HOPE in Queens: Feeding New York's Undocumented Laborers

At nearly 78 years old, Deacon Art Griffin has dedicated over 20 years to helping homeless men and women and now migrant day laborers. Deacon Art is the founder of Project HOPE, which stands for Help Our People Eat, and that is exactly what they do.
Every Tuesday he greets them with a smile and a brown-bagged lunch.
"I've been doing work with the homeless since 1995," he explained.
"Take the average of 40 a week for 50 weeks, and you do it for 10 years, that is 20,000 at least," the number of sandwiches Deacon Art estimates he's handed out since he started offering lunches.
Currents News joined Deacon Art for a ride along to see the impact firsthand, gathering at Transfiguration Church in Queens before loading up his car and hitting the streets.
With an estimated 62,000 homeless and 10,000 undocumented day laborers in New York City, just a look out the car window highlights the crises this humble organization faces.
"Now I see familiar faces," said Frank Griebel, one of a handful of volunteers that make Project Hope possible. He has been by Deacon Art's side since Project Hope's inception 11 years ago.
The program is an offshoot of a previous outreach program founded by Deacon Art, which was defunded by the city in 2007.
"We used to get people with heroin, and addicts and take them to hospitals," Deacon Art recalled.
"We don't really get that now. We get what you see now, the feeding and the conversations, and if they need any help, we try to help."
Just a short drive away, in the basement of St. Stanislaus Kostka Church, Frank's wife, Maureen and four others gather every Monday. They bake bread together, preparing the sandwiches for delivery.
"It depends on the weather," said Frank of what they bring to those in need. "For example, it is summertime so we bring water. In the wintertime, we take out soup."
"It feels good to help someone," said Frank's wife Maureen. They pack each bag with care, hoping it has an impact.
On the street, Deacon Art hands out sandwich after sandwich to thankful hands. And though his mission hasn't changed, the people he serves has. The majority are now undocumented day laborers.
Manuel, who asked that we not use his last name, waits on this corner near Queens Boulevard every day for work.
"Very difficult for the chance to find a job," he explained.
"When there is no work, sometimes we go days, hungry, hungry, hungry…"
He came to America to escape Ecuador's failing economy and violence, and like so many others, in search of a better life.
Manny Castro, Executive Director of New Immigrant Community Empowerment, said that the organization has seen an increase in day laborers because of the city's construction boom and sanctuary city status.
"There is a lot of fear and concern amongst the immigrant community about what is coming next, what they might experience at their work site. There is an increase in anti-immigrant sentiment," he said.
Coming from the diocese of immigrants, Deacon Art helps everyone, no matter when they arrived in the country. This is a service that a service that one worker, who asked to be called John, says is indispensable when work dries up.
"They have been offering their services to us for years, and I respect that so much," he said. "We don't get work and we don't have cash or anything, so they are really helpful."
Here, the need is never ending.

Why Twitch Streamer Crazy Slick Arrested? Who Is Crazy Slick 21-Year-Old YouTuber Accused Of Assaulting Adrianah Lee Another day, another controversy is Brewing on the Twitch streaming platform and everyone wants to know more about CrazySlick. AdrianahLee, a content creator, has been accused of assaulting and violating her. He is the main focus of the whole scandal and currently has over 78000 followers. His frequent collaborations with fellow players make him famous. This case also revealed blackmail.
Why Twitch Streamer Crazy Slick Arrested
It was formed when deleted tweets were added to the highlight. He defended himself, saying that he had never sexually assaulted anyone. Everyone will accuse him of a crime. He is being held accountable for his actions. There were also videos that circulated on the Internet, but there is not much information regarding their legitimacy.
She is 21 years old, has over 28000 Instagram followers, and is bisexual. The creator of the YouTube channel is well-known for her streaming gameplay and videos reacting to others. She joined the platform in 2015. Both sides are still not in agreement and both their followers want to know more about the past. He was unable to tweet the message on September 19th and is now planning to hire a lawyer as soon as possible.
Who Is Crazy Slick
From a distance, this case does not seem very relevant. The favor is still being sent in the mail direction as there is no supporting evidence that could be used against him. Both of them have been content creators themselves and this may have led to mutual controversy. We have seen similar cases in history that benefited both.

The Indian Space Research Organisation (Isro) marked a crucial milestone on Thursday with the successful test of GSLV Mark III, the country's heaviest launch vehicle yet that carried a crew module, taking India a step closer to manned space missions.
The 43.43-metre tall rocket, Crew Module Atmospheric Re-entry Experiment (CARE), took off precisely at 9:30 am from second launch pad at the Satish Dhawan Space Centre (SDSC), on this island in the Bay of Bengal, about 90 km north of Chennai.
The mission assumes more significance as this experimental flight is to validate the complex atmospheric ascent regime of this all new launcher, especially the aerodynamic and control features that cannot be conclusively tested on ground. Isro scientists, including its Chairman K Radhakrishnan, at the mission control centre hugged each other in joy once the rocket ejected out the 3.7 ton crew module, which is the size of small room that can accommodate three persons.
"This is a significant day for the Indian space programme. The performance of the rocket was as expected. We had another experiment module — crew Module Atmospheric Re-entry Experiment — in this mission, which also worked exceedingly well," Isro chief Radhakrishnan said. "The unmanned crew module splashed in Bay of Bengal as expected," he added.
Stating that India started developing the Mark III rocket a decade ago, Radhakrishnan said this was the largest launch vehicle development programme that Isro undertook.
Radhakrishnan also thanked Prime Minister Narendra Modi for his support and inspiration given to his team on the mission.

REST API

                Direct access to the data in IsisCB Explore is available via a RESTful API at
                {{ rest_endpoint }}.

