Undocumented immigrants living locally face fears of deportation

Article Body:
Residents living in the Eugene area said Wednesday that they are nervous after Tuesday's announcement that federal immigration authorities will begin aggressively locating, arresting and deporting people who are in the country illegally, regardless of whether they're otherwise law-abiding.
Rose Richeson, a U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement public affairs officer for the Pacific Northwest, said Wednesday that ICE agents no longer will make deportation exceptions for any "class or category of removable aliens."
"All of those in violation of immigration law may be subject to immigration arrest, detention and — if found removable by final order — removed from the United States," Richeson said.
A final order is a final judgement made by a judge.
The memorandum, Richeson said, makes it clear that ICE will prioritize the deportation of illegal immigrants who have been convicted of a crime. Richeson also said that, in compliance with the Tuesday memos, ICE would conduct "targeted enforcement operations and allocate resources to work in jurisdictions with violent crime tied to gang activities."
Documents released Tuesday by the Department of Homeland Security outlined what policies and practices the Trump administration intends to implement in the coming months to combat illegal immigration.
The practices include enlisting local police officers to enforce immigration laws; establishing new detention facilities; publicizing crimes by undocumented immigrants; stripping such immigrants of privacy protections; discouraging asylum seekers; and immediately hiring at least 5,000 border patrol agents as well as 10,000 new ICE agents. The Trump administration has not announced how those new hires will be funded.
One of the memorandums directs the appropriate agencies to begin planning, designing, constructing and maintaining a wall along the U.S.-Mexico border, complete with lighting, technology and sensors.
Despite Trump's detailed implementation plans laid out Tuesday, local and state law enforcement officials said Wednesday that they had no intention of acting as ICE agents.
"The federal government has no authority to tell us to enforce immigration laws," Oregon State Police Capt. Bill Fugate said. "In general, we can't just enforce federal laws; we enforce state laws. We won't be delegating our resources to enforcing immigration laws."
Fugate pointed to a 2013 state law that prevents local and state law enforcement from using state money to locate people living in Oregon who are not U.S. citizens.
ORS 181.850 states: "No law enforcement agency of the State of Oregon or of any political subdivision of the state shall use agency moneys, equipment or personnel for the purpose of detecting or apprehending persons whose only violation of law is that they are persons of foreign citizenship present in the United States in violation of federal immigration laws."
Eugene Police Chief Pete Kerns echoed Fugate's comments and cited the same law.
Earlier this month, Gov. Kate Brown signed an executive order of her own designed to bolster protections in Oregon against deportation and discrimination of people who immigrated to the country without authorization.
Brown's executive order bans state agencies from helping federal immigration officials find or arrest illegal immigrants. That would expand Oregon's 1987 "sanctuary state" law, which already prevents any state or local law enforcement agency from doing so. The order also would explicitly prohibit state agencies from discriminating against illegal immigrants, unless existing state or federal law requires them to do so.
Brown's executive order would apply to agencies such as the Department of Human Services, which administers Oregon's safety net social service programs, as well as the Department of Education and the Department of Transportation.
Brown said at the time that she was concerned about news reports of plainclothes federal immigration officers making arrests and appearing to monitor people at the Multnomah County courthouse in Portland.
She acknowledged that she hasn't heard of any state agency receiving requests from federal immigration officers for state assistance in implementing deportation efforts. Brown said her order primarily is a preventive measure.
"I want our agencies to understand that folks will not be targeted based on their immigration status," she said.
Brown's office did not return calls Wednesday seeking comment about stepped-up border security, immigration enforcement and deportations.
Deportations have taken place across the nation for years, including during the Obama administration, when 2.4 million people were deported from fiscal year 2009 to 2014, including a record 435,000 in 2013, according to DHS data.
The population of unauthorized immigrants living in Oregon is unclear. Census data indicate that about 130,000 undocumented residents lived in Oregon in 2014, according to the most recent Pew Research Center data.
Advocates of a new state law dubbed by supporters as "Cover All Kids," which would extend government-funded health insurance in Oregon to many unauthorized immigrant children, estimate that about 17,900 unauthorized immigrants younger than age 19 live in the state.
But Lane County immigrant rights advocates and organizations said Wednesday that the Trump administration is using fear and intimidation tactics in its fight against illegal immigration.
David Sáez, executive director of Centro Latino Americano, said Wednesday that those tactics are working. Centro Latino Americano is a bilingual, multicultural agency that serves Latino families in Lane County.
Sáez said fear among some undocumented members of the community, as well as family members of those populations, grows with each new memorandum or executive order issued by the Trump administration or the president himself.
"There are people who are keeping their children home from school and who aren't going to work because they're scared," Sáez said. "Being a safe community is critical. … We need to make sure our schools, our city, our county and our state are creating safe environments that allow people to go to work, to school, to get their groceries without feeling afraid."
The new enforcement policies put into practice language that Trump used on the campaign trail, vastly expanding the definition of "criminal aliens" and warning that such unauthorized immigrants "routinely victimize Americans," disregard the "rule of law and pose a threat" to people across the United States.
Despite those assertions in the new documents, research based on census data shows that there are lower levels of crime among immigrants than among native-born Americans.
Sáez alleges that much of the language presented in orders and memorandums from the Trump administration directly contradict the U.S. Constitution, which in a way can protect those who are prepared.
"How these documents were worded and how they square with the Constitution and the rights people have regardless of their status," Sáez said. "A lot of what's in those memos is contradictory to the law of the land, and I'm hopeful that we can challenge them."
