Garcia Report
Parts of this article (those related to the contents of the now-public report) need to be updated. Please update this article to reflect recent events or newly available information. (March 2018)
Former U.S. Attorney Michael J. Garcia, who led the investigation and supervised the report redaction.
The Garcia Report was an investigation produced by Michael J. Garcia into allegations of corruption in world association football. Garcia was appointed in July 2012 to investigate ethical breaches at the FIFA, football's world governing body. A month later he announced an investigation into persistent public accusations of bribery and corruption in the 2018 and 2022 FIFA World Cup bids, which had been won in 2010 by Russia and Qatar respectively.
After a two year investigation, Garcia submitted his 350-page report in September 2014, to Hans-Joachim Eckert, the FIFA's head of adjudication on ethical matters.[1] He refused to publish the report, citing various legal grounds, instead releasing his own 42-page summary in November 2014. Eckert's summary was criticised in the media as a whitewash; Garcia described it as "materially incomplete". After unsuccessfully appealing for the FIFA to publish the full report, Garcia resigned in protest.
Over the following years there was much speculation in the media regarding the contents of the report, particularly which aspects Eckert had left out of his summary and Garcia had felt were serious enough to warrant his resignation. In June 2017, the German newspaper Bild announced that it had obtained a leaked copy of the report and planned to publish it. FIFA released the report on the following day, pre-empting the newspaper coverage.

