Sheriff's department welcomes 1st female captain
CARLY Q. ROMALINO
COURIER-POST
WOODBURY – Kim Reichert has made Gloucester County history, taking the oath as the first female captain in the Sheriff's Department.
It's a "big deal for the county," admits Reichert, a 24-year law enforcement veteran.
In spite of the hype — a public swearing-in by freeholders last week and a proclamation commending her achievement — she remains humble.
"I was kind of surprised," said Reichert, 46, a West Deptford resident.
But she might be the only one.
"You want to surround yourself with good people, and she's good people," Sheriff Carmel Morina said.
While Reichert was the only applicant for the position, she scored high on the civil service test for the post, according to the sheriff. She replaces Capt. Ed Albright, who retired in December after 26 years in the department.
As the sheriff's department hierarchy shifted, others were promoted, including Carla Rouse, who became a sergeant Jan. 1.
"I think it's good for women in law enforcement," said Reichert, now the highest-ranking officer in the department who has not been elected or appointed.
She oversees 72 officers, including 12 women.
"We're definitely a minority in this field," Reichert noted.
She followed her brother Bill into law enforcement. He started as a West Deptford patrolman then moved to the Gloucester County Prosecutor's Office, where he retired as a lieutenant in 2006. He died a year later after a battle with ALS.
"My brother, he was my mentor. Somebody I looked up to my whole life," Reichert said.
She graduated from Glassboro State College in 1990 with a bachelor's degree in criminal justice. She finished the 10-week Camden County corrections academy court, then was hired as a corrections officer in the early 1990s to secure the county's Juvenile Detention Center. In 1996, she went to the Gloucester County police academy to become a sheriff's officer.
In working her way up, Reichert has taken on side projects within the department, including community outreach programs. She heads two programs focused on child safety — the bicycle helmet program and the child safety seat program.
For more than a decade, Reichert has taught the emergency vehicle operations course at Gloucester County Police Academy.
"She's good at it. She's a good driver," said John Fresne, the academy's range master.
In police training — another male-dominated area of law enforcement — Reichert is "able to connect with people," Fresne said.
"Most of the instructors here are male. We welcome the opportunity whenever we can get another female instructor on board," Fresne said. "She didn't make it to the rank of captain by not being able to talk to people or test well. It's a tough process to make it to where she is."
Morina said climbing the ranks takes "thinking outside the box."
"She goes far and beyond what we ask of her," he noted.
Gloucester County law enforcement — including the sheriff's and corrections departments — have undergone major changes since Morina came on board in 2007. The freeholder-authorized closing of the county jail had the biggest impact.
The sheriff's department now plays a major role in picking up arrestees from municipal police departments and transporting them to Salem County Correctional Facility for processing.
Reichert oversees the transportation bureau, and supervises security at the county's courthouses in Woodbury, Morina said.
"I don't get treated any different as a female," she said. "I'm lucky. I fit right in. We're all equals."


Immigrants and refugees have faced a lot of uncertainty with recent political upheaval. Certainly, families with children face especially high levels of anxiety, since they may fear, at worst, being separated, or at least, being targeted or questioned at schools. Thankfully, federal laws guarantee that every school-aged child can receive access to education regardless of their immigration status, and schools are prohibited from sharing information with other government entities that may reveal immigration status. Finally, while not written into law, schools are designated as a sensitive location where immigration raids should not occur.
Another timely, relevant resource is a report from the Migration Policy Institute on Serving Immigrant Families Through Two-Generation Programs. This report discusses 11 programs across the nation that are successful at meeting the needs of both students (via welcoming, supportive school resources) and their families (via adult ESL and literacy offerings, employment assistance, and immigration support). While such programs are challenged by the diverse needs different families bring to school, the success stories set a benchmark for other schools who wish to affirm and support immigrant and refugee families.
While the political climate may feel shaky with regard to our work as language educators, it is an opportunity to demonstrate courage for and solidarity with our students.

