The internet is basically just one big network of Star Wars theories at this point. The ideas are flying all over the place so quickly is nearly impossible to keep up. We know, we've tried. For fans, this is actually part of the entire experience of getting ready for The Force Awakens. It turns out the same is true for director J.J. Abrams. He's looking forward to his new movies reception, but until then, he's having a blast watching everybody voice their theories.
Extra tried to get Abrams on the record regarding the current "Luke Skywalker goes dark side" and while the director masterfully sidestepped any sort of official statement, he did sing the praises of the theories in general.
I saw that, too [the theory of Luke going to the Dark Side]. I'm always interested in seeing people's theories. What'll be cool [is] when people finally see the movie and see what it really is. Hopefully some people will say, 'I was right!' Other people will be like, 'Ah-rah!' You want people to be debating things even before the movie comes out. It's a dream!
Getting people talking isn't just J.J. Abrams' dream, it's his stock in trade. The director is well known for what he calls his "mystery box" style of filmmaking. The idea that there needs to be something hidden from the audience, and that finding the solution is the thing that drives them into the theater. Whether we're talking about the initial marketing for Cloverfield where it wasn't even clear what was being advertised, or the identity of Benedict Cumberbatch's character in Star Trek: Into Darkness, Abrams simply doesn't make movies that don't get audiences talking. Of course he loves it, it's the only way he knows to do it.
For the new Star Wars film, the thing inside the mystery box is Luke Skywalker. His character is being intentionally held back in the film's marketing leading fans to wonder why. Does he go bad? Does he die? Does he just look really fat in those robes? Ok, it's probably not that last one. This time around, the director hasn't seemed to have kept quite the stranglehold that he normally does on information. Part of that may just be that with the reality of Star Wars, he knows that isn't really possible. If anything that has helped with the current mystery because fans aren't starving for any information, so they're beginning to focus on the little bits they don't have.
The mystery box will be opened December 18, and Luke Skywalker will jump out. What he will look like when he does? Well, I've got a theory.

San Angelo man charged in double murder, arson moves to delay case, dismiss death penalty
Alana Edgin
San Angelo Standard-Times
SAN ANGELO — Nearly two years after two men were found dead in a smoldering house, a San Angelo man facing the death penalty in the case asked the court to delay the trial Thursday afternoon.
About 2 p.m. Thursday, March 11, 2021, Dwayne Chance Chadwick, 38, appeared in a hearing on two motions — to preclude the death penalty and to stay or abate the trial —though Zoom in the 51st District Court.
Chadwick is charged with the shooting deaths of Jared Anthony Lohse, 27, and Jack Harris Jr., 47, and setting a house on fire.
The first motion, to preclude the death penalty, was rooted in the defense of Chadwick's rights. Part of his team of attorneys, Robert Cowie, stated the pandemic harmed their ability to investigate the case, which in turn harmed Chadwick's rights.

"It's more than simple harm … (the rights have) been damaged in such a way by our inability to investigate so it can't be restored," Cowie said.
51st District Attorney Allison Palmer refuted Cowie's argument, stating the defense's motion is speculative.
"There's no authorization for the preclusion unless rights are actually violated," Palmer said.
Ray Keith, chief public defender with the Regional Public Defenders Office, explained that he decided the RPDO employees could not do field work since Nov. 1, 2020 due to safety concerns over COVID-19. Keith also mentioned interviewing witnesses over the phone or videoconferences "is not the best practice," he said.
"You're creating the problem, then asking the judge to rule in your favor," Palmer said to Keith.
RPDO trial teams generally go to a witness in person without scheduling a time. The in-person meetings help teams build relationships and learn things they would not have learned otherwise, Keith and Cowie stressed.
"It's critical to spend time in person to create the space where the witness will give information," said Dr. Elizabeth Vartkessian, a mitigation specialist and executive director of nonprofit Advancing Real Change Inc.
More:San Angelo man indicted in fatal crash; previously sentenced in serious vehicle accident
Vartkessian testified mitigation investigations have stalled across the country. While record gathering can continue, in-person interviews can't due to COVID-19 concerns. Even gathering records has been impacted due to furloughs and people not being in offices, she said.
"We've stopped field work," Vartkessian said, as did the RPDO. "I haven't been able to get some documents during the pandemic. You can't do one without the other, it wouldn't be a whole investigation."
Dusek ended the hearing by denying the motion to stay. She has taken the motion to preclude the death penalty under advisement and will review it. A hearing has been set for June 2021, when the court will hear progress and examine how COVID-19 is affecting the case.
"These are strange times, and so we will treat this case accordingly," Dusek said. "I don't plan to set (a trial) … I'd like to set us for another hearing to see if progress can be made."
Fire reveals two men fatally shot
About 3 a.m. March 20, first responders rushed to a burning house in the 4800 block of North Chadbourne Street. As the smoke cleared, first responders found Lohse and Harris dead. They were identified by their driver's licenses.
Lohse had been shot in the face twice and Harris once in the face, according to the autopsies. These shots were determined to be the causes of death.
On March 22, 2019, police arrested Chadwick, who they suspected early in the investigation. Chadwick lived at the home with a woman he dated and several other people, records state.
He was charged with with suspicion of murder, assault causes injury/family violence, and possession of a controlled substance, records state.
Housing issue led to homicides, person asked to burn evidence
Just before Lohse and Harris were killed, they walked into a convenience store on North Chadbourne Street. They spoke with a store employee, who lived at the home with a roommate and Chadwick.
The employee's roommate was allegedly delinquent on rent, so the homeowner wanted the roommate and Chadwick out by March 22. The employee would be allowed to stay, according to court documents.
The employee told police the men planned to head to the house, as Lohse planned to move there with his fiancée after the eviction.
Hours into her shift, multiple people contacted the employee to let her know her house was on fire.
Sometime between the shooting and the discovery of the men, a witness visited a residence in the 2700 block of Guadalupe Street. Chadwick told the witness he shot "Baby J" (Lohse) and "Chubby" (Harris) in their faces, records state.
Chadwick wanted the witness to go to the area of the killings and set the house on fire. When the witness refused, Chadwick stormed off, according to court documents.
In June 2019, an indictment charged Chadwick with capital murder of multiple persons, a first-degree felony punishable by death or life in prison, court documents state. He remains in Tom Green County Jail in lieu of a more than $2 million bond as of Tuesday, March 9, according to online jail records.
On July 26, 2019, 51st District Attorney Allison Palmer submitted the state's notice of intent to seek the death penalty if Chadwick is found guilty in the shooting deaths.
"We attempt to thoroughly research the defendant's history, and I take that information into consideration along with all the evidence we have relating to the nature and circumstances of the offense," Palmer said.
Chadwick was also arrested for suspicion of murder in the 2008 homicide of Kim Burton, but the charge was later dismissed.

