We love getting to encourage pastors, lay leaders and the men in the church. Kent was asked to lead a retreat at Linworth Baptist Church in Ohio. Great turnout for Kent to teach what he loves—mentoring! Kent taught from his passion of "Wise Guys" —both how to surround yourself with godly counsel AND how to be a godly mentor.
Kent's message is something every man needs to hear. God wants us to be the men he designed us to be but we can't achieve this on our own. He has given us the resource of other men to come into our lives to encourage, challenge and equip. Kent gives practical examples and steps to take to make these relationships become a reality.
We're grateful for this opportunity to help pastors like Brent and Steve serve the guys in their church. Special thanks to Senior Pastor Brent Miller and Associate & Family Pastor Steve Smith for having us!
This super special event is upon us! That happened quick right? Are y'all ready to dance? Apparently you are! Spots filled quickly! We are booked—max capacity at 400+! Stay tuned for the recap of this special evening. We can't wait to share!
We're blessed to have sponsors like Scheller's Fitness & Cycling and Covenant Construction.
If you live in the area—or know someone who does—register for this upcoming event at Lake Aurora Christian Camp & Retreat Center.
There are so many pressures bringing men to their boiling point but God has provided resources to guide and direct this volatile emotion to a place that honors Him. Uncover the expectations (some valid, some not, some downright unfair) that lead to frustration and anger. Kent will dig into James 4 and teach guys how to tame this charged emotion.
Oh yeah, it's happening. With two years under our belts, this event just gets bigger and better! We're pumped to bring this special father-son retreat back for 2019.
Pick from three options for how you'll sleep!
Thank you for following our ministry updates. Remember, because of readers like you, we're able to serve dads in all of the above ways you see in this post. Now that you see all the ways we serve dads, from free stuff, Bible studies, events and partnerships, maybe you noticed a way you can help us help dads. If you don't already, consider going here and giving today. Thank you.

Should LA spend $37 million on a firefighting plane?
Canadair Super Scooper releasing its payload of water in a demonstration at the Van Nuys Airport 9-4-2012. It can also drop fire-retardant foam.
Arguing that Southern California's fire season is now a yearlong affair, L.A. County Supervisor Mike Antonovich wants a fire-fighting airplane known as the "Super Scooper" to be available year-round.
The Canadian-designed amphibious aircraft can scoop up 1,600 gallons of water in 12 seconds from a body of water, which is dumped over large-scale wildfires. The plane doesn't need to land to re-fill itself. Currently, the county leases two Super Scoopers in the months of September-November each year.
Antonovich has asked the Board of Supervisors to consider either leasing one year-round or buying one outright. Firefighters are currently battling the 37,000-acre Sand Fire in his district without a Super Scooper.
"Fire seasons were different in the 90s and early 2000s," said Antonovich. "Today, the fire season is basically 52 weeks out of the year."
L.A. County Fire Chief Daryl L. Osby told the board that five years of drought and off-season fires have lead his department to expand its number of aircraft.
"Based on the response last Friday [to the Sand Fire], we felt we had the appropriate response," he said. "The fact of the matter is a Super Scooper is an additional tool we can put into our fires."
The price tag for a Super Scooper is $37 million, according to a spokesman from Antonovich's office. In the past, the county has paid $5.5 million to lease two Super Scoopers for the autumn months. The county also pays $1,100 per hour to operate the aircraft.
"Do we buy? Do we lease? Do we get partners?" Antonovich asked. "That's a decision we have to make."
The board will decide after the L.A. County Fire Department completes a comprehensive assessment of its aircraft. Chief Osby said he expects to return to the board sometime next month with a completed report.
Why aren't Super Scoopers fighting the Blue Cut Fire?

AI-powered insurance specialist Tractable secures $60m in Series D fundingAI-powered insurance specialist Tractable secures $60m in Series D funding
Sets sights on home insurance as well as buying and selling used cars
Ben Wodecki
London-based AI startup Tractable has closed a $60 million Series D funding round, led by Insight Partners and Georgian.
The round more than doubles its total capital raised from $55 million to $115 Million – with the valuation skyrocketing to around $1 billion. The latest round makes Tractable the world's first computer vision 'unicorn' for financial services, the company claimed.
"We cracked how to assess cars, helping over a million people recover from accidents, and helping recycle cars that couldn't be repaired," Alex Dalyac, founder and CEO at Tractable, said.
Dalyac pointed to his company's new focus – "next up for us is homes," he said, with Tractable already working with a Japanese insurer on claims of damages caused by typhoons.
From developing AI software to… buying and selling used cars
Founded in 2015, Tractable provides computer vision software that analyzes photos of damaged vehicles for insurance firms. The system is claimed to be capable of making sense of the damage as a human would.
The company said it will use the newly secured funds to finance an expansion into used car sales, as well as natural disaster recovery.
The cash will also support its attempts to find new ways of using AI to assess the condition of cars – with LKQ, an automotive parts firm, already using Tractable's systems to optimize the recycling of end-of-life vehicles in North America.
The London-based firm said it has recorded a 600 percent revenue growth in the past 24 months due to partnerships with major insurers from the US, UK, and Spain, including Geico, Tokio Marine Nichido, and Admiral Seguros.
In April, the firm secured Covéa, France's largest insurance group, as a customer – with the company using computer vision software to analyze damage to claimant's cars.
The pair had been working together since 2016 and set up the ExcellIA partnership, which includes a service platform called Darva.
Ben Wodecki is the assistant editor for AI Business, covering a wide range of AI content. Ben joined the team in March 2021, and has previously written for IoT World Today, IP Magazine, and The Telegraph India, among others.

