Compromised Primary Sources and the Galilee Basin Shell Game

I went to the State Library of Queensland the other night after speaking with a lawyer from the Environmental Defenders Office Qld. There I used microfiche (for the first time) to scan the article where it was announced to the world that the Northern Australia Infrastructure Facility (NAIF) had given "conditional approval" to a 1 billion loan for North Galilee Basin Rail Project (NGBR). The original article, which appeared on page 15 of the Saturday edition of the Dec 3, 2016 Courier Mail (CM), has all but disappeared from the internet. As the recent NGBR update from EDO Qld states, the media "broadly reported" the news of the NAIF loan. I discussed with the EDO lawyer this aspect of how members of the general public and the media have come to believe, or not be aware, or not believe that the NAIF loan is 'earmarked' for the NGBR. The EDO lawyer agreed that the Courier Mail article was a compromised primary source. I went further and argued that the buried nature of the article and it's absence from the internet made it almost impossible to reference, easy to miss, and very easy to ignore. If the media, activists, and the public are limited from knowledge of a project then they are largely prevented from investigating and analysing the threat posed by that project.
The Courier Mail article buried in page 15 that announced the NAIF-Adani loan to the world
I believe Adani and the state and federal governments are playing a 'shell game' with the rail projects in the Galilee Basin. By "shell game" I mean the classic confidence trick with three shells and a pea where distractions and deft movements are used to fleece members of the public. Shell games involve the masking of the most important objective, that the victim should lose track of the position of the pea and a chance at winning. The most important objective – in my reckoning – is ensuring that the North Galilee Basin Rail Project is met with little resistance because it is THE piece of infrastructure that makes the Galilee Basin coal complex possible. This is why I believe that Adani have fused their second rail project, the 189 km east west connection to the existing narrow gauge system in the Bowen Basin, with the coal mine project. By fusing a rail line with the coal mine it creates an appearance that can be readily assumed to be the whole picture. Every time the full name of the Adani mine project is read or written, a rail component is affirmed, and all that is needed to keep a second rail project from interfering with the assumption that the rail project attached to the mine is indeed "the" Adani rail project is to obscure the real rail project, the North Galilee Basin Rail Project.
Shell games require slight of hand. A key component of deception/distraction here is the media and the quality of primary sources. Finding definitive primary sources about the North Galilee Basin Rail Project is extraordinarily difficult. Which is why this buried article which passes on statements made only to the Courier Mail and then telegraphed to the rest of the media is important to understand.
The NGBR update provided on April 18, 2017 by EDO Qld was a response to the information giving requirements of a particular group of clients, most likely environmental NGOs like the Mackay Conservation Group and the Australian Conservation Foundation. It is the first ever statement on the NGBR by EDO Qld. This is significant, EDO Qld provide legal support for their clients, they do not campaign on issues, but rather, they provide legal support for their client's campaigns. As such they only publish information in line with the objectives of their clients.
Here's a link to my crowfunding campaign to disclose a successful RTI request relating to the NGBR from late 2014: https://chuffed.org/project/50920-to-disclose-some-truths-about-adanis-rail-plans

Ansgars Kirke er en kirke i Ansgars Sogn, Odense Stift, beliggende på Søndre Boulevard 1, Odense, tegnet af Niels Jacobsen og opført i 1902.

Efter at Ansgars Sogn blev udskilt af Sankt Knuds Sogn den 31. december 1901, blev missionshuset Elim brugt som midlertidig kirke. Samtidigt foregik planlægningen for bygningen af en ny kirke, idét der var samlet en del midler ind til projektet, mens arkitekten tilbød, at tegne kirken gratis.

Kirken er opført som en korskirke med røde mursten og sortglaserede tagsten i nygotisk stil. I tilknytning til kirken står det 45 meter høje campaniletårn med pyramidespir. Over korsskæringen i kirkens indre er der en kuppel og der er et korparti nogle trin over gulvniveau.

Over hovedindgangen er der et sandstensrelief udført af Thomas Bærentzen. Altertavlen, der forestiller Jesu fødsel, er i forgyldt eg og er udfør af Axel Poulsen. Altertæppet er broderet af en kreds af kvinder i sognet, og indeholder symbolerne for Faderen, Sønnen og Helligånden. På buen uden om alternichen er der en Fresko-udsmykning med Jesus omgivet af engle, udført af Niels Skovgaard. I kirken og menighedssalen, der blev bygget i 1917, hænger der to malerier af Ansgar, udført af Anna E. Munch.

Ved kirkens 50-års jubilæum i 1952 fik den en ny kirkedør med udskårne relieffer, der fremstiller munken Ansgar til venstre, i gang med at døbe, og en anden munk til højre, i gang med at skænke kalken, udført af Bertram Jacobsen og Axel Jacobsen.

I 1972 fik kirken et nyt orgel, der har 29 stemmer, fra Marcussen & Søn.

Endnu et orgel blev indviet i september 1999. Det er et orgel med 152 registre fordelt på 5 manualer og pedal, og dermed det største kirkeorgel i Nordeuropa. Orglet er fysisk placeret flere forskellige steder i kirken, hvilket er specielt i danske kirker og kun ellers brugt i Jerusalemskirken i København.