Appointment of Garcia and Eckert[edit]
On 17 July 2012, in the wake of announced anti-corruption reforms by the President of the FIFA, Sepp Blatter,[2] the organisation appointed former United States Attorney Michael J. Garcia as Chairman of the investigative branch of its Ethics Committee, while German judge Hans-Joachim Eckert was appointed as Chairman of the Ethics Committee's adjudication chamber.[3] The reformed Ethics Committee was also given the power to retrospectively investigate old cases.[3] As Garcia and Eckert fulfilled FIFA's statute of them or their families not having a paid connection to soccer in the previous four years,[2] The Guardian wrote that "Garcia and Eckert are regarded as key independent figures from outside the so-called 'football family' who can help restore FIFA's credibility after bribery and vote-buying scandals."[2]
Upon their appointment, Garcia and Eckert were immediately tasked to investigate alleged illegal payments made by FIFA marketing company International Sports and Leisure (ISL) to former FIFA President João Havelange and former Executive Committee member Ricardo Teixeira, as well as to evaluate the behaviour of FIFA President Sepp Blatter in the affair.[2][3] ISL had specialized in buying and selling broadcast rights to FIFA events such as World Cups on contracts worth millions of dollars.[4] The case was closed on 30 April 2014 after an investigation by Garcia, with Eckert ruling that bribes had been paid by ISL between 1992 and 2000 to Havelange, Teixeira and Nicolas Leoz, then-President of CONMEBOL. As Havelange (honorary President of FIFA) and Leoz had already resigned from their posts earlier in April 2014, no "superfluous" further action was taken.[4][5] In contrast, Blatter was exonerated of "criminal or ethical misconduct", but was also described as "clumsy" and it was questioned whether he "knew or should have known over the years before the bankruptcy of ISL that ISL had made bribes to other FIFA officials".[4][5]
Garcia investigation and remit[edit]
In August 2012, Garcia declared his intention to investigate the bidding process and decision to award the right to host the 2018 and 2022 FIFA World Cup to Russia and Qatar respectively by the FIFA Executive Committee.[6]
The decision of host venues had previously taken place in December 2010.[7][8] In May 2011, while before a British parliamentary inquiry, the former chairman of England's failed 2018 bid, David Triesman, accused FIFA executive committee members Jack Warner, Worawi Makudi, Nicolas Leoz and Ricardo Teixeira of requesting bribes from the English team in exchange for support.[9] The parliamentary inquiry also received evidence from The Sunday Times that FIFA executive committee members Issa Hayatou and Jacques Anouma were reportedly bribed with $1.5m by the Qatar team.[10] The whistleblower who spoke to The Sunday Times, Phaedra Al Majid, retracted her allegations in July 2011.[11] In December 2011, The Daily Telegraph reported that the Federal Bureau of Investigation were investigating alleged hacking into email accounts for England and the United States' World Cup bids.[8]
FIFA forbids bid teams to offer incentives to members of its executive committee and their relatives.[12] Garcia subsequently expanded his investigation into the entire bidding process for the 2018 World Cup.[12] Garcia's investigation allowed him to demand interviews with football officials, with those refusing subject to disciplinary action.[12] Garcia was not able to interview Mohammed bin Hammam, the former FIFA vice-president, as Hammam is banned for life from football activity.[12] Garcia's investigation remit extended solely to individuals who might have violated FIFA's code of ethics.[12] Garcia was expected to name individuals who refused to speak to him in his report.[12] Garcia has no ability to subpoena people to speak to him or to ask internet service providers for documents.[12]
Garcia was assisted in his production of the report by Cornel Borbély, the deputy chairman of the investigatory chamber of the FIFA ethics committee.[13] Borbély produced the section of the report that investigated Russia, as Garcia was sanctioned from entering the country, and the United States, to prevent a potential conflict of interest as Garcia is American.[13] Russia was the only bidding country which Garcia failed to travel to in the course of his investigations.[13]
Blocked publication by Eckert[edit]
Garcia delivered his 350-page report in September 2014, and it was subsequently announced by Hans-Joachim Eckert, the head of the adjudicatory arm of FIFA's ethics committee, that it would not be made public for legal reasons.[14] Eckert said that only his judgement on the report will be published, in the spring of 2015, and the report had only been seen by four people.[14] Eckert later announced that his overview of the Garcia report with Garcia's main findings, summary, conclusions and recommendations will be published by the middle of November 2014.[13] Eckert has said that "Many won't like what I am going to tell them" in reference to his forthcoming judgement on the report.[13]
Eckert will only judge individuals, and will leave the decision on the hosting of the 2018 and 2022 world cups to FIFA.[14] Garcia, along with some members of the FIFA Executive Committee, called for the Garcia report to be published in full, excepting names redacted to protect whistleblowers.[14] Garcia has said of FIFA that its "... investigation and adjudication process operates in most parts unseen and unheard...That's a kind of system which might be appropriate for an intelligence agency but not for an ethics compliance process in an international sports institution that serves the public and is the subject of intense public scrutiny."[13]
Summary released and Garcia resignation[edit]
On 13 November 2014, Hans-Joachim Eckert released a 42-page summary of his findings after reviewing Michael Garcia's report; the summary cleared both Russia and Qatar of any wrongdoing during the bidding for the 2018 and 2022 World Cups,[15] leaving Russia and Qatar free to stage their respective World Cups.[16] The summary noted that Russia provided "only a limited amount of documents available for review", as the computers leased to the Russian team had been destroyed, and several email accounts were unable to be accessed.[16][17]
The Eckert summary was harsher on England and Australia, who had unsuccessful World Cup bids, finding "potentially problematic facts and circumstances" in their bids and stating that they had undermined the integrity of the bidding.[18] England was described as behaving improperly when trying to win the support of then-CONCACAF head Jack Warner.[18][17] Australia was criticized for the links between its bid and its funding of football development in African countries, and that two Australia consultants "violated the bidding and ethics rules".[18] The bid teams for Japan and South Korea were also criticized for distributing "gifts" and giving the appearance of "a conflict or an offer of benefits" respectively.[19]
The Eckert summary also all-but identified two whistleblowers and disparaged them. He referred to a Qatar whistleblower as "not credible", and an Australian whistleblower as "unreliable" as she had taken her concerns to the media. The two women were widely identifiable to journalists and others in the football community, and confirmed in a newspaper report[20] by journalist Nick Harris.
The FIFA welcomed "the fact that a degree of closure has been reached", while the Associated Press wrote that the Eckert summary "was denounced by critics as a whitewash".[16] Hours after the Eckert summary was released, Garcia himself criticized it for being "materially incomplete" with "erroneous representations of the facts and conclusions", while declaring his intention to appeal to the FIFA's Appeal Committee.[15] There were several calls for the Garcia report to be released, including from FIFA Executive Committee members Jim Boyce, Jeffrey Webb and Sunil Gulati, as well as FIFA presidential candidate Jerome Champagne and English Premier League chief executive Richard Scudamore.[21][22] Eckert, who was "surprised" by Garcia's response, refused to accede to calls to release the Garcia report, citing the "rights of confidentiality for continental law".[22] Less than a week later, Eckert was quoted as saying that the investigation was only at "an interim stage" and that Garcia "can now continue investigating towards the final report".[23]
On 15 November 2014, German Football League president Reinhard Rauball warned that UEFA may quit FIFA if Garcia's report is not published in full, citing that "If this doesn't happen and the crisis is not resolved in a credible manner, you have to entertain the question of whether you are still in good hands with FIFA".[24] On 18 November 2014, acting on the recommendation of Eckert, the FIFA lodged a criminal complaint with the Swiss judiciary relating to the "possible misconduct of individual persons in connection with the awarding of the hosting rights of the 2018 and 2022 World Cup", specifically regarding "international transfers of assets with connections to Switzerland".[25]
On 16 December 2014, the FIFA's Appeal Committee dismissed Garcia's appeal against the Eckert summary as "not admissible". FIFA also stated that Eckert's summary was "neither legally binding nor appealable".[26] A day later, Garcia resigned from his role as FIFA ethics investigator in protest of FIFA's conduct, citing a "lack of leadership" and lost confidence in the independence of Eckert from the FIFA.[27]
Pending release of the redacted Garcia Report[edit]
On 19 November 2014, following a presentation by Domenico Scala, head of FIFA's audit and compliance committee and one of only six people to have seen the report at that time, FIFA's executive committee unanimously agreed to publish a "legally appropriate version" of the Garcia report, with parts redacted to preserve witness confidentiality. However, the Garcia Report will only be published after five ongoing ethics investigations started by Garcia into the following individuals are concluded; for Ángel María Villar, Michel D'Hooghe, Worawi Makudi, Franz Beckenbauer and Harold Mayne-Nicholls. Meanwhile, the decision not to revisit the 2018 and 2022 vote was reaffirmed by the FIFA after Scala said that two independent legal experts he consulted supported that decision.[28][29][30]
Walter De Gregorio, in a press conference on 27 May 2015, stated that the Garcia report has been in the hands of the Office of the Attorney General of Switzerland since 19 November 2014. As part of the criminal proceedings the report may or may not be released.[31] One day after Bild newspaper announced it had received a copy and intended to publish it, the FIFA released the full report on 27 June 2017.[32][33]