Northwest Angle: A Minnesota Geographic Oddity
by Elle Andra-Warner October 1, 2019
So, how did a northwest chunk of Minnesota—located at the northwestern-most point of Lake of the Woods—end up in Canada? The Northwest Angle, which residents called simply the "Angle," is bordered on three sides by Canada with Manitoba to the west and Ontario to the north and east. It covers about 320-square-kilometre, mostly undeveloped forest, is about 2.5 hours' drive east of Winnipeg, Manitoba, has 120 residents (2010 census) and by land, is only accessible by a single gravel road or in winter, an ice road.
About 70 percent of the Angle is held in a trust by Minnesota's Red Lake Indian Reservation, who were given the land back in 1945 by the U.S. federal government. According to U.S. census data, most residents of Northwest Angle do not have American Indian ancestry.
Earlier this year, the Angle—which is about 80 percent water—received wide media attention when an anonymous U.S. citizen identified as "C.C." launched an online petition to the White House's section "We the People" to "Give Canada back the Northwest Angle located in Manitoba." To move forward, the petition needed 100,000 signatures. It fell short, garnering 5,554 signatures; the petition is now closed as it did not meet the signature requirement.
An earlier attempt to return the Angle to Canada was in 1998 when its residents threatened to secede from the U.S. and join Canada when Ontario declared that if they catch fish in the Canadian portion of Lake of the Woods, they could only keep the catch by staying overnight at Canadian resorts. The Angle residents convinced their Minnesota congressman, Collin Peterson, to present a constitutional amendment that would let Angle residents become Canadians (they weren't really serious). The issue was resolved by then Governor Jesse Ventura and the Angle remained in the U.S.
The wacky story of the Angle goes back 236 years to the signing of the Treaty of Paris in 1783 between U.S. and British negotiators. The Treaty ended the American Revolutionary War, gave British recognition to the U.S. as an independent nation, and set the boundary between the U.S. and British North America (today's Canada). But there was one major problem: the Treaty relied on an inaccurate 1755 map (drawn by a Virginian-born physician John Mitchell living in England using archival material) in setting the international boundary west of Lake Superior. To be fair, at the time, the Mitchell map was considered the most detailed map of North America; it measured 4 feet, 6 inches by 6 feet, 5 inches (136 cm x 195 cm).
Map of the Northwest Angle in Minnesota, bordering Manitoba, Ontario and Lake of the Woods. | THE ILLUSIONAL MINISTRY
What was wrong with the 1755 Mitchell map west of Lake Superior? For starters, Lake of the Woods was drawn in the shape of an oval rather than a large lake with multiple bays, and Mississippi River was shown west of the lake, instead of south. The Treaty spelled out the boundary between Lake Superior and Lake of the Woods "…thence through the said Lake [of the Woods] to the Northwestern point thereof, & from thence on the due west Course to the River Mississippi…" And there lay the problem—where was the "northwestern point" of Lake of the Woods?
To make a long story shorter, it wasn't until after the War of 1812 and the establishment of the joint boundary commission (which included famous mapmaker David Thompson who had already mapped much of Minnesota) that the search to identify the lake's northwest point received attention. However, it wasn't until 1842 with the signing of the Webster-Ashburton Treaty that the location was agreed by all, and the chunk of U.S. land in Canada became known as the Northwest Angle.
At one point, Canada offered to buy the Angle, but was rejected as the U.S. chose to keep the original terms of the Treaty of Paris.
How to get to the Northwest Angle?
By land, the Angle can't be reached without going through Canada. Depending on the season though, you can also travel by boat, ice road, and float plane (bring provisions from mainland). Driving the one road, there is a heated unmanned shack that serves as a border crossing, where visitors call in their details by a video phone to the U.S. Homeland Security. For U.S. residents travelling by car to the Angle from mainland Minnesota, it will mean crossing two U.S.-Canada border crossing each way: at Manitoba south border coming into Canada, and at the Angle border crossing to re-enter to the U.S.
Going for groceries in Warroad, Minnesota can be fun—first the groceries have to be legally eligible to cross into Canada, before brought back into U.S. at the Angle. And what about schools? According to the CBC News article, "Although the Northwest Angle has one of the United States' last one-room schoolhouses, any children older than sixth grade must embark on a daily three-hour return bus trip to the Minnesota mainland."
Here's some trivia:
Two other pieces of Minnesota that, except for surveying error, should be Canadian, and also can only be reached by land through Manitoba, are Elm Point and Buffalo Bay Point.

We realize you may have a few questions, like what size dumpster do I need or how much is this going to cost. Just give us a call and one of our specialists in Tracy, Minnesota will be happy to answer any questions you may have.
If your looking to rent a roll off container in Tracy, don't accept slow responding companies or late deliveries. For over 15 year's we have delivered our dumpsters on-time, when and where our customers need them. Give us a call today to experience why we're the #1 affordable dumpster rental company nationwide.
Tips For Renting a Roll Off Bin in Tracy, Minnesota!
Nobody considers the details involved in renting a dumpster until the day comes when you really need one, and then you may find yourself wanting a heads up on basic dumpster rental tips. Some people in Tracy are just looking to get rid of some junk that's been littering their land, while others are starting on a big construction project. It isn't always as simple as just picking the biggest dumpster you think will do the job, since you may end up spending a lot more money than you have to if you don't do a bit of homework first.
It's important to try and estimate your costs prior to rental of your dumpster, that way you don't run over budget at the end. The main choices that impact your costs is the weight of your waste, materials you're getting rid of and length of time you'll need the dumpster for. You'll also want to ask the rental company if there are any costs for permits in Tracy that may add to your budget.
Deciding on what size dumpster to rent is going to be the most affordable decision you make. You don't want to get yourself in a position where you exceed your weight capacity, so it's better to overestimate and have a bit of room left over, since you'll probably find more garbage to fill it up anyway. The most used sized dumpsters will be between 10 and 40 cubic yards, so there's a size that fits any job you may have. A good sized dumpster for a medium job, such as cleaning out a garage, would be a 20 cubic yard option. In order to ensure you're getting the right size it's a good idea to tell your rental company in Tracy exactly what materials you'll be disposing of.
One topic not to be overlooked is weight restrictions on your dumpster, as they can run up your costs in the end. Don't be fooled by the size of a dumpster, as they have a habit of filling up rapidly once you start throwing stuff away. You may have extra space in your dumpster as well, but remember that it can still end up going over its weight capacity. Depending on the materials you're disposing of you may want to check on any landfill charges that may come your way. Be advised that if your dumpster becomes too heavy, it could actually damage your property or driveway. You should also inform the rental business of the materials you intend to dispose of in the dumpster, that way they can advise you ahead of time of the type you'll need.
Prior to deciding on what type of dumpster you're going to rent it's a good idea to make a list of possible items you're going to be tossing in it. Dumpster rental businesses in Tracy might have items that they do not allow you to dispose of that could be dangerous or impact the environment. These prohibited waste objects could include things like paint cans, antifreeze or paint cans, industrial level chemicals or mattresses. It's also a good idea to write down a list of major items you're going to be disposing of and that will give you idea of the dumpster size you'll want. As a rule of thumb, a 10 or 20 cubic yard dumpster will be ideal for garage cleanups and yard debris disposals.
You can estimate your dumpster cost by checking the size, weight capacities and types of materials you're disposing of. Most of these factors will be used by the rental business to determine cost, and they will likely offer you a free estimate. Bigger dumpsters are always more expensive than smaller ones, regardless of the weight you're putting in them. Larger containers put more of a cost on the rental business in the form of fuel, manpower and dumping work required in the disposal phase.
When deciding on a dumpster rental company it's usually best to go with one in the local Tracy area. This is because locally owned companies can save you a lot of time and hassle going through paperwork, since they will already work with local recycling and waste disposal businesses. They'll also have a heads up as to where the best locations to dispose of waste materials are. Take your time when looking for dumpster rentals to choose the best one for your task, and plan accordingly to provide your rental company with as many details as possible.

