Billy Hurley III visits former ship at Pearl Harbor
By John Strege
Billy Hurley III, who shot 67 in the first round of the Sony Open in Hawaii on Thursday, enjoyed a homecoming of sorts the day before when the Naval Academy graduate went to Pearl Harbor and visited the ship on which he served, the destroyer Chung-Hoon, from 2007-2009, the Navy Times reported today.
"The ship looks great," Hurley said in a Defense Department news release. "The crew's doing great stuff, everyone's doing well, morale seems high, and it's really cool to come back."
Hurley, 31, served a tour of duty to the Persian Golf aboard the Chung-Hoon, which is based in Hawaii.
Hurley, who last played the PGA Tour in 2012, ranks 65th on the PGA Tour money list with $162,684 early in the 2014 season.

Everyone Deserves To Have Secrets – Defend Trade Secrets Act of 2016
By Susan Kohn Ross
On May 11, 2016, President Obama signed into law the Defend Trade Secrets Act of 2016 (DTSA) which brought with it a new era of accountability and expediency in protecting employers' intellectual property. Whether proprietary lines of code in a software program, the secret recipe for fried chicken or highly-valued customer lists, "trade secrets" provide a competitive advantage for businesses. While the DTSA provides new avenues for employers to protect their trade secrets, it also imposes additional burdens, creating new whistleblower protections and imposing new notice requirements.
One of the DTSA's major benefits is that it provides employers with the option to pursue civil misappropriation of trade secret cases in federal court if the trade secret is related to a product or service used in, or intended for use in, interstate or foreign commerce. Until the passing of this law, trade secrets were regulated solely by state laws, which made it incredibly difficult and time consuming to prosecute misappropriation when the theft occurred across state lines or international boundaries. Under the DTSA, the employer still has the burden to establish that the material at issue constitutes trade secrets, meaning that the employer must show that it employed "reasonable measures" to protect the material.
The DTSA includes whistleblower protections that provide immunity for employees and other individuals who report thefts confidentially to the government or an attorney. If an employee claims retaliation for reporting a suspected trade secrets theft, that employee may disclose the trade secret to his or her attorney and use the trade secret in court, provided that such documents related to the trade secret are filed under seal and the employee does not disclose the trade secret except pursuant to court order.
Employers are required to give notice to employees (which includes contractors and consultants) about DTSA's whistleblower immunity provisions in any contract that governs the use of trade secret or other confidential information that is entered into after the enactment of the DTSA. Employers may comply with this requirement by including a cross-reference in the agreement to a written policy that fully explains the DTSA's immunity provisions. If an employer fails to provide the requisite notice, it may not be awarded exemplary (punitive) damages or attorneys' fees for any action brought under the DTSA.
DTSA provides various forms of remedies, including damages, injunctive relief, and even royalty structures for future use of the trade secret in cases where an injunction would be inequitable. Notably, a court may NOT grant an injunction that prevents a person from entering into an employment relationship or that otherwise conflicts with applicable state law prohibiting restraints on employee mobility.
Most companies with trade secrets and other critical business proprietary information have implemented some degree of security and limited access to that data. If you desire to have your company assessed for exposure of secrets, their likelihood of being stolen or your ability to enforce your rights under DTSA, feel free to contact us.
ASK MSK:
How significant of a problem is trade secret theft?
According to the Commission on the Theft of American Intellectual Property, American companies have suffered trade secret attacks by domestic and foreign culprits to the tune of $300 billion a year.
What steps should employers take now to comply with the DTSA?
In order to comply with the DTSA's notice requirements to employees, employers should revise any employment agreement that addresses trade secret or confidential information to either: (1) include information regarding whistleblower immunity for employee's confidential disclosure of trade secret information; or (2) cross-reference a policy that includes such information. Employers also are wise to update (1) whistleblower policies; (2) non-disclosure agreements; (3) trade secrets policies and procedures; and (4) consultant and contractor agreements.
How do I know if our company has taken reasonable measures to protect its trade secrets?
An employer should analyze the following to determine whether it has acted reasonably to protect trade secret information in order to benefit from the DTSA:
How are our trade secrets currently protected?
Do we allow hard or soft copies of any trade secrets to be maintained at employees' homes?
Is data allowed to be downloaded onto local drives on employee laptops?
How are our trade secret documents marked?
How is on-line access managed?
Are employees (including consultants and contractors) and other business partners required to sign non-disclosure agreements?
How do we manage the use of thumb drives?
How is access to our system monitored both during and after employment?
What is our "bring your own device" (BYOD) to work policy?
MSK attorneys are experienced in drafting policies and agreements to assist employers in establishing reasonable measures to protect trade secrets. Please let us know if we can be of assistance in preparing or updating your documents.