To prepare for the situation some Oregonians could face, Sáez said he and his colleagues at Centro Latino Americano have been holding workshops to provide guidance for immigrants in case ICE agents knock at their door.
"We're helping families put together emergency preparedness kits so that if there's a family member deported or detained, that there's a plan of what will happen to kids and other family members," he said.
Examples of those preparations included making extra car and house keys, gathering important documents and informing families of their rights.
Juan Carlos Valle, vice president and council treasurer of the League of United Latin American Citizens in Lane County, said Wednesday that LULAC also will be helping families prepare for what could happen.
"This is what's left for us to do," Valle said. "We need to inform our families of their rights and tell them not to get in trouble, because at this point they'll (federal immigration agents) use any excuse to arrest them. We have to be the ones taking this step. They have to know we have their backs and we'll speak up. This is my responsibility."

TIPS FOR THOSE WORRIED ABOUT DEPORTATION
Don't open the door, but be calm. You have rights.
Ask what they are there for, and ask for an interpreter if you need one.
If they ask to enter, ask if they have a warrant signed by a judge; if so, ask to see it through a window or slipped under the door.
If they do not have a warrant signed by a judge, you may refuse to let them in. Ask them to leave any information at your door.
If they force their way in, don't resist. Tell everyone in the residence to remain silent.
If you are arrested, remain silent and do not sign anything until you speak to a lawyer.
Follow driving laws and maintain a good criminal record. Younger generations should stay busy and in school, be respectful and avoid friends who might get in trouble.

Fashion + Serendipity: QotD - "You must know that this, too, shall pass"
Many moons ago I worked for a publishing organization whose newsroom had the best perk I have ever enjoyed: a nook of books we could help ourselves too. Most of these were advance review copies that were sent by publishing companies in hopes of having a review published. Occasionally I would browse, and, one day, Jorge Bucay's "Let me Tell you a Story" was one of those gems that caught my eye. And here I share with you one of the many stories Dr. Bucay shares with us via his sessions with his patient Demian.
As soon as I started talking, I realized I was racing, going a mile a minute. I felt euphoric. I was speaking to Jorge, giving him a rundown of all of the things I'd done that week.
As sometimes happened, I felt invincible: triumphant, in love with life. I was giving Tubs (his nickname for Jorge) my plans for the coming days and felt full of vim and vigor.
Tubs smiled happily, with a complicit air.
I got the feeling, as always, that my frame of mind was something he had shared, no matter what frame of mind that was. So sharing my joy with Jorge was just one more reason to be happy. Everything was coming up roses and I was full of ideas. If I'd have two lives to live, it wouldn't have given me enough time to do everything I had planned.
"Can I tell you a story?" he asked.
I must confess it was a struggle but I managed to stop talking.
Once upon a time these was a king who ruled a far-off land.
He was a good king, but he had a problem: this king had two personalities.
On some days, he'd rise exultant, euphoric, gleeful. From early in the morning, those days seemed marvelous. His palace gardens looked more beautiful. His servants, for some strange reason, became friendlier and more efficient.
At breakfast, he was convinced that in his kingdom they milled the best flour and grew the best fruit.
On those sort of days, the king lowered taxes, shared the wealth, granted favors and legislated for the peace and well-being of the elderly. On these sort of days, the king consented to all of the requests his friends and subjects made.
There were, however, other sort of days, too.
Those were black days. From early in the morning, he knew he'd have preferred to sleep in. But by the time he realized this, it was already too late and sleep had abandoned him.
No matter how he tried, he couldn't understand why his servants were in such bad moods; they didn't serve him well. The sun annoyed him more than the rain. His food wasn't hot enough and his coffee was cold. The mere idea of receiving visitors in his chamber made his head throb.
Fearful of both the present and the future, haunted by the mistakes of the past, on those days he enacted laws against his people and the most common word out of his mouth was ''no''.
Aware of the problems that these mood swings led to, the king gathered together all of the wise men, wizards and consultant in his kingdom and held a meeting.
"Gentlemen," he said, "all of you have to know about my mood swings. All of you have benefitted from my euphoria and suffered from my anger. But the one who suffers most is me, because every day I have to undo what I did when I saw things in another light.
"Gentlemen, I need you to work together to find a cure for me, be it spell or potion, that will keep me from being so absurdly optimistic that I'm unaware of the risks I run, and from getting so ridiculously pessimistic that I oppress and hurt those I love."
The wise men accepted the challenge, and for several weeks, they all worked on the king's problem. However, no alchemy, no spell, no magic herbs were able to provide a solution to the matter at hand.
So the advisors appeared before the king and confessed their failure.
That night the king wept.
The following morning, a strange visitor requested an audience. He was a mysterious man with dark skin, dressed in a worn tunic that had at one time been white.
"Your Majesty," said the man, bowing, "where I come from, I have heard of your woes and your sorrow. I have come to offer you the solution."
And bowing his head, he approached the king with a little leather box.
The king, both surprised and hopeful, opened it and looked inside. And all that was there was a silver ring.
"Thank you," the king said enthusiastically. "Is it a magic ring?"
"Indeed it is," replied the traveller, "but it only works its magic if you wear it on your finger. Every morning, as soon as you rise, you must read the ring's inscription, and remember those words each time you see the ring on your finger."
"You must know that this, too, shall pass"
It may be the fact I stumbled upon this lovely collection of stories after the Boston bombing which made me look back at this story after reflecting on this week's tragedies. But, the thing is, whether the king of this story represents the world, which every day appears to be different, or your boss, friend, lover or even yourself, this is a gentle reminder to ground ourselves in today and remember everything is passing.