Green released; Watson signed
The Steelers let go of another veteran when they released tight end Ladarius Green, with the designation failed physical. Earlier in the day the team released veteran long snapper Greg Warren.
Green signed with the Steelers as an unrestricted free agent last offseason.
Green played in six games in 2016, starting two of them. He had 18 receptions for 304 yards and a touchdown. His best game with the Steelers was against the Giants in Week 13, when he had six receptions for 110 yards and a touchdown.
In his five NFL seasons, the first four with the San Diego Chargers, Green has 95 receptions for 1,391 yards and 60 touchdowns.
The Steelers also signed running back Terrell Watson, who spent his rookie season on the Cincinnati Bengals practice squad, after signed as an undrafted free agent. He spent part of the 2016 season on the Cleveland Browns, Denver Broncos and Philadelphia Eagles practice squads. He was placed on the Eagles' 53-man roster for the final week of the 2016 regular season.

Whether you're planning a staycation or a trip around the region, there are lots of new options in Asia for your weekend break, Chinese New Year or Easter vacation. We've rounded up the very best new offerings that opened their doors in 2017, plus a few to look forward to this year.
Housed in a former 1960s government building in the Central district, Foster + Partners have completely redesigned and rebuilt the entrance and interiors to create a beautifully modern hotel. Part of the Marco Polo and Niccolo Hotels group, The Murray features 336 rooms and suites and five restaurants and bars, including a rooftop location on the 25th floor.
Malaysia's first Ritz Carlton resort opened in September 2017. Housed on one of the 99 islands that make up the archipelago of Langkawi, the five-star resort offers 90 rooms and suites plus 29 villas, which have private pools. It also features an 'over-water spa', three swimming pools, a range of dining options and activities for kids and adults.
Taking the top two-thirds of the Central Embassy building in the upmarket area of Phleon Chit in Bangkok, the Park Hyatt opened in May 2017. With a distinctive art focus to its interior, it houses installations by Japanese artist Hirotoshi Sawada, including a 'Pagoda Mirage' in the ballroom and a Naga water dragon between the pool and waterfall. It features 222 rooms, including 32 suites, a penthouse bar and grill, spa and saltwater pool on the terrace.
Bulgari Hotel's first property in China is conveniently placed within the east section of the third ring road in Beijing, within close proximity to the main business district and the popular Sanlitun shopping, restaurant and bar area. The hotel, which describes itself as an urban resort, features riverside gardens, 119 rooms and suites, a 25-metre pool, Bulgari spa, a restaurant and a ballroom.
This brand-new luxury tented resort is inspired by the early European settlers of the 1800s. Immersed in the rainforests and paddy fields of Central Bali, the resort features just 22 'tents', each with private plunge pools and decks, four-poster beds and dark wood furniture. There are also two restaurants on site, a library and a spa. This is our type of camping!
With a secluded beachfront spot in Emerald Bay, Rosewood Phuket is the latest addition to Thailand's largest island. Opened in November 2017, the luxury resort offers 71 pool pavilions and villas, each with its own infinity-edged pool. It also has three restaurants, a water-side bar, a holistic wellness centre, function rooms and can host destination weddings.
Due to open in February 2018, this luxury resort from Como is situated on Bali's south coast, Canggu's popular surfing spot Echo Beach. It features its own luxury take on a surf shack, the Como Beach Club restaurant, with live music and DJ sets. There will be 52 rooms and suites, as well as 55 one- and two-bedroom residences, and 12 three-bedroom penthouses, complete with rooftop pools. There's also a juice bar and Como Shambhala wellness retreat.
The fourth Aman property to open in China, this is a jaw-dropping resort. Though officially opening in January 2018, it has been taking guests for a few months. The resort is made up of former Ming and Qing dynasty houses and a camphor forest that have been relocated from an area of Jiangxi, where they were due to be destroyed. The buildings have been carefully restored and fitted out with wooden interiors in a typically clean and stylish Aman way. Located on the outskirts of Shanghai, it also features a private garden and swimming pool, six dining venues and a spa.
This huge monolithic structure is the latest addition to the City of Dreams resort and is due to open later in 2018. Designed by the late Dame Zaha Hadid, the building is actually two towers connected at the podium and roof levels. As well as a generous 780 rooms, suites and villas, The Morpheus features an infinity pool on the 40th floor, a range of food and beverage outlets and high-speed panoramic lifts.
Located across from Ninoy Aquino International Airport, the new Sheraton Manila Hotel is due to open in June 2018. The property will have 350 rooms and suites as well as two restaurants, a lobby lounge, fitness centre, pool and spa. Part of the Resorts World Manila complex, it is close to a range of shopping and dining options and a short drive from the CBD.

Q: klish - dynamic variables and completion I am writing an xml file in klish. I want to know how can we auto complete an parameter by pressing tab button in klish xml files. For E.g. I want user to enter either enable or disable on klish command line but if user press 'e' and  tab then automatically enable should be completed or if user presses 'd' and tab then automatically disable should come.
I am receiving these parameter on klish command line by user.
And also can we define macros in klish xml files so that i can use that macro in klish ACTION tag to pass that macro value as a parameter to my c file
My XML code is like this :-
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<CLISH_MODULE xmlns="http://clish.sourceforge.net/XMLSchema"
 xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"
 xsi:schemaLocation="http://clish.sourceforge.net/XMLSchema
  http://clish.sourceforge.net/XMLSchema/clish.xsd">
    <!--=======================================================-->
        <COMMAND name="show"
        help="some utility commands for show"/>

