Black People Have a Right to Rebel
Lorenzo Komboa Ervin's analysis of the place of the 2001 Cincinnati riots within the history of US urban riots and the struggle against racism.
A massive anti-cop rebellion has broken out in Cincinnati over the police shootings of 15 Black men, ranging in ages of 12-44 years old, all unarmed. The latest case of Timothy Thomas, a 19-year old brother, allegedly wanted for misdemeanor traffic offenses, was gunned down last week by a crazed white cop. The Black community has risen up in a massive protest against this racist occupying army, poverty, and other forms of mistreatment. Now, we are being told by various White politicians and their paid Uncle Toms that even more massive police violence should be trained on us "to keep the peace", and "stop the violence". Not the cop violence and murder, which has gone on for years, but the current rebellion by our people against police forces.
I have heard this garbage for years. Going back to the 1965 Watts rebellion, when Black folks rebelled after years of LAPD racist brutality, it was a line put forth by the white ruling class and its Negro spokespersons that we were "torching our own neighborhoods". Never mind that we didn't own a damn thing in the ghetto, that it was the cops themselves shooting and torching Black homes, and that this was a clearly a struggle with deep roots in historical oppression, the government's line was duly picked up by the negrosie, and passed off as "truth", along with "the police right to stop looters" and "we need peace". Not about justice justice, not about stopping police murders of our people, but that we must stop our resistance against our oppressors. That is their only concern, restoring "law and order."
We are an oppressed people, who have the moral and political right to rebel. We are fighting oppression, and seeking freedom. We are opposing terrorism by military agents of the white government. We have been historically enslaved, and our youth are being imprisoned and killed in massive numbers, so we must fight back or become an extinct species. There are those who say that if we will only be "peaceful" those in power will listen to us. This has never happened, and truthfully none of the civil rights bills of the 1960's outlawing Southern segregation, and other concessions of that period, would have been passed if the white government was not afraid of Black people erupting in the streets. So street rebellion is effective.
Neither I nor anyone else can say with complete accuracy, but I think we can soon expect to see other such rebellions in various American cities because similar contradictions exists, and even more murderous police forces guard the white rich of those places. For example, Detroit is a city which could go up at any time. It leads the USA in the number of fatal police shootings of civilians, most of whom are Black. It has a corrupt government, which allows violence by police, drug-peddling, robbery, and other offenses by officers. There are Detroit officers, like Eugene Brown, who have killed several persons, and yet never been punished. He is protected by the Mayor and the police union. Although worse in Detroit, police brutality goes on all over the country, along with political coverups to protect them. I hear white folks and middle class negroes say that if we arm ourselves and resist, "even more of us will be killed." I don't propose individual resistance, but rather community defense, and I believe then we will talk about funerals on both sides.
Our task, as an oppressed people, is to work to overthrow white supremacy and capitalist rule. That is the true nature of this government, not a so-called democracy" where we can expect fair treatment. This system is based on and maintained by our oppression. This is why I believe that the task of Black radicals is not to call for new federal legislation, an FBI investigation, or a citizen review board. We must educate our people about the truth of this system, and begin to build a mass resistance movement against racism and internal colonialism. This resistance should be by any means necessary, and we must have an armed self-defense policy. I have always rejected pacifism. We must seek to build dual power base, and begin to win over the masses of the people, build a militia to protect it, and push the police and white government out of the community entirely. We must begin to govern ourselves, and create a new zone of Black power. The activists have got to stop looking in from the outside and doing all our organizing on the comfortable college campuses or suburbs, and begin to organize in the impoverished neighborhoods where the action is taking place. As activists, we have got to stop waiting on crises like the Cincinnati rebellion, and begin to set up organizing projects to make sure they don't happen, and when they do we can effectively retaliate. Yes, we have a right to rebel in Cincinnati, Los Angeles, New York, Atlanta, and anywhere else we are oppressed.
We are a class of poor and oppressed peoples who are fighting capitialism and racism all over the world. We are not alone, and when we fight we will find that the people of the world support our struggle.

A few times, even with capacity planning in place, we've hit disk capacity limits.
When this occurs you search for content which can be deleted to free up some space to get you moving again.
Here's my new quick fix for this: HunkaJunk files.
Create dummy files which take up space, but can be quickly & easily deleted without risk; giving you teh wiggle room you need to get moving again.
There are various ways this could be done, but a useful tool is FSUtil.
This allows you to create blank files which take up a defined number of bytes.
e.g. to create a 1GB file you could run the following code from the Windows command line.
– 1073741824 – is the filesize in bytes. NB: 1GB = 1024MB = 1024 * 1024 KB = 1024 * 1024 * 1024 bytes = 1,073,741,824 bytes.
How're you doing? The continuous employee engagement survey.
For the last few years my company's been doing annual employee engagement surveys; a questionnaire asking how much you enjoy working at the place, what the best and worst things are, whether you're thinking of leaving, etc. All of this data is aggregated and anonymised then a few months later presented back to us where we're asked to help guide the company forwards to get the scores up the following year (and hopefully make the company a better place to work in the process).
The issue with this is you're collecting data one day a year.
It's pretty hard to remember what's happened in that year, not comment on things from previous years, determine what's still relevant to report on and mostly avoid biasing your results based on your current mood / the week's events. As a result this kind of information isn't very revealing.
As things are applied to try to resolve any issues and improve work life in general there's no official feedback mechanism until the following year; at which point it's hard to rate what worked and what didn't.
A button. At the end of each day before going home employees go to a page on the intranet and press a button ["Woo" | "Meh" | "Ugh"] (number of options and their descriptions can vary per implementor's preference). They may optionally also add a short comment (though should use this feature sparingly). This is then registered along with the date and their username (anonymised if required; but in such a way that the user cannot submit multiple answers per day) and fed into a database. Next you have a graph showing an aggregated view of all employees satisfaction ratings (depending on anonymity preferences you can do this at individual levels, for teams, for offices, or for the whole company). You can now compare these results with any activities taking place to see what's upsetting people and what's keeping them motivated. You can also see problem areas and upcoming issues (if there's a long period of negative scores or everyone on a team gives a negative at the same time) and thus investigate and resolve them before they escalate. The comment function may provide additional information on why the scores are good/bad, and will also be useful if you continue with the annual detailed questionnaire as employees can look at their mood changes and the few comments they made throughout the year to remember key events to feed into this detail. Other benefits can come from including other info into your analytics (project deadlines, holidays, sick days, socials, weather (you can't control it but can see its effect and compensate), etc).
Since it's just a button it's not a burden – so people will be likely to use it. You also get the satisfaction of stamping a close to your work day.
Has anyone done something like this at their place?
Anyone know of a LifeHacker style site for doing this kind of thing already which could be utilised (it's pretty easy to build, but if there's stuff out there which already includes common data sets (e.g. weather in your area, ability to log meals to allow individuals to make themselves happier by eating healthier, etc. so much the better)?
To keep discussion in one place I've disabled comments on this post and have left a discussion on Hacker News: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=5646466.