Sweldong Pinoy and Budget Pinoy for 2022
By Jomar Tigcal - November 18, 2021
Update: Pag-IBIG will defer the increase in contribution again as they had a strong performance in 2021. The Sweldong Pinoy apps have been updated.
Sweldong Pinoy is a salary calculator for Filipinos in computing net pay, withholding taxes and contributions to SSS/GSIS, PhilHealth and PAG-IBIG. Next year, contributions will be changing again; we're updating Sweldong Pinoy with the new rates.
What's Changing?
Last year, contributions for SSS was increased and will still be the same. In accordance with the Universal Health Care Act (Republic Act No. 11223), the PhilHealth contribution rate will rise to 4.0% (from 3.5%) and the income ceiling will now be 80,000 (from 70,000). However, the increase for 2021 was deferred.
Pag-IBIG Fund members' mandatory monthly savings was also scheduled to increase from the current P100 to 150 by January 2021 and to 200 by January 2023. This was postponed to 2022.
Sweldong Pinoy and Budget Pinoy Updates
We have updated sweldongpinoy.com, budgetpinoy.com, and the Sweldong Pinoy (version 4.4) and Budget Pinoy (version 1.2) Android apps for the upcoming changes to the contributions.
The Sweldong Pinoy and Budget Pinoy web and Android apps have a dropdown so you can choose between the current or upcoming rates. With this, you compare how your salary will change from this year to next.
Sweldong Pinoy for 2022 (Android)
Budget Pinoy for 2022 (Web)
If any of the scheduled increase will be postponed (like with PhilHealth for 2021), we will be updating our apps as soon as it becomes official.
Let us know how we can improve Sweldong Pinoy. Contact us by email, Facebook Messenger, or with the Chatra app on our website. For more updates, follow us on Twitter, Instagram, and Facebook.

Q: LocationManager inside a fragment I'm trying to convert an Activity which uses LocationListener to a Fragment, using LocationManager like this:
protected LocationManager locationManager;
@Override
    public void onActivityCreated(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
        super.onActivityCreated(savedInstanceState);
    locationManager = (LocationManager) getActivity().getSystemService(
                Context.LOCATION_SERVICE);
(...)
}

I'm having some problems with these methods (can't get rid of the errors):
if (location != null) {
    // location known:
    onLocationChanged(location); // Error here
}

boolean startLocationUpdates() {
    boolean result = false;
    for (final String provider : locationManager.getProviders(true)) {
        locationManager.requestLocationUpdates(provider, 2 * 1000, 0.0f,
                this); // Error here
        result = true;
    }
    return result;
}

@Override
public void onPause() {
    super.onPause();
    locationManager.removeUpdates(this); // Error here
    savePrefs();
}

How can I use these methods inside a fragment?

A: You're mixing up the relationship between the LocationManager and the LocationListener that actually receives the updates. For example, onLocationChanged, where you indicate an error, is really a callback that the LocationListener you assign to that LocationManager uses to pass a new location object to your activity/fragment. It's not something you call yourself.
The way your LocationListener and LocationManager would interact is something like this. You'd have an instance of both within your fragment. onActivityCreated you would initilize both the LocationManager and LocationListener with the LocationListener implementing all the required callbacks below.
 locationListener = new LocationListener(){

        @Override
        public void onLocationChanged(Location location) {
            GeoPoint userLoc = processNewLocation(location);
            if(userLoc != null){
                Log.d("USERLOC", userLoc.toString());
                                    //do something with the location
            }
        }

        @Override
        public void onProviderDisabled(String provider) {
            locationManager = (LocationManager)getActivity().getSystemService(Context.LOCATION_SERVICE);
            if(locationManager.isProviderEnabled(LocationManager.GPS_PROVIDER)){
                locationManager.requestLocationUpdates(LocationManager.GPS_PROVIDER, 0, 0, locationListener);
            } else {
                locationManager.requestLocationUpdates(LocationManager.NETWORK_PROVIDER, 0, 0, locationListener);
            }
        }

        @Override
        public void onProviderEnabled(String provider) {
            locationManager = (LocationManager)getActivity().getSystemService(Context.LOCATION_SERVICE);
            if(locationManager.isProviderEnabled(LocationManager.GPS_PROVIDER)){
                locationManager.requestLocationUpdates(LocationManager.GPS_PROVIDER, 0, 0, locationListener);
            } else {
                locationManager.requestLocationUpdates(LocationManager.NETWORK_PROVIDER, 0, 0, locationListener);
            }
        }

        @Override
        public void onStatusChanged(String provider, int status, Bundle extras) {
            // TODO Auto-generated method stub

        }

    };

Your LocationListner would then call onLocationChanged each time the locatino change met whatever critera you assigned at creation. Check the android docs for LocationManager and LocationListener for more details.

"First and O" Murder Trial Expected to Start Today | Homicide Watch D.C. | Mark every death. Remember every victim. Follow every case.
Just one month after being sentenced to a 60-year prison term for shooting and killing Joseph Alonzo Sharps Jr, Kwan Kearney is due to stand trial again.
Kearney, who turned 21 on Wednesday, is suspected in the shooting death of Jamal Wilson. He and his co-defendant, Jeremy Risper, are expected to stand trial in that case today.
Wilson was shot through the chest early in the morning of Nov. 14 after being pursued by two men in the Truxton Circle neighborhood. MPD Homicide Detective Hosam Nasr, who testified in a preliminary hearing in the case, said police believe Wilson was shot on a playground in the unit block of P Street where bullet casings were found. Emergency responders found Wilson further down the block. Wilson fell on the playground after being shot, got up, ran from the scene, fell again, stood up with assistance from a friend, and ran again before collapsing, Nasr said.
Kearney's brother and Risper and testified in a murder trial against "Psycho" and "Psycho" had been convicted, Sayboldt said. Some members of "First and Oak O" were upset that the men had worked with prosecutors.
Wilson's death is linked to the killing of Joseph Alonzo Sharps Jr.—which took place just six days prior—by a gun. Prosecutors allege that Kearney shot at Wilson using a gun that Larnell Allen had used to shoot Sharps. Prosecutors believe Kearney and Risper stole the gun from Allen sometime after Sharps was killed. Allen pleaded guilty in the death of Sharps; Kearney was convicted of first-degree murder while armed.
Judge Thomas Motley is expected to hear the case beginning at 9:30 a.m.