    <COMMAND name="show connection"
    help="Show the connection">
        <DETAIL>
           connection status
        </DETAIL>
    <ACTION>c_file.c 1</ACTION>
    </COMMAND>
<COMMAND name="show debugcount"
     help="It will show enable core">
     <DETAIL>
    Enable core.
      </DETAIL>
     <PARAM name="module-name"
      help="Specify the module name i.e. enable or disable"
      ptype="STRING"/>
     <ACTION>c_file.c 3 ${module-name}</ACTION>
</COMMAND>

As I mentioned that I want auto complete of a statement so the parametere i.e.
${modulename}

will be either enable or disable so I want if user press e and tab then automatically enable should come or if user press d and tab then automatically disable should be come.
And about macros as you can see in  tag I am passing value i.e.
<ACTION>c_file.c 1</ACTION>

to my c file but instead of value I want to use some variable name or macro so it would be something like
<ACTION>c_file ${var} ${modulename}</ACTION>

where $var=1

A: After lot of research finally I successfully implemented auto completion of command.
Like in my example I want user to enter enable or disable in command line. This can be achieved by the following xml file. Just we had to use VAR tag in xml file and same for macros.
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<CLISH_MODULE xmlns="http://clish.sourceforge.net/XMLSchema"
xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"
xsi:schemaLocation="http://clish.sourceforge.net/XMLSchema
http://clish.sourceforge.net/XMLSchema/clish.xsd">
<!--=======================================================-->

<COMMAND name="show"
         help="some utility commands for show"/>

<COMMAND name="show connection"
         help="Show the connection">
<DETAIL>
     connection status
</DETAIL>
<ACTION>c_file.c 1</ACTION>
</COMMAND>
<COMMAND name="show debugcount"
 help="It will show enable core">
<DETAIL>
Enable core.
</DETAIL>
<PARAM name="module-name"
       help="Specify the module name i.e. enable or disable"
       ptype="STRING"
       completion="${third_par}"/>

 <ACTION>c_file.c 3 ${module-name}</ACTION>

<VAR name="third_par" help="enable/disable" value="enable disable"/>
 </COMMAND>

A: About completion. There are several ways to implement it.
The first way is something like this:
<PARAM name="module-name"
   help="Specify the module name i.e. enable or disable"
   ptype="STRING"
   completion="enable disable"/>

It's simple but not strict i.e. user can type something else than "enable/disable".
The second way is PTYPE with method="select":
<PTYPE name="BOOL" method="select" pattern="true(1) false(0)" help="Boolean choice"/>

This way is strict. Autocompletion will show "true/false" but user will get corresponding PARAM with values "1/0" in ACTION. But you can use pattern="true(true) false(false)" to get "true" or "false" in ACTION.
The third way is switch:
<PARAM name="choose" help="switch example" mode="switch" ptype="SWITCH">
    <PARAM name="enable" help="Enable" ptype="SUBCOMMAND" mode="subcommand"/>
    <PARAM name="disable" help="Disable" ptype="SUBCOMMAND" mode="subcommand"/>
</PARAM>

It's strict. The user must choose (enter) only one of PARAMs inside "switch" PARAM.
About VARs... The VARs in klish is global. So it can appear without COMMAND tag or VIEW tag. Put it on the same level as "VIEW" tag.

A: I am not sure if the above XML is well-formed. It seems that in the current clish.xsd schema the <VAR> element is no longer valid to be under the <COMMAND> element. In fact, the <VAR> element has no valid place at all.
To verify: xmllint -schema /path/to/latest/clish.xsd --noout /path/to/your/file.xml
You will notice that the presence of the <VAR> will invalidate the XML against the schema.
Below is the <COMMAND> element schema:
  <xs:complexType name="command_t">
    <xs:sequence>
        <xs:element ref="DETAIL" minOccurs="0"/>
        <xs:element ref="PARAM" minOccurs="0" maxOccurs="unbounded"/>
        <xs:element ref="CONFIG" minOccurs="0"/>
        <xs:element ref="ACTION" minOccurs="0"/>
    </xs:sequence>
    <xs:attributeGroup ref="menu_item_g"/>
    <xs:attribute name="ref" type="xs:string" use="optional"/>
    <xs:attribute name="view" type="xs:string" use="optional"/>
    <xs:attribute name="viewid" type="xs:string" use="optional"/>
    <xs:attribute name="access" type="xs:string" use="optional"/>
    <xs:attribute name="args" type="xs:string" use="optional"/>
    <xs:attribute name="args_help" type="xs:string" use="optional"/>
    <xs:attribute name="escape_chars" type="xs:string"
use="optional"/>
    <xs:attribute name="lock" type="bool_t" use="optional"
default="true"/>
    <xs:attribute name="interrupt" type="bool_t" use="optional"
default="false"/>
</xs:complexType>

Basically, specifying that inside COMMAND should be in order the following:

*

*DETAIL

*PARAM

*CONFIG

*ACTION

So if you place DETAIL after PARAM, it is invalid against the schema. I am referring to the following clish.xsd schema version in klish git repo:

Quangodelic set to play The Kino
After years of laying down the funk, the whole funk, and nothing but the funk around Cork City, the multiple-headed beast that is Quangodelic is finally ready to give up their debut album and turn it loose on an unsuspecting population. Mike McGrath-Bryan talks with bassist and bandleader Pat Allott.
Quangodelic play The Kino on Washington Street on Friday, February 22.
Mike McGrath Bryan
YOUR writer can hear the eyeballs rolling in the backs of people's heads as he types, but there's always been something a little of Captain Beefheart and his Magic Band surrounding Corkonian funkers Quangodelic.
If not musically, then certainly in terms of structure, a rotating door of some of Cork's finest musicians coming in and out as they please, resulting some nights in tight, funky performances, and others in controlled, collaborative chaos.
It's all part of the charm for a band that's been slugging away for years in Cork city on a fairly solitary path, alternating between tutting, smirking social commentaries and livewire takes on funk and soul classics with a Blaxploitation vibe.
A bit mad for a collective that revolves around adopted Corkman Pat Allott, who reclines in a seat upstairs in the Sin É on Coburg Street, before the evening rush, and regales with the story of how the band's aesthetic and original material came together from a regular residency at the Roundy, on Castle Street.
"It was always live, but I was a big fan of the Munster Soul nights, there were some really good DJ nights in Cork, so when we started doing it, I was thinking, 'y'know, we might attract more people if they think it's a DJ thing'. So, we'd do a Black icon on the posters to make it look like a Munster Soul night, try to sneak people in. It was a stupid, because we called it Quangodelica, and everyone got confused between the band and the night. You learn from the mistakes."
The band's self-titled debut intends to act as an introduction for new listeners, and has slowly been on the boil for a number of years, reflective of the band's approach to creativity, recording and the grand balance between anywhere up to 15 performers across the record's duration. The theme for the album came to Allott amid all of that chaos, during their studio time in Camden Palace Hotel, and that's a fair assessment of the experience.
"It's always tricky when you've got that many people. The advantages to something that big, is a different energy, live. I've played lots of different types of music over the years, and this is so much fun. When you've got a big horn section, guitars… you can't out-'ear-damage' three trumpeters, they're so powerful, and it becomes this thing. Sometimes it's really difficult to stop.
"Quangodelic on a good night, it's like a runaway train, you don't know where it's going to go, what's gonna happen or who's going to show up. The advantage of having so many people, is that you can keep the show on the road if you're missing a few. It's a matter of who's available when."
That same recording process, and the resultant herding of cats across several studios and rehearsal spaces, has contributed to the feel of the record, a faithful document to the band's live experience. Getting that feel has been all-important to Allott specifically, and he's happy with the end result in that regard.
The process itself, though, was a reflection of some of the band's own circumstances and events. "I think the trick was to not use the click track, get it live as possible. It is that simple. If you overthink it… some of it worked really well, some tunes didn't come out so good so they didn't make the album. One of the sessions we did, the drummer had got horribly drunk the night before and broke one of his favourite drum machines, which made him really cross and intense, so the songs that needed to sound relaxed sounded awful, but that songs that needed to sound cross, he was absolutely on it."
The record was mixed by Charleville man Stephen Rea and mastered by Rockstar Studio in the UK. The real stars of this release, however, are Dublin record-pressers Dublin Vinyl, the first new plant in Ireland in over three decades, and specialists in affordable short runs for indie artists.
"I have only got good stuff to say about Dublin Vinyl. I handed over the masters to them, and got back a good, thick, 180-gram vinyl. It sounds amazing. We kept the length of sides to the right length. Keep it less than 22 minutes a side, and they can do a good thick groove that sounds right."
Pat's own excursions into crate-digging over the past few decades have created a rich and varied archive of releases for him to dig into for DJ sets and other adventures, including a lifetime of engagement with community radio stations. This continues today with his weekly slot with Coburg Street-based online station Room101, 'The Funk, The Whole Funk and Nothing But the Funk', a pre-recorded set directly from his decks, and the depths of his collection. "I've done a lot of DJing (at radio and in clubs) for a long time, and what happened when I came to Ireland was, I was doing a lot of indie stuff, goth stuff like the Sisters of Mercy to keep the punters happy. Then I moved to Dublin, and I was free to reinvent myself, play funk, hip-hop… Alex at Room101 is dead-on. The big thing is sitting down, playing records, getting them onto MP3. The show is (taken from) my collection, and that takes time, but it's also really nice. When you have shedloads of stuff lying around at home, it's kind-of sad, so it's nice to be able to listen."
The band, in various configurations, is taking on a small run of dates around the county to launch the record, including a February 22 trip to the Kino, on Washington Street, for a free gig. The venue has played host to the band in the past, and a stage of that size is well-able to play host to the whole ensemble on the big night. But capacity aside, the venue has a special significance for Allott himself.
"We were doing a regular one there for a while, it was lovely. Because it's an old cinema, it's a 'dry room', and treated in such a way that if you hit a snare, it doesn't reverberate forever. I love the Kino, I took my daughter to see Studio Ghibli films there when she was young enough, when it was still a cinema. I'm delighted it's still in action at some level, with lots of good stuff on, it's a great venue."
Quangodelic play The Kino on Washington Street on Friday, February 22. Kickoff is at 9pm, and admission is free. The band's self-titled long-player will be available on the night.

Lincoln's hidden gems: Guildhall and Stonebow
Take a tour: Take a look around rarely seen spaces in Lincoln. First in the series is the Guildhall and Stonebow on Lincoln High Street.
By Emily Norton Associate Editor
Ask any Lincolnite for a secret city pearl and you'll no doubt find yourself stumbling on a hidden space to treasure.
Some nooks between the city's streetscape are so rarely explored they are left to reside in the archives, so our photographer is diving in to reveal them.
The first hidden space in the series is the Tudor Guildhall and Stonebow, which hovers above Lincoln High Street, where the southern gate to an old Roman city once stood.
The name 'Stonebow' comes from 'stennibogi', a Norse word meaning stone arch.
The Guildhall, which is the official 'home' of the Mayor of Lincoln, was finished in 1520 and replaced the Roman gateway to Colonia.
Occupying the whole of the second floor of the building, the Guildhall still plays host to full council meetings and City of Lincoln Council events.
It also houses numerous pieces of regalia, including the sword of King Richard II, the Mayor's Chains of Office and the Mayor's posy ring.
Find out more about the Guildhall and Stonebow, as well as free guided tours of the building on the Visit Lincoln website or by contacting the Lincoln Visitor Information Centre on 01522 545458.

