This charming tree bench measures 72"W X 36"D X 42"H with a seat height of 17". This bench is part of the Regency collection, which is inspired by the Regency period of Britain under the proxy reign of the Prince Regent George IV. This short era, which lasted from 1811-1820, gave rise to a new design style that followed the neo-classical Georgian Style of the 18th century by adding an elegance and lightness of touch. John Nash, one of the great architects of this period, designed the world renowned Regency terraces of Regent's Park and Regent Street in London. During the Regency period, the use of elegant, wrought iron architectural design elements became popular. This item is available in 15 different finishes and three different types of metal, wrought iron, galvanized iron and aluminum. Please make your selections from the drop down menus.

It is now too late that I may have time to look for the official report I had to make in June, 1888, about the deplorable state of affairs and the intolerable suffering of the Turtle Mountain Indians, and send it to you.
Yet, reading in your columns the statements of a United States marshal to the effect that he had to pay out of his own pocket funds to the amount of $1,000 for arresting alive, or without killing outright, nine persons—two Indians and seven half-breeds—destitute and starved almost unto death, and that too, with such a terrific posse of assistants as he mentions he had spread about, cautioning them carefully, like old Granny McDonald used to caution her grandchildren, not to go too near the fire, for it was hot and their flesh tender. I cannot refrain from stating that the actual condition of the Turtle Mountain Indian people is about the same today as it was in the spring of 1888.
In the winter of 1887 to 1888 there were counted 151 persons, big and small, who died there of starvation. I buried a number of them myself, taking three, the mother and two grown children out of one single family. The Sisters of Mercy, who support there a large number of orphans and destitute boys and girls, deprived their house of all they could in order to help me to carry pork, flour, sugar, tea, bread, etc., to all those we could reach. There were lots of young mothers who, after giving birth to their children, had to wait patiently for a meal until their husbands would return home from the hunt with a gopher or two, nothing else being found.
I state facts, remember. I do not put up stories.
You will ask: Why did not the lazy creatures provide themselves with provisions by cultivating the land? Why did not they?
In the first place they had no seed of any kind: and where the United States government was made to believe so many bushels of wheat, corn and potatoes had been distributed. If you had been there you might have found that so many things never reached the unfortunate; or, if any at all was obtained, it was only by a few favorites, while the others were rebuked and sent to do for themselves. One of the pleas was that so many Indians did not belong to that reservation, but had come from Manitoba and the northwest. It is no wonder that the starving people would not consider the magical cage line, called the international boundary, but would look for fish, game, etc., even if they had to cross that great line. I have seen in some instances, and have handled myself, hoes and other handmade wooden instruments of agriculture the natives were using so they could plant something, being refused assistance at the agency. I will cite one instance especially, that of old Joseph Wallet, over 80 years of age, who, unable to get as much as a hoe at the agency, made himself one of oak wood, with which, before my eyes, he planted a garden with his children, having procured some garden seed from a humane disposed storekeeper in the neighborhood, thus showing his earnest desire to work to help himself, if there was any way to do so.
Are the people better today? No, no. Why, then, did not our heroic marshal go forth with his mighty posse to distribute that $1,000 of his to the poor, suffering creatures, who, alas! were trying to save their starving children from the jaws of death. The marshal's action would be blessed today, and he would appear a much greater and nobler citizen of a Christian country.
The lands of the Turtle mountains are yet unceded, and while the poor Indians are so long waiting for the good pleasure of our government officials to settle the affairs of the cession of their property, is it a wonder that they would try to keep themselves by cutting and selling some of the timber? We believe it to be a true maxim that necessity has no law. In this, their extremity, the Indians had hardly a chance to hesitate; and who will blame them?
We read now the report that the marshal's life was in danger; that Red Thunder was hot. Should not Red Thunder be at least as hot as our marshal? It is good enough for the marshal that Thunder was alone and that there was no lightning. I do hope the marshal and his men will see to it that the children of their captives are not let die of hunger, while the law will take its course and a faithful investigation justify the marshal's victims.
I simply stumbled upon your weblog and wanted to say that I have really loved browsing your blog posts.
I accept the presentation of next week , for such information , I am in attendance .
I accept the above-mentioned arrest of your presence , You are wonderful too .

Men's Basketball Loses to Western Connecticut, 83-77
Point guard Tyshawn Gillespie posted team highs of 17 points and four assists to lead Western Connecticut to a 83-77 victory over MIT in the opening round of the Emmanuel College Tip-Off Tournament. The Engineers received sizeable contributions from James M. "Jimmy" Bartolotta '09, Billy Johnson '09, and Hamidou Soumare '07 but couldn't offset the Colonials' balanced attack and a 40-5 advantage off the bench.
The men's basketball season-opener on Saturday was tight throughout and featured 11 ties and 11 lead changes. The largest lead of the tilt by either team was a seven-point advantage for the Colonials, which MIT quickly reduced to four after a three-pointer by Bartolotta midway through the second half. The Engineers' biggest edge of the evening was five with 13 minutes left in the first period.
After battling to a 33-33 tie through the first 20 minutes, both teams picked up the pace in the second half. Bartolotta, who scored 24 points on 8-of-16 shooting, including 4-of-6 from three-point range, kept MIT in contention during a wild second half.
With the Engineers attempting to even the score and time running out in the second half, Western Connecticut guard Dashon Jennings connected on three consecutive baskets from beyond the arc to keep the MIT offense at bay.

Wrestling Loses to Rhode Island College, 33-12
Grant M. Kadokura '11, Joseph B. Silverman '10, and Glenn J. Geesman '09 all earned convincing wins over Rhode Island College, but MIT lost the overall battle, 33-12, in its first dual meet of the season on Wednesday, Nov. 14. In matches played out, the Engineers equaled the Anchormen in victories, though three forfeits by Tech in the middle matches proved costly.
At 125 pounds, Kadokura gave the Engineers a quick lead, taking a 6-1 decision over Greg Martell. Tech dropped the next two matches, though Kenzan Tanabe '11 put up a good fight in a 17-10 loss to Mike Bonora at 141 pounds.
After the three giveaways, Silverman won a 6-1 decision over Nick Logan at 184 pounds. Tech suffered another setback, before Geesman, at 285, prevailed by pin in 1:11.