We're going to create a cohesive look from just a few colours: a strong blue (#38DFFD), greyish purple (#B5B4CA), green (#77FA5C), bright red (#E34554) and golden colour (#FDC46C). Go to Adobe Color if you'd like to pick your own colours.
Open an image of your country into Photoshop Elements. Head to Filter>Filter Gallery>Cutout and choose Number of Levels: 8, Edge Simplicity: 7, Edge Fidelity: 1. This quickly reduces the map to a low-poly block for us to build upon.
With your map created, select the white with the Magic Wand. Hit the mask to remove. Duplicate and with the lower map, nudge 30 pixels left, 20 down. Clip a Solid Color Fill layer of #3c3c3c to the lower map, your selected green to the upper, and fill your background with your blue. Clip by Ctrl/ right-clicking a layer>Add Clipping Mask.
Of course, a large block of land isn't likely to be the same colour throughout. With a soft brush on a new layer, brush yellow around the hotter areas and grey in the colder areas, or areas with mountains. Reduce Opacity to 30% and clip these layers to the main green layer.
Let's create some curved rivers. Select a stretch with the Rectangular Marquee and fill blue, then create a circle, as shown above, with the Elliptical Marquee. Ctrl/ right-click, choose Transform Selection and hold Alt/Opt to make a circle within the circle. Mask to create a ring, then delete the excess.
Trees are easy to create and can be scattered across the map. Grab a hard brush, hold Shift and draw upwards in the gold colour. Continue holding Shift and click diagonally. Use a bigger, green brush behind this layer. Select half this green area, hit Cmd/ Ctrl+U and alter the colour slightly.
Using the technique for creating a ring of colour in step five, start making the wheel for the London Eye in white. With a hard brush, hold Shift and draw to create a pod. Merge these layers, duplicate, Transform (Cmd/Ctrl+T) and Rotate. Repeat this around the wheel.
The Eden Project consists of three grey circles – alter the colours slightly for each – merged together; then select the bottom with the Elliptical Marquee and mask. Draw hexagons with the Shape tool over the circles, set to Soft Light, 50% Opacity for the iconic look.
Using Marquees and the Polygonal Lasso, create a flag, clipping different colours to a main a rectangle. To give it the flying effect, go to Filter>Distort>Liquify, and Warp the left side of it downwards slightly, and the right side up, until it looks like this. Create the flagpole from brushes.
You can have fun scattering objects associated with the country. For an umbrella, make a curve as you did for the river, then make a big circle. Mask with the Elliptical Marquee as shown to complete the object.
Motion Blur can bring the likes of the London Eye to life, or this bow and arrow to represent Nottingham. This was created with a ring and hard brushes, before being merged, duplicated and then the blur being added from Filter>Blur>Motion Blur.
Using Soft Light clipping masks set to 25% Opacity, select black and white, and brush in soft colour over various objects to tone them a little, such as the buildings. The flag can also benefit from shading and lightening to make it stand out further.
If you wish to create a lens flare, make sure it's a geometric one. Go to the Shape tool and drag pentagons and hexagons of various colours, overlapping, in a straight line across the image. Set to Overlay and reduce the Opacity to 20%.
Finally, make some adjustments. Merge all and go to Filter>Other>High Pass, select Radius: 2.5px and set to Overlay to sharpen. Go to the Fill Layer icon, choose Levels and use the RGB channels to touch up the reds, blues and greens as a whole.


contig-stats.pl is a Perl script that will automatically describe features of a sequence assembly.
Randomly generates reads to aid in the testing of alignment programs. Reads are made from randomly reading chunks from the input fasta sequence. Can simulate heterozygous/polyploid reads, as well as paired-end reads.
Performs and outputs various statistical tests for each contig in a GSS basepile output. it is assumed that the information for each contig is 1000 bases long.
Removes all of the gaps (i.e. '-') that are common (i.e. at the same index) to all of the sequences in an aligned FASTA file. By default, the first sequence is considered the reference and is excluded from the analysis, but the number of sequences that are treated as such can be changed.
A script used in conjunction with the free aligners NUCmer and the free short read assembler YASRA. Creates a file with a similar to the format to that of the .qual file YASRA outputs, except each base can have multiple sets of quality values.
Runs the free short read aligner YASRA and organizes its output into a folder. Links to the input data are also saved in the output folder.
A pipeline for combining the free aligner NUCmer and the free short read assembler YASRA so full alignments can be made with one command. Alignreads uses the following scripts from the Liston lab: runyasra.py, sumqual.py, and qualtofa.py.
Note: For use with the older versions of YASRA.

Several months ago, I was contacted by the DesignEvo marketing team, asking me to review their product. And now that I've made some solid progress through my neverending request and publication queue, we are indeed doing that. DesignEvo is an online logo maker tool, with thousands of high-quality templates available, offering both free and paid services.
In general, the creation of logos is a somewhat niche need, but then, a lot of people like to have business cards, or they may wish to design an icon for their website or online service, and usually, this process involves working with an artist. But some may choose to style their own custom work, and this is where DesignEvo comes in. Let's see what gives.
DesignEvo does not require any registration. You can start creating logos right away. The site interface is fairly simple, resembling a canvas page with rudimentary editing controls, and a sidebar that gives you access to numerous templates, as well as various generic shapes and about 100 different fonts. You have the ability to use the existing options, sorted nicely into categories, search for specific design - and there are lots of those, or perhaps create a completely custom art, starting with a clean slate.
Now there's a catch. Creating good art requires imagination. You can just put things together, but they will not necessarily be stylish. You need to be able to visualize what you're doing, you need a good understanding of colors, you need to have some marketing skills, and wording your business slogan is not easy. You also have to appreciate how things look on the screen versus a small piece of printed paper in your hand, for instance. This is not strictly related to DesignEvo, but it's part of the game.
I invested time testing all sorts of permutations, using existing shapes and then adding my own text and whatnot. You can finely position elements on your canvas, and you get markers to help you align things to borders or the center point. You can also resize elements without losing quality - it's all vector graphics.
Background wise, it's either nothing or solid color, if you're using the little art toolbar above the interface - no option to use an existing shape or pattern for the background. For that, you need to add an element to your canvas and that will become your background.
You can preview how your logo will look like in different "forms" like letterhead, business card, website, and more. This should help you make a smarter decision on font size, clarity of the added shapes or text. Quite often, what you see on a 500x500px canvas is not what you will have on a typical document or a web page.
All in all, though, I was enjoying myself. DesignEvo is easy to use, and it's fun discovering fonts and shapes. There really is a huge repertoire of available art, and the fonts are very neat. Firefox did freeze and then crash once, but we can't blame DesignEvo for that, whatever its code.
I was quite pleased with my progress, but then, when I tried to download my art, the pestering started. One, you are limited to a 500x500px resolution for a free design, and if you want better than that, you need to purchase one of the paid options. This is not stated upfront, so the whole "foot in the door" approach is antagonizing. You are also redirected to the FotoJet page, which seems to be the main Pearl Mountain product.
Furthermore, the use of the free design is not really free. You must give credit and share DesignEvo on your blog or website. This means that if you want to utilize the service, there has to be a mention of the company, and that's fine, but that's not free. The word free means something else.
This also raises a question: If you buy services from DesignEvo, what is the actual license when it comes to shapes, designs or fonts? Is there an implied or explicit commercial license? Looking at the pricing page, the Basic package does not offer that, but the Plus one (USD39.99) does seem to include copyright ownership. Again, this makes for a tricky legal case perhaps, and it also means that if you really want to use a logo, the only option is the Plus package.
I haven't seen a option to use your own images - because they could make perfect sense in a custom logo, but there probably are copyright or licensing conditions that prevent DesignEvo from offering something like that.
You need to actually register and sign in to be able to save your work, otherwise your designs will be lost if you navigate away. That should also be mentioned when you begin your artistic adventures. Moreover, if you add long text strings, they will overflow and/or touch canvas borders, and this can be a bit annoying.
Lastly, there's a question of privacy. I am wondering what happens to your designs while you're working. After all, people may choose to add all sorts of information to their logos, and while technically that information ought to be public, that does not mean you expect it to be accessible everywhere. Does DesignEvo keep or log some of the strings or art used?
DesignEvo logo maker is an okay piece of software. It's easy and fun to use, although you need a bit of artistic flair to achieve good results. The app combines simplicity with power features in a good way, and the available catalog of shapes and fonts is quite impressive. A great starting pointing for online logo creation.
The experience is marred by the free-not-free step at the very end. Once you've already done a lot of hard work, you learn that your expectations are wrong. Free isn't free, and copyright ownership costs money. Perhaps that is meant to sway people into actually buying the non-free packages, but in my case, it actually created the opposite effect. I have nothing against paying for high-quality services, which DesignEvo is, but the process must be clear, transparent and honest.
Emotional and financial aspects aside, if you do want to design and style your own logos, DesignEvo offers a very flexible, intuitive set of tools and art work to get you enthused and engaged. There are a few small things that can be improved vis-a-vis background styling and text alignment, but those are small niggles that you can easily sort out on your own. The only missing piece is, do you have the right kind of imagination to create the right kind of compelling visuals for your site or business? Well, that is something no software can offer. See you around, fellas.