Electron microscopic (EM) immunohistichemical techniques can be divided into two groups: Those where the immunostaining takes place prior to resin embedding are referred to as pre-embedding. Those methods where the immunolabeling is undertaken after resin embedding are known as post-embedding.
The choice of whether to apply pre- or post-embedding method to the detection of an antigen in any particular location will depend to a large extent upon the distribution and liability of the antigen and the characteristics of the primary antibody. Before starting immuno-EM labeling, a test for the characteristics and dilution of the primary antibody should be performed at light microcopy level.
Several recently developed methods rely on labeling with colloidal gold particles. These methods were originally introduced for electron microscopy (Faulk and Taylor 1971) as the gold particles are easily visible under the electron microscope, but they are also useful for light microscopy.
Since gold particles can be made in different size from 5 to 30 nm, it is possible to carry out multiple staining at the electron microscopic level, most easily by direct labeling of several first layer antibodies with different sized particles. The indirect techniques can also be used in double or triple labeling by parallel approach if the primary antibodies are from different species, and by sequential approach if the primary antibodies are from same species.


I absolutely love the gentle wear on old dusty streets. This was a fine study of one with different light achieved by shooting slightly into the sun.
J'aime beaucoup l�intense luminosit�, les fors contrastes et les belles textures de ta photo.

Marta Maurás Pérez (born 1947) is a Chilean diplomat and sociologist. Since 2014, she has been the representative of Chile to international organizations based in Geneva.

Biography
A sociologist from the Pontifical Catholic University of Chile, Maurás holds certificates in Public Administration from the University of Connecticut and Language Ontology from The Newfield Group.

With a long career at the United Nations, she started with UNICEF in 1974, occupying various technical and senior management positions in Latin America and the Caribbean, Asia and Africa, including Chile, Pakistan, Mozambique, Swaziland, and New York.

From 1998 to 2005, she was called to serve in the Executive Office of the Secretary General of the United Nations, Kofi Annan, as Director for Economic and Social Affairs collaborating on the reform of the United Nations; the Millennium Summit and the establishment of the Millennium Development Goals; coordinating the SG's program against HIV/AIDS and supporting the organization of the Special Session of the General Assembly on the subject; the design of peace operations in Kosovo, East Timor, and Iraq; and coordinating the organization of the annual program of meetings with the European Union.

From 1992 to 1998, she was Regional Director of UNICEF for Latin America and the Caribbean, based in Bogotá, Colombia, where she led paradigmatic changes inspired by the rights of children and modern management. She also served as the Special Envoy of UNICEF for Latin America and the Caribbean during 2008. Previously, she served for two years as Secretary of the Economic Commission for Latin America and the Caribbean (ECLAC).

Maurás was also a member of the United Nations Committee on the Rights of the Child, elected by the Party States to the convention for the period 2009–2013. She was a member of the Expanded Council of the Chile21 Foundation, of the Board of Directors of Latinobarómetro Corporation, and of the Council of ComunidadMujer.

In late 2015, Maurás took responsibility for the Presidency of the Convention on the Prohibition of Antipersonnel Mines (or Ottawa Treaty), whose Secretariat and body of discussion is based in Geneva, Switzerland. The 15th Meeting of Party States that she chaired, and in which more than 100 countries participated, took place in Santiago, Chile in the last week of November and the first week of December 2016.

Q: Is $\sum_{i = 1}^{n} ({X_i}^2 - {\bar{X}}^2) \ge 0$? All $X_i \ge 0$ and $\bar{X} = \frac{1}{n}\sum_{i = 1}^{n} X_i$.
Can we get this inequality $\sum_{i = 1}^{n} ({X_i}^2 - {\bar{X}}^2) \ge 0$?
EDIT:
Thanks to Landon Carter, I found $\sum_{i=1}^n(X_i-\bar X)^2 = \sum_{i=1}^n(X_i^2 -\bar X^2)$, the proof is as follows:
\begin{align*}
\sum_{i=1}^n(X_i-\bar X)^2
&=\sum_{i=1}^n(X_i^2-2X_i\bar X+\bar X^2)\\
&=\sum_{i=1}^nX_i^2-2\sum_{i=1}^nX_i\bar X+\sum_{i=1}^n\bar X^2\\
&=\sum_{i=1}^nX_i^2-n\bar X^2\\
&=\sum_{i=1}^n(X_i^2 -\bar X^2)\\
&\ge 0.
\end{align*}

