TALLAHASSEE -- Gov. Jeb Bush is expected to announce today that Republican Sen. Jim Horne will head Florida's new-look education system, handing one of the most influential jobs in state government and academia to an accountant from the Jacksonville area.
Horne, 42, has been a member of the state Senate since 1994, and will leave one of its top jobs, chairmanship of the Appropriations Committee, to oversee education in Florida from kindergarten through graduate school.
"Jim Horne is the best-prepared person I know to be in that job," said John Thrasher, a former House speaker who also represented Horne's hometown of Orange Park. "He gets it from a policy standpoint, a budget standpoint, and from an education standpoint."
Also today, Bush is expected to appoint Winter Park financier Phil Handy, a major Republican fund-raiser, as chairman of the new seven-member Board of Education, which will set policy for universities and community colleges and, by 2003, public schools.
Handy, 57, led the task force that urged the Legislature to change Florida's education system, as well as end the 36-year reign of the Board of Regents over state colleges and universities. Horne also served on the task force, prompting critics to say their rise smacks of political favoritism.
"There was a great deal of discussion during Mr. Handy's committee meetings, and in all the process around those meetings, that the commissioner of education would be a professional, nationally known, and so forth," said Dr. Joseph Layon, an anesthesiology professor at the University of Florida, who has led the UF faculty senate's opposition to the plan.
"Maybe Mr. Horne has some education credentials. It is certainly possible [but] as far as I know, he is not a nationally known educator."
Instead, Horne, who has served on Senate education and school funding committees, is a close political ally of Bush. In the fiercely competitive Senate, Horne earned a reputation as low-key and likeable.
But he also brings to the post solid organizational skills, deep knowledge of the Legislature, and, perhaps most of all, loyalty to the governor, allies say.
While light on academic credentials, Horne has spent half his life advising business clients and families what they can and can't do with their own budgets. He joined accounting giant PricewaterhouseCoopers at 21, in Jacksonville, after graduating from Florida State University. He became the firm's youngest local tax manager.
As secretary of the new board, Horne will be responsible for most of Florida's school policy decisions. Horne also could play a key role in more than 150 appointments still to be made by Bush to new advisory panels and trustee boards for each of Florida's 11 universities.
Bush today is expected to name the remaining members of the Board of Education from a list that includes Florida business and political leaders.