'Miracle' baby born in Philippine typhoon rubble; world sends emergency relief to battered nation
Tacloban, Philippines: Emily Sagalis cried tears of joy after giving birth to a 'miracle' girl in a typhoon-ravaged Philippine city, then named the baby after her mother who went missing in the storm. The girl was born Monday in a destroyed airport compound that was turned into a makeshift medical centre, with her bed a piece of dirty plywood resting amid dirt, broken glass, twisted metal, nails and other debris.

Cyberbullying is a serious issue. Parents need to be able to recognize if their child is getting cyberbullied, but it is just as important to recognize if their child is the one doing the cyberbullying. Just as parents can be a big help to their child if they are getting bullied, they can also help their child understand that cyberbullying is very hurtful.
Quickly switch screens or close programs when you walk by.
Use the computer at all hours of the night.
Get unusually upset if they cannot use the computer.
Avoid discussions about what they are doing.
Use multiple online accounts or use an account that is not their own.
Stay involved with your child's online life by having conversations about appropriate behavior online. Share stories of those who have been bullied. Help your child understand that bullying in any form is painful.
Together we can stop cyberbullying!

The NEWT PBX Story
The Philosophy Behind It All
"To me, computer science is not a science; it's more of an art". Gary Handelman of Fibernetics makes that distinction when asked about what working in the tech industry means to him. It's an approach he's used since he first began exploring the mystical wonders of his high school's Apple II computer almost 30 years ago, and it's the same approach he used when he invented the very first business phone system offered by Fibernetics, better known today as the NEWT Managed PBX. To truly appreciate the groundbreaking innovation Gary has done for Fibernetics, it's important to first take a look at the journey that led him to computers, telecommunications, and ultimately Fibernetics.
Gary Handelman
A Passion Is Born
Gary's first exposure to the world of computers was in 1978 while he was attending high school in Quebec, where a petition started by some older students would serve as the first step in developing Gary's love of computers. As Gary explains, "a bunch of kids in the older grades, in grades 10 and 11, petitioned the school board to get a computer, because there was nothing back then". They ended up succeeding with that petition, and the school was awarded a new Apple II computer which they placed in a storage room for the school's chemistry class. It was here among "things in buckets and pails of formaldehyde" as he describes it, that Gary independently taught himself how to program. Even though he had become quite comfortable with computers and programming by the time he graduated from high school, a skill that at the time was very unique, he followed his original path and enrolled at McGill University in Montreal in physics.
Upon graduation Gary came to a crossroad when considering what possible career to pursue. On the one hand, he could become a physicist, or he could go after what started out as just a high school hobby that had quickly grown into something much bigger: computer science. "When I went to look for jobs at the university resource center, there were tons of computer jobs out there . . . by the sheer numbers, it just made sense to pursue a career in computer science."
He took a job with a small company that was developing Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) software. Within just two years, he had progressed from a programming analyst to, as he puts it, "writing and maintaining everything within the company." He realized that the user interface being used at this company was inefficient, which lead him to independently redesign it from the ground up, using his own mark-up language throughout the program. It was at this job that Gary discovered he had a unique talent not only to conceive of innovative concepts and have a clear idea as to how they could work, but to turn these ideas into reality and have them implemented. This excited Gary because it was "a matter of creativity."
This discovery would serve as the basis for his decision to leave the small company and taking a full-time job working as a systems analyst for the repair and overhaul centre for Rolls Royce in Montreal. Concurrently, he started a small company with a coworker that managed material safety data sheets. Between 1990 and 2000, Gary was balancing two full-time jobs, writing code and software for both companies. How much code you ask? According to Gary, "probably over 100,000 lines of code that was in production all over the place". He was ultimately recruited by Pepsi Bottling Group in the early 2000's, but after a short 18 month stint, he decided to invest all of his time into the company that he had built. It was there that difficulty with finding a proper phone system to best suit his growing company shifted his attention to telecom.
Gary's home workstation
A Problem In Desperate Need Of Solving
"I started looking around, and I was appalled at the cost; even upgrading the current phone system was just astronomical," Gary said. He realized that there was massive potential for improvement in the telecommunications industry as a whole. His previous 20 years of experience working with user interfaces gave him the idea for the Private Branch Exchange, or PBX. Gary quickly started up his own company, using software he'd programmed and designed himself, and sold these systems under his company's name, Voipra.
At this time, Fibernetics co-founders Mike Brown, Jody Schnarr and John Stix were in desperate need of a solution for both the call centre they were planning to open, as well as their main office. They also needed a solution that could handle all the businesses that were part of the Fibernetics Group of Companies. Since their company was also fairly new, they were looking for a solution that would save them as much as possible on costs, since the cost of phone systems then currently on the market was prohibitive.
Mike began to search online for someone that could help solve this problem. "I found 'Gary Handelman' all over the place and I thought 'I have to talk to this Gary Handelman guy'." Initially they bartered services: Fibernetics provided cost-free Telco services in the Montreal area for Voipra and in return Gary designed and programmed a PBX for the call center in the Dominican Republic as well as one for the Fibernetics office at 30 Duke Street West in Kitchener, Ontario, and made sure the two were always connected. No money was exchanged between Fibernetics and Voipra in these early stages, and looking back on it, Mike is appreciative of the faith Gary had in Fibernetics: "never meeting us before, Gary took a leap of faith" Mike recalls, "for not exchanging any money; Gary was always available and always so receptive."
In May of 2006, Jody met Gary in Montreal to discuss setting up a server at the Group Telecom colocation facility in Montreal. It was over a few Guinness that Jody got the chance to explain the basis of Fibernetics business, where it was headed and the big things in store. Gary was impressed by Jody's vision, but it wasn't until two years later, in May of 2008, that Gary officially said, "I'm in," and joined Fibernetics.Between this initial meeting and officially joining Fibernetics, Gary had an idea that was too promising to ignore. Using his prior experience creating user interfaces, he wanted to design a PBX that would reduce the level of understanding to a simpler level, while also making the PBX better than existing systems. He quickly jotted down his ideas onto a napkin and that original schematic served as the foundation of the product that would become known as the NEWT Managed PBX.
The napkin that started it all
The Blessing In Disguise
There was an initial problem Gary faced when he joined Fibernetics, since his former company Voipra was still operational. He couldn't use the same code he had written for Voipra for the Fibernetics PBX. "I took that as a positive and decided to start with a blank slate and build everything from the ground up," he explained. It was much easier this time around because of "knowing the stuff that I've learned over the last couple of years: the pitfalls, the shortcomings, and the stuff that worked." Gary went to work, writing code for what would be the first business phone system offered by Fibernetics, a day Mike remembers like it was yesterday. "Gary began to type, and then he turned the computer to me, with a wide grin on his face, and said 'this is the start of our new PBX'."
Working with the team of in-house developers, in just three months the code for the PBX had been written and Fibernetics was already starting to install the PBX in other offices located at the 30 Duke Street West building.
Fast forward to today and the NEWT Managed PBX – Business Phone System now services almost 17,000 live extensions. It has saved over 2,000 businesses thousands of dollars on their monthly telecom costs. Gary, with his crew of coders, are constantly upgrading, revising and introducing new features to the NEWT Business Phone System.
When Gary reflects back on his journey with the PBX that began with an idea jotted down on a napkin, he can't help but feel good about what he's accomplished. "I feel very proud that the stuff I've written is being used and enjoyed by so many people, and that they're relying on it. You don't go lightly into a phone system when it's something you're leveraging your own business on".
He also recognizes the recurring theme that first began in the storage room of his high school chemistry lab: "it was all down to having a vision in your head and then turning that vision into something concrete, something that people could use, something that was really cool when it was running and something that people enjoyed using".
The NEWT Managed PBX Story is an example of innovation at Fibernetics. This innovation allows NEWT to deliver happiness and connections everyday by being awesome.