Women's Swimming Topples Babson, Falls to Bowdoin
Nicole M. O'Keeffe '09 paced MIT's women's swimming and diving team with three victories on Saturday afternoon, helping the Engineers earn a split with host Bowdoin College and New England Women's and Men's Athletic Conference opponent Babson College. MIT downed Babson, 208-48, but were edged by the Polar Bears, 139-130.
Bowdoin defeated the Beavers, 195-59, in the afternoon's other match-up.
The Cardinal and Gray stand at 2-1 overall and 2-0 in the NEWMAC following the split, while Bowdoin improved to 2-0 and Babson fell to 2-4 overall and 1-1 in the conference.
O'Keeffe earned the Engineers' first victory of the afternoon in the 1,000-yard freestyle, finishing 1-2 with teammate Rachel E. Price '10. O'Keeffe clocked in at 11:02.10 to earn top honors, while Price followed closely behind at 11:18.93. O'Keeffe then copped maximum points in the 200-yard breaststroke (2:37.08) and the 200-yard individual medley (2:18.51).
Amy E. Jacobi '11 also placed first in two swimming events, winning the 50-yard freestyle with a time of 24.77 before touching the wall first in the 500-yard freestyle with a mark of 5:14.01.
Captain Doria M. Holbrook '08 continued her march toward a third national title by winning both the one-meter (251.18) and three-meter (255.08) diving competitions.
Last Wednesday night, the Engineers opened its dual meet schedule with a 179-118 victory over NEWMAC foe Wellesley College.
The Engineers will return to action in two weeks' time, as they will host the MIT Invitational on Friday, Nov. 30 and Saturday, Dec. 1.
Men's Swimming Defeats Bowdoin and Babson
MIT's men's swimming and diving team opened its dual meet schedule in stunning fashion on Saturday afternoon, winning 13 out of 14 swimming events en route to victories over host Bowdoin College (170-82) and New England Women's and Men's Athletic Conference foe Babson College (175-73). Bowdoin defeated Babson, 173-66, in the afternoon's other match-up.
The Engineers, who boasted the top three finishers in seven different events, improved to 2-0 overall and 1-0 in the NEWMAC with the pair of wins. Meanwhile, the Polar Bears moved to 1-1 with the split and the Beavers fell to 3-4 (0-2 NEWMAC) with the losses.
Jeffrey Y. Zhou '10, Rastislav Racz '10, Laurent Charpentier '10, and Luke R. Cummings '10 got the afternoon started for MIT with a victory in the 200-yard medley relay, touching the wall just over four seconds ahead of teammates Toomas R. Sepp '11, Deke Hu '09, Brendon M. Sullivan '11 and Peter J. Wellings '09. The two foursomes finished with times of 1:37.00 and 1:41.68, respectively.
Tech then grabbed the top four spots in the 1,000-yard freestyle courtesy of Michael J. Dobson '11 (10:03.27), Jack Hill '11 (10:19.04), Harrison K. Hall '08 (10:31.22) and Colin L. Hom '11 (10:48.01), before Charpentier and Wellings finished 1-2 in the 200-yard freestyle by clocking in at 1:46.06 and 1:50.56, respectively.
The Cardinal and Gray once again occupied the 1-2-3 positions in the 100-yard breaststroke, as Racz (1:00.04), Kalvin D. Kao '08 (1:03.44) and John R. Walk '10 (1:04.42) all touched the wall ahead of their opponents. Other events in which MIT copped the top three finishes included the 100-yard freestyle (Charpentier, Cummings, and Wellings), the 200-yard breaststroke (Racz, Kao, and Walk) and the 100-yard butterfly (Sepp, Hu, and George J. Rossick '11).
The Engineers' most impressive performance of the afternoon occurred in the 500-yard freestyle, in which they occupied spots one through five. Dobson picked up his second victory of the afternoon by clocking in at 4:54.54, and was followed by Hill (4:59.35), Udit Garg '09 (5:09.15), Zachary C. Cordero '10 (5:11.32), and Eric J. Roselli '11 (5:15.12).

MIT also grabbed the top four spots in the 200-yard individual medley and had the fastest relay team in the 200-yard freestyle relay, but the events counted as exhibitions, as the Engineers had already wrapped up the victories.
The Engineers will return to action in two weeks time at the MIT Invitational on Friday, Nov. 30 and Saturday, Dec. 1.
Men's Ice Hockey Downs University of New England, 4-1
Justin D. Myers '11 scored his first intercollegiate goal and fellow rookie Stephen L. Yablonski '11 notched his first intercollegiate win between the pipes, as the Engineers defeated the University of New England, 4-1, in NorthEast Collegiate Hockey Association Conference A East Division action on Friday night. MIT's record remained unblemished at 4-0-0 (3-0-0 NECHA) courtesy of the victory, while the Nor'easters fell to 0-5-1 (0-3-0 NECHA).
Ryan W. Ballentine '09 opened the scoring on a power-play at 12:41 of the first period, finding the net courtesy of feeds from Nicholas R. LaBounty '09 and Michael C. Kozlowski '08. Just over one minute later, it was Kozlowski's turn to score, as he netted the ultimate game-winner with help from Myers and Dustin P. Kendrick '09.
Exactly halfway through the second period, Kendrick and Ian M. Rousseau '09 fed Myers for his first-ever tally, while LaBounty rounded out the scoring for the Engineers at 4:08 of the period with assists credited to Ballentine and Kevin M. Farino '10.
The University of New England, which is maintaining a men's ice hockey program for the first time since the early 1980s, spoiled Yablonski's shutout bid with 8:16 remaining in the final period. The Nor'easters' leading scorer, Chris McCauley, rifled a wrist-shot past the rookie's blocker after taking a pass from Travis Pease.
Last Wednesday, the Engineers were victorious over Endicott College, 5-0.
The Engineers will return to the ice following a two-week hiatus when they will travel to Worcester, Mass., to take on Worcester Polytechnic Institute at 8:30 p.m. on Friday, Nov. 30.