'Unite to Defend Your Rights, Or Else, You'll Cease to Exist'
by Denboba Natie, February 20, 2017
"Injustice Anywhere Is A Threat To Justice Everywhere. We Are Caught In An Inescapable Network Of Mutuality, Tied In A Single Garment Of Destiny. Whatever Affects One Directly, Affects All Indirectly." Martin Luther King Jr. "Letter from Birmingham Jail", 16 April 1963, USA
Entertaining Petty Differences is Equating to Ideological Fornication
I. The TPLF Never Quashes the Oromo Revolution.
(Ayyaantuu)The Oromo nation's new waves of struggle against the ongoing oppression began in October 2015, is continuing unabated; despite the imposition of state of emergency by TPLF's ruthless regime since October 2016. Several hundreds of Oromo civilians have been summarily executed on monthly basis ever since; and to date hundreds are getting slaughtered by TPLF's terrorizing agents known as 'Agi-azi', in addition to Ogaden Sumali Liyu militia, the national army and security forces. Additionally, hundreds of thousands of Oromo civilians are rounded up and taken to various torturing chambers all over the country; where the prisons of the country mainly entertain Oromo prisoners – to the extent where people assume that the language of all prisons in Ethiopia became Affan Oromo. The Oromo's prominent opposition figures such as Baqala Garbaa and Professor Marara Gudina among hundreds of thousands of Oromo prisoners remain unlawfully incarcerated. Therefore, the Oromo's current revolution is the outcome of over century old grievances resulted from deep-seated injustice imposed on the nation by successive Ethiopian rulers including the current TPLF's ruthless regime.
Therefore, the aim of the Oromo nation's new form of struggle is not about demanding the regime to answer their mysterious, unrealistic and alien quests. To the contrary, the Oromo nation unanimously rose to unconditionally demand its Waqaa, Allah, Magano, Yahweh, Egiziabher (God-given) unalienable rights to decent life, liberty, freedom of choice and self-determination, the pursuit of happiness and dignity; all denied to the nation by this regime for the last 26 years. The Oromo nation as the rest nations and peoples of Ethiopia is demanding 'Nothing More, Nothing Less'.
Furthermore, the Oromo nation as the rest peoples of Ethiopian is demanding the current TPLF's terrorist regime to stop the ongoing exploitation of their vast resources and economy, displacements of millions of Oromo peasants from their ancestral lands and livelihood (to vacate it for TPLF's military commanders and its collaborators to trade with it under the pretext of elusive investment and fake development). The Oromo is demanding its denied rights to be unconditionally restored.
Sadly, the response of TPLF's ruthless regime to date remain live bullet and mass incarceration of hundreds of thousands of Oromo civilians where inhumane treatments in various prisons is extreme. To make the situation worst, the current deployment of Ogaden Liyu militia (Agi'Azi within it) to massacre the Oromo people from East to South Ogaden neighboring areas is demonstrating the virulent nature of TPLF's brutal regime to the Oromo nation in particular, to the rest peoples and nations of Ethiopia in general. Lessons the peoples of Ethiopia have learnt thus far are evident that this regime never respect its own constitution which vehemently denounces (at least on paper) its harrowing actions to unarmed civilians. Wholly disregarding its constitution, the regime remains responding all quests of the Oromo, Ogaden Sumali, Sidama, Amhara, Konso, Gambella, Benshangul and the rest peoples and nations of Ethiopia with live bullet and unprecedented level of brutality since it has assumed power in May 1991.
II. The West and Their Hypocrisy
Overwhelmingly occupied with jungle mentality of over four decades, to date the TPLF's architects resorted to responding to any peaceful quests of the subjects with brutality and cruelty of unheard proportion in Empire's history. The military commanders of the TPLF, blatantly terrorize unarmed civilians in front of the oblivious Western diplomats whose mouths remain zipped when vested interests' posse eerie silence. Whilst the said oblivious diplomats watching in front of their noses, the TPLF's killing machines who are mainly trained and equipped with modern snipers by the USA, France, the UK and some other EU countries military and security personnel, summarily execute the unarmed Oromo, Ogadenia, Amhara, Gambella, Konso, Sidama and the rest peoples of various nations. Obliviously, regardless, they pore aid money to date. To have such confidence in executing unarmed civilians and mass arresting tens of thousands of civilians, the TPLF's politicians often receive tacit agreement from their surreptitiously watching Western sponsors who always pay deaf ears and blind eyes to the suffering of the majority of stakeholders.
West's politicians, particularly during the era of Tony Blair's Premiership, when once TPLF's late leader PM Meles Zenawi, was regarded as their darling; the West has tacitly given him outright authority to do whatever he wishes on his subjects as long he runs their agenda in the horn. This has been obliviously reinforced by the repeated visits of the USA's, Germany's and UK's leaders and high level officials including last year's visit of the USA's former president, Barak Obama. Their Medias remain as oblivious as their politicians, whilst wasting their time talking about the ailing Robert Mugabe, instead.
Due to the above geopolitical interests of the West and concomitant silence in the face of unfolding executions, the TPLF ruthless regime became bold, callously, blunt, confident, unrepentant and stubbornly determined to assure the subservience of the majority to its barbaric rule. Particularly, with this end, it is the Oromo nation to be mainly focused upon, the Amhara standing the second in the queue. The ultimate reasons why the Tigrean regime is focusing on brutalizing the Oromo nation is twofold. The first is the Oromo's economic importance for its plan of exponentially increasing the capacity of their domestic and international bank accounts. Those, TPLF's military commanders, once who were penniless when they occupied Finfinnee (Addis Ababa), over quarter of a century ago, now become multimillionaires by looting, primarily the wealth of the Oromo nation as the region has got vast resources including immense minerals and abundant cash crops; as Oromia remains their primary cash cow. The second reason is the Oromo's being major single entity in Ethiopia. Hence, unless the regime, divides and silences the Oromo nation and the second largest nation of Ethiopia, the Amhara, TPLF knows that its survival will be at stake. Cognizant of this, the regime leaves no stone unturned to humiliate and silence the Oromo nation primarily and the Amhara secondly.
III. TPLF's Erroneous Belief That the Smouldering Fire Has Been Extinguished.
It's imperative that TPLF believes that, it has accomplished its tasks after the imposition of state of emergency. Gullible belief, as far as the situations in Oromia and Amhara regions are concerned. The fire is steadily Smouldering. The same is true in all regions. Moreover, TPLF particularly believes that its infamous quislings have silenced the 4th and 5thlargest nations of the county, the Sidama and Ogaden Sumali. In the cases of both Sidama and Ogadenia, this is the case simply because it uses notorious cadres of the country known for their barbaric actions against their own people whilst implementing TPLF's agenda in their respective regions although in Ogaden, the ONLF is fiercely fighting the enslaving regime. The hideous personalities include, the infamous 'Shiferaw Shigute' who has worked hard to humiliate the Sidama nation time and again whilst facilitating, and committed crimes against the Sidama people in addition to his major roles in displacing tens of thousands of Sidama peasants from their ancestral lands by leaving them destitute. Abdi Mohammed Omar of the Ogaden Sumali (regional puppet president), who is known for his viciousness and blood thirsty nature as his Sidama counterpart, is responsible for the death and incarceration of tens of thousands of Sumali civilians. This is the wicked puppet who is overseeing the official commanding aspect of Ogaden Liyu militia under the watchful eyes of TPLF's generals, whilst implementing the current massacre of the Oromo civilians from east to south east. The two notorious cadres known for their both barbarism and moronic nature, are instrumental in dehumanizing their own peoples and beyond. Besides, the Smouldering fire in Oromia and beyond won't be extinguished until it successfully achieves its objectives.
IV. Is the Division of Oromo Diaspora Playing Against the Oromo's Interests?
If a herd of buffalo remain united creating fence like defense, stands its grounds and doesn't run away from its predators, none of them could be easily devoured. However, once a herd loses its ground, frightened, panicked and start to run away, natural separation occurs -thereby become an easy prey. We human beings are not different. If we are united and defy any oppression, no oppressor on planet will be able to enslave his/her subjects. Nowhere on planet, oppression has been successful unless the subjects are divided, manipulated and mentally defeated to allow themselves to be enslaved. This has been the case during the era of European colonization of Africa and the rest parts of the world; and it is the case as we speak all over the world. This has been the case in human history since mankind began a socially organized life. Yet, failing to assert such simple analogues, we fail time and again. We make the same mistakes repeatedly. This can be the case, when we are less aware of or our ego overrides the needs of our downtrodden groups of society for whom we may claim, are ready to sacrifice our lives, whilst quashing their dream as we continue bickering on little issues.
Finally, I dare to be bold (although I might be told it's none of my business), on the fact that, the division and subdivision of Oromo Diaspora and opposition groups for minor issue is playing to the advantage of the TPLF's ruthless regime. The division of the Oromo Diaspora is allowing to the regime to buy time. The Oromo players must stop, rethink and act quickly to save the situation before it gets out of control, thereby, elongate the suffering of the Oromo people those who are paying ultimate sacrifices with their precious lives day and night. If we remain as stubborn as we seem now, let all of us not forget that we're committing inexcusable historical error. Humbly, I remotely believe that any Oromo wants this to be the case. Therefore, it's now, the right time to act.
V. The Silence of The Sidama Nation Must Come to An End!
The relationship of Oromo and Sidama nations is much deeper than mere solidarity, one might entertain as a temporary show case only benefiting politico-diplomatic gesture. Both Kush brothers share deeper unity in several ways. Their view of the world around them and beyond, their perception of justice and equality as well as governance under egalitarian systems 'Gadaa and Luwa', their religious belief are of similar nature, not only they are of similar stock. The Sidama and the Oromo nation share numerous attributes- not exhaustively such as cultural and psychological as well as socio-economic. Their being are closely intertwined in such a manner that, sometimes becomes indistinguishable. If one studies the Arusi and Bale Oromo and traditional Sidama society, their stark similarities are unprecedented.
Moreover, Oromo and Sidama nations' resistance movements predate the creation of the current barbaric incumbent, TPLF. Since Hailesilassie and prior to the latter, including during the Abyssinian king, Menelik II, Oromo and Sidama nation have shared both bad and good times together. They have been in quest for their liberty and freedom taken away from them together. Both nation are the victims of the current injustice. Whilst the Tigreans were part and parcels of the subjugating empire, the solidarity of the Sidama and Oromo has been there. Therefore, at this critical moment in the history of the Oromo nation, while its sons and daughters are gunned-down in broad day lights by Tigrean barbaric regime; to me as a principled Sidama man, the current uncustomary silence of the nation is extremely unsettling. Thus, I urge the Sidama nation to rise and walk shoulder to shoulder with its Oromo brothers and sisters. The propaganda of the regime conveyed and enforced through notorious 'Shiferaw Shigute' network, evidently, so far has confused the Sidama nation. Such deceitful propagandas should be critically considered and scrutinized to be eventually regurgitated. There is no excuse, for the current silence, thus I reiterate that, the Sidama must stand with its Oromo cousins and disallow its land from being used by the TPLF's brutal regime, to incarcerate and torture Oromo brothers and sisters, old and young alike.
VI. The Unity of All Peoples of Ethiopia Is Paramount to Dismantle Brutal TPLF.
Having a meticulously planned objective; using violence, assassination, massacres, land confiscation and expropriation of the entire wealth of the country, for the last 26 years, the TPLF's regime has demonstrated its virulence to all peoples of the country. Not only to the other peoples, it has also shown its hideous nature to its own people to achieve its objectives. A good example could be drawn from its barbaric action when it has masterminded the massacre in 'Hawzen' market place where hundreds of Tigray civilians have been mercilessly bombed by the fighter jet coordinated by TPLF. Its action was planned to blame on its predecessors to gain international sympathy. Therefore, the TPLF's regime has time again shown its barbarism and viciousness to all peoples of the country. The solution, thus is needing a strategic unity, maintaining differences as they are, until we get rid of this ruthless regime. The current revolution started by gallant Oromo nation is serving as a vehicle to achieve such objectives, thus shouldn't be aborted by the brutal crackdown on a peaceful and purpose-driven Oromo youth and the entire nation.
All peoples of Ethiopia need to synchronize their struggle, temporarily leaving their petty differences aside, until this bestial regime is brought down to its knees. We must, rethink our actions before we rush into entertaining petty differences whilst men and women, youth and old citizens are gunned-down in broad day light in all parts of the country. None of us can afford continuing in such heartless and soulless manner; if we genuinely aspire the emaciation of our nations and peoples from over a quarter of a century subjugation and brutality of unprecedented scale. The time is today. Let's move with strategic togetherness before it's too late.

