Q: Python urllib2 Redirection Issue I am trying to run a simple script on my aws instance. Same script works well on windows 7  and ubuntu (python27). But when i run my scripts on my server the web site redirects me to an error page it says "you must enable js on your browser".
I tried a lot of things until now (user-agent, redirection handler, mechanize ext). I am getting these redirection only with the domain below. All other js enabled websites works well.
Do you have any idea?
import urllib2
req = urllib2.Request("http://www.sahibinden.com/ilan/emlak-konut-satilik-karatepe-emlak-tan-zumrutevler-de-2-plus1-ara-kat-luks-daire-186413632/detay")
response = urllib2.urlopen(req)
the_page = response.read()
print the_page

EDIT: It turns out the web page is blocking my server ip. Thanks for help

A: There's no error in your code.
You need a js interpreter in it.
urllib2 just gets the raw data and does not interpret the js code in the page.
You can check this: How to interpret JavaScript with Python

Also, it works fine with following code:
import requests
session = requests.Session()
session.get('http://www.sahibinden.com/ilan/emlak-konut-satilik-karatepe-emlak-tan-zumrutevler-de-2-plus1-ara-kat-luks-daire-186413632/detay').content.decode('utf8')

it returns tons of html code like this:

19 December, 2010 creative work, gender, happy postsartists, autobiography, cartooning, comics, media and pop cultureAnnaham
As some of you may know, I am a cartoonist and graphic novel fan in addition to my regular duties blogging here at FWD. While I don't get the "HEY ANNAHAM WHAT COMICS AND STUFF DO YOU LIKE TO READ?" query too often, I thought it might be useful to give an overview of graphic work that I think FWD readers and commenters might enjoy. Many of my recs have to do with illness and disability; a few, however, don't. I'm always working on a new cartoon of some sort (mostly single-panel or multiple pages), and want to share the fruits of my research with folks who may want to read graphic novels, but have no clue where to start. Alternatively, some of these might make useful gifts for the holidays, either for the comics fan in your life or for yourself!
Lynda Barry: This woman is pretty much my hero. Although Barry has a background in art, her work shows that you don't have to draw comics "realistically" for them to have an impact, or for the artwork to be strikingly beautiful. I probably would have stopped drawing autobiographical cartoons long ago were it not for her work; I do not have much artistic training to speak of, and there seems to be a widespread misconception that only "trained" artists can draw cartoons worth reading! While Barry does not address disability in her cartoons, many of her colorful slice-of-life strips bring readers back to the confusing and bizarre world of childhood and adolescence. If you were — or are — a "weird kid," you will absolutely connect with Barry's comics. Her 2008 creativity manual-slash-collage dreamworld What It Is may be particularly useful for the artists (or wannabe-artists), or indeed anyone who needs a push to start writing and creating; a follow-up, The Near-Sighted Monkey Book, was recently released. For those not familiar with her work, I recommend The Greatest of Marlys (a compilation of her long-running alternative comic strip Ernie Pook's Comeek) and the autobiographical collection One! Hundred! Demons! to start, followed by What It Is; for those of you who like darker material involving (fictional) teenaged misadventures, drug use, and general weirdness, her illustrated novel Cruddy is a must-read.
Alison Bechdel, Fun Home (2006): Known primarily as the writer and illustrator of the alternative comic Dykes to Watch Out For (also worth checking out!), Bechdel really hits her stride with this lengthier autobiographical tale of family drama, the tensions between appearances and reality, destructive secrets, and sexual awakening. I could provide a synopsis, such as "This is a story about the writer's complex relationship with her father," but it is so much more than that. This is one of those books that I want to recommend to everyone who enjoys reading; it's a work that rewards the time put into it tenfold. I get something new out of it every time I re-read it. The way that Bechdel draws facial expressions is nothing short of priceless, and the narrative as a whole is consistently amazing, complex, and intense.
Al Davison, The Spiral Cage (1989): This one can be sort of hard to track down, but: it's very much worth the effort. Davison has spina bifida, and this graphic novel chronicles his life with both that condition and Chronic Fatigue Syndrome/M.E. The result — with its many nods to surrealism, and interesting explorations of masculinity and disability, as well as spirituality — is an honest, beatifully written and illustrated look at life with multiple disabilities.
Rantz Hoseley (editor) et al., Comic Book Tattoo (2008): Do you like (or love) Tori Amos' music? Do you enjoy comics? If so, this is probably an anthology that you will get lost in for a couple of days. I was way, way into Tori's music before I discovered comics and graphic novels, and the amazing range of this anthology — a collection of short graphic works and interpretations inspired by the singer's massive back-catalog — makes it worth a look. For a compendium with such a huge variety of artistic styles and song interpretations, this collection has very few duds, and the overall quality of the stories included makes it worth the $30 price tag. This is not an anthology that you will read only once and then shove it onto the bookshelf to collect dust, in other words.
Harvey Pekar and Joyce Brabner (with illustrations by Frank Stack), Our Cancer Year (1994): Comics writer Harvey Pekar (he died earlier this year) was known as the cranky protagonist of American Splendor, but this collaboration with his wife, peace activist and journalist Joyce Brabner, brings illness and disability into the mix, and the result is positively great. Although the Pekar-Brabner-Stack team do not gloss over the realities of cancer at all — there are ample panels, and pages, that show the gruesome, life-altering effects of testicular cancer and its harsh treatment protocol — one does not get the sense that showing the worst aspects of this disease is for shock value. As Pekar and Brabner assert at the start of Our Cancer Year, this graphic novel is not just about cancer — it is also about partnership, the everyday (or not-so-everyday), and life.
David Small, Stitches (2009): For a full-length graphic work that doesn't use much text or dialogue, this is certainly an astonishing piece. Small, who is a children's book illustrator, utilizes his unique artistic style for this memoir, which tells the affecting tale of his battle against cancer — and near-fatal family secrets — starting when he was 11 years old. Small's success at creating an overarching mood in this book is difficult to describe; all of the seemingly small choices that he makes as an author and illustrator here add up to a memoir that is both harrowing and ultimately life-affirming. In a review of Stitches for PopMatters, writer Sean Ferrell comments that "[the] book does not exemplify rising above, it exemplifies the continuing, life-long struggle to release the toxic histories we drag around with us." It is truly to Small's credit that he has used such painful past experiences to create an unforgettable work.
Commenters, what are some of your favorite comics and graphic works?