A: Hint: Expand $0\leq \sum_{i=1}^n (X_i - \overline{X})^2$

In which secret sister Maureen Johnson shares her Internet wisdom and talks about how best to have a discussion with trolls online.
http://twitter.com/maureenjohnson
Good morning, Hank. It's Tuesday. I'm Maureen Johnson, filling in for John Green because once again he has contributed to the birth of a human child. This is really nerve-racking for me because I'm a writer like John but, like, I don't make videos all the time and, you know, I don't really think I'm good at it. So, you know, I got my camera, I got my watermelon...
Today's topic is the Internet. Yeah, the Internet! The whole thing! Some people don't like the Internet, and it can be for a number of reasons. For example, there are people like my mom who gets confused by the Internet and generally doesn't know how it works and is constantly afraid she's going to break it.
Maureen's mom, watching the Google home page fall apart: Maureen? Maureen? Maureen?
Maureen: The people that hate or dismiss the Internet often say things like, "Well, back when I was a kid, you know, we didn't just sit around and watch porn all the time and make animated giffies." Now yeah, that may be true, but you probably also didn't engage in a political discussion with a thousand people, so shut up. I'm not saying the level of discourse is always high. I mean, I filled in for John when he went on paternity leave the first time, and on my first video, 90% of the comments just said, "Oh my god! John has boobs!"
Sometimes we are going to get breaking news from the middle of a seed of government and sometimes we're going to have—
Maureen, hugging a pillow: I just really love cats and *sniffles* I want them to be on a rainbow.
Maureen: The last couple weeks have been pretty fraught. There's been a lot going on in the media and the world that it's kind of hard to talk about. It makes us both want to talk all the time and not know how to talk at all. There's a lot of split opinions. It's hard to know what to say to people who are of a different viewpoint than you without screaming or ripping out your hair or just going nuts and turning into some sort of crazy troll just going around the internet going "troll, troll, troll, I just want to watch the world burn." And that is not productive.
But it doesn't mean we can't talk about these things that are difficult, where our opinions differ wildly. In fact, we have to talk about these things. And I think in many ways the Internet is teaching us how to talk to each other in a big way, in a big way that we've never done before, and we are just learning the language of mass discussion. But it's easy to say we can use the Internet to talk about things, but we all know it's actually really difficult. That's why, you know, the one rule of the Internet is don't read the comments!
But okay, too late, you've read the comments, it's already done, what do you do now? Pause. Breathe. Look at some cats. And ask yourself, what do you want to accomplish? Do you want to further a good cause that you're already a part of, or do you want to punch a troll in the face? And you probably want to do both of those things, but you're probably only going to be able to accomplish one of them, and it probably shouldn't be 2, so focus on 1. Does it improve the situation of the cause, or whatever it is you're trying to promote or encourage or talk about to just punch a troll in the face? And the answer, unfortunately, is probably not. It doesn't make your side look good, it doesn't further the discussion, so therefore sadly a lot of times you're not going to be able to make that comment into a teachable mome... Oh, what am I even talking about? Just go for it! Just answer all the trolls. Just do it. Now! *shouting* Troll patrol starts now! Let's do this thing!
Honestly, start here. Start on this... start on this video. Start looking in the comments now and be like "ur dumb" "no ur dumb" "boobs"
No one knows how to Internet. If anybody tells you they know how to Internet, tell them to go eat some watermelon 'cause that's the only thing that makes sense in this mixed-up world of ours.
I don't know what you people want from me. Just follow me on Twitter or something, I don't know. [on screen: @maureenjohnson] I'm good at Twitter. I'm good at Twitter. I'm not... I'm not great at videos. I'm very, very good at Twitter, though. Go there.
Maureen, whimpering: I can't turn down my cat! I'm sorry!

A version of this article was originally published on Style Wise.
Five years into this ethical fashion journey, I still find that the most difficult barrier to buying from more ethical companies is price.
Firstly, we've been conditioned into buying things in high quantities at low prices, so it's hard to change our mindset. Pair that with high inflation and stagnant wages and it feels almost impossible–and, in fact, may be impossible–to inch up our cost-per-item from $20 to $100. Then there's a third concern–for me at least–that some ethical (fair-trade, sustainable, vegan, etc) companies actually charge customers an inflated price just because they can.
When I first started out, I worked part time at a coffee shop making something like $17,000 a year, so I simply couldn't afford artisan products. I relied heavily on thrifting and thoughtfulness to get by. And that's ok!
But thanks to some recent job changes (like moving to full-time) and freelance income, this year I've been able to save up for higher-quality goods. But even that takes a lot of time and effort to get right, because I don't want to throw down two days' wages on something that isn't precisely what I want or need. I've made some costly mistakes.
The point is, it's difficult to be an ethical consumer when you don't have a lot of disposable income, and we can't blame ourselves for personal financial situations that are influenced and impacted by politics and capitalism. The good thing is that there are many ways to be thoughtful and intentional in the way that we choose to shop, and middle income folks may have an advantage because we really have to think hard about what we buy.
1. Cut your own bangs.
My tips: Pin your hair back on each side of your head, make sure to form a subtle arc where your bangs touch your regular-length hair line, then use a fine tooth comb to visualize the line where you'd like to cut. Invest in a pair of sheering scissors and snip from the center, moving out in each direction until you've completed the first trim. Correct discrepancies as needed.
2. Dye your own hair.
Try using eco-friendly and healthy henna instead of chemical dyes. Here is a food-grade all-natural hair dye you can try; and here's a review of Lush henna.
Create a morning ritual. I prefer using a French Press or a Pour Over because it's slower and more intentional (and the coffee tastes much better). Also, consider investing in a coffee grinder and buying whole beans. Making good coffee will help you resist the temptation to buy it elsewhere.
4. Buy used books or visit your local library.
Better World Books, local used book shops, and the library are great, low cost ways to get your reading fix. I buy almost all of my books at the thrift shop where I work!
5. Get a digital antenna instead of buying cable.
Make a one-time investment in a digital antenna and get access to lots of local channels, including network TV.
6. Consign or sell your old clothes.
Sell off your high quality goods at the beginning of each season so you can invest in essentials you really need. Here's how to resell your clothes.
What do you think about these ways to save money? Do you have your own favorite tips to share?