Watkins is reportedly dealing with foot pain after Kansas City's win over Cleveland on Sunday.
Chiefs wide receiver Sammy Watkins could miss his team's Week 10 contest against the Cardinals with a foot injury, reports NFL Network's Ian Rapoport.
Watkins is reportedly dealing with foot pain after Kansas City's 37–21 win over Cleveland on Sunday. According to Rapoport, he underwent an MRI and while the injury isn't expected to be serious, he could still miss Week 10.
In nine games this season, Watkins has recorded 39 receptions for 515 yards and three touchdowns. The 25-year-old has two games with 100-plus receiving yards. Watkins is the team's third-best receiver this year behind Tyreek Hill and Travis Kelce who both have over 700 yards.
Hill, Kelce and Watkins have been reliable targets for quarterback Patrick Mahomes who's on track to have a 5,000-yard season along with four other quarterbacks in the league. The 23-year-old Mahomes is 210–of–317 for 2,901 yards, 29 touchdowns and seven interceptions.
The Chiefs have a Week 12 bye after playing the Rams in Mexico City in Week 11.

New Models Drive UMW Sales Up For Consecutive Months
UMW Group registered automotive sales of 28,785 units for November 2021 as demand continues to drive forward for both its Toyota and Perodua vehicles.

As for Perodua, the division registered 20,299 units sold for November, 27.1% lower than the record-breaking monthly registration of 27,858 units achieved in the preceding month, mainly due to the intermittent disruptions to production caused by supply chain issues. Year-to-date, the popular Myvi assembler delivered a total of 167,250 units, 14.2% lower than the 194,980 units registered in the corresponding period in 2020, mainly due to the FMCO and partly the semiconductor chips shortage.
Perodua is aiming for its highest ever monthly registration in its history with at least 30,000 units in December 2021 as it targets to end the year with over 200,000 units sold. For 2022, Perodua is targeting to sell at least 240,000 units barring any further lockdown or semiconductor chips issue.
UMW Holdings Berhad's President and Group CEO, Dato' Ahmad Fuaad Kenali said, "We are pleased with the healthy sales registered by both UMWT and Perodua in November 2021, despite the challenges. The Group expects the automotive sales momentum to continue in December and next year, supported by the introduction of new models and year-end promotions and extension of the sales tax exemption.