Who is Nicole Olsen Wiki, Biography, Age, Net Worth, Instagram, Twitter, Unknown FACTS YOU NEED TO KNOW
Nicole Olsen Wiki – Nicole Olsen Biography
Left to die in a dog food bag full of maggots and fleas with her seven siblings, a puppy was adopted by her rescuer.
Nicole Olsen and her daughter Harper found their Kelpie-cross puppies when they heard them descend from a concrete bin at a truck stop between Wigley Flat and Kingston on November 1 in Murray, northeast of Adelaide.
The mother opened the lid and found two 20kg bags of dog food stacked one on top of the other with coat hanger wire wrapped around zippered locks to seal sick dogs inside.
After six surviving puppies were rehabilitated for five weeks by RSPCA volunteers, the Olsen family this week decided to adopt Angel, who was unlike their siblings in red color.
She was the smallest and seemed to struggle a lot, so we all had a soft spot for her, Ms. Olsen said, adding that she still regrets someone leaving the cubs to die.
The kids wanted to adopt all six babies, which of course was impractical, but we thought it was good to adopt at least one of them so that our kids could take care of it and enjoy the happy ending in such a sad way. status.'
Angel will now live with Ms. Olsen, her partner Michael, her daughter Harper and the 10-year-old poodle Harvey, who loves other dogs in the family.
In the days when the family was at work and school, the puppy was staying with her mother-in-law, Mary, who lives nearby.
'Angel won't be much lonely,' said Ms. Olsen.
"We are all determined to give Angel the best life a dog can have – we're happy to have him."
All six dogs that survived are now adopted.
When puppies were found, the temperature was 25C, which made the concrete and metal drum a hellish furnace for distressed puppies.
Unlike humans, dogs cannot sweat with their skin and rely on breathing and radiating heat through their paw pads and nose to regulate their body temperature and keep them cool.
It's almost impossible to cool off for a puppy trapped in bags of dog food in a hot metal box with seven others.
Miss Olsen was returning to her home in Gawler from a family event in Renmark and sought family members in the other two cars to rescue the cubs.
Family members split the puppies between three vehicles, and the two sickest dogs were wrapped in a towel and rubbed to keep them conscious.
After returning home in Gawler, RSPCA South Australia, he collected the puppies and took them to a veterinary clinic.
However, one of the seriously ill puppies died in transit, and the other dog under the bag was euthanized because it went too far.
The remaining six cubs, three females and three males, were infested with fleas and dehydrated.
"This event coincides with the apex of the insensitive treatment of animals," said Andrea Lewis, RSPCA Chief Inspector for South Australia.
'These pups were found purely by chance and we have no idea how long they have been there,' he said.
Whoever did this, you have to assume that he didn't want these pups to survive, because that person not only left them somewhere far away, but also put these young animals in tightly secured bags and then closed the litter box. .
"Beggars truly believe that anyone can do this to eight vulnerable puppies, and we invite any person who may be responsible for us to come forward."
Abandoning an animal is a crime under the SA's Animal Protection Act, and anyone convicted faces up to two years in prison or a $ 20,000 fine.
However, a conviction can lead to higher sentences due to the aggravated circumstances that caused two of the puppies to die.

Ophthalmology is a branch of medicine and surgery that focuses on the diagnosis and treatment of eye disorders. Medically trained doctors who care for patients who have eye and vision conditions are called ophthalmologists and are the only practitioners diagnosed and trained to treat all eye and vision problems. Their practice is very diverse, dealing with a wide range of issues and clinical conditions. Some of the most common conditions that they treat and manage include:
Minor and major eye injuries
Infectious eye disease
Proptosis (bulged eyes)
Corneal pathology
Retinal problems, such as bleeding and detachment or tears of the retina
Squints
Eye-related neurological problems
Intraocular inflammation
Chronic eye diseases, such as age-related macular degeneration and diabetic retinopathy.
An ophthalmologist can offer a wide range of medical services, including surgical eye procedures. Some of the most common procedures that ophthalmologists perform are as follows:
Eye examinations.
Specialized tests, such as ultrasonography of the eyes and optical coherence tomography (OCT).
Refractive surgery to correct vision, such as LASIK.
Cataract surgery.
Glaucoma surgery.
Cancer treatment.
Reconstructive surgery to repair birth abnormalities or trauma, such as crossed eyes.
Neoplasm removal.
Corneal transplants.
Repairing torn or detached retinas.
Strabismus surgery.
Oculoplastic surgery (plastic surgery around the eye).
Prescribing and fitting glasses and contact lenses.
How Long Should I Stay in Israel?
Your length of stay depends on the type of treatment you undergo. In general, you may need to stay in Israel for at least a week or to let your eyes recover and to attend follow-up checkups, where your ophthalmologist checks your condition and make sure that your eyes are healing properly. If everything is fine, they will allow you to leave for home. However, for some surgery, such as retinal detachment surgery, you should avoid flying until your eyes have fully healed. Therefore, it is best that you wait 3 to 4 weeks, sometimes even longer, before you travel home.
What's the Expected Recovery Time?
Recovery time depends on the type of surgery you underwent, your age, and overall health. It is generally recommended to rest your eyes for a few days. With LASIK, you may be able to return to work after a day. After a corneal transplant, you should wait for 2 to 3 weeks until you go back to work.
What Aftercare is Required?
Your ophthalmologist will give you instructions to care for your eye after the procedure. It is crucial that you follow all of them to have a quick recovery and obtain optimum results. To keep the result or to prevent complications, you will need to make some lifestyle changes, such as avoid smoking and staying active. You also need to attend regular checkups, typically once a year, with your local eye doctor or your ophthalmologist in Israel.
What's the Success Rate?
Thanks to the continuous advancement of ophthalmology, eye treatments, and surgeries are now highly successful and safe. For instance, the latest research of LASIK showed that it has a 99% success rate in achieving 20/40 vision or better, whereas the success rate of corneal transplant is as high as 90%. However, it is important to be aware of the risks and side effects of eye treatments and surgeries, such as dry eyes, temporary visual problems, overcorrections, under correction, astigmatism, regression, and, very rarely, vision loss.
Are there Alternatives?
For some eye problems, you may be able to go to an optometrist as an alternative. However, if your conditions need to be treated through surgery, your optometrist will refer you to an ophthalmologist.

