New mayor ready to take over in Port Richey
By: Erik Waxler
Attorney Scott Tremblay takes over a leadership position mired in trouble with the last two mayors ending up in jail.
Port Richey's new mayor will be sworn in next week.
RELATED: Port Richey Mayor arrested for attempted murder for firing at SWAT team serving warrant at his home
RELATED: Dale Massad faces two more charges following arrest of Port Richey's acting mayor

"I'm really excited. It's a new chapter in my life. A new chapter for the city," he said.
Tremblay was really never involved in Port Richey politics until he saw the city's disgraced mayor get arrested.
"It's just a sad story," he said.
Tremblay says he's never met Dale Massad, the ex-Mayor who's been in jail since February after authorities say he shot at deputies as they tried to serve an arrest warrant at his home.
Massad is also charged with obstruction for allegedly conspiring with his replacement Terrance Rowe during a phone call from jail.
A special election was called to find a new mayor, and Tremblay was one of five to step up.
"I felt with my legal background that I would be able to step up to this position and bring something back to the people that involves some integrity and hopefully advance the city in a more positive light," he said.
It only took 156 votes in the small town, for Tremblay to become the new mayor.
He beat out the others including two long-time members of the Port Richey government.
Tremblay says despite Port Richey's reputation as dysfunctional, there's a lot to feel positive about.
"It's financially healthy. The city employees are all great employees. The police department does a great job in servicing the community. All the nuts and bolts are there. I think the only problem is the leadership."
Tremblay's first goal is to fill the two open city council seats, including the one left vacant when Rowe was arrested and then suspended by the governor.
He's also ready to work on the budget to get things done including dredging waterways and developing the waterfront district.

China and Japan approve 6 funds to boost access to stock markets
on: May 27, 2019 In: Banking & Finance, Brief, Business Practice, Economics & Trade, Politics & Society, UncategorizedTags: No Comments
China and Japan have approved 6 exchange-traded funds (ETFs), making it easier for investors to put money into each other's stock markets, said Caixin.
The China Securities Regulatory Commission has approved four cross-border ETFs that will invest in Japanese ETFs to track Japan's stock indexes, according to a statement released by the commission. It has yet to announce when the funds will be available to investors.
Tokyo Stock Exchange Inc. has also approved two ETFs, which will buy shares in Chinese ETFs that invest in Chinese stock indexes, according to separate statements released on Wednesday and Thursday. The Japanese ETFs will be listed on the exchange on June 25.
The approvals mark the latest effort by Asia's two largest economies to speed up mutual access to each other's stock markets as the two countries make efforts to improve bilateral relations.

Home > Programs & Initiatives > Bullying Prevention
Bullying is an important public health issue that HRSA and its partners address in communities across the country. Whether kids bully each other in person or cyberbully using electronic technology, the results of this aggressive behavior have serious, lasting effects. Preventing bullying in all its forms can improve the physical and mental health, and the safety and well-being of children and their families.
HRSA actively works to reduce bullying prevalence across the country in a variety of ways. Key to this is co-chairing the Federal Partners in Bullying Prevention (FPBP), a cross-government working group charged with coordinating federal efforts on bullying prevention. As co-chair, HRSA leads the FPBP to provide consistent and well-informed resources to the field to significantly reduce the prevalence of youth peer-to-peer bullying. Our efforts, combined with those of our partners, include developing and sharing research, guidance, and resources at the national, state, and local levels.
Guidance to Federal, State and Local Governments
HRSA is an active partner with StopBullying.gov, a collaborative federal effort launched in 2011 that engages federal and community stakeholders from across the health, education, justice, and youth domains in bullying prevention. Through StopBullying.gov, HRSA distributes important bullying prevention research findings.
HRSA recognizes that bullying within a community is an indicator of that community's overall health. For this reason, HRSA's Maternal and Child Health Bureau (MCHB) added National Performance 9, bullying prevalence, to its National Performance Measures as part of the Title V Maternal and Child Health Services Block Grant Program. This enables HRSA to address the impact of bullying on public health across the nation and to support states in improving the health, safety and well-being of children and families.
To help states in their development of strategies that address the National Performance Measures and to promote the health and well-being of maternal and child heath population, MCHB supports the Strengthen the Evidence Base for Maternal and Child Health Programs . The Center has produced an Evidence Review (PDF - 1.2 MB) for the bullying prevention National Performance Measure, which is a critical analysis and synthesis of effectiveness of strategies to address bullying.
Resources to Aid Community-wide Efforts
HRSA's research-based resources give community leaders concrete tools to address, and ultimately, take steps to prevent bullying. Available in English and Spanish at StopBullying.gov's Bullying Prevention Training Center, these action-oriented tools include:
Bullying Prevention Training Course
Bullying Prevention Online Course—Learn how to take a public health approach to bullying prevention through the use of long-term, community-wide prevention strategies.
Base Training Module (PDF - 9 MB) Available as PowerPoint (PPTX - 17.4 MB)—Get the latest research on bullying and best practices in prevention and response.

Commitment to Research
In April 2014, researchers and experts in bullying prevention convened to gather current research on bullying, specifically:
its nature and prevalence,
the most effective models to prevent it,
strategies for reducing the negative effects, and
the key roles of different groups engaged on this issue.
Research highlighted at the workshop is spotlighted in Bullying Gets under Your Skin: Health Effects of Bullying on Children and Youth, a blog post on StopBullying.gov.
Read National Academies Releases New Consensus Report on Bullying, a blog post on StopBullying.gov.
Building on the work done in the workshop, a committee of experts from the National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine conducted a consensus study, for which HRSA was a co-sponsor. The study focused on the state of the science of the biological and psychosocial effects of peer victimization, and the risk and protective factors that either increase or decrease peer victimization behavior and consequences.
The report, Preventing Bullying Through Science, Policy, and Practice, released in May of 2016, evaluated the state of the science and impact of the problem. The report also provided next steps in the form of specific recommendations for policymakers, educators, health care providers, and others concerned about bullying. Several of the report recommendations were addressed to the Federal Partners in Bullying Prevention, who have taken preliminary steps to address them.