Guild Spotlight: June
This week's spotlight focuses on June, an up-and-coming GvG-centered guild.
Guild name: June
Alliance: Daddy
Guild leaders: Goof
Date founded: June 1, 2019
Number of members: 290
Primary language: English
Tell us about your guild. What sort of activities do you focus on?
June is primarily a guild where you can find competitive PvP content, with a focus on GvGs and Crystal GvGs. We are aiming to be the best guild in the game on all fronts, not just GvGs. We are actively raiding mages, defending our territories and just recently have been conquering castles and attacking cities.
Where is your guild primarily located? What regions in Albion do you focus on?
We are primarily based out of Lymhurst. However... our 73 territories make it so we utilize guild islands on Thetford, Lymhurst, and Fort Sterling, so we are currently focused on all these areas.
Do you have any particular rivalries or ongoing quarrels with other guilds?
Given that we're one of the newer guilds in the game, we have made a name for ourselves with our ability to GvG and completely take over other guilds' territories. And as such, people have taken notice and attack us in search of a good fight. I'd say our biggest rival is Money Guild. They are probably the most well-rounded guild as they dominate every aspect of the game.
What were some of your most memorable battles/activities?
There have been many moments of valor for June, but one in particular stands out. As a new guild trying to make a name for ourselves, Money Guild saw us as easy prey. And during the off-season they decided to launch an attack to stop our world-conquering campaign. They got off a couple early wins and thought they'd got the better of us. But we didn't back down, and our core GvGers quickly adapted. They have since beaten the Money Guild A team 10 times in a row in their last 10 matches against them.
What does your guild do for fun?
The core idea behind June is that we have no mandatory content or CTAs. We try and find the fun in whatever we decide to do. We run daily mage raids, defend our own mages, run castle outposts and castles. We have tons of opportunities for players to Crystal GvG: we run an average of 15 Crystals every day, and have a live discord community. We also run many regular GvGs every day, and have plenty of opportunities to scrim in the guild.
What is your guild's approach to the game? Do you have any sort of overarching philosophy?
While June is aiming to be the best PvP guild in the game, it's important to note that we prioritize having fun and messing around above all else. That's why there is no mandatory CTA in our guild, the only thing we ask of our members is that they are active in-game and on our discord.
What are your goals for the future? What is your ultimate goal in the world of Albion?
The goal is to open up PvP content to those who want to compete in GvGs and Crystals. We want to dominate in city fights, and continue to establish the meta that other players follow.
Anything else to share about your guild?
We are an English-speaking guild, primarily US-based... but we are accepting international English-speaking players as well. We are recruiting active GvG/ZvZ players, and people who are interested in assisting the guild in our quest for #1.
Check out more videos of June in action:
June vs. Ironborn in Smoothfloor Well:
June vs. Inmortal in Weeping Marsh:
Guild Spotlights are a regular series showcasing the diverse activities of Albion's numerous guilds. If your guild has content to share (including interesting, high-quality videos), please contact PrintsKaspian via the forum.


Dear brothers and sisters, we have all been struck by the images of the earthquake that has devastated Ecuador, claiming numerous victims and causing incalculable damage.
We have all been praying that the Lord of Peace will help the survivors bear the terrible suffering of the loss of their loved ones and their homes and that those who have lost their life will be welcomed into His embrace.
Thank you in the name of our brothers and sisters in Ecuador.

OpenStack Summit, Atlanta 2014: Year of the superuser?
June 3, 2014Steve Gordon
The OpenStack community gathered recently in Atlanta to define the roadmap for the upcoming Juno release cycle and reflect on Icehouse. Icehouse is the release that forms the basis of the upcoming Red Hat Enterprise Linux OpenStack Platform 5, a beta for which was announced during the week.
The biannual summit moved back to North America and again increased in size with some 4500 stackers in attendance, up from 3500 in Hong Kong only six months ago. The OpenStack Foundation again handled this with aplomb, organizing an excellent event in the spacious Georgia World Congress Center.
2014, year of the superuser?
The increased presence of OpenStack superusers at this summit was hard to miss with several keynote appearances including AT&T, Disney, Sony, and Wells Fargo as well as many other users leading or participating in general summit sessions. A convenient youtube playlist listing these user-led sessions has since been made available. The OpenStack Foundation also recently launched the superuser.openstack.org publication to coincide with this renewed push to bring users forward.
This summit also saw the introduction of a new operator's track, a well received opportunity for operators to share their common experiences with OpenStack. The operator session on Upgrades and Deployment Approaches was particularly well attended, with a packed room and up to 86 people connected to the shared etherpad recording minutes.
In addition many OpenStack projects took advantage of the opportunity to engage the operator community by scheduling combined developer/operator design sessions to help with prioritization of development for the Juno cycle.
Among the many superusers present were a number of well recognized communication service providers, many of whom have been deploying OpenStack for proof-of-concept and even production usage for some time now. These service providers are working to decouple their network functions from the physical hardware infrastructure to instead be deployed as Virtual Network Functions (VNFs) on OpenStack clouds, providing increased scale and agility, and in the process reinventing their industry.
In recognition of the increased focus on running NFV workloads on OpenStack - and the unique opportunity the summit provides to bring developers and superusers together - an NFV-focussed "Birds of a Feather" session was held. This was extremely well attended and co-incided with the creation of a new subteam to focus on cross-project community collaboration to promote continued innovation in this area.
During the week Red Hat also announced our collaboration with eNovance to further our efforts at upstream collaboration to support NFV workloads on OpenStack and an Early Adopter Program for carriers and telecommunications service providers interested in exploring the benefits of OpenStack-based clouds for NFV projects.
Some NFV-related highlights from the general sessions included Toby Ford's (AT&T) keynote, Fernando "Fred" Olivero's (Verizon) lunch and learn, a presentation on IPv6 networking in OpenStack, a panel on the future of OpenStack networking, and a presentation on the OpenStack-based CloudBand NFV Platform from Alcatel-Lucent.
The summit again saw strong interest in OpenDaylight, an open source project aiming to drive adoption of SDN by providing a robust and extensible SDN platform. Sessions included a panel, developer session, and a demonstration. To see what all the fuss is about you can try it out with RDO using PackStack today.
To help you catch up on these and all of the other NFV and SDN related sessions we've collated a list of the best.
OpenStack for the enterprise and beyond
Over the last twelve months one of the most frequently posed questions, and one that was asked again in the Scaling OpenStack for the Enterprise panel, has been "is OpenStack ready for the enterprise?". As referenced above the increasing presence of enterprise users at summit suggests the answer is an emphatic yes, though how rapid OpenStack adoption is varies based on the enterprises involved.
For many organizations the stability of OpenStack Networking (Neutron) and lack of full feature parity with the legacy nova-network service continues to provide a barrier to entry, as does the lack of a clear migration path. These issues were much discussed at summit and will continue to be a real focus for the distributed Neutron team during the Juno release cycle including at a planned mid-cycle meetup.
With a view to continuing to facilitate enterprise adoption at a time when many organizations are looking to move their OpenStack deployments from the proof-of-concept phase to production Red Hat, Dell, and SolidFire announced a jointly produced reference architecture for Red Hat Enterprise Linux OpenStack deployments. Red Hat also announced a collaboration with NetApp to deliver an open hybrid cloud reference architecture based on OpenStack IceHouse. They also continue to collaborate on the Manila project, an effort to add a shared filesystem service to OpenStack, providing coordinated access to shared or distributed file systems.
Based on open technologies, these architectures are expected to help organizations build agile, interoperable private and hybrid clouds that are easily managed, massively scalable, and highly reliable.
To further assist enterprise users and the wider open source community with building open hybrid clouds Red Hat also announced the creation of the ManageIQ.org community around the coming open source release of the ManageIQ cloud management platform. This open source project is based on Red Hat CloudForms and is intended to fuel community innovation in the cloud management platform space. It currently includes support for managing Red Hat Enterprise Linux OpenStack Platform, Red Hat Enterprise Virtualization, Amazon EC2, VMware vCenter and Microsoft Hyper-V environments from management console.
As usual the summit provided an amazing forum for the community collaboration and design work required to build out the next community release of OpenStack, Juno. We will be reporting on these developments as they happen over the coming months as well as providing helpful shortcuts to trying out some of the new functionality using RDO milestone builds. The first Juno milestone is already just around the corner!