Prince Edward Island potato growers call for end of trade suspension, but US officials want more data
FRÉDÉRICTON –
Farmers in Prince Edward Island say there is no justification for a suspension of potato exports from PEI to the United States and that it must be lifted now, but Canadian officials say the United States is asking for more information.
"It was our own government that put in place the suspension. We need this suspension to be lifted, "PEI Potato Board Executive Director Greg Donald said in an interview on Tuesday. "There is no science that says our fresh potatoes can't just go away."
Canada has banned shipments of fresh potatoes from PEI. in the United States on November 22 following the discovery of potato wart in two fields. The fungal parasite is spread by movement of infected potatoes, soil and farm equipment. It poses no threat to human health, but leaves potatoes disfigured and can drastically reduce crop yields.
"We are in the eighth week," said Donald. "We're at about $ 20 million in terms of lost business in the United States. Our producers are becoming extremely anxious and frustrated that there has not been a resolution yet. "
At the time of the suspension, Federal Agriculture Minister Marie-Claude Bibeau said if Canada had not issued the suspension voluntarily, the Americans would have imposed their own ban.
A press release issued by the minister's office last week says the United States is blocking imports and Canada must provide the technical data to show the potatoes are safe.
"On November 22, the United States Department of Agriculture instructed its border services to reject all shipments of seed, consumption and processing potatoes from PEI. information to reassure the United States, they cannot certify PEI potatoes because they do not meet US requirements under plant protection regulations, "the statement read .
A technical meeting between the CFIA and the US Department of Agriculture is scheduled for Wednesday to discuss the situation, but officials in the minister's office say it could take until 2023 to provide all information requested by states- United.
The CFIA completed a national wart scabies investigation in December and no warty scabies were found. The survey included soil tests across Canada in areas that grow seed potatoes.
"There are no problems in our fields outside of the regulated fields. This is a really important point. There was no justification to start. The investigation is further evidence that asserts it," Donald said.
But an official in the federal minister's office who provided background information said only 178 soil samples in the survey came from Prince Edward Island and only from fields where potatoes are grown. of seed. He said the United States wanted to see thousands of samples.
Just before Christmas, Minister Bibeau announced $ 28 million in funding to support PEI potato growers. affected by the trade disruption.
Donald said funding is insufficient, and while farmers are optimistic about lifting the suspension or finding new markets, it is predicted that they will soon have to start destroying the potatoes they have. in stock.
"If there is no change at the border, they are going to have to destroy the potatoes," Donald said. "It's a big decision to make."
Industry estimates that Prince Edward Island's fresh potato exports to the United States this year would have cost about $ 120 million.
Federal officials point out that the trade in processed potatoes, such as French fries and frozen crisps, is not affected by the trade suspension. In 2020, Prince Edward Island's processed potato exports to the United States were valued at $ 370.8 million.
Meanwhile, a social media campaign launched by the Island's potato industry is generating some backlash in Puerto Rico, which receives a quarter of Prince Island's annual potato exports. -Edouard to the United States. Without the shipments, potatoes are scarce and prices go up. The campaign urges people to pressure their local politicians and Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau.
Puerto Rico typically gets 80 to 85 percent of its potatoes from Prince Edward Island.
This report by The Canadian Press was first published on January 11, 2022.

We are grateful to everyone who has fed our curiosity sending us ideas and suggestions for the exhibition.
The XXII Triennale di Milano, Broken Nature: Design Takes on Human Survival, highlights the concept of restorative design and studies the state of the threads that connect humans to their natural environments––some frayed, others altogether severed. In exploring architecture and design objects and concepts at all scales and in all materials, Broken Nature celebrates design's ability to offer powerful insight into the key issues of our age, moving beyond pious deference and inconclusive anxiety. By turning its attention to human existence and persistence, the XXII Triennale will promote the importance of creative practices in surveying our species' bonds with the complex systems in the world, and designing reparations when necessary, through objects, concepts, and new systems. Even to those who believe that the human species is inevitably going to become extinct at some point in the (near? far?) future, design presents the means to plan a more elegant ending. It can ensure that the next dominant species will remember us with a modicum of respect: as dignified and caring, if not intelligent, beings.
Broken Nature is composed of a thematic exhibition and a number of international participations solicited through official channels. It will run from March 1 to September 1, 2019.