Carlota Clara Carvallo Wallstein (Lima, 26 de junio de 1909 - 29 de marzo de 1980), conocida como Cota Carvallo o Carlota Carvallo de Nuñez, fue una de las primeras mujeres pintoras del Perú. Además de ejercer la docencia, el periodismo y su labor como artista, obtuvo numerosos reconocimientos como poeta, compositora, dramaturga y escritora prolífica de la literatura infantil, siendo amiga muy cercana de César Moro y Martín Adán.

Biografía
La primogénita de Armando Carvallo Argüelles -peruano de ascendencia portuguesa- y Eugenia Wallstein Müller -de nacionalidad húngara- es bautizada como Carlota Clara en honor a sus dos abuelas, al nacer en Lima de 1909, pero su niñez y adolescencia transcurren entre el puerto y el campo de la ciudad de Huacho.

Con trece años inició la redacción de un diario personal que continuó escribiendo a lo largo de toda su vida. Al año siguiente fue invitada por sus tíos maternos a pasar una temporada en el balneario de Ancón. Carvallo y su primo Nicolás Accame Wallstein descubrieron entre ellos una profunda afinidad. Tuvieron una intensa relación epistolar cuando él partió a Italia para seguir estudios universitarios, hasta que se vio interrumpida con la trágica enfermedad y posterior muerte del muchacho, en 1924.

En 1926, a los 17 años, su familia se afincó en el distrito de Barranco e ingresa a la Escuela de Bellas Artes de Lima, bajo la dirección de Daniel Hernández y luego, José Sabogal; de cuyo taller formaron parte Julia Codesido, las hermanas Izcue, Leonor Vinatea, Carmen Saco, Reneé González Barúa, Celia y Alicia Bustamante Vernal. Egresó en 1933 con las mejores calificaciones y el Primer Premio en pintura. Un año más tarde, se casa con Estuardo Núñez el 27 de diciembre, siendo testigos de su matrimonio José Sabogal y José Antonio Encinas.

Se dedica íntegramente a la pintura durante sus viajes entre Arequipa, Puno y Cusco. En estos años realiza muestras en la Galería de Lima, en la academia Brandes, en la galería Pancho Fierro y en el Instituto de Arte Peruano. Varios cuadros suyos son adquiridos y expuestos en el Instituto Iberoamericano de Berlín-Alemania. Con el tiempo su obra pictórica se aleja del indigenismo y adquiere una dimensión más surreal y expresionista.

Desde la llegada del primero de sus siete hijos (cinco varones y dos mujeres) en 1935, Carvallo desarrolló nuevas inquietudes y amplió su campo de creación artística con obras de teatro, reconocidos libros de cuentos con ilustraciones propias, y canciones infantiles, de las cuales, varias de ellas han pasado a integrar el acervo popular del Perú y Chile.

Además ingresó en el campo del periodismo, primero como caricaturista entre sus 18 y 25 años en revistas como Semanal y Hombre de la Calle dirigidas por Federico More, así como en Limeña, dirigida por Rosa Porras. Fundó y dio estructura a la revista para niños Urpi (1974 - 1975), la cual se editaba semanalmente como suplemento del diario La Prensa y fue Sub Directora de la revista ALPHA, de la Asociación de Amigos del Arte. Ejerció la docencia en colegios secundarios como María Alvarado, Sagrados Corazones Belén, San Jorge, Prescott, entre otros.

Falleció mientras dormía luego de una intervención quirúrgica, a los 71 años, faltando tres meses para cumplir 72 aniversario.

Importancia
Como pintora, su paleta es amplia y agrisada de línea firme y suelta, uniendo la academia y la expresión libre en la pintura al óleo, el gouache, la acuarela, el lápiz y la sanguina. Domina el retrato y la escena urbana de los Barrios Altos o de Barranco. Los innumerables viajes promueven un acercamiento al paisaje.
Con el tiempo sus pinturas adquieren una dimensión más surreal y expresionista. Luego de ganar el Primer Premio "Ignacio Merino" en 1952, su obra pictórica empezó a ser expuesta internacionalmente.

Fue además, la escritora más prolífica y vigorosa de la literatura infantil peruana. Le correspondió junto con Francisco Izquierdo Ríos (1910-1981) sentar las bases pedagógico - literarias de la literatura infantil. Durante su vida publicó más de cien cuentos y diez libros, pero hay otra parte de su obra que permanece aún inédita: se estima que son diez volúmenes que fue escribiendo acerca de sus hijos, en una especie de diario de anécdotas y reflexiones que anotaba minuciosamente.
Su legado para la dramaturgia obtuvo premios en concursos de teatro escolar. En el 2011, una nueva adaptación de La Tacita de Plata se puso en cartelera a cargo del director Lorenzo Ricco y el Teatro de la Universidad Nacional de Ingeniería TUNI, al mismo tiempo en el Centro Cultural Peruano Británico se estrenó Oshta y el duende en versión de títeres.

Mientras que las pequeñas piezas musicales fueron compuestas para sus hijos y nietos a lo largo de décadas; al igual que sus poemas, nunca vieron la luz en publicaciones más que en los diarios como La Prensa, Urpi y algunas revistas. El poemario Poesías para niños conformado por treinta y nueve poemas, fue recuperado por el escritor Roberto Rosario Vidal y algunas fueron publicadas en "Antología Nacional de Literatura Infantil", así como en los libros "Literatura Infantil y Educación" y "Antología general de la poesía infantil" por Saniel Lozano y Luzmán Salas y César Toro Montalvo, respectivamente.

Why You Won't Be Hearing Taylor Swift Songs In Movies, TV Shows, or Commercials Anytime Soon
Taylor Swift is singlehandedly shutting down the licensing of her valuable catalog for advertisements, TV, and movies — even though that could cost her millions.
Taylor Swift is now taking extreme measures to sabotage the recent $300 million sale of her catalog by former label Big Machine. Earlier today, the superstar revealed that she's shutting down all synchronization licensing — which she still has veto power over.