Ophthalmology in and around Israel
Israel celebrated 70 years of independence in 2018 - in what is a truly ancient land. The world's only Jewish and democratic state is home to sites sacred to Judaism, Christianity, and Islam. While these holy places are truly unique attractions, there is more to Israel than religious heritage and complex politics. Jerusalem is the official capital and holy city to three world religions, previously mentioned, while Tel Aviv brims with beaches and bustles with urban vitality. Then there's the Dead Sea and Masada, the stark, stunning Negev, and fertile Galilee. The number of museums and cultural institutions per relative area is larger in Israel than anywhere in the world.
Home to more than 30 JCI accredited facilities, medical tourists visit Israel for a variety of procedures, but particularly dental and tertiary care. Ophthalmology procedures are also a popular choice.
Popular Parts of Israel
Israel is an alluring destination for those who want to appreciate its astonishing religious sites, stunning natural beauty, and remarkable historic relics.
Tel Aviv is the economic and technological center of Israel, with a population of over 400,000; it is the most populous city in the country. Located on the Mediterranean coastline, the city offers sunny beaches for any sun-chaser. The city has impressive architecture and has a modern cosmopolitan landscape. Tel Aviv Museum of Art houses works by international artists. In addition, it has a nonstop nightlife with a huge party option to fit every taste.
Haifa is the country's third-largest city and it is one of Israel's high-technology centers as well as a busy working port. The city may have an industrious image, but with a number of museums, gardens, and shrines, it is an amazing place to travel to. The Baha'i Gardens are possibly the most popular attraction as it is the final resting place of the prophet-herald of the Baha'i Faith. Tourists can have a bird's eye view from the platform at the top or take a free Panorama Tour.
Eilat is located at the southernmost tip of Israel and is the only Israeli city on the Red Sea. Families come to the city to have a good time on the beach and party-goers come for its all-night parties. The turquoise waters invite visitors to snorkel, scuba dive, or swim. It is recommended to stay in an Oasis at night to get a chance to stargaze under a clear desert night sky. During the day, visit the Eilat Mountains to have a beautiful view of an ancient desert.
Tsfat or Safed is a quaint mountain-top city surrounded by pine forests. Located at an elevation of 900 meters, the city enjoys warm summers and cold winters. It is a popular summer holiday resort frequented by Israelis and foreign visitors. Here, tourists will find synagogues, art galleries, and unique crumbling stone houses.
Jerusalem is one of the oldest cities in the world and three major Abrahamic religions (Judaism, Islam, and Christianity) considered it a holy city. Even though it has been destroyed and rebuilt over thousands of years, the city manages to endure its spiritual magnetism. It is overflowing with holy sites, diversity, and layers of history.
Weather and Climate in Israel
Israel is a year-round destination but the temperatures in the city vary widely. The coastal areas such as Tel Aviv and Haifa experiences a typical Mediterranean climate where the winters are rainy and the summers are hot. The area around Northern Negev has a semi-arid climate with hot summers and cool winters. The Southern Negev has a desert climate with extremely hot summers and mild winters. On the other hand, mountainous regions have pleasant summer and cold winters with a little snowfall.
Generally, the winter months from November to March are the coldest months in the country. When mountainous areas such as Jerusalem receives snowfall, the coastal areas experience heavy rainfall. Summer starts in June and ends in August and it is the hottest season in every part of the country, especially in the desert area where the heat can be overbearing. The seasons of spring and autumn have the best weather, with pleasant temperatures and fewer rainy days.
Getting Around in Israel
Ben Gurion Airport is the main gateway to Israel and it is the busiest airport in the country located 20 kilometers southeast of Tel Aviv and 45 kilometers northwest of Jerusalem. The airport is ranked among the five best airports in the Middle East. It serves both domestic and international flights to and from numerous major cities around the world. There is two main passenger terminal at this airport. Terminal 1 serves domestic flights and international budget airlines such as EasyJet and Vueling, while Terminal 3 serves international flights.
Since the distance between one city to another is relatively short, getting around Israel is easy. The quickest and most convenient way is by domestic flights. The tickets are not very expensive and deals are often available online. Sometimes a one-way ticket can cost as little as 89 NIS (25 USD). Buses are also convenient but can be slow during traffic jams. Buses connecting Jerusalem, Tel Aviv, and Haifa depart very frequently. A one-way ticket from Tel Aviv to Jerusalem is around 25 NIS (7 USD). Israel's main bus company is the Egged Bus Company. Trains are also available and very comfortable. They are a lot faster than the bus but the cost can be higher.
Taxis are widely available and can be hailed directly from the streets. Although most taxis are metered, you can agree on a fixed rate and be aware that some drivers are known to overcharge tourists, so you should insist on using the meter and make sure that it is reset to the base fare after you get in. The base fare is normally around 12.30 NIS (3.5 USD). There is also a shared taxi van known as Sherut. It is a good option to travel between Tel Aviv and Jerusalem or Tel Aviv and Haifa.
Tourist Visas in Israel
All visitors must hold a passport valid for at least six months after the date of departure from Israel. Citizens of 99 countries including the European Union, Canada, Singapore, Russia, and the United States do not require a visa to enter the country for up to 3 months. Nationals not listed on the visa exemption agreement need to obtain a visa and should contact their nearest embassy of Israel. Citizens of 25 countries require a confirmation from the Israeli government before a tourist visa is issued.
Local Currency: The currency is the New Israeli Shekel (NIS) and 1 USD will get you 3.28 NIS.
Money & Payments: ATMs that accept international cards are widespread (mostly Visa and MasterCard), except at border crossings with Egypt and Jordan. Credit cards are widely accepted and tipping is common but normally not expected.
Local Language: The official language is Hebrew and Arabic has a special status under Israeli law as a semi-official language. Russian is spoken by around 20% of the population. Most of the population can speak English fairly well as it is required in schools and universities.
Local Culture and Religion: More than 70% of the population follows Judaism. There are small groups of Muslims, Christian, and Druze. Muslims are the largest minority group in the country.