Fuel Poverty Awareness Day
Feb 17 2017 corporate
Scheme provides practical advice on energy costs, benefits and debt management and is on track to save hard up families £553,000
One couple found to be eligible for almost £13,000 worth of help
Across the country AWS projects have assisted over 30,000 homes in fuel poverty
This winter has seen the launch of a successful new initiative by National Grid Gas Distribution and Citizens Advice Coventry to bring warmth to vulnerable people across the country.
Today (Friday 17 February) is Fuel Poverty Awareness Day, an annual event run by NEA (National Energy Action) a charity seeking to end fuel poverty.
The event provides an opportunity to highlight the problems faced by those struggling to keep warm in their homes as well as showcasing work being undertaken to tackle the issues.
One such initiative was launched last October by Affordable Warmth Solutions (AWS), a community interest company set up by National Grid to tackle fuel poverty. It has involved working with Citizens Advice Coventry to launch a new service to help households across the Midlands, East Anglia, North London and the North West deal with fuel poverty issues.
The scheme offers advice and support in seven main areas. They are:
advice on making the most of incomes and managing debt
energy tariff advice including switching;
energy efficiency measures such as loft and cavity insulation; advice on boiler replacements and heating solutions;
support to help people manage their household budgets;
home energy saving measures and aids and adaptations to improve health and quality of life ;
aligning customers to priority services registers including, Western Power Distribution and Severn Trent; and
Referrals to third-party agencies, for example, for advice on health and wellbeing.
Since its inception the initiative has achieved these major successes:
262 referrals to Citizens Advice Coventry
£553,000 of potential additional income for vulnerable, hard-up householders through cost savings and benefit entitlements
53 people signed up to the Priority Services Register
One vulnerable family receiving almost £13,000 worth of support
Other recent projects have been delivered in places including Derbyshire, Walsall, Suffolk, Manchester, Westminster and Barking and Dagenham (See notes to editors for more information).
Jeremy Nesbitt, Managing Director, AWS said: "Fuel Poverty Day provides an opportunity to focus on both the heart-breaking issue of people struggling to afford to heat their homes and the positive steps we can do to tackle this. We in AWS are committed to doing all we can to help alleviate fuel poverty."
Jeremy added: "The new initiative we recently launched working alongside Citizens Advice Coventry is going really well and together we're helping many people live in more comfortable and warmer homes, whilst maximising their opportunity for additional income.
"We hope to continue this good work and will look to implement similar schemes elsewhere that complement our highly successful programme."
For more information on the scheme people can write to 35 Homer Road, Solihull, B91 3QJ telephone: (0121) 623 2052, email: admin@ngrid-aws.org.uk or visit www.affordablewarmthsolutions.org.uk

For more information on Fuel Poverty Day and the working of the NEA visit http://www.nea.org.uk/campaigns-policy/fuel-poverty-awareness-day/
This press release relates to Cadent work. It does not have Cadent branding on it, due to this press release being published prior to 1st May 2017, when this gas distribution business was part of National Grid's group of businesses.

}

A: Three errors:
First, you are overriding viewDidLoad() and defining another viewDidLoad() inside of it.
Your code:
override func viewDidLoad() {
    super.viewDidLoad()

    // Do any additional setup after loading the view.

    func viewDidLoad() {
        super.viewDidLoad()

    }
}

Should just look like this:
override func viewDidLoad() {
    super.viewDidLoad()
    // Do any additional setup after loading the view.
}

Second, you are overriding viewDidAppear but never calling super.
Your code:
override func viewDidAppear() {
    // Window Properties, including solid colour, lack of resize, movable by background.

    view.window?.titlebarAppearsTransparent = true
    view.window?.backgroundColor = NSColor.white
    view.window?.styleMask.remove(.resizable)
    view.window?.isMovableByWindowBackground = true