On December 15th, in 2018, SARTEAM was called to intervene and provide emergency assistance following the disappearance and possible crash of a helicopter in the mountainous region of Valongo, Portugal.
SARTEAM deployed four of its vehicles together with sixteen trained rescuers during this emergency.
This deployment involved a search along a wide mountainous area during strong rainfall with poor visibility due to the heavy fog. After four hours of continuous search efforts, the team located the wreckage of the aircraft whereby, unfortunately, the four crew / passengers were found to be deceased as a result of the crash.
This operation was very complex in terms of technical search because of the complex mountain region where it was carried out. The area has an intricate network of underground caves with vertical open accesses that presented serious fall hazards to the rescue operatives.
SARTEAM is the lead member team of EVOLSAR in Portugal. It is commanded by Francisco Rocha, a highly experienced technical rescuer in various rescue disciplines.


This is another unique concept of Vedic Astrology. A Yoga Karaka planet which can change the whole course of your life towards positivity.
So, in our horoscope, in total we have 12 houses. All these houses are divided in different categories. One such category is Kendra Houses and Trikona Houses.
Kendra Houses are Houses # 1, 4, 7 and 10.
Trikona Houses are Houses # 1, 5 and 9.
So, a Yoga Karaka planet is that planet which is lord of a Kendra House as well as a Trikona Houses. Like, for Cancer Ascendant, 5th house (a Trikona House) has Scorpio sign and 10th house (a Kendra House) has Aries sign. Now, both Scorpio and Aries are ruled by Mars. So, Mars is lord of a Kendra House and Trikona House, hence Mars becomes Yoga Karaka Planet for Cancer Ascendant people. Now, if Mars is even decently placed, then Mars Mahadasha or Antardasha can bring great results for Cancer Ascendant people in matter of Education and Career.
1. Taurus Ascendant - Saturn [being the lord of 9th house (Capricorn - Trikona House) and 10th house (Aquarius - Kendra House)].
2. Cancer Ascendant - Mars [being the lord of 5th house (Scorpio - Trikona House) and 10th house (Aries - Kendra House)].
So, for these given Ascendants, these planets will work like a Yoga Karaka planet and in Mahadashas of these planets, person can reach extreme heights in the things related with the houses involved.
Hope this was useful. Vedic Astrology is a vast ocean, we will always find a new pearl every time we dive-in.


Stress is certainly a destroyer of the peace that ALL believers are entitled to. If you consistently don't have peace, perhaps you believe you are born again but you are not. If you need help with this, let's talk. Fill out the contact form below.
Stress is pressure that causes us to worry and fret. It is diametrically opposed to the words of the Lord, when He admonishes us to "FRET NOT!" Stress eats away at those who are vexed to a point that an irritation is birthed, that functions like a living organism. Stress becomes a tangled thing that can eat away or gnaws at you in spirit, soul and body like a tapeworm or even a CANCER.
What I am noticing in my work as a pastor and deliverance counselor is that the enemy has noticeably improved his tactics in mocking a true conversion with a false one, primarily because the soul helps out the religious spirit that is assigned to produce a false conversion. So we need to be able to discern the difference between the soul and the spirit.
I remember when I got born again. I was sorrowing deep inside myself and my mind really did not know why. All of a sudden, I got a flash that was like a lightbulb turned on in my mind. I knew that I knew that I knew that Jesus was raised from the dead and I had no idea how or why I believed such a preposterous thing. It was preposterous to me because nothing that dies comes back to life, so how could I believe in a human being died and came back to life, since for 3 decades I did not even believe that Jesus existed!!! So faith in His resurrection was just "there." In me. It was like faith was dropped into my spirit and my mind was activated. That faith on the resurrection has been stuck in me like an immoveable stone. It was seconds after I believed on the resurrection that my spirit was born again.
On the contrary, when the soul "accepts Jesus," the spirit remains dead. Remarkably, with great subconscious acting skills, the soul can religiously imitate the things of God. The fallen spirit of man, alienated and separated from God is sunk down into the soul so that the soul manifests itself as intellect or sensuality, often in both. In such cases, the soul reigns over both the spirit and the body. The way that the new life reaches the spirit is shown in the Lord's own words: You must be born again. The Holy Ghost "breathes" where ever He chooses.
Salvation is not the decision of man but the will of God.