It has been forever. I haven't been developing recipes. More just experimenting in the kitchen and enjoying the freedom of being in the moment with cooking. Not taking notes or writing anything down. But, it is back to recipe making for me.
Of late, I have been trying to eat more raw while at home. Out. It doesn't matter. I feel like our bodies give us signs that we need to change our diet or our lifestyle. And for me it was my hair. It started to look dry and brittle. No longer any shine or luster. I wanted to make sure my diet had less of my favorites (bread, dairy, sugar, caffeine) and more whole foods. Thank goodness it is spring and I can barely keep up with the food that I am harvesting from the garden. Vegetables abound. Yet, this recipe does not happen to include any such vegetables. Instead, it is for onion crackers. Which are totally inspired by Matt Amsden's Famous Onion Bread. They do happen to pair quite well as a side to a fresh garden salad though.
This makes a small batch. Just enough for snacking on over the week. However, it is easily doubled or even tripled for that matter.
I use my oven as it can be set at 100 degrees. However, you can also use a dehydrator tray lined with a Teflex sheet, but I don't own one so I cannot verify the time and temperature.
Put all the ingredients in a food processor and mix until you get a smooth puree. It will still have bits and chunks so don't stress. Just until it is mixed and the onions seem chopped.
Spread the mixture on a parchment paper lined cookie sheet. Spread it as thin as you can without being paper thin. Just think a cracker. Then sprinkle with kosher salt and freshly ground pepper. You can go ahead and lightly score them if you want perfectly square pieces. I never do. I just break them apart once they are done.
Dehydrate them on 100 for roughly 20 hours (depending on how thin you spread the mixture, it may take up to 24), flipping them halfway through. I usually put another piece of parchment paper on them and us it to easily flip the entire mass. If you are prescoring them, score the other side as well.
The perils of winter and its shortened days. The cozy warm fire beckons one inside. The cold crisp air, although intoxicating to some even in its sharpness, acts to deter even the most beloved of activities. Farmers markets are forgone for the ease and convenience of the grocery store. As shamefully hard as it is to admit, I don't know the last time I stepped foot at the farmers market. Whole Foods on the other hand, has become a frequented location.
On these bitter cold days, when all I seem to want is to warm my bones, and baths have become a nightly ritual, soup seems the best choice for dinner. Soup made of hearty ingredients. Soup that has one dreaming of spring and warmer days.
This soup requires a "bouquet garni", or a bundle of herbs tied together with string and used to prepare soup, stock, and various stews. The bouquet is cooked with the other ingredients, but is removed before serving. If it were spring, or even summer or fall for that matter, I would walk barefoot out the doors of our home, to the garden and wander along the beds, choosing an assortment of fresh herbs. However, with winter at hand, I was at the mercy of the grocery store.
Gently heat oil in a large stock pot adding the onions and sauté until they begin to color and soften, about 5 minutes. Add the garlic, bay leaves, and bouquet garni and cook for another minute or so, seasoning with salt and pepper. Add the turnips and cook for just a moment (like 30 seconds) adding the water to the pot. Bring to a boil over medium heat, then reduce to low and simmer for 10 minutes or until the turnips are soft but not breaking down. Add the beans and kale and cook until they are heated through. Remove from heat as well as remove the herbs and bay leaves. Add the lemon juice and parsley and stir to combine.