This is the business mailing list that lets you reach small, medium and large businesses that have taken a loan from either a bank, holding company, financial services institution or the financial arm of a leading company.
Reach the top contact at our nation's businesses who have been approved and received a bank loan.
All of these companies have been approved for a company loan, not a personal loan. They are growing and profitable small, medium and large businesses that have been credit approved by a significant lending institution. These loans are all part of the UCC business mailing list data from D&B, which represents the most complete and accurate financial data available.
This business mailing list is sourced from D&B / (Uniform Commercial Code) filings, we are segmenting this financial data to help reach businesses who have borrowed money for their growing businesses.
What makes this file so valuable? It gives you the opportunity to reach growing small businesses that are credit worthy. We also know which bank loaned these individuals money to help grow their small, medium or large business. Institutions / Lenders are selectable for more individualized targeting for your specific product or service.
UCC filings register a secured party's interest in a commercial loan. Commercial borrowers secure a loan by using commercial goods as collateral so the bank offering the loan is protected. After the debtor pays off the loan, the lender files a release. Lenders protect their financial interest through a UCC filing.
In lending agreements, collateral is a borrower's pledge of specific property to a lender, to secure repayment of a loan. The collateral serves as protection for a lender against a borrower's default – that is, any borrower failing to pay the principal and interest under the terms of a loan obligation. If a borrower does default on a loan due to insolvency or other event, that borrower forfeits the property pledged as collateral–and the lender then becomes the owner of the collateral.

Should theodicy be at the heart of preaching?
Theodicy is the defence of God's justice and goodness. It is something that we naturally think about, and yet, more often than not, it drives our preaching. You reach a difficult teaching of Jesus about hell, or a confronting passage of Paul's about the role of men and women in the church, or even about the uniqueness of Christ, and instead of listening to the passage, you start arguing with it. And sometimes God's word seems to magically come around to your point of view.
I have no problems with us thinking through how everything squares with God's justice, supremacy and love. But I do have a problem when theodicy starts driving or twisting the preaching, or, more commonly, leaving out the offending verses.
I have caught myself doing it in evangelism. I have seen in it preaching, and have witnessed it in bucketloads in denominational and theological circles.
As far as I can see, the few places in the Bible that could potentially be theodicies end up with doxologies. They move from trying to defend God's character to praising God's sovereign character as he has revealed himself, or calling for a response. Job could have been written as a defence of God's goodness, and yet, in the end, the creator of all declares that he does not need defending, and Job worships him in humble contrition and adoration. Romans 9-11 starts looking like a theodicy, and ends up with a marvellous statement that lets God be God (Rom 11:33-36).
If there is any passage that begs for a theodicy, this may be one. But should that be our intent?
What does this passage call for? A defence of how God could do this? Or (and this is even more common and a much worse way of arguing) that it is not saying what it seems to be saying? What does this call for? "Here is a call for the endurance of the saints, those who keep the commandments of God and their faith in Jesus" (Rev 14:12).
We might have an aside showing how God is just in this passage, but the thrust of what we must say is declarative: this is what will happen. Christian brothers and sisters, we must endure, keep God's commandments and hold our faith in Jesus.
Theodicy may have some limited value as an aside, but it is not at the heart of preaching. If theodicy drives preaching, we end up forcing our values onto God's word, rather than his word onto our values.
If you are a preacher, you are not God's lawyer. And you are most certainly not his public relations officer—a spin doctor for the deity. You are his messenger boy.
Great lines AB, really good. I would also add that theodically-driven preaching is often not all that convincing, anyway.
My one hesitation is this. Theodicy remains the #1 issue people raise when confronted with the gospel. Look at the reaction to JAAL for evidence of that. How do we respond to that?
Well said Andrew. Part of the problem is that we often think of justice as something independent of God rather than as God defines it. Job 40:8-14 are key to the whole book, and deal with this very issue.
I agree. I'm reading through Tim Keller's, "Reason For God" with a small group at church (believers and unbelievers). I like his approach of thinking though the reasons that people have for unbelief and exposing the beliefs that underly them.
Perhaps there is a way forward like this. Preach on Revelation 14 and expose the objections people have with this passage and the evaluate their underlying beliefs.
That being said – we must not let any of our approaches twist God's word. I must admit that I have heard some of the great ones give theodicies for hell that turn it from something of which we should be scared to something that seems "reasonable" and tame and our choice.
Part of the problem is that we often think of justice as something independent of God rather than as God defines it.
Very true. I'd be interested if anyone has any thoughts about what sense or system of justice most theodicies try and judge God by.
Thanks for this helpful piece. I've been preaching a series on the cross of Christ this term, and still feel an infant with the issues involved.
I'm wondering if you have any thoughts about Romans 3:25-26? Espeically in relation to Habakkuk and the beginning of the section in Romans 1-3 (Rom 1:16-17) drawing on Habakkuk?
In Ex 34:6-7, when God reveals his glory to Moses, there is a tension left in God's character as Yahweh with regards to his justice: he forgives wickedness, but doesn't leave the guilty unpunished.
So when we get to Rom 3:25-26 the cross, as the demonstration of God's justice, is the resolution of that tension: of how God can be just to forgive; of how God could have been just to overlook former sins. He doesn't just display (make known) his justice, but he demonstrates it (actually provides atonement so as to be just in justifying the unjust).
But thinking about the cross as the display and demonstration of God's character / glory (justice Rom 3:25, but love Rom 5:8), means that the cross also needs to define his love and justice.
In that sense, to pick up on your excellent imagery, God is his own lawyer, and the cross is the answer to his own story of redemption and the tensions posed by it. But never in that do I act as judge, but always stand under him: he teaches me what justice is, and he answers a question he himself was willing to leave hanging in the old covenant.
And in that imagery, I'm never his lawyer: he is always mine. As his messenger boy, I only ever stand as the recipient of his representation (and substitution!).
So my task as teacher is let him defend himself by making the gospel known: a gospel that doesn't just demonstrate God's justice, but teaches me what justice is?
But on the 'where people itch' issue (to pick up Craig – and Job!), I'm wondering if my task as the teacher/pastor is over time to take people through to the point where they can wrestle with this issue in a godly fashion: that may start out in anger, grief, denial, or even abstract presumptive speculation, but end in humility before God, and wrestle with the question with listening ears to what is said rather than demanding answers. That is, Job and Habakkuk don't just teach me where I should be, but also helps me (and others) to get there?
Lots of thoughts half expressed – what do you think?
First: thanks Andrew for this, it's really important.
Second: Scott, I think you're onto something. But I also then have a question about Romans 9 and the first part of Romans 3 (esp. vv5-6). While he doesn't question the question in 3:25-26, I wonder if he effectively questions the question by questioning the questioner in 3:5-6 and Rom 9?
If you are a preacher, you are not (merely) a Bible reader.

