LATIFAH: steel lady
FLICKERS: Dynamic leading ladies Queen Latifah, Alfre Woodard and Phylicia Rashad have signed on for Lifetime's all-black remake of Steel Magnolias, taking over the roles originally played by Dolly Parton, Shirley MacLaine and Sally Field.No word yet as to who will be cast in the Olympia Dukakis and Julia Roberts roles … looking for some laughs this weekend? Servitude is the first film to be developed and workshopped through the Telefilm Canada Features Comedy Lab, the CFC Film Program in collaboration with Just For Laughs, and it opens today with a stellar cast — Joe Dinicol, John Bregar, Linda Kash, Lauren Collins, Aaron Ashmore, Enrico Colantoni, Margot

Kidder, and Dave Foley. Directed by Warren P. Sonada and written by co-producer Michael Sparaga, it looks like a lot of fun … left-wing heroine Jane Fonda will remind us what a good actress she is when she plays right-wing Republican former first lady Nancy Reagan in Lee Daniels' The Butler. An Oscar nominee for directing Precious, Daniels describes The Butler as a sprawling historical drama that centers on Eugene Allen, a black man who worked as butler in the White House under eight presidents. Oscar-winner Forest Whitaker is slated to play Allen, and insiders say ardent Daniels supporter Oprah Winfrey may play one of the many supporting roles …and Marcelle Lean's 15th Cinefranco filmfest wraps up this weekend at TIFF Bell Lightbox. Hot titles include Ma Part Du Gateau/My Piece Of The Pie, one of

BRAVE NEW WORLDS: Did you see the premiere of Kiefer Sutherland's new series Touch last week on Global? If you did, you had plenty of company. Touch premiered almost simultaneously in 100 countries and territories. In the U.S. it screened on Fox; in Germany, on ProSieben; in Russia, on Channel One. New-world executive thinking indicates that the worldwide premiere signifies a new way of doing business that attracts multinational advertisers (Unilever is a sponsor of the series around the world) and attacks online piracy … also making history: the Adam Beach series Arctic
BEACH: hit series
Air, which averaged almost a million viewers a week in its debut season, the largest audience to follow the first season of a CBC Television drama series in 15 years. Other CBC shows more than one million viewers weekly include Dragons' Den, Republic Of Doyle and The Rick Mercer Report. So somebody must be doing something right … Israeli TV formats may prove to be the big buzz at this year's MIPtv. The annual international television convention opens Sunday in Cannes with a red carpet gala screening of Julian Fellowes' Titanic, already sold in 86 countries, but it's the shows from Israel sparking the most interest. HBO's In Treatment and Showtime's Homeland are both based on hit Israeli TV series. Another Israeli series, The Naked Truth, a suspense thriller set entirely in an interrogation room, has already been picked up by HBO
WHITE: April Foolin'
for an American remake, and NBC has ordered a pilot called Midnight Sun, based on the Israeli show Pillars of Smoke, about a female FBI agent who uncovers a conspiracy. Other hot prospects at next-week's four-day marathon in the south of France: Mr. Selfridge, a period drama about the life of the flamboyant founder of the London department story; Tom Fontana's Copper, about a police officer in 1860s New York City; the psychological thriller Hemlock Grove, already snapped up by Netflix; the period mini-series Madame Tussauds; dramatic series Hannibal, already sold to NBC; World Without End, a follow-up mini-series to Pillars Of The Earth; and Sinbad, BBC's update on the tale of the