3 Moments of Goodness from the Castle Season 4 Finale — "Always"
Tina Charles, May 7, 2012
Photo Credit: Vivian Zink/ABC
I'm still sitting (and typing) in awe right now. Expectations were high for the Castle Season 4 finale, I'm not going to lie. Kara and I have expressed our feelings about how we wanted some serious movement on the Beckett and Castle front before this season was over. I expected something to go down in "Always." But what happened was so much more…satisfying. Thank you, Andrew Marlowe and everyone involved in the making of this episode. I'm going to say that right now before we go any further.
Right off the bat, things seemed to be back to normal between Beckett and Castle. They even set up a movie date of sorts. It was all very cute. But when this week's murder investigation included a break-in at the late Captain Roy Montgomery's house, we knew things were going to get intense in a major way. They tried to throw us off and say this was all tied into one of his old cases that involved gang violence. But, of course, that's not what it turned out to be. It had to do with Beckett's shooting and the murder of her mother. And when Beckett started investigating the leads in hardcore fashion, Castle was immediately freakin' scared out of his mind. But he had to keep those feelings to himself. He found some other ways to channel his support to Kate, which led to our first Moment of Goodness.
Moment of Goodness #1: Castle comforted Beckett at the Precinct
Knowing full well that Castle's very own "deep throat" was telling him to figure out a way to keep Beckett off the case, there wasn't much he could do. It had been a year since Kate's shooting and there's hadn't been any leads. She had to do this. And so Rick showed up at the precinct with a cup of coffee for his partner — and some comforting words:
Castle: "Hey, you're not in this alone. I'm here."
Beckett: "I know."
Kate took Rick's hand in what turned out to be a quick, sweet, very discreet moment between the two. Those few words of support, the hand-holding, and the chemistry-filled looks were enough to make me melt and we were only 15 minutes into the show. There was much more to come.
Moment of Goodness #2: Castle came clean to Beckett
Castle tried to subtly get his partner to back off the investigation, but there was no way that was going to happen. He, ultimately, had to resort to the truth and nothing but the truth. He asked her to stop this investigation and told her about the guy that he'd been in contact with — the one warning him to keep Beckett away from the case, which would insure her safety. Beckett was angry and all bets were off. Castle upped the stakes of this conversation big time:
Beckett: "How the hell could you do this?"
Castle: "Because I love you. But you already know that, don't you? You've known for about a year."
Beckett: "Are you kidding me? You're actually bringing this up right now? After you told me that you just betrayed me?"
Castle: "Kate, listen to me…"
Beckett: "Listen to you? Why should I listen to you? How am I supposed to even trust anything that you say?"
That's when Nathan Fillion just about broke my heart. Complete with unshed tears, Castle went for broke:
Castle: "How are you? Because of everything we've been through together! Four years I've been right here. Four years just waiting for you to just open your eyes — to see that I'm right here. That I'm more than a partner. Every morning I bring you a cup of coffee just so I can see a smile on your face because I think you are the most…remarkable, maddening, challenging, frustrating person I've ever met. And I love you Kate and if that means anything to you. If you care about me at all just don't do this."
That monologue right there really got to me. I may have shed some tears, that's how caught up in the moment I was. Despite the heartfelt words, Kate wasn't budging. She was pissed off. She was hurt that Castle resorted to these tactics to protect her. She said she was ready for whatever's coming after her. As for Castle? He told Kate he wasn't going to stick around to see her throw her life away. He told her this was all over. He was done. Wow. This was possibly one of the best scenes of Castle ever. I love it when Fillion steps up like that. Stana Katic too. The intensity was high and so was the heartbreak.
Moment of Goodness #3: Beckett and Castle and the ultimate Caskett Scene we've all been waiting for
After Castle deleted his Beckett file, there was a knock at the door. It was Beckett. She had already faced the big bad and almost died. Iron Gates had placed her (and Espo) on administrative leave for hiding the investigation from her. Kate's answer was to resign from the NYPD. She was drenched after wandering out in the rain, she tried to call him but he didn't answer. Then the knock came and Castle opened his door:
Castle: "Beckett, what do you want?"
Beckett: "You." (she kisses him) "I'm so sorry, Castle. I'm so sorry. I'm so sorry."
Castle: "What happened?"
Beckett: "He got away and I didn't care. I almost died and all I could think about was you. I just want you."
And after four seasons, fans wanting Castle and Beckett together got just that. It was passionate and not over the top. The show didn't jump the shark. I don't know where things will pick up next season, but for now I'm utterly and completely ecstatic with this finale. I loved Alexis' valedictory speech; I loved how there's a hitch in the bromance that is Espo and Ryan. I think "Always" was the perfect way to end Season 4 (although Ryan & Espo better make up quickly when Season 5 starts. Just saying). Can't wait to see what happens next. We know there's more to come with Beckett's shooting and her mom's death. And I wonder if Castle might not become a target as well. Now for the painful hiatus also known as the summer break. Can the fall just get here now? Pretty Please?

Late payments, 'tick box empowerment' undermine SA small businesses
BY Gavin Emmanuel	3 MINUTE READ
Despite their stated commitment to B-BBEE and to supporting the growth of small business, SA state organisations and large enterprises can hamper small business growth through their procedures and procurement approaches.
This is according to small business experts who were speaking at the opening of the annual Small Business Expo and #BuyaBusiness expo at the Ticketpro Dome in Northriding this morning.
The expert panel told a media briefing that South Africa presented massive opportunities for entrepreneurs, and that significant support and funding was now available for start-ups, but that small businesses often faced growth challenges once they were past the start-up phase.
"Our business development strategies in South Africa need to change," said Dionne Kerr, CEO of advisory firm Siyakha. "If we want to achieve our goals of making small businesses major employers, we have to focus on developing capacity, capability and competence in existing small businesses – we have to focus on growth."
She said government initiatives tended to focus on funding start-ups and businesses generating revenue over R100 million, but neglected businesses in the middle. "Government agencies and large corporates also need to focus on how they buy from SMEs, particularly black-owned companies. There are massive ESD budgets totaling in the region of R82 billion, yet many black-owned SMEs still find themselves at the bottom of the supply chain," Kerr said.
While start-up funding is often cited as a challenge for small businesses in South Africa, Andrew Maren, Founder and CEO of ProfitShare Partners, noted that cash flow was a bigger problem. "Large corporates and state agencies with a policy of only paying in 90 – 180 days severely hamper small business operations. Late payment – or no payment – is killing small businesses," he said.
The panel said that although state expenditure with small businesses had moved from 9% to 28% in recent years, small businesses had to be given opportunities to take on key projects, and had to be paid timeously, in order for them to grow. Empowerment could not be approached as a 'tick box' exercise, and had to support business growth to be effective, they said.
Marang Marekimane, Founder of Business Process Mechanics, pointed out that small businesses were encouraged to employ people, but were left unable to pay their salaries while they awaited payment from large corporates and government agencies.
Another key challenge facing local small businesses was the attitude seen in many procurement departments, they said, with corporate South Africa committed to empowerment at a senior level, but reluctant to award major contracts to small enterprises in practice.
"Big corporates tend to say they can't find small businesses to partner with, or that they are not convinced of their track records and capacity," said Marekimane.
Maren said: "Many excuses come up – corporates can't find black suppliers, or they are concerned about operational or financial risk. The fact is that corporate South Africa is sometimes lazy within the procurement environment."
However, despite the challenges facing small businesses in South Africa, the panel said small businesses still presented massive opportunities for job creation and economic growth. "South Africa is a land of opportunity – you can literally start a business from home," said Kerr." And it's one of the few remaining countries where hard work actually counts for something."
"We're an untapped market – entrepreneurs just need to find a problem and go to market with a solution," said Maren. "The opportunities are there and this is a good time to be an entrepreneur in South Africa."
Noting that "The power to fix South Africa's problems lies in the hands of South Africa's SMEs," panel discussion facilitator and 'Chief Coffee Drinker' at the SME Movement, York Zucchi, urged small businesses to take advantage of the support and skills development opportunities available at the Small Business Expo.
The Small Business Expo and co-located #BuyaBusiness Expo, presented in partnership with the Eskom Foundation, will run until 8 September at the Ticketpro Dome, featuring hundreds of business opportunities and support services, and over 150 free workshops to help small business owners grow their businesses.