The dates for the two first round matches to be arranged between the teams concerned.


Autumn, a favorite time of year for a myriad of reasons. Its beauty, rituals, traditions, and spiritual transcendence capture many different aspects within a short few months of time.
It truly represents so much more when you take the time and space to go beneath the surface and ask the harder questions. In doing so we prepare ourselves for a deeper time of darkness, reflection and healing; so that when spring arrives we are sincerely at a place of light, renewal, resurrection, and beginnings.
We each walk our own unique journey which no one else can say what is right or wrong about the directions we take; whether it be the sharp turns, the rushed speeds or the steady pace on our paths, they are our own.
We must own that which we choose to walk towards, all the while being nurturing aware of the careful balancing act our steps can lead to; so as to not suffocate in one's pains, trials, and stories that are brought to the surface during our time of meditation and reflection.
Personally, this time of the year has truly been one of letting go or doing the hard things. As fall began to approach, much of my life had been in some significant transition for the positive and well-being of my journey. In every step of the way it was about doing the hard things despite fear of failure, rejection or what could have possibly become more turmoil.
It was a challenge daily I presented to myself, for I recognized in doing the hard things, good could come out on the other end. And truthfully, I have not always been one to trust the good or know how to respond to its gifts.
While there were fears still in my heart and on the surface to take this trust walk; a strength, faith and renewed courage guided me deeper in the spiritual process. Beforehand, I was so sure of writing my own story, that taking a risk seemed too great and terrifying. I was certain of my outcome in life standing still. But, then I had to ask myself the hard question of realistically can we ever be certain?
Taking my own advice, I recently stepped up in what has been my greatest challenge for the last 2.5 years and took the risk to do the hardest thing I have done in a very long time. In doing so, I was showered in light, peace, confidence and opened up to a future of possibility. I had feared so long taking the leap to do that which was hard, but when I paused to remember who I was deep down, I became free like the leaves that turn their colors and fall to the ground. They know their purpose as I knew mine in that moment. I breathed in the courage needed long enough to embrace the real aspect of 'letting go' of all that I thought was true instead of what was true. I was set free.
As I watch the winds push the trees in the changing season, I too pushed back and found my strength that was there all along. I simply needed a reminder as well to trust myself again…easier said than done at times.
When is the last time you approached autumn with this reflection in mind? When have you paused to question the deeper meaning of fall and letting go in your own life?
When have you trusted the darkness letting it consume you rather than running from it, while having faith that doing the hard things will bring you to your light in the end?
Then consider that which you know must change and release your self-inflicted story allowing for a new story to be written in the light that will come with Spring.

UPDATE: East Orange Man Arrested in Metuchen Drug-Related Fatality
By kcora on October 24, 2018 at 5:10 pm EDT
Middlesex County Prosecutor Andrew C. Carey and Chief David Irizarry of the Metuchen Police Department said a second man has been arrested and charged in connection to the death of a 24-year old borough resident.
According to authorities, Leland Alexander, 30, of East Orange, has been arrested and charged with one count of strict liability for a drug induced death for providing the combination of heroin and fentanyl that killed the 24-year old man.
Officials say Alexander was charged on October 24, 2018, for the drug induced death of the victim who was found dead in his home on September 28, 2018. The Middlesex County Medical Examiner determined the cause of death to be the result of the combined toxic effects of heroin and fentanyl.
An investigation by Detective Sergeant Robert Belluscio of the Metuchen Police Department and Detective Erik Larsen of the Middlesex County Prosecutor's Office determined that the defendant supplied the combination of heroin and fentanyl which caused the victim's death.
Police similarly charged Sherman Williams on Oct. 19th in connection to the death of the victim.
According to authorities, Alexander is currently being held at the Middlesex County Adult Correctional Center pending an initial court appearance in New Brunswick Superior Court.
The investigation is active and is continuing.
Anyone with information is asked to call Detective Sergeant Belluscio at (732) 632-8500, or Detective Larsen at (732) 745-3263.
As is the case with all criminal defendants, the charge against Alexander is merely an accusation and he is presumed innocent until proven guilty.

The Shippon & Calf Shed North Wales
In the past there were hundreds of slate quarries producing vernacular slates with distinctive colours, textures and sizes. Those days are long gone and there are now only a few active quarries in North Wales, Cornwall and Cumbria. To help overcome the loss of the distinctive roofs produced using vernacular slates, in 2011 we arranged to buy slate block from Welsh Slate Ltd to hand split and dress slates to a traditional range of sizes and thicknesses.
The first roof to be covered with these slates produced on site was on the shippon and calf shed near Caernarfon. Although this was a humble building the project received the National Federation of Roofing Contractors Heritage Award in 2013
Since then our Traditional Slate Company has produced slates for many roofs including facsimile Swithland slates using Welsh Slate's Heather Blue slate from Penrhyn Quarry near Bangor and blue-gray slates from Cwt y Bugail quarry in Blaenau Ffestiniog. Swithland slate was last quarried in about 1834 in Leicestershire.
The slates for this particular project were made on site after delivery of slate block. this is a premier service that we offer by making the slates next to the project. The roof was in poor condition with metal sheeting and various sized modern slates. The roof was stripped and the timber work repaired prior to the slating works. The slates were laid to riven lath with no felt and pegged over the laths. The roof was then lime mortar torched from the inside. This project is on the foot hills of Snowdon and has withstood high winds and rainfall. The roof looks as good today as when it was first slated.