McCarron claims third victory at TPC Sugarloaf
DULUTH, Ga. — Scott McCarron completed a wire-to-wire victory in the Mitsubishi Electric Classic on Sunday for his third victory at TPC Sugarloaf.
The winner of the PGA Tour defunct BellSouth Classic at the course in 1997 and 2001, McCarron closed with a 1-under 72 for a two-stroke victory over Jerry Kelly, Joe Durant, Kirk Triplett and Kent Jones in the PGA Tour Champions event.
"Obviously, it's a golf course I like," McCarron said. "I got to play here my first time with Greg Norman, who designed the golf course. When we were coming here I called him for a practice round. He kind of showed me some of the lines off the tees, where you could go, where you could get some more yardage and where you need to hit it on layups, those type of things. He taught me a lot on how to play this golf course."
The 53-year-old McCarron finished at 7-under 209 for his ninth victory on the 50-and-over tour. He won three times on the PGA Tour.
"I'm having so much fun playing on the PGA Tour Champions," McCarron said. "This is like a new lease on life for me for my golf career, but I also know that there's an end in sight. Because of that, I'm putting everything I can into these whatever, 10, 15 years."
McCarron lost the lead with a slow start, playing the first four holes in 1 over with two birdies, a bogey and a double-bogey on the par-5 third. He birdied the par-4 13th to break a tie with Durant and opened a two-stroke lead with an 18-foot birdie putt on the par-4 15th.
"It was just, 'Stay patient, stay patient.' That was it," McCarron said.
McCarron earned $270,000 and took the lead in the Charles Schwab Cup points race.
Kelly birdied the final two holes for a 67. Durant, Triplett and Jones shot 69.
Durant birdied four of the first six holes to take the lead. He bogeyed the par-4 ninth and closed with nine straight pars.
"I missed a couple short putts for birdies I could have made," Durant said. "But based upon the state of my game at the beginning of the week, I'm very pleased with how I finished because I wasn't playing particularly well. Just due to the tough conditions, was grinding it out."
Hall of Fame pitcher John Smoltz tied for 61st among the 77 finishers at 11 over, shooting 80-74-73. The former Atlanta Braves star got into the field on a sponsor exemption. He tied for 53rd in his tour debut in March in Tucson, Arizona.
Fellow former big league pitcher Shigetoshi Hasegawa had a 74 to tie for 72nd at 15 over. He also got a sponsor exemption.


While checking out some new releases, I came across a cute gift card holder by Debbie, which inspired me to create the one you see here. I did change my dimensions a bit - as I didn't want the top flap as long - so mine only measures 2". I used my slit punch to create the scallop edge you see, and then wrapped my 5/8" Chocolate Grosgrain around the inside to cover where the edges meet, and tied a bow. To dress it up a bit, I add my stick pin from the Pretties Kit.
The gift card holder is beautiful, but I had to laugh when I read that you 'tied a boy' -- ha!