'History on the Run' – An Insight Into News Publishing from Nova Scotia
Filed under: Jim Meek,John R. Austin,News,news media,newspaper publishing,newspapers — gator1965 @ 7:59 pm
Tags: Graham Dennis, Jim Meek, John R. Austin, newspaper history, newspaper publishing, newspapers, Nova Scotia, The Chronicle Herald, The Mail Star
Graham Dennis - News Publisher in Nova Scotia
Apparently Graham Dennis, publisher of The Chronicle Herald and The Mail Star in Nova Scotia for the last 57 years, fought off the temptations to be like the Murdochs and the Maxwells of the world — brash, flamboyant, vain, complicated, and determined to build an empire.
This fact alone makes Mr. Dennis a hero in my book … And a true journalist, businessman and publisher focused on a mission to better the world through genuine reporting of world and local events.
Graham Dennis passed away last Thursday at the age of 83 … He outlived many icons and through much transformative history.
Here is a little of Mr Dennis' unique history and an inspiring slice of publishing history:
As reported by Jim Meek for The Chronicle Herald:
When Graham Dennis took over as publisher of The Chronicle Herald and The Mail Star, the type was hot, the war with the Soviets was cold, reporters were "ink-stained wretches," and writers of letters to the editor signed off their fiery missives with pseudonyms.
The year was 1954. The New York Giants were World Series champions. Louis St. Laurent was prime minister. Dwight Eisenhower was president. Queen Elizabeth was two years into her reign. Conrad Black, future media baron, was still wearing short pants. Graham Dennis, destined to serve as this newspaper's publisher for the next 57 years, was 26 years old.
Mr. Dennis, who died on Thursday, outlasted all of the above in one way or another — except the Queen, which would be just fine with him. Yes, Mr. Black is still around, but he's been to prison and he can't be described as a media mogul anymore.
I mention dear Conrad because he in many ways stands for the typical newspaper proprietor of his era. Black is like the Murdochs and the Maxwells of the world — brash, flamboyant, vain, complicated, and determined to build an empire.
Graham Dennis was cut from different cloth. He was modest, self-effacing, shy, polite to the point of courtliness, and focused on the single goal of running one smallish daily newspaper whose mission was to support progress in the place he loved — Nova Scotia.
Conrad Black was also like many of his Canadian contemporaries in another way — he was determined to buy The Chronicle Herald newspapers from Mr. Dennis. In fact, quite a crowd of media bosses has tried to unseat the Dennis family.
When I was The Chronicle Herald's Ottawa correspondent, in the early 1980s, the guys who worked for the Thomson newspaper chain often bugged me about whether "Graham" might sell. The Thomson newspaper chain is no longer with us; the Dennis family still owns the Halifax newspapers.
In 1999, I was at a dinner in Toronto at which Peter White, an adviser to Conrad Black, pointedly sat beside me. I was vain enough to imagine that White wanted to experience the light elegance of my refined company. Within five minutes, his real mission was clear. He wanted to know if Mr. Dennis would speak to Conrad about selling the paper.

World Association of Newspapers and News Publishers (WAN)
Filed under: Christoph Riess,John R. Austin,journalism,kraine,news media,newspapers,Viktor Yanukovych,WAN,World Association of Newspapers and News Publishers,World Newspaper Congress — gator1965 @ 8:24 pm
WAN is the host of the World Newspaper Congress, which meets every year or bi-yearly (after some research I'm still confused on schedule for this event)…The purpose of the Newspaper Congress being to bring all worldwide news media members together to discuss present and foreseeable news production problems and solutions…resulting in a more free press.
WAN's vision is "to be the indispensable partner of newspapers and the entire news publishing industry worldwide, particularly our members, in the defense and promotion of press freedom, quality journalism and editorial integrity and the development of prosperous businesses and technology."
WAN CEO, Christoph Riess, recently visited Viktor Yanukovych, the president of Ukraine, who is lobbying for the 2012 World Newspaper Congress to be held in the city of Kyiv.
If selected, the Newspaper Congress will coincide with the the 2012 UEFA European Football Championship, commonly referred to as Euro 2012, also being held in Kyiv.
But, beyond this tidbit of coincidence…and much more important…is the fact that the event could spell the solidification and recognition of a more democratic and free press state for the Ukraine.
This report from Yhiah Information Agency:
Yanukovych meets CEO of World Association of Newspapers and News Publishers
President of Ukraine Viktor Yanukovych met with Christoph Riess, Chief Executive Officer of the World Association of Newspapers and News Publishers (WAN), according to the Press office of President Viktor Yanukovych.
Welcoming the guest in Ukraine, the President reiterated his earlier invitation to the WAN to hold the World Newspaper Congress in Kyiv in 2012. "It is important that it was held in Kyiv," Viktor Yanukovych said. He reminded that in 2012 Ukraine will be hosting the finals of EURO 2012, therefore all the necessary hotel, transport and exhibition infrastructure will be ready.
"Conducting this very important forum in Kyiv will be the evidence that the state is attractive for free journalists and media," he said.
Viktor Yanukovych stressed the importance of development of the information market for Ukraine. "It is also the path of democracy and freedom development. For Ukraine, it is its establishment as a democratic state," he said. The President said the Ukrainian side is interested in any investments in this direction.