'The Power Of The Dog' director Jane Campion talks casting Benedict Cumberbatch, switching shoot to New Zealand
By Wendy Mitchell2022-01-07T16:06:00+00:00
Jane Campion is generating major awards heat nearly three decades after she won the best original screenplay Oscar for The Piano. Screen talks to her about her investigation into masculinity in Netflix western The Power Of The Dog.
Growing up in Wellington, New Zealand, Jane Campion and her friends used to sit atop grocery boxes and pretend they were riding horses — "It was my favourite game to play as a kid, crossing the American divide, pretending we were in wagons."
Campion's new film The Power Of The Dog is not a typical western, but it does explore some of the mythologies of the American west that captivated her as a child, "The sense of being on a journey, a sense of space and freedom," she says, talking to Screen International during her visit to the BFI London Film Festival in October.
That was something she found in Thomas Savage's book of the same name. "I don't see it as a western in that typical way," she explains. "I see it more of an intimate portrait of a family, and of growing up in that very masculine ethos as a different kind of man, which Thomas Savage was — he was someone who could pass in Montana in this masculine world as a cattle man, with a more sensitive brain. He wrote about the west in a different way than people writing about the romantic idea of the cowboy."
Savage's 1967 novel, and Campion's film, tell the story of troubled rancher Phil Burbank, who has a fraught relationship with his brother George, and starts to bully and torment George's new wife Rose and her teenage son Peter when they move into the family ranch in a frontier town in 1920s Montana. The film is very much a four-hander, with Benedict Cumberbatch and Jesse Plemons playing Phil and George, Kirsten Dunst as Rose, and Kodi Smit-McPhee as Peter.
"I thought of them as the four strands of the braided rope," Campion says, referencing the leather rope Phil uses to teach Peter how to braid. "In the book, Savage changes perspective, so I tried to do that in the adaptation as well. You follow the story from more than one point of view."
Another pivotal creative decision was to not show the audience the person who could be seen as the fifth character — Bronco Henry, the late cowboy who had a huge impact on Phil's life. "He is kind of the haunted heart of the story," Campion explains. "I felt there was a strength in never seeing him, and we never did flashbacks to explain more. It helps the mystery of the story and the secrets of it, that there are things you can't see."
Leaving much of the past, and some of the present, unsaid was important to Campion. "When we meet people in real life, we don't get their whole life story, we're just here in a moment and take it as it is. Then you slowly have people talking about their past."

Jane Campion, director of The Power of The Dog
The Power Of The Dog was a book Campion had loved for decades, and after finishing BBC/Sundance Channel miniseries Top Of The Lake: China Girl, she found herself again captivated by the story of Phil Burbank as she contemplated her next feature. She learned Canadian producer Roger Frappier held the rights to the book, and after the pair met at Cannes in 2017, he was thrilled to move forward in partnership with Campion — who is lauded as the first woman to win the Cannes Palme d'Or for her 1993 film The Piano, and one of only seven women to be Oscar-nominated as best director.
Frappier and Campion (who also serves as one of the film's producers) brought on UK-based independent producer Tanya Seghatchian, who had become a friend of Campion's after backing 2009 feature Bright Star when she worked at the UK Film Council. Also on board were producers Iain Canning and Emile Sherman of See‑Saw Films, who knew the director from working on two seasons of Top Of The Lake. BBC Film also backed the production.
Netflix bought international rights outside New Zealand and Australia, later launching The Power Of The Dog at Venice in 2021, where Campion won best director. The streaming giant released the film in select cinemas in November followed by the platform launch in December. Early awards bodies have showered the film with nominations, including 10 at the Critics Choice Awards, while the New York Film Critics Circle gave Cumberbatch and Smit-McPhee the two male acting prizes and named Campion best director. Campion looks a strong contender to net her first Oscar and Bafta film nominations since The Piano in 1994.

Benedict Cumberbatch, Jane Campion and Kodi Smit-McPhee on The Power of the Dog set
Cumberbatch has range in roles from Doctor Strange to Sherlock and The Imitation Game, but he was not an obvious choice to play a sadistic 1920s Montana rancher. "Casting is always a gamble, but I knew he put his hand up for it and he was game," Campion says. "He has courage and he's a badass, charismatic person, which Phil needs because otherwise we would just totally hate him.
"Ben is a kind person and I always felt confident to speak my mind to him. We would have strong dialogues with each other that maybe would sound quite rude to other people," she says with a laugh. "But it was just how we are designed, and we were there for each other. He also came up with great ideas to change or fix things."
Despite it being her homeland, Campion was not the first one pushing to shoot in New Zealand. "I went to Montana to scout but it was very hard to find the Montana of 1925," she says. "We knew we'd have to build a lot there, so it was going to be expensive. We did some recces in New Zealand and compared that to our location search in Montana. We even showed our location scout in Montana some photos from New Zealand and asked him where they were in Montana, and he'd say, 'Oh, just a bit further south.'"
In the end the production shot in studios in Auckland and on location on the remote South Island of New Zealand, near Central Otago. Campion had worries the isolated setting could wear on cast and crew. The opposite was true — "We were all team players and we were together out in the wild. Everybody was falling in love with that countryside and that expanse. I worried they might find it bitterly lonely and socially isolated, but they all adored it."
Isolation might have been one of the keys to saving the project when the pandemic hit. They had been several weeks into shooting in 2020 when a shutdown was enforced, and the team had to pause for four months.
"We were fortunate we could restart when we did, safely," Campion says, after New Zealand pushed its Covid-19 infection rate down to zero. Cumberbatch had stayed in the country during the pause, but real‑life partners Dunst and Plemons returned to Los Angeles and had to come back and quarantine before resuming the shoot.
]"This gap gave me a chance to review what we had done already and what was working best and what could be better," says the filmmaker. "I learned a lot that informed the second half of the shoot.