Denver Broncos head coach Vance Joseph looks on during drills at the team's practice on Saturday, July 28 in Englewood. After a 5-11 rookie season,Joseph may be on the hot seat this fall.
Yeah, it's too early, but what else does one do on a rainy Saturday afternoon?
The Broncos had their first day of training camp down in Englewood on Saturday, July 28, and there are only 42 days until Denver hosts Seattle in the season opener. What do we need to watch at camp and where do the Broncos fit in the AFC West?
Well, the most notable addition is quarterback Case Keenum, fresh from the Minnesota Miracle during last year's NFC Divisional Playoffs against the Saints. Clearly after two years of swapping out Trevor Siemian, Paxton Lynch and Brock Osweiler, something needed to be done. But is Keenum, the answer?
Remember that in Minnesota Keenum had a solid defense, a good ground game, and good receivers in Stefon Diggs and Adam Thielen.
OK, the Broncos have a good defense, but a running game and good receivers? At running back, we're still looking at Devontae Booker (79 carries for 299 yards in 2017) and De'Angelo Henderson (all of seven carries for 19 yards). The three other backs in camp are rookies — Royce Freeman (Oregon), Phillip Lindsey (Colorado) and Dave Williams (Arkansas).
The hometown story would be that Lindsey becomes a stud having gone to Denver South, CU and now the Broncos. We're one day into camp, so we'll hold off on that narrative.
Of course, a lot of the issues with the quarterback carousel and the lack of a running game have to do with the offensive line's issues.
Right now, we're looking at Garrett Bolles at left tackle; Ron Leary at left guard; Matt Paradis at center; Menelik Watson at right guard and Jared Veldher at right tackle. Leary's moving from right to left guard. Waston is shifting from tackle to guard and Veldher's played most of his career at left tackle. Three linemen at different positions is a little scary.
Provided Keenum isn't flat on his back, Emmanuel Sanders and Demaryius Thomas are his main targets. We presume they can still catch the ball, but we really haven't seen much of them the last two years. In fairness, that was more on the offensive line and a multitude of quarterbacks.
As much as the preseason is an issue of making sure players don't get hurt, the Broncos are going to have to work their offensive line and backfield in August, so we can see if bringing in Keenum was worth it.
As for Keenum, he's more mobile than his predecessors, but he does have a tendency to throw across his body. Watch for that because that usually doesn't end well.
Von Miller has a new toy. His name is Bradley Chubb, the team's first-round pick out of North Carolina State. Wanna double Von? Chubb should be able to rampage.
The Broncos front seven is a handful for every team and the bedrock of Broncos-dom.
Keep an eye on the secondary though. Yes, Aqib Talib was a bit of loose cannon, but he was talented. Do the likes of Justin Simmons, Will Parks and Bradley Roby keep improving with the additions of Tramaine Brock and Su'a Cravens to sustain "The No Fly Zone?" That would be another thing to watch.
Head coach Vance Joseph has been on the job for one year, but he's already on the hot seat. During last year's 5-11 campaign, he looked a bit like he was thrown in the deep end.
General manager and general Colorado legend John Elway kept Joseph over the offseason. We'll see how it pans out. A slow start for the Broncos would not be good for Joseph.
Who's going to run away with the AFC West?
While in some ways, Broncos fans will miss quarterback Alex Smith, now in Washington, the Kansas City Chiefs are leaning essentially on a rookie quarterback in Patrick Mahomes. Yes, he has good skill players around him, but it's a learning curve for young quarterbacks, as Broncos fans have seen the last two years.
The Los Angeles Chargers were the first team out when if came to making the playoffs last year at 9-7, so they'll be a sleeper pick. However, the reflexive response of all Broncos fans is, "But they're the Chargers." It's my reaction, too.
Jon Gruden is back with the Raiders, so cue the "Chucky" intros. Oakland, yep, the Raiders were still there at last check, is talented, but has a general tendency to shoot itself in the foot.
The Chiefs finished 10-6 last year, winning the division after a 5-0 start, with the Chargers one game back. Oakland was 6-10 and the Broncos 5-11.
Does anyone really scare you here? Nope.
A record of 9-7 could win this division with 7-9 bringing up the rear.
That leaves the Broncos right in the mix.