                Obtaining Credentials

                        The IsisCB Explore REST API is protected using OAuth2.
                        There are two main types of applications, each with a distinct authorization pattern ("grant type").

                            Authorization code. An application that uses this grant type can
                            allow IsisCB users to authorize that application to access the REST API on their behalf.
                            This involves three-legged authentication:

                                    A user initiates authorization in the client application, usually by clicking
                                    on a link.

                                    The client application forwards the user to an authorization page in the
                                    IsisCB Explore web application, where they are prompted to log
                                    in and grant access to the client application.

The IsisCB application passes an authorization token back to the client application.

                                    The client application exchanges the authorization token for an access token,
                                    which is passed along with any subsequent requests to the REST API.

                            Client credentials. An application that uses this grant type can access
                            the API using the credentials of a single IsisCB user. This is appropriate for applications
                            that do not provide functionality on a per-user basis.

                        In order to access the REST API, you must first obtain a pair of client keys. The owner of the
                        application should have an active user account in the IsisCB Explore application.
                        Send your request, including a description of your use-case and the desired authorization pattern,
                        to info@aplacecalledup.com.

                Access Using Client Credentials

Follow these steps to access the API using the Client Credentials grant type.

                                Request an authorization token. Send a POST request to the authorization
                                endpoint with your client id and client secret.

Request

$ curl -X POST "http://data.isiscb.org/o/token/?grant_type=client_credentials&client_id=<your_client_id>&client_secret=<your_client_secret>"

You should receive a JSON response with an access token.

Response

{
    "access_token": "jRxQv9emXKehebcmoHpJHji8KUOTEj",
    "token_type": "Bearer",
    "expires_in": 36000,
    "scope": "read api"
}

                                Pass the access token in an Authorization header with your requests

                                Request

$ curl -H "Authorization: Bearer <your_access_token>" http://data.isiscb.org/rest/citation/CBB000002822/

The enticingly named Sunshine Coast is a meandering stretch of relaxed beachside town an hour's drive from Brisbane International Airport, with Noosa Heads and its chic seafront, Hastings Street, the jewel in its sandy crown.
Once just home to surfers, backpackers and creative types, Noosa Heads has been transformed with an influx of urbanites from Auckland, Melbourne and Sydney. It's now known for its cosmopolitan cafe culture, fresh and varied produce, exclusive shopping and rolling surf (think Australia's version of Montauk in the Hamptons).
Butting on to one of Australia's most renowned surf beaches and most-visited coastal national park, Noosa Heads derives its name from the breathtaking headlands of Noosa National Park on its southern border, the walking trails of which begin at the top of Hastings Street and lead to secluded seaside bays. To the north, the town is bounded by the Noosa River. Listed as an official Biosphere Reserve by Unesco, Noosa is home to a range of pristine natural environments, including rocky outposts where you can watch whales swim by and forested reserves that are home to koalas.
Combining natural beauty with award-winning restaurants, cafes, shopping, as the next few pages will show you, Noosa has plenty to offer.

Ziemomysł of Inowrocław (; c. 1245 – October/24 December 1287), was a Polish prince, member of the House of Piast, duke of Inowrocław during 1267-1271 and 1278–1287, and ruler over Bydgoszcz during 1267-1269 and 1278–1287.

Early years
Ziemomysł was the second son of Casimir I of Kuyavia and his second wife Constance, daughter of Henry II the Pious. In 1257 his mother died, and his father soon married for the third time with Euphrosyne, daughter of Casimir I of Opole. Ziemomysł's stepmother soon caused conflicts in the family with her attempts to obtain territorial benefits for her own children (the eldest of them was the future Polish king Władysław the Elbow-high) in detriment of Ziemomysł and his older full-brother Leszek the Black; some chronicles even accused Euphrosyne of attempting to poison both stepsons.

Reign

After his father's death in 1267 Ziemomysł inherited the district of Inowrocław. At the beginning of his reign in the small principality, he managed to survive the invasion of the considerable forces of King Ottokar II of Bohemia, who was bounded to a Crusade against Lithuania. Was probably at this point that Ziemomysł established close contacts with the Teutonic Order and Sambor II, Duke of Pomerelia, alliances which soon brought to him serious troubles - the revolt of his own subjects.

The conflict clearly emerged after Sambor II (his father-in-law since 1268) loaned Ziemomysł some German knights. This preference to foreigners disliked the local knighthood, and caused an armed conflict led by the bishop of Kujawy, Wolimir, in 1269. The rebels called the very known anti-German Bolesław the Pious to help them. Bolesław took Radziejów, Kruszwica and the castle in Bydgoszcz. Only through rapid action did Ziemomysł and the grant to further privileges to Bishop Wolimir allowed him to regain temporary control of his lands.

In 1271, Ziemomysł was involved in the Pomerelian affairs, in which he supported father-in-law Sambor II against Mestwin II. This decision triggered another invasion of Bolesław the Pious, which combined with another revolt of his subjects forced Ziemomysł to escape. Ziemomysł recovered his lands only in 1278 as a result of an agreement between Bolesław the Pious and Leszek the Black in Ląd, where Leszek II returned Inowrocław to his brother only after he promised to take distance himself from all his German advisors. Despite the end of the conflict, Bolesław the Pious kept Radziejów and Kruszwica.

The complete normalization of Ziemomysł's rule took place two years later at the Congress of Rzepka, where after an agreement with Mestwin II, was stipulated that after his death the castellany of Wyszogród had to return to Inowrocław. The final break with his pro-German policy was in 1284, when Ziemomysł supported his brother Leszek in a war against the Teutonic Order. The details of this conflict are unknown. Ziemomysł also began the process of giving Town privileges to his subjects, endowing them upon Gniewkowo.