Will Seat Width Impact Boeing and Airbus's Future Success?
Thomas Mentel Google+
Boeing (NYSE:BA) and Airbus, the world's two largest planemakers and fierce rivals, are currently embroiled in a dispute over the width of tourist-class seats on long-distance flights. While the argument may seem silly, seating layout can have crucial effects on performance , and both airplane manufacturers are set for a tense standoff at this month's Dubai Airshow.
According to Reuters, the dispute focuses on the width of seats on long-haul flights for economy passengers — an area in which allocated space can have strong effects on efficiency claims. Earlier this week, Airbus called for an industry standard of 18 inches (46 cm) wide for economy cabin seats, but Boeing rejected the idea, stating that airlines should be the ones to decide on width.
The dispute has become increasingly heated as the market for twin-engine, long-distance, aircraft expands, with potential record-breaking orders expected at the Dubai Airshow held from November 17 to 21.
The layout of the rear seating in "mini-jumbo" jet designs can make a huge difference in economic performance, with the difference between nine or ten seats abreast being the most important factor. While Boeing's revamped 777X will hold 406 people with economy seats of 17 inches wide and ten in each row, Airbus has stated that the competing A350 will carry 350 passengers with 18 inch wide economy seats at nine in each row.
Reuters suggests that a recent Airbus presentation to financiers is likely a preview of a heated advertising war between the two companies, with one slide showing three people squished together at a restaurant amid the title, "Would You Accept This?" Airbus sales chief John Leahy said, "Boeing is proposing long-distance flying in seats narrower than regional turbo-props," while the company has maintained that longstanding plane seating sizes need to change as the average waist size of 21st-century American male has increased to 39.7 inches.
Boeing has countered with the stance that manufacturers are not responsible for an airline's decision for balancing fares and facilities, adding that research has shown cabin experience goes beyond width of seat. "It really comes down to providing flexibility to airlines and allowing them to do the things that they believe they need to do to be successful," Boeing cabins-expert Kent Craver explained. "They don't want us to dictate to them what makes them profitable. They know their business better than anyone else."
With an estimated $700 billion at stake in plane orders over the coming decades, it might seem surprising that seat layout could be the biggest factor in the competition between Boeing and Airbus. Kevin Keniston, head of passenger comfort at Europe's Airbus, says that Boeing's decision to cram more seats in their airplanes is an attempt to "make their plane more competitive with our products." But analysts say that 10-seat-per-row cabins on existing 777 jets suggest that passengers are all right with the layout as long it means cheaper fares.
According to cabin interiors expert Mary Kirby, founder and editor of the Runway Girl Network, while "18 inches in seat width would be great for passengers," Airbus's push for larger seat standards is likely a business strategy "driven by the threat of the 777″ — a strategy that some experts say could distract from a huge wave of Boeing 777X sales.

JUPITER, Fla. (AP) — A Florida golf club owned by President Donald Trump has agreed to pay $5.45 million to settle a lawsuit brought by former members.
The Sun Sentinel reported Monday that the agreement must still be approved by the courts.
A class-action lawsuit alleged Trump National Golf Club in Jupiter violated contract terms that 65 members had signed with the previous owner, Ritz-Carlton.
U.S. District Judge Kenneth Marra ruled against the golf club in February 2017. The settlement requires Trump's organization to pay 94 percent of the total judgment ordered by the federal judge. After deducting expenses and attorneys' fees, the class-action members will receive 71 percent of their refunds.
Trump took over the club in 2012.

When speaking of influential stories, it might be easy to overlook one of the greatest tales ever told. Listed as the most influential Christian book of the 19th century, Ben-Hur outsold all of its contemporaries, including any of Mark Twain's published works. It even topped the US all-time bestseller list until Gone With the Wind came out 50 years later.
That's pretty good for a book, but then the story was adapted into one of the greatest movies of all time, too. Breaking all kinds of records, Ben-Hur won 11 academy awards … a record that stood for 38 years and still hasn't been surpassed.
But how did this epic tale of revenge-turned-redemption come about? It may surprise you to find out that Lew Wallace didn't have the best intentions at heart. In fact, he was more interested in disproving Christianity than writing a novel that intersected with the real life, death, and resurrection of Christ.
I had just read "Ben Hur," writes X., and the book was on the table before me when the author, Lew Wallace, stepped in. I pointed to the book and told him that it had brought me much blessing. "I know I shall read it several times," I remarked.
"This thought made a deep impression on me and we discussed the possibilities of such a book. As we bade farewell I said I would try to gather material for such a book and have it published as the masterpiece of my life and the crowning glory of my work.
"I went to Indianapolis, my home, and told my wife about my purpose. She was a member of the Methodist Church and naturally did not like my plan, but I had decided to do it and began to collect material in libraries here and in the old world. I gathered everything I could find that would throw light over that period in which Jesus Christ, according to sayings, should have lived. Several years were spent in this work. When I had accumulated all possible proof I began to write the book. I had written nearly four chapters, when it became clear to me that Jesus Christ was just as real a personality and teacher as Socrates, Plato, Caesar and other ancient men. The conviction became certainty—I knew that Jesus Christ had lived on earth, because of the facts connected with the period in which He had lived.
"I was in an uncomfortable position. I had begun to write a book to prove that no such person as Jesus Christ had ever lived on earth; now I was face to face with undeniable proof that He was just as historic a personage as Julius Caesar, Mark Anthony, Virgil, Dante and a host of other men who had lived in the olden days. I asked myself candidly, 'If He was a real person (and there was no doubt) was He not then also the Son of God and the Savior of the World?' Gradually the conviction grew that since Jesus Christ was a real person, then He probably was the one He claimed to be. This conviction became so strong that at last it grew into a certainty.
"One night, I shall never forget it, I fell on my knees to pray for the first time in my life and I asked God to reveal Himself to me, forgive me my sins and help me to become a follower of Christ. Toward morning the light broke into my soul. I went into my wife's bedroom, woke her and told her that I had received Jesus Christ as my Lord and Savior. You should have seen her face when I told her of my new faith!
"We knelt at the bedside in the early morning and together we thanked God for His mercy and His guidance in directing me to Him. I do not believe that there is more joy in heaven than we found that morning when we, after many years of marriage, became united in fellowship with Jesus Christ.
I read Ben Hur, A Tale of the Christ, years ago. I have seen Ben Hur many times. I knew a bit about Lew Wallace, but your blog was a blessing to me. Thank you! God bless you.
That's so encouraging to hear! Thanks for sharing.
thanks be to the Lord Jesus Christ!