Tommy turns 75, Celine & Tony sound off, Kelly & Jay play Fallsview and Arlene writes a bestseller
SHARPS & FLATS: Crowd-pleasers Kelly Clarkson and Jay Leno are both set to entertain at Fallsview Casino next month, with the increasingly popular World Rock Symphony Orchestra now set to return in April …
PIECZONKA: Toronto Tosca
sublime Canadian soprano Adrianne Pieczonka continues to dazzle as Tosca in the lavish COC production at the Four Seasons Centre now through Feb. 25 … Daniel Lanois is set for two CBC Music concerts next month at the Great Hall on Queen Street. The concerts coincide with Lanois' induction into the Canadian Music Industry Hall of Fame during Canadian Music Week festivities that same week … and legendary country gentleman Tommy Hunter will celebrate his 75th birthday by hanging up his guitar once and for all. Currently on tour, he'll blow out the candles at a splashy birthday party in London, ON, on March 20, right after he gives his final concert at the John Labatt Centre. Should be quite a night!
HATS OFF: To Tony Bennett and Celine Dion, who skipped the platitudes and went straight to the heart of Whitney Houston'stragic demise. Bennett says he has received mostly positive reaction to his statement urging the legalization of drugs in the U.S.
HUNTER: birthday boy
Legalization, he believes, would get rid of all the gangsters. "One thing I've learned about young people, when you say 'Don't do this,' that's the one thing they're going to try and do. Once it's legal and everybody can do it, there is no longer the desire to do something that nobody else can do." Bennett, now 85, survived his own cocaine habit in the late '70s. Houston, who was 48, had admitted to using cocaine, marijuana and pills in the past. Dion, who is now, 43, considered Houston "an amazing inspiration" but was clearly upset that "drugs, bad people, bad influences, took over her dreams, her motherhood," she told Good Morning America this week. "When you
DION: remembering Whitney
think about Elvis Presley, Marilyn Monroe, Amy Winehouse, Michael Jackson — to get into drugs like that for whatever reason – because of stress, bad influence, whatever — something happens that I don't understand. That's why I'm scared of show business, of drugs and hanging out. That's why I don't go to parties!" The private By Invitation Only funeral for Houston is set for tomorrow in New Jersey.
AND YES, YOU SHOULD TAKE IT PERSONALLY: She's worth millions and demonstrates how she got there every week on CBC's megahit series Dragons' Den. But Arlene Dickinson shares even more of herself in her first (but, I predict, not her last) bestselling book, Persuasion, with some hard-won personal advice that everyone can use. "It's a good idea," she notes, "to take a hard look at your own narrative. Think about how you'd tell your life story to a Hollywood producer, how you'd explain the highs and lows. Have you cast yourself as a victim of circumstance? If so, maybe your story could use a rewrite, starting with the lead character who has choices – and sometimes makes the wrong ones."
DICKINSON: persuasive life lessons
Making the wrong ones is something Dickinson knows about. She's made quite a few herself. But, as she points out, those of us who have made some wrong choices along the way are in good company. High achievers are mistake makers, a fact she illustrates with engaging examples from Henry Ford to Oprah. (My favorite? Thomas Edison's perspective on his many unsuccessful attempts to invent the light bulb. "I didn't fail one thousand times. The lightbulb was an invention with one thousand steps.")
Persuasion is about the art of connecting with the person you seek to persuade. It's about caring. And about how to master "a little-known secret to success in business" – listening. But because Dickinson makes it personal, Persuasion is much more than a How To book; it's a survival guide for the mind and, sometimes, the soul. And within that survival guide are some valuable insights on corporate culture. "Staying in a situation you hate and complaining about everything that's wrong, but never trying to fix it, doesn't make you a martyr. It makes you complicit." Similarly, her views on our ability to choose the consequences of failure are bracing and refreshing. Bitterness is not an option, she insists, and shares another favorite quote, this one by mathematician Blaise Pascal: "Bitterness is like drinking poison and waiting for the other person to die."
As CEO of Venture Communications she also has some genuinely amusing business stories to tell, including the time one of her partners, trying to save the company money, arranged for her team to stay on a friend's sailboat off Vancouver Island instead of paying for pricey Vancouver hotel rooms. When they arrived at the dock she noticed that the boat's name was Important Business — and "suddenly realized what my partners meant when they told me in the past that they work 'going away on important business.' They were talking about this sailboat!"
Stylish on screen and off, she appreciates the fame that television has brought her but resists the urge to take it for granted. "I have exactly the same insecurities anyone has," she admits. "If anything, they're even more overwhelming when you know a couple of million people are seeing all your flaws in high definition!" And despite the fact that her on-screen chemistry with fellow Dragon Kevin O'Leary has made her an audience favourite, her account of her auditions for Dragons' Den (yes, she had to do more than one) and how she had to discipline her own self-doubts to get the job — she replaced another Dragon when she came to the series in its second season — is intriguing inside stuff.
Of course that's why Persuasion is a bestseller. It's a hypnotic, hard-to-put-down book of life lessons shared by someone who had to learn most of them the hard way. As Arlene Dickinson sees it, the main obstacle standing in our way is, not surprisingly, us. "Our past shapes and influences who we are, but it doesn't limit who we can become." Persuasion, as promised, is a new approach to changing minds. And although she preaches the power of persuasion, she urges her readers to be sure of their objectives, be they personal or professional. "Before you set out to persuade someone," Dickinson writes, "you need to be certain that you actually want what you're asking for. Because you just might get it."

SPADER: Race card
I Never Sang for My Father. Years ago Dullea and Coward co-starred in a London-made thriller called Bunny Lake Is Missing. After shooting a difficult scene together for director Otto Preminger, Coward turned to the young actor and chirped, "Keir Dullea, gone tomorrow!" Happily his ad-lib was not prophetic … and Tony Award owner Matthew Broderick has taken his act off-Broadway. He opens tonight at the Acorn Theatre in Kenneth Lonergan's The Starry Messenger, about an astronomy teacher's affair with a younger woman. Academy Award nominee Catalina Sandino Moreno (Maria Full of Grace) plays the younger woman to Broderick's married academic.

And yes, it's a musical.

Then this past Friday he joined his Spread The Net partner-in-crime Belinda Stronach at her reception for another fund-raising pal, Bono.

Coward gave that title to Astaire's biography, so I have purloined it!"… and speaking of Tommy Tune, Renée Zellwegger's new movie, My One And Only, is not, repeat, not the screen version of the great Broadway musical Tommy created for himself and Twiggy. In this one Zellwegger plays a social beauty who is out to land a husband to take care of her and her two boys. Renée's character is apparently based on Palm Beach matriarch Ann Devereaux Hamilton, whose sons include the ultra-tanned movie star George … and speaking of Twiggy, did you catch Bryan Adams' fabulous photos of her inside (and on the cover, natch) of the fall issue of Zoomer magazine?

Ritchie is in London, working on post-production of Sherlock Holmes, which is still slated for a Christmas Day release with Robert Downey Jr., Jude Law and Rachel McAdams … Julie & Julia filmmaker Nora Ephron's next work, a collaboration with her talented sister Delia, is a play called Love, Loss and What I Wore, set to open October 1 at the West Side Theater in Manhattan … my Brit spies whisper that Madonna plans to direct a new movie musical about the Duke & Duchess Of Windsor and wants Cate Blanchett and David Tennant (TV's Dr. Who) to play Wallis Simpson and the king who gave up his throne for her … and director Todd Haynes has persuaded Oscar winner Kate Winslet to star as Mildred Pierce, the role that won Joan Crawford her Oscar, in a six-part mini-series remake of the James M. Cain novel. (The original was cleaned up considerably to get by Hollywood's once-stringent production code.) Now all director Haynes has to do is find the right actress to tackle the role of Mildred's vengeful daughter, so memorably played in the original by the usually saint-like Ann Blyth.
THAT WAS THE WEEK THAT WAS: CBC Television launched its nightly 90-minute supper hour newscasts this week. Which meant it had to move
DUMONT: 'V'-spot
Coronation Street to 6:30 pm. Which meant more grumbling from Corrie fanatics (and yes, you know who you are) … Microsoft launched its new msn.ca website with fairly modest fanfare … Montreal-based TQS (Television Quatre Saisons) showed off its new name, "V", its new direction (more fun, less doom 'n' gloom) and announced a new political affairs show hosted by Mario Dumont … Showcase showed off its new look and its new logo, just like brand new sneakers on the first day of school … and Canada's struggling 'E' network bit the dust as new owner Channel Zero relaunched its 'E' stations with a new format.