Alternative New Media for the Gulf South
BREAKING: Theriot Slabs Tom Wilkinson. Stay tuned to Slabbed for Updates.
"Pictures" or not Mr Wilkinson simply became too hot. We've got more coming folks as this story is still developing and we should be able to provide a bit more context to the events. For the here and now lets visit with Richard Rainey who has the story for the Times Picayune:
Tom Wilkinson, Jefferson Parish's embattled top attorney, was placed on paid administrative leave today, interim Parish President Steve Theriot said. Theriot said Peggy Barton will be the acting parish attorney. He wouldn't comment further on Wilkinson's suspension.
"It's a personnel issue," he said. "I don't want to put myself or the parish in a (bad) position."
You already have put the parish in a bad position Mr Theriot. I won't speculate whether you realize that yet but if you really want to do right by the citizens of Jefferson parish you sir should resign as we continue:
Wilkinson also served as the director of former Parish President Tim Coulon's political campaign committee. While that role ended in 2007, according to records with the secretary of state, parish law appears to bar all employees from political activities.
However, the law has some exceptions, including "administrative assistants" to the parish president. It's unclear if Wilkinson falls under that category as an "at will" employee appointed first by Coulon and retained by Broussard.
The Coulon campaign committee listed the Joseph S. Yenni Building, the headquarters for the parish government in Elmwood, as its formal address.
Coulon, parish president from 1995 to 2004, also was an insurance agent associated with Whitmer's firm.
When Broussard ordered an investigation into Whitmer's insurance practice last year, Wilkinson recused himself, saying Whitmer's wife, Dawn, insured two properties he partly owned. He also said he executed the will of Whitmer's parents.
I think anyone following this has been vexed it took Theriot so long to do what was right. Conventional wisdom is that Mr. Wilkinson will be indicted by the feds. There is more to this story and while we wait for updates I'll share some rank conjecture based upon what we know. Wilkinson has done lots of double-dealing for two administrations and most likely has dirt on every major player in the Parish as a result. If he sings certain people who think they are in the clear will be compromised. Frankly and as several of our commenters have remarked, most of this shady stuff was done out in the open so in the scheme of things it matters not about Wilkinson. Our readers will understand more why I say that when I revisit River Birch next post.