Here's the scoop: Despite the fact that I am sort of a cartoonist and "into" graphic art, I am, sadly, not totally on the up-and-up when it comes to comics and graphic novels! So, I need recommendations from you fine FWD commenters for a project that I will be starting on rather soon. I am mostly looking for autobiographical comic/graphic novels, comics/graphic novels having to do with illness or disability, race, and/or gender and sexuality (I prefer non-fiction for these categories), and comics/graphic novels that cover awkward situations in childhood, adolescence, or young adulthood (fictional or not). Also, how-to books (such as Eisner's Comics and Sequential Art, which I already own and have dog-earred to infinity) are also welcome as suggestions, as I will definitely need inspiration.
Here's a list of stuff I already have that is in one or more of the above categories: One! Hundred! Demons! (Barry, 2002); Fun Home (Bechdel, 2006); Funny Misshapen Body (Brown, 2002); The Spiral Cage (Davison, 1992); Cancer Made Me a Shallower Person (Engelberg, 2008); Jokes and the Unconscious (Gottleib and DiMassa, 2006) Stitches (Small, 2009), American Born Chinese (Yang, 2006) [thank you to my fellow blogger Anna for reminding me of this one].
PLEASE, SUGGEST AWAY!

Dorian at Dorianisms: "Men Who Get It"
The danger lies in beginning to assume that you are some kind of Ultimate Authority, and in particular, that you can teach people about their own experiences. That you know better than marginalized people what is happening in their lives, with their marginalization. That you are the Ultimate Arbiter of what is and is not offensive. In short, once you assume you "get it", it's very easy to become a mansplainer. Or a straightsplainer or ablesplainer or whateversplainer, as the case may be. The point is that this is really, really, bad. And can pretty directly be traced to the assumption that you "get" something better than, y'know, the people who actually live it.

Jeffrey S. Ravel named head of MIT History
"In the MIT History section, we foster an historical literacy that encourages MIT students to think deeply about change in earlier periods. Having a nuanced understanding of past successes and failures helps MIT graduates fulfill the mission of service to the nation and the world."
— Jeffrey S. Ravel, Professor of History
Deborah Fitzgerald, Kenan Sahin Dean of MIT's School of Humanities, Arts, and Social Sciences, has named Jeffrey S. Ravel head of the MIT History section, effective July 1, 2015.
"I'm delighted that Jeff has agreed to take on this post," Fitzgerald said. "He is an outstanding historian, committed both to the mission of MIT History and to its members, and I am confident he will ensure the continued excellence of the section."
Ravel, who holds a secondary appointment in Global Studies and Languages, researches French and European political culture from the mid-17th through the mid-19th centuries. He is the author of The Would-Be Commoner: A Tale of Deception, Murder, and Justice in Seventeenth Century France (Houghton Mifflin, 2008) and The Contested Parterre: Public Theater and French Political Culture, 1680-1791 (Cornell University Press, 1999).
Historical literacy helps MIT graduates serve the world wisely and well
"I am privileged to be able to serve as head of this dynamic section," Ravel said. "Our MIT historians write cutting-edge monographs, and publish in national and international newspapers and journals. They contribute to the newest frontiers in world and transnational history, and to the history of the environment. In our graduate seminars and undergraduate classrooms, we introduce MIT's brilliant students to the pleasures and paradoxes of the past.
"In doing so, we foster an historical literacy that encourages MIT students to think deeply about change in earlier periods. Having a nuanced understanding of past successes and failures — one that takes into account multiple factors over variable time frames — helps our graduates fulfill MIT's mission of service to the nation and the world."
Ravel, who joined the MIT faculty in 1997, is a co-founder of CÉSAR, a website devoted to the study of 17th and 18th French theater. He also directs the Comédie-Française Registers Project, a collaborative venture with the Bibiliothèque-musée of the Comédie Française theater troupe and several French universities. He is a past co-president of the Society for French Historical Studies.

The Hillside Public School is committed to excellence. In todays' global community, the study of a second language is an indispensable attribute of an educated person. The Hillside School District offers a multifaceted, comprehensive language program. The curriculum encompasses interpersonal, interpretive and presentational communication modes while emphasizing the interrelationship between the language and its respective culture. Moreover, multiple language acquisition enables the individual to reflect upon and gain insight into the student's own language and culture.
In order to meet the demands of this ever changing society/world, the Hillside School District provides a choice of language offerings. The goals for all modern languages offered require the mastery of the language with the five areas of emphasis: speaking, comprehension, reading, writing and understanding the culture of the people whose language is under study.
The teachers provide learning experiences that enrich the students' cultural, social and global awareness. The classroom practices differentiate lessons to address multiple learning intelligences. Classroom instruction is driven by the district curriculum.
Spanish 1 / French 1
The beginning course stars with simple conversations in the target language and continues with an emphasis on understanding and speaking. A certain amount of reading and writing task are assigned. A vocabulary useful for normal work and play is applied to achieve mastery of simple sentence structure. The culture and life style of the various countries speaking the language is infused parallel to the language learning.
The second year course continues the emphasis on understanding and speaking the targeted language. Through daily oral and written assignments and attention to pronunciation, students' approach fluency in many constructions. Sentences patterns at this level become more complex, introducing a wider range of tenses and idioms. Greater attention is given to the expanded reading and writing skills. The increased vocabulary of the culturally oriented materials is geared to family, living, travel, work and recreational activities.
Spanish 2 Honors
The Honors class is open to any student who has maintained an above average or higher in Spanish 1, and who has demonstrated accelerated proficiencies in the area of speaking, reading, writing and comprehension. It will include all aspects of Spanish literature. It is expected that the majority of students in the class will continue the study of Spanish the following year on an AP level.
Spanish 3/4 / French 3/4
In the third year of study much freer use is made of the language patterns already mastered. Continued attention is given to active control of listening and speaking, and the range of idioms is greatly enlarged mainly through works of literature and study of civilization. Students at this level generally begin to function independently in the target language and acquire advanced reading and writing skills.
The Honors class prepares students with an intermediate level of language acquisition. Students will further develop their four communicative skills-listening, speaking, reading and writing through interpersonal, interpretive and presentational activities. These skills promote extended language understanding. Upon completion of the course, students will have the necessary skills in order to enroll in advance placement classes.
Spanish 3/4 AP
The advance placement program is designed as a two year course. It is open to every student who has successfully mastered the skills and proficiencies of level one and two.
The overall goal of the course, as set forth by the College Board is to prepare the students to perform at a high level of proficiency in the four basic language skills: listening, speaking, reading and writing. Upon completing the course, students are expected to be able to comprehend formal and informal targeted language, and to speak, read and write with a high level of proficiency similar to that of a third year college program. These goals will be accomplished through a variety of teaching techniques, using a wide range of material, both basic and supplemental.
Upon completion of the program, students will take the Advance Placement Language and Culture exam. Success on this exam will result in the student receiving college credit, or placement, or both from institutions of higher learning.
The fourth year course studies the language and people at an advanced level. Extensive use is made of all four language skills – listening, speaking, reading, and writing. Composition is integrated with the review and expansion of grammatical patterns. Students at this level are generally able to function independently in the targeted language.
The Spanish 4 Honors class offers students the opportunity to excel in an intermediate mid language acquisition. Students will have the opportunity to research, dialogue, write and read Spanish Literature from Spanish speaking countries. The class activities will review grammatical usages. Class instruction and activities will address all four language skills – listening, speaking, reading and writing. Upon completion of the course, students will understand Spanish literature, use diverse vocabulary in conversation, write expressive sentences and comprehend native speakers.
ESL /ELL Basic
ESL/ELL is designed for non-English speakers or for those whose skills are very limited. This class focuses on developing listening, speaking, reading and writing skills through a variety of activities. Specific grammar instruction and increasing vocabulary are also a part of the intensive daily instruction. Students will be exposed to the language of math, science and social studies as part of their content based instruction.
ESL/ELL Regular
ESL/ELL R is designed for low to high intermediate language learners. The focus of this class si to develop vocabulary through context, improved reading comprehension and speaking skills and increase the student's writing fluency. Discussion on current events and written projects will also be used to assess the student's progress throughout the year. Students will be exposed to the language of math, science and social studies as part of their content based instruction.
ESL/ELL Advanced
ESL/ELL A is designed for students who have successfully completed ESL/ELL R but were unable to exit the program. Engaging students in American and World Literature will serve as a focal point to develop and strengthen critical thinking skills as well as providing opportunities for writing. Discussions on current events will server to increase their overall basic knowledge of world events as well as providing opportunities for thoughtful discussions. Students will be exposed to the language of math, science and social studies as part of their content based instruction.
World politics, commerce, culture, and migration place heavy demands on the American citizenry for foreign language skills which years ago were not necessary. In order to meet these demands, the Hillside School District provides a choice of language offerings. The goals for all modern languages offered require the mastery of the language with five areas of emphasis: speaking, comprehension, reading, writing, and understanding the culture of the people whose language is under study.