Stuff does that, though, doesn't it? Creeps up on you… You struggle to do things laboriously, knowing acutely that you are doing things wrong or badly or just taking way too long to get any kind of results. You start off diffidently, self-consciously… carefully. You may notice the initial progress, because you are concentrating so hard, but from there to competence and confidence is a huge leap and we tend not to see it happening.
I remember learning to drive. There was a first driving lesson as a teenager, then the drunk driver that rearranged my face made me too scared to drive for years. I hated cars. Even as a passenger… as I had been when the accident happened. I cringed if I had to get in one but thankfully, living in the city, I walked pretty much everywhere and if not, I could always take a bus.
Moving here there was little public transport available and it was pricey, so we walked. It is a small town after all, and everything was accessible. If we wanted to go off for the day as a family, we walked too….miles and miles with the boys, teaching them the things of field and hedgerow, history, myth and legend as we went.
Then my partner, already severely hampered by acute arthritis, was diagnosed with cancer. That was the spur that made the difference. He had been unable to drive for some time and the hospital was an hour's journey away. I learned to drive. Terrified at the wheel… a real white knuckle ride for both me and Derek, my instructor. I recall that very first lesson… most of it sitting in a lane while he explained things, then being made to drive with one hand in my lap to prove I could relax the adamantine grip on the wheel and still retain control of the monster that was the car.
Since then I have clocked up more thousands of miles than I could calculate, driven 1800miles every weekend for one job for a year, zipped in and out of the BBC headquarters in London eight times a day for another, been a white van driver… and loved every minute of it. Nowadays I spend more time in the car some days than I do in bed and I love driving.
But every so often I remember those early days of terror and ineptitude and I can barely trace the path between.
The same subject was raised today by my son regarding his recovery. We remember the major milestones from paralysis to skydive but the small ones creep up and seem to slip under the razor wire of awareness until something calls them specifically to the attention. He had been talking to his younger brother about it… a long time biker who passed his car test yesterday, so of course the same analogy had come up. He didn't need to say so, there is a particular longsuffering look when these little coincidences happen between the three of us. We just know.
So I was thinking about it all on the way home. It isn't just the good things that creep up, of course, the less good do so with equal stealth… age, illness, the seemingly unavoidable messy stages of life when all seems a muddle. Some things are inevitable, of course. Others, in retrospect, we can trace back to their beginnings; to a particular sequence of events, even to a single choice or decision.
The awareness of what we do is part and parcel of stopping these downward spirals; nipping them in the bud before they can set seed and spread wider than we can handle… or indeed of encouraging their growth so that they can bloom and fill the gardens of our lives with colour and fragrance.

Such a lovely post. Reading it I felt like I was a part of it somehow!
change brings change into our life, some good, some bad, some we welcome, some we fear and in the end, we seem to muddle through it all somehow.
All change has the potential for good, I think… not necessarily pleasant… but the possibilities of movement versus stasis are infinitely better.
yes, agree, sometimes reluctantly but yes!

Q: RSS User feed consistency/usability issue The idea of an RSS feed for a single users activity is a great idea and I could see it being very useful as a way to track everything that a highly active and productive user does, or a way of displaying your StackOverflow activity on say a blog or something like that.
However, currently it's kind of hard to use because most of the entries lack context. If I update a question or answer it just puts the whole question or answer back in the feed and doesn't mention that it was just an edit or change. I know I can compare the published date to the updated date, but why not make this consistent with the way answers show up in the feed by being prepended by "Answer By User"? Couldn't it have "Update By User" for the updated entries
In addition is there a reason comments are not considered part of User activity in the feed? A lot of people's comments are just as valuable as answers and I'd like to keep up with those via RSS as well.

Where else can I find your music?
Do you post your music on any other web sites? Yes. I have my music on several different web sites as a way to promote myself. I have included a list below of some of the sites where you can find my music.
SoundClick.com is a great site. It has a lot of tools for the independent artist to promote his/herself. It also has a rating system with daily updated charts.
ReasonStation.net is a site for people who create music using Propellerheads Reason software. It's a great community of music producers of all levels and various genres. This is where I get some good critiques on the more techincal aspects of my tracks.
This is the official site of the makers of Reason, the software I use to create my tracks. I posted a few songs on their site early on.
Zed is a site that I am currently checking out. The user base is overseas and I'm looking into it to get a better international exposure.