A Single Pendant Light You might be thinking, boring. But they're far from it. They come in such a huge variety of sizes, shapes, colors, finishes, and sub-styles. If you want to keep the design simple yet exciting, a single pendant light is a great way to brighten up your dining space.

In keeping with this rule, using three pendant lights above your dining table creates a more dynamic look than just a single one, but still keeps it simple enough to hang above your everyday dining table.

Designed by Robert Mills Architects and Interior Designers. Five Pendant Lights Again, in keeping with the odd numbers rule, five hanging pendant lights is a nice way to add a light source above your dining room table.
It ensures that everyone at the table will be able to see their plates and adds a slightly more dramatic look to your space than one or even three pendant lights would. See more photos of this apartment, here.

The long design of the light fixture means it can run the length of the table and provides everyone with ample lighting throughout the meal. They come in a wide range of styles which makes them suitable for contemporary industrial, minimal, rustic, or simple interiors.
One of the easiest ways to make a statement in your dining room is by switching out a single light fixture and replacing it with multiple fixtures. As you can see in the dining room of this house, designed by Govaert & Vanhoutte Architects, the multiple light fixtures define the dining area, create a more dramatic appearance, and make the space feel brighter and more inviting.
Photography by Tim Van De Velde Using lights of the same style but in different sizes makes the finished look more cohesive and intentional, and could fool people into thinking that the fixtures are actually just a single piece.
When deciding what kind of light to put above your dining table there are a number of factors to take into consideration. How long is the table; how big is the dining room; do you want an eye catching piece or something that blends in; how much light do you actually want it to give off.

मध्य प्रदेश के लोगों को राज्य के स्थापना दिवस की हार्दिक बधाई। मेरी कामना है कि प्राकृतिक संसाधन और कला-संस्कृति से समृद्ध यह प्रदेश यूं ही निरंतर प्रगति के पथ पर अग्रसर रहे।
— Narendra Modi (@narendramodi) November 1, 2021
Bhopal, Nov 1 (IANS) Chief Minister Shivraj Singh Chouhan will launch 'Atmanirbhar Madhya Pradesh', on the occasion of the state's 66th Foundation Day on Monday.
The blueprint of the project, a roadmap for making the state self-reliant on the strategy of Prime Minister Narendra Modi's 'Atmanirbhar Bharat', was unveiled last November.
The project encapsulates sustainable development of the state by 2023 with main emphasis on farm welfare schemes, job creation and booster shots for industry and healthcare, etc.
To boost up the economy and create jobs for youth, the Shivraj government has planed to establish small size industries along with big industries in the state.
"The scheme aims at making the state a hub of small size industries under which the citizens will be provided funds to establish industries," said an official spokesman in Madhya Pradesh government.
Marking the occasion will be cultural programmes at Bhopal's Lal Pared Chowk. The celebrations will begin at 6 p.m. with the performance of several regional and popular Bollywood artistes, including singer Mohit Chauhan.
"The theme of Atmanirbhar Madhya Pradesh-2023 will be presented by over 250 artistes participating in the programme. Marathon regional programmes of different districts will also be performed on the stage," the official said.
To acknowledge November 1 as its first Foundation Day, the swearing-in of first Cabinet of the state Assembly was held at midnight of October 31, 1956.
The State Recommendation Commission had recommended making Jabalpur as capital of Madhya Pradesh, however, Bhopal won the race and became the capital.
Interestingly, November 1, the state was divided into two parts and Chhattisgarh was formed in 2000.
Therefore, both the states — Madhya Pradesh and Chhattisgarh — celebrate their Foundation Day on November 1.

The term 'truthmaker' just labels whatever stands in the truth-making relation to a truth. The truth-making relation is crucial. It would have been just as well to refer to the truth-'maker' principle as the truth-'making' principle.
This is well said. The commitment of this theory is to something which makes each proposition true. There is no initial commitment to any theories about what sorts of things do the job.