On March 4, 2019, the California Supreme Court unanimously affirmed the appellate court's decision in Cal Fire 2881 v. California Public Employees' Retirement System, upholding the 2012 elimination of a pension benefit for public employees. The narrow decision in favor of the State will not have much effect on school boards and county offices of education, but the Court's decision is still significant. The law at issue In 2012, the Legislature enacted the California Public Employees' Pension Reform Act of...
Student data disconnect persists as California works to lower achievement gap
An integrated data system to assess student performance and results is desperately needed in California, two researchers said at a May 10 talk in Sacramento. At the event, experts discussed key findings on data systems from the Getting Down to Facts II report and next steps. "California is falling short of other states [by not having] a comprehensive data system," said Jesse Rothstein, director of the California Policy Lab at the University of California, Berkeley. "We have certain pieces but...
Enthusiastic Capitol crowd calls for Full and Fair Funding of California's public schools
From Humboldt County, Monterey, San Diego and beyond, school leaders converged on Sacramento by the busload on May 22 to make their voices heard and to fight for Full and Fair Funding of California's public schools. About 200 school board members took that fight to the steps of the State Capitol, where they joined thousands including CSBA staff, the California Teachers Association and other education partners in an afternoon Day of Action Rally for Education. Whether teacher, administrator, school employee,...
CEO's Note: The 'big short' in California school funding
by Vernon M. Billy This past January, educators across the state (and nation) were fixated on the Los Angeles Unified School District's six-day teacher's strike. The LAUSD strike was followed almost immediately by a seven-day work stoppage in Oakland and a highly publicized one-day walkout for Sacramento USD teachers on April 11. These bargaining conflicts in some of California's largest urban school districts are representative of the funding crisis looming large in districts across the state. The undeniable fact is...
Commentary: Fighting for students, rallying for public schools
"Every student should graduate high school prepared for success in college, career and civic life. Unfortunately, our ability to deliver on this promise has been compromised by 40 years of underinvestment in public schools," write Burbank Unified School District leaders in a new commentary published by the Los Angeles Times. "If we want to meet our responsibilities to the next generation of Californians, adequate funding must be restored so that we can reduce class sizes, retain and recruit quality educators,...
Legislative Update: CSBA co-sponsored bills on the move as key deadline approaches
On May 16, both the Senate and Assembly Appropriations Committees held their respective suspense file hearings, determining which bills that require an appropriation of funds will continue to advance this year. CSBA co-sponsored bills passed by the Assembly Appropriations Committee and sent to the Assembly Floor include: Assembly Bill 39 (Muratsuchi, D-Torrance), which would increase the Local Control Funding Formula base grant targets equivalent to the national average in per-pupil funding; AB 751 (O'Donnell, D-Long Beach), the "Pathways to College...
Asian Pacific American Heritage Month: Meeting Pacific Islander student challenges
Nearly 30,000 Pacific Islander students are enrolled in California public schools in the 2018-19 school year. The majority of these students come from low-income households, and many struggle academically and have among the highest rates of chronic absenteeism of all student groups. As one of the fastest growing populations in the United States, it is important for leaders to understand the unique cultural needs of Pacific Islander students to support their learning. Empowering Pacific Islander Communities, or EPIC, was founded...
Report card: Districts must better implement laws supporting, protecting LGBTQ students
A first-of-its-kind report card finds that many of California's unified school districts must improve their implementation of LGBTQ-inclusive programs, policies and curriculum. The Equality California Institute surveyed and assessed 130 unified districts across the state to produce the 2019 Safe & Supportive Schools Report Card. While the institute reports that great gains and protections have been achieved for California's LGBTQ students through the Legislature in recent years, policy implementation and management greatly varies at the district governing board level. Some...
Governor's May Revision sees slight increase for K-12 funding
Gov. Gavin Newsom released his much-anticipated budget revision on Thursday, May 9, taking a cautious approach in most areas despite larger than expected growth in state General Fund revenues. Overall, the May Revision projects an increase of $3.2 billion in state General Fund short-term revenues over the January budget. The revision also includes a softening of revenue estimates beyond the budgeting period by lowering expectations in 2022–23 and beyond. Education funding highlights from the May Revision include: A reduction in...
Director-at-Large shares insights during Asian Pacific American Heritage Month
CSBA joins the nation in celebrating May as Asian Pacific American Heritage Month Of the 6.2 million K-12 students attending California public schools in 2018–19, 9.3 percent are Asian, 2.4 percent are Filipino and .5 percent are Pacific Islander. These populations are composed of students from many cultural backgrounds who are an important part of California's fabric. They also each bring their own unique stories, aspirations and qualities to the state's public schools. To help ensure representation for these students,...