Much love to all those hurting around the world.

The comments are getting completely out of hand. Once again, please do not call people names. Stay on topic. I'm simply snipping whole comments now, because I do not have time to edit our people's poor behaviour.
Are things really getting worse or are you moderating more? Are you more concerned as your work and effort become more involved and well known? No disrespect intended. Just curious.
Trolls with theire stupid comments bring out the worst in people. Best just to ignore them.
I don't prefer the definition of trolling above. It seems too restrictive and not so subtle. This comment and your comment could possibly fall under the trolling category.
The question is a fair one. I don't know. I've always tried to delete namecalling and rudeness. When the site is busy things can quickly get out of hand.
Speaking of name calling, where did we get to on "deniers" etc? Are we ok calling ecoloonies ecoloonies? How about calling them scammers instead?
Sorry to be a bit school-marmish here, but we really should heed the good bishop's call for civility.
It would be a huge shame if rudeness were to increase his workload to such an extent that he were to follow Jeff Id. I'm sure we don't want to see this blog close, same as tAV, just because we think manners don't matter on a blog.
Btw - if that were to happen, rest assured that I'll personally haunt the guilty parties and turn their sleep into living nightmares!!!!
If the argument is sound there is no need for name calling, if its a troll that is undertaking Seagull management then ignore it.
On a subject as important as this i think derogatory terms often do apply to the proponents of propaganda that could harm the nation, but we should always give deference to the bishop's requests.
"It's Burns Night. I live in rural Scotland. Behave yourselves, as I personally shall be quaffing inadvisable amounts of high-grade whisky, and smaller amounts of even more inadvisable parts of an animal."
Just wait and see his editorial line tomorrow morning as well. I suspect that fools will not find they are suffered gladly. Until he perks up with a bit of Irn Bru anyway.
I agree. Name calling and rudeness are unnecessary and unhelpful. I'll do what I can to comply.
The 100,000 litres of water per Haggis should dilute the fire water.
Cmdocker - If you have a freshly shot young one then it doesn't need as much hydration. It's the old leathery ones which you really have to boil like that.
I've almost given up on your blog, Your Grace. Very occasionally, you're still useful as a source of links to things that are happening elsewhere but your own content has become witless, bitter, self-promoting and stuck in the past. The comments on your blog are even worse. Ignorance and ignorant tribalism now dominate. Your blog has (like WUWT before it) become a moron-magnet, a tedious suburb of Delingpolia.
Only one thing can save you now: a Marshall Plan.
If you want to be a player again, what you need is more Fun and less Whinging; more Funny and less Earnest; more Ironic and less Literal; etc.
Left the pub early today lad. Should have stayed your usual time and just had a good nap.
I must congratulate the good Bishop on being at the head of the CCC notification parade.
I signed up to see if there were any other useful sites I was missing and all I keep getting is Bishop Hill!!
Think I will be unsubscribing - the good sites obviously speak for themselves!
Here you go, Vinny, it's "control", and it runs through CAGW lobbyists like Blackpool through rock. Now do as the good Bishop says, and cut the abuse, or go away.
It's Paul Nurse's birthday today. There's not a lot of people as knows that.
My post said that Sissons confirmed what we all suspected about Harrabin being pressured by green activists and that BBC editorial policy was being set over dinner tables in Hampstead - again as we all suspected.
I see absolutely NOTHING wrong with those comments. There was no foul language, personal abuse or derogatory comments of any kind - even about Harrabin.
My Phil don't snip people's comments, Bishop bloody Hill. 'e just peer reviews 'em. Heh, heh, heh.
Without the original text, I can't respond to you here. I have had to snip more comments tonight than I have done in the previous six years of this blog, so it's possible I cut the wrong comment or something. If so, apologies.
I suppose that there are some persistent offenders with multiple IDs - it's certainly the case on other blogs and I think it's not unreasonable to collect their spewings and source IP addresses for the most egregious repeat offenders - to at least make them use a proxy or something and then flag that against the user ID?
Pollution of blog comments by folk looking to deny reasonable debate or simply determined to annoy to the point of distraction should be resisted - A wall of shame ? A rating system?
It might be that if it gets worse, the onerous task and defeat of a membership system might have to be applied, which would be a real shame - some folk have already walked away. It's a clear aim for some of the trolls.
This is the Bishop's site. We join in here according to his rules and even his whims. Anything he chooses to do on his site cannot be out of order (IM not so HO).
Like most of us who are human, the Bishop can make mistakes.
God love you for doing the difficult and thankless (at least among the quality) task of shedding some light into the ecological tyranny's darkness.
I have read, and will continue to read you for your (gentle) sarcasm and good sense on the issues and the people discussing them.
For my part, I find you very readable and also very pertinent on these issues.
Your are a beacon of truth in a (mostly) dark night of creeping government nannyism and distortion of science to justify stealing our freedoms and our prosperity.
I am sure that your work is difficult and seems overwhelming at times. It is very important. Few could do it as well. Keep fighting the good fight. Thank you!
Agree Andrew, there is no need for using personally abusive language, or names, in a discussion. I have a theory that people who behave like that are just like those who gesticulate/shout/blow horns at people from cars, it's a personality type. They behave like that because if they had enough courage they'd do that all the time to people they disagree with in face to face situations. The safety of the car or the blog post lets them live their fantasy as tough guys/gals who will insult people face to face. The missing link for me is why anyone would want to insult anyone else at all rather then deal with the issues.
Bish, as Winnie endlessly reminded others, KBO!