All Over Our Region, Haunting Relics of the Greatest Show on Earth Remain
Ghosts of the Circus
After a long goodbye, Ringling Bros. and Barnum & Bailey Circus is going out of business.
By Robert Plunket April 26, 2017 Published in the May 2017 issue of Sarasota Magazine
The Showfolks of Sarasota, a social club for performers, is in DeSoto Acres, a neighborhood that was once zoned "Circus" and allowed residents to keep elephants. It was built in the 1960s and was a gathering place for many circus legends. Fewer circus folks live here today, but the club is still open. Inside you'll find rooms hung with memorabilia and a dark and somewhat gloomy bar that defines the phrase "glory days."
Photography by Virginia Hoffman
The train was the lifeblood of the circus, transporting performers, animals, workers and all the supplies and equipment they needed around the country. This former circus railroad car in Manatee County now sits silent and abandoned.
Hidden away on Fruitville Road, these four joined railroad cars—three of them originally belonged to the circus—are known as Bob's Train. The one-man creation of Bob Horne, the place serves as both a restaurant and a mini-museum of circus pictures, posters and memorabilia. Fans from all over the world find their way to it.
When the Ringling circus's winter headquarters were here, exotic animals and trapeze riggings could be found in many Sarasota back yards. And in a few areas of town, you can still see backyard rigging where aerialists in the small circuses and carnivals that today call Sarasota home practice their skills.
St. Martha's has always been the "circus church." John Ringling contributed funds for its construction.
Look for the elaborately embroidered circus-themed liturgical vestments and the wagon wheels displayed near the organ.
Some circus enclaves still remain off Lockwood Ridge Road. Hidden down a dirt road are five or six old houses where performers and roustabouts used to spend the winter. Empty for years, they're scheduled for demolition and a new development.
The Ringling Mausoleum at Manasota Memorial Park is the area's most imposing circus relic. It's the personal mausoleum of John Ringling's brother, Charles, who co-founded the circus with him and was a prominent developer in Sarasota. A number of other circus greats are buried at the park, including the legendary wire walker Karl Wallenda—but not John and Mable Ringling. They're buried near the Ca' d'Zan.
The Greatest Show on Earth is over. After a long goodbye, Ringling Bros. and Barnum & Bailey Circus is going out of business. The door has closed on one of America's greatest institutions. The spectacle, the hype, the bright lights, the aura of danger—it's now a part of history. And so much of that history happened here in Sarasota. The Circus Museum at The Ringling documents the story of the circus in vivid detail, but there's another way to see how closely the circus is woven into the fabric of the community. Throughout Sarasota and Manatee, ghostly reminders of the circus remain. Some are hiding, some are in plain sight. Faded vestiges of their former glory, they evoke the decades, from 1927 to 1992, when the region was the Winter Headquarters of the Greatest Show on Earth, training ground and year-round home to a host of stars, performers, roustabouts and wild animals.

UPDATE, 12:01 PM: Call Of Duty might want to go back to basic training. Grand Theft Auto V has now made more than $1 billion in worldwide retail sales in just three days. That's a target that previous record holder Call Of Duty: Black Ops II took 15 days to hit after its November 2012 release. Already shattering the previous first day sales record and beating Man Of Steel with its $800 million opening, the latest installment in Rockstar Game's GTA franchise has now surpassed No. 2 movie of the year so far Despicable Me 2's $840 million global box office. The game is now creeping up on 2013's top movie Iron Man 3′s $1.2 billion worldwide take.
PREVIOUSLY, WEDNESDAY PM: Looks like the fictional LA of Los Santos left Call Of Duty and Superman in the dust. First-day sales of Grand Theft Auto V pulled in a record $800 million worldwide, according to publisher Take-Two Interactive. Released Tuesday, the latest version of the ultra-violent franchise soundly beat previous first-day record holder Call Of Duty: Black Ops II, which sold $500M on its first day last November.
The GTA V result already sets it in front of Man Of Steel, which, with a worldwide haul of $663 million, is the No. 3 biggest movie of 2013 so far. "We are incredibly proud of Rockstar Games' creative achievement and could not be more pleased with the success of this launch," said Take-Two CEO Strauss Zelnick in an understatement today. The last GTA release was back in 2008 when the fourth installment saw a staggered release around the world. By the way, that $800 million worldwide figure for GTA V doesn't include big video game markets Japan and Brazil, where the game has yet to street.

Everton are set to welcome back Leighton Baines for their trip to Watford, the only positive injury news coming out of Goodison Park.
Whilst problems are beginning to ease for the Hornets, Everton will be without Eliaquim Mangala, who has suffered a knee injury, and Seamus Coleman is also a doubt for the televised game.
Centre-back Ramiro Funes Mori has been absent for just under a year and had suggested he was fit to play on social media earlier this week, but he'll be with the Toffees' U23 squad this weekend.
Baines has been out of action with a calf problem and has not played since Allardyce was appointed in late November. Coleman, meanwhile, suffered a horrific broken leg last season and only returned to action on transfer deadline day. A muscle problem will keep him out.
Allardyce also dismissed talk of the Marco Silva situation adding an extra edge to the game - the Everton chief was dismissive of Silva's credentials when he was appointed.
"That's nothing to do with us," Allardyce added.
"I think things have moved on now. What went on weeks & weeks ago certainly is long in the past.
"Everyone in football needs to look forward, not to the past"

So I've implemented OPNsense almost EVERYWHERE now, with only my core IPSEC VPN gateways to replace, once I figure out configuration patterns and passing dynamic routes.
Anyway, the issue that I'm having, is once I configure SSL interception, almost every site works fine, except for Google sites, or sites that use the Google CA.
I've attempted to use the unknown intermediate CA configuration to include additional certificates, but nothing seems to work, so thus I either don't visit Google, or don't enable SSL interception.
Has anyone else run into this problem when visiting SSL intercepted sites and received the UNKNOWN_CA_ERROR?
And how did you resolve the issue without disabling SSL interception.
I know this problem. This happens because the certificate chain contains an additional certificate. This one is checked against the installed CAs where it is not included (Equifax) The second certificate is valid in case of Google and should be the one which is validated.
This is a Bug in the TLS library which is afaik known (and fixed upstream) but the patch did not get into the stable version in the FreeBSD ports.
Ah I see. I'm using LibreSSL at the moment, so this problem that you mentioned is that with OpenSSL as well?
I think if I remember Fabian's tickets right this was a LibreSSL issue. We're bumping LibreSSL to version 2.5.5 with 17.7.1 so that should be fixed.
OpenSSL should be fine either way.
Thanks to the both of you for that info. I've switched back to OpenSSL for the time being, until LibreSSL catches up.
Ok, then I'm marking this solved.