}

Should look like this:
override func viewDidAppear() {
    super.viewDidAppear()
    // Window Properties, including solid colour, lack of resize, movable by background.
    view.window?.titlebarAppearsTransparent = true
    view.window?.backgroundColor = NSColor.white
    view.window?.styleMask.remove(.resizable)
    view.window?.isMovableByWindowBackground = true

}

Third, you are overriding the IPAdress didSet and then setting it again. This will cause an infinite loop. You are also comparing a textField to nil, which it will never be, because it's a NSTextField!, instead of checking whether it's empty or not. I can't really make sense of what you're trying to achieve here but you should rip all this overriding nonsense out until you can clearly formulate your intention.

Last year HTC announced the HTC Exodus, a blockchain smartphone. It seemed like a rather novel idea, and to make it even more novel, HTC later announced that customers could buy the phone using only cryptocurrency. However if you were interested in the handset but do not own cryptocurrency, you're in luck.
HTC has announced that customers interested in the Exodus will now be able to buy it using real money. Previously HTC had only accepted cryptocurrencies such as Bitcoin, Ether, and Litecoin, but if you have $750 real-life money, you will be able to pick up the phone for yourself, assuming you still want one.
The handset in question is a Qualcomm Snapdragon 845 powered smartphone with a 6-inch QHD+ display, 6GB of RAM, and a 3,500mAh battery. It also sports a pretty cool translucent display on the back that shows the innards of the phone, but the main selling point of the phone is it supports blockchain and comes with its own secure enclave where it stores crypto keys.
The idea is that by keeping the enclave away from the processor and operating system, users will have a more convenient way of bringing their crypto keys around with them without having to worry about hackers stealing them. We're not sure how many people would actually need a smartphone like this, but as we said, it is priced at $750 for those who are interested in getting their hands on it.

Mouvements Dialectiques (Site Installation)
5 - 19 July, 2009
Château de La Motte-Tilly,
Champagne-Ardenne, France
In 2007, the Elizabeth Woods visited the Château de La Motte-Tilly. She was struck as much by the expansive, convivial and sumptuous charm of the architecture and grounds as by its tragic past, especially in the lives of its last owner, Aliette de Rohan-Chabot, the Marquise de Maillé who, heirless after the death of her only daughter, bequeathed the château to the French people on the intriguing condition that "the château is not inhabited, but only visited... and remains furnished as it [was at the time of her death], so the visitor beyond mere curiosity, would feel a presence."
Two years later, by invitation of the Centre des Monuments Nationaux and the Centre d'Art Marnay Art Centre (CAMAC), Ms. Woods returned with her collaborator, Kevin Leong, to create installations in the château and gardens, that establish a dialogue with the beauty and history of the home and its inhabitants. The installations intervene in the sombre reverence of the museological setting with childlike delight and mischief, creating rifts that prompt consideration on the complex, irresolute relationships between the historical and the contemporary, between the archive and the everyday, between conservation and the objects of beauty and between discontent and the objects of longing.
http://situ.net.au/projects-situ/9-mouvements-dialectiques-site-installation#sigProGalleriae52ece1659
The history, people and daily routines of the Château de La Motte-Tilly was also the subject of an exhibition of video and photographic work at the Carnegie Gallery, Hobart in 2011.
The catalogue for both events is available here.
This project has been assisted by the Australian Government through the Australia Council, its arts funding and advisory body, and through the generous support of Centre des Monuments Nationaux and Fondation Tenot (CAMAC), as well as the château's guides and caretakers.