LeMahieu, De La Rosa lead Rockies to 11-5 win over Pirates

David Zalubowski
DENVER (AP) Jorge De La Rosa lost command of his fastball, his confidence and ultimately his spot in the rotation.
A stint in the bullpen may have just turned things around for the franchise's all-time leader in wins and strikeouts.
The left-hander settled down a slugfest with four perfect innings out of the bullpen and the Colorado Rockies beat the Pittsburgh Pirates 11-5 on Thursday.
It resembled the De La Rosa of old, the one not afraid to use his curve to accompany his blazing fastball.
''He did a really nice job,'' manager Walt Weiss said. ''(The demotion) was a tough pill to swallow for a guy who's been the best pitcher in franchise history, really. But he's handled it well. He went back to the drawing board and is in a good place.''
De La Rosa (2-4) retired all 12 batters he faced after starter Chad Bettis struggled. De La Rosa also brought in a run with a bunt.
As for when he might return to the rotation, those are ''conversations we'll continue to have,'' Weiss said. ''That was always the big-picture plan.''
The game with the Pirates was a makeup of the April 28 contest that was postponed by weather.
DJ LeMahieu homered, doubled and drove in three runs, while Ryan Raburn, Charlie Blackmon and Nolan Arenado each drove in two runs as Colorado snapped an eight-game skid to the Pirates at Coors Field.
Jeff Locke (5-4) had his four-game winning streak halted. He surrendered a career-high 11 runs and saw his ERA soar from 4.28 to 5.38.
This was a drastic change from the way Locke pitched at Coors Field on April 25. That day, he threw six scoreless innings and struck out eight.
''Just a really bad day,'' Locke explained. ''It went exactly the opposite way you want it to.''
The Rockies arrived in town from Los Angeles at 3:12 a.m. Thursday, but their bats never slumbered. The only position player not to have a hit was Mark Reynolds, who did drive in a run with a ground out in a four-run first that helped set the tone.
''It's good to see us play the way we did under the circumstances,'' LeMahieu said.
Pittsburgh interrupted a long homestand for the quick turn-around trip to Colorado. Down 6-1 in the third, the Pirates scored four times off Bettis. David Freese led the surge with a three-run homer.
The Pirates only had one baserunner after the third inning - a walk by Freese in the eighth.
That was due to Rockies relievers led by De La Rosa. The struggling lefty was moved to the bullpen on May 25 to hone his mechanics, but rediscovered his command by striking out five. He was helped out by Arenado, who made two phenomenal barehanded plays at third base.
''That's the most comfortable and consistent I've seen him on the mound,'' said Pirates manager Clint Hurdle, who managed De La Rosa when Hurdle was the skipper in Colorado. ''He threw strikes with all of his pitches.''
Pirates: Due to a worn-out pitching staff, the Pirates optioned RHP Jameson Taillon to Triple-A Indianapolis and recalled LHP Kyle Lobstein, who threw 2 1-3 scoreless innings. ... OF Starling Marte (bruised left ankle) returned to the starting lineup Thursday. He had an RBI single in the first.
Rockies: OF Carlos Gonzalez was given the day off. He's coming off a series in Los Angeles where he struck out 10 times over three games. ... C Tony Wolters (concussion) will begin a rehab assignment Friday with Triple-A Albuquerque.
PENGUINS FEVER
The Pirates donned Penguins jerseys for the plane ride in support of their city's sports brethren playing in the Stanley Cup final against San Jose.
Hurdle even had four tickets to Game 5 on Thursday night in Pittsburgh, but obviously couldn't use them. He gave the coveted seats to his sister.
''I've never witnessed a Stanley Cup playoff game,'' Hurdle said. ''I'm not taking it personally; I'm going to embrace my sister and brother-in-law's joy.''
Pirates: RHP Gerrit Cole (5-4) remained in Pittsburgh to get ready for his start Friday against St. Louis. The Cardinals will throw RHP Michael Wacha (2-6).
Rockies: RHP Jon Gray (4-2) will make his second straight start against San Diego on Friday. He struck out a career-high 12 in seven innings last Sunday at San Diego.

Queen Anne joins city's 'Only in Seattle' local business district marketing campaign
The Office of Economic Development's Only in Seattle initiative will expand to include Queen Anne and six other neighborhoods, Mayor McGinn announced last Wednesday.
The program is receiving an additional $40,000 from the City of Seattle as part of the Seattle Jobs Plan's $1 million investment in neighborhood business districts, according to a press release from the mayor's office. In addition to Queen Anne, Belltown, Capitol Hill, Greenwood-Phinney, Madison Valley, South Lake Union and the University District will be included in the initiative.
The initiative "highlights the hidden gems of shopping and dining in Seattle's neighborhoods" with a website and online, print and transit advertising.
From the Office of Economic Development's original press release on the Only in Seattle initiative:
Inspired by the "buy local" movement, the city's Office of Economic Development (OED) worked with local business owners and neighborhood leaders to develop a campaign that would inspire people to discover and explore new neighborhoods and businesses that make up Seattle's diverse retail community… The Office of Economic Development promotes a healthy business environment for neighborhood business districts and business organizations, and works to help grow and strengthen the business community in Seattle neighborhoods. The Only in Seattle campaign is only one of numerous OED-funded projects and activities that improve business districts.
"It's an opportunity to showcase all of [Queen Anne businesses'] unique offerings not only to Queen Anne residents and other business employees in the area, but to people who live outside of the area whether they're coming into the area as tourists or from the greater Seattle area," said Director of Marketing for the Greater Queen Anne Chamber of Commerce Mary Chapman. "What we would really like to capitalize on is getting people to frequent our businesses regularly, not just come in on a one-time thing because you randomly found it, but purposely knowing what businesses are available in Queen Anne and coming to shop there frequently."
In anticipation of the 2011 Only in Seattle marketing campaign's expansion, the Greater Queen Anne Chamber of Commerce applied to add Queen Anne into the program.
"It was through the collaboration that we already had with the Department of the Economic Development that we filled out the paperwork and were accepted, so we're extremely happy about that," said Chapman, adding, "Involvement with the chamber means that we can go out and act on [Queen Anne businesses'] behalf both in terms of getting city dollars spent in our neighborhood and in terms of doing more public relations outreach in helping people in our community know about their businesses."
She said that all of the new neighborhoods to be included in the 2011 campaign are going to receive contacts within the next month to get the research started for the marketing campaign. In the coming weeks the Greater Queen Anne Chamber of Commerce will begin the data collection for the Only in Seattle marketing team.
The Only in Seattle marketing campaign began in November of 2010 with five Seattle neighborhoods: Ballard, Columbia City, Georgetown, Rainier Valley and West Seattle. The Seattle Jobs Plan was launched in August 2010 to encourage sustainable development and shared prosperity in the region.