Press Releases One Wisconsin Now: Brad Schimel wants TV ad exposing deals for sex...
One Wisconsin Now: Brad Schimel wants TV ad exposing deals for sex criminals when he was District Attorney pulled from airwaves
Mike Browne, Deputy Director
Previously Ignored Pleas of Family of Victims to Have Special Interest Backers at WMC Ad Pulled in State Supreme Court Election
MADISON, Wis. — Brad Schimel did nothing as Attorney General to help the family of victims of child sex assault when they pleaded publicly with the corporate lobby the Wisconsin Manufacturers and Commerce (WMC) to pull their state Supreme court race ad. The ad from WMC included identifying information about the victims. But according to media reports, now that Schimel is the subject of campaign ads noting his failures, he is trying to get the spots taken off the air.
"It seems Brad Schimel only cares about a victim if he thinks it's himself," said One Wisconsin Now Executive Director Scot Ross. "Schimel is trying to bully television stations into taking down an ad calling him out for sex criminals getting light sentences in cases he oversaw as Waukesha County District Attorney. But when the family of child sex abuse victims pleaded publicly for Schimel's special interest pals to take down their appalling ad he wanted nothing to do with it."
In their desperation to elect their favored candidate to the Wisconsin Supreme Court, the big corporate lobby produced an ad that included identifying information about the victims of childhood sexual abuse. They spent $1 million to air it in every media market of the state. The distraught family of the victims privately contacted and then publicly pleaded with the WMC to take the ad down, a request the WMC refused.
Schimel, who as Attorney General also oversees the Office of Crime Victim Services, took no action on behalf of the family to stop the ad.
Ross noted that Schimel is currently benefiting from WMC advertising on his behalf. The corporate special interests with whom Schimel has oft supported in his official capacity as Attorney General are repaying him with television advertising praising him.
In addition, the Republican Attorneys General Association (RAGA), a recipient of significant contributions from big pharmaceutical companies like those Schimel refuses to hold accountable in court for their part in the opioid crisis, is paying for advertising on his behalf.

Rentokil Initial, a business service company, has implemented cloud technology for its global HR system of 66,000 staff records.
The company is working with Workday, a provider SaaS-based HR, financial management and payroll solutions, to manage the data of more than 66,000 employees operating from more than 1,000 branches in 58 countries.
As part of the company's strategic plan, Rentokil Initial introduced Programme Olympic, a company-wide effort to increase efficiency in its administrative and operational processes. As part of this programme, the selection of Workday will allow Rentokil Initial to optimise its workforce.
With Workday as its global HR system of record, it is hoped Rentokil Initial will have a single source of actionable information about its workforce, accessible in the Workday cloud. This will enable Rentokil Initial to configure its business processes, meeting the diverse needs of each region without requiring the development or use of custom software code.
Rentokil Initial selected Workday's SaaS solution for its global capabilities, intuitive self-service tools, continued innovation delivery, and lower cost of ownership over on-premise solutions.
Rentokil Initial uses other cloud-based solutions including the Google Apps software service for the company's email, intranet, and collaboration toolset, Ariba as its main procurement tool, and Cornerstone OnDemand for global online learning.
Martin Sawkins, group HR director at Rentokil Initial, said: "As a large company with a small HR team, it is absolutely imperative that we leverage leading-edge technologies we trust to provide us the information we need to do our jobs. In line with our Programme Olympic initiative, our organisation is laser-focused on delivering consistent employee goals and performance measures that optimise our workforce while putting us on the path to deliver outstanding customer care and profitable growth."

This Sunday in Rock in Austin - The LAist SXSW Bash
By Tony Pierce
Published Mar 6, 2007 11:00 PM
It was a toss-up for the headline of this story. I was saying it should be "Golden AX Wins the LAist Rock at SXSW Contest", but the marketing team kept saying, "Look at the poster, you drunken fool! That's not Golden AX. That's Rocket! And look at the picture on this post! Rocket! Plus you haven't told anyone that LAist is not only going to represent at the biggest film / music / Interweb mashup in the entire world, but we're going to be there in a big big way. Brag a little, boy,"
And of course they're right. But I wouldn't call it a mashup. It's like the best drunken rock convention ever, that just happens to have a great opening act of dot-com coolness during the only film festival I ever end up at.
LAist are big fans of Room 710, a sweet club on Red River, a block off 6th. And only because of Asher, the owner of the club, were we able to swing a jam-packed night of rock for your SXSW-attending ass. And we're passing that luck over to you!
While it might appear that the evening will be a showcase of up-'n-coming new music (that you'll be bragging about years from now: "I saw them for free, bitch!"), it will secretly be a tag team battle royale between two Austin bands and two LA bands.
From Austin, we have the sweet sounds of Quiet Company and the metal riffs of Blackholicus. And from here in LA we've got Golden AX and LAist favorites Rocket.
After the jump, check out the kickass poster created by bloopy...