A Doctor of Nursing Practice (DNP) degree with an informatics specialty prepares nurses to lead the selection, implementation, and optimization of information systems to support nursing and interprofessional care, as well as ensure patient access to essential health information.
Watch the Nursing Informatics program introductory video.
The nursing informatics specialty of the DNP program is a three-year full-time program delivered online.
Students in this specialty are required to come to campus once each semester for a four-day session (Tuesday through Friday) that includes: core courses, enhancement programming, specialty courses, and meetings with their adviser. Students also complete 1,000 hours at practicum sites arranged by the school. All other work is completed online.
Nursing informatics brought together Hamann's previous career experience in engineering with his career aspirations in nursing. He was eager to explore the intersection, so he enrolled in the Doctor of Nursing Practice (DNP) program at the School of Nursing in the informatics specialty area. Early on in the program Hamann said he knew he made the right decision to obtain his doctoral degree in informatics. "My first informatics class really validated my choice," said Hamann.
When Hamann enrolled in the DNP program he had been a medical-surgical nurse at the VA Hospital in Minneapolis. He took on an informatics role at the VA hospital when he began work on a computerized decision support tool for antibiotic prescriptions. He conducted literature reviews to ensure information was up to date and completed usability tests.
Hamann continued to work at the VA while he worked toward earning his DNP degree, and for his scholarly project, Hamann developed an evaluation tool for a national residency program, which is currently being used in more than 30 hospitals. The tool required him to create a database and develop the front-end interface for a tool that was facility specific and permitted multiple users. As a result of his DNP education and knowledge gained through the DNP program, his title at the VA hospital evolved from clinical applications coordinator to clinical informatics specialist.


Gardening can be such an enjoyable activity for many reasons. This blog explains exactly why; personally I feel that gardening offers more than just enjoyment such as the chance to spend time with the family making the garden look great.
That is wonderful blog and I really appreciate you for the nice quotes on flowers, I like the pictures too, keep it up.
very nice an advice! gardeners Maybe a vacant lot or neglected property has bugged you in 2013. Consider contacting the owner, or the city to find out who the owner is, and see how you can help. One recent surprise is that our neighborhood retention pond, which in the spring sports a hedge of yellow irises planted by my neighbors, is not owned by the city but by a company in Phoenix. Another amazement came in the guise of several residents contacting my rental neighbors to the east whose front yard had become a hip-high tickseed (Coreopsis) forest and a fire hazard. After getting the word, these folks enthusiastically pulled thousands of tickseed stalks, a daunting task given their nasty barb-ended seeds. In the process, they removed an eyesore and revealed a surprisingly green lawn. After seeing these non-gardeners weeding away, in their shorts and bare feet no less, surely anything is possible.