XC Course Starting with a short fire road climb, the course loops around Low Range which includes Roxy's Ramble. Leaving the event centre again the course steadily climbs up the beautifully put together Goat Track and Intestine Trail.
When exiting Intestine the crux of the climb begins on the fire road. Steadily to begin with, then a false flat, with the final steep pinch where category placings will no doubt be decided. From here, the highest point, the real fun begins. Descend the initial sections of the intense No More Secrets, then onto the twisting trails of the Dirt Luge, Trail Fairy and then the trail that tops them all "SHELOBS REVENGE".
Shelobs is a lightning fast, super smooth piece of single trail that you will never forget. Complete with obstacles that can be taken at light speed with perfect flow that allows the fearless to put the brakes in the back pocket and enjoy the ride!!! The course then loops around to the event centre including a short pinchy climb that will make the legs scream and the quality singles of the Twister. This course will prove popular with riders of all abilities. It's only as hard as you want to make it.
There's about 20km of trail on Crown land, including a 9km race track that hosts a Victorian Enduro Series round. But there's roughly another 20km on private property abutting Nail Can that's legal to ride thanks to the friendly relations between the club and landowners.
Close to the main Range Road trailhead the club's extensive efforts to realign trails are obvious. There is some signage and more to come. Highlights are the awesome descent along Dirt Luge and the super-quick Shelobs Revenge. Further out it gets gnarlier. This is a rocky hill, so you'll quickly improve your technical climbing and descending skills as you negotiate challenging trails like Mine Your Line and the ominously named Blood Gully.


Chairman of Special Monitoring Mission of the OSCE in Ukraine (OSCE SMM) Ertugrul Apakan stated that 16 people died from natural causes and 20 people died in the result of the combat actions. This happened during the crossing of the demarcation line in Donbas since the beginning of the winter, as OSCE reported.
As we reported the OSCE Council decided to renew the mandate of the Special Monitoring Mission to Ukraine (SMM) by another year.
Earlier the drone of the OSCE mission spotted four jet military airplanes above the village of Lastochkine.

Vandenberg Air Force Base: the role of military space in U.S. warmaking
Andrew Lichterman
MacGregor Eddy, a California central coast activist, goes on trial in Santa Barbara, California this Thursday, March 16. Eddy, who believes that activities at Vandenberg Air Force Base violate international law by providing direct support to an Iraq war she believes to be illegal, has been accused of attempting to enter the base unlawfully. At the time, she was carrying written materials supporting her views which she hoped to deliver to base authorities. More information about the trial and about ongoing organizing activities related to Vandenberg can be found at the Vandenberg Peace Legal Defense Fund web site.
Vandenberg, an immense base occupying thirty five miles of California coastline, launches and operates satellites that provide U.S. forces on the ground with space services ranging from weather reports and communications to Global Positioning System (GPS) guidance for bombs. In addition to its everyday support for U.S. military forces fighting wars in Iraq and Afghanistan, Vandenberg tests intercontinental ballistic missiles and missile defense interceptors, and is likely to play a role in development of the next generation of "prompt global strike" strategic weapons. Vandenberg, along with Fort Greeley, Alaska, also are the first deployment sites for land based mid-course ballistic missile interceptors. I have written a short overview of Vandenberg's role in the U.S. policy and practice of preventive war for Western States Legal Foundation, Vandenberg Air Force Base: Where the Present and Future of U.S. Warmaking Come Together.
MacGregor Eddy Says:
Update on this item. I was convicted of trespass and I will be sentence on June 15 in Santa Barbara federal court. There will be a peace protest at noon June 15 in front of the federal building at 1415 State Street Santa Barbara. At 1:30 inside will be the sentencing. Join us for the peace protest at noon and speak up. For the latest information on Vandenberg's role see the website for the Western States Legal Foundation www.wslf.org MacGregor