Don't take the criticisms too much to heart. Wounded animals, when cornered are vicious brutes.
You're clearly under attack at the moment. The pressure got to Jeff and there's blood in the water thats attracting the sharks!
Don't hesitate to use the blue-pencil. If you make the odd blue-on-blue then shrug your shoulders and KBO.
The ones who experience friendly-fire are more than grateful for the positive services you have rendered in the past and look forward to the future. Those that don't see it that way have plenty of other blogs to voice their opinions.
When three soldiers from the Royal Anglians were killed in Afghanistan by a mis-directed bomb a few years ago, the entire battlegroup thanked the USAF for the lives that they had saved and forgave them for a human mistake.
KBO Bishop. If they use words unsuitable to a family audience then kill the entire comment. If they attempt to hijack your thread then teach them that this is not allowed. You draw the line in the sand; they cross it and they have no voice on your forum.
It won't be easy to do at first. You are, at heart, a libertarian and censorship is not your default position.
Harden your heart. It will get easier and your continued presence is essential for some time yet!
Bishop - If the comments of "Vinny Burgoo" above are typical of the sort of thing you are talking about in your original post, I'm not surprised you are adopting a "slash and burn" policy with some comments. To enter someone's blog and immediately call the host "witless, bitter, self-promoting and stuck in the past" is the height of boorishness, the equivalent of entering another man's home in a foreign country and immediately insulting the host. This was a point Willis Eschenbach tried (unsuccessfully) to impress on a particularly obnoxious "sustainable energy law" professor who entered the "Open letter to Dr Trenberth" thread at WUWT with the comment "What a dishonest post." Needless to say, the lawyer paid no heed, merely varying his insult to "What an intellectually dishonest post" until after the third unsuccessful attempt to show him the error of his ways, Willis let him have it with both barrels. It was a memorable exchange.
As for name-calling, I dislike "Warmer" or "warmista" for AGW supporters, principally because it's imprecise and misleading. After all, few of us sceptics are "coolers" or "coolistas" since most of us agree that the earth is warming, and has been since we emerged from the Little Ice Age.
I love this site and it's always my first port of call each day. I don't want to see His Grace's time wasted on moderation. Is it not time to enlist the help of one or two trusted posters and let them take some of the load where such moderation is necessary? It seems to work well for WUWT.
I'm hoping that this is just a blip caused by all the news yesterday.
I bought your book some time ago and am presently reading it for a second time.
I enjoy your site immensely and read it each day, together with CA, WUWT and until very recently the Air Vent as well.
I join your other well wishers.
I sense that the tide is turning.
The scientific evidence supporting the NUL hypothese is rapidly mounting.
The climate cycle may also be turning - we will know as the year progresses.
There are cracks in the MSM and the political scene (but alas, not yet in Australia).
The True Believers, as I feel they should be called, are getting quite desperate.
You can see that in their arguements, which are now becoming absurd.
So some are taking desperate action.
So you are under attack as never before.
Let me give you some advice from a very old man.
If you are feeling the strees, slow down.
Take some time off to regroup if necessary.
Don't soldier on until you crash.
If necessary get a friend or associate to run things for a while.
It will be different but we will stick by you.
You are important to us and to the cause of truth, honour and science.
I love your blog. It is absolutely not "stuck in the past". I enjoy the focus and the format. I read your book and was amazed at how interesting and meticulous it was. Same goes for your GWPF report.
All the negative comments could be viewed as a good sign. Negative attention is better than no attention. Activity is good. You need us and we need you. It's unfortunate that you need to waste time and energy on negative comments, but it also speaks to your success.
Keep up the good work and stay focused.
Seems I missed all the fun.
Ah, BBD, and you won't see it again in a million years, mate! There is no recording and no replay button on this.
OK. To re-cap the events.
Yesterday, on the eve of Australia Day (ahem!), the UK climate media had a day of convulsions and BH too suffered as a result.
From the colonies and from across the pond, a lot of dust could be seen rising from where the British Isles lie. The reason for that was the release of a doco and a parliamentary report in quick succession that caused the temperatures to quickly rise and fall on both sides.
BH was affected by flooding, and its main page ran like a mighty river. Trolls came in barging around the place like loose shipping containers. Emergency measures had to be taken so that propriety and dignity could be saved. Recovery is expected to take some time. Lessons shall be learned. Etcetera.
Overall it was a bad performance all round. From our host to our commenters to our trolls, nobody were themselves yesterday... or rather nobody who logs in from the UK. There, it was the worst of times.
To me, the only memorable comments came from Lord Beaverbrook, who related how he watched the Horizon doco with his young family: they compared the people that appeared to characters in Muppet show and had a jolly good time apparently.
Thanks for the review. After a little thought I have decided that I am glad business took me elsewhere for the last few days. I might have got sucked in (me and my temper) and not exactly covered myself in glory either.
I'm sorry Alan but I stick by my comment that removing my post was "absolutely out of order". Since I started reading this blog and commenting on the threads (sometimes anyway), my posts have ALWAYS been civil and polite - even though I have to sometimes restrain my natural impulses. If there is a way to check this then please feel free to do so.
Yesterdays comment was little more than three sentences on the Sissons DM article. Unlike other comments I saw and some which are still up, mine was in no way offensive. So thats cleared that.