Homeopathic Shut Up Medicine
Jul15 by johnbenneth
No one needs to get fired, no one has to get angry and no one needs to be sad. Homeopathy has something for everyone, especially those who think homeopathy is a scam, the Atheists who have been second in the denial of it only to Anglo-American medical professionals (the Europeans and Indians love it)
Homeopathy in intensive care has cut septic shock deaths in half, but Anglo-American docs scoff despite their high death rates. For homeopathic treament of sepsis see Frass M., Bundner M. Homeopathy in Intensive Care and Emergency Medicine, 535 pages
But this can change. Atheists hate homeopathy because they worship science, and not knowing the science behind it they thinkthe pharmacy is inert. They think the solute molecule disappears due to dilution, when in fact it is "quantumized," ionized into plasma by dissociation into the diluent as a perpetuating entangled wave.
Some people just need to shut up about homeopathy until they learn more about it and it's actual chemistry . . how and what makes it work.
A reasonable question to ask is how is it that there can be a highly advanced 200 year old curative chemistry and such vituperative theories against it by people who know so little about it?
Why are some doctors reporting its use to cure sepsis when all else fails, and others suppressing its use?
It's like astrology, but much more threatening to the actual pseudoscientist: The denial of it is a projection of pseudoscience made by arrogant, lazy, narcissistic, purposely ignorant people who, when faced with a dynamic data set they won't quite get their heads around, hide behind a facade of what they call science.
DR. PAUL MORGAN, intensivist and lead sepsis consultant at Cardiff University Hospital, Wales, is vehemently opposed to homeopathy, posting over 122,000 tweets on Twitter harassing homeopaths for "evidence."
To really understand homeopathy you have to understand what the word does and does not mean and take the evidence of its action seriously. Too often its taken to be synonymous with herbal medicine. While it does, among other things animal and mineral, make use of ionized extracts from vegetable sources, it's much more than than that. But before we go any further, it should be pointed out that proof for homeopathy is iron clad: Homeopathy as a doctrine and homeopathy as a distinct, separate pharmacy (and the overwhelming amount of literature supporting its use) are sanctioned in and by law. If this was better known and understood the contention over it would be over . . in court, and perhaps the war against homeopaths, the interference with trade, solicitations of malice, disinformation and libel would come to an end.
The U.S. Food Drug and Cosmetic Act regulates and protects homeopathy and the use of its pharmaceuticals by statute.
The following is a killshot on any mouth-bubbling argument by pathological "scientists" who think homeopathic medicines are inert:
CPG Sec. 400.400 Conditions Under Which Homeopathic Drugs May be Marketed
"Section 201(g)(1) of the Act defines the term "drug" to mean articles recognized in the official United States Pharmacopeia (USP), the official Homeopathic Pharmacopeia of the United States (HPUS), or official National Formulary (NF) or any supplement to them; and articles intended for use in the diagnosis, cure, mitigation, treatment, or the prevention of disease in man or other animals; articles (other than food) intended to affect the structure or any function of the body of man or other animals; and articles intended for use as a component of any articles specified in the above. Whether or not they are official homeopathic remedies, those products offered for the cure, mitigation, prevention, or treatment of disease conditions are regarded as drugs within the meaning of Section 201(g)(l) of the Act.
"Homeopathic drugs generally must meet the standards for strength, quality, and purity set forth in the Homeopathic Pharmacopeia. Section 501(b) of the Act (21 U.S.C. 351) provides in relevant part:
"Whenever a drug is recognized in both the United States Pharmacopeia and the Homeopathic Pharmacopeia of the United States it shall be subject to the requirements of the United States Pharmacopeia unless it is labeled and offered for sale as a homeopathic drug, in which case it shall be subject to the provisions of the Homeopathic Pharmacopeia of the United States and not to those of the United States Pharmacopeia.
"A product's compliance with requirements of the HPUS, USP, or NF does not establish that it has been shown by appropriate means to be safe, effective, and not misbranded for its intended use.
"A guide to the use of homeopathic drugs (including potencies, dosing, and other parameters) may be found by referring to the following texts: A Dictionary of Practical Materia Medica by John Henry Clarke, M.D., (3 volumes; Health Science Press) and A Clinical Repertory to the Dictionary of Materia Medica by John Henry Clarke, M.D. (Health Science Press). These references must be reviewed in conjunction with other available literature on these drug substances." for whole statute click here
Thus ends the "homeopathy is a scam" claim;
It establishes homeopathic remedies as legal drugs;
It endorses a primary reference work and preeminent authority (Clarke)
Perhaps it would serve honest inquiry to explore Clarke. Why does the U.S. FDCA make this reference?

Moronic drivel for credulous masses, peddled by dishonest hucksters with no more scientific understanding than a two-year-old.
Ally J says:
Thanks for this its so true! Hommeopthy is real and works because it is legal. This is how we also know that Gorgeouspil is real and it works, becauuse its not illegal (it makes you younger and also immortal: Google: gorgeouspil )
GiJoel says:
If I were run over by a 1983 Nissan Carolla, would they need the whole 1983 Carolla for a dilute, or would any Nissan model do? Inquiring minds wish to know.
That obvoisly a fake question! Nissan makes the Sentra, not Corolla. Corrola is by Toyota! So you would need a 50C of Toyota but any Japanes model will work too.
You should realize that laws don't determine reality. Homeopathy is nonsense regardless of what legislation is passed. If there was actual evidence for the efficacy of homeopathic products, you wouldn't have to rely on such a ridiculous claim in an attempt to gain credibility.
AHHahaha!

Could you point me to some research on these waves? "Perpetuating entangled wave" isn't bringing up anything in my literature searches. What exactly is one? How can it be modelled? Is there a way to directly measure it? Thanks for your help. 🙂

I doubt any skeptic; especially Dr Paul Morgan, would agree to take Sulphur MMM once daily for two weeks. Interesting challenge, however.
debbybruck says:
Thank you for posting this valuable message.
Tham Wai Keong says:
Tell all the skeptics, particularly Paul Morgan , to take Sulphur MMM every day for two weeks.
Then ask them about their "placebo" report.
That's what I always do.
One trauma surgeon on Twitter did take up another homeopath's challenge to take Psorinum 1M for a month, filmed the act daily and showed the video on Youtube, claiming "nothing happened to him", but I believe he faked it and took empty sugar pellets instead.
You can't possibly take Psorinum 1M for days on end without any kind of severe provings ultimately.
Who is this transit surgeon, what's his follow address on Twitter?. I've notified mediseptic DDr.PPaul MMorgan (correct spelling in Welsh of @drpaulmorgan; intensivist at "Paul Hall," the nickname his sepsis victims gave Cardiff City Hall in Wales.Huge turnout in The Prince of Wales room with lots of hot coffee, glazed donuts (with sprinkles) laffs . . and homeopathy.