More family fun
Watch the Magic-8 Ball:
Nancy Cassagne is Theriot's Wilkinson's sister in law.
Cassagne goes to work for West Jeff.
Byron Lee's assistant (and what else?) Pam Watson goes to manage JP Community Health Clinics, where she is hired by…. Nancy Cassagne.
Theriot's daughter is married to a Dr. Langhetee at JP Community Health Clinics.
Now, Pam Watson has had some problems in terms of money stolen from JP Community Health Clinics.
Now, Wilkinson couldn't exactly evaluate and provide a recommendation on the Whitmer/Lagniappe "thing" because of ***conflict of interest.
Now can Theriot reasonably be expected to provide an impartial evaluation of Wilkinson? Or does he have a conflict of interest?
Guys sorry: correction: Nancy Cassagne is Wilkinson's sister in law.
nowdoucit says:
Thank you for prompt correction, telemachus. I've noted it in your first comment.
whitmergate says:
Mr. Theriot is a creature of the corrupt political culture embedded in Jefferson Parish which he fully embraced; it is his albatross. His conduct of late is analogous to observing the the ship's captain rearrange the deck furniture on the Titanic. I await the day the Feds revisit and investigate the illegal and arrogant appointment of him by the Parish Council contrary to the "Sunshine" laws of Louisiana. Those laws pertain to the open meetings requirements. I can hear it now as Mr. Theriot is being question relative to his role in that conspiracy : "Mr. Theriot what did you know and when did you know it ? "
It is Mr. Theriot's reluctance to censure Mr. Wilkinson till now that is suspect. Mr. Theriot was put there to maintain and bolster the stonewall for the status quo, which he himself is a charter member. Wilkinson was the point man for the ongoing drama we know as "River Birch". Mr. Wilkinson remaining Parish Attorney has become too toxic for the principals involved.
The following is but one path in a turn in the River Birch landfill labyrinth. Wilkinson conspired in tandem with Whitmer to facilitate the promoting of an RFP. I can remember Whitmer's infamous quip comparing the request for the RFP to a fishing trip for the best deal. The pond was stacked and Heebe was hooked. Rainey's article in Jan. 14, 2009, Times Picayune sets up the story of this myriad of deception.
RFP No.176 is now in motion. A RFP evaluation committee is created. The voting members are: Tom Wilkinson, Parish Attorney and Secretary of the Evaluation Committee, Alan Gandolfi, the Council's Budget guy; and John Fos ? . They elected not to afford Marnie Winter, Director of Environmental Affairs, a voting status. We now know from a recent article reporting on the Council's call for a contract for a consultant to review the River Birch fiasco, that other than Ms. Winter, a PHD in the field, the three voting members had absolutely no expertise or experience to critique the RFPs in question. That's lawyers for ya'… know everything about nothing.
On December 22, 2008, Mr. Wilkinson sends a letter to then Council Chairman John Young reporting the the final scores of the two companies, River Birch 274/300 and Concrete Busters 143/300. To date no one seems to be able to find the individual work sheets of these esteemed committee members. Hmmmmmmmmm
Hearing Mr. Wilkinson's mumbo-jumbo spiel as he tries to convince Val Bracy during her interview of him several weeks ago that River Birch is a bonanza to the taxpayers of Jefferson Parish is mind boggling. Let's see: 1) we pay $160,000,000 to River Birch a year, compounded by the CPI index at 3%-5% per year for twenty-five years; is that near $500,000,000 Sop ? 2) breach the contract with Waste Management that has cost JP taxpayers Hundreds of Thousands of dollars in legal fees to law firms that Mr. Wilkinson can later hit on for campaign contributions in support of those who keep him in office, 3) have the taxpayers of JP be liable for any damages that Waste Management may be awarded 4) and by far the real golden egg, JP closes it's landfill establishing a MONOPOLY for River Birch ! Personally, I think Mr. Wilkinson was manipulating putting a peeled banana up the JP taxpayers butt.
Unfortunately for us, this is just one snippet in a very complex web of political power brokering relating to the River Birch drama. It's all garbage………
? CORRECTION and ILLUMINATION: A voting member of the Committee, David Fos, a Wilkinson weenie, who is an Asst Parish Attorney for the last 2 years, at a salary of $76,000 plus… whatever.
Peggy Barton, acting Parish Attorney ? First Asst to Mr. Wilkinson… okay, we'll discuss that later…
>Peggy Barton, acting Parish Attorney ? First Asst to Mr. Wilkinson
Well thank you Pelican…the figure Mr. Wilkinson is touting is $6.3 million a year for 25 years at a CPI of %3-%5 per annum. He stays on fixed on repeating the sum total will be $160,000,000 over the 25 years and what a great deal it is, When pressed over and over by Bracy that the $160,000,000 is not dispositive of the compounded CPI index, Mr. Wilkinson finally admits that the $160,000,000 figure does not represent the compounded CPI add on. So whether it's %3, %4 or %5 the figure will be hovering around the half of billion mark. Thank you Mr. Wilkinson for finagling such a good deal for your friends !
I'm tying to keep up! Half-a-billion is trash talk? OMG Hope those pigs I sent your way didn't end up in the landfill.
Sock Puppet says:
And remember where David Fos cut his teeth . . . as a prosecutor (ha ha) in the Kenner City Court . . . I mean Mayor's Court.
Yesterday's article on the council members' expenses should be the basis for a further investigation into each one (except shockingly, Louie Congemi) and where ALL of this money was spent. That article seemed to fly under radar and lack the shock appeal it should have. With everything else going on in JP Govt., I guess it's kind of like throwing a match into a raging inferno.
Pelican's, very french girlfriend, Maltilde, who just came thru the door shouting at deBrief, "Je t'emmerdede, espece de porc a la manque". Sort of meaning, ya'll have been drinking too much Rebel Yell. They are having a convoluted language argument about him having to go back to DC about a Jefferson Parish story….Hmmmmmm. He tell's me I'm computer stupid because I didn't know how to save the draft of this post I lost trying to research a newspaper article by Paul Rioux,04/14/2009, about some JP Council pay scale scheme Broussard and Whitmer cooked up. Taking a gulp of Rebel Yell, I yelled back, "Je n'en ai rien a foutre, espece de depuceleur de vierges" Maltilde leaves the room, and Pelican passes the bottle. I need to finish up on some Wilkinson tid bits.
From a period of January 6, 2007 up and thru January 2010, Mr. Wilkinson's salary increased by $70,000 plus, including two "discretionary raises" of $12,000 and $40,000. Like Mr. Whitmer's obscene raises, they were received in the shadow of Mr. Broussard's term to be ended in 2010. What we did not know then, but we know now is, that even with the resignation of Mr. Broussard, Mr. Whitmer ,as a result of his unconscionable raises, will receive a retirement check in the amount of $172,000 a year, and he's only 50 years old ! And Mr. Wilkinson, put on administrative leave with pay at an amount of $189,000, will receive about $6000 every 2 weeks, while he continues to practice law full time.
In a rather revealing interview Mr. Wilkinson had with Val Bracy of Channel 8, Fox News, we learn that Mr. Wilkinson believes he earned these huge raises within the last 34 months because he has worked hard the last 15 years as Parish Attorney. He acknowledges that most people get, maybe, 4% to 5% cost of living raises ( we know now the Broussard/Whitmer Administration reduced that to 2% to 0%). Mr. Wilkinson, in reply to Val Bracy's criticism of the amount of monies he received states: "Val I don't appologize for it ok. " However a more magnanimous Mr. Wilkinson tells us that if Mr. Theriot and /or the Council were of a mind that such raises were excessive he would be respectful of their decision to rescind them, although he may not agree with it.
Thank you Mr. Wilkinson. And that's just what Mr. Theriot and the Council should do !

Over $1 million to help Tairāwhiti youth into employment
Hon Willie Jackson
Employment Minister Willie Jackson announced today that Tairāwhiti rangatahi will benefit from an investment made by the Government's He Poutama Rangatahi (HPR) scheme.
The funding will go to the Tautua Village, Kauneke programme and the Matapuna Supported Employment Programme which will fund 120 rangatahi over two years.
"Both programmes work to help young people in danger of long term unemployment find their feet in the world of work," Willie Jackson said.
"Tautua Village is focussed on helping develop leadership skills, using a Te Ao Māori and Pasifika framework to teach work readiness skills, while the Kauneke project is an expansion of that vision to build employment readiness amongst hard to place rangatahi including Māori, Pacific, Rainbow and those with a disability.
The Matapuna project is also an expansion on an existing successful programme and will work with rangatahi who are in danger of becoming unemployed when they turn 18.
The programme will be delivered in partnership with Trust Tairawhiti and will not only help develop essential employability skills but will also support those that complete the programme into sustainable employment.
"These are brilliant examples of local people working hard to help local rangatahi. It's essential that Government funds the right programmes, led by the community to help tackle the significant economic and social challenges that Tairāwhiti faces" said Willie Jackson.