Ziemomysł died between October and 24 December 1287. It is unknown where he was buried, although is assumed that it happened in the capital of the duchy, Inowrocław.

Marriage and issue

Probably in 1268, Ziemomysł married Salomea, daughter of Duke Sambor II of Pomerania. They had six children:
 Euphemia (d. young, 3 March 1268/78).
 Fenenna (ca. 1268/77 – 1295) married Andrew III of Hungary.
 Constance (1268/80 – 8 August 1331), a nun.
 Leszek (1275/76 – after 27 April 1339).
 Przemysł (ca. 1278 – November 1338/16 February 1339).
 Kazimierz III of Gniewkowo (1280/84 – 22 August 1345/13 May 1350).

Because his sons are minors at the time of his death, his widow and half-brother Władysław I the Elbow-high took the regency on their behalf.

Being a pilot was the premise for what evolved into a series of positions in the highest echelons of the air force and the military. A modern air force is a complex organization, using the most advanced technologies, very intelligent people and usually a huge budget. As such, my positions required ever more sophisticated managerial capabilities. I got that from UCLA Anderson and have made extensive use of it over the years.
How did your years of active combat prepare you to be in a directorial position within the military?
A tremendous amount of work and leadership are required in order to be a significant player in an active squadron. It's a very competitive community. The selection of those who will climb the ladder of command posts is based on their ability to demonstrate-in addition to excellent flying capabilities-the attributes of a leader.
You wrote an autobiographical book called Tulip Four that describes your harrowing experience as a POW in Egypt, and how you found strength and purpose in the wake of that experience. Can you share a few key lessons that you'd encourage ambitious young people to keep in mind as they embark on their careers and life journeys?
Being a POW is like falling from the wood bar in the final round at the Olympic Games. What they do, those magnificent gymnasts, is to stand up, not blaming anyone, jump again on the bar, and accomplish the exercises they were trained for during the four years before the games. To be a POW is to fall from the wood bar of your life, of your dreams. To climb back and to continue the struggle to be as good as you wanted before you fell, this is the real thing. Almost every one, at a certain point in life, falls from the bar. One should prepare himself not to give up but to continue the fight, if you want to make a difference in the world.
You are now the director of Israel's Civil Aviation Authority (your FAA). How does your military experience translate to a role where you're serving your country's whole civilian population?
My military experience, and my air force experience in particular, gave me the best school for a systematic way of thinking, of comparing alternatives and above all, of leading people in a way that helps them to strive for great achievements. In addition, one has to acquire the secret of decision-making-the method, the timing, the "marketing" to the stakeholders, and then the resolve to make sure that they will be followed and executed.
In 2010 you were included in a list of UCLA Anderson's 100 Inspirational Alumni. How did it feel to know you were an inspiration and who in your life would you consider an inspiration?
It was indeed an unexpected great honor to be included in the 100 Inspirational Alumni. Throughout my life I looked at many people, trying to take from each one of them his or her unique attributes-my father, my mother, some of myteachers, even in elementary school, some of my superior commanders and so on. When my life crossed paths with people I found myself admiring, I tried to take those "gifts" and better myself.

Not much to build on this kit, it's said to take 8 hours. The surface details are awesome and are crying for a dirty wash later on. Decals for 8 different Tempests are included. All hardware needed is in the kit, except the radio- and engine stuff of course. First are a few photos how it looks like right out of the box, which is later used to store and transport the model in!
As said there are decals for 8 individuals. Unfortunately it looks like Alfa Models used Richard J. Caruana's book "Hawker Tempest Mks.II to VIs" as reference. (Everyone but Clostermann's JF-E (NV724) is in that book.) I.e they have copied all mistakes in that book. I know this model isn't a super-scale model for F4C competition, but it's always fun to make a historical correct model.
To start the Tempest modelled is a Series 2, you all know what that means: short-barrelled cannons and no fish plates. And the supplied spinner is yellow! For the wing surfaces Type B and Type C roundels are the only supplied, despite Type C.1 was used from January 1945.
With everything set according to the instructions and with help to launch the model (always nice on the first scary test flight), the Tempest "took off" without any problems. It was rather windy but the model behaved very well. Perhaps I'm going to reduce the elevator travel (or increase expo), a little sensitive for my taste. Otherwise a little gem with lot of power!! The landing was no problem. Just be sure to keep some speed all the time.
SN129 and I are going to have a lot of fun this summer!!

It's summer. It's barbecue season. That means it's the perfect time for a bottle of Zinfandel and a big steak….
Want to make Joel Peterson nervous?
Offer to show him your tattoo.
It's not that he doesn't appreciate the artistry of a fine tat', he says.
It's just that as the winemaker and founder of Ravenswood Wines in California, Peterson often meets people who want to show him how much they love both his wine and its famous black and white label of three ravens, intertwined like a Celtic knot.
"I've seen breasts, butts, the middle of backs and lower, arms, belly buttons, you name it," he says with a laugh.
Still, the popularity of the label as a tattoo speaks volumes about the popularity of Ravenswood wines.
Peterson started the winery in 1976, with the intention of focusing on red Zinfandels — big, bold spicy wines that go well with red meat and Mediterranean food.
Although the grape is the third most cultivated grape in California (behind Merlot and Cabernet Sauvignon), it was best known in the '70s as a sweet, pinkish wine.
"I don't do pink. I don't do sweet. And I don't do wimpy," he says and has said for years.
But Peterson could see the grape's potential.
"The red wines being made out of it at the time were excellent," he recalls.
That first year, he made 427 cases. By 1981, Peterson took over a space that wine critic Robert Parker Jr. once described as "a tin garage." In fact, an oak toilet seat manufacturer had owned the place before Peterson arrived to turn it into a winery.
It took another six years before Peterson was getting paid for his work, 11 years after starting Ravenswood.
The winery now makes more than 800,000 cases of wines, including Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Syrah, Petite Syrah and Chardonnay.
But it is Zinfandel that has made the winery famous. The Ravenswood Vintners Blend is the top-selling Zinfandel in the world, and one of the most popular California reds in Canada.
And Peterson is now a senior vice- president with Constellation Wines, the largest wine company in the world. Its sales are more than $4.6 billion US each year.
"If I'd done Cabernet, I would have been a little fish in a big pond.
Not bad for a guy whose first exposure to wine was as a child growing up in northern California. When Peterson was 10, his father — a chemist and amateur oenophile — started a wine-tasting club at a time when few such clubs or, for that matter, wineries existed in the U.S.
Peterson has passed that passion for wine on to his own two children. His son Morgan — who used to ride around the winery on his tricycle — bottled under the Vino Bambino label for a time. Now he's starting his own winery, Bedrock Wine Company (bedrockwineco.com).
As for Peterson, he spends most of his time these days on business — but occasionally, whether he wants to or not, he still checks out tattoos, too.