Jim Leavitt Joins the 49ers
Former University of South Florida head coach Jim Leavitt has agreed to a contract to become the linebackers coach of the San Francisco 49ers, Rick Stroud of the St. Petersburg Times.
The 57-year old Leavitt was the USF head coach for 13 seasons, leading the former 1-AA program to a 95-57 record and as high as a #2-ranking in the national polls in 2007. Leavitt was fired last January after being accused of grabbing a player by the throat and hitting him in the face.
Last week, the school and Leavitt reached a $2.75 million settlement to resolve a wrongful termination suit.

Jen Psaki reprimands Boris Johnson as she blames him for chaos in Oval
White House press secretary Jen Psaki on Wednesday blamed British Prime Minister Boris Johnson for the chaos in the Oval Office the day before, saying they were not given a head's up he was going to call on members of his press corps.
'He called on individuals within his press corps without alerting us to that intention in advance,' she said in her daily press briefing.
Psaki was quizzed repeatedly on why British reporters were called on during the Oval Office meeting with President Joe Biden but American reporters were not. White House aides ushered reporters out of the room, shouting over the journalists, as they tried to ask Biden questions.
'I think the president has not spent a minute worrying about it,' Psaki said.
She defended Biden's availability to the media to answer questions about his agenda and events happening in the United States. Psaki pointed out that Biden answered questions from the press 135 times leading up to September and three times in the last week.
She wouldn't commit to the president holding a formal press conference – he's only held one as president – but called the media 'vitally important to democracy.'
'Certainly I'm sure we will have another one,' she said when asked if Biden would hold another presser but said it was 'not at the top of the list of American public's concern.'
White House press secretary Jen Psaki blamed British Prime Minister Boris Johnson for the chaos in the Oval Office the day before
PM Boris Johnson called on British reporters but President Biden did not call on any American ones during their Oval Office meeting, leading to outrage among the American press
On Tuesday Biden did not recognize any American reporters for questions during his meeting with Johnson and his aides cleared out journalists as they tried to query the president.
Biden did attempt to answer one shouted question from a CBS reporter about the crisis on the Southern border but his answer was unclear when White House staff shouted down reporters, covering the president's attempt to respond as they demanded journalists leave.
'Violence is not justified,' Biden appeared to say but the rest of his response was not decipherable.
White House staff even interrupted Johnson as they pushed to get reporters out of the room, shouting over the British prime minister as he and Biden sat in their chairs, watching the chaotic scene unfold as aides ushered journalists out of the Oval Office.
As reporters were ushered out, CBS White House reporter Ed O'Keefe shouted a question to Biden asked about the situation on the U.S.-Mexico border. The administration is facing backlash and criticism following images of U.S. Border Patrol agents on horseback using whips to round up migrants or prevent them from stepping onto American soil.
But White House aides yelled 'thank you' and 'let's go' to the press in the room, herding them out as Biden appeared to try and address the issue. Between the shouting of his aides and the president's wearing a face mask, it was impossible to make out the majority of what Biden said.
The president seemed to know what he and the prime minister where in for when he wished Johnson 'good luck' after the prime minister said the two leaders would take a few questions.
'I think we will take a couple of questions, just a couple of people,' Johnson said.
'Good luck,' Biden responded.
Johnson then took control, calling on two British reporters for questions that he and Biden answered. The president did not call on a single reporter.
With no American reporter called upon and, as White House staff said it was time to go, the U.S. journalists started shouting questions at Biden and Johnson. That is when aides shouted them down.
'I think that's it,' Johnson quipped as the aides shouted at reporters and journalists shouted questions.
After reporters were pulled from the Oval Office, a group of American reporters making up the 'pool' – the small group of journalists that follow the president to represent the entire press crops – went into Psaki's office to give her a formal complaint about the situation.
'The entire editorial component of the US pool went immediately into Jen Psaki's office to register a formal complaint that no American reporters were recognized for questions in the president's Oval Office,' noted CBS radio correspondent Steve Portnoy in his report. Portnoy is also president of the White House Correspondents Association. 'And that wranglers loudly shouted over the president as he seemed to give an answer to Ed O'Keefe's question about the situation at the Southern Border. Biden's answer could not be heard over the shouting.'
'Psaki was unaware that the incident has occurred and suggested that she was not in a position to offer an immediate solution,' Portnoy's report continued. 'Your pooler requested a press conference. Psaki suggested the president takes questions several times a week.'