Lee (pictured), who will become Burson's deputy global healthcare practice chair starting on 19 February, has a brief to build the agency's UK and global health business. She will report directly to UK chief executive Stephen Day.
The industry veteran has held a number of high-profile roles including chief executive of Ketchum from 2011 to 2013 after rising through the Omnicom agency over a 10-year stay, having joined in its healthcare practice.
Following Ketchum she had a spell working for Luther Pendragon, and then joined MSL in her current role, head of healthcare in the UK and EMEA, in November 2015 with a mission to change the way clients engage with health professionals and consumers via social media.
Day said of her appointment: "We are thrilled Avril is bringing her world-class reputation and expertise to Burson-Marsteller and look forward to her building on our strong foundation in healthcare in London."
Lee said of her new role: "As economic changes and new initiatives for health equality across the world drive a new focus on health, never before has healthcare comms been so truly global with clients looking to reach consumers and professionals in industralised, emerging and other evolving markets."
Burson's previous UK health lead is now at Edelman.
Lee, a former PRCA Council member, is also a member of the CIPR's diversity working group, an industry issue she has been concerned with for much of her career.
She is also an ambassador for diversity charity the Taylor Bennett Foundation and is a mentor in the BME mentoring scheme launched as a partnership between PRWeek and BME PR Pros earlier this month.
Interviewed in 2011, Lee told PRWeek she did not believe the industry reflected society, adding: "It's not right and it's not good for business."
Day, who was among leading industry figures to be named in the Financial Times OUTstanding list of LGBT+ leaders in October, added: "As well as her obvious pedigree in healthcare and making London a centre of excellence for our growing healthcare practice, Avril is a long-standing advocate of diversity and equality, including BAME and LGBT issues, which lie at the heart of our business in London."

Last night, Croatia crushed England's dream of bringing it home by scoring their second goal and taking the lead at the 19th minute and 16th-second of extra time.
As Mandzukic and his teammates celebrated they unwittingly tackled an AFP photographer, Yuri Cortez to the ground.
Several Croatian players appeared concerned for his safety afterward and once his well-being had been established, they helped him to his feet.
Defender Domagoj Vida even planted a kiss on his forehead.
Despite the distraction, Cortez didn't stop snapping and here are some of the shots he got.


Al-Sheraa is a graduate of the Najaf Hawza in Iraq. He emigrated to the United States and serves as the imam of the Al-Zahraa Islamic Center of Michigan. He also founded the Scholarly Najaf Hawza in Northern America–Michigan.
Bassem Al-Sheraa: Yahya [John the Baptist], with all his greatness and his glory, was a prophet, as was his father. … [The Jews] excommunicated him and then sanctioned his killing. He wasn't just killed; he was declared a heretic and his head was chopped off. Jesus, son of Mary, was also declared a heretic by them. They excommunicated him. They said that he was not a Jew. Then the Romans killed him. They arrested him in order to crucify him. But it was the Jews who issued the religious ruling about it.
When the Romans wanted to arrest Jesus, they got a religious ruling from the Jews that said that he did not represent them and that he had been excommunicated. The Jews sanctioned his killing.
[The Jews] employ tricks and fraud in matters of religion and moral values. They distort [sacred texts], and therefore it is said that the Jews would often kill their own prophets. They would sanction the killing of one another. In addition, they allowed their women to engage in prostitution, God forbid. Following the [Babylonian] captivity, when Nebuchadnezzar exiled them and destroyed the Temple, the Jews said: 'Money and women are our most powerful weapons.' So they would amass gold and money, and they would spread usury. Usury constitutes a peculiar Jewish philosophy. … Even in the modern world, global banks are based on the culture of usury, which is a Jewish concept.
Since a long time ago, the Jews have been lending people money and collecting interest, even though it is forbidden according to their religious law. Allowing usury is one of the things they did to circumvent their [scriptures]. The Jews permitted usury and have been usurers. They are still proud of this. Look at the global banks, the billionaires. … All those are from among [the Jews]. Their culture is a culture of usury. The financial culture of the world was founded according to their instructions and their vision. Why? Because they consider [usury] to be an instrument of control.
In addition, they allowed their women to engage in [prostitution]. Pardon my language, but the brothels of Europe were established by them. Their women would manage those dens of female iniquity. Most dens of gambling, usury, and so on were run by them. They are always like that. They control people's resources through such tricks and deception. They consider it to be a reward and a way to serve their religion. They employ these means to control rather than be controlled. So they said that the son of a Jewish woman is a Jew, even if his father is not Jewish. They even issued a religious ruling to that effect.
The Old Testament and the Torah say that a child belongs to his father. If the father is Jewish, then the son is Jewish as well, and if the father is not Jewish, then the child is not Jewish, either. But in the Talmud, the priests changed this. They said that the son of a Jewish woman is a Jew. Therefore, they sent their women around and said to them: "Go [fornicate], and if you get pregnant, bring us the children and we will accept them as Jews." This is their way to increase their numbers.

Home12-year-old boy shamed by his mother after bullying girl at school
12-year-old boy shamed by his mother after bullying girl at school
August 27, 2018 | by Cheryl Kahla
A mother's powerful anti-bullying message went viral, but not everyone on the Internet agrees with her hard-hitting post.
Terri Day Evans explained in a lengthy Facebook post back in 2016 that her then 12-year-old son had bullied a new girl at his school.
She has since taken the post down to protect her son's safety, as he was tagged in the photo. Nevertheless, her message remains powerful.
As reported by the Telegraph, she was "absolutely disgusted" by his actions, and explained that he purposefully stepped on a new student's foot.
He exerted so much force that the heel of her shoe broke, and the little girl was left embarrassed and tearful on her first day at a strange school.
She warned her son, publicly, that if he "so much as breathe in [the new student's] or anyone's direction in a bullying manner," she would "personally hand him over" to the victim's parents for every demeaning chore they could think of.
She also informed him that his birthday savings fund would be used to replace the girl's shoes and a "bunch of flowers" too.
Her status was quickly shared on social media, and while many netizens supported her message, others said her act of embarrassing her son was also bullying.
Evans clarified that her parenting skills extend so much further than just writing a Facebook post. She had also sat him down to discuss the implications of bullying.
She explained to her son that bullying another person doesn't make him look strong or funny, and showed him how his actions could hurt the victim.