READY PLAYER ONE author Ernie Cline and his DeLorean.
As we mentioned in this space yesterday, Ready Player One author Ernie Cline has decided to give away a 1981 DeLorean automobile, complete with a Flux Capacitor, as promotional stunt for the paperback release of his novel.
Since we posted the news, Cline also posted a video on his site featuring him explaining more details about the contest and why he decided to give away the rare car. One tidbit: Turns out it's not his original DeLorean that goes to the winner of the contest, but a second car he purchased just for this giveaway. Then he outfitted it with a Flux Capacitor.
I had a chance to ask Ernie a few questions about the contest, advice on how to win, as well as his life since publishing Ready Player One, the novel's reception thus far, and if there are any plans for a Hollywood adaptation.
Gilsdorf: First, some more on the contest. You're asking folks to read your book very carefully to find an Easter egg that will lead them to the first challenge. Are the Easter eggs in the hardcover and paperback different? Or the same?
Cline: They're the same, hidden in the text in the same locations.
Gilsdorf: The contest talks about "three increasingly difficult video game challenges." Where are folks completing these challenger? Are these games online? How are winners determined? Is it a high score kinda thing?
Cline: The Easter egg hidden in the book is a website address that leads to the first challenge, a new Atari 2600 game based on Ready Player One. The Atari game contains another hidden Easter egg – a QR code that takes you to the location of the Second Challenge. The Second Challenge (still top secret) won't go live until July 1st. The third challenge goes live on August 1st.
Gilsdorf: You're giving away a DeLorean. Wow. So it's not the one you've owned and have been driving all over the place. And it's fully working?
Cline: It's a new one. Fully functional and in great condition. You can see it in the Contest Announcement Video I posted.
Gilsdorf: Now that Ready Player One has been out for almost a year, looking back, what does it feel like to have published a novel? Is the experience different than being a screenwriter and seeing your words transformed onto the big screen?
Cline: Yes, very different. My first movie, Fanboys, was altered quite a bit during its production, and the end product turned out very different than I'd envisioned. But with my novel, the story is exactly as I intended. There was no filter between me and my audience. So the amazing reception the book has received has been very gratifying.
Gilsdorf: What kind of impact or response have you received? My book Fantasy Freaks and Gaming Geeks seemed to speak to a lot of 30- and 40-something nerds (or former nerds) who were nostalgic for their Reagan Era D&D days. Did your book strike any particular chord with readers?
Cline: Most definitely. A lot of readers tell me they feel like the book was "written just for them" or that I someone scanned their brains and crafted a story out of all of their favorite stuff. I'm always amazed to hear this, because I really wrote the book for myself. I've also been shocked by how many young readers enjoy the book – kids who weren't even alive during the 1980s. For them, the book works just as a straightforward action adventure story. They read [Ready Player One] with Wikipedia to learn more about the references, or ask their parents what "Duran Duran" is. It blows my mind.
Gilsdorf: Why did you choose to make Wade Watts an orphan? That seems like a powerful archetype in literature and movies, to have the protagonist be without parents. Think of Harry Potter, Luke Skywalker, etc.
Cline: I made Wade an orphan as an homage to one of my favorite children's books, James and the Giant Peach by Roald Dahl. James's parents die on the opening page of the book and he's sent off to live with his evil aunts (which is why Wade has to go live with his own aunt). I only steal from the best.
Gilsdorf: What is the status of the film adaptation of Ready Player One?
Cline: It's still in development at Warner Bros. No director has been attached yet. I'm doing my best to be patient about the movie, because I know how long it can take for movies like this to get made. The film adaptation of Ender's Game has been in the works for almost 25 years and is only being completed now. John Carter of Mars took 100 years to get made. I've got my fingers crossed that Ready Player One has a quicker path to the big screen than either of those books.
Gilsdorf: I also heard that you were working on a screenplay that's a geeky coming of age story. Where does that stand?
Cline: That story is actual going to be my second novel, which I'm also writing as a screenplay that I plan to direct as my first film. Both the novel and the script are partially complete, but they're on hold until I finish my paperback tour for Ready Player One.
Gilsdorf: Now that you've written a novel, can you talk a little about the differences between writing fiction vs. your first genre, screenplays? Harder/less hard? Which is more rewarding or enjoyable?
Cline: So far, writing a novel has been far more enjoyable and rewarding than screenwriting, for the reason I mention above.
Gilsdorf: Any changes or edits to the paperback? I had to make some changes in my book when some sharp readers spotted a couple factual errors. Ready Player One is full of hundreds of cultural references. Did you get any wrong?
Cline: Yes, a few. I somehow got Def Leppard's record label wrong and corrected that. They were on Mercury Records, not Epic.
Gilsdorf: Any memorable disagreements with fans about a fact or an opinion about one of the gems from the '80s you resurrect?
Cline: Not really. Some readers express joking disappointment if I failed to mention their favorite '80s movie/video game/song, but I don't mind. The book is less than 400 pages, so I was bound to leave out a few '80s pop culture icons. Sorry, Garbage Pail Kids fans.
Gilsdorf: Advice on how to win this contest?
Cline: Read Ready Player One and you'll know exactly what skills are required to win.
Gilsdorf: Back to the DeLorean. Does the time machine work?
Cline: It travels forward in time at exactly sixty seconds per minute.