Reaction: F1 Australian GP 2012
It was an enjoyable first race of the year, though perhaps not as exciting as some people claimed. Though I enjoyed it I wasn't on the edge of my seat. I am not sure if this was tired grumpiness after 3 hours sleep following Sebring, only to be confronted with ad-ridden dodgy internet feeds. I don't think so because I watched the BBC recap and didn't feel hugely different.
The DRS was used to good effect in Melbourne. Whilst I don't agree with it being used at every race, it was clear there wouldn't have been a lot of overtaking here without it. Most passes I saw involved DRS on the front straight or the run between turns 2 and 3. Mind you, turn 3 is traditionally the best passing place on the circuit so perhaps it is harder to tell than is apparent.
There was some great racing in the field. Sebastian Vettel was forced to race rather than drive off imperiously, despite his critics saying he can't pass he did exactly that.
I like McLaren and both of their drivers so colour me happy they were fast and up front! It was also a really nice change from blue. Albert Park is a quirky circuit and McLaren are always quick there – the question is still open as to the real form on a wide open course as we'll see at Sepang. I also have a feeling Mark Webber will again make life 'interesting' for Sebastian Vettel as he did in 2010. I don't think we'll see as much of a McLaren walkover this season as this GP suggested. Even if they do we'll have a real fight between Jenson and Lewis. We're in for a fun year.
I was impressed by the pace of Mercedes and I think they are going to have a very good year, the achilles heel seems to be reliability. That could be down to the decision to skip the first test, less time to iron out the bugs. If they can make the car last the distance they will be on the podium often this year and could well score a win or two.
All credit to Fernando Alonso for dragging what is reportedly a dog of a Ferrari to 5th place as if they were still as relatively good to the opposition as they were last year.
Positive Movement
I said it in my pre-race previews here and on the Sidepodcast megamix – the press may be all over Raikkonen, but watch Romain Grosjean this year. What a different driver he is nowadays. Despite being taken out of the race early he showed a lot of people his true talent right the way through last weekend.
Williams! Wow, I'd hoped they would improve from 18th or 20th but I expected something like 12th-14th, not a solid points run! But then the curse of Maldonado struck and he crashed, on the last lap would you believe it. Senna fared even worse. That doesn't really matter though – they demonstrated a major improvement and that is very, very promising. Thank you Renault.
Great to see attacking drives from both Sauber guys being rewarded with a deserved double points finish. The car seems upper-midfield in race pace, if not qualifying pace, which is nice to see.
Caterham. I expected more from them than to still be a few tenths off the bottom of the midfield. That said, the signs are that Petrov is already better at dealing with life back here than was Trulli.
Marussia, despite being last they were only lapped twice (including the lap they were gifted back thanks to the Lucky Pack of Dogs) which is a glimmer of an improvement in speed compared to 3+ laps of the last two years. The real improvement is in getting both cars home at the first attempt after doing no pre-season testing, I give them a lot of credit for that. HRT were in the same boat and didn't even qualify. It was nice to see the stewards actually apply the 107% rule for a change.
The BBC coverage of the weekend was excellent. I only have complaints about some action that was cut from the highlights but firstly I am a racing geek who wants to see it all, and secondly cuts were expected to happen. On the whole they showed a creditable amount of the race (and qualifying) for what are highlights shows.
The commentary line-up is already ahead of the terrestrial line-up of the past several years, Ben Edwards proving exactly why he should've been the one to pick up the baton from Murray Walker all those years ago. Fair enough he does dumb things down a little bit but that's entirely due to the audience he is talking to – the casual, non-geek F1 fan. His predecessors did the same thing. What he adds is an extra level of excitement added to the gravitas of a professional play-by-play commentator. I prefer this to the conversational style of Brundle and DC last year. DC himself seems more at ease than I've ever heard him, partly I think due to the slightly more clear-cut analyst/colour role, and partly due to this being his 3rd season behind the mic and the growing confidence that brings.
The pre- and post-race segments weren't long enough but there were never going to be in this format. The real test of how the BBC has changed its' game in 2012 will be their first live race at the Chinese GP. As for their highlights shows, to attract viewers with this format they needed to produce some of the best quality content they've put together yet – so far, they've achieved it.
I do not have Sky Sports F1 and haven't had the opportunity to see very much of it, so it would be unfair of me to comment on it. There is a chance I will find out for myself for the Malaysian GP.
This weekend; Malaysian GP, Sepang, KL, Malaysia.
A very different prospect to Albert Park. Long, fast sweepers in high temperatures asking a lot of tyres, chassis, engine and aero performance. Add to this the potential for rain (even thunderstorms) and we have another hard-to-predict weekend!

Leigh O'Gorman says:
I feel the need to defend Bruno Senna here, since everyone seems ready to rip him to shreds after one race with the team. Daniel Ricciardo had Senna airborne in the first corner, resulting in a further spin and a necessary first lap pitstop.
If that car wasn't damaged in some way – most likely the floor – then I'd be stunned.
So, for him to battling for 11th-13th with Ricciardo and Massa late on is not a bad result, only for Massa to slide hard into the side of Senna after getting scared by Ricciardo.
Two accidents unfortunate, neither of which I believe were Bruno's fault.
That should obviously read "two unfortunate accidents…"
{ahem}
Just to be realllllllly picky, but technically Marussia didn't get both cars to the finish, Pic retired with 5 laps to go. Granted, it's still a classification, which is a hell of a lot better than usual, but still lingering technical doubts.
I was impressed with Petrov too, looks to be more competitive against Kovalainen as well. Might see the true pace of that Caterham finally.
And my new favourite driver, Grosjean, what a qualifying drive! Really hope it wasn't a one off, and puts up a good fight with Raikkonen, hope he will like you say.
I wasn't ripping Senna. I said 'Senna fared worse', just three words, without saying whose fault it was. Being hit by people is worse than not being hit by people or not hitting others! I'm sure he'll bounce back. Needs to work on qualifying a bit, that's all. Not sure who is criticising him, I've not seen it.
I don't remember much about Pic's race to be honest, after Glock dropped him he seemed to be on his own a lot. Either I missed him DNF or have just forgotten it.
@ Pat,
I wasn't specifically citing you, but it's something I've read a lot from folks who seem to have forgotten he got punted twice.
As for Malaysia, let's see if they can carry that momentum onto a permanent circuit.

Hey nice review, we quite enjoyed it. This is a great blog and we can tell that a lot of effort has gone into it which we quite appreciate. We have done something quite similar, however, in the form of a podcast. Perhaps you'd like to check it out? We could even give you a plug on the show perhaps for something similar in return?

I did an internet search and found that large numbers of forums are currently being attacked by the same problem under random user names. It seems to be a world wide problem. So far though I have seen nothing on the news.
found a way to get around tests that are implmented to identify none computer users.
and others are user programed to do it.
all they have to do is visit the site manually look up what they are doign to prevent bots. then program that test into the bot..
most are user clicking things.
another spammer just started at it as well..
(CNET) -- Many people found Google's search site was extremely slow or inaccessible Thursday [today], and other reports pointed to troubles with other properties including YouTube, Gmail, Google Analytics, Google Maps, Google Docs, AdSense, and Blogger. Judging by a Twitter search for #googlefail, the problem was international in scope, though it wasn't immediately clear how universal the problems were.
Updated 12:40 a.m. ET: [Google says] outages have been reported to us all over the world, including California, Maryland, Massachusetts, Florida, New York, Washington, Illinois, Idaho, Indiana, Arizona, Oklahoma, New Jersey, North Carolina, Texas, the United Kingdom, Dominican Republic, and Malaysia.
[CNET says] Keynote's Internet Health report is showing some interesting data this morning as well. Two network routes involving NTT, a Japanese telecommunications giant, are showing significant packet loss on connections to Qwest and Verizon. We're trying to get more information and an explanation from Keynote representatives.
I PMd NHernandez yesterday about user bober and he deleted the account (he didn't delete his posts as we all have noticed). I PMd him again about user OnlineOrder today, well see what will happen.
Since it worked rather I well I suggest, that anyone who detectes a spammer does the same immediately.
Plus I also think that the creation of new accounts should be disabled for some time.
I also offer my time and services in whatever capacity requested.

any way onlineserver is acitve on the hosting computer itself?