Classical music: There was so much to like about the Grand Tour finale of the 2019 Madison Early Music Festival. But where were the high notes in Allegri's legendary "Miserere"?
Fair is fair.
Before he talks about last Saturday night's conclusion of the successful 2019 Madison Early Music Festival – which marked its 20th anniversary — The Ear has a confession to make: He generally prefers later Baroque music and he generally prefers instrumental music to vocal or choral music.
That said, he nonetheless had a memorable and very enjoyable time on the "Grand Tour" during the well-attended All-Festival concert. There was so much to like and to admire.
The concert used the conceit of a Grand Tour by a composite 17th-century traveler going to London, Venice, Rome, Naples, Paris and Dresden to take in the local sights and local music, and included lesser-known composers such as William Lawes and William Child as well as such famous figures as Claudio Monteverdi, Giovanni Gabrieli , Jean-Baptiste Lullyand Heinrich Schütz.
Like most journeys, this one – once again assembled in an ingenious scissors-and-paste job by early music specialist Grant Herreid (below) – had many entertaining and uplifting moments.
But it also had one big disappointment.
The Ear really looked forward to hearing a live performance of the famous "Miserere" by Gregorio Allegri (below) as a high point. But those haunting, ultra-high descant notes that give you goosebumps and that you never forget hearing just never materialized.
Maybe it had to do with the different ornamentation that the MEMF forces used. Maybe it was based on a different manuscript or score. Maybe there was no one capable of singing those spellbinding and unforgettable high notes.
Whatever the reason, The Ear's hope for a live performance of the dramatic and iconic work were dashed and the famous, even classic, recorded versions – the 1980 recording by the Tallis Scholars is heard in the YouTube video at the bottom — remain for him the unsurpassed standard.
The evening also had its ironies. That same night on the NBC TV news The Ear saw a story about "overtourism" in Europe and China. Venice, for example, has now shrunk to only about 50,000 unhappy residents who put up with some 20 million tourists a year.
But centuries ago, travel was a rare and exotic luxury of the wealthy and well-educated, not an affordable indulgence or curiosity by ever-expanding middle classes. And this metaphorical trip proved an ideal vehicle to sample 16th- and 17th-century music in England, France, Germany and Italy.
Combining high culture and low, Herreid chose witty and detailed travelogue texts that gave the audience the rich flavor of various cultures at the time.
Details mattered to the four sharp-eyed travelers on which this tour was based. So as "our hero" wandered, we got to hear about the "libidinous ladies" of Naples and the musical talented courtesans of Venice as well as the richly attired archbishop of Paris attending a feast day service in the newly finished Notre-Dame cathedral.
Such descriptions were well delivered by unnamed narrators (below) from the chorus and proved a refreshingly earthy and entertaining counterpoint to the more serious spiritual and religious music of the era.
Another big satisfaction was the exceptional quality of the ensemble playing – exhibited even in large amounts of less interesting music — by the many singers and instrumentalists on the stage of Mills Hall, and, at one point, in the hall's balcony.
Whether the players and singers were conducted by Herreid or by assistant conductor Jerry Hui — a UW-Madison graduate who is now a tenured professor at UW-Stout — the music sounded tight, authentic and expressive.
As for more superficial pleasures, it is great visual fun watching such early versions of modern string, wind and percussion instruments being played — trombone-like sackbuts, oboe-like shawms, flute-like recorders and lute-like theorbos. (Below are cello-like viols.)
The players, both faculty and students, were particularly convincing on their own in the sound painting done to depict battle scenes and political upheaval. And who will ever forget the surprise of loud foot-stomping by all the performers and conductor?
Herreid was absolutely spot-on to keep the program to about 80 minutes with no intermission. It helped the audience stay in the spirit of the Grand Tour and added cohesion to the program.
The Grand Tour, in short, proved outstanding in concept and excellent in execution.
But was The Ear alone in missing to those high notes?

Classical music: UW choral groups and a jazz quintet join forces Saturday night for a FREE concert of world premieres to honor the bicycle
Here is an announcement from the University of Wisconsin-Madison's Mead Witter School of Music:
A FREE concert — called "Free Wheeling: A Tribute to the Bicycle" – takes place this Saturday night at 7 p.m. in Mills Hall.
The UW Madrigal Singers (below) and Chorale, under the direction of Bruce Gladstone, will join forces with a jazz group.
The concert opens with five world premieres, written specifically for this concert.
"I was surprised, given the bicycle's popularity, that there weren't many choral works about bikes," noted Gladstone (below, in a photo by Katrin Talbot). "It seems to be more the domain of the solo popular ballad or rock bands. There are loads of poems about bikes though, so I just commissioned new works from composers I know."
There are two works from John Stevens (below), veteran composer and UW-Madison emeritus professor. "Toasting Song" is a rollicking number about the pleasures of both cycling and wine. "A Bicycler's Song" takes a poem in praise of bicycles and cycling and sets it in a vocal jazz idiom reminiscent of the Manhattan Transfer.
UW-Madison alumus and former Madrigal Singer Scott Gendel (below) also provided two new works for this event. "She Waits for Me" is a lush ballad that celebrates the joys of love and loyalty, while "Little Things" offers us a cautionary tale of a cyclist's visit to church one Sunday morning.
Carl Buttke, a current graduate student, composed the fifth new work for this concert, a picturesque tale of a memorable day spent in the Austrian Alps, "Cycling the Rosental."
The program will also include a fast and fun work for women's voices, "The Bike Let Loose," by composer Edie Hill.
This concert occurs at the end of the School of Music's Jazz Week by design, since the major work in the concert is scored for massed choirs and jazz quintet.
The singers are joined by the UW's Blue Note Ensemble (below top), directed by UW professor Johannes Wallmann (below middle), for a performance of "Song Cycle" by Alexander L'Estrange (below bottom and in the YouTube video at the bottom).
The work was written in 2014 for the grand start of the Tour de France in York, England. Comprised of 10 movements, the work looks at the invention of the bicycle, the social changes that it wrought, and the joys that cycling offers to all.
It's a charming and witty trip that is fun for the whole family, even giving the audience an opportunity to sing along.
The concert is free and all are encouraged to wear their favorite biking togs and join in the fun!