When you have one of (if not the) world's best movements, you tend to set your sights a little higher. And OMEGA has continued to push the envelope with today's news.
In brief, OMEGA will be shifting to the Swiss Federal Institute of Metrology (also known as METAS) in a partnership to seek a better standard for measuring accuracy.
Without putting to fine a point on it, Mr. Hayek expressed a feeling that the standards of the COSC were perhaps a bit lacking and needed to be strengthened in light of the expectations that people have of a watch with a COSC certificate. And frankly I couldn't agree more.
The new standard will go into place in 2015, and what I think is the most important thing (if I understood the information correctly) is that this test will assess a CASED watch, not just the movement in a plastic box!
So once again, BRAVO OMEGA! Keep moving forward.

Introducing Fisayo Adarabioyo
In amongst the contract details announced yesterday by the club there was the news that midfielder Fisayo Adarabioyo has been given his first professional deal that will keep him tied to the club until 2014 – a great finish to the youngster's first season at the club.
Fisayo Adarabioyo came to Blues from the Manchester City Academy setup, where his younger brother Tosin plays for the under-16s. He made his debut there for the u18s as a sixteen year old as a substitute against Bolton Wanderers in the FA Academy Premier League last season and made one further sub appearance for that side before he came to Blues.
This season Fisayo has made 18 appearances (out of a maximum 28) for the Blues Academy u18 team, starting eleven games and scoring one goal in the 3-3 draw with Leicester. This is despite being one of the younger members of the academy team – he would still eligible to play for the u18s next year under the current rules.
On top of that he has made two appearances for the reserves – once in the starting eleven which drew 0-0 against Alvechurch in the Birmingham Senior Cup and once as a sub in a reserve team friendly against Shrewsbury Town which Blues won 2-1.
Fisayo also featured in the Sheik Hamdan Tournament out in Dubai, scoring goals against Hatta Club, Al-Wasl and RC Lens in a youthful Blues u19 side that finished the tournament fourth.
I'll confess that I've not seen Fisayo play yet but I think the fact that he has been offered a two-year deal must mean that the club rate him highly and want to tie him down; none of the other youngsters offered deals yesterday got longer than a year and were all in the year group above Adarabioyo.
In saying that too much cannot be expected of the youngster yet; I suspect that next season he'll be looking to play in the new EPPP-backed u21 team that will replace the current Academy League setup. However, I hope you will join me in looking out for his name and hoping that Blues have unearthed another gem.

A friend of mine has seen him play, rates him very highly!
big says:
with a name like that, of course hes good.
Daddyblue says:
What position does he play and what type of player is he ?
This boy is the next Trevor Francis
Spud says:
No pressure being put on him at all then….
Jim Firbank says:
Fisayo Adarabioyo – The saviour of BCFC
Does he know he will be called Yo-yo or Fizzy or Ada even?
That said, I'm sure we all wish him the best of luck.
Nah, more likely Fizza, 'specially if he's combustible
oldburyblue says:
Would love to see Adarabioyo and other young players coming through the ranks. When and where will the U21s be playing? Really miss the mid-week evening Reserve games at Solihull & St A's.
That is something I'm waiting for word on.
If I recall correctly from what I have heard four matches will be at St Andrews and I suspect the remainder would be at Damson Lane
Sure I'll find out here 1st almajir……as usual!
I have seen him play and he is a decent player but by no means outstanding. He has a poor first touch and is constantly caught offside.
May I add I saw him play in an u17's game this season and he scored a hatrick! His touch was outstanding and was not once off side. He's a very skilled lad


We now have our first trailer for the Jurassic World sequel which reunites Bryce Dallas Howard and Chris Pratt and sends the pair back to Isla Nublar to save the dinosaurs from a natural disaster. B. D. Wong and Jeff Goldblum reprise their roles from previous films. Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom opens in theaters on June 22.
Oliver Harper returns to take a look back at Jurassic Park.
For the first time in 14 years we get a new entry into the Jurassic Park franchise with Jurassic World. Far from a reboot, Jurassic World takes place in the same world as the previous films (and even has a few homages to the original), although no human characters return. Jurassic World doesn't stray far from the template of the previous three films (and not nearly as much as I'd like recycling the same themes already well-mined by the franchise), but it does offer a new twist or two to give the latest sequel a fresh feel.