12-Year-Old Son Bullied a New Girl at School
Evans said the humiliation her son experiences online was nothing compared to what the little girl to experience on her first day in a strange environment.
If she already had a history of being a victim of bullying, her son's senseless act could have just escalated the matter. She added:
"Maybe if other parents nipped it in the bud and stopped passing it off as kids will be kids then maybe our next generation of adults will suffer from fewer depressive and anxiety disorders."

Unstable Haiti: the poorest country in the Americas
PORT-AU-PRINCE, Haiti (AFP) — Haiti, where protesters are demanding the resignation of President Jovenel Moise, is the poorest country in the Americas, crippled by long-term political instability and highly exposed to natural disasters.
Here are some key facts about the troubled nation which shares the Caribbean island of Hispaniola with the Dominican Republic.
POVERTY, INEQUALITY
With three-fifths of the population of nearly 11 million people living below the national poverty line of US$2 a day, Haiti is the poorest country of the Americas and among the poorest in the world.
It is also one of the least developed nations on the planet, ranking 168 out of 189 on the UNDP's Human Development Index (2018) which compares longevity, education and income per capita.
Around 20 per cent of the population controls more than 60 per cent of the country's wealth.
Purchasing power has been weakened by two-digit inflation and a strong depreciation of the currency, the gourde, has pushed up prices of staple items, which are mostly imported.
The economy grew at around 1.2 per cent in 2017. Remittances from the country's growing diaspora represent nearly a third of gross domestic product, based on World Bank data.
Due to a lack of protection for investments, corruption and administrative red tape, Forbes magazine in 2018 ranked Haiti as one of the worst countries in which to do business.
Each year thousands of young people flee as illegal migrants, including to the nearby Bahamas and the Turks and Caicos islands.
Under Spanish domination until 1697, and then under the French, Haiti became the world's first independent black-led republic in 1804 after a revolt by slaves.
It suffered a succession of brutal dictatorships which continued almost to the end of the 20th century, interrupted only by brief stints of democracy and foreign occupation.
From 1957 until 1986 Francois "Papa Doc" Duvalier and his son Jean Claude "Baby Doc" ruled with their ruthless Tontons Macoutes militia.
Driven out by a popular revolt in 1986, "Baby Doc" went into exile in France for 25 years, returning in 2011 and dying three years later.
In 1990 former Roman Catholic priest Jean-Bertrand Aristide was elected in Haiti's first free elections. But he was overthrown in a coup, reinstated, ousted a second time and finally sent into exile under pressure from the United States, France and Canada.
Rene Preval came to power in elections in 2006, followed by Michel Martelly, a former carnival singer, in 2011.
Current president Moise, a one-time banana exporter, took office in February 2017, having won elections with 55 per cent of the votes but with a turnout of just 21 per cent.
QUAKES AND HURRICANES
Haiti is vulnerable to natural disasters, to which most of its inhabitants are exposed.
On January 12, 2010 a magnitude-seven quake devastated the capital Port-au-Prince and the surrounding region, killing more than 200,000 people and leaving 1.5 million homeless while shattering much of Haiti's frail infrastructure.
Billions of US dollars of international aid were promised, but much of it failed to materialise. Political instability also hampered recovery.
In 2018 a scandal broke out over allegations that staff members from British charity Oxfam hired prostitutes in Haiti following the earthquake.
More than 10,000 Haitians died in a deadly cholera epidemic introduced by infected Nepalese UN peacekeepers sent in after the disaster.
In October 2016 Haiti was ravaged by Hurricane Matthew, the strongest in a decade, in which more than 500 people were killed. It caused US$2 billion in damage.
Haiti's debt has tripled in the past decade to exceed US $3 billion, preventing investment in measures to reduce climatic risks.

Artificial Intelligence – hype or reality?


As I tried to come to realization of what Dayo just did, it dawned on me that all my certificates from primary school to the university were gone.
He won't get away with this, I promised.
I began to target his own credentials too. He must experience the pain of losing a lifetime credentials just in a moment. For two weeks I searched for his credentials but I couldn't lay my hand on them.
After much search, I laid my hands on them. He hid them after he burnt mine. The heart of man is so wicked, it took diligent search to be able to discover where he hid them.
At this time my conscience had been locked up in hate and vengeance. I took all including the photocopied ones and burnt them one by one.
You are free to judge me, Dayo taught me to be this wicked. He didn't discover until two weeks later.
"Where are my credentials?" He screamed at me.
This time I was ready for anything, my heart was hardened and cruel. I pretended as if I didn't hear him. He came close and grabbed me, as usual, to start beating me. Then I rushed to the kitchen to pick a knife to defend myself.
His anger this time was like that of Simeon and Levi.
He overpowered me and took the knife from me. Beat the hell out of me, stabbed me on my neck twice. He only stopped when he saw me bleeding.
He left me in my pool of blood and fled. I managed to call on one of our neighbours who came and rushed me to the hospital. I was wheeled to the emergency ward but it was too late. I lost my pregnancy.
From the hospital, my uncle came to pick me to his house. That was the end of my marriage with Dayo. He would have killed me if not for God who saved my life.
My uncle tried to get him arrested but he was nowhere to be found. He abandoned everything and ran to only God knows where. Mama could not bear the agony of my predicaments.
She died few months later. As I write this story, I live with my uncle and his family.
I haven't seen or heard from Dayo now since five years. I will be 39 next month and I want to move on with my life. There is this guy that have been coming around, will you advice me to give him a try or just live my life in peace without marriage again?
For my sisters out there yet to be married, I beg you to listen to the voice of elders. Love does not cure bad character. Before you walk onto the aisle, subject yourself to deliverance if you have negative inheritance.
Dayo never did anything serious to break the jinx of his grandfather's excessive anger. I was nonchalant about mama's warning. Mama, please forgive me from your grave. I should have listened to you.
For my sisters living with a hot-tempered man, I understand what you've been through. Don't take it lightly, go on your knees and remould him or else he will kill you someday.
If he is not willing to change, don't stay in an abusive marriage at the expense of your life. Your life means more to Christ than your marriage. The price he paid on your soul was too expensive to give it away at the altar of uncontrollable anger.