This blog invites comments, and from these there is much information shared by all. Until certain individuals (see - I dont even call them Trolls !!) started posting their vitriol there had been no problems. If my comment had in any way broken rules then fine take it down. But as I said above in NO WAY could any of the three sentences by classified as anything but innoccous. Now, Bishop said he may have made a mistake as he was trying to edit many posts - fair enough I except this explanation. However if you are saying that its Ok to take down any post, even if its on topic, non-inflamatory, polite and civil, then I'm afraid it will make Bish look like the CiF brigade.
Mac suggest you try posting on CA, Steve McIntyre has his rules and foibles and snips accordingly, takes some getting used to be you get to know whats ok and not, its a private blog and the owner whether its Bish or S Mac can do as they please. Thems the rules so live with it.
Unfortunately BoFA you miss my point as did Alan Bates. If I had said something to the effect that Harrabin was a f****** T***, then fine snip away. But my first sentence said something like (from memory)..." The Sissons article in DM confirms what we have suspected in that Harrabin has been pressurised by the green lobby". The second comment was something to do with BBC editorial policy being formed around the dinner tables of Hampstead.
Now please dont tell me that those comments are offensive as the BBC and its bias towards the pro-AGW viewpoint has been debated on here many times, and whatsmore far worse comments on the Beeb, Harrabin and Black have passed without censure.
However as I pointed out Bish acknowledges that he was in snipping mode yesterday and some posts got the chop perhaps wrongly.
I don't remember reading any comments along those lines, so I guess I did mess up. Sorry about that.
I get your point. You didn't do anything wrong. Your snip was inadvertent. You're good. You got caught in the fray.
Ref. Vinny Burgoo's vitriolic comment, I've been a "moronic" reader here for quite a while, on a daily basis, and your measured rant and his bile have moved me to become one of the "moronic commenters" he refers to. Such as he unwittingly reveal that you're worthy of attention, and need slapping down - you're damaging their "cause". That's a sure sign of success if ever there was one.
BTW - many thanks for your "scoop" on the Met Office advice to government - writing to the Quarmby team was inspired.
I think they are trying a Jeff ID on you.


What if Maagy chose a different path?
The question implies that she has a choice. The circumstance of her wealth, power, and position in society dictates that some of her life choices have been taken away.
Maagy is a child of privilege. She is the Crown Princess destined to become the Queen during the course of her adolescent, hormone driven, coming of age in the seven books that define her existence. She has been pampered and preened from the moment of her birth to take her mother's crown and spoiled rotten by her over-indulgent father to compensate for her mother's absence. This has created an irascible brat who has no real friends and is only tacitly tolerated by the Avington Palace household staff. The station in life to which she was born and the environment in which she has been raised have taken away many of her choices.
The same can be said for individuals born into abject poverty. Lack of resources can certainly limit one's access to many opportunities afforded to the more affluent in society. However, whether blessed with good fortune or of meager means, our choices are endless. Wealth and power do not insure success. Meager means do not insure a life of struggle or lack of success. We hear daily stories of homeless teens who have persevered and achieved great academic success and who then are accepted to top-rated colleges. Their choices were to not accept NO for an answer; to not accept the limitations of poverty; to dedicate themselves to hard work. Rich or poor, success is all about the path one chooses.
Maagy has learned that the only way to be heard is to be loud. The best way to get what she wants immediately is to stomp her foot and demand it. Otherwise, she is seen and heard as a child with no importance; or at least, that's the way she feels. She has been channeled into a narrow corridor, in her tiny, immature mind, and her only choice forward is the path of bad behavior.
Maagy's duty to her kingdom is paramount. She must become the ruling monarch by her eighteenth birthday. However, while her job title is not up for debate, there are many decisions she can and does make freely along the way to get there, some of them not so wise. However limited we may consider our path forward, there are always decisions to be made; the most important of which is whether to forge ahead righteously or cheat our way to our goals. It's a dilemma that my impetuous princess struggles with throughout the series.
The question becomes could she choose a different path? Probably not. Maagy's destiny and in fact her existence were determined by mysterious forces of the Universe 500 years before her birth, but the choices she makes could smooth the path she walks. She could choose a way less cluttered with boulders were she not the Impetuous Princess.
When we first meet her in Just Maagy, she is just beginning her arduous journey toward adulthood. She has already learned that there is more than one way "to skin a cat", as the old saying goes (not that I in any way advocate this barbaric practice!). She has learned the fine arts of deception and manipulation. When those tactics fail, she resorts to foot-stomping. She is beginning to discovering her ability to explore her options; make decisions for herself. However, not all her choices work out so well. When she lies to Rudolpho about her age in the confection shop and causes a cascade of events that embarrass King Henry, she is left the bitter consequences of having to face both men and apologize. On the other hand, she is elated and proud of her actions when she stands up to Owanu Obuku at the Summit and when she defies her father's instructions and runs into a burning barn to save her beloved Cupid and several other horses from fiery death.
As Maagy begins to comprehend both the positive and negative consequences of her actions, she also begins to gain a sense of empowerment. While she stumbles on a few of those boulders in her path, for the first time in her life, she actually feels that she has some choices about how she will follow that road to its ultimate destination.
Then Maagy awakens on her sixteenth birthday to a pancake breakfast that King Henry has arranged. Life is good and can only get better, until it takes a sinister turn when he tells her to meet him at the door to the forbidden East Tower, a place she has always been terrified to enter. Over the course of the next few hours, Maagy's life as she knows it is turned upside down, as she learns of a mysterious history of sorcery and intrigue that was responsible for her mother's death. Worse yet, her idyllic impression of her father is shattered, as she learns that he has lied to her. She is thrown into a tailspin of anger, disappointment, confusion, and curiosity. Then she is shown the gargoyle-guarded crystal held captive in a wire cage. Henry tells her she must take hold of it, not knowing what might happen to his daughter. When she complies, she is swept up in a vision of ancient history with a convoluted message that becomes the key to her destiny.