SIS shall inform the student and/or his legal guardians of school vacations before the start of each semester.
Absences from School and Authorization
In the event of absence due to illness, the student and/or his legal guardians are obliged to inform the school by telephone, by e-mail or in writing. All other requests for authorization of absence that are not related to illness or accident must be submitted to the school principal in writing.
Trips and Excursions
By signing the school contract, the legal guardians of the minor give their permission for him to participate in one-day trips or excursions organized by the school. SIS shall provide notification of any such events in an appropriate manner, without obtaining additional permission from the legal guardians.
Publications and the Internet
Upon signature of the school contract, the student and/or his legal guardians give their permission for photos and work of the student to be published in printed material, on displays within the school, on the school's website or in e-newsletters. The student and/or his legal guardians may revoke this permission at any time in writing. However, it is not possible to revoke the permission for publication retroactively.

Information Regarding Students Above the Age of Majority
SIS may also inform the legal guardians of a student above the age of majority about important school matters, without the student's consent, provided that the legal guardians are paying the school fees.
Other Provisions
Should one provision of the school contract or the General Terms and Conditions be invalid, this shall not invalidate the contract as a whole. The invalid provision shall be replaced by a valid one that best accords with the wishes of the parties to the contract.

EA: More job cuts coming as Q3 losses reach $641m
MCV Staff 4th February 2009	Publishing
North American publisher EA has announced that it suffered losses totalling $641m for the three months ending December 31st 2008 – this compares to losses of $33m in the same period the year before.
Revenue was up, however, hitting $1.65bn compared to $1.5bn in 2007.
In further bad news, EA has announced that the number of people to lose their jobs is now set to increase to 1,100, now representing 11 per cent of the firm's total workforce. In addition, 12 'facilities' are to be closed and the publisher is to reduce its product portfolio.
Of the firm's software releases in the period, FIFA 09, Rock Band 2, Need for Speed: Undercover, Left 4 Dead, Dead Space, Madden NFL 09, NBA Live 09, Mirror's Edge and Littlest Pet Shop were all credited for their strong performances.
Our holiday quarter came in below our expectations and we have significantly reduced our financial outlook for fiscal 2009, a clear disappointment," CEO John Riccitiello stated. We delivered on game quality and innovation in calendar 2008, with 13 titles rated 80 or above — more than any third-party publisher. We expect to build on this great quality record in the year ahead while delivering more profitability."
CFO Eric Brown added: Given our recent performance and the current economic environment, we are aligning our cost structure with a lower projection of revenue, resulting in approximately $500m of operating expense reductions in fiscal 2010 as compared with our previous plans."

Adventist Health System has been accused of improperly distributing a chemotherapy drug for those with cancer. The Department of Justice states that this certain drug is only supposed to be used once per patient in a single-dose. Adventist Health System is the parent company for Florida Hospital. Florida Hospital's practice sometimes did not discard the vials of the drugs, however, they used the remaining dosage for other patients.
This chemotherapy drug should only be used in a single-dose because the vials do not have microbial agents, therefore, repeated use may contaminate the drug. This contamination can result in infections in patients. Other allegations were made against Florida Hospital as well. They administered drugs inappropriately, certain services were inaccurately billed to increase reimbursement and patients had to be admitted for treatment because of these inappropriately practices. These practices from the hospital put patients at high risk in an attempt to boost their profits.
Daryl Tol, the president and CEO of Florida Hospital stated that they have settled with the government and luckily no patients were affected negatively by the practices. They have made significant changes at the office. Recently in 2012, Adventist voluntarily self-disclosed some of these conducts and paid the government $820,000. Adventist Health System has paid the government over 2 million dollars to settle these issues.

From highbrow to lowbrow: caviar (sort of) to this broke-college-student go-to. I didn't think much of the oh-so-fancy fish eggs — if that's the way the non-slacking 53% of Americans are living, they're welcome to it. And I don't think much of the dregs of the booze world, either. Smells and tastes like skunky beer. I searched around to figure out what, besides the obvious taste deficiency, made it different from beer. Looks like it comes down to alcohol percentage (malt has more — probably to make you forget you're drinking something so atrocious) and ingredients (malt adds sugar and corn and such and uses a "bottom fermenting yeast" — which is fitting for this bottom feeder of the drink family). Plus malt comes in these giant bottles — paper bag optional — kind of like an alcoholic Big Gulp. If it tasted that bad when I first opened it, though, how would it taste once I got to the warm, flat end of one of these monsters? I'm just glad I spent my youth with classy brews … like Pabst Blue Ribbon and Milwaukee's Best.


China's multi-billion dollar 5G market is shifting from a trio-game into a four-player battleground, after the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology allowed China Broadcasting Network Ltd to engage in the construction of a network for the fifth-generation mobile communication technology.
The ministry confirmed to China Daily on Wednesday that it has greenlighted CBN to build 5G networks, which will allow it to grab a spot in a market long dominated by the nation's big three mobile carriers-China Mobile, China Unicom and China Telecom.
Sources close to the ministry said CBN, the builder and operator of China's cable TV network, is now officially applying for a 5G license and the company has an inherent advantage in 5G, given its abundant spectrum resources.
"Spectrum bands are as important to mobile carriers as land is to property developers. It is crucial to have wide spectrum bands to ensure a good mobile network experience," said the sources who declined to be named as they are not authorized to speak about the matter in public.
CBS became China's fourth telecom operator in 2016 after the ministry issued a basic telecom business license to it, permitting the company to operate internet data transmission business and domestic telecommunication infrastructure service business.
But partly because 4G network construction was already well underway in 2016, CBN has, so far, never started offering mobile tele-com services, said Xiang Ligang, CEO of telecoms industry website Cctime.
"The era of 5G will be the real beginning of a four-player battle in China's telecom market," Xiang added.
On Wednesday, shares of companies in China's cable TV network industry surged. Shanghai-listed Shaanxi BC & TV Network skyrocketed by the daily limit of 10 percent to 6.57 yuan (94 cents).
Chinese companies are scrambling to commercialize 5G, a technology that is expected to be at least 10 times faster than 4G and will support superfast movie downloads, the streaming of virtual reality games, and self-driving cars. China Mobile, China Telecom and China Unicom are all conducting 5G tests in a string of cities, preparing for large-scale precommercial use next year.
Fu Liang, an independent telecom analyst, said CBN's entry into the market is a step to increase competition and promote the "three-network convergence," a State-advocated project aimed at merging telecom, television and internet services into a single network.
"Moreover, telecom businesses will inject a new momentum to CBN, whose cable TV business has suffered a lot from the popularity of internet TVs," Fu said.