Oliver White (Editor) – His Unreliable Memoirs – 'Red Shift'
Red Shift by Alan Garner
I was a little apprehensive of working with John McKenzie. Like any good editor I'd looked at a previous film. It was about the Orange Order in Glasgow, and was very good, tough stuff. I vividly remember looked at the 'synched' rushes. Take 1, so, so; Take 2, better; Take 3, better still! Take 4, perfect. Then horror! Take 5. Now I'd worked on quite a bit of twaddle, such as 'Nanny' (actually, that had some good bits) and the Takes would go on to 8 or 9. After Take 4, the poor actors would 'fall over a cliff', because they didn't know what was expected of them. Now a Take 5! It was even better than perfect. Then he stopped. I now knew it was going to be good. I don't normally like directors 'sitting in' on the first cut. I want them to be a fresh pair of eyes, but John just sat at the back of the room, read 'The Times' and moaned about the fuel consumption of his Volvo/DAF 340. (I could have told him the belt drive would give 15 mpg….) It was obvious how to cut it, as it was so well directed. Then the work started! It is/was set in three time periods. We sub-divided and rearranged them to make it, hopefully, more interesting. We put the 'in's and outs' of each scene on different coloured cards, and blu-tacked them all over the wall! We were both nervous as to Alan Garner's reaction to John altering his precious story – but he said, 'John, it was my script, but it's your film!' I think he was quite happy.
I'd stolen a huge blow-up of Quatermass I from the basement – ex Pebble Mill at One. My assistant, Claire Doukin, coloured in the dreadful Space Slime consuming Westminster Abbey …. It's now in my garage.
Oliver White (Editor) – His Unreliable Memoirs – A Touch of Eastern Promise
A Touch of Eastern Promise by Tara Prem, directed by nice Michael Lindsay-Hogg
It was ok I guess, but all that matters is Michael's WATCH. It was wafer thin, and curved round his wrist. The winder was a jewel. It had cost £800, and been given him by The Beatles for directing 'Let It Be'. When going on holiday he'd rung the suppliers, Cartier, and asked, 'Is it shock-proof?' 'Oh no sir.' 'Is it waterproof?' 'Certainly NOT sir. Please regard it as a piece of jewellery…'
Oliver White (Editor) – his unreliable memoirs: 'Shakespeare or Bust'
Shakespeare or Bust by Peter Terson, directed by lovely Brian Parker
I'd cut 'The Fishing Party', directed by Michael Simpson, who was at that stage director of the Birmingham Repertory Theatre. So it was great to return to such excellent material, working with Brian Parker. A party of us went to see Brian Glover wrestle in Wolverhampton. Now Brian had had trouble being allowed to 'have a go', until one night the continental Super Star didn't turn up, so they said, 'You're on! But you're not Brian Glover, you are Leon Arras!' So that's the name Brian fought under, until one dreadful night a great Frenchman turned up, poked him in the chest, and said, 'Vous est NOT Leon Arras, pour moi est le REAL Leon Arras!' After that it was 'Brian Glover' who took to the ring! The night we went was the most hilarious of my life. When Brian was on top NO ONE could have looked more smug and arrogant! How we boo-ed! Then with one flick, he was on the floor, being squashed! NO ONE could have looked more abject, and hard done by. We were weeping with laughter…….
When Peter Terson came to see the rough cut. He was covered in blood. We didn't like to ask what had happened. Had he murdered someone?

Kartik Aaryan Speaks on The Rajkumar Hirani Sexual Harassment Row, Coffee Date With Sara Ali Khan And Film With Imtiaz Ali
Kartik Aaryan makes some interesting statements here
Published: January 19, 2019 4:24 PM IST
By India.com Entertainment Desk Email
Actor Kartik Aaryan has refused to comment on the sexual harassment allegations against filmmaker Rajkumar Hirani. The actor was present at a PETA event recently when he was asked to share his views on the accusations made. The actor, who rose to fame with his performance in Pyar Ka Punchnama, said that it won't be right on his part to comment on the matter before it is 'legally proven'.Also Read - Allu Arjun Starrer Ala Vaikuntapurramuloo's Hindi Theatrical Release Called Off Due To Kartik Aaryan's Shehzada | Official Statement
IANS quoted Kartik saying, "We all have been fans of his work. I think till the time it is legally proven by the court of law, we can't comment about it. I think there has to be a proper legal route to investigate the matter but it's sad if such cases are happening not just in our industry but also in some other industry. I am totally against it."

Earlier, even actor Dia Mirza said the same. She also stated that it would be unfair on her part to comment on the issue without knowing about the details. Also Read - After Sooryavanshi, Rohit Shetty Moves to OTT With 'Mission Frontline'
For the uninitiated, the 56-year-old filmmaker has been accused of sexually harassing a female assistant over a period of six months while filming Sanju. The director has denied the allegations saying it's a complete shock for him and it saddens him to know the accuser decided to take the media-route instead of initiating a legal process.

Meanwhile, Kartik also opened up on something which has been surrounding his name lately. The actor talked about going on a date with actor Sara Ali Khan. He said that he is ready to go on a coffee date with actress Sara Ali Khan, who expressed her wish to date Kartik in an episode of a popular celebrity chat show.
When asked whether he wants to go on a date with Sara, Kartik said, "As far as coffee date is concerned, Sara's mother (Amrita Singh) has told her that 'you should stop talking about it because you have said it many times and now let Kartik react on it'. So, I can just say that I am ready for a coffee date. Sara just needs to tell me the time and place."
Kartik also talked about the rumours of being paired with Sara in filmmaker Imtiaz Ali's next. The actor said that he won't like to give any clarity on this as the director is the best person to reveal what's the truth. Addressing the reports, he said, "I think this question could be better answered by Imtiaz sir about. Till the time, he doesn't give conformation on the same I won't be be able to comment on it."
On the work front, Kartik will soon be seen in Luka Chuppi, which has him paired with actor Kriti Sanon. The actor has also signed Pati Patni Aur Woh with Bhumi Pednekar and Ananya Pandey.

I'm in sunny New Hampshire, USA, meeting with leadership here at the IAPP world headquarters as we engage in planning for 2017 and beyond. One thing I probably don't speak about enough in these notes is the amazing staff the IAPP has assembled to help support all of you privacy professionals as you go about your daily work.
As the conduit for your voice here in Europe, I can tell you that I've been advocating strongly for more resources to help with the incredibly difficult tasks you have ahead of you in complying with the GDPR, self-certifying under the Privacy Shield, and even doing "simple" things like budgeting for the year ahead and coming up with your own priorities and goals. What will or should the DPO function look like in your organization? How do you get c-level executive buy in? What tools are on the marketplace to help you multiply and manage your resources? How should our training and certification products be adjusted as data protection and privacy matures in Europe as both a profession and a social construct?
As always, if you have thoughts on these matters, please make sure to pass them along to me so that I can filter and process those thoughts through the organization.
And, of course, there is the news of the day, with Privacy Shield now fully operational, and companies now fully engaged in understanding the self-certification process, and working through the many steps necessary to do it correctly.
It will be interesting to see how companies evaluate the risk of adopting Privacy Shield, given the comments of the Hamburg DPA, as detailed in the excellent story put together by our European contributor David Meyer below. Is all the work with it for what may be a year of operational benefit? If your company had to put a percentage on the likelihood of Privacy Shield existing in one, three or five years' time, what would that number be? And how does that number factor into your entire organization's strategic and operational decision-making?
Every organization is having to answer these questions for themselves, hedging bets with things like standard contractual clauses, which have their own risks associated with them.
As always, the IAPP is here to help you with these decisions and, again, please let me know if there are resources we could be providing. We won't be able to do everything you ask, but we'll start checking off the requests as fast as we can.