In August 1953, 104 students formed the first classes at the Holy Family School. With no specific school building, they met at the Saint Thomas Orphanage for the first year. The original school building was built in September, 1954. The student body almost doubled to 205 children in grades K-8 who studied with the Benedictine Sisters from Yankton, SD. When the Cathedral was built in 1965, Holy Family School became Cathedral of the Risen Christ School. Since this time the school has increased in size twice by additional construction. Today's student body has doubled again to 400 students in grades K-8, as well as 50 students in preschool.
Liturgy plays a central role for each student and staff members at Cathedral. Daily attendance at Mass, with students participating in preparation, reading, petitions, and offertory places the Mass in first priority. Core subjects of religion, math, science, social studies, reading, and literature are taught on a daily basis, with new, updated materials always available.
Cathedral school has initiated other programs to provide services to the community. A preschool program began in 1991 to provide classes for children from ages three through five. In 1992, the Extended Daycare Program was opened. This program provides before and after school care for students attending Cathedral. In 1996, the Cathedral Holy Family Care Center was created. This center provides year-round, all-day care for children from ages 3 years through sixth grade. All three of these programs are housed in the Holy Family Child Care Center.


Whether you're planning to spend a long weekend in the Czech Republic, a fortnight abroad in Germany, or an entire summer traveling around the continent by Eurorail, you should know what are the most important things you have to take with you for a European trip.
Once you start planning, it's tempting to expand your European journey from a single destination to several. Inexpensive local rail system makes it easier to explore multiple countries during a single trip. Packing multiple destinations, cultural experiences and activities into a single trip can make for one incredible adventure, but it can also make packing itself a challenge.
To help you plan your trip to Europe, we have made a list of essentials an active lover of new countries and unique routes can't do without. We have also prepared some useful tricks for packing a bag for a European tour. If you want to get maximum impressions from your holiday, we will tell you how to reduce the volume of your suitcase and take the most important things.
Experienced IT-travelers created a mobile app "Baggage packing list" for packing a suitcase, so even if you're an experienced traveler, you will find useful ideas there. This application offers a list of what is needed on every trip ideally.
For example, with the help of this app, you will not forget a swimsuit, which can be useful even in winter, in a hotel or in a thermal pool, especially if you go to Budapest. This app will also remind you to take a spare memory card. The app can be loaded here.
Mind changeable European weather. The weather in Europe is constantly changing, often going from warm and sunny to wet and chilly in a single day. So don't bring clothing designed for only one climate or weather. Everything you bring should be able to be worn in any weather. Winter-weight fabrics will weigh you down and frustrate you on the road. Focus on versatility and layer-ability.
Stay comfortable and stylish. You can always find a stylish piece that can be layered with other options to make it perfect for any climate. Use layers to dress smartly and look good.
When packing travel clothes for Europe, make sure you always stay comfortable and stylish by choosing clothing that you can layer, selecting thin breathable fabrics like cotton, and knits that can keep you warm in the early morning and are easily peeled back as the temperature rises. Pack one lighter waterproof jacket in your luggage and wear or carry a heavier jacket or coat to save space.
Base Layers. Be thoughtful about your base layers and choose wisely. You'll need several high quality, breathable base layers that you can wear basically all the time. Your list should include underwear (plus long underwear or tights for a trip through cold weather), undershirts, socks, and T-shirts.
Wool or microfiber. These base layers should be made of wool or synthetic microfiber. They're both breathable. Also, when you're hot, wool and microfiber wick sweat away from you; when you're cold, they keep you warm. They also tend to not get stinky as cotton does.
What is even more important, these two fabrics is that they dry quickly. If any of your base layers happen to get wet or sweaty, they'll always be ready to wear again after a few hours of air drying.
Over-pack socks and underwear. Stuff them into your shoes and between the small, empty spaces in your bag. You can never have too many fresh pairs of either essential. One pair of long underwear for both top and bottom will be sufficient. Long underwear makes jeans and any long sleeve shirt an ideal outfit for even the most frigid conditions.
Take walking shoes for the cobblestone streets. Thanks to the European cobblestone streets, walking around most places in Europe is far more comfortable when you're wearing a comfortable pair of walking shoes, with plenty of support and cushion. Fortunately, there are some really stylish ones out there that can also look good when going out to dinner at a nice restaurant.
What's the best way to pack shoes? For Europe, try to limit your shoe packing to two pairs: one open-air pair of sandals and one closed shoe that can be worn with socks. If you are planning a trip to a different climate zone or with a kid, you will have to take some more pairs of shoes.
Take Apple MacBook or a light laptop. There is nothing revolutionary or surprising in this if there is simply a need to work on the road. The screen size should not exceed 12 inches. They are lightweight but quite convenient to solve various tasks: work on the Internet, write articles, chat with friends and colleagues, edit photos, visit social networks, etc.
A good smartphone gives you the opportunity to listen to music, quickly access the Internet to view the map, connect with friends, watch a movie, etc.
Universal battery charger. Comments are not needed here. A high-quality charger will allow you to charge all the gadgets that you take on a trip.
Take high-quality headphones. True travelers realized one important thing—you shouldn't save on headphones. Good headphones allow you to enjoy music and movies. Therefore, if you think what to take with you on a trip, be sure to buy high-quality headphones that provide good sound.
It is recommended to have two sets of headphones: large, a good option for the aircraft, and compact, vacuum, good for running or fast walking.
A USB Universal Travel Adapter is necessary for plug-in items in Europe, as it offers various prong configurations to use with plugs found in different countries.
An SLR camera allows making high-quality pictures. You can't do without a camera when traveling around Europe. Modern smartphones can take good pictures, but the overall level of pictures is lower in comparison with a camera.
You may also take the Mp3 player for music, reading material or device and a watch. And most important, don't forget to take plenty of SD card storage for your incredible photos!
Don't forget the smaller essentials you'll need on your journey. Don't forget about a travel pillow and blanket, travel towel, sleep mask, and ear plugs. These things are quite essential, especially during airplane flights and train journeys, or during overnight stays in hostels.
Other useful items to put on your packing list are a Travel Safe TSA lock and cable for your luggage. It's helpful when going on trains or buses to prevent theft.
To be eco-friendly, take your own water bottle; most water in Europe can be shipped directly from the tap, and many cities have public drinking fountains for filling up.
You should consider taking a belt or hidden wallet, but it can be rather inconvenient. We also recommend using a special travel wallet, in which you can store money and bank cards.
Take a toiletry kit with personal cosmetics, tissues, shampoo, shower gel, sunscreen, lip balm, and comb. But try to keep it minimal. Solid or dry shampoo is light, comfortable and suitable for hand luggage. If there is a problem with a shower, then the hair even without water will look fresh.
Don't forget about a small medicine bag, including aspirin, upset stomach pills, and motion sickness medicine.
Finally, use a bright suitcase cover to prevent your luggage from getting dirty. It will not be lost and will attract the attention of other travelers with bright colors.
Now you know exactly what to take with you. Of course, there are other things that you will need. However, this list will allow you to make your trip much more comfortable.
Packing can be overwhelming if you don't have a plan, so spend some time making a list well in advance of your trip. It's also important to do some research on the best travel bags and the best luggage for European travel. Strategically plan what you're going to take so that you have the best carry on a backpack or the best lightweight luggage.
To sum up, pack a lightweight, hooded waterproof breathable jacket and warmer jacket or coat, several tops that can layer together, a pair of jeans and another pants or shorts, a swimsuit, two pairs of comfortable walking shoes and several pairs of socks and underwear. And don't forget about essential travel accessories and electronic devices.
Remember, if you do forget something or need something else, you can always buy it once you reach your European destination. Have a nice trip to Europe!