Classical music: American music is in the spotlight this weekend as pianist Olga Kern returns in a concerto by Samuel Barber and the Madison Symphony Orchestra performs Dvorak's "New World" Symphony
This weekend, the Madison Symphony Orchestra (MSO, below in a photo by Peter Rodgers), with music director John DeMain conducting, will present its second concert of the season, featuring music "From the New World."
"From the New World" features the return of soloist Olga Kern in her take on an American classic — Samuel Barber's only Piano Concerto — for her fourth appearance with the MSO. This piece is accompanied by Maurice Ravel's Mother Goose Suite and is followed after intermission by Antonin Dvorak's Symphony No. 9, know as the "New World Symphony," inspired by the prairies of America.
The concerts take place in Overture Hall of the Overture Center, 201 State St., on Friday, Oct. 20, at 7:30 p.m.; Saturday, Oct. 21, at 8 p.m.; and Sunday, Oct. 22, at 2:30 p.m.
Ravel's Mother Goose Suite was originally written as a suite of "Five Children's Pieces for Piano Four Hands" and was later orchestrated by the composer and expanded into a ballet in 1911. The piece by Ravel (below) is comprised of 11 sections, many of which are based on five fairy tales of Charles Perrault, most specifically those of his Contes de ma Mère l'Oye (Mother Goose Tales).
The Piano Concerto was written in Samuel Barber's mature years, and is characterized by a gain in depth of expression and technical mastery from his earlier lyrical style. The piece was met with great critical acclaim and led to Barber (below) winning his second Pulitzer Prize in 1963 and a Music Critics Circle Award in 1964. (You can hear the second and third movements in the YouTube video at the bottom.)
Russian-American Pianist Olga Kern (below) is recognized as one of her generation's great pianists. She jumpstarted her U.S. career with her historic Gold Medal win at the Van Cliburn International Piano Competition in Fort Worth, Texas as the first woman to do so in more than 30 years.
Winner of the first prize at the Rachmaninoff International Piano Competition she was 17, Kern is a laureate of many international competitions. In 2016, she served as jury chairman of both the Seventh Cliburn International Amateur Piano Competition and first Olga Kern International Piano Competition, where she also holds the title of artistic director.
Kern has performed in famed concert halls throughout the world including Carnegie Hall, the Great Hall of the Moscow Conservatory, and the Theatre du Chatelet in Paris. She has appeared with the Madison Symphony Orchestra three times — in 2009, 2010 and 2014.
Composed in 1895 while Dvorak (below) was living in New York City, his Symphony No. 9 (often referred to as the "New World Symphony") is said to have been inspired by the American "wide open spaces" of the prairies that he visited during a trip to Iowa in the summer of 1893.
The "New World Symphony" is considered to be one of the most popular symphonies ever written, and was even taken to the moon with Neil Armstrong during the Apollo 11 mission in 1969.
One hour before each performance, Anders Yocom (below, in a photo by James Gill), Wisconsin Public Radio host of "Sunday Brunch," will lead a 30-minute Prelude Discussion in Overture Hall to enhance concertgoers' understanding and listening experience.
For more background on the music, please read the Program Notes by MSO trombonist and UW-Whitewater professor J. Michael Allsen (below), at:
http://www.allsenmusic.com/NOTES/1718/2.Oct17.html
The Madison Symphony Orchestra recommends that concert attendees arrive early for each performance to make sure they have time to pass through Overture Center's security stations, and so they can experience the pre-concert Prelude Discussion (free for all ticket-holders) one hour before the performance.
The October concerts also coincide with UW-Madison's Homecoming Weekend celebration — another reason that MSO patrons are advised to arrive early for the concerts this weekend, especially on Friday.
Single Tickets are $18-$90 and are on sale now at https://www.madisonsymphony.org/singletickets, through the Overture Center Box Office at 201 State Street, or by calling the Box Office at (608) 258-4141.
Groups of 15 or more can save 25% by calling the MSO office at (608) 257-3734. For more information, got to: https://www.madisonsymphony.org/groups.
Student rush tickets can be purchased in person on the day of the concert at the Overture Center Box Office at 201 State Street. Students must show a valid student ID and can receive up to two $12 or $18 tickets.
You can find more information at: https://www.madisonsymphony.org/studentrush
The first "Club 201 Concert and After-Party" of the season takes place on Friday, Oct. 20. The $35 ticket price includes one concert ticket ($68-$90 value), plus the after-party with hors d'oeuvres, cash bar, and one drink ticket. Club 201 Events are an opportunity for music enthusiasts 21 and over to connect with each other, and meet MSO musicians, Maestro John DeMain, and special guests.