Joseph Carcione ( ; October 31, 1914 – August 2, 1988) was a consumer advocate known as "The Green Grocer."

Golden Gate Produce Terminal
Carcione owned and operated a produce import/export business at the Golden Gate Produce Terminal II in South San Francisco, one of the three Bay Area Wholesale Produce Markets, the others being, Oakland Wholesale Produce Market, and San Francisco Wholesale Produce Market.

Television and Radio
Carcione got his start doing radio commercials for his produce business in 1967, when he was discovered by KCBS radio announcer Dave McElhatton.
He went on to host short television and radio bits offering advice in the world of produce, and wrote a newspaper column and two books on the same subject. The Greengrocer television news feature was produced on location at the Golden Gate Produce Terminal and syndicated throughout the United States and Canada. Commercial television stations contracted with Mighty Minute Programs of San Francisco to obtain the exclusive rights to broadcast Joe Carcione's Greengrocer report on a market-by-market basis. In some television markets, the feature was sponsored by grocery stores interested in associating with The Greengrocer.

Personal life
Carcione married Madeline Ahern in 1937. They had three children. He died of intestinal cancer at Peninsula Hospital in Burlingame, California on August 2, 1988 and was entombed at Holy Cross Cemetery in Colma, California.

He was well known for, among other things, a dish called the "Joe Carcione Special", which consisted of shredded cabbage in place of pasta, sauteed with onion and garlic, and topped with marinara sauce and grated cheese.

In Popular Culture
Darryl Henriques parodied him as Joe Carcinogenni on KSAN (1968 to 1980).

The Simpsons S10E17 makes reference to "The Red Grocer", a meat-focused play on Carcione's show.

How to diagnose gastroesophageal reflux disease abbreviated as GERD?
GERD is usually diagnosed based on the typical symptoms. However, some people that suffer from GERD don't experience any clear symptoms; thus, the need for special methods arises. Also, additional methods are used to monitor the progress of the therapy.
Currently, the golden standard of GERD diagnosis is esophageal pH monitoring.
Esophageal pH monitoring - allows to easily detect reflux disease, assess its severity and monitor the patients' response to the medical treatment. This method can be carried out with a single or dual sensor for pH monitoring using a pH catheter, or by using a Bravo or OMOM pH monitoring capsules which allow for wireless pH monitoring.
Esophagogastroduodenoscopy (EGD) – during this method the doctor inserts a tube into the patient's mouth. This tube contains a camera, which allows the doctor to view the interior of the patient's esophagus, stomach, and small intestine. This device can also take tissue samples from the walls. EGD allows the gastroenterologist to evaluate the damage to the esophagus, though it's less commonly used to evaluate the success of the treatment.
Barium swallow X-rays while the patient is lying down – during this procedure the patient swallows a barium sulfate suspension (which is opaque to X-rays), which coats the esophagus with a thin layer of barium, enabling it to be viewed on X-rays. Horizontal position of the patient allows for the higher amount of barium to be present in the esophagus. Baking soda (sodium bicarbonate) is often used in combination with this method to fill the esophagus with air, thus, creating a double contrast, which allows for a better visualization of the mucosal layer of the esophagus and any changes to its structure.
Proton-pump inhibitor test (earlier known as omeprazole test) – involves administering a proton-pump inhibitor (usually omeprazole or rabeprazole) to the patient to see if the symptoms (which are thought to be the manifestation of GERD) will disappear. If the symptoms disappear, then the diagnosis is verified. Rabeprozole is more suitable for this purpose than omeprazole, since the former acts quicker than any other proton-pump inhibitor. Studies have shown that this test is at least as sensitive as the ambulatory 24 hour esophageal pH monitoring for diagnosing GERD.
Esophageal manometry – is not used as a diagnostic tool, but is recommended prior to surgery. This method is carried out using a catheter to evaluate the motor function of the upper and lower esophageal sphincters, and the esophageal body.
Test for biliary reflux – this test is sensitive to alkaline substances and is used to diagnose a condition during which biliary fluid flows back into stomach and then the esophagus.
Esophageal scintigraphy – allows diagnosing GERD by providing a quantitative date on esophageal transit, while exposing the patient only to small doses of radiation. The main advantage of this technique is that it is not invasive.
Bernstein test (also known as acid perfusion test) – is used to determine whether the substernal pain is caused by reflux esophagitis. It is performed by instilling a weak hydrochloric acid solution directly into the distal part of the esophagus. The pain disappears when the acidic solution is replaced with normal saline solution.

3 Cardinals Who Should Sit Out 2020 if Rob Manfred Institutes 50-Game Season
By Michael Luciano | Jun 12, 2020
St Louis Cardinals stars Kolten Wong and Paul Goldschmidt / Dilip Vishwanat/Getty Images
The 2020 MLB season is looking less likely by the day, and there is a growing belief that the owners' proposal of 50 games with prorated salaries will end up being ratified, much to the chagrin of players across the league. With several St. Louis Cardinals on the verge of big paydays, it's time to consider sitting the year out if it ends up so drastically shortened. With so much on the line, this trio should leave nothing up to chance.
3. RP Jordan Hicks
St. Louis Cardinals reliever Jordan Hicks / Ed Zurga/Getty Images
Hicks has star written all over him, as the 23-year-old closer regularly exceeds 103 miles per hour on the radar gun. Unfortunately, Hicks' hard throwing style got the better of him last year, as he is still in the middle of Tommy John surgery recovery. Playing in 2020 was unlikely before the pandemic hit, and rushing him back for just a handful of games this year could risk ruining his pro career. Let him spend 2020 on the sidelines so the triple-digit flamethrower returns at full strength in 2021.
2. 2B Kolten Wong
St Louis Cardinals 2B Kolten Wong / Rich Schultz/Getty Images
The Redbirds will need to make a decision on Wong, who is a free agent at the conclusion of the 2020 season. Long thought of as a solid defender first and foremost, Wong set a new career high in batting average in 2019 while reaching double-digit home runs for the first time since 2015 and earning himself a Gold Glove. Riding directly on the coattails of that tremendous 2019 season is a much better way for Wong to secure the bag as a free agent compared to playing for 50 measly games that could damage his value.
1. 1B Paul Goldschmidt
St Louis Cardinals first baseman Paul Goldschmidt / Michael Reaves/Getty Images
Goldschmidt signed a five-year, $130 million contract with the Cardinals following his trade from the Arizona Diamondbacks. He was scheduled to make around $26 million during the 2020 season, but 50 prorated games would only land him just north of $8 million. There is not much that Goldy can gain financially from playing in this shortened season, as he already secured himself a contract that will pay him until 2024. The best course of action is sitting this year out and starting up again in 2021. If nothing else, it sends a message that the players won't be forced to go quietly if the league and its owners try to strongarm them.