2 Californians charged in shooting of man dumped at sea
December 19, 2019 GMT
SANTA ANA, Calif. (AP) — Two people were arrested Thursday in connection with the shooting death of a man whose body was dumped at sea off the coast of California.
Hoang Xuan Le, 38, was charged with murder and 40-year-old Sheila Marie Ritze was charged with being an accessory after the fact, the U.S. Attorney's Office said in a statement.
Authorities said in court papers they believe the victim headed out for a fishing trip in October when he was killed over a debt. His body was dumped at sea and found two days later, the statement said.
More than a week later, a person reached out to the victim's family and said Le had confessed to killing the victim because he owed him money, the statement said. That person was not identified by authorities, nor was the victim.
Authorities said Ritze owned the boat and was linked to the killing through cellphone and surveillance data that placed her in the harbor when the boat left and returned without the victim.
The suspects were arrested by the FBI and were expected to appear in federal court in Santa Ana later on Thursday.
A message was left for Le's attorney. Ritze's attorney said he had not yet received information about the case.

Colony leader killed after taking several Starfleet hostages
January 17, 2015by Federation News Service in Columbia
PERNIPIA GAMMA IV — After numerous attempts to compromise the colonization of Pernipia, rogue colony leader Robert Carson was killed in a final confrontation with Starfleet officers.
"I don't know about you sir, but I'm not convinced there can be a peaceful resolution," security officer Lt. Tyler Kelly was reported to have said to his commanding officer Commander Ben Livingston of the USS Columbia, foreshadowing the deadly showdown.
The crew of the Columbia had brought a group of colonists to Pernipia Gamma IV, where they were soon joined by a Klingon vessel, the IPS Rapier. The Klingon ship was soon taken over by its first officer, an intelligence officer working undercover and on a mission to catch Carson.
Meanwhile, after a cunning breach into the Columbia's systems, Carson escaped from the brig. Once again, he used violence and Counselor Ceilidh Riverview, who had been interviewing him, ended up in sickbay. With the help of his associate Gerard, Carson then reached the Columbia's bridge. There, upon discovering that the Rapier had betrayed them, the two colonists forced Commander Livingston, Ens. Ian Connory and Lt. Vitor Silveira to go to the captain's ready room.
Security and engineering worked promptly on transporting the criminals elsewhere. After a crafty distraction involving a replicator that exploded, Carson, Gerard and, by inadvertence, Silveira, were sent to cargo bay 2. Unfortunately, as effective as the diversion had been, the explosion also knocked out Connory.
Realizing that his options were running low, Carson insisted on speaking with a negotiator, Lt. Cmdr. Sal Taybrim, but this was not to be as Lt. Kelly came to the rescue of Silveira. An intense fight ensued, during which Silveira was stabbed and Kelly nearly killed. Thankfully Silveira managed to throw a phaser towards Kelly, who grabbed the weapon and killed Carson.
On Pernipia, Lt. Cmdr. Brek's away team returned to the cave, in hot pursuit of a Pakled who had captured a security officer. They caught him without too much difficulty and beamed back aboard the Columbia.
Having killed the Rapier's crew, the first officer destroyed the ship and, accompanied with the tactical officer, fled in escape pods. They regrouped on the Columbia and left the area in an unmarked runabout.
Once the crew had recovered from their ordeal, they rejoined on Pernipia for a well-deserved shore leave near a lagoon. There, the traditional end of the year awards ceremony took place.

US cybersecurity agency warns of 'grave' threat from hack
FILE - The U.S. Treasury Department building viewed from the Washington Monument, Wednesday, Sept. 18, 2019, in Washington. Hackers got into computers at the U.S. Treasury Department and possibly other federal agencies, touching off a government response involving the National Security Council.

By BEN FOX Associated Press
WASHINGTON (AP) — Federal authorities expressed increased alarm Thursday about an intrusion into U.S. and other computer systems around the globe that officials suspect was carried out by Russian hackers. The nation's cybersecurity agency warned of a "grave" risk to government and private networks.
The Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency said in its most detailed comments yet that the intrusion had compromised federal agencies as well as "critical infrastructure" in a sophisticated attack that was hard to detect and will be difficult to undo.
CISA did not say which agencies or infrastructure had been breached or what information taken in an attack that it previously said appeared to have begun in March.
"This threat actor has demonstrated sophistication and complex tradecraft in these intrusions," the agency said in its unusual alert. "CISA expects that removing the threat actor from compromised environments will be highly complex and challenging."
President Donald Trump, whose administration has been criticized for eliminating a White House cybersecurity adviser and downplaying Russian interference in the 2016 presidential election, has made no public statements about the breach.
President-elect Joe Biden said he would make cybersecurity a top priority of his administration, but that stronger defenses are not enough.
"We need to disrupt and deter our adversaries from undertaking significant cyberattacks in the first place," he said. "We will do that by, among other things, imposing substantial costs on those responsible for such malicious attacks, including in coordination with our allies and partners."
The cybersecurity agency previously said the perpetrators had used network management software from Texas-based SolarWinds t o infiltrate computer networks. Its new alert said the attackers may have used other methods, as well.
Over the weekend, amid reports that the Treasury and Commerce departments were breached, CISA directed all civilian agencies of the federal government to remove SolarWinds from their servers. The cybersecurity agencies of Britain and Ireland issued similar alerts.
A U.S. official previously told The Associated Press that Russia-based hackers were suspected, but neither CISA nor the FBI has publicly said who is believed be responsible. Asked whether Russia was behind the attack, the official said: "We believe so. We haven't said that publicly yet because it isn't 100% confirmed."
Another U.S. official, speaking Thursday on condition of anonymity to discuss a matter that is under investigation, said the hack was severe and extremely damaging although the administration was not yet ready to publicly blame anyone for it.
"This is looking like it's the worst hacking case in the history of America," the official said. "They got into everything."
The official said the administration is working on the assumption that most, if not all, government agencies were compromised but the extent of the damage was not yet known.