Suddenly, her journey forward has become much more complicated. Once again, Maagy is put on a narrow path on which she has limited control over her choices, as she learns that she is the Chosen One. She is burdened with the responsibility of inheriting a gift of magic which she does not want but must use to eliminate a powerful, evil force.
Oddly, while Maagy's choices seem even more limited, the one choice she is determined to make might be the most important one of her life. Against her father's will, she becomes a Knight of the Realm; something no woman has ever done in 500 years of the order. The hallmark of Knighthood is honesty, one of Maagy's biggest moral dilemmas. Questionable decisions she has made in the past with regard to her interpretation of the truth come back to haunt her more than once while she is away at training and on her own. The very circumstances that have taken away her ability to choose her future have now set her on a path of constant choices; a road that forks this way and that and is fraught with even larger boulders. Her Faith Quest is the final test of her will to be knighted. Her climb up the steep and slippery rock face to find the mysterious fire breathing dragons of Leprechaun Peak is a series of life or death choices. Fortunately, she is successful in her venture. Later in the series, Maagy is presented certain facts that lead her to conclude that even her Faith Quest might not have been of her own choosing. After all, it was part of her destiny.
Each of us must take what we are given and choose our path forward. When one door closes, another must be forced open. We must set our goals higher than money or fame toward a greater goal of integrity, humility, and gratitude, as is the creed of knighthood. When Maagy struggles with her anger and realizes that it could be her undoing, she makes the decision to work toward self-control and calm thought. She learns to move without disturbing the feathers. As a Knight, she chooses to live a righteous life, even though her duty as a soldier creates a seemingly insurmountable paradox. Still, the wisdom from the ancients is that we always have choices and should "choose light over darkness".
So, if Maagy could choose a different path, would she? What if you could choose a different path, would you?

Objective: To evaluate the factors influencing final vision outcome after surgical repair of open globe injuries and to correlate the Ocular trauma score. Materials and Methods: Retrospective case analysis of patients with open globe injuries at a tertiary referral eye care centre in Singapore was performed. Pre-operative factors affecting final vision outcome in patients with open globe injury and correlation of ocular trauma score in our study with international ocular trauma scoring system was performed. Results: Case records of 172 eyes with open globe injury were analyzed. Mean age was 36. 67 years. Mean follow up was 12.26 m. Males were pre-dominantly affected. Initial visual acuity was ≥20/40, 20/50 < 20/200, 20/200- CF, HM- PL and NLP in 24 (14%), 39 (22.7%), 16 (9.3%), 66 (38.4%) and 27 (15.7%) eyes respectively. Final visual acuity was ≤20/40, 20/50 < 20/200, 20/200- 1/200, HM- PL and NLP in 76 (44.2%), 28 (16.3%), 11 (6.4%), 30 (17.4%) and 27 (15.7%) eyes respectively. Ocular trauma score in our study correlates with international ocular trauma scoring system. Conclusion: The present study showed pre-operative variables such as mode of injury, pre-operative visual acuity, traumatic cataract, hyphaema, relative afferent papillary defect, vitreous lossand vitreous hemorrhage to be adversely affecting the final vision outcome. Our study showed a good synchrony with international ocular trauma score (OTS) and based on this study we were able to validate application of OTS in Singapore population. Recognizing these factors can help the surgeon in evidence based counseling.

The Death Of Robert E Lee
Category History
Subcategory Historical Figures
Topic Robert E. Lee
The United States was in a war against itself and the nation was divided between the North and Southside. The Northern and Southern states had different thoughts and beliefs during this time, which was one of the main causes of the Civil War. This war was also known as the bloodiest four years of war in American history. The Civil War had started on April 12, 1861, and ended on April 9, 1865. The North wanted to change the economics of slavery and political control over it; which most of the southerners were not too fond of. One of the most historical and important figures of this time was Robert E Lee. Although he has served for the North's army before the war and was offered to serve as a general for Abraham Lincoln, he declined. Robert felt if he became a general for the Union, he was betraying the South, so he joined the South instead. He was a great general and fought many battles for the Confederate side.
Robert Edward Lee was born in Stratford, Virginia on January 19, 1807. The parents of Robert were Henry Lee III and Anne Hill Carter Lee, both were from rich and prestigious families. However, when Robert was around 2 years old his father Henry had lost most of their money to business deals. This lead to Henry being arrested and put in debtor's prison for a couple of years. When Henry was freed, he travelled to the West Indies and never came back to his family. The best option for Robert's future was to enter the military and join the army at West Point, Virginia as a teenager. Robert was assigned as an engineer and later became a lieutenant in the army. Robert E. Lee was then accepted into the United States Military Academy and gained second in his class with no demerits. At the academy, he spent around 4 years learning military education, then graduated in 1829. The Mexican American War came around in the 1840s; Robert was about to experience combat(Robert E Lee | Biography). For his efforts during this time, he was promoted to Colonel and was one of the best soldiers General Winfield Scott had seen.