If final week's episodes of "Why Her?" had been all about G


OK, I spend a lots of hours making great sales funnels that tempted visitors to subscribe and after a time were persuaded to buy products. Alas, my sales a few days ago decreased and I was barely earning a fraction of what I did. I inquired here and there and it indicated that this is often a very common occurence and that most sellers actually have no notion as to what their dumb mistakes are.
Truthfully? They are not making any mistakes or errors!
There might be in truth an actually MORE terrible thing occuring. A very large numbers of computers presently have been invaded by some sort of spyware and more recently we discovered to our chagrin spyware programs that will change affiliate links on the owner's computer from his affiliate ID to the spyware invader's. That means you're providing all of the labor and they're robbing your sales!
If your sales are less than your expected sales - or more than you usually make - it is very likely that this is what is hurting you in such a detrimental way. With your links you are using now there is without any doubt nothing you can do to eliminate this disturbing occurrence. Is there any solution?
I love the internet and have been on for many years. Get your FREE Clickbank Treasure Map And Make Money Here: http://seller35.cbpirateblog.com Most of the time people use a tiny url service in order to shorten their url and receive a changed URL so it can't be edited, but I would n't advise you to do that. What probably will happen is that you'll choose one of the many services that will destroy affiliate cookies and you will not receive get the sale anyways. During the last few weeks though there have been a couple of link cloaking services that are completely related to affiliate marketing - these are the offerings that you must take..
The superior ones of these will be hosted on your own site and permit you to alter the links, etc. You maybe shouldn't attempt this and construct your own redirect script (only if you're a programmer) - you find yourself not having affiliate cookies.
I tried to find a program that can accomplish this but was instead redirected to a report about link cloaking. It's over 15 pages of directions about link cloaking and the reason why you have to do it. If you're worried about receiving the sales that you earned and holding thieves in their track, I strongly suggest you download it as well.
The information is named 'Cloak & Dagger Affiliate Secrets' and you can see it right here. This will help you why you should use link cloaking. It also will show you the various ways that people can steal links.
You should use 'Phantom Link Cloaker' (PLC) which is an excellent cloaking service that will run on your website. Not too long ago 'PLC' was upgraded to version two and a lot of new improvements were added. You can go to 'Phantom Link Cloaker' here if you have recently read the report or are now for certain convinced to look into a link cloaking service.