We love making simple preschool Valentines crafts. Brighten your windows with this Glittery Valentines Day craft. You might be surprised to learn what we used to create them. I had the tissue paper ready to go before I realized I was out of contact paper. So whats a girl to do…improvise. I love the results and the kids totally enjoyed the process. Read on to find out what we used to make these simple Heart Sun Catchers!
To make our simple glitter "glue," pour Liquid Starch into a container and stir in Glitter. Quick and simple! One of our easiest recipes so far. The glitter will settle to the bottom over time, but just give it a stir and your good to go.
Regular glue would work instead of Liquid Starch, however the starch is slippery where glue is sticky. These properties make the starch easier to paint onto the wax paper.
The kids painted the glittery starch glue straight on the to the wax paper. The kids loved the feel of how the paint brush slid across the wax paper. It was funny listening to the kids giggle about how the glue "felt" as they painted.
Once the kids are satisfied with the position of their tissue paper squares, we set the project aside to dry. The wax paper was quite wet, so we left it to dry overnight. Once the project was dry, I helped the kids cut it into a heart shape. The kids loved how their glittery hearts sparkled in the sun.
I love projects that force me think outside the box. Contact paper would have worked great. However, running out caused me to get creative. Honestly, I'm so glad I did. The process of painting glittery liquid starch was so fun and something we will be trying again soon. If you are just joining us, make sure to check out our favorite glitter projects.

There's a lot of shame and guilt in mental health
© Bang Showbiz
Selena Gomez felt "shame and guilt" amid her mental health battle.
The 'Lose You To Love Me' hitmaker opened up earlier this year about her struggle with bipolar, and has now said she's "extremely passionate" about supporting others going through similar experiences, as well as helping to end the stigma around substance abuse.
Selena spoke as she was joined by chef Antonia Lofaso for an episode of her new HBO Max show, 'Selena + Chef', which sees her cook a meal in her kitchen with the help of a different chef each episode.
As part of the premise of the show, the 28-year-old singer allows each of her guest chefs to pick a charity that the program will donate $10,000 to, and Antonia chose Beit T'Shuvah, which is a drug and rehab facility in Los Angeles.
Speaking about the facility, Antonia said: "I've had family members with substance abuse who've basically been given back to me through rehabilitation and I know that there's always an opportunity for people to find their way back home when there's help that's readily available to them."
And Selena responded: "I also have bipolar [disorder], so I deal with a lot of mental health issues and some of my family members are also addicts, so, you know, it's something that I'm extremely passionate about as well. I think that there is a lot of shame and guilt in it and then there's also this pressure of, you know, wanting to feel like you're a part of the crowd if you do this and do that.
"I'm very grateful that I now know that's something you do and people can check it out."
Meanwhile, the 'Wolves' singer spoke about her bipolar diagnosis in May, when she said she discovered her disorder in 2018 after visiting McLean Hospital, one of the best mental health institutions in the United States.
She said: "I went to one of the best mental hospitals in America, McLean's Hospital, and I discussed that after years of going through a lot of different things, I realized that I was bipolar.
"When I have more information, it actually helps me, it doesn't scare me once I know it … When I finally said what I was going to say, I wanted to know everything about it and it took the fear away.
"When I was younger, I was scared of thunderstorms and my mom bought me all these books on thunderstorms and she was like, 'The more you educate yourself on this, the more that you're not going to be afraid.' It completely worked. That's something that helps me big time."

DUBOIS, Pa. – The Saint Mary-of-the-Woods (SMWC) softball team (3-1) defeated D'Youville College (2-2) 4-5 on a walk-off single by Kelsey Young to advance to their 5th USCAA National Championship game in six years.
The Pomeroys are scheduled to face Florida National University (3-0) at 1:00 p.m. ET tomorrow. The team will need to defeat the Conquistadors twice tomorrow to secure their 13th USCAA National Title.
Postseason Game #4 | vs D'Youville College | W 4-5
D'Youville started the scoring on a groundout in the 1st inning to score one and would add another in the 3rd on a single up the middle. Center fielder Kaelee Moody would throw out a runner on the play at home to save a run but the Pomeroys still trail 2-0. Jaselyn Conn would triple in the bottom of the 3rd and Camryn Scott would bring her in on a triple of her own later to make it 2-1.
Starter Summer Rocha would make it a quick 4th and SMWC would score 3 in the bottom of the 4th on a single by Moody to score Faith Pokryfke and later a pinch-hit single by Lyric Krause to score two, making it 2-4 for SMWC. Neither team would do much in the 5th or the 6th but a bit of drama unfolded in the bottom of the 6th when a single by Jilliann Reese to right-center would drive Conn around to third who would be initially called out on the tag at third before being overturned on an obstruction call. SMWC couldn't do any damage but hold on to the lead going into the 7th.
D'Youville would lead off with a double followed by an error to make it first and third with nobody out. A sacrifice fly would score one and a groundout would tie the game at 4-4. Rocha escapes the inning with no further damage but the Pomeroys couldn't end the game in the 7th.
Rocha would make two phenomenal plays on line drives back to the mound to get the first two outs and a fielder's choice would send us to the bottom of the 8th. Pokryfke would be placed on 2nd per international rules and her steal of third would give Kelsey Young the chance to be the hero which she would take full advantage of by singling up the middle and securing a spot in the championship game with a 5-4 win.
Pomeroy Player-of-the-Game: Kelsey Young, who not only went 3-4 at the plate with a run scored, but her walk-off single to score Pokryfke sealed the victory for SMWC.