One of these days I'll learn to say exactly what I mean. I'm offering a couple of hours of my time to expunge 200 or so of the spam topics. Whether there are 600+ or 2000+ such topics makes no difference to me, the offer stands.
But there's not much point in deporting a few aliens now when the border is apparently still wide open.
I meant temporary assignment as a moderator.

I agree. With a 20 message per day limit, e.g., I doubt that any forum member would be inconvenienced.
At one topic every 45 secs or so, it adds up fast. OnlineOrder now has over 1700 topics.


Troy Clark was condemned for the May 1998 slaying of a former roommate, Christina Muse of Tyler. Authorities said that Clark, a drug dealer, had worried that Muse would snitch on him.
"I feel it," he said. Then he grunted, gasped and began to snore. Seconds later, all movement stopped. He was pronounced dead 21 minutes later at 6:36 p.m.
She also said that Clark's attitude during the procedure was troubling.
The 51-year-old Clark became the 17th inmate put to death this year in the U.S. and the ninth given a lethal injection in Texas, the nation's busiest capital punishment state. Clark is the first of two executions this week in Texas. Daniel Acker was scheduled to be executed Thursday for fatally running over his girlfriend.
The Texas Board of Pardons and Paroles declined to recommend a commutation of Clark's sentence.
After his conviction, Clark had argued his trial attorneys failed to present evidence of his childhood, marked by physical and emotional abuse, which might have convinced jurors to spare his life.
Appeals courts had previously ruled that because of the overwhelming case against Clark, it's likely he still would have been sentenced to death even if the jury had heard evidence of his troubled childhood.
Prosecutors said Clark subdued Muse, 20, with a stun gun, bound her with duct tape and left her in a closet for several hours while he played video games and sold drugs to a customer.
Clark later moved Muse to a bathroom where he hit her with a board and threatened his girlfriend, Tory Bush, into helping him drown Muse in the tub. Muse's body was then stuffed into a barrel with cement mix and lime before being dumped in a ravine.
Prosecutors also presented evidence Clark had committed two other murders, including one that occurred after Muse's death but prior to his arrest. The Smith County District Attorney's Office, which prosecuted Clark, declined to comment.
Bobby Mims, one of Clark's trial attorneys, said Clark denied killing Muse.
"But there was pretty strong evidence that he was guilty. Tory Bush was pretty damning," Mims said. Bush, who testified against Clark, was sentenced to 20 years in prison.
Mims said he and his co-counsel were ineffective during the punishment phase in presenting evidence of Clark's troubled childhood, which included having a mother who was incarcerated for most of his life and who introduced him to drugs.
Mims said when Clark's case was tried in 2000, most defense attorneys didn't focus on presenting mitigating evidence of a defendant's problematic life as part of their efforts to prevent a death sentence.
The 5th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals had previously denied Clark's appeals on this issue, saying in 2012 that Clark refused to let his trial attorneys contact family as well as others to testify on his behalf.
"At the punishment hearing, the prosecutors actually had one or two of (Clark's) own relatives show up and they had indicated they wanted him to get the death penalty. It was crazy," Mims said.
Mims said he doesn't know if evidence of Clark's troubled life would have made a difference with the jury.
"I hope he's made peace with his maker," Mims said.

One of my goals for 2013 was to giveaway a lot of what I make so it was quite rewarding to give this to my niece over Easter weekend. You can gauge her reaction by the pictures as it was a total surprise.


In this regard a comprehensive assessment was carried out to identify 09 most vulnerable women in the remote area of district Hattian Bala AJK during August 11 to August 15, 2013. After detailed review and consultations village Chamm was selected for said endeavor.
Village Chamm Moohri is situated near Line of Control in the district Hattiana Bala AJK. The village lacks basic infrastructure including paved road, girl's schools and basic health units. There is no market in village only small shops are available at scattered places. The only market available is located at main village of chamm about 2 kilometres away from target sub village.
Since the area is mountainous therefore a negligible household is attached to agriculture. Various areas of the village are disconnected due to heavy snowfall during winters. The only hope for medical treatment during winters is the medical facility provided by Army in the area. Serious patients are taken on stretchers to district headquarters hospital Hattian Bala which is approximately 25 kilometre away from village. During monsoon due torrential rainfall again the roads are blocked and the flowing rivulet of Qazi Nag causes huge devastation to land, households and livestock.


Avadon 3: The Warborn, Valkyria Chronicles 4, and Pillars of Eternity are our top selection to play today.
The latest addition in this selection are Pathfinder: Kingmaker released the 24 September 2018 and ranked #39, Rise of Civilizations released the 20 September 2018 and ranked #28, Viking Village released the 24 April 2018 and ranked #26.
50 Games like Battle Mages daily generated comparing over 40 000 video games across all platforms.
This suggestion collection includes strategy RPG games in a fantasy world for Android, IOS (iPhone / iPad), Win Mobile, PS4 (Playstation 4), Xbox One, Switch, PC Windows, Mac OS and Linux. The order in this selection is not absolute, but the best games tends to be up in the list.