Man freed but serial rape accuser…
…remains anonymous
By SAM GREENHILL
An innocent man jailed for a sex attack was dramatically cleared after it emerged that his 'victim' is a serial liar with a long history of crying rape.
But because of laws that protect her anonymity, judges are powerless to name and shame her, leaving her free to make more false accusations against blameless members of the public.
Mr Blackwell, 36, hugged his loyal wife Tanya and wept as the Appeal Court quashed his conviction.
He described his accuser as "every man's worst nightmare".
Mr Justice Tugendhat admitted, however, that similar tragic cases could follow because of the lies of the woman, Miss A.
"Parliament does not seem to have contemplated this situation.
"There appears to be no means of displacing her entitlement to anonymity."
In the 1970s, the Daily Mail campaigned for women in sex cases to be granted automatic anonymity, but now there are questions about whether the law has gone too far.
Warren Blackwell's nightmare began when Miss A, now 38, claimed she had been seized with a knife outside a village club early on New Year's Day 1999, taken to an alley and indecently assaulted.
She later picked Mr Blackwell out at an identity parade.
There was no forensic evidence against him and he had no previous convictions.
'She needs to be stopped'
Yet Mr Blackwell, from Woodford Halse, Northamptonshire, was found guilty and spent three years and four months behind bars.
Eventually the case was referred to the Criminal Cases Review Commission (CCRC) which assigned Detective Chief Inspector Steve Glover, to investigate. He discovered that the woman:
• Has made at least five other fake allegations of sexual and physical assault to police in three separate forces.
• Was married twice and made false allegations against both husbands – one of whom was a policeman.
• Once accused her own father of sexual assault, but police concluded she had made it up.
• Accused a boy of rape when she was a teenager, only for a doctor to discover she was still a virgin.
• The CCRC concluded that in the case of Mr Blackwell, she had "lied about the assault and was not attacked at all, her injuries being self-inflicted".
The Crown Prosecution Service did not oppose the appeal.
David Farrell QC, for the Crown, said: "This conviction is unsafe. What has come out of the woodwork paints a picture of a woman with immense personal problems with serious difficulties in distinguishing between truth and lies."
If this information had been known at the time of the trial, he added, "this case would not have made it off the ground".
Mr Blackwell said: "Clearly something has to be done about this woman. She needs to be stopped. The prosecution say she is psychiatrically disturbed, but insane people who murder are tried and if found guilty put away."
Mr Blackwell, who plans to sue police over his ordeal, will now have his name removed from the Sex Offender Register.
His accuser has a history of mental illness and self-harm – once inscribing the word 'HATE' on her body with scissors.
However, because she has changed her name at least eight times, and moved between addresses in at least three counties, it seems police never realised they were dealing with the same woman.
For Mr Blackwell, her accusations meant he missed more than three years of family life. His son Liam, ten, and stepdaughter Holly, 16, were three and nine when his ordeal began.
His 36-year-old wife said: "I never doubted him for a second. We were together six years before it happened, and ever since."

Insane. I don't know what the laws in Britain are like but in most (if not all) of the US, deliberately filing a false police report is a criminal offense. Criminal offeneses being a matter of public record.
Peter_24601
Popeye is right, I believe the charge would be obstruction, because she's wasting resources that could have been used to solve real crimes and bring in real criminals. If the lady in question testified at her own trial, the charge would also be perjury cause she lied under oath. She should be jailed for what she had done… Later,

Wenger denies Arsenal are leading chase to sign David Luiz but hints at January arrivals
Harry Sherlock
Arsenal v Chelsea
The Gunners have been heavily linked with the Chelsea defender but the Frenchman says no deal is forthcoming
Arsene Wenger insists Arsenal are not in the running to sign David Luiz from Chelsea in January.
Recent reports have claimed that the Gunners are leading the race to acquire the Brazilian, but the Gunners manager has now rubbished such speculation.
"These reports are wrong," he told reporters when asked about a potential deal for the centre-back.
Luiz has fallen out of favour at Stamford Bridge, and has played just eight times in the Premier League this season, while he is currently suffering from a knee injury.
And although the defender may not be on the Gunners' radar, Wenger claims Arsenal could well attempt to bolster their squad now that the transfer window is open.
"We are out there and [could] look to do some things, yes," he added.
"But when, that is very difficult to say because it does not depend only on us."
It appears, however, that the Gunners may also have to be wary of losing a number of their own first-team stars, with Alexis Sanchez heavily linked with a move to Manchester City.
Goal understands the Chile international is desperate to leave the club in January, after Pep Guardiola's side failed to push through a £60 million deal in the summer.

The Theme of Thessalonica () was a military-civilian province (thema or theme) of the Byzantine Empire located in the southern Balkans, comprising varying parts of Central and Western Macedonia and centred on Thessalonica, the Empire's second-most important city.