About Gate A1
Avelo Airlines lands on the east coast
Shortly after its first flight end of April, Avelo Airlines, the new American low-cost airline, announces new destinations from an east coast focus city: New Haven.
New aircraft, destinations, and focus city far away from its first foray, Avelo don't want to be limited to one part of the country.
The new focus city is New Haven, 100km from Manatahan, and it will be a change for Tweed-New Haven airport.
Currently, only American airlines connect the Connecticut airport to Philadelphia. The AA service is now operated with Embraer 175 aircraft, and the number of passengers stayed below the 40k mark.
The destination map of this airport looks fake and desperate for content. Instead of linking the only destination, it shows all the possible connections via Philadelphia.
The arrival of Avelo will mark a change in New Haven airport's history.
Avelo new destinations that are not yet known. Avelo AIrlines will disclose them closer to the start of the New Heaven operations.
The only issue with this airport is the runway length. The future outlook plan of the airport recognizes this weakness. Allegiant, once approached, clearly mentioned that the usable runway should be at least 6000 feet long before they even consider the New Heaven market.
However, the airport needed a low-cost or ultra-low-cost carrier to start service to continue its growth.
Luckily for them, Avelo was looking for underserved markets on the east coast. With a catching area of 2.2 million people and no low-cost competition at all, it was an excellent opportunity. However, Avelo Airlines still faces one issue: the runway length.
Boeing 737-800 and Airbus A320 in low-cost configuration could not operate efficiently from New heaven. However, Airbus A319 or Boeing 737-700 can. This reason forced Avelo to add Boeing 737-700 to its fleet. While a different aircraft from the Boeing 737-800 that the company already operates from Burbank in California, it's in the same generation of Boeing 737 and shares the same commonality.
Afterward, it will be interesting to see when the Austin-based airline's east and west coast network will reach each other.

The Central Bank of Russia announced that the country's ninth-largest bank, Promsvyazbank, will become a "bank to service enterprises of the military-defense complex," the publication reported.
The Russian Central Bank nationalized "Promsvyazbank" last year. At the same time, the Kremlin began to discuss the creation of a new defense bank in the framework of measures to counter US sanctions against Russian defense enterprises.
Russian Finance Minister Siluanov is also preparing to issue bonds worth $ 3 billion in order for Russian oligarchs to be able to regain their fortune in Russia from abroad because of fears of sanctions.
Perhaps, Promsvyazbank will take over the crediting of defense enterprises from large state borrowers, such as Sberbank and VTB, according to Aleksandr Danilov, an analyst at Fitch Ratings, the FT reports.
Promsvyazbank is likely to fall under the restrictions like those acting in relation to "Russia" and SMP banks owned by Putin's childhood friends, and which are blocked by Visa and MasterCard and cannot conduct transactions with foreign currency, Danilov said.
QHA reported that the "Kremlin report" published by the US Treasury would lead to new sanctions against Russia.

Hi ! I'm Festus...
I have lived in Bedfordshire for a decade and my children all go to school in the county. I recently completed 400hrs of service as a Special Constable with Bedfordshire Police, 220hrs of which were on frontline response duties as an officer.
Some of my frontline response duties included shifts in Luton, Bedford, Ampthill, Biggleswade, Leighton Buzzard, Dunstable and much of the central and northern areas of our county.
Other volunteering roles
I currently sit on the board of directors of a YMCA where I work with colleagues to oversee the delivery of housing and other support services to vulnerable young people. We recently and successfully delivered on a £20m housing construction project which now provides supported accommodation to nearly 200 young people.
I have also been volunteering at covid vaccination centres across Bedfordshire.
I was a board member at a Further Education College and served as link governor for the Offender Learning and Skills Services team which delivered training and education in prisons. Prior to this, I volunteered as mentor to young offenders at a secure training centre – working especially with those who had children, to gain practical parenting skills.
I am a former Parish Councillor and my proudest moment during my tenure was getting the unanimous buy-in of my colleagues for the Council to fully fund a Youth Club, staffed by a professional Youth Worker, following a rise in anti-social behaviour especially at nights in the area