"The game plan was to actually bunt Faith [Pokryfke] over, but I failed to get that down so Coach told Faith to steal, she got over there safely and after that, I was just trying to do anything that I could to get a hit and get my team the win."
On the team's mentality facing FNU tomorrow…
"We're hungry and this is the biggest game that we've had all year; we got to take two. I mean they're a good team, but I know that we're better. This is a business trip like Katrina said yesterday. We're here to get stuff done and I think that we come out ready to play tomorrow, everyone is going to be well-rested. We're going to take two and we're going to bring home the title. We're ready!"

Jevonie helped us out at short notice and really got on well with our little boy. She was willing and able to stayquite late which was excellent. We definitely recommend her.
Jevonie was a great help in establishing a routine for my son. She is very knowledgeable and very punctual. She'd take him to educational events, set up play dates, a baby whisperer in the making.


I've been a photographer full time for over four years now. My love for photography started with weddings and has continued to grow into a passion to take beautiful images for all women. The journey to boudoir photography for me was driven by a deep desire to see women connect with their beauty. We live in a world of "not enough". We are never pretty enough, successful enough, skinny enough...the list goes on. In the Meagan O Studio, you are beyond enough. You are a masterpiece and I want to show you how stunningly beautiful you truly are.


Road trip anyone? Fall is the perfect time to take a road trip in Indiana. The leaves are changing, the weather is cooling down, and some of the best festivals and attractions come out in the fall! The best route to take with the most stunning views and fun things to do is Route 20 or Highway 20, which goes through northern Indiana. This route will take visitors through LaGrange County, home of the infamous Shipshewana, a popular destination for Hoosiers and tourists alike. Along the way, there will be plenty of interesting, cozy towns, fun attractions, and delicious restaurants to discover. Get planning!
The first stop on any road trip should be finding a place to stay, and depending on one's preference for lodging, there are a variety of B&BS, hotels/motels, campgrounds and RV parks, as well as cabins to be found along Highway 20. If you prefer a bed and breakfast, the Songbird Ridge Bed and Breakfast is the place to stay in Shipshewana! The B&B is in the heart of Amish country and is surrounded by many Amish farms. Picture rolling green hillsides, listen to the sounds of quail birds and ducks as they pass… It's a true country retreat, made even better by hosts Gene and Gwen, who are absolute gems and make you feel welcome! Though you may enter as guests, you'll definitely leave as friends.
After a wonderful night's stay at Songbird Ridge Bed and Breakfast, wake up feeling refreshed and ready to start your day with a healthy breakfast and a good cup of coffee. For the best coffee, head to the Kitchen Cupboard and enjoy the taste of locally-roasted coffee beans. For the best breakfast, try Four Seasons Diner and experience the best omelet and old fashion pancakes you've ever tasted!
90% of my friends are off doing stellar things like working at Jesus camps or neat internships or traveling and I'm just here drowning in coffee. But that's okay. If any of you ever visit Shipshewana, swing by to see me and I'll hook you up with a cup of the goods.
The best part about Highway 20 is that even though you might be staying in one place, there is always something to do within a 10-15-minute drive. One of the most popular attractions and scenic areas to visit is the Black Pine Animal Sanctuary in Albion, Indiana. Just a short drive from Shipshewana, this non-profit animal sanctuary is a refuge for displaced or captive raised exotic animals to live out the rest of their lives in peace and as in much of a natural environment as possible. There are a variety of tours available, from group tours to private tours, to tadpole tours for the little ones. It's a great place for the whole family.
When taking a road trip, it's always great to bring back some souvenirs and whether you are visiting Shipshewana, Middlebury, or any of the other destinations along Highway 20, you are bound to walk away with some amazing finds! The next best scenic destination is the Shipshewana Flea Market. With over 800 booths, it is certainly a sight to behold and what everyone comes to see. The market is open rain or shine, but be sure to dress accordingly for the weather as it is an open-air market. Another thing visitors should take note is to most vendors accept credit cards, but it is always a good idea to have plenty of cash on hand!
After a day of taking in the sights and shopping, it's time for lunch. Because visitors find themselves in Amish country, there is no shortage of hot, delicious lunches to be found here! Iannarelli's Italian Restaurant is the place to go for lunch. Located in Howe, Indiana, Iannarelli's has the best pizza and Italian food. The food is homemade, hot, fresh and out of the oven. Their lasagna tastes just like Grandma made it, and their pizzas are thin, crispy and melt in your mouth!
If you are planning a weekend trip, it's best to save these next destinations for your second or third day. Start your morning off with an energizing hike through the Pumpkin Vine Trail. The trail itself was once a railroad line that connected the towns of Goshen, Middlebury, and Shipshewana. Now, visitors from all over come to hike, walk, bike and run this trail. The trail is smooth yet somewhat challenging and comes with beautiful views: rural areas, farm fields, country roads, tunnels through forests, acres and acres of corn fields… The views are diverse and provide a scenic view as you hike.
Fall in Indiana means it is apple picking season and the orchards are in full bloom! Visit Kercher's Sunrise Orchards in nearby Goshen, Indiana. Family owned and operated since 1922, the orchard is a favorite of Hoosiers and visitors alike. From now through November, visitors can come and pick their own delicious apples. Enjoy a wide variety of Honey Crisp apples, Cortland apples, Red and Golden Delicious apples, as well as Fuji and Granny Smith.
With Halloween just a little over a month away, now is a good time to start visiting the haunted houses and attractions! Because Indiana is rich with history, you'll be hard pressed to find an attraction that isn't haunted, especially in northern Indiana. Take a tour of the legendary Winchester Mansion in Elkhart, Indiana, where visitors are said to have seen the ghost of a former resident, Miss Nellie Knickerbocker and experienced lights in the attic turning off by themselves, items falling off the shelves, and strange sounds in the night. Rumor has it that Miss Nellie was a bit quirky. She's said to have liked her husband's casket so much, she bought one for herself and kept it in the foyer. Quirky, huh?
At the end of the day, after you've toured the apple orchard, had an energizing hike, and finished up the evening with a tour of a haunted house, it's always nice to unwind with friends, family, and a good drink. The best place to do this is at 41 Degrees North Restaurant and Bar in Middlebury, Indiana. The restaurant features a full-service bar, two large TVs, bar top dining, and it's also family friendly. They've only been in business for a few years, but have already made a name for themselves. Try one of their delicious signature cocktails, wine offerings, or a draft beer or bottle!