Coaching will consist of four 60-minute one-to-one sessions per month. Sessions are conducted over the phone, zoom or skype. This means we can connect from anywhere in the world - how INCREDIBLE is that?! Also, time is valuable and I would rather you spend it out creating your dreams, than driving to an office to meet me - meeting this way allows us both to keep our actions and schedules aligned with our goals. I will also be available for occasional urgent between-session calls, texts or emails.
During the sessions, we will develop practice areas which you can take away and work on between our session time together. The practices are designed to inspire insight, integrate and create further clarity of insight gained during our session, achieve progress in your project(s), or take aligned action toward your goal(s).
The duration of our coaching relationship varies, with a key factor being what projects you are creating or goals you are attaining. The minimum offered commitment for coaching is 4 months, however many partnerships last significantly longer. One month's notice will be requested prior to ending the relationship.
Connect with me so that we can have a conversation - I can answer any of your remaining questions and you can begin to shift the conversation in your head into powerful action in your life!
Through the support of coach facilitated sessions and group accountability, a structure of support will be established to shift the dream spinning in your heart and move it into reality in your life!
Come away with me on retreat and integrate gorgeous locations, group connection, coaching and workshops, and movement.
Everybody's coaching needs are as different as the dreams we are creating. Let's connect and create a structure that supports you in living life powerfully, passionately and on purpose.
Please connect with me directly so that we can create a powerful experience for your team, tribe or audience!

Preview | Cheltenham Town v Gillingham
Daniel Phillips and David Tutonda are both fighting to be fit ahead of Gills trip to Cheltenham.
Dave Miller
Gills make the trip to the Jonny-Rocks Stadium hoping that both David Tutonda and Daniel Phillips will be available for selection.
Cheltenham Town v Gillingham
Sky Bet League One
The Jonny-Rocks Stadium
Friday April 15th
Kick-Off, 3pm
David Tutonda is an injury doubt for the game, having come off in the draw against Wycombe with a knock. Robbie McKenzie will return to the starting XI after missing almost a month of action due to a thigh injury.
Ben Reeves will be available after playing the second half in the 1-1 draw against Wycombe. There is hope that Harvey Lintott, Dan Phillips and Gerald Sithole could be fit to be in the squad after recent injury issues.
Stuart O'Keefe was replaced late on in the game against Wycombe; it is hoped he will be available.
Cheltenham could name an unchanged line-up after their win over Portsmouth. Alfie May will start up front for The Robins, while Kion Etete should start alongside him in attack.
Owen Evan will retain his place in goal, leaving former Gills goalkeeper Scott Flinders on the bench.
Manager Comments:
Neil Harris - "Teams that sit in that middle zone, they aren't going to go down and aren't going to go up, they are dangerous opponents.
"You fear the position they are in because they could be anything at the weekend. What I do know about Michael Duff is that he was a top professional and he will want his team to be ready for us."
Michael Duff - "I think that Neil has done a brilliant job. They were ten points adrift when he got the job, and it's now really close.
"I think they've kept six clean sheets in 14, and he's got them really organised."
Previous Meetings:
When a short-handed Gillingham side travelled to Cheltenham earlier in the season, they were eliminated from the FA Cup. Matty Pollock's 11th minute goal proved to be the difference as a young Gills side was unable to overcome the deficit. Joe Gbode made his professional debut in the game due to further injury problems in the squad.

A memorable away win at Cheltenham came in March 2011. Steve Elliott headed Cheltenham in front during the early stages, but Andy Hessenthaler's side produced a late comeback to secure all three points. Cody McDonald scored twice in the final five minutes to keep the Gills' playoff hopes alive for the 2010/11 season.
Friday's game is an ALL-TICKET fixture, so do not travel to Cheltenham if you have not purchased a ticket.
690 Gills supporters will make the trip to the Johnny-Rocks Stadium. We thank you for your fantastic support.
Cheltenham Town win - 21/20
Draw - 12/5
Gillingham win - 12/5
Special Bet: Vadaine Oliver to score first and Gillingham to win 2-0 - 60/1.

An experienced defender from Werribee, Fred Marriott, who was born in Malvern, was 25 years old when he was attracted to Carlton in 1911, the first year of openly-professional VFL football. He made his senior debut on a half-back flank against South Melbourne at the Lake Oval on the first Saturday in July, in a match the Blues lost by 15 points. He was then left out of the side for the following week's game against Fitzroy, before being reinstated for the round 13 meeting with University at Princes Park.
Carlton needed a percentage-boosting win against the last-placed Students to hold on to third spot on the ladder, but had to be content with a 44-point margin at full time. Fred played out that match in a back pocket, and earned himself a minor place in Carlton's history that afternoon - because University's final score of 2.10.(22) was their lowest ever recorded against the Blues. Even so, Marriott departed from Princes Park soon afterward, for reasons not revealed. He was transferred to Melbourne in 1912 (https://trove.nla.gov.au/newspaper/article/197372931).
Fred was employed as an engineering survey assistant when World War 1 began in 1914. When he volunteered for overseas service, his experience saw him assigned to a specialised unit; the Australian Electrical Mining and Boring Company. For two years after his arrival at the front line in France in September 1917, Marriott was engaged in the construction of rail tunnels, bridges and fortifications in the main battle zones.
While carrying out in their dangerous work, the engineers of both sides were regularly targeted by artillery fire - but Fred was among the lucky ones who survived intact. He returned home to Australia in August 1919, and settled back into civilian life until 1939, when Germany invaded France again and World War II began.
By then, Marriott was living and working outside Cairns in North Queensland. It was June, 1941 before he made it into town to sign up again, but that didn't hold him back. Although he was 55 years old, he was assigned to the area staff of the 51st Infantry Battalion, and promoted to the rank of Corporal before being honourably discharged one year later.