In 2014, the Supervisory Board of DEUTZ AG continued its ongoing monitoring of the management of the business in accordance with the requirements of the German Stock Corporation Act (AktG) and the German Corporate Governance Code and provided advice to the Board of Management on key decisions. The Supervisory Board was directly involved in all material decisions taken by the Board of Management. In particular, the Board of Management coordinated closely with the Supervisory Board on the Company's corporate strategy.
Five meetings of the Supervisory Board took place in 2014. Only one member of the Supervisory Board was absent at each of the meetings on 13 March and 12 June, but apologies were sent, and the other meetings in 2014 were attended in person by all the Supervisory Board members.
The deliberations and discussions of the Supervisory Board in the year under review focused mainly on the current business position and risk situation of the DEUTZ Group as well as on the operational and strategic development of the business. Particular attention was paid to the existing joint ventures, especially those in China, with regular reports on their performance provided by the Board of Management. During the strategy discussion, the Supervisory Board discussed the details of an action plan for achieving the Company's medium and long-term growth targets (profitable growth) and the optimisation of all operational processes ('operational excellence').
Other key decisions concerned the 2015 budget, the medium-term planning up to 2019 and the approval of capital expenditure. As is the case every year, the Supervisory Board also adopted resolutions concerning the achievement of targets by the Board of Management – and consequently its variable remuneration for the previous year – as well as the setting of its targets for the current year. Besides defining the Board of Management's targets for the current financial year, it also set medium-term targets for the Board of Management.
There were no changes to the Board of Management of DEUTZ AG in 2014.
At its meeting on 11 December 2014, the Supervisory Board held an in-depth discussion of the German Corporate Governance Code as amended on 13 May 2013 and 24 June 2014 and, together with the Board of Management, issued a declaration of conformity pursuant to section 161 of the German Stock Corporation Act (AktG). This declaration includes just two variances from the Code and since 12 December 2014 it has been available in the Investor Relations/Corporate Governance section of the Company's website at www.deutz.com, where it can be downloaded.
The Supervisory Board has created four committees to enable it to perform its duties effectively. These committees prepare various topics and resolutions for the full Supervisory Board. Details of all members of the Supervisory Board and its committees, as well as other directorships held by its members, are shown separately in the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements on pages 118 and 119 of this annual report.
The work of the Audit Committee in the year under review focused on the assessment of the single-entity and consolidated financial statements for 2013 and the corresponding auditors' reports, the condensed consolidated financial statements for the six months to 30 June 2014 and their review by the auditors, the interim reports for the periods ended 31 March and 30 September 2014 and the discussion of the audit engagement for the year ended 31 December 2014. At the beginning of the reporting year, the Audit Committee again dealt with the invitation to tender for the audit of the consolidated annual financial statements and the review of the interim financial statements. Other important topics discussed by the Audit Committee included risk management, compliance, the internal control system, strategic planning, key performance indicators, the adjustment of the provision for warranties in the third quarter and the performance of the DEUTZ AG plants in Germany in terms of productivity and costs. The Audit Committee met six times in 2014, with the auditors in attendance on three occasions.
Following a further amendment to the relevant section of the rules of procedure for the Supervisory Board, the Nominations Committee once more consists of three (previously four) Supervisory Board members elected by the Annual General Meeting. It is tasked with proposing to the Supervisory Board suitable candidates as shareholder representatives on the Supervisory Board. The Nominations Committee met on four occasions in 2014 when it dealt with the search for potential successors for appointment to the Supervisory Board.
The single-entity annual financial statements of DEUTZ AG prepared by the Board of Management in accordance with the German Commercial Code (HGB), the consolidated annual financial statements prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) and the combined management report for DEUTZ AG and the DEUTZ Group (all for the 2014 financial year) were audited by PricewaterhouseCoopers Aktiengesellschaft Wirtschaftsprüfungsgesellschaft, Cologne, Germany, the auditors appointed by the Annual General Meeting on 7 May 2014. The auditors issued unqualified opinions.
The single-entity annual financial statements of DEUTZ AG, the consolidated annual financial statements, the combined management report, the Board of Management's proposal for the appropriation of profit and the auditors' reports were made available to all members of the Supervisory Board and were examined by the Supervisory Board. The auditors explained their audit findings in detail to the Audit Committee meeting held on 3 March 2015 and to the Supervisory Board meeting held on 12 March 2015 and answered any supplementary questions raised.
The Supervisory Board approved the findings of the auditors' reports on DEUTZ AG and the DEUTZ Group. The conclusive findings of the Supervisory Board's own audit have not led to any reservations about either the single-entity annual financial statements or the consolidated annual financial statements, and the Supervisory Board has therefore approved them. The annual financial statements have thus been adopted.
The Supervisory Board also approved the Board of Management's proposal to use the accumulated income reported for the 2014 financial year to pay a dividend of €0.07 per dividend-bearing share.
As already reported, there was only one new appointment in 2014 following the election of all twelve members of the Supervisory Board in 2013. On 7 January 2014, at the request of the Board of Management and as recommended by the Nominations Committee, the local court in Cologne appointed Mr Herbert Kauffmann to succeed Dr Lodovico Bussolati as a shareholder representative on the Supervisory Board of DEUTZ AG following Dr Bussolati's resignation from his seat at the end of 2013. The Annual General Meeting of DEUTZ AG held on 7 May 2014 confirmed the appointment of Mr Kauffmann and elected him to the Supervisory Board for the remaining term of appointment of the other members of the Supervisory Board, i.e. until the 2018 Annual General Meeting.
After the end of the reporting year, at the request of the Board of Management and as proposed by the General Works Council, the local court in Cologne appointed Mr Hans-Peter Finken as an employee representative on the Supervisory Board with effect from 1 February 2015. The appointment became necessary when Mr Egbert Zieher stepped down from his post with effect from 31 January 2015.
The Supervisory Board would like to thank Mr Zieher for his outstanding work and valuable contribution over the years.
The membership of the Supervisory Board committees changed as follows in the year under review: at its meeting on 11 December 2014, the Supervisory Board elected Mr Kauffmann to succeed Mr Michael Haupt as a member of the Audit Committee and its chairman. Mr Haupt had resigned from both positions with effect from the end of that meeting.
The current members of the Supervisory Board of DEUTZ AG are all considered independent within the meaning of item 5.4.2 sentence 2 of the German Corporate Governance Code.
The Supervisory Board has had to defer its target of at least two female members (see the Corporate Governance report of the 2013 annual report) in connection with the forthcoming appointment of a member to replace Ms Persson at the Annual General Meeting on 29 April 2015 because it had to give priority to experts in the areas of agricultural machinery, service and sales.
The Supervisory Board would like to express its thanks and appreciation to all employees of DEUTZ AG in Germany and abroad, to the elected workforce representatives and to the Board of Management for their valuable efforts and the considerable dedication they showed in 2014.
At the end of its meeting on 12 March 2015, the Supervisory Board apppointed Mr Hans-Georg Härter as new chairman after the previous chairman, Mr Lars-Göran Moberg, had stepped down from his post; accordingly Mr Härter also becomes chairman of the Arbitration Committee, the Human Resources Committee and the Nominations Committee. As Mr Härter was previously an ordinary member of the Human Resources Committee and the Nominations Committee, the Supervisory appointed Mr Moberg as his successor. At the same time, Mr Paust was appointed successor of Mr Zieher as a new member of the Arbitration Committee.

Q: How to initialise JVM with larger maximum heap size using rJava I am attempting to make use of the Stanford NLP tools (Java) in R, using the rJava package. When attempting to create a StanfordCoreNLP object I get the following error:

Error in .jnew("edu/stanford/nlp/pipeline/StanfordCoreNLP", props) : java.lang.OutOfMemoryError: Java heap space

To resolve this, I have attempted to initialise the JVM with a larger maximum heap size, using variations of the following code:
.jinit(parameters=c("-Xms1g","-Xmx4g"))

When the maximum heap is set to 1GB using -Xmx1g the JVM loads but I continue to get the OutOfMemoryError. When the maximum heap size is set to 2 or 3 GB (-Xmx2g or -Xmx3g), R will stop responding. When set to 4GB or higher -Xmx4g I will get the following message:

Error in .jinit(parameters = c("-Xms1g", "-Xmx4g"), force.init = TRUE) : Cannot create Java virtual machine (-6)

How do you successfully initialise the JVM using rJava to values larger than 1GB? I am using 32bit versions of Java (v8 u51) and R (v3.2.0)

A:
I am using 32bit versions of Java (v8 u51) and R (v3.2.0)

That's your problem right there. Switch to 64bit versions.

From the region
NORTHBRIDGE — Police are investigating a two-vehicle crash that sent two people to Worcester hospitals yesterday.
The crash happened about 5:15 p.m. on Main Street near the Route 146 overpass. A police dispatcher said the drivers from both vehicles were taken from the scene by ambulance. One went to the University of Massachusetts Medical Center — University Campus and the other was taken to St. Vincent Hospital.