MORGAN v. THE STATE.
S96G0739.
BENHAM, Chief Justice.
E. Allen Morgan, Jr., was the driver of a truck involved in a two-vehicle collision after it crossed the centerline of a DeKalb County road. He was treated at the scene for a head injury by emergency medical personnel (EMS). Morgan was charged with several traffic offenses and driving under the influence to the extent he was a less safe driver (OCGA 40-6-391 (a) (1)) after he failed several field sobriety tests administered by the investigating law enforcement officer. At trial, the EMS personnel were not called by the State to testify although their names appeared on the State's amended witness list. At the close of the State's case, the trial court granted the motion in limine of the assistant solicitor, thereby prohibiting defense counsel from commenting to the jury on the State's failure to call the EMS witnesses. Morgan rested without calling any witnesses or submitting any evidence. He appealed the judgment of conviction to the Court of Appeals, citing as his sole enumeration of error the trial court's grant of the motion in limine. Citing Wilson v. Zant, 249 Ga. 373 (4) (290 SE2d 442) (1982), as authority for "[t]he general rule . . . that the defendant may not comment on the State's failure to produce certain witnesses," the Court of Appeals affirmed the trial court's grant of the State's motion in limine. Morgan v. State, 219 Ga. App. 760 (466 SE2d 658) (1996). We granted Morgan's petition for a writ of certiorari, asking whether this Court, contrary to the authority of Morgan v. State, 124 Ga. 442 (1) (52 SE 748) (1905), correctly adopted a rule prohibiting a defendant from commenting on the State's failure to produce certain witnesses. See Wilson v. Zant, supra, 249 Ga. 373; Roper v. State, 251 Ga. 95 (6) (303 SE2d 103) (1983). If that question is answered in the affirmative, we will then decide if the facts and circumstances of this case bring it within an exception to that rule, as contemplated by Wilson v. Zant, supra at 385.
1. By granting the motion in limine, the trial court limited the scope of defense counsel's closing argument. The permissible scope of argument is vast: counsel may draw from the evidence properly before the factfinder "any inference apparently reasonable and legitimate." Smalls v. State, 105 Ga. 669 (hn. 3) (31 SE 571) (1898). See also Towns v. State, 191 Ga. App. 229 (2) (381 SE2d 405) (1989). "[C]ounsel should be allowed considerable latitude of speech; and so long as extraneous facts are not injected or improper language used, the trial judge should not interfere." Morgan v. State, supra, 124 Ga. 442, 444. "[U]pon the facts in the record, and upon the deductions [the attorney] may choose to draw therefrom, an attorney may make almost any form of argument [the attorney] desires." Walker v. State, 232 Ga. 33, 37 (205 SE2d 260) (1974). "[T]hat the deductions [set forth by counsel] may be illogical, unreasonable, or even absurd, is matter for reply by adverse counsel, and not for rebuke by the court." Owens v. State, 120 Ga. 209 (hn. 3) (47 SE 545) (1904). See also Daniel, Georgia Criminal Trial Practice (1995 ed.), 23-5, and Evans, Opening and Closing Arguments, 1-6. Since the trial court determines the range of closing argument comment which is proper (Owens v. State, supra, 120 Ga. 209), in essence, the issue before us is whether the trial court abused its discretion by limiting the scope of defense counsel's closing argument.
2. By granting the motion in limine, the trial court prohibited defense counsel from drawing the jury's attention to the fact that the State did not present as witnesses the EMS personnel who attended to Morgan's injuries at the scene of the collision, and from suggesting that the uncalled witnesses would have been helpful in determining whether Morgan's appearance and behavior after the collision were attributable to the injuries he sustained rather than the alcohol he had consumed. After much discussion, the trial court based its ruling on this Court's decision in Wilson v. Zant, supra, 249 Ga. 373, and the Court of Appeals' decision in Prejean v. State, 209 Ga. App. 411 (3) (433 SE2d 628) (1993), which cited Wilson v. Zant as controlling authority.
In Wilson v. Zant, this Court addressed Wilson's contention about the prosecutor's comments in closing argument concerning Wilson's failure to produce certain witnesses who allegedly would have given favorable testimony. Conceding that Georgia case law permitted such comments by the prosecutor, Wilson contended that the Georgia rule was an unconstitutional violation of equal protection because a criminal defendant was not permitted to comment on the State's failure to produce certain witnesses. Id., 249 Ga. at 384. Without discussing the parameters of the "rule" limiting a defendant's ability to comment on the State's failure to produce witnesses, this Court resolved the equal protection argument against Wilson when it found a rational reason for the disparity between the two "rules." Id., 249 Ga. at 385. Since that decision was rendered, it repeatedly has been used as authority for a "general rule" that defense counsel cannot comment on the prosecutor's failure to produce witnesses. See, e.g., Roper v. State, 251 Ga. 95 (6) (303 SE2d 103) (1983); Morgan v. State, supra, 219 Ga. App. at 761; Kemp v. State, 218 Ga. App. 842 (2) (463 SE2d 385) (1995); Prejean v. State, supra, 209 Ga. App. at 413; Gober v. State, 203 Ga. App. 5 (5) (416 SE2d 292) (1992); Braggs v. State, 189 Ga. App. 275 (3) (375 SE2d 464) (1988). We conclude today, however, that the court's equal protection decision in Wilson v. Zant presupposed a rule prohibiting defense counsel comments broader than that which actually existed. Accordingly, we disapprove the holding in Wilson v. Zant and its progeny to the extent they can be read as endorsing a complete prohibition on defense counsel's ability to comment in closing argument on the State's failure to call certain witnesses.
3. In Wilson v. Zant, this Court cited Brown v. State, 150 Ga. App. 831 (2) (258 SE2d 641) (1979), and Gannaway v. State, 142 Ga. App. 87 (2) (235 SE2d 392) (1977), as the sources for Wilson's assertion that a criminal defendant is not permitted to comment on the State's failure to produce certain witnesses. 249 Ga. at 384. In Gannaway, the Court of Appeals affirmed the trial court's refusal to allow defense counsel to tell the jury that evidence which the State failed to present "could be presumed to contain adverse consequences to the state. . . ." Apparently, defense counsel's basis for the comment was the precursor to OCGA 24-4-22. 1 The Gannaway court stated it had long been the law in Georgia that such a presumption was not applicable in a criminal trial 2 and refused to find error where "the trial court refuses to allow the defense counsel to argue that the jury may make an impermissible inference. . . ." Id., 142 Ga. App. at 88. In Brown, 150 Ga. App. 831, the Court of Appeals rejected a criminal defendant's assertion that OCGA 24-4-22 authorized the defendant to argue that the jury might make a presumption or inference from the fact that all the witnesses on the State's witness list had not been called to testify.
These cases reiterated the admonition that the presumption set out in OCGA 24-4-22 is not applicable in criminal cases, and we endorse that position. However, Gannaway and Brown did not ban any and all attempts by counsel in a criminal case to comment, when appropriate, on the failure of the opposing side to present certain witnesses. While no legal presumption may arise from the failure to introduce certain witnesses, it is proper for opposing counsel to draw an inference of fact from such failure and comment on the failure to the jury when there is competent evidence before the jury that the missing witness has knowledge of material and relevant facts. Dorsey v. State, 204 Ga. 345 (3) (49 SE2d 886) (1948). See also Shirley v. State, 245 Ga. 616 (1) (266 SE2d 218) (1980); Contreras v. State, 242 Ga. 369 (3) (249 SE2d 56) (1978); Pritchard v. State, 160 Ga. App. 105 (4) (286 SE2d 338) (1981). "It is customary to permit attorneys to comment upon the absence of witnesses, or their non-production, when they are shown to be cognizant of the facts in issue. It is a mere matter of argument, and may be discussed by either side, trusting to the good sense of the jury to properly estimate the value of such arguments. [Cit.]" Morgan v. State, supra, 124 Ga. at 444. The court concluded in Morgan that "[t]he absence of a witness who is competent and cognizant of material and relevant facts is a proper subject of comment in the argument of [defense] counsel before the jury. . . ." Id., 124 Ga. 442 (hn. 1). Thus, both defense counsel and prosecuting counsel are entitled to comment during closing argument on the failure of the other side to produce certain witnesses.
In order to take advantage of the ability to make such closing argument commentary, both prosecuting and defense counsel must adhere to the basic limitation on the scope of cross-examination: the argument must be derived from evidence properly before the factfinder. See Blige v. State, 263 Ga. 244 (2) (430 SE2d 761) (1993). Case law reflects that a prosecuting attorney is able to comment on a criminal defendant's failure to produce certain witnesses when the defendant testifies to the existence of a witness with knowledge of material and relevant facts, and that person does not testify at trial. See, e.g., Shirley v. State, supra, 245 Ga. at 618; Contreras v. State, supra, 242 Ga. at 372; Rini v. State, 236 Ga. 715 (3) (225 SE2d 234) (1976); Dorsey v. State, supra, 204 Ga. at 351; Brewster v. State, 205 Ga. App. 770 (2) (424 SE2d 8) (1992). 3 Due, in part, to the breadth previously given the holding in Wilson v. Zant, there is little case law on the evidence which serves as the basis for defense counsel's closing argument comment on the absence of a witness with knowledge of material and relevant facts. However, in Morgan v. State, supra, 124 Ga. 442, defense counsel was permitted, after presenting a defense of justification, to comment on the absence of the stabbing victim from the trial, suggesting the absence was due to the victim's realization that he had been in the wrong. On the other hand, defense counsel's attempt to comment on the absence of persons whose names appeared on the State's witness list is appropriately quashed since there is no evidence placed before the jury that the missing persons have knowledge of facts relevant and material to the case. See, e.g., Roper v. State, supra, 251 Ga. 95 (6); Lucear v. State, 221 Ga. 572 (3) (146 SE2d 316) (1965).
4. Having concluded that defense and prosecuting counsel are equally able to comment on the failure of the other to present certain witnesses as long as that argument is derived from evidence properly before the factfinder, we apply the rule to the facts of this case. Defense counsel wished to remark on the State's failure to call the EMS personnel as witnesses and to suggest to the jury that the missing witnesses would have shed light on whether Morgan's post-collision condition was the result of his injuries rather than intoxication. The investigating officer had testified that the EMS personnel attended to Morgan at the scene of the collision, and that he may have suffered a broken nose. Since there was evidence properly before the factfinder of the existence of witnesses with knowledge of material and relevant facts, defense counsel should have been permitted to comment on the State's failure to call the EMS personnel as witnesses.