History
In Late Antiquity, Thessalonica was the capital of the Roman province of Macedonia and of the Diocese of Macedonia, and the seat of the praetorian prefect of Illyricum. With the loss of most of the Balkan hinterland to the Slavic and Bulgar invasions in the 7th century, however, the authority of the prefect (in Greek eparchos, "eparch") was largely confined to the city and its immediate surroundings. The eparch continued to govern Thessalonica until the early 9th century, when he was replaced by a strategos at the head of the new theme of Thessalonica.

The strategos of Thessalonica is attested for the first time in 836, but a letter of Emperor Michael II () to the Frankish king Louis the Pious () may indicate the theme's existence already in 824. The historian Warren Treadgold dates the theme's creation to c. 809, during the anti-Bulgarian campaigns of Emperor Nikephoros I () which extended Byzantine rule to the city's hinterland. Treadgold further conjectures that its troops in the 9th century numbered about 2,000 men. To the east, the theme extended to the river Strymon and the theme of the same name. To the south, it bounded the theme of Hellas, somewhere in northern Thessaly. Its western and northern bounds were undetermined, fluctuating with the tide of war between the Byzantines, the local Slavic tribes, and the Bulgarians.

Under Emperor John I Tzimiskes (), a doux who commanded the professional tagmatic troops stationed in the theme was installed in the city, and seems to have co-existed for a while with the strategos, before assuming the latter's duties as well. In the 11th century, the doukaton of Thessalonica was of such importance that it was often held by members of the imperial family. The city and most of Macedonia were captured by Latins after the Fourth Crusade, and became part of the Kingdom of Thessalonica, which survived until 1224, when it was captured by Epirus. The theme was reconstituted after the city and most of Macedonia fell into the hands of the Empire of Nicaea in 1246, and survived until captured by the Ottoman Turks in 1392; by that time, however, the theme was essentially reduced to the city itself. Regained by Byzantium in 1402, the city became the seat of a despotate, until it was surrendered to Venice in 1423, during another siege by the Ottomans which ended with the city's conquest in 1430.

FMI's George Reddin delivered his annual construction materials market outlook at the 2019 Pit & Quarry Roundtable & Conference. Photo by PamElla Lee Photography.
Sentiments about the coming months were largely positive as aggregate producers, equipment manufacturers and others looked at the year ahead during the 2019 Pit & Quarry Roundtable & Conference.
George Reddin, managing director at FMI Capital Advisors, was largely positive about the months to come, as well, as he delivered his annual construction materials market outlook at the P&Q event in Coral Gables, Florida. Reddin outlined several drivers that will impact the construction materials market in 2019, detailing two scenarios that could take place as the year unfolds.
One scenario: The construction materials market benefits from a rebound year. The second: The relatively flat market of 2018 persists through 2019.
Reddin notes that the market will pay special attention to input cost inflation, as well as construction materials pricing, as 2019 goes on.
Reddin elaborated further on 2019 market drivers, detailing that construction materials companies are pretty optimistic and believe there's momentum on infrastructure funding and funding initiatives at the state level. To maximize performance, Reddin suggests the industry needs stability from the Federal Reserve on interest rates.
A robust year is the more likely of the two possible scenarios, from FMI's perspective.
Depending on sector performance, merger and acquisition activity in 2019 could return to 2017 and early 2018 levels.
The construction materials industry roared into 2018 on the heels of industry-transformative deals in 2017 – including CRH's acquisition of Ash Grove Cement, Vulcan Materials' purchase of Aggregates USA and Martin Marietta's addition of Bluegrass Materials. Megadeals like these did not carry over to 2018, but mergers and acquisitions did continue on a smaller scale.
2018 saw a mix of platform and bolt-on transactions rather than the mega-transaction types. 2019, however, should serve up an even heavier diet of bolt-ons, according to Reddin.
Depending on first-half 2019 performances, construction materials market dealmaking could intensify in the second half of the year.
"If the first and second quarters are good, we should see a healthy M&A market in the second half of the year with a return to the platform deals and the mega-transactions, as well," Reddin says.
Still, as many construction materials producers experienced in 2018, the market can shift quickly. Expectations entering last year were high in part due to optimism surrounding a federal infrastructure bill, but the buzz quickly fizzled and injected new uncertainty into the construction materials environment.
The uncertainty surrounding infrastructure was one of several factors that contributed to the decline of the CMI, FMI's index of 16 construction materials producers operating in the United States – including Vulcan, Martin Marietta, CRH, Summit Materials and others. The combined share prices of the 16 CMI companies dropped nearly 32 percent in 2018, with most firms ending 2018 near their 52-week lows.
"The companies in our CMI lost almost $50 billion in market cap last year," Reddin says.
Three of the 16 CMI companies – Summit, U.S. Concrete and Eagle Materials – experienced market cap losses in excess of 50 percent.