Mulhall column: How some burning questions fizzle
Opinion | August 10, 2018
Mitch Mulhall
In the aftermath of the Lake Christine fire, a recent PI article questioned Colorado Parks and Wildlife's gun range management, not in a critical way, but, through its examination of funding for the Basalt Shooting Range, perhaps in a way that subtly raises the question of whether gun range management should even be something our state government does.
In that article, the PI quoted Democrat State Senator Kerry Donovan who said, "[The Division of Parks and Wildlife] do an incredible job managing an immense amount of land and property and assets to the state."
As an angler, I have rarely had CPW check my fishing license, but it's happened.
As a hunter, only in one of the last five muzzleloader seasons has CPW not stopped me to check elk tags, and though I've never even seen an elk while hunting, I'm sure if that ever changes CPW will no doubt be there to make sure I've followed the law.
As a resident, I've seen CPW professionally and humanely capture a sow and cubs who had grown too accustomed to foraging in our neighborhood. CPW brought in a trap, caught the three-some, and relocated them, but not before sharing precautions and giving out contact information to me and my neighbors.
In my experience, the men and women of CPW do a fine job of fulfilling their responsibilities, though my particular dealings with them illustrate but a fraction of all they do.
Senator Donovan also correctly noted CPW has faced both budget cuts and expanding responsibilities. She mentioned dwindling federal support.
But there's also this: In 2012, Governor Hickenlooper consolidated the Division of Wildlife with the Division of Parks and Outdoor Recreation, both of which operate under Colorado's Department of Natural Resources.
The governor argued the merger was a natural fit that would save $3 million to $4 million annually. Hickenlooper's was a largely economic, fiducially responsible argument.
Job loss was a concern, but the governor insisted it wouldn't be a problem, that baby boomer retirements and normal attrition would in time trim a combined work force of about 900 employees by about 25 state jobs.
Historically, the Division of Parks and Outdoor Recreation has been about a third the size of its Wildlife counterpart, both in terms of work force size and budget.
One of the effects of consolidation may have been to infuse parks and recreation concerns with more reliable funding. Most of us saw this in the Hug-A-Hunter and Hug-An-Angler ad campaigns that ran in 2016. Proceeds from hunting and fishing license sales account for about 62 percent of CPW funding, according to a document on cpw.state.co.us.
Consolidation was not without precedent. Colorado combined these divisions once before back in 1963.
The rationale for the '63 consolidation is hard to pin down, but according to Colorado Encyclopedia, what was then the Colorado Parks and Recreation Department was perpetually underfunded. Perhaps legislators thought consolidation might help remedy this. Whatever the reason, the '63 consolidation lasted only nine years. In 1972, Colorado separated the two, and they remained separate for the next 40 years.
If there were a basis for questioning CPW's gun range management, perhaps it involves changes in the Division's focus since the 2012 consolidation. One effect of consolidation may have been re-examining resource management in light of public interest, though that's pure speculation on my part.
The CPW's mission statement says, "[The CPW exists] To perpetuate the wildlife resources of the state, provide a quality state parks system, and provide enjoyable and sustainable outdoor recreation opportunities that educate and inspire current and future generations to serve as active stewards of Colorado's natural resources."
It's fair to say that like hunter education before it, gun range management may not fit in to that mission the way river trail maintenance or new boat ramp construction does. In that sense, perhaps the Basalt Shooting Range no longer warrants the CPW focus it once enjoyed, but, again, the sources I read yielded nothing to support this thesis. Neither did they reveal anything to refute it.
The truth is, regardless of whether CPW's management of the Basalt Shooting Range may have changed since 2012, CPW is no more culpable for individual conduct than any law enforcement agency.
Neither the range nor CPW's management of it factored in the decision chamber a tracer round and fire.
So far, at least, it's refreshing that nothing I've read or heard about the Lake Christine wildfire's causes or contributing factors points a finger at the gun.

Q: Hive on Tez doesn't work in Spark 2 when working with HDP 2.5 with spark 1.6.2 we used Hive with Tez as its execution engine and it worked.
But when we moved to HDP 2.6 with spark 2.1.0, Hive didn't work with Tez as its execution engine, and the following exception was thrown when the DataFrame.saveAsTable API was called:
java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: org/apache/tez/dag/api/SessionNotRunning
at org.apache.hadoop.hive.ql.session.SessionState.start(SessionState.java:529)
at org.apache.spark.sql.hive.client.HiveClientImpl.<init> HiveClientImpl.scala:188)
after looking at the answer to this question, we switched hive execution engine to MR (MapReduce) instead of Tez and it worked.
However, we'd like to work with Hive on Tez. what's required to solve the above exception in order for Hive on Tez to work?

A: I had the same issue when the spark job was running in YARN CLUSTER mode and that was resolved when correct hive-site.xml was added to ( add to spark-default configuration) " spark.yarn.dist.files "
Basically there are two different hive-site.xml files,
one is for hive configuration :  /usr/hdp/current/hive-client/conf/hive-site.xml
The other one is lighter version for spark  ( had the details only for spark to work with hive) : /etc/spark//0/hive-site.xml ( please check the path once for your setup)
we need to use the second file for spark.yarn.dist.files.

01.25.2010 - "... spammers seem ready to pounce on the press attention towards the recent out-of-band release of MS10-002 to scare users into downloading fake updates via email. We have been seeing messages pushing a Microsoft update via a link... The URL in the spam messages leads to a file called "update2010.scr" which currently has low detection rates*... The site hosting these fake updates is located in the Netherlands, and we have also seen that it's hosting the same file, under a different extension, called "update2010.exe". The icon of the file, once downloaded, is also believable... Remember that Microsoft won't ever send messages for Windows updates, so please don't download and run this file. This probably won't be the only lure of this kind, so be diligent and remember not to click on links from unsolicited emails..."

... Microsoft does not send unsolicited communications about security updates
Microsoft sends e-mail messages to subscribers of our security communications when we release information about a security software update or security incident. Unfortunately, cyber criminals can and have sent -fake- security communications that appear to be from Microsoft. Some of these messages lure recipients to Web sites to download spyware or other unwanted software. Others include a file attachment that contains a virus.
How to help verify the legitimacy of a security-related e-mail
• Legitimate notifications do -not- include software updates as attachments. We -never- attach software updates to our security communications. Rather, we refer customers to our Web site for complete information about the software update or security incident.
• Legitimate notifications are also on Microsoft.com. We never send notices about security updates or incidents until after we publish information about them on our Web site. Check the Microsoft Security Updates page* to see whether the information is listed there.