Please pray for me and with me as I ask and pray for God's will to be done in my life as it is done in heaven and the grace to fully embrace and accept it in my life. Thank you God for your constant love,mercy,protection,forgivenes and blessings over my life and family. I love you God,my Father. Praise,honor and glory be to you always. Amen.

March 25, 2019 |Lino Graglia, Michael Rappaport, Michael Stokes Paulsen, Originalism, Robert Bork
The Many Flavors of "Originalism"
by Mark Pulliam|11 Comments
U.S. Constitution (Festa/Shutterstock.com)
Commenting on a piece I wrote for American Greatness, my colleague Mike Rappaport agrees with me in certain respects but chides me for being a proponent of "the old originalism," which he regards as "false," "problematic," and "not real originalism." Rappaport [1] considers himself a "new originalist," which means that he would follow the original meaning of the Constitution wherever it takes him, even if doing so would create more opportunities for "willful" (or non-originalist) judges to make up rights (as they often do). I accept Rappaport's criticism in the spirit in which was given, and concede that my piece cited the "privileges or immunities" clause of the 14th Amendment, moribund since the Slaughter-House Cases (1873), as a provision that the Supreme Court should not resuscitate, as many legal scholars now advocate, in part because of the jurisprudential mischief it would likely inspire.
Does that make me a "faux" originalist? I confess to favor leaving a 150-year old precedent in place, despite considerable sentiment that it was wrongly decided—although critics differ greatly in their reasoning—but contend that my position is consistent with "real" originalism. My explanation follows a brief digression on the current state of originalism.
There are many flavors of "originalism": new, old, original intent, original public meaning, original methods, "faint-hearted," "living," "constructionist," libertarian, "rule originalism," and more all the time. The various theories of originalism are based on normative arguments, popular sovereignty, super-majoritarianism, and utilitarian (consequentialist) appeals, presumptions of liberty, and other bases outlined in Rappaport's 2013 book Originalism and the Good Constitution (co-authored with John McGinnis). Theorizing about constitutional law—even the narrower field of originalism—has become a cottage industry in the legal academy, and the subject has spawned a staggering number of books, articles, symposia, academic centers, and blog posts. Originalists have developed their own jargon, with arcane terms such as "construction zones," "interpretation zones," and "legal turns."
I have described this din as "a veritable Tower of Babel—a constitutional cacophony–at times." Creative theories abound, and new "insights" are discovered with alarming frequency. Just keeping abreast of the burgeoning scholarly literature is a full-time job. To be candid, as a non-academic I monitor these developments—some of which border on hair-splitting, churning, or "law office history"—from afar. The spate of inventive theorizing in the name of originalism—increasingly esoteric and open-ended—reminds me of the torrent of "non-interpretive" scholarship that flowed from the law schools in the 1970s and 80s. In other words, originalism—now in iteration 3.0 according to some observers—is the new sandbox for the legal academy: fodder for the tenure mill.
McGinnis has observed that "sometimes there seem to be as many theories of the [Fourteenth Amendment] as there are theorists," and the multiplicity of viewpoints only grows larger when focusing on the Constitution as a whole. Self-described "originalists" can reach completely divergent conclusions regarding the Constitution, while purporting to follow the same methodology! Some scholars have even defended the activist abomination of Obergefell on "originalist" grounds. As I have stated, "If the 'new' originalism is so malleable that it can be pounded into the shape of any desired result, it is not a useful guide for constitutional decision-making."
I use the term "originalism" more broadly than the specialists to mean taking the Constitution seriously as a legal text—and interpreting it accordingly. When the text is simply unclear, the judge should not guess at its meaning. If this makes me a "faint-hearted" originalist (as Justice Scalia described himself), or an "old" originalist (like Robert Bork), so be it.
In their book, Rappaport and McGinnis develop a "normatively optimal approach to precedent under originalism," pursuant to which "there must be strong countervailing benefits to justify to following nonoriginalist precedent." I, in contrast, take a looser, fusionist approach to stare decisis, partly formalistic, partly pragmatic, and partly originalist. The Constitution has been around for over 230 years, and during that time the ever-shifting members of the Supreme Court have issued many thousands of decisions, purporting to act as neutral arbiters of the law. Predictability and stability—as well as the Court's institutional credibility—require that past decisions be accorded some weight. A judicial system would be chaotic and unworkable if every issue of constitutional interpretation—starting with the threshold question of judicial review—began with a clean slate. The public would justifiably question the moral authority of nine unelected judges whose edicts shifted constantly with the political composition of the Court.
Back to the Slaughter-House Cases. Many scholars criticize the decision (or at least the majority's reasoning), but few quarrel with the result. A group of butchers in the New Orleans area objected to an 1869 Louisiana state law regulating the operation of slaughter-houses, an activity that produces large quantities of animal viscera, blood, waste, and carcasses, capable of fouling drinking water and leading to disease outbreaks, such as cholera (especially in a pre-antibiotic era). The plaintiffs in the Slaughter-House Cases had long conducted their operations along the banks of the Mississippi River, upstream of the city, polluting the residents' water supply. Pursuant to state law, the slaughter-house operations were moved downstream and placed under the exclusive control of a state-chartered corporation. The affected butchers, none of whom were African-American (let alone freed slaves), claimed that the restrictions violated their rights under the recently-enacted 13th and 14th Amendments.
By a 5 to 4 vote, the Court sensibly rejected these claims. There was no "involuntary servitude," of course; in the pre-Lochner era, there was no substantive due process right to engage in economic activity; and the Court construed "equal protection" to limit only race discrimination. Unwilling to encroach upon the state's police power without any clear textual guidance, the Court read the "privileges or immunities" clause narrowly to avoid becoming "a perpetual censor upon all legislation of the states." Limiting "privileges or immunities" to the rights of U.S. citizenship effectively rendered the privileges or immunities clause meaningless, but the alternative—urged by Justice Stephen Field for the four dissenters—was to unleash indeterminate "natural and inalienable rights."
Some scholars, such as Bork, Lino Graglia [2], Michael Stokes Paulsen [3], and Michigan Chief Justice Stephen Markman, support the majority's ruling, while others quibble with the limitation of the privileges or immunities clause to federal rights. In Government by Judiciary (1977), Raoul Berger disputed the majority's reasoning, even as he concluded that the 14th Amendment was intended only to validate the Civil Rights Act of 1866. Kurt Lash concludes that the 39th Congress intended to incorporate the first eight amendments of the Bill of Rights in the privileges or immunities clause—but not to open the Pandora's Box of "unenumerated rights."
There are as many scholarly positions regarding the Slaughter-House Cases [4] as there are theories about Amelia Earhart's disappearance or who kidnapped the Lindbergh baby. Few scholars, however, aside from libertarian proponents of "judicial engagement," embrace the radical position taken by the dissenters. Because the Bill of Rights have been incorporated under the due process clause, the historical "correctness" of the Slaughter-House Cases is effectively moot.
Accordingly, my position that the Slaughter-House Cases should be left alone is based on a combination of reasons: I agree with Bork, et al. that the majority was correct, or at least that the meaning of "privileges or immunities" is unclear enough to warrant a restrained interpretation; I strongly disagree with the notion of unenumerated rights (not because it will lead to mischief, but because it is mischief); and, at this point, the precedent is so old and well-established (even if not universally accepted) that, pursuant to stare decisis, it would undermine public confidence in the Court to overrule it. If that disqualifies me as a "new originalist," so be it.
The original goal of originalism, it must be remembered, was to restore constitutional law to the task of interpreting the Constitution. As Bork famously remarked in 1982, "The truth is that the judge who looks outside the Constitution always looks inside himself and nowhere else." [5] Hewing to the constitutional text necessarily grounds—or "constrains"—judges, which is the whole point of having a written constitution. It is a fallacy to assume that "constraint" is incompatible with originalism.