RE/MAX cashes in on Israel's Illegal Settlements
The Israeli government's recent announcement that it had authorized the building of another 1,000 settlement homes in East Jerusalem left the US government seeing red, with State Department spokeswoman Jen Psaki calling the settlement activity "illegitimate" and "incompatible with the pursuit of peace." But the announcement must have left the US-based real estate giant RE/MAX "seeing green," ready to cash in on the sale and rental of more illegal settlement homes.
Look around your neighborhood at homes for sale and you will undoubtedly see RE/MAX's ubiquitous signs sporting red, white and blue hot air balloons. What started out as a mom-and-pop office in Denver, Colorado in 1973 is now a corporate giant, with some 100,000 sales agents in over 90 countries. RE/MAX claims to have "the largest business volume in the world," adding an average of 1.6 new franchises each day. Its yearly revenues surpass $150 million, derived from fees from its franchisee, annual dues from agents, broker fees, and franchise sales.
Among the 90 countries with RE/MAX franchises is in Israel. Since its entry into the Israeli market in 1995, RE/MAX has become the largest network of real estate agencies in Israel, boasting 100 branches and over 900 real estate agents in this small country roughly the size of New Jersey.
But here is the problem. RE/MAX Israel sells properties that are not only in Israel proper, but are also in occupied Palestinian lands of the West Bank. While Palestinian homes and olive groves are bulldozed to make way for new settlements, Israeli RE/MAX agents are doing business in all the major West Bank settlements, including Adam, Beit Arye, Beit El, Giva'at Ze'ev, Ma'ale Adumim, Oranit, Salit, Sha'arei Tikva and Zufim. In occupied East Jerusalem, the company markets and rents properties in the settlement neighborhoods of Gilo, Har Homa, Ramot, French Hill and Pisgat Ze'ev.
RE/MAX Israel even has an office in Ma'ale Adumim, a settlement strategically located between the northern and southern parts of the West Bank, breaking up the territorial continuity of any possible future Palestinian state. A UN Commission on Human Rights report stated that Ma'ale Adumim, along with the settlements Gush Etzion and Ariel, will effectively divide Palestinian territory into "cantons or Bantustans."
The Fourth Geneva Convention (Article 49) prohibits an occupying power from transferring citizens from its own territory to occupied territory. There are now over 500,000 Jewish settlers living the West Bank in violation of international law. Many are Jewish immigrants from around the world who take advantage of Israel's 1950 Law of Return that grants automatic citizenship rights to Jews from anywhere in the world upon request, while denying that same right to Palestinians.
The settlements cater to young Israeli couples, first-time buyers who have been priced out of the expensive urban market and are enticed by subsidized settlement housing. RE/MAX Israel also caters to wealthy diaspora Jews wanting to relocate to Israel, or to have a second home there. Perusing its website, you can find—for a cool $1 million—a 4,000 square-foot villa just minutes from Jerusalem, "at the end of a quiet cul-de-sac" in the settlement of Ma'ale Adumim. It comes with 6 bedrooms (including a 500 square-foot master bedroom suite with balcony), 2 kitchens, and a 2-car garage. Outside, the photos show a huge tiled patio and wooden deck with a breathtaking view, including beautifully landscaped gardens with waterfalls, fruit and olive trees.
Too expensive? Try a $300,000 condo in an East Jerusalem settlement (French Hill), boasting a designer kitchen with Italian granite. It's on a high floor in a fully secured building, complete with a Shabbat elevator. Still too much? How about a $180,000 bargain studio apartment within walking distance of Hebrew University and Hadassa in a community of English-speaking immigrants?
While Palestinians slip even deeper into poverty, Israel's real estate industry is booming. But Bernard Raskin, a Zimbabwe-born former academic from South Africa who sits atop RE/MAX Israel's empire, laments the limited supply of land in this small country. He says that Israel's real estate market is suffering from a severe shortage of housing stock available for purchase. That's where the further expansion of illegal settlements comes in.
According to a report by UN Special Rapporteur Richard Falk, by selling properties on Palestinian land, RE/MAX International is "directly contributing to adverse human rights impacts, such as the restrictions on freedom of movement that obstruct Palestinians' access to land, which is often used for agricultural purposes, and arbitrary and unlawful interference with Palestinians' privacy, family and home." Selling property in settlements, the report concludes, "contributes to the commission of the international crime of transferring citizens of the Occupying Power onto occupied territory."
RE/MAX International's code of ethics states that its affiliates "shall undertake to eliminate any practice by real estate professionals in their community which could be damaging to the public". The establishment of settlements is clearly damaging to the Palestinian sector of the public and enables the continued violation of Palestinian human rights.
In November, the US-based peace group CODEPINK launched a campaign "Boycott RE/MAX: No Open Homes on Stolen Land", asking the company to cut its ties with franchises involved in the sale or rental of settlement properties. The RE/MAX campaign is part of the international Boycott, Divestment and Sanctions (BDS) movement, a call by Palestinian civil society to engage in non-violent activism to end these injustices by boycotting companies and institutions that are complicit in Israel's occupation and its discriminatory practices against Palestinians.
CODEPINK sent a letter to RE/MAX CEO board chair David Liniger but got no response. So it encouraged its 200,000 supporters to call and email the Denver-based headquarters, which tried to distance itself from the practices of its Israeli franchises. "You wouldn't call the head office of McDonalds if you didn't like the hamburger you got at your local restaurant," one RE/MAX telephone operator quipped, "so I don't think you can hold us responsible for what someone is doing in Israel."
But RE/MAX International does not just tolerate the actions of its Israeli affiliate, it directly profits from the the sale of homes in the occupied Palestinian territories. RE/MAX International lends its name, gives the stamp of approval, and provides start-up and ongoing training, technological resources, and advertising and marketing support to its franchisees. In return, it receives one percent of the revenue of sales and a flat fee per associate.
CODEPINK is also encouraging RE/MAX shareholders to contact the company. Peter Crow from Investor Relations told me that the RE/MAX office in the settlement was a "rogue office" that they were trying to shut down. But activists are not just concerned about the location of one office; their concern is RE/MAX complicity in the sale of Jewish-only settlement homes and its relation to the larger reality of displacement, dispossession and oppression of Palestinians.
CODEPINK organizer Sophia Armen is planning the next phase of the Boycott RE/MAX: No Open House on Stolen Land campaign. "Since RE/MAX has offices all over the world, we'll be organizing globally. Already, pro-Palestinian groups from India to South Africa are building efforts to picket RE/MAX offices and open houses until RE/MAX complies with international law," says Armen. "As international people of conscience, we must harness our global power to ensure human rights for all."
Authors note: Since the original publication of this article, RE/MAX has issued a press statement distancing the International RE/MAX from autonomous franchisees. It acknowledges "there is only one RE/MAX office remaining in the West Bank, and RE/MAX LLC is exploring possible options for this office." It claims UN Report on the Palestinian territories distributed in 2013 contained factual errors, and that "there is only one RE/MAX office remaining in the West Bank, and RE/MAX LLC is exploring possible options for this office."