Second Cutest Little Wrench Ever?
Didn't want to step on Clippers thread.
It's cool, but only raised more questions.
Metric? On something from the 1920s? And then there's that "95" left of the logo. Diamond apparently gone for years by 1995, so again, more questions.
I was surprised by the arrow (near the hang hole), showing the correct direction to use an adjustable wrench. I've been using an adjustable for 50 years, and never knew. So, any ideas on it's age? Do I have it right (1920s)?
Re: Second Cutest Little Wrench Ever?
No. Its modern! Early items would have been marked as Diamond Calk Horseshoe Co.
Also it would have been marked as tool steel - not Dimalloy or been shiney/chrome. Early forgings were marked as DULUTH MINN - not USA. I believe they were still in business in 95. The metric markings & direction arrows are both modern, The 95 could just be a die marking. I have a better history of them, just need to find it.
Fig. 59. Diamond 10 Inch Wide Opening Adjustable Wrench, ca. 1983+.
Fig. 59 shows a later Diamond 10 inch wide opening adjustable wrench, marked with the Diamond logo plus "Wide Opening" and "No Hammering" forged into the shank, with "U.S.A." on the reverse (not shown).
The overall length is 10.0 inches. The jaws of this model open up to about 1.3 inches, compared to about 1.1 inches for a standard 10 inch wrench. The maximum head thickness was measured at 0.57 inches.
The finish is chrome plating with polished faces. httpAbove is from Alloy Artifacts, just read down a little farther in the Diamond section. So, yours is after 1983.
Clearly, I missed that. I thought I saw all the pics there, although I did stay with the 4"ers. Thanks. I'm not sure I'll ever have a need for a 4" adjustable, but I have it.
Nice find in your pile of tools. I use a 4 inch off brand adjustable as a caliper for sizing cutting for my fruit tree grafting.
I like this one better. Got one like it yesterday. AA says it is from the mid to late 1920's.
I carried a 4" adjustable in my pocket for almost 40 years. Had all brands over the years, incl. Craftsman, snap-on, crescent, and some Japanese and Chinese no namers.
Nobody yet noted the sub-specialty of collecting 4-inch adjustables. A couple of people have compiled lists that run into the hundreds of variants. One high-dollar 4-incher is the WESTCOTT #74 "s" handle.
recently got good money for a 4" Westcott.
Our member Mr Chuck as many of the 4" models in his collection.
As long as we're talking Diamond--- Being from Minnesota I know people who "collect" the brand as having local interest and beam with pride whenever they find one thinking they so-so very special. Also come across people trying to sell them at premium prices as being something really rare & valuable. Having used and collected tools for a long time it seems to me just about every auction box of tools, tractor tool box, or homeowner tool box has an adjustable wrench. Most likely Diamond or Crescent brand. I'm guessing those 2 brands account for 90% or more of all USA production? I just looked through the Alloy Artifacts info showing all the different markings and such. I have 30-40 4" adjstables and somebody once tried to tell me the one with the horseshoe stamped on both sides is really rare, seems it's just a little older than some?
After reading this, it made me go look at the 65 I have managed to accumulate. Surprisingly, not a single Diamond, except in a 4-6 double ender, which doesn't count. I've got more Proto's than any others. I'll have to pay more attention in the future.
I just went and checked my horde of 4 inchers. Proto, Western Giant, Crescent, Utica, Craftsman and Diamond. My Diamond is the same as Stan D's. I own about 15 of the Proto's as they are my favorites. My good friend Brian has a Plomb / Proto 4 inch model hanging on his kitchen wall. I have one Proto 4 incher I used for 13 years and lost it. Many years later I was cleaning out the grease / oil trap in the driveway at my job and found it at the bottom of the pit in good condition because the grease and oil kept it from rusting. I used it until all the little teeth on the thumb wheel were worn away. I worked in a wrecking yard and it was used and abused every day. It still works good and the jaws open up to 15 MM. I could have replaced the thumb wheel, but I retired it instead.
I was surprised by the arrow (near the hang hole), showing the correct direction to use an adjustable wrench. I've been using an adjustable for 50 years, and never knew.
See, we can all learn something new every day. Turning in that direction will reduce the strain on the adjustable jaw, and keep the wrench useful longer.

Alabama to hold a passport of a German man accused of the fire
OPELIKA, Ala. – A judge has refused to return a German man passport as he faces charges in Alabama accusing him of setting a fire at Toomer's Corner in Auburn, which is a popular place to celebrate Auburn University football wins.
Jochen Wiest is accused of setting fire to the toilet paper that covered one of the Toomer's oaks after the Auburn-Louisiana State University football game. He is charged with criminal mischief; desecration of a venerable object, and public drunkenness.
Wiest ' s lawyer had asked that he have his passport back, saying in court papers that he is not for himself financially in the United States and needs to go back to Germany.

Ohio Boy Scouts leader gets 8 years for sexually abusing boy
CLEVELAND (AP) — A former Ohio Boy Scouts leader who pleaded guilty to grooming and sexually abusing a troop member has received eight years in prison.
Cleveland.com reports 30-year-old Aaron Robertson apologized before sentencing Tuesday in Cleveland. He pleaded guilty last month to multiple counts of sexual battery and gross sexual imposition.
The boy was 13 when he reported the abuse in 2016. The teen was in the courtroom. He submitted a letter that said he and other scouts in the Olmsted Falls troop looked up to Robertson, a volunteer firefighter and auxiliary police officer. He wrote that small touches by Robertson led to the sexual abuse.
Robertson's attorney argued for a shorter prison term saying the sex was consensual. Robertson must register as a sex offender for the rest of his life.

If you are like me, you have always assumed the phrase appearance of evil (1 Thess. 5:22) has to do with conduct that might be construed as outside the bounds of godly living. The problem with this is that it uses one definition of the word "appearance" which means an outward show. That is not the meaning in the Bible. A Biblical definition of appearance is the exhibition of a person and the character of that person before God.
Thus, in some circles, a man and a woman spending time together alone may be frowned on because other people might get the "wrong idea." What this promotes is the paradigm of living our lives before men rather than before God. In this case, if the man and woman are pure in heart (love God and keep His commandments), being alone without any other person present is not in and of itself evil, or necessarily going to result in sin. Their conduct in that situation is to be judged in terms of God's Word and not whether or not someone could construe their behavior as inappropriate (evil).
In an age that has dismissed God's law as irrelevant, too many church people are more concerned about how things appear to others rather than behavior that the Bible allows. We are to be a self-governing people, cognizant that God is always privy to our thoughts, speech, and actions. We must remember that He is our primary audience. If what we are doing is righteous according to His law-word, then we need not concern ourselves over what others may think or conclude. If we shun the appearance of evil rather than evil itself, we are becoming practical hypocrites, more concerned with how we are viewed by men than how we are viewed by God. If on the other hand, our foremost concern is to honor God by keeping His commandments, then we will not be enslaved to the rules of men.
Does this mean that we should be reckless in our behavior? Not at all. We don't take our liberty to obey God to mean that we trample on weaker brothers and sisters in the faith, confusing them by our actions (1 Cor. 8:9). Our motives for anything that we think, say, or do, need to be governed by the Kingdom principle to seek God's righteousness in everything, knowing that by doing so, we will receive blessings from Him.
This is an excellent point. The standard application of the verse to avoid appearance of evil always seemed odd to me. I knew my morals were OK. It was always assumed that Christians couldn't control their behavior which is not biblical. We are guided by the Holy Spirit..