As anticipation for infrastructure legislation faded, other headwinds surfaced, including inclement weather, rising interest rates, trade tariffs and declining growth in residential markets.
"No single issue was a big deal in and of itself, but we started to get the collective weight of the issues bearing down on the markets," Reddin says.
By the end of the third quarter, CMI firms revealed they were either missing earnings or that they were disappointed in their rate of growth.
"The result for the public companies was that stock prices got hammered and they lost significant market capitalization," Reddin says.
Private industry companies, meanwhile, experienced a somewhat different dynamic in 2018.
"Many private companies experienced a good year but not quite as good as they had originally forecasted," Reddin says. "However, they still had very strong results relative to historical performance.
On the other hand, the public companies saw their equity reduced by more than 30 percent on average.
"This dynamic created a big difference between the perceptions of public and private companies in M&A transactions," Reddin says.
Public companies answer for both their trailing-12-months (TTM) performance and the outlook for the next 12 months (NTM), according to Reddin. In the first half of 2018, early forecasts began to fall short and, as the year progressed, this unexpected dynamic increased.
"The slowing performance took a toll on the sector, with public companies experiencing large hits to their stock price," Reddin says. "With stock market pressures rising, public buyers became fixated on TTM performance.
Private companies looking to sell, on the other hand, were more fixed on NTM.
FMI's 2019 outlook for both public and private firms remains positive.
FMI Capital Advisors' George Reddin explored this stirring question at the 2019 Pit & Quarry Roundtable & Conference.
"More than half of the economists think the next recession will occur in 2020, while a quarter of economists project 2021," says Reddin, the managing director in the construction materials practice at FMI.
Most economists firmly believe the next recession will not mirror the last one, he adds.
"We had never seen a recession like the one we had in 2008-2009," Reddin says. "It was a very steep decline from top to bottom, and had the longest recovery period in history. Normally, we have a V-shaped recession – a quick downturn followed by a rapid recovery, a cycle of a year or so [and] not a decade long.
"If we have a technical recession, it will likely be less impactful to the construction materials sector – especially if we get an infrastructure bill where we have public funding offsetting potential softness in the private sector," he adds.
According to Reddin, the takeaway for construction materials producers is that the industry will inevitably feel the impact of the next U.S. recession, but not nearly with the depth and severity of 2008.

Wahoo McDaniel vs. The Super Destroyer: Round 1
When "Chief" Wahoo McDaniel entered the Mid-Atlantic area in the summer of 1974, he knew he was walking into a "lion's den" of top villains who were looking to further their impressive reputations by knocking off the former NFL star. One of the biggest and meanest of that bunch was none other than the masked Super Destroyer.
On an edition of the Mid-Atlantic Championship Wrestling television show that was taped on August 14, 1974, and that aired in many markets on August 17, 1974, the Destroyer decided to make his move against the Native American Mid-Atlantic newcomer. It was a move that the masked man would immediately regret!
After belittling Wahoo's NFL career that had ended several years earlier, calling him a "has-been," the Super D. laughed at how inferior McDaniel was to his former New York Jet teammate, quarterback Joe Namath. These reprehensible words were bad enough, but then the Destroyer, still in his street clothes, tried to get physical with Wahoo. Bad move!! The Destroyer lost a nice dress shirt, and a lot of his dignity, when Wahoo got hold of him briefly. The Destroyer then ran to the safe confines of the dressing room, at least for the short term dodging any more physical damage from the Indian.
But after a commercial break, Wahoo had plenty to say about this first confrontation against his masked rival. When speaking to announcer Bob Caudle, McDaniel was every bit as serious as President Richard Nixon was when he was addressing the nation six days earlier announcing his resignation from office. Wahoo told the viewing audience and the Destroyer, "I'll rip that mask right off your face…I'll rip it off! I know what you look like! I'll rip it right off!" Caudle then commented, "Well, I tell you, you ripped his shirt right off up there in the ring, Wahoo. I'll tell you, when they say when you get an Indian mad you got trouble, here's a mad Indian right now!"
Wahoo was trying to cool down, but it was difficult! The Indian continued, "If you don't think there's any good competition around here, you just come poking your nose in my business. Because that's the reason I came here, because there's some good wrestlers here. And I'm not taking anything away from you. You're probably great, you're big, but you're not super to me. I don't think there's anybody that's super in that ring…there's good and better."
Bob Caudle then interjected, "Well, of course you know, he claims, and I don't know whether it's a fact or not, but that he's had the mask for 12 years Wahoo, and he claims that he's got to be great and he's got to be super because nobody in the 12 years has been able to defeat him and unmask him." A defiant McDaniel retorted, "No such words as 'never' and 'can't.' If he messes with me, I promise you the mask will go. That little cheap shirt I tore off you…it's nothing! When I rip that mask off you, and the people see who you are, and you don't make any money, and that's what you're in the business for is to make money, and everybody knows who you are…then you can go somewhere else and wrestle. I'll say Destroyer, I'm not going to say Super Destroyer, but like I said…there's nobody super."
However, Wahoo certainly wasn't taking the Destroyer lightly. "He's great…no doubt about that. But if you want some competition I'm here, and I'm here to stay. A lot of Indians around this area, I have a lot of pride. Been pushing Indians around for many years, well, the pushing is over! I'm stopping right here, the Carolinas, I'm going to spend a long two or three years here playing golf and wrestling. You the Destroyer, Valentine, Koloff, any of you, bring 'em on. I'm here to stay," McDaniel exclaimed.
What seemed to gall Wahoo the most was the Super D. downplaying his professional skills, particularly when he was playing football. Wahoo explained, "I've got a good background. When you said has-been, boy, you got my dander up. Because I'll tell you what, being a has-been is better than being a never-was! And my record speaks for itself. And I don't want to be like Joe Namath." Caudle backed the Chief saying, "No, I agree, I don't think you would be one to look up to a fellow like Joe Namath, Wahoo." McDaniel shot back, "That's right! I did my share in football, and I'm doing my share right in this ring. If you don't think I have…check the records!"
This was the first salvo of an on- and- off war between Wahoo and the Destroyer over the next year. There were multiple battles between these two, with a number of stipulations involved. While the matches were often inconclusive as to their outcomes, Wahoo made several comments along the way about taking the Super Destroyer's mask off before the end of the year 1975. And as it turned out, nearly a year after "Round 1" between Wahoo and the Destroyer, August 20, 1975 to be exact, it was announced on Mid-Atlantic Championship Wrestling TV that the Super Destroyer was unmasked by Wahoo and two others, and was revealed to be Don Jardine. Wahoo was then no doubt harkening back to "Round 1" between these two and thinking to himself…not too bad for a has-been, huh?