1 OCGA 24-4-22 provides:If a party has evidence in his power and within his reach by which he may repel a claim or charge against him but omits to produce it, or if he has more certain or satisfactory evidence in his power but relies on that which is of a weaker and inferior nature, a presumption arises that the charge or claim against him is well-founded; but this presumption may be rebutted.
2 In Mills v. State, 133 Ga. 155 (65 SE 368) (1909) and Sokolic v. State, 228 Ga. 788 (187 SE2d 822) (1972), this Court pointed out that OCGA 222 was "entirely inapplicable to criminal cases" because it violates fundamental principles of criminal law, i.e., guilt must be shown by competent evidence; the defendant's right to remain silent; and the presumption that one is innocent until proven guilty. When a defendant sought to take advantage of the presumption set forth in OCGA 222, this Court again held it inapplicable in criminal cases because it was inimical to the rights of a criminal defendant. Radford v. State, 251 Ga. 50 (7) (302 SE2d 555) (1983).
3 However, comment on the failure to call a witness who did not testify alter invoking a privilege is not permitted. James v. State, 223 Ga. 677 (157 SE2d 471) (1967).

The Syriac Dot (paperback)
By George Anton Kiraz
The dot is used for everything in Syriac from tense to gender, number, and pronunciation, and unsurprisingly represents one of the biggest obstacles to learning the language. Using inscriptions, early grammars, and experiments with modern scribes, Dr. Kiraz peels back the evolution of the dot layer by layer to explain each of its uses in detail and to show how it adopted the wide range of uses it has today.

Linguistic Coherence in Biblical Hebrew Texts
Arrangement of information, participant reference devices, verb forms, and their contribution to textual segmentation and coherence
By Lénart de Regt
Series: Perspectives on Hebrew Scriptures and its Contexts 28
This monograph explores the distinct ways in which four discourse devices participate in establishing coherence in Biblical Hebrew texts. Bringing together linguistics, literary analysis, pragmatics, and translation methodology, de Regt demonstrates how a thorough understanding of the functions of devices of linguistic coherence beyond the sentence level should be integrated into biblical translation methodology and Biblical Hebrew pedagogy.

Studies in Biblical Philology and Lexicography
Edited by Daniel King
Series: Perspectives on Linguistics and Ancient Languages 11
This volume offers papers that emerged from the meeting of the International Syriac Language Project (ISLP) which took place at Stellenbosch University, South Africa, in September 2016, and at the Humboldt-Universität zu Berlin, in August 2017. The ISLP invites research not only into Syriac, but extends its range to all ancient language lexicography. Hence its proceedings enrich the whole field of Syriac, Hebrew, and Greek lexicography. The ISLP especially encourages research into the interfaces between these languages, and hence the current volume contains a number of papers on translation equivalence: Hebrew-Greek, Hebrew-Syriac, and Greek-Syriac. Other philologically focused pieces explore matters relating to textual and manuscript traditions. All of these are preceded in the present volume by an extensive review of the production and achievements of the ISLP to date.

Conceptualizing Distress in the Psalms
A Form-Critical and Cognitive Semantic Study of the צרר1 Word Group
By Michael D. Rasmussen
Psalms containing lexemes derived from the Hebrew root צרר (to bind, be in distress) reveal a previously-unnoticed generic subgroup in the Psalter. Through structural and cognitive linguistic principles, Rasmussen explores issues related to genre, Hebrew grammar, and syntax in order to arrive at a set of three cognitive domains of "powerlessness," "palpable threat," and "entreaty" which are relatively unique to psalms that include צרר lexemes. Rasmussen also makes suggestions about the editorial process of the Hebrew Psalter, concluding that after the Babylonian exile, distress was more strongly associated with divine discipline and displeasure, whereas before the exile it was more associated with declarations of innocence.

CHILDREN in darkness -- it's a disturbing image. So troubling, in fact, that it might seem a lot easier simply to turn away from information about the desperate situations faced by many children in the world, situations highlighted in the series that begins in today's Monitor: ``Children in darkness: the exploitation of innocence.'' But turning away won't make the problem disappear. As the series makes clear, indifference only helps to perpetuate the misery of exploitation. In fact, dissolving indifference may be the most important first step we can take toward finding genuine, lasting solutions.
But what do we replace indifference with? Outrage? Righteous crusading? Past experience has shown that anger and fervor are not enough to sustain long-term reform. Perhaps our deepest need is for a change of heart, for the sort of spiritual awakening that allows us to understand childhood in a radically different, and powerful, light.
Obviously, Jesus placed great value not just on the state of childhood itself but on such childlike qualities as innocence, trust, unselfishness, and purity. His words indicate that the recognition and expression of these qualities are what enable us to enter the kingdom of heaven, to witness here the presence and power of God, good.
What a radical promise -- and warning -- the Master has given mankind! The childlike qualities that humans often perceive as weak and vulnerable are actually the cornerstone of our salvation from evil.
But how does cherishing childlikeness make a dent in the complex problems that lead to the exploitation of children? To realize clearly the God-derived powerexpressed in childlikeness is, at least in some measure, to understand where genuine authority lies -- not in wicked, carnal thinking but in Almighty God. And prayer that embodies something of this understanding can certainly help lighten the darkness of the world.
No matter how dire the facts of any situation appear to be, they're not telling us the whole story, because they don't represent what God, who is totally good, has actually created. Man in His image is loved and cared for. God's offspring are not at risk, because in God's infinitude evil has no legitimacy.
These are the actual, spiritual facts of being, though they seem hidden to a limited human sense of things. Through prayer -- through our mental insistence on the spiritual reality of good and our refusal to be indifferent to man's true status as the child of God -- we can have a direct, healing influence on world problems such as the exploitation of children.
Prayer is a powerful help. It's a practical, effective remedy because it calls upon the supremacy of the one almighty creator. The acknowledgment and wholehearted acceptance of the father-motherhood of God and of man's invulnerable spiritual selfhood must inevitably lessen the evidence which suggests that evil is insurmountable and that children are rather helpless mortals, capable of being mercilessly victimized.
The world has need of innocence, of spiritual steadfastness, of our stand for the reality of good. Such qualities can't be victimized; they must, and will, be victorious. Faced with the divine demand to conquer evil, can we afford to be indifferent?


