late 1975 as a music venue called the Showcase Theatre. James Brown played 14 shows in six days during this time. This was short lived due to rising crime in the area. Patrons' cars were often vandalized or broken into and the Showcase closed after 18 months. It became an adult film theater in 1980, lasting until 1984. Eastown's next iteration came when it was taken over by the Detroit Center for the Performing Arts in 1984. DCPA used the theater to put on plays and acting workshops. With the condition of the theater deteriorating, DCPA started to raise money to make the necessary renovations but was unable to and closed the theater.

After a stint hosting raves, the Eastown was taken over by Deeper Life Ministries. The church used the apartments attached to the building for housing for its congregation with the intent of converting the auditorium into a place of worship. They were unable to and the theater was put up for sale in 2004. On August 9, 2010 a fire broke out in the apartment section of the building. The fire destroyed half of the complex. Other than some smoke damage, the theater was untouched. The city condemned the building and placed demolition notices on the front door the following day. In 2014 scrappers cut the steel beams supporting the roof, which caused it and the balcony to collapse to the main level destroying part of the side wall in the process. The theater was demolished by the city of Detroit in November 2015.

The proscenium arch has become water damaged in the years since the theater closed.
The ceiling in the foyer has also begun to collapse.
Much of the plaster work on the balcony has crumbled and broken off the wall.
"The Eastown was the best audience in the world. And I'm not saying that just because you're writing it down. Any other city, people went home from work to put on their Levis and black leather jackets for a concert. In Detroit they came from work like that. The Eastown — those were pure rock 'n' roll times." – Alice Cooper, The Detroit Free Press

Another jewel thrown in the mud…

I live near-ish this theater, and every time I see it, it seems like there's less of it.
Great blog, by the way.
Thanks Claire. I was really surprised when they didn't demolish the theater after the fire.

I live near this place, and every time I pass it, it seems like there is less of it.
Whatever happened to the musicians who made their fame and fortune at the Eastown since its fall? Maybe the new Mayor will put it back together.
Unfortunately, I don't think the area of Detroit that the Eastown is in could support a theater of its size. The best thing the city could do is seal it up and prevent it from deteriorating any more, so that it could be renovated in the future.
Such a shame it breaks my heart to look at these pictures of a once glorious theatre that was host to so many great rock bands of the 60's & 70's. If I had the money I would restore every inch of this palace.
Unfortunately there is not much left to restore. Scrappers cut the steel beams in the ceiling and the whole thing came crashing down.

Man I was just listening to Ted Nugent & The Amboy Dukes – Survival of the Fittest that was recorded there and wanted to know more about it and here I find your post Matt from just a few days ago such a shame a place like this with so much history is gone now.

It is such a tragedy every time one of these historic theatres bites the dust.
It really is. The sad thing about this one is that it wasn't in bad shape a decade ago. Only after scrappers began tearing it apart did it get so bad that the city had to step in and demolish it.
So tragic every time one of these 'grand olde dames' is lost to the dust heap.
I'm 68 and seen the original Movie Frankenstein there 12or 13 and kissed many a pretty girl there. and oh the concerts my my my. had the time of my life there.
I'm glad you have such great memories of the Eastown. It's a damn shame that it had to be demolished.

The St. Louis Cardinals have sent struggling pitcher Alex Reyes to Triple-A Memphis. The 24-year-old righty had Tommy John surgery in February 2017 and suffered a torn lat strain on May 30, 2018. He pitched just once in the majors last year, giving up three hits and two walks in four innings.
Reyes has had trouble this year getting his control up to what he called "game speed." He is 0-1 with a 15.00 ERA in four appearances, allowing five earned runs and walking six in three innings.