In April 1861, Virginia seceded from the Union which made Robert leave them and join the Confederate side as a general(Robert E.Lee | History)As general he lead many battles such as the Battle of Antietam, Gettysburg, Appomattox, Cold Harbor, Cheat Mountain, Fredericksburg, the Wilderness, Chancellorsville, Spotsylvania, Bull runs, and the Seven Days Battle. Many of these he won, except for the battle of Gettysburg, Petersburg, and Appomattox. Even though the Confederates were almost always outnumbered during these battles, Robert was a brilliant general and managed to win most of them. Lee was nicknamed the "Grey Fox" because his uniform and horse were coloured grey, also he was smart as a fox. Robert was "devising a strategy that combined bold field manoeuvres and defensive earthworks that later led to some calling him 'King of Spades'", quoted Elizabeth Brown Pryor.
On April 6, during the Appomattox Campaign, the Confederates suffered a costly defeat at sailors creek which left them desperately short of men and supplies. With this situation, Lee had to abandon Richmond and decided to tell General Ulysses S. Grant he was going to surrender at a private home in Appomattox, Virginia. Before his surrender on April 9, 1865, Lee quoted to one of his soldiers,"I suppose there is nothing for me to do and see General Grant, and I would rather die a thousand deaths."Although Robert was fighting for the confederation and was considered a traitor to the U.S., Lincoln spared him. Instead of imprisoning him or facing execution, Lincoln took his land and money to make a cemetery and let him live his life. Years after the Civil war he became the president of the Washington College at Lexington. While not that big of a school during that time, Lee's self-goal was to teach the new generation the right path. He later on in his life regretted ever becoming a military leader and living without the trauma of the war. Decades after the war he was remembered as a heroic figure to Southerners and many monuments were made for his efforts. In September of 1870, Lee had a massive stroke and needed to stay home, but on October 12, he had sadly died in his bed surrounded by family members (Robert E. Lee | Biography).
The United States was indeed in a troubled time and needed to fix itself. The Civil War was the result of the problem, in which many people lost their lives fighting(Robert E.Lee | History). During this time there was a fearsome general named Robert E. Lee who arose to become known as one of America's greatest generals. From a young age, he was trained in the military army with not much money. Later on in his life, he would serve an important role in the Civil War as a Confederate general and lead many battles. He was a smart leader who was seen as a strategic master by his soldiers in battle, Robert put effort into every fight and used what he had learned(Micheal Korda). While he seemed to be outnumbered in troops by the Union side he somehow manages to manoeuvre around it and conquer. However, this does not mean he was a perfect general and won every battle he has been in. For example, the Appomattox campaign was one of the most important battles in the war but lost. This lead to his surrender at the Appomattox courthouse and retired as a general for the Confederate(Robert E.Lee | History). Robert became a teacher at a college and later died at his bed in October of 1870 due to a stroke. Many people still see him as one of the greatest generals to emerge and some believe he was fighting for the wrong cause.

Apple Inc. (NASDAQ:AAPL) looks set to release iPhone 6 with a 4.7 inch screen in September this year. Mass production for the iPhone displays will reportedly begin by May, however, giant 5.5-inch or 5.7-inch iPhone will feature a delayed release, according to Reuters. The three companies, making the displays of iPhone 6, are Japan Display Inc, Sharp Corp and South Korea's LG display co ltd. The screens of both the variants of iPhone 6 will be larger than the 4.0 inch panels of Apple's existing iPhone 5s and 5C models. The tech giant's fiercest rival Samsung Electronics Co. Ltd. (KRX:005935) stole a third of all customers, who upgraded their phones due to fascination towards bigger screen. Share value of Apple has languished below US$600 since November 2012, due to worries about Smartphone market saturation and a lack of innovative technology in its flagship products. A bigger screen iPhone will keep it on par with other top flagship phablets running on Android OS.
A report released last week from Japanese business newspaper Nikkei claims that iPhone 6 would be launched in two screen variants as early as September this year. However, the recent report from Reuters contradicts the claim by stating that only 4.7 inch screen iPhone 6 would be launched this fall while the release date of giant screen size Apple iPhone 6 is still unclear. Interestingly, the debate on iPhone 6 screen size is apparently far from over yet. Another Japanese magazine MacFan published an alleged drawing of 5.7 inch screen size phablet, purported as iPhone 6C. The drawing features flat, bezel-free device with rectangular shaped volume controls like those found in current iPhone 5C.
Apple has a history of working on multiple variants of iPhone simultaneously, but only the best one makes up to the market eventually. Besides, all recent leaked images and blue print of iPhone purport 4.7 inch screen display and not many sources are able to get hold of any information about 5.5 inch iPhone 6. Does that mean 5.5 inch iPhone 6 is just a another speculation, which may never come into existence ? Not really, a company like Apple can't afford to miss such an enormous opportunity specially when the size of opportunity windows is big enough and clearly visible.
Phablets To Control 25% of Smartphone Sales In 2014
Users usually drift towards large screen mobiles to make tasks, like browsing the web, streaming content, and gaming, more enjoyable. Despite their bulk and large size, the market for phablets devices is growing at a phenomenal rate. By taking the early introduction advantage of the first phablets device, Samsung grabbed the market with its Galaxy Note series. Other players including Sony, HTC and Nokia have already released products in the market to grab a sizeable share. According to Juniper research at least 20 million phablets devices were shipped in 2013 and the market is estimated to hit 120 million devices by 2018.
The report also predicts that big screen devices will find more takers in countries like South Korea and China. The demand for phablets is already high in countries like India, Brazil, and Russia. Samsung sold 10 million units of the original 5.3 inch Galaxy Note. Its successor the Galaxy Note 2, had a 5.5 inch screen which sold 30 million units. The Note 3 with a 5.7 inch screen sold more than 5 million units within a month of launch. The allure of a single device that can act with similar functionality to both smartphone and tablet has more appeal in regions where the disposable income is lower.