Van based franchise Prokil announce Brighton Franchisees
in General Home Improvements
Can you tell us a little about your working background?
Myself (Nathan Crombie) and Wai both come from retail industry back grounds and have previously been retail store managers for ten years plus. Wai was a store manager for Curry's, Argos, Iceland and a Department head of World Duty Free at Gatwick Airport. I have been store manager for Sainsbury's, Iceland, Superdrug and first assistance at McDonald's.
Why were you looking at self-employment?
After many years of being managers and following the strict regime and adhering to the corporate world, we wanted to venture in to a business where we could make the decisions and take control of our own destiny. The challenge of running our own business and not being held back and working for someone else was a goal that took too long to achieve.
We wanted to be able to set our own targets, be in control of our own destiny and achieve the aspirationswe so longed and desired to reach.
Why did you choose to look at a franchise?
With the option of a franchise, we believed this gave us the strong footing to move into an industry without the background knowledge or experience. The franchise allowed us to have the confidence to venture in to self-employment and take the huge step, knowing there was the support, structure and guidance for us to latch on to at any point.
Having the support network, people there to offer and share ideas was the major incentive to go down the franchise route. As we did not have the building back ground, going into an unknown territory for us, looking at franchises made sense and would enable us to build a successful business, with a strong brand name and years of experience.
What was it about Prokil in particular that made you want to join them?
After an initial conversation regarding the business structure, Prokil ticked a lot of the boxes we were looking for. A business that had a proven track record, passionate owners and a successful brand in their current regions, all wrapped up in a business that had huge profit potential.
The growth and profit margins in this business were the main factors which made this more appealing as we ventured further in to the viability and validity of the business. After speaking with Carlo (MD of Prokil) in particular, the passion behind his ambition and drive to make the franchise a success, gave us the confidence that the support network would be in place and their ambitions matched exactly what we were looking for.
How was the research process in looking at Prokil, what did you need to do?
We had a few informal conversations in the first instance and this then led to more formal business meetings and sharing some financial figures to back up what was being told to us. With each conversation and meeting, this led us further to the belief that this would work and would be a business and franchise worth investing in.
We had a couple of trips down to the Bournemouth office to meet the team, directors and franchise manager Alex. It was at these meeting we discussed how they would see the franchise working, what they expected from us and in turn, what we would want from them. After exploring the business model and plan they had in place and looking at the projections and profitability of the model, it reinforced what had been discussed in the early days.
Having a look at the office set up, also reassured us that there were people in place to support, guide and share ideas with in the early days to get the business up and running.
Once you became a franchisee, how was the training?
The training that was carried out with our surveyor was very beneficial and the feedback from this was positive. The ways of working, knowledge, exposure to what the job would entail was very pragmatic and provided him with the skills and knowledge to transfer this in to our own franchise.
How have the first few months been?
We have had a very successful few months and in essence we have achieved more than we expected and the business is developing and growing in a way that has exceeded our expectations. We have found a consistent customer base and built good relationships with local business and forged excellent connections and referrals to support our growth and provide a stable platform to build for the long term.
Structuring the business in a manner which delivers what we envisioned has been key, in growing in the right way and delivering a consistent service level to reinforce everything we want to achieve.
What has the support from the franchisor been like?
The support has been what we expected and has never fallen short of what was discussed in the early meetings. As mentioned, the passion shown in ensuring the success of our franchise has not fallen away and this has helped us achieve what we have so far.
There are learnings from all parties as we are the first franchisees and I believe the structure and relationships between the franchise and franchisor will change and adapt with the growth of our business and expansion on the franchise network.
The motivation, support, passion and belief from the franchisors is there and it is building a structure for expansion and growth of the franchise network which needs establishing as the branches grow.
What advice would you give other people looking at franchising and Prokil?
It is a very viable business and one with excellent growth potential, margin, profit and expansion in to other areas. We have not looked back since joining the Prokil network and I would encourage others to explore this further.
As with any business, having a clear structure from day one is integral and ensuring that the milestones and targets set are achievable is key. The business turnover can be unpredictable due to the nature of the work, with some larger jobs and then lots of smaller jobs, so having enough working capital and budgeting is key.
Grow the business in the right way, take time to find the right people to carry out the works and ensure jobs are completed right first time.
What plans do you have for the business in the future?
We want to continue to grow and have the come to business in Brighton for all the damp proofing needs. Being known for the workmanship, service, standard of work and overall customer satisfaction is what will drive our business.
To grow the business, increase turnover and to enable us to create a business that is fruitful and fuels our ambitions is what keeps us going on a day to day basis.

VP Harris meets with black feminist activist who said 'f*** the white women' and accused Trump supporters 'wearing a white sheet': Discussed civil rights and voting issues
Vice President Kamala Harris met with black feminist activist Cora Masters Barry and other members of the Black Women Leaders and Allies group on Monday
Barry, 76, had previously said 'F*** white women' in a Zoom call in November 2020 while discussing the election
The statement had come after the group discussed the fact that white women had predominantly voted for Republican candidates in the past two elections
She had also slammed Trump supporters and emphasized the importance of having Biden in office as it would Harris the first black female vice president
By Tommy Taylor For Dailymail.Com
Vice President Kamala Harris held a private meeting with black feminist activist Cora Masters Barry – who publicly said 'f*** white women' on a Zoom call before last year's presidential election in which she accused Donald Trump supporters of 'wearing a white sheet.'
Barry, 76, attended the meeting held by Harris on Monday along with other members of the Black Women Leaders and Allies, where they discussed topics such as civil rights and voting issues.
The wife of late DC mayor Marion Barry made the infamous derogatory comment last November during a public Zoom call about the 2020 election with Rolling Out CEO Munson Steed and fellow activist Melanie Campbell.
'F*** white women,' Barry said in the Zoom call. 'Excuse me — forget the white women. They're going to do what the white men tell them to do.'
'They be smiling in their faces, they want to stay in charge. I don't care nothing about them, we gotta do what we gotta do,' she added.

Barry had previously said 'F*** white women' on a Zoom call in November 2020 while discussing the 2020 election with Rolling Out CEO Munson Steed and fellow activist Melanie Campbell
Barry uttered the profanities during a discussion about white women predominantly voting for Republican candidates in the last two elections.
Barry had been an advocate and donor for Joe Biden during the 2020 election and was an appointee of DC Mayor Muriel Bowser.
During the Zoom call, she discussed her views on Biden and his opponent, then-President Donald Trump, whose supporters she accused of being members of the Ku Klux Klan.
'I'm not saying everyone who voted for Trump is wearing a white sheet, but they got one in their closet and it comes out when we start messing with the economic value or the balance of power.'
In terms of Biden, Barry had emphasized the importance of getting him into office as it would ensure Harris's position as the first black vice president.
For the future, she said that her group has 'got to start organizing to make sure that the next President of the United States is a Black woman.'
'And that's not going to happen if we don't reach all of our Black people, because they're the ones who are going to put her in there,' she said. 'Those White folks ain't gonna put her in there.'
Campbell, who is also part of the group, is seen walking with Barry and other voting rights activists for the 'Day of Action on Capitol Hill' event
A year later, Barry has achieved her goal as she sat across from Harris in a meeting with her and the group.
The 20-person group also met with Harris in July to discuss similar issues on voting reform rights.
Campbell, who was also present for the meeting, reportedly discussed changes to voting rights reform and increasing engagement.
She had stirred controversy of her own after supporting former Women's March co-chair Tamika Mallory, a supporter of Nation of Islam leader Louis Farrakhan.
'As I continue to grow and learn as both an activist and as a woman, I will continue to grapple with the complicated nature of working across ideological lines and the question of how to do so without causing harm to vulnerable people,' she had said in response to the controversy.
Farrakhan, who has made anti-Semitic statements in the past, had also voiced support for Barry's efforts to get people to vote at Aretha Franklin's funeral in 2018.