Put lives before ideology and join EU coronavirus vaccine scheme
Liberal Democrat MP Layla Moran has written to health secretary Matt Hancock urging him to join an EU initiative to secure adequate supplies of a vaccine against the coronavirus.
Last week the European Commission launched a new strategy to develop an effective vaccine and allow countries to pool together to buy sufficient supplies through advance purchase deals with manufacturers. The initiative would also help distribute a vaccine to developing countries.
The UK is able to take part in the scheme throughout the transition period, which is due to come to an end on 31 December 2020.
Layla Moran is calling on the UK government to both take part in the EU vaccine scheme and extend the transition period, to ensure the country can continue to benefit if a vaccine is developed next year. It comes after the UK government failed to participate in earlier EU schemes to jointly procure potentially life-saving medical equipment such as ventilators and protective equipment, with officials blaming an email mix-up.
The strategy has the following objectives:
Ensuring the quality, safety and efficacy of vaccines.
Securing swift access to vaccines for Member States and their populations while leading the global solidarity effort.
Ensuring equitable access to an affordable vaccine as early as possible.
Layla Moran said: "The government must put lives before ideology and join EU efforts to secure access to a coronavirus vaccine.
"Working together with our neighbours will increase the chances of developing an effective vaccine and deploying it around Europe and the world as soon as possible.
"Opportunities have already been missed to take part in vital EU schemes that could have helped the NHS combat this pandemic by securing life-saving equipment. We must ensure those mistakes aren't made again.
"This should go hand in hand with an extension to the transition period, to ensure the UK can continue to benefit from this EU-wide scheme if a vaccine is developed next year."

How to Cite Translated Books in MLA Format
How to Cite an Addendum
How to Cite an Anthology (APA style)
How to Cite an Anthology in MLA Style
How to Cite a Video Documentary in APA
How to Cite a Play's Epilogue in the MLA Style
Jade Lynch-Greenberg
The Modern Language Association (MLA) style is used when writing papers for English composition and literature courses. When writing for such courses, you may need to cite not only a story (or play) itself, but also the introduction, afterword and/or epilogue. If the epilogue was written by the author of the play and included in the initial publication, it is cited as part of the book in the standard MLA format. The entry would begin with the author's name (last name first), followed by the book title, city of publication, publisher, year (of publication) and medium (such as "Print").
In-Text
The current version of the MLA Handbook for Writers, the seventh edition, says to list the author and page number when citing the material in the text of an essay or document. If the epilogue was written by another author, the author's name is listed in-text to match the name on the Works Cited page. Use the play's author's last name if the epilogue was written by the same author as the play.
On the Works Cited Page
When deciding how to cite the epilogue on the Works Cited page, note whether or not it was written by the same author of the book. If not, cite it as a foreword or preface. '},{'content':'The epilogue's author name (last name first) goes first in the entry, followed by the word "Epilogue" (with the first letter capitalized and the word followed by a period, but without quotation marks or italics) and then the book title (in italics). The author of the book is listed next, followed by the city of publication, publisher and year of publication. Finally, the epilogue's page numbers is followed by the medium of the document ("Print," for a book).
Markovich, Gina. Epilogue. High heels and a .45. By Lita Jerricho. New York: Penguin Press. 2007. 213-220. Print.
Citing a Play's Epilogue (Appearing in a Republished Edition) on the Works Cited Page
If the epilogue was not included in the initial printing, the republished edition needs to be listed on the Works Cited page.
The author is listed first in the entry (last name, first name), followed by book title, original year of publication, any new material by another author (if applicable—and not shown in the following example), the city of publication, publisher, year of (new) publication and the medium (such as "Print").
For example: Martin, Sera. The Year of the Zed. 2005. New York: Penguin Press. 2012. Print.
Live Performance of the Play's Epilogue on the Works Cited Page
If citing the epilogue from a live performance of a play, the format is slightly different. The MLA Works Cited entry opens with the title of the play (in italics), the author (after "By"), other vital roles as applicable (such as the director—noted by "Dir."—and/or major performers—designated by "Perf."), the theater company (if applicable) and the theater and location.
Finally, include the specific date of the performance and the label "Performance," as the medium.
For example: The Year of the Zed. By Sera Martin. Dir. Don Simmons. Congress Theatre, Chicago. 12 July 2013. Performance.

Chinese men top qualifiers for 10m platform diving final, Jordan Windle makes history for U.S.
IMAGN
By: Mychael Urban
SEMIFINALS DETAIL
Setting up what's sure to be a thrilling final in men's 10-meter platform diving at the Tokyo Olympics, China's Cao Yuan and Yang Jian earned the top two spots in Saturday's semifinals, with the ROC's Aleksandr Bondar, Great Britain's Tom Daley, ROC's Victor Minibaev and Aussie Cassiel Rousseau rounding out the top six moving on to the medal round at the Tokyo Aquatics Center.
U.S. diver Jordan Windle, 22 and the first-ever Olympic diver of Cambodian descent, placed ninth in the semis to advance. Born in Cambodia, he was abandoned at the age of one and placed in an orphanage in Chom Chao, where the nannies named him Pisey, which translates to "little darling" in English. When he was 18 months old, "Pisey" was adopted by Jerry Windle, a single gay man from Florida.
When he was seven years old, Jerry enrolled Jordan in the Fort Lauderdale Aquatics Fun Camp in Fort Lauderdale, where he was noticed by diving coach Tim O'Brien, son of Ron O'Brien, who coached four-time Olympic gold medalist and living legend Greg Louganis..
Fellow American Brandon Loschiavo, a 24-year-old from Huntington Beach, Calif., qualified for the finals just behind Windle, in 10th.