Matthew Connors
Book review by Max Houghton
The end is where we start from. This oft-quoted line from T.S. Eliot's Little Giddings was an expression of philosophical, spiritual and, perhaps, aesthetic renewal after the horrors of the two world wars. It is also a deliberate conceptual strategy in the making of Fire in Cairo by Matthew Connors, a book which reads back-to-front. When many of us encounter a photo-book, this is how we flip through it, anyway. It's a curious but pervasive quirk. Books in Arabic are 'read backwards' or, more accurately, they are read in the reverse direction to books in, for example, Germanic or Romance scripts. It is important, however, to note that language itself doesn't have a direction.
Among Connors' achievements with this work is that he has harnessed the energy of fire and revolution and used it as a charge for his own creativity, with this vivid green, cloth-covered book. It opens, at the 'back', with a short story which oscillates between sexual intimacy, the history of torture and the impossibility of knowledge, only to end in silence. This is our territory. He lands the reader in Midan Simon Bolivar, Cairo, a location which, like its eponymous hero, symbolises the people's struggle and the possibility for change and freedom. During the heady days of 2011, when nearby Tahrir Square was the epicentre of the uprising to oust Mubarak, a bandage was placed over the eye of the Bolivar statue, after police had employed tear gas. As Pablo Neruda writes of Bolivar, "I wake every hundred years when the people are awake." The story closes with its narrator detained, while the "bureaucracy of retribution" is adjudicated. As a description of what follows the fever and ferment of revolution, this chilling phrase conjures tedium, injustice and quiet threat of violence still to come.
We turn the page to a different kind of not-knowing: a portrait in black and white of an older man, in what I will lazily call traditional Arab dress. I cannot say if there is further significance to his attire – it may be clerical. Like the narrator, I am reminded constantly of my lack of knowledge. An extensive series of paired portraits follow this single image and, with a couple of disruptions, we are still seeing in black and white. Connors took two images of each person, seconds apart, and the editing process led to this effective juxtaposition, in which we can perceive subtle changes in light or expression. One pairing is of two different men – police not protestors – and is the exception that proves the rule. With this series, Connors invites the reader to question the nature of a photographic portrait, shown here to be always in flux. His doublings create a kind of binocular vision, without the illusion of depth.
These portraits begin a sustained meditation on sight and sightlessness, and speech and silence that courses through the work. The right eye of the first young man pictured is occluded. A few pages on, another young man sports a plaster on the delicate tissue just below his eye. Another man wears a scarf, creeping up to obscure his sight. A veiled woman has only a narrow aperture through which to see, curtailing her peripheral vision, as do the hoods of sportswear worn by others. A masked man's eyes are open to the elements, his mouth a covered orifice. Then, on subsequent pages, fire ablaze in orange. Fire that seems to hang like a mushroom cloud in the sky, though the flames flare from tyres burning on the ground.
Next, another pairing is of a boy with an oversized sweatband concealing most of his eyes, as well as his nose and mouth. This seems to be the last doubling, as overleaf a vivid image of bright green laser lines engulfs the reader's vision. This is the image on which the work turns. Now: riot police and tear gas trails. Then one final portrait pair (for now); this time in a full skull mask with upturned eye-socket slits, rendering the face underneath bug-like. Metamorphosis can indeed be a reasonable response to oppression. Questions of freedom of speech; the right to say what has been seen (another impossible task); the right to remain silent, hover over these faces, wary, vulnerable, fearless, hidden, exposed, altered.
During the uprisings – and since – thousands of people used laser pointers as an act of protest, shining their light at military helicopters in an attempt to knock them off course. In Fire in Cairo, the images they created in the night sky becomes a leitmotif, the most important in the book. They are images of protest, a union of technology and direct action, even, if we take the etymological light-writing definition, a new and potent photography.
Other images depict a city heading towards ruin — torn down posters, remnants of things destroyed by fire, shadows through trees, a young man clutching something that might detonate if thrown, a man bent double in apparent despair, military helicopters, birds in flight or fright. On seeing a found photograph of a bride, I am struck by the thought that it is in fact a lost photograph, unsutured from its family album. A graphic poster of a teenage girl has her face, especially her eyes, repeatedly and violently struck out. As the book draws to a close, a sinister portrait pairing reminds us of our compulsion to repeat. The figure is fully covered by a black garment, with a mirrored mask over the face, reflecting back a view of the contested landscape of the street. The revolution through masked and unseeing eyes. It is a mannequin, but such distinctions between real and unreal no longer make sense. The view thereafter is upwards. A sky redesigned by smoke and fire. Is that encroaching blood? Gathering darkness? New constellations have been created with green light, though we cannot be sure how long their luminescence will endure. They have, like pinned butterflies, been captured here. ♦

Hugh Hefner will be buried next to Marilyn Monroe and it's not cute
Sep 28, 2017 @ 11:00 am By Molly Mulshine
Playboy founder and media icon Hugh Hefner has died of natural causes, and the tributes are pouring in from celebrities and the general public alike.
The details surrounding his death are still unknown, but his burial situation's been on lock for 25 years. Hef bought the crypt next to Marilyn Monroe's grave back in 1992 so that he could be entombed beside her.
"Spending an eternity next to Marilyn is too sweet to pass up," he reportedly once said.
This, coupled with the fact that Playboy's first ever cover featured Marilyn, might make you think the admiration was mutual between both icons. But when you look into Hef and Marilyn's past, his statement becomes pretty creepy — especially since Marilyn never consented to appearing in Playboy, never met Hef, and never agreed to "spending an eternity" next to him.

Marilyn Monroe was the first model to grace the cover of Playboy back in 1953, and she appeared nude inside. She was a massive star at the time, so naked photos of her were a big deal. The cover was a success for Hef, and the story's often retold to make him look like a determined and tenacious rookie editor. As People flatteringly reports, "Hefner was able to scrape together $8,000 to introduce the magazine with the decade's hottest star on the cover."
Well, here's the thing: that money he scraped together didn't go to Marilyn. In fact, Hef never even met Marilyn, and she never actually posed for Playboy. Instead, he bought the photos from other agencies and photographers and cobbled together a spread. The sole nude photo was taken from a calendar that had leaked and almost ruined Marilyn's career a few years earlier.
Marilyn had decided to do the nude calendar shoot in 1949 because acting jobs weren't coming in and she needed money so her car wouldn't be impounded. Then, in 1952, Marilyn had finally hit it big in Hollywood. A reporter saw the calendar one of the nude photos had ended up in, and realized one of the models was Marilyn. The story blew up. Marilyn handled it by admitting to the photo shoot and insisting she didn't do anything wrong.
"[The photographer] didn't think anyone would recognize me," she said after the photos leaked. "My hair was long then. But when the picture came out, everybody knew me… I'd never have done it if I'd known things would happen so fast in Hollywood for me."