"The public would justifiably question the moral authority of nine unelected judges whose edicts shifted constantly with the political composition of the Court."
I think that train left the station 70 years ago and more. Does anyone except John Roberts think the Supreme Court has any moral authority at all?
I've been looking for things in my state's old laws that might be called privileges and immunities created by the legislature. I found few in the old colonial laws. In the Bay Colony, I found:
"No man shall be beaten with above 40 stripes, nor shall any true gentleman, nor any man equall to a gentleman be punished with whipping, unles his crime be very shamefull, and his course of life vitious and profligate."
I also found laws that bestowed the privilege of trespassing on open meadows to cattle drovers while driving cattle to market and the privilege possessed by all inhabitants to fish on the great ponds and to fish and fowl between the high and low water marks along the coast.
These seem to be privilege that attache to the civil status of gentleman and citizen or resident.
In other laws, ministers of the gospel, gentlemen (again), deputies to the General Court and magistrates were exempted from being pressed into the militia or for public works. Other laws from time to time exempted ministers employed by established congregations and retired state civil servants from taxation.
These seems to be immunities.
For my money, things like these are what the privileges and immunity clause in the 14th Amendment is aimed at.
Finally, you are not an originalist if you would retain stare decisis in constitutional matters.
Mark Pulliam says
The SCOTUS has a higher public approval rating than Congress or the President. So just because you are cynical (perhaps for good reason), doesn't mean the public has lost faith in the Court. They believe the Wizard of Oz is real, not the man "behind the curtain." If the Court started willy-nilly overturning precedents every time the composition of the Court changed, the public would turn against the Court. Stare decisis can be massaged but not disregarded altogether, IMHO.
Speaking of the Necessary and Proper Clause and the varying interpretations, Michael Uhlmann, in a recent LLB forum essay argues that "Even if Lund's more exacting judicial scrutiny had been adopted decades ago, would a bench dominated by the likes of Earl Warren, William Brennan, or Ruth Bader Ginsburg have paid any attention to it whatsoever?"
What does it matter which of the now ever proliferating variations of originalism is endorsed, employed or embedded in Judicial interpretation / construction, if the likes of Sotomayor, Ginsburg, Willie Boy Douglas, Breyer etc are to do the 'explicating."? What unifying / unified theory of construction may withstand the ever-more clever discernments made by the likes of the above mentioned jurists? What theory, indeed, what constitutional text is not without ambiguity, intended or otherwise, that will not soon become fodder for those dedicated to propelling forward the inexorable march of History?
Mark and I disagree re: P&I. Perhaps, my view is predicated upon a hope that we may "re-ground" ourselves in our history (small "h") and in some manner resuscitate the concept of distinct State Police Powers. Mark is RIGHTLY concerned that P&I, improperly understood, will result in further arrogation of powers to the Black Robes who will again demonstrate their predilection for *divining* all manner of newly discovered fundamental rights.
This is a valid concern and one we ought not to dismiss quite so casually as do some. Consider the mayhem that P&I, given a modern Progressive understanding of the term, would engender. All rights, all mere preferences would soon assume the status of "inalienable" rights guaranteed by our constituent law (COTUS).
Some may scoff at this supposition. Really, did anyone believe forty years ago that one could be compelled to share a restroom with a person of questionable gender, etc?
In advocating for the continued demise of P&I, Mark views stare decisis as a decisive tool in the jurists toolkit, originalist and non-originalist. To assert that supporting stare decisis per se is "NON-originalist" is both wrong and obscures / denies the use of the tool, stare decisis, in constraining the Progressive Jurists, the fantasists to my mind, and prevents them from unilaterally creating new law. Consider what P&I could become in the minds of Ginsburg, Sotomayor should they effectively resuscitate P&I and RE-shape in from its historical meaning and limitations into a modern version of P&I. Goodness, how long before every US citizen would be entitled to the Petroleum Benefits afforded by Alaska to its citizens, or every student would be entitled to free tuition if one state offered such a privilege? (Exaggerated, just a bit).
It strikes me that there is not "one Ring to rule them all", there is not one overarching theory of construction, etc that will cover any and all ambiguities / contingencies in COTUS. Such a Ring should in any case be cast into the Fires of Mordor given the havoc it would soon create.
What strikes me is that, as in the Legislative and the Executive, the strength of the Branch, its adherence to constitutional expectations is to be both found (or not) and assured (or not) be reference to the character and intelligence of those occupying the positions of delegated authority.
All the rest is an exercise in academic posturing.
"Goodness, how long before every US citizen would be entitled to the Petroleum Benefits afforded by Alaska to its citizens, or every student would be entitled to free tuition if one state offered such a privilege? "
In case you are mis-understanding me, if Alaska attempted to deprive a resident who was not a native born Alaskan an oil check, that would violate the P&I clause. But someone who was not a resident of Alaska would never be considered to be entitled to an oil check. The in-state tuition problem probably should be resolved in favor of an out of the state plaintiff.
My impression is that the reference to P&I in 14th A. should be considered boiler-plate picked up from the P&I clause in Art. IV, § 2.
In any event, privileges and immunities clearly suggests privileges and immunities created by state legislation. Mentioning privileges and immunities in the same breath as natural law or fundamental rights is simply bizarre.
Gabe, reading you comment again it struck me that those virtue signaling state ad local laws about set-asides and special treatment for specific groups or identities may be vulnerable to a P&I attack from those who are not the intended beneficiaries.
EK:
Yep – AND that would be an unexpected benefit to a resuscitation of P&I (properly and historically understood).
But let me reiterate, I fully understand and sympathize with Pulliam's concerns on P&I and the opportunity for mischief this may afford the Black Robes.
Heck throw a modern doctrine of P&I in with Footnote Four (+) and give it to a bunch of Ginsburgs, Breyers, sotomayors, etc and watch what happens. The Progressive Church Triumphant!!!
Actually, as of last I checked, alaska does 'deprive" those residents who do not meet certain alaska citizenship requirements.
As for me< i have no problem with "in-state tuition" benefits for State citizens, so long as all state citizens may have it. This is simply a positive right or privilege attendant upon state citizenship.
As for P&I vs fundamental rights, AGREED. It is perhaps the difference between "inalienable" and "alienable" alluded to in James Rogers recent essay.
Even Tocqueville (see Ancien Regime & Revolution) recognizes that a) P&I exists and that they are a benefit of positive law and c) may vary from "[E]state to [E]state.
gdp says
Of course, unenumerated rights are those having been determined according to the strictures of Common Law and its emphasis on custom and habit from time immemorial. As such, contract and property go back to Genesis, even though pervasive or universal practice beyond primitive dimension are not the norm until the modern era. Indeed, the reaction of modernism with its tilt toward statism and administration against the proliferation of property and contract are at the heart of a reticence to restore the healthy vitality of Constitutional process, which not only works through structure and right, but is sustained by them, the primary purpose of the Constitutions being the structural protection of the exercise of right. Privilege and immunity, as distinguished from right, relate to state action affording advantage in view of public necessity, which, despite their particularity, demand an equal protection of their own. By dispensing with privilege and immunity, right has been correspondingly diluted to a creation of the state, which accords with the 19th Century German ideology infecting our polity that the state precedes the Constitution in the creation of right, compounding the wrong of community preceding the individual in human relations. Time to restore our jurisprudence of 'liberty', corresponding to the 'liberty' of our Common Law, and there to proper Constitutional separations to enable the exercise of right.