Hey everyone! Here's my recap of DAY 2 at Disney's D23 EXPO in Anaheim. On DAY 2 I also hopped back and forth between the Expo and the parks. I'm going to complete separate Disneyland Parks Trip Reports this week to keep everything a little more focused. Here's DAY 2!
I decided to go to the expo dressed up like the tight rope walker from the Haunted Mansion attraction at Disneyland. Like my dress?
My partner in crime that day was Jenny-Rae, who appeared as her original character, Phyllis Herman. Now, Phyllis was Disneybounding as Edna Mode from the Incredibles. She looks great!
I only stayed about an hour at the Expo, but I got to meet the creator of Disneybound, Leslie Kay!
Also ran into other friends along the way!
There were some epic fashion displays!
Here's my video from DAY 2 of the Expo!
I love your outfit! D23 looked like so much fun!

Blue Ribbon Task Force to Stem COVID-19 Vaccine Hesitancy
THE CREATIVE COALITION & YALE UNIVERSITY SCHOOL OF PUBLIC HEALTH ANNOUNCE BLUE RIBBON TASK FORCE TO STEM COVID-19 VACCINE HESITANCY
Bringing together nation's top doctors, entertainment industry, NGOs, and America's C-Suite to tackle vaccine hesitancy
CDC Director Dr. Rochelle Walensky, Dr. Anthony Fauci, Fortune 500 leaders, and more joined The Creative Coalition President Tim Daly at inaugural Task Force meeting
March 9, 2021 (NEW YORK, NY) – The Creative Coalition today announced the National Blue Ribbon Task Force to Stem COVID-19 Vaccine Hesitancy, a national effort spearheaded by The Creative Coalition in partnership with the Dean of the Yale University School of Public Health that brings together the most significant influencers and leaders in the U.S. from the entertainment industry, Fortune 500 companies, academia, medicine, professional sports, retail, fashion, and NGOs to lead social welfare and public advocacy efforts to stem COVID-19 vaccine hesitancy. The Blue Ribbon Task Force will provide programming, leadership, guidance, and creative assets in a national campaign aimed at reducing vaccine hesitancy across the most vulnerable communities.
"The Blue Ribbon Task Force is the only program that maximizes the nation's best resources and most influential platforms in one voice to underscore the CDC's and Dr. Fauci's recommendations to achieve a COVID-vaccinated nation," said The Creative Coalition CEO Robin Bronk. "The Creative Coalition is honored to join the School of Public Health at Yale University in this critical effort to focus a national spotlight on the safety and efficacy of COVID vaccines."
"Public opinion is critical to public health," said Dr. Sten Vermund, Dean, Yale University School of Public Health. "By combining the influence and resources of The Creative Coalition, its allies in the entertainment industry, the business community, and the expertise of the Yale School of Public Health, the Blue Ribbon Task Force can move hearts and minds to ensure that Americans from all communities can access and embrace safe and effective COVID-19 vaccines. We are honored to be part of this first-of-its-kind partnership to boost public confidence in this vital barrier to disease. It was gratifying to see public health colleagues from Emory, Brown, Vanderbilt, and others contribute their expertise to this launch."
The Task Force held its inaugural meeting on Wednesday, March 3, at a virtual event attended by the nation's top doctors, including CDC Director Dr. Rochelle Walensky and Dr. Anthony Fauci, Chief Medical Advisor to the President of the United States; Hollywood talent including The Creative Coalition president Tim Daly, Harry Hamlin, Jon Huertas, CCH Pounder, Richard Schiff, and KT Tunstall. In addition to The Creative Coalition and Yale School of Public Health, other entities that are part of the task force include APCO Worldwide, BNY Mellon, Craig Newmark Philanthropies, Deloitte, Franklin Templeton, Stanley Black & Decker, The American Cleaning Institute, The Corcoran Group, UPS, and ViacomCBS, among others.
At the event, CDC Director Dr. Rochelle Walensky said, in part:
"We are here today to harness the power of influencers in building vaccine confidence. While we do see that confidence is increasing as more and more people get vaccinated and experience with the vaccine grows, we know that people who are admired can be influential and trusted sources when they are genuine in expressing their views. And this can translate into increased trust in vaccines and interest in getting vaccinated among fans and followers. Imagine what we could achieve together with your combined collaboration and massive spheres of influence."
Dr. Anthony Fauci said, in part:
"It is a fact that people listen to prominent members of society, particularly some that they might recognize, such as people in the entertainment business or people who've reached a degree of accomplishment and respectability in the business world. When those people are out there giving the message that they have confidence in the safety and the efficacy of the vaccine, it is surprising how many people you can actually win over… So I think the role that could be played is extraordinary and, likely, would be successful."
The Creative Coalition President Tim Daly said, in part:
"The arts can be the most powerful, transformative, and effective change-agent available to mankind. The Creative Coalition was founded to utilize the power of the arts, of letters, and of entertainment in partnership with influential leaders so that we can help provide for social welfare and serve the public good. The Blue Ribbon Task Force — this braintrust spearheaded by The Creative Coalition and Yale — is designed to provide programming, leadership, guidance, and assets to mitigate COVID vaccine hesitancy and, in turn, eradicate this virus that has paralyzed our nation and the world."
Co-chairs of the Task Force are Jenny Johnson, President & CEO, Franklin Templeton Investments; Margery Kraus, CEO and Executive Chairman, APCO Worldwide; Rob O'Neill, SVP, Content Strategy & Acquisitions, ViacomCBS; and Dr. Sten Vermund, Dean, Yale University School of Public Health.