A year later, when the scandal had finally died down, Playboy bought the rights to one of the photos and used it as the magazine's first centerfold. We couldn't find any record of how Marilyn felt about that, but she probably wasn't thrilled.
In the Playboy issue, there was no interview with Marilyn. Instead, there was a write-around in which the author calls her a "juic[y] morsel" and shades her pretty heavily, implying she's not that hot:
There is no denying the young lady is very well stacked.
Yet, her curves really aren't that spectacular. Even if you believe the best of the conflicting reports — 37 1/2" 23" 37" (and we don't) — we've known girls in our roguish wanderings who beat those dimensions all to hell.
The same can be said for her face. It's sweet, wide-eyed and innocent — and on top of her rather surrealistic torso, it's slightly sensational. But Hollywood uses slightly sensational females for waitresses and studio messengers.
Add this to the long list of celebrity profiles where male authors feel a need to neg their female subject, no matter how gorgeous she is. Also, incredibly, this is the second time the author goes over Marilyn's alleged measurements in the short piece.
Playboy also gave much of the credit for Marilyn's fame to two men.
[When it comes to how she became so famous], publicity is the most obvious answer. Nobody climbs to stardom without a healthy boost from the rear by a Grade-A publicity man. In this case, there are two — Harry Brand and Roy Craft — both Grade-A. They do their boosting for 20th Century Fox and they outdid themselves on Marilyn.
Yet some of the biggest publicity breaks were unplanned. Marilyn's romance with Joltin' Joe DiMaggio was on the up and up: in fact the studio boys were actually against it, because they thought it would hurt her popularity. And when they first heard about the now famous nude calendar, even their ulcers had ulcers.
It seemingly doesn't even occur to the writer that these big publicity breaks were a result of Marilyn's actions. Instead, she's presented as a passive recipient of men's actions, some of which work out for her and some don't. And Playboy joins the ranks of men who profited from Marilyn's charisma, talent and hard work.
In later years, Hef would go on to gush about Marilyn from afar, calling her "the ultimate blonde" and saying he would've liked to have dated her. But the truth is, we have no idea how Marilyn Monroe felt about Hef or Playboy. Her agency and opinion are stripped away at pretty much every point in the narrative surrounding her relationship with the brand.
This isn't the only time Playboy profited from women's images and gave the women themselves the short shrift.
There are plenty of other examples, but here's one that stands out. Holly Madison, Kendra Wilkinson and Bridget Marquardt were responsible for revitalizing Playboy's brand in the 2000s with the hugely popular reality show "The Girls Next Door." People weren't tuning in every week to watch Hef shuffle around in a bathrobe, you know? But as it turns out, they were being massively underpaid, according to Holly's memoir. They were under the impression that Playboy found them to be totally replaceable and Hef thought he was the show's main draw.
The hugely popular show fizzled out after Holly, Kendra and Bridget left the cast, so it's pretty clear they were the reason people were tuning in.
At the end of the day, Hugh Hefner did a lot of good work, including helping to fund Roe v. Wade, supporting the civil rights movement, and putting a woman of color on the cover of Playboy as early as 1971. He also should be applauded for taking discussions of sex out into the open, although the debate over whether Playboy objectified women will probably rage on.
But his legacy contains more than a few creepy footnotes, including his insistence on laying next to Marilyn Monroe, a woman he never met but whose nude photos he disseminated, "for all eternity." Sady Doyle puts it best in her book "Trainwreck":
[Buying the crypt next to Marilyn's] was a gruesome joke, "sleeping with" the woman he'd almost ruined, and doing so without her consent — claiming her in death, as he'd claimed the right to exploit her in life.

Six cars in one area of Coventry have been targeted by thieves after alloy wheels.
Police are urging car owners to take extra precautions, such as using locking wheel nuts, after the spate of offences in and around Eastern Green.
All but one car was a Ford Mondeo. The other was a Peugeot.
The thieves strike in the dead of night and jack up the car before stealing the wheels and leaving the vehicle on bricks.
The latest incident occurred in Ladbrook Road.
Other roads hit include Alderminster Road and Sutherland Avenue, in Mount Nod.
Sgt Lee Burns, of Little Park Street police station, said: "They jack them [the cars] up with bricks and just take the wheels off. They are efficient in what they do.
"We have got patrols out specifically in the area. However, I would urge that owners of these vehicles consider parking their cars in the garage until we can find these offenders."
Sgt Burns added: "We have put police activity to arrest and deter these offenders."
Anyone with any information is asked to phone police at Little Park Street on 0845 113 5000.