Czech designer reimagines first-gen Audi R8 as new version of Skoda's 130 RS
This is what happens when you cross-breed an Audi R8 with a 1970s rear-wheel-drive Skoda. Internet, this is the R200 Non Fiction.
It's the brainchild of award-winning designer and Skoda-enthusiast Petr Novague, who wanted to celebrate the 40th anniversary of Skoda's most successful racing car, the 130 RS.
Designed by Novague to be showcased at the DOX Centre for Contemporary Art in Prague, the - err - striking body was built by Metal Hoffman, who also manufacture parts for the likes of Volvo and Volkswagen.
Underneath, it's the first-generation R8 chassis and drivetrain, and perhaps one of the sweetest R8 setups, namely, that 414bhp 4.2 litre V8 engine and manual gearbox. There's no performance detail on offer, but if that new body hasn't piled on the weight, expect something suitably brisk.
Ah yes, the body. In the 18 months it took to create, the makers say they tried to blend the original body with the "iconic silhouette" of the 130 RS.
"The Skoda 130 RS is an automobile one need not write or talk about, or put on a pedestal as something legendary," say Novague and Hoffman. "It simply is a true Czechoslovak legend, and its choice as the starting point for our first car was a natural one."
Twenty four R200s will reportedly go into production in January next year, with an estimated price tag of around £180,000; about twice as much as the current base R8. Worth the money?

Desert locusts Schistocerca gregaria (Acrididae: Orthoptera) do not lay eggs in old sand: Why?
Schistocerca gregaria sometimes refuse to lay eggs into the "old sand" that is kept in their cages for several days. We investigated why they rejected the old sand for oviposition. Locusts exclusively laid eggs into new sand when presented together with old sand, indicating that the old sand contained an oviposition-inhibiting (OI) factor. We exami...
RNAi-mediated knockdown of SPOOK reduces ecdysteroid titers and causes precocious metamorphosis in the desert locust Schistocerca gregaria
The Halloween gene SPOOK (SPO) is involved in the production of the active metabolite of ecdysteroid, 20-hydroxyecdysone (20E), in insects. A previous study showed that RNAi-mediated knockdown of SPO in Schistocerca gregaria last instar nymphs markedly reduced the hemolymph 20E titer, but did not affect metamorphosis. In the present study, the effe...