We are asking members to help us celebrate 90 years of the union this year. It was in 1929 that performers first met together to fight for their own protection and the benefit of all those working in the industry. Without those pioneers Equity would not exist and without your support we would not be the strong and successful trade union we are today.
It has been a huge success and we want to continue the campaign.
In the coming weeks and months you will see images from the #MyCardMyUnion campaign in the workplace (such as posters and leaflets) and online. Every Monday throughout the year we will be releasing further portraits of some of our high profile members on social media demonstrating their solidarity with the union and we want members to take the opportunity to share their support.
We hope that this will give members a platform to discuss the union at work and convince those who are not already members to sign up.
Equity is a successful trade union, we currently have the largest number of members in our history at 45,475, but there are still many who are yet to sign up despite the many reasons to join. In the past five years alone, for example, we have collected more than £60 million in royalties and other secondary payments for Equity performers, arising from the terms of our collective agreements. Our agreements underpin the whole industry and our campaigning strives to make it a safer and fairer place to work for everyone. Through #MyCardMyUnion members have shared what they have valued, such as crucial help following an accident, the resolution of workplace and legal disputes, securing their hard earned money and pension support.
We need a strong membership because there are challenges ahead. Brexit is casting a shadow over us all and we are currently in tough negotiations in theatre, film and with the streaming media giants.
Thank you for being #ProudtobeEquity and please continue to support the #MyCardMyUnion campaign.

UK uses an untested strategy to rapidly but partially protect people at risk
With the virus running amok in the country and vaccines in short-supply, the U.K. is attempting an untested strategy of delaying the second dose of both AstraZeneca and Pfizer vaccine even in the absence of data from large trials. The intent is to rapidly but partially protect more individuals who are at risk.
With the U.K. regulator on December 30 granting an emergency use authorisation for AstraZeneca's COVID vaccine, three vaccines have now been greenlighted for use even before a full approval is granted.
Unlike the mRNA vaccine platform of Pfizer and Moderna vaccines, AstraZeneca uses a weakened version of a common cold virus (adenovirus) that carries the genetic material of the spike protein to elicit an immune response. Requiring only 2-8 degree C for transport and storage, the vaccine can be administered in existing healthcare settings, allowing rapid deployment.
Together with the cost, which is much cheaper than the mRNA vaccines, this is particularly critical to help end the pandemic in the global south. The emergency use approval by the U.K regulator — Medicines & Healthcare products Regulatory Agency (MHRA) — makes it easier for a similar approval of the vaccine tested and manufactured here.
EMA yet to approve
While the U.K. regulator has granted emergency use approval, the European Medicines Agency, on the same day, clearly said that "additional scientific information on issues related to quality, safety and efficacy of the vaccine is deemed necessary" to give a similar nod.
While published results show only 62% efficacy when two full-strength doses are administered four weeks apart, the U.K regulator has relied on unpublished data showing efficacy increasing to 73% 22 days after the first dose when the second jab was delayed. A majority of the participants in the phase-3 trial in the U.K. included in the primary analysis received the second dose more than nine weeks after the first.
Delaying the second dose
Based on this information, the regulator has permitted the second dose to be administered 4-12 weeks after the first jab. The intent is to maximise the benefits of the vaccine by stretching the time between two doses to allow more people to get vaccinated, an untested strategy to rapidly but partially protect more individuals who are at risk.
With the virus running amok in the country, the U.K. has revised its policy to delay the second dose of Pfizer vaccine too despite no trial data to support this; the second Pfizer jab is originally scheduled three weeks after the first. While the regulator says there is 89% short-term protection from day 14 after the first dose, Pfizer insists that there is "no data to demonstrate that protection after the first dose is sustained beyond 21 days". Two doses of both vaccines complete the course and prolong the duration of protection.
More trials needed
If the pandemic forced scientists, companies and regulators to quickly make available safe and efficacious COVID vaccines, delaying the second dose to maximise the benefits of the vaccine is altogether a new strategy.
The untested approach might probably be appropriate for U.K., which is facing the brunt of the virus, as a desperate measure. Since delaying the second dose appears to be increasing the efficacy, and as U.K. has approved a delayed second dose, India should carry out large trials to test this.