The following centers and programs conduct research closely related to MMG's research and teaching topics.
The Vermont Center for Immunobiology and Infectious Diseases (VCIID) was created in 2006 with a five-year $11.4 million Phase I Center for Biological Research Excellence (COBRE) grant from the National Institutes of Health and National Institute of General Medical Sciences. VCIID combines the expertise of the UVM groups in Immunobiology, Microbiology, Infectious Diseases, and the Vaccine Testing Center to promote collaborative studies into the immune response to infectious agents, including viruses, bacteria and parasites, as well as studies of microbial pathogenesis and autoimmune disorders. Visit the VCIID website.
The University of Vermont Cancer Center is Vermont's only not-for-profit comprehensive clinical and research cancer center. Founded in 1974, the organization is located within the University of Vermont (UVM) College of Medicine and enjoys a clinical partnership with The University of Vermont Medical Center.
The Vermont Lung Center (VLC), a Program on Lung Biology and Disease, has been in existence at the Robert Larner, M.D. College of Medicine at the University of Vermont since 1972. It has had a rich and productive past that has had a significant impact nationally. The current program centers around a COBRE award from the National Institute of General Medical Sciences (NIGMS) of the NIH. The keystone to the VLC program is translational research. The goals of the VLC are to investigate the mechanisms of lung biology and disease, and to train and retain outstanding translational scientists at UVM. Learn more about the Vermont Lung Center.
Faculty researchers at the Vaccine Testing Center (VTC) of the University of Vermont and the Robert Larner, M.D. College of Medicine, study human vaccines with the goal of understanding and preventing infectious diseases around the globe. Our team is particularly interested in new vaccines with the potential to prevent or control infectious diseases in developing countries. We are a diverse team of clinicians, study coordinators, scientists, and laboratory personnel. Volunteers are critical to our work and our human research studies are designed and performed with rigorous oversight and safety. Visit the Vaccine Testing Center website.


Widespread failure to comply with the Safe Drinking Water Act is a symptom of increasing problems with drinking water quality in the United States. Drinking water plants are old and out of date, and water supplies are increasingly at risk from chemical and biological contamination. Rhode Island is not immune from these problems; many cities and towns -- both large and small -- experienced violations or exceedances of EPA standards in the last year. These included violations of Maximum Contaminant Levels, (EPA's enforceable standards for chemical and biological contaminants), exceedances of the Lead Action Level, and violations of the Surface Water Treatment Rule (which requires water systems to adequately filter and disinfect water to prevent disease outbreaks).
The compliance data, which is supplied to EPA by state authorities, indicate that Zambarano Memorial Hospital (Pascoag), North Kingstown, and Hemlock Estates (Gloucester) were the three water systems with the most violations or exceedances of drinking water standards in 1993 and 1994. Among large water systems (those serving more than 10,000 people) in Rhode Island, North Kingstown, Woonsocket, and Bristol County Water Authority had the most reported violations or exceedances of drinking water standards in 1993 and 1994, according to EPA data.
The most common contaminant of state water supplies was Coliform. Rhode Island utilities such as Bristol County Water Authority (Warren) and Wakefield Water Company were affected by exceedances of the Lead Action Level, meaning that health threatening levels of lead were present in the water in many homes. Residents served by the United States Navy-Newport water system drank water that contained chemicals or radioactivity above health-based standards, and water systems like Woonsocket and Bristol County Water Authority (Warren) were affected by violations of microbial contaminant standards such as Total Coliform.


Who is really free from loneliness?
The morning we graduated college, Marina Keegan declared her yearning for "the opposite of loneliness" in the commencement issue of the Yale Daily News. "We don't have a word for the opposite of loneliness," she observed. "But if we did, I could say that's what I want in life." In the wake of her sudden death in a car accident days later, the piece spread to millions across the country and has prompted Simon and Schuster to publish a collection of her essays and stories earlier this month titled, fittingly, The Opposite of Loneliness.
I remember my first thought reading the column. Lovely phrase, Marina. But is there really no word for the "opposite of loneliness"? Yet she was a more masterful writer than I, and I do not believe that she would have subverted the English language for the cheap thrill of a frivolous phrase. The question slipped my mind when we said our last goodbyes, and it nags me no less as we approach the second anniversary of her death.
Marina gives us some guidance by describing not what the opposite of loneliness is, but rather what it is not. "It's not quite love and it's not quite community," she explains. "It's just this feeling that there are people, an abundance of people, who are in this together. Who are on your team. When the check is paid and you stay at the table. When it's 4 a.m. and no one goes to bed." The opposite of loneliness, she says, is not so fickle as a feeling, nor is it so static as a grouping, an arbitrary assembling of individuals. The opposite of loneliness is active, teleological even: committed to goals, longing in action.
For Pericles, the source of happiness is freedom. By Marina's measure, conversely, the font of misery is loneliness, and with typically uncommon honesty she admits, "This scares me. More than finding the right job or city or spouse—I'm scared of losing this web we're in. This elusive, indefinable, opposite of loneliness. This feeling I feel right now." The scope of Marina's worries in this line is quite limited, defensive rather than offensive, and unconcerned about future gain. Her fear is focused on the preservation of those institutions, traditions and goals in which she feels herself embedded.
And what is loneliness, then? At its core, is it not simply a perversion of freedom? Is loneliness any more than an emancipation so extreme and complete as to transcend all pretense of society—individualism unhinged? If so, this definition goes a long way in explaining the bewilderment of modern sociologists as to the source of the growing loneliness among Marina's classmates and comrades, steeped in a culture that axiomatically exalts the individual and the atomic.
Marina draws a distinction, as does Pericles, between loneliness and being alone. She describes arriving to look for her friends, mistakenly, at an iconic, empty administrative building. She recalls, "I looked up. At this giant room I was in. At this place where thousands of people had sat before me. And alone, at night, in the middle of a New Haven storm, I felt so remarkably, unbelievably safe." In Yale's empty, neo-gothic castles, she feels the presence of her forbears, whose company she shares by the mere fact of her citizenship within a storied tradition.
The lines struck a chord, not merely for the tragic irony of their exuberance, but also for what she and many of her readers viewed as their contemporaries' frequent, cowardly march from college into uninspired, all-too-trodden career paths.
The paragraph echoes Marina's own political activism. Lest readers forget, "The Opposite of Loneliness" was not the first time her writing achieved national notoriety. Months earlier, Marina had written a stinging invective against the increasing and outsized number of college seniors heading into finance and consulting for the New York Times. The piece and the paragraph above confront a popular anxiety than extends beyond the Ivy League: a generation that grew up with grade inflation, participation trophies, and awards for effort is for the first time facing the prospect of failure, and this blow to its collective ego has led it from imagination and passion into apathy and cowardice.