When Mr Andy Wong, 31, told his former colleagues in a gas manufacturing company he was switching to the wafer fabrication industry, they were surprised.
"They said to survive in wafer fab you need a very different mindset," he said. Indeed, he had to undergo over six months of training to understand the stringent management system behind the manufacturing process of wafers, which are used to make the chips in things such as mobile phones and laptops.
The management system governs the quality, safety, health and environment aspects of production, which is what Mr Wong oversees as a quality and reliability assurance engineer at Systems on Silicon Manufacturing Company (SSMC).
"I wanted to deepen my competency in management systems in a different industry," said the chemical engineering graduate, who made the switch nearly a year ago.
Local professionals, managers, executives and technicians (PMETs) like Mr Wong will have more help switching to the wafer fabrication industry with a new professional conversion programme launched by the Singapore Workforce Development Agency (WDA) yesterday.
I wanted to deepen my competency in management systems in a different industry.
MR ANDY WONG, a chemical engineering graduate, who made the switch to the wafer fabrication industry nearly a year ago.
The programme, part of the Adapt and Grow initiative announced in this year's Budget, provides training for mid-career workers who want to become engineers or assistant engineers in wafer fab plants here. Three of the five major wafer fab companies here, including SSMC, have committed to participating in the programme and are projected to hire up to 70 local PMETs over the next 12 months.
The industry is still showing healthy demand for workers despite economic restructuring, with 500 vacancies this year, said WDA chief executive Ng Cher Pong.
"As the economy restructures, we recognise that there will be a significant number of Singaporeans who will be displaced from their current jobs," he said. "We're planning to do many more (professional conversion programmes) in different sectors where there are good jobs, where the industry is still growing and where the employment growth is still strong."
Workers on the new programme will be placed in jobs and receive six to 12 months of training, both in-house and under the Singapore Workforce Skills Qualifications.
About eight in 10 PMETs employed in the industry are locals, said Manpower Minister Lim Swee Say at the launch at SSMC in Pasir Ris. He said Singapore's "love affair" with wafer fab began in the 1990s, with aggressive efforts to build up enough water, land and manpower here to support the industry. "We created an advantage where we didn't have a natural advantage... I'm happy to say this love affair is still going strong," he said.
Also at the event yesterday, SSMC announced that it will be providing all its employees with $500 learning credits each that can be used over the next two years. It also launched a training facility called the L.E.A.N. Centre, which will be used to train potentially more than 500 staff over the next three years.


The second error was there because of the change to multiarch in debian. The old file list file for libc was called libc6.list. Theoretically one could just rename the /var/lib/dpkg/info/libc6.list to /var/lib/dpkg/info/libc6:i386.list, but with the above command it is assured that the list file will contain exactly what is included in the deb package.

Dark Days Ahead For YouTube After Australian Government Joins Advertising Boycott
By Zara Ali
Google is witnessing dark days after its inappropriate ad-placement received a major backlash from popular brands like L'Oréal, PepsiCo, and others. Latest entry in the exit string is Australian government which has announced the suspension of all of its advertisements from YouTube.
Today, the Australian Government is withdrawing "all non-corporate campaign advertising" from YouTube. This decision is a repercussion of YouTube placing ads on extremist channels and videos that support terrorist activities. Recently, US-based brands like Wal-Mart, PepsiCo, and AT&T discontinued their ad partnership with YouTube along with some UK-based brands like The Guardian.
Advertisements from Department of Health to Defence Force recruiting ads by Australian Government will no longer appear on the video-streaming website. However, this does not include ads from government-backed corporations like Australia Post. Australian Government is not the first one to assert suspension; even British Government followed the same drill to oppose YouTube's inconsiderate ad placement tools.
Google also released a statement earlier, stating that it will work on its ad-placement techniques to make sure that this behaviour does not continue but just a statement is not enough to keep the brands hooked. British Government suspended its ads after they were featured on videos from Klux Klan leader David Duke.
Commenting on the decision to withdraw ads from YouTube, Australian Special Minister of State Senator Scott Ryan said, it would block taxpayer money from "inadvertently flowing to unsavory organizations" via YouTube. "The Australian Government... will continue to request updates from Google on the steps being taken to mitigate risks," he added.
Sighting the bulk exit from its ad programs, Google says that it is already performing an "extensive review." Of its advertising policies. And it expects to "give brands more control over where their ads appear."
Given the exodus from YouTube advertising, we hope that Google thoroughly reviews everything that is wrong with its ad-placement tools and policies. If it fails to make amendments, then we can expect more brands to take the exit route as the display of ads on extremist videos not only harm the brand image, but it also funds money to trouble groups.
What's your opinion on the exodus spree from YouTube advertising? Do you support the decision of brands and government authorities? Should there be a sterner action? Share your views in the comment section below.

U.S. oil rigs in service were higher this week by 5 with oil production at record highs this week as oil constinues over $73 with Iranian tensions and the Synocrude outage. Bottlenecks remain in the Midland Texas area.
Canada took added 9 oil rigs to 126 in the past week General Electric Co's Baker Hughes reported.
Total North America rig count rose 15 to 1219 up 107 year on year.


The family of beloved Melbourne restaurateur Sisto Malaspina has spoken publicly for the first time since he was killed in a terror attack on Friday.
He said there were still lessons to be learned, mentioning reviewing how Australia assesses it's threats, as well as examining citizenship pathways.
Meanwhile more than Aus$50 000 (US$36 000) has been raised on GoFundMe for a bystander dubbed "trolley man", who was hailed as a hero for trying to stop Shire Ali by knocking him over with a shopping cart.
"The law applies differently, obviously, to someone who has Australian citizenship, by conferral or births, as opposed to someone here on a temporary status because they are the holder of a particular visa category".
Mr Malaspina, 74, was bludgeoned to death by terrorist Hassan Khalif Shire Ali who went on a stabbing frenzy in the city after setting a auto on fire with gas bottles inside.
"You always looked after us like family". He had been born in Somalia, and had come to Australia in the 1990s.
"The judgment made about this individual was that he was not in the planning stage of the attack", Dutton said from Brisbane on Sunday.
"I know there's been a bit of talk about renaming the lane, renaming Crossley Lane, I think that's a fantastic idea and I would fully support that", Mr Andrews told reporters.
"Where you have someone who picks up a kitchen knife and grabs a couple of gas bottles and drives into the CBD, these are very hard circumstances to stop".
"Bearing in mind, the whole episode hasn't really sunk in with us yet, with the family", he said.
"In response, Aly told Sky News Morrison's comments were politically desperate" which only divided the community.
"We'll have to wait for all of that detail, but what we do need is people from the community to provide information".
The 30-year-old, who was reportedly known to authorities, later died in hospital from his wounds.
While it closed up over the weekend as a mark of respect, it has opened its doors again now - welcoming crowds of people to watch the emotional moment, before offering Mr Malaspina's favourite coffee, the long black, for free to all customers for the day.
"Like when the needles in the strawberries was happening, he would give people a discount on their coffees if they showed us they bought strawberries that day".