YANGON – An official from the local branch of the Ministry of Hotels and Tourism Department (MOHT) in Thandwe district in southern Rakhine State confirmed that close relatives of several high-profile former army generals owned high-end but unlicensed resorts in prime locations on Ngapali Beach in Thandwe Township.
During a visit to Ngapali and Thandwe Township over the weekend, this reporter obtained an official document listing the hotels and resorts that had been registered with the MOHT.
Pristine Mermaid Resort, situated in Mya Pyin village, owned by Daw Nanda Aye, daughter of former military dictator Maung Aye and the wife of Pyi Aung, son of former general U Aung Thaung, had not received a hotel business license from the MOHT as of March but has been operating the property since early this year.
BT Bay Hotel, also known as Bawga Theidhi, located in Lin Thar village, is owned by a family member of former sports and tourism minister U Tint San and also does not have a hotel license. Bawga Theidhi is a division of the Hotel ACE group, owned by Phyo Ko Ko Tint San, who was arrested for possession of assault rifles at Yangon airport in 2017.
Another resort, The Lodge Blue Ocean, belongs to U Myint San, who also owns the Lin Thar Oo lodge in Lin Thar village on the Ngapali shore.
According to the Thandwe branch of the MOHT, Ngapali has 35 licensed hotels and guesthouses providing at least 1,300 rooms to tourists. Meanwhile, about 20 unlicensed guesthouses along the Mazin-Gyeiktaw Road are illegally operating tourism businesses.
It's unclear whether these unlicensed properties are paying tax to the government even though they openly advertise on international travel websites such as Agoda, TripAdvisor and Lonely Planet. According to a senior Thandwe Revenue Department official, taxation was handled by the Yangon division office.
The Irrawaddy tried to reach the hotel owners or their senior business executives by phone on Tuesday but they declined to comment on the matter.
The three hotels and guesthouse owners mentioned above were granted construction permits or guesthouse licenses by the local municipality. However, MOHT regulations state that local guesthouses that do not have a license from the ministry are prohibited from receiving foreign guests.
U Than Tun, chairperson of the Thandwe Township municipality, said that BT Bay and The Lodge Blue Ocean had applied for hotel construction permits several years ago. Pristine Mermaid Hotel was granted permit for construction on nearly three acres of land and it is now waiting to embark on a new phase of construction on an adjacent three acres of land.
The township municipality determined that the new proposed construction violates local laws and decided to withhold permission for the building.
"We have found that Pristine Mermaid breached municipal law and they have promised to fix the height of a brick wall by May," the official said.
U Than Tun revealed that even the Civil Aviation Department's joint venture project, Ngapali Paradise Hotel, which is located next to Thandwe airport, had failed to follow the laws. Moreover, several hotel projects are currently being constructed in the village without the proper permits.
According to MOHT statistics, tourist arrivals to Ngapali have been growing robustly, increasing 14 percent to 50,496 in 2017 from 43,440 in 2016.

Omicron: A Variant Of Concern
Anika Prasad|December 8, 2021
The latest Covid-19 variant, initially referred to as B.1.1.529 was first detected by South African scientists. Dr. Angelique Coetzee, the chairwoman of the South African Medical Association was the first doctor to flag cases of this variant from a specimen collected on November 9th, 2021. Then the World Health Organization named it Omicron after the letter in the Greek alphabet. Since then it has spread to 38 countries including the U.S., Germany, Saudi Arabia, and Australia.
The symptoms are extremely mild with a "scratchy throat" rather than a sore throat and no cough or loss of smell and taste as associated with most of the other coronavirus (CoV). Most cases detected in South Africa were asymptomatic, with no indications that Omicron is any worse than Delta. The World Health Organization still doesn't have sufficient information on the transmissibility of Omicron.
How dangerous is the omicron?
The Omicron variant has over 50 mutations, including 32 mutations just on the spike protein.
The virus uses the spike protein to attach itself to our cells and infect us.
15 of the mutations are in a part of the spike protein that binds to specific antibodies and ACE-2 receptors.
Microbiologists fear that the virus can easily enter the human body and infect us via ACE-2 receptors found in our noses.
The new variant is expected to evade our immune systems better than other variants.
Scientists believe this variant spreads quicker and has a higher transmission rate.
How did omicron get created?
Researchers have been studying the virus's genome and this variant seemed to have evolved from a strain that was circulating in mid-2020. In the intervening months, there have been no traces of all the intermediate versions until they morphed into their current form. Scientific investigation of omicron is still happening with new information coming out every moment that older views on its origins could change. But as of now, scientists are hypothesizing below three sources as Omicron's origin.
Animal sources: Since mid-2020 the strain infected some unknown animal populations, evolved, and then spilled back over to humans.
Hidden spread in an unmonitored region: Another possibility, from the mid-2020 the strain started circulating in an unmonitored location, evolved, becoming more transmissible, and exploding now.
Incubation within an immunocompromised person: The virus could be hiding inside the body of a person whose immune system was suppressed but strong enough to prevent it from killing the person. The virus continually reproduced, replicated, and finally evaded the person's antibody-producing immune cells, spreading into others.
Why does source matter?
A coronavirus infects the target cell either by cytoplasmic or endosomal membrane fusion, releasing RNA into the cytoplasm for replication. The fusion capacity indicates the infectivity of the corresponding virus. Researchers are looking at three specific mutations known as a Furin cleavage site. Furin is an enzyme that SARS-CoV-2 needs to become fully functional and develop as a disease in the human body. If omicron evolved in one person's body and then recently spread to a wider population in a shorter time period, then it suggests the variant as highly transmissible. Omicron's source will help scientists to assess the potential threat.
Regardless of the origin, the development of omicron warns us that dangerous future COVID-variants can be created. Scientists believe that vaccines should hold well in terms of preventing hospitalizations. Also, the WHO report states, "Despite uncertainties, it is reasonable to assume that currently available vaccines offer some protection against severe disease and death" that may be caused by this variant.

The Drummin Bog Project: Celebrating Carlow's only Raised Bog
Welcome to the Drummin Bog Project
Drummin Bog is a wetland: restoring wetlands help us achieve all 17 Sustainable Development Goals
A Place to Learn about Carlow's Natural Heritage
Drummin Bog is the last remaining example of a raised bog in the South East of Ireland and is a site of considerable significance. The Bog is currently in a degraded state both from extensive drainage and peat cutting (by hand). Clearance of encroaching trees and exotic invasive alien scrub was undertaken in 2016 under a Heritage Council grant as a first step in the restoration of the Bog.
The chief objectives of Drummin Bog Project are:
To restore the peatland site to an active peat-forming bog
To develop the bog and adjacent woodland as an amenity and educational resource
Funding is currently being sought to commission a suite of baseline scientific surveys and maps of the bog which will better inform and plan the future restoration of the site to active peat-forming capacity. This baseline data will initially include topographical, hydrogeological, geological and ecological. This will assist in monitoring the success of restoration measures undertaken.
Artistic strategies will also be employed alongside science activities to engage the hearts and minds of the local community to celebrate this unique natural heritage feature of South Carlow. Recording local cultural and folk histories of people who have long interacted with bog will be important. Artistic strategies to highlight the beauty and understanding of this unique natural heritage area are also planned to engage both the local community and visitors.
Overall, these science and art activities will develop the overall site at Drummin bog as a important South Carlow conservation, educational and amenity area for the local community and beyond.