Suraj Loves Imli! Udaan Sapnon Ki 23rd August 2016 Written Updates :- The latest crux of the TV series Udaan is about to showcase how Suraj will confess his love for Imli before Chakor as he will just go frustrated seeing the increasing love for Vivaan in Imli's heart and he will be thought to take over that place!
Now the TV series Udaan is all set to welcome love triangle topic as ever since the marriage and pregnancy drama happened, the TRPs Ratings of the show have gone higher. It is amongst the top 10 shows of the country.
In the coming episodes of the TV series Udaan, it will be a showcase that Chakor (Meera Deosthale) will be wary of Ragini (Vaishnavi Shukla) thinking that she is not the actual sister of Vivaan and Suraj. Chakor also catches Ragini on the Suraj's room and she is looking forward to a file.
When Chakor will share this to Suraj, Suraj will not believe her and he will also ask her to do not intervenes in his family affairs, but then Chakor will be showing a paper to Suraj which is enough to proof that she is not the real sister of Vivaan and Suraj.
Suraj will believe on Chakor that Ragini is not his sister but Vivaan will be refused to belive so. Suraj also starts doubting Ragini after Chakor's expose. In the mean time, Chakor loses a paper which may be can prove that Ragini is a thief.
On the other hand, Suraj will be upset seeing the growing proximity between Imli (Vidhi Pandya) and Vivaan (Paras Arora) and Vivaan constantly pampering her. She will feel loved by him. There will be a scene where he will tell her to leave her hair open which will be breaking Suraj's heart.
Imli will be heartened to see his concern for her and the baby so now Imli decided to dedicate herself completely to Vivaan. Suraj will be very sad seeing Imli's love for Vivaan and he will be then broken down in tears.
Then Suraj will confess his love for Imli in front of Chakor, Chakor will also feel that Suraj truly loves Imli from the bottom of his heart. She will be frustrated as the distance between Vivaan and she has grown now because of Suraj's false drama.
Tonight on rain Suraj will cry and will say I love Imli by screaming which will be leaving Chakor stunned. Stay tuned for more updates on the TV series Udaan.

Congregation B'er Chayim
Visit WebsiteSLSHOME@aol.com 301-722-5688
Founded in 1853, B'er Chayim began as an Orthodox congregation but soon tended towards a more Reform type of Service. The Congregation joined the Union of American Hebrew Congregations (UAHC) in 1905 and adopted the Union Prayer Book in 1907. A small group split off in 1925, creating Beth El Congregation. The two congregations rejoined in 1934.
Over the ensuing years there were merger discussions with Beth Jacob, the Conservative synagogue in Cumberland. Merger was achieved in 1998 at which time the Torahs, memorial tablets and other Jewish objects were transferred to B'er Chayim. The combined congregation has prospered and maintained an average membership of 75-80 family units.
Through their services, B'er Chayim strives to meet the needs of both their Reform and Conservative members. Friday evening services begin each week at 7:30 pm. There are monthly Saturday morning services on the second Saturday at 10 am. On the fourth Saturday of each month there is a children's service at 10 am followed by Torah study at 11 am.
The prayer book is the CCAR "Gates of Prayer". An Oneg follows weekly Friday evening Shabbat services, sponsored on a voluntary basis by members of the congregation.
Rosh Hashanah is celebrated on the first night and both mornings of the holiday. The Kol Nidre and Yom Kippur Day services are attended by both reform and conservative members. There are two separate endings to Yom Kippur afternoon services, one at aprox. 5 pm followed by a break-fast; and one at sunset. The prayer book for High Holidays is "The Gates of Repentance". The Silverman Mahzor is used for the second day of Rosh Hashanah and the latter afternoon and closing services of Yom Kippur.
There are special Shabbat services such as the Hadassah Shabbat at which Hadassah members conduct the service. We also celebrate other Jewish holidays including Sukkot, Simchat Torah, Hanukkah, Purim, Passover, Shavuot and Tu B'Shevat. A community Seder is held on the second night of Passover.
The Temple building was constructed in 1864 (at a cost of $7,427.02!).
In 1899 the Congregation purchased a lot adjoining the rear of the Temple and erected a building for use as a parsonage – and that was its use for many years. Later uses of this building included offices and a clubhouse for members. By the mid 1930's the building was used by the Sunday School which is its use today.
In 1975, B'er Chayim Temple was listed on the National Register for Historic Places, and today is recognized as the longest continuously operating Temple building in the State of Maryland.

Can a DUI be Dismissed?
A DUI can be dismissed – but we must put in some work first.
Many clients have this image of the defense lawyer rolling into court and speaking with the prosecutor in the backroom. They believe all the defense lawyer must do is explain to the prosecutor why the evidence against the client isn't strong, and the case is dismissed.
The reality is the prosecutor will not simply dismiss the case because the defense explains why the case should be dismissed (unless the prosecutor is really cool). DUI laws are tougher than ever. And with that comes pressure on the prosecutor to bring these cases.
Also, the reality is the prosecutor likely doesn't care whether the case isn't strong. A lot of these cases have problems, and the prosecutor knows that. The prosecutor also knows that most defense attorneys will do nothing to actually fight the case. The prosecutor has no incentive to dismiss the case when defense attorneys aren't fighting cases.
Unless you fight the case, the prosecutor can never lose. It's that simple. Therefore, you must be willing to fight the case.
It starts with preparation. Defense attorneys must examine every piece of evidence. We must question every assumption made by the prosecution. There must be time spent simply brainstorming, thinking about, and researching various issues and evidence in the case. Once this is done the defense attorney will have an idea of what are the weak points of the case.
We can attack the weak points of the case by filing motions. A motion is where we go in front of the judge before trial to request something of the judge. We might request the judge hold that a piece of evidence is so unreliable that is cannot be put in front of the jury. Or we argue that a piece of evidence was obtained unconstitutionally and must be suppressed. Either way, we are usually asking the judge to throw out a piece of evidence.
Getting evidence eliminated weakens the prosecution's case. Prosecutors will be more hesitant to go forward with a case that is actually weakened – and not just told that it is weak. This only happens when the defense attorney is proactive in preparation and in litigating the case. It only happens through work on our part.
Some issues in DUI cases are better left for trial instead of a motion. The reason is beyond the scope of this article . Nevertheless, pushing a case toward trial is a strong way of fighting the case. You're doing more than simply telling the prosecutor why the case should be dismissed, you are literally trying to beat the case.
By pushing a case toward trial you have changed the dynamic of the litigation into one in which you can now win the entire case. Once this happens everything is on the table. When you fight the case so strongly all of a sudden plea deals get better and the possibility of a dismissal occurs. Witnesses may be unavailable, evidence cannot be located, and the prosecutor has a better understanding of the weaknesses in their case.
What Happens if I'm Convicted of a DUI?