We use our hand press to set rivets and snaps, and punch holes in thick, tough materials. The problem – we only have one press, and have to change out the tooling on it everytime we want to punch a hole and then set a snap or rivet in it. We needed another press. I saw a simple press at at a leather shop in the Bay, and decided to make one out of scrap metal.
This is a worn-out towing hitch from a tractor. It will become the body for our rivet and snap-setting hand-press. The bandsaw is from a junk store down by Yuba City.
Rough-cut with a torch, and ready for grinding.
After grinding the edges of the body, I welded on a piece of pipe that will become the cylinder that the press shaft slides up and down in, and also, the pipe will hold the anvil at the bottom that carries the bottom half of two-part snap and rivet-setting dies. I needed the top and bottom shafts to be perfectly centered with eachother, so I used this single piece of pipe, and then cut the center section out once it was welded.
I had a piece of hot-rolled steel from another project that is the the right size to fit inside of the pipe cylinder to act as the 'ram' for the press. I couldn't accurately drill a hole in the center of it with my drill press, so I took it to a small machine shop in North Chico called 'Machine Works' and they reamed out a 3/8″ hole in the center of it for me. Most snap and rivet setting tools have 3/8″ shafts – these tools slide into the 3/8″ bored shaft.
Here I have cut away the un-needed sections of pipe, and cut a length of the steel rod to act as our bottom anvil, or tool-holder. Notice that the anvil fits loosely in the pipe.
This piece will become the mount for the handle – on top of the press body.
Cut out with a torch.
The pipe that I used for the cylinder was welded pipe, not seamless, and the bored shaft was about a 1/16 of an inch smaller than the pipe. I used some galvanized flashing to shim the pipe to just barely fit the bored shaft.
Shimmed cylinder with shaft in place. Threaded eyebolt on top of the shaft will attach to a linkage from the handle, pressing the shaft down when the handle is pulled. I welded a nut onto the top of the shaft which allows for adjustment to the length of the eyebolt – so you can adjust the clearance at the bottom of the shaft if you need to use larger tooling or punch thicker materials.
I needed to have two identical pieces for the linkages that connect the handle to the eyebolt on top of the shaft. Rather than trying to get the holes perfectly spaced on the drill press, I cut lengths from some commercial shelf brackets that had holes at 1.5″ centers.
Here is a cut, ground, and stamped linkage piece.
Handle, linkages, and eyebolt on top of the shaft.
Tapping threads into the shaft for the setscrew that holds tools in place. I used the wrong sized tap and broke it off in the hole, thought that I had ruined the entire shaft, but was able to punch it out and retap it with the right size.
So here is the fully assembled press. The shaft, moves up and down in the cylinder, holding tooling (hole punch) which presses against the bottom anvil. In this case, the bottom anvil is a 3/8″ bolt.
I thought about just welding the body of the press to a steel baseplate, but decided that I might want to attach it to something else in the future, so I drilled the press body, bolted on some angle iron, and then welded the angle to the baseplate.
Mounted on the table and ready for use.
Wrapped the handle with some old handlebar tape.
Punching holes and setting snaps.
Our friend Adam and his wife are homesteading a piece of property near the Pit River, in Shasta County. He is a brother in salvage, and has collected a lot of building materials that they are now putting together on their land. They are freezing their asses off in a small shack there, so he dreamed up a small woodstove, and brought the prepped pieces over for me to weld.
He started with a 10 gallon propane tank – which he purged thoroughly with water before using a grinder to cut the bottom out, and he cut another hole on top for the flue. I cut out a round piece of steel plate to use as a door, and we welded on a door hinge and a bolt for his custom latch.
Custom latch is a square foundation-bolt washer notched with a grinder and welded to the flange on the bottom of the tank. He is going to add a damper from another old stove onto the bottom of the door, and put some fiberglass stove-sealing cord to the space behind the door so it seals tight.
Adam had spent a lot of time using a grinder to notch the piece of pipe that will connect to the flue, and this saved me a lot of prep in welding it.

About NITs
List of NITs
Whole Brain Thinking
NIT Moments 2015
The National Institute of Technology (NITs), are premier engineering, science, technology & management colleges in India comprising of thirty autonomous universities located in one each major state/ territory of India. Since their inception decades ago, all NIT's were referred as Regional Engineering Colleges (REC's) and were governed by their respective state governments. A parliamentary legislation in 2002 brought them under the direct purview of India's federal government. In 2007, through another legislation, the Indian government declared these schools as Institutes of National Importance at par with the Indian Institutes of Technology.
NIT's History
Pandit Jawaharlal Nehru sought to develop India as a leader in science and technology. The Government started fourteen RECs between 1959 and 1965, at Bhopal, Allahabad, Calicut, Durgapur, Kurukshetra, Jamshedpur, Jaipur, Nagpur, Rourkela, Srinagar, Surathkal, Surat, Tiruchirappalli, and Warangal). It established one in Silchar in 1967 and added two others located at Hamirpur in 1986, and Jalandhar in 1987.
The RECs were jointly operated by the central government and the concerned state government. The success of technology-based industry led to high demand for technical and scientific education. Due to the enormous costs and infrastructure involved in creating globally respected Indian Institutes of Technology (IIT), in 2002 MHRD Minister Murli Manohar Joshi decided to upgrade RECs to "National Institutes of Technology" (NITs) instead of creating IITs. The central government controls NITs and provides all funding. In 2003, all RECs became NITs.

One trait of Carnival ships is the virtual indestructibility of furnishings and d�cor. Through the lavish use of leather, plastic, and Formica, everything simply wipes clean, a thoughtful feature for a ship known for hearty partying.
A Male participant�.what was amazing was that some of these guys borrowed nities from table mates, whom they had only met a few days prior!
The Riviera Restaurant. The food was actually not at all bad. Much better than I had expected. The service, while not polished, was quite willing. The dining room was a bit dark during the day, and I would have preferred fabric seat coverings rather than the plastic that was used.
The Carnival pool made famous by the slide. The water was always covered by an oily film, probably (hopefully) from tanning oil. How, or why it was there early in the morning was beyond my comprehension.
Overall, Carnival delivers on every promise it makes. It provides good food, and a fun time in a fantasy environment. I was a bit annoyed by some of the constant attempts to raise money. Drinks are constantly hustled around the ship and it is impossible to watch a show without constant interruptions by drink servers. The epitome came when during the Mexican Buffet on deck, there being nothing offered to drink besides hot coffee or tea. Of course, there was always the option to purchase a drink to tame some of the Mexican spice. Come on Carnival! THAT WAS REALLY PETTY!