At the beginning of their meeting on Tuesday, Biden and Johnson exchanged pleasantries and joked about their shared love of trains. The prime minister took the Amtrak train down from New York City, where he was at the annual UN General Assembly meeting, to meet with Biden at the White House.
'They love you,' Johnson told Biden of Amtrak. 'You are a living deity on Amtrak, I can tell you.'
The president bragged how he had ridden over 2 million miles on the nation's train system.
'Well, they should. I've traveled more on Amtrak,' he said. 'If I were conductor I'd be number one in seniority.'
Johnson thanked Biden for hosting his first White House meeting. The two men were both in New York on Tuesday for the UN meeting but each traveled separately to Washington so they could meet at the White House.
'I want to thank you very much for today. It's great to be with you,' Johnson said. 'And This is a very important trip for us in the UK and we've seen some great progress just in the last period.'
He thanked Biden for lifting the ban on British beef in the U.S. and for easing the travel ban, allowing those fully vaccinated to travel between the U.S. and UK.
Biden had a notecard in hand – as he usually does for meetings – that he referred to during his remarks with Johnson.
Johnson then called on a few British reporters to ask questions. The two leaders were quizzed on the Harry Dunn case, possible trade deals and the Irish protocols. Reporters when then escorted out as the American press shouted questions to Biden about the latest crisis at the border and the situation with the French.
Biden reassured Johnson that the case of Harry Dunn, who died in a road crash involving U.S. diplomat Anne Sacoolas, is 'being worked on' even as no details were released.
But there seemed little prospect of Johnson get his wish for a trade deal.
'We are going to talk about trade a little bit today and we're going to have to work that through,' Biden cautioned.
Johnson, in the wake of Brexit, wants a free trade deal.

Johnson was at the White House for his first in-person meeting as prime minister. He first met with Vice President Kamala Harris before he joined Biden in the Oval Office.
'It's a great honor and privilege for me to be here to meet you for the first time. I've heard a lot about you but it's fantastic to be here,' Johnson told Harris at their meeting.
He praised the new announcement on climate funding from the United States, which Biden announced during his speech at the UN General Assembly. Biden said he'd ask Congress to double the amount of money for public climate financing – to about $11 billion a year.
'I just want to say, Madame Vice President, Kamala, on climate change I think that today was a really good day for the world. And I thank the U.S. government and President Biden for the steps you've taken to reassure the world that America is committed to helping to tackle climate change,' Johnson said.
Harris welcomed the prime minister, talking about the 'shared priorities' of the two countries – including the COVID pandemic and climate change.
'And of course we must work and continue to work together to uphold and protect democratic principles and values around the globe. And we look forward to that continuing relationship, and our relationship as partners,' she said.
Johnson also praised the U.S. easing its travel ban, allowing fully vaccinated people from the UK to come visit the United States.
He and Harris met in the vice president's ceremonial office in the Eisenhower Executive Office Building, across the driveway from the White House.
After their remarks, Johnson and Harris walked outside to the balcony overlooking the West Wing of the White House. They posed for photos and waved to journalists below.
Johnson and Biden took separate trips from New York to Washington on Tuesday to meet at the White House amid rising tensions with the French.
The two leaders were in New York for the UN General Assembly meeting but didn't meet face to face there. Instead their sit down on Tuesday evening will be in the Oval Office of the White House, a symbol of power and more recognizable backdrop.
It's Johnson's first trip to the White House, a visit he never made during Donald Trump's presidency, partially due to the COVID pandemic.
The British prime minister took the train from New York City to Washington D.C. a move the president – who earned the nickname 'Amtrak Joe' when he commuted daily from Wilmington, Del., to the nation's Capitol as a senator – appreciated. Biden on Tuesday took Air Force One back to Washington.
The two men previously met in person in June at the G7 meeting in Cornwall.

Joe Biden will sit down with Johnson in the Oval Office amid tensions with France over new AUKUS alliance – Biden flew from New York to DC on Air Force One
Johnson gushed over Biden in an interview with NBC's Today Show, which aired Tuesday morning ahead of their meeting.
'What I will say about Joe Biden and dealing with the new American president, yes, it is a breath of fresh air in the sense of the some things on which we can really really work together, and you knew I was gonna bring it up — climate change — he's great on that,' he said.
His remarks were seen as a swipe at former President Donald Trump.
But Johnson said the UK would seek a good relationship with whoever was in the White House.
'It is the job of the prime minister of the UK to have a good relationship with the president of the United States,' he said. 'The US-UK relationship – we are doomed, we are fated to get along. That applies to Donald Trump, that applies to Joe Biden.'
On Wednesday morning, the British prime minister will be on Capitol Hill to meet with Speaker Nancy Pelosi.
The British and American leaders are touting their close special relationship amid French fury at the new US-UK-Australian alliance, dubbed AUKUS, that saw Paris lose a $90 billion sub contract.
French President Emmanuel Macron recalled France's ambassadors to the U.S. and Australia after the deal was announced.
Biden has yet to address the situation and is attempting to speak to Macron.
'We're still working on the scheduling of it — with President Macron in the coming days,' White House press secretary Jen Psaki said on Monday.
'And what I expect the President will do on that call is reaffirm our commitment to working with one of our oldest and closest partners on a range of challenges that the global community is facing,' she noted.
Johnson, meanwhile, will celebrate the new deal with a dinner Tuesday night at the Australian Embassy in Washington D.C. with Prime Minister Scott Morrison.

Meanwhile, Biden and Morrison met in New York City on Tuesday afternoon where they emphasized their partnership was in the best interest of the world. The AUKUS deal, as it has been dubbed, is part of American moves to counter China's growing power in the Pacific region.
'The issues we discussed and our partnership today really do reach out to so many others in terms of how we address the global challenges,' Morrison said as he met with Biden at the United Nations General Assembly meeting in New York
Biden agreed. 'It goes well beyond just our partnership. Our partnership is in line with all the other democracies in the world. And we got a lot of work to do,' he noted.

Connection Boxes or Controllers: allow fixed mount scanners and image scanners to communicate with other devices such as Photo Electric (PE) Sensors and Process Line Controllers (PLC). Example: A product is traveling down the conveyor, it breaks the PE sensor beam, and the PE Sensor sends a message through the Connection Box to the scanner to read barcodes. When the scanner reads the barcode, the data is communicated through the Connection Box to the PLC Controller. The PLC uses the data to fire a divert to send that product to the correct packing station.