Another interesting finding from Delloite estimates that by considering 5 inch to 6.9 inch devices as phablets, shipments of phablets will represent 25% of all Smartphones sold in 2014. This works out to roughly 300 million units, almost twice the amount sold last year and 10 times the amount sold in 2012. The revenue works to about $ 125 Billion, with a $415 average selling price, which is 10% higher than for Smartphones as a whole. At least 2/3 of all phablets sold in 2013 will be 5.1 inches. Only less than 10% are likely to be 6 inches or larger. This clearly portrays that Phablet is going to play a bigger role in 2015 and 2016 when smartphone users would be looking beyond 5-inc screen.
Phablets are seen as leading choices for those who can't afford a gaming device in South Korea.The demand for big screen devices will perhaps be consumer driven, as it resembles an all in one device that combines the features of a smartphone, portable gaming device and tablet and PC. The biggest appeal for the tablet lies in the Asian market where languages such as Arabic, Hindi, Chinese and Korea are too complex for a small screen. Texting may be easier on the large screens and larger virtual keyboards of phablets.
Will A Large Screen iPhone Cement Apple's Dominance?
If the iPhone 6 is indeed a 4.7 inch smartphone, than Apple will have plenty of catching up to do with its competitors. The 90 million iPhone units, being produced by Foxconn, signals the company's intention to kick off iPhone sales as soon as possible. A smaller iPhone with 4.7 inch screen will placate its most die-hard fans while a large 5.5 inch screen tablet will give tough competition to any Android phablet. A large screen iPhone could bring back customers who previously abandoned it simply for its small screen, the larger screen iPhone Phablet would help Apple to place in the market where not many of players are exercising – at least for now. Whatever Apple decides to do with its flagship product, it needs to act fast, as competitors and shareholders alike, are increasing pressure on the company.

Oliver's Twist on These 'Terrifying Times'
By Jillian A. Berry Apr. 25, 2008
Ever since Briton John Oliver appeared as a correspondent on The Daily Show, I've wanted to see more of his work, and have hoped to some day be able to talk to him. Thanks to a Comedy Central special, I got to do both this past week. On Sunday, Mr. Oliver starred in his own one-hour stand-up special, "Terrifying Times," in which he discussed the scariness that is world politics. Instead of crude humor, Mr. Oliver made intelligent observations about serious situations put in a comedic light. A few days before "Terrifying Times" aired, I was able to talk to Mr. Oliver by phone about his transition into comedy, his work on The Daily Show, and his new comedy special. Below is an excerpt.
Dear Uncle, there's madness afoot
By Daniel Parker Feb. 17, 2012
Last week, The Tech sat down with Anna Kohler, Senior Lecturer in MIT's Musical and Theater Arts Department, who is directing MIT Dramashop's most recent production, My Uncle, a reimagination of Anton Chekhov's classic 1897 play Uncle Vanya, which explores the ideas of wasted life, frustrated desire, and alienation in the setting of a Russian country estate. But My Uncle transports us into the frame of a mental asylum: The MIT student actors are mental patients who, as part of a "Drama Therapy" session, put on a stunning version of Uncle Vanya where Chekhov's characters are played by two actors each and where the dramatic illusion is periodically interrupted by reminders of the hospital.

Capturing a temporary home
By Rachel Katz Nov. 26, 2013
I sat down with Nora Vrublevska in the Wiesner Art Gallery, walls lined with her black and white prints, to discuss the inception of her exhibit entitled Cambridge at Night. Vrublevska, a native Latvian, has been interested in photography for most of her life. When she was younger, she saved her lunch money to buy 35mm film and develop photos, but she says, "I didn't really know what I was doing; I was photographing at that time but I didn't get really serious until I came here."

Art via recycling
By Grace Young Dec. 10, 2013
Nearly every month since 2011 MIT has hosted a "Choose-to-Reuse" event in the Stata Center lobby, sponsored by the Department of Facilities, Sustainability@MIT, and Green. During the event, community members donate and trade unwanted items. The overarching goal is to promote a culture of recycling and reducing waste. This year they are giving the program an arts-spin by collaborating with sculptural artist Kyle Haines. Haines will repurpose items from Choose-to-Reuse, as well other items found at MIT, into MIT-themed sculptures. His final pieces will be displayed on campus during Earth Week this coming April. He will begin collecting goods at the next Choose-to-Reuse event this Friday. He caught up with The Tech to explain his motives behind the project and how art can relate to the MIT community.

By Denis Bozic Feb. 4, 2014
For some artists, moving to another location can be an insignificant part of their life, but for the English-born musician Jam Rostron, this decision was more than just switching her address. Rostron, more commonly known by her stage name PLANNINGTOROCK, is a Germany-based musician and producer who moved from UK's Bolton to Berlin at a young age and rediscovered herself. As an established persona in the alternative and underground scene, Rostron has been delivering some of the most unique and unusual music for the past few years.

The Tech talks to Steven Spielberg
By Ray Wang Oct. 22, 2015
Steven Spielberg is a man with great respect for history. Early in his four-decade career, his films were archetypes of Hollywood blockbusters — the modern adventure and sci-fi genres were built upon Close Encounters of the Third Kind, Raiders of the Lost Ark, and E.T. the Extra-Terrestrial, among his other works. He then sojourned into new territory, broaching humanistic themes in critically acclaimed historical dramas. His WWII-era portrayals of the struggles of two remarkable men in Schindler's List and Saving Private Ryan showed that he had the skill and tenacity to recreate pivotal events in history through cinema.