Atlanta Is Fighting Urban Inequality–With An Idea From Martin Luther King, Jr.
Meet "The Beloved Community," an idea MLK advocated for in the 1950s.
Martin Luther King, Jr., the City Planner? In Atlanta, yes.
For decades, urban design has reinforced racial inequality–and it still does today. While equity is being broached in many new projects emerging from progressive cities these days, Atlanta is taking it a step further by indoctrinating civil rights as the foundation for all future city planning through Atlanta City Design, a new 400-page book from the city's planning department that articulates a vision for the growing metropolis.
The book is based on a 1957 speech by Martin Luther King Jr. in which the activist championed the "The Beloved Community," a place filled with human decency, love, and brotherhood and free of poverty, homelessness, discrimination, and racism. It was a cornerstone of King's philosophy–as he put it, "the aftermath of nonviolence is the creation of the beloved community"–and Atlanta believes that by upholding values King outlined, it can ensure that gains in quality of life and economic health are distributed more equitably.
In short, it's a front-line defense against the negative effects of gentrification.
Previously, Gravel was best known for developing the Atlanta BeltLine, an ambitious (and controversial) redevelopment plan that turned an abandoned railway surrounding the city into bike paths and public parks. The idea–which Gravel developed as his master's thesis in 1999–was to concentrate new urban development around this car-free transportation system. Yet over the years, the BeltLine contributed to gentrification and displacement and last year, Gravel departed the BeltLine Partnership–the nonprofit that oversees the BeltLine's growth–citing equity concerns.
In some ways, the new book is a corrective to development like the BeltLine, providing benchmarks for future development and "checks" to help ensure that new development is in service of the city as a whole, not just to those with the deepest pockets.
For Dr. King, The Beloved Community was not a lofty utopian goal to be confused with the rapturous image of the Peaceable Kingdom, in which lions and lambs coexist in idyllic harmony. Rather, The Beloved Community was for him a realistic, achievable goal that could be attained by a critical mass of people committed to and trained in the philosophy and methods of nonviolence . . .
To correct the environmental and economic imbalances that exist in Atlanta today, the book encourages civic participation in planning, promotes community land trusts, advocates for inclusionary zoning, suggests preserving historic neighborhoods and buildings. It stresses the need for experimental housing solutions, like ADUs. It argues for concentrating new growth in areas that are naturally expanding to promote density and preserve green space. It wants the city to welcome more startup accelerators to nurture entrepreneurship.
So while there is no "law" mandating accessory dwelling units must be implemented, Atlanta City Design promotes alternative housing models to address affordability. While it doesn't say that all buildings need solar power, it emphasizes energy efficiency. Gravel hopes that framing more specific implementation measures, like zoning code changes, under the service of fulfilling this directive will lead to better urban design and fewer objections, like NIMBYism.
Affirming civil rights and equity should be a priority of every city in the country, not just Atlanta, especially under the current administration, which has shown an antagonistic attitude toward people who aren't rich and who aren't white, by threatening to defund sanctuary cities and framing big cities as being on the brink of economic collapse and moral decline.

Landlord and management co handed record fine over fire safety failures
A corporate landlord and its management company which both failed to carry out a fire risk assessment for an apartment building in London have been fined a total £250,000 after a fire broke out and destroyed the premises.

Wednesday, May 31, 2017 - 00:00
Property owner Crownpark Investments along with City Estates, which managed the six-floor terraced house conversion on Eccleston Square in Pimlico, pleaded guilty to three offences under the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005. They were sentenced at Southwark Crown Court.
The fire broke out during the early hours of 21 February 2011. Eight fire engines and around 60 firefighters were called to tackle to blaze, which badly damaged the second, third and fourth floors. Thirteen people had to be rescued.
Following the incident, inspectors from the London Fire Brigade (LFB) discovered several fire safety failings, including a lack of fire alarm or detection system inside the flats and communal areas, and no fire risk assessment in place for the building. They also found that the doors to the individual flats provided inadequate protection to the escape route in the event of a fire.
Judge Griffiths sentenced the companies on 25 May. He said both defendants had been aware of the fire safety failings within the property but reacted "by putting their heads in the sand", and described the building as an "accident waiting to happen".
City Estates was fined £120,000 for not carrying out a fire risk assessment, £15,000 for failing to equip the premises with adequate fire detection, and £15,000 for failing to ensure persons could evacuate the building safely.
Crownpark Investments was fined £80,000, £10,000 and £10,000 for the same breaches respectively.
The fine is the biggest financial penalty handed down in a fire safety prosecution case brought by the LFB relating to a single privately rented property. LFB was also awarded full prosecution costs of £49,500.
Following the case, LFB's assistant commissioner for fire safety Dan Daly said: "The landlord and management company showed utter contempt for the safety of their tenants when they so blatantly ignored the fire safety failures in the building. Hopefully the size of the fine handed down in this case will send a strong message to other private landlords who ignore their fire safety responsibilities in such a brazen way."