Expert legal advice supports law graduate in crowdfunded private prosecution of Dominic Cummings
Mahsa Taliefar: there is a case against Dominic Cummings and she needs your help to take it to court.
Dominic Cummings could find himself facing an unlimited fine for breaching the Covid-19 lockdown after expert lawyers said there is a case against him.
Law graduate Mahsa Taliefar launched a funding campaign to help her bring a private prosecution against Cummings over his now-notorious trip to Durham at the end of March this year.
She sought legal advice from Benjamin Douglas-Jones QC and Nathaniel Rudolf on the practicalities of bringing a prosecution.
Their opinion is that he could indeed be prosecuted under Regulation 6 of the Health Protection (Coronavirus, Restrictions) (England) Regulations 2020
Prosecutions.
These state that "during the emergency period, no person may leave the place where they are living without reasonable excuse".
The lawyers' advice states: "The published guidance… in our view reinforces the conclusion that there is a realistic prospect of conviction in relation to this conduct."
The penalty, if such a conviction is won, would be an unlimited fine.
Concerns had been raised that Regulation 11 of the same law prevents private prosecution. It states: "Proceedings for an offence under these Regulations may be brought by the Crown Prosecution Service and any person designated by the Secretary of State."
The advice states: "At first blush this may be seen as preventing a prosecution by anyone other than the CPS or a person designated by the Secretary of State. In other words preventing a private prosecution.
"The regulation is not drafted with any precision: a literal (and absurd) reading would be in that in the absence of anyone designated by the Secretary of State the CPS may not prosecute.
"It seems to us that… permitting the Secretary of State to designate people who can prosecute the section simply clarifies that this does not oust the ability of the CPS to do the same. It does not go further.
"If Regulation 11 were to be read as excluding private prosecutors, it would also exclude the police from prosecuting, unless the police were designated by the Secretary of State as persons who can prosecute. As far as we can tell no such designation has taken place.
"Our view is that the Regulation 11 is sufficiently clear so as not to warrant, at this stage, our consideration of whether the right to bring a private prosecution had been prevented by its language. A private prosecution may be classed as a 'constitutional' right founded in statute (or common law). It would require the most explicit language to extinguish that right."
So not only could Cummings face a large fine if found guilty of breaching the regulations, but it seems entirely possible that a private prosecution may be launched against him, in order to ensure that he does so.
As This Site has already reported, Ms Taliefar is already crowdfunding for this purpose and her site may be found here.
If you agree that Cummings should be brought to book, feel free to contribute to the fund.
Have YOU donated to my crowdfunding appeal, raising funds to fight false libel claims by TV celebrities who should know better? These court cases cost a lot of money so every penny will help ensure that wealth doesn't beat justice.

Is this not a hate campaign!
Mike Sivier Post author June 29, 2020 at 1:05 pm
Not unless you are referring to Cummings's (and the Tory government's) campaign of hate against the UK's population.

Cummings is as bent and corrupt as a 2 Bob note hes as manipulative as Hitler , evil sadistic and needs to be locked up
He has proved over & over how he believes hes in charge of this country and I did not vote for that evil b*****d
House rules: no swearing. Don't do it again, please.
Boris legend June 28, 2020 at 9:51 am
Ha you have no case and it will be laughed out of court
I certainly hope this is one of Cummings's lawyers. With that kind of attitude and attention to detail, he'll end up paying a fortune.

India needs to be wary of 'Tibet development'
Claude Arpi
The writer is based in South India for the past 40 years. He writes on India, China, Tibet and Indo-French relations.

On his return to Dharamsala, the Tibetan monk announced that he may not travel abroad in future due to fatigue.
Tibetan spiritual leader the Dalai Lama (Photo: AP)
Tibet and the Dalai Lama have recently been in the news. Does this mean that the Tibet issue is moving towards a solution? Probably not!
On November 23, the Dalai Lama affirmed in Kolkata: "Tibet does not seek independence from China but wants greater development. While saying that China must respect the Tibetan culture and heritage, he added: "The past is past. We will have to look into the future. We want to stay with China. We want more development."
"Development" did not come up when the Tibetan spiritual leader met former US President Barack Obama on December 1; they discussed "compassion and altruism", according to an aide. The Dalai Lama said that the meeting with Obama was "very good, I think we are really two old trusted friends". The two leaders discussed promoting peace in today's world torn by strife and violence.
On his return to Dharamsala, the Tibe-tan monk announced that he may not travel abroad in future due to fatigue. He has nominated two official emissaries, President of the Tibetan government-in-exile Lobsang Sangay and former Prime Minister of the Tibetan government-in-exile Samdhong Rinpoche to act as his envoys.
A few days later, the Dalai Lama was again in the news, he gave an unusually long interview to a leading national daily. Apart from mentioning the Tibetan tradition and its closeness to India's belief system and their relevance today, he commented, "We need material development. And many Chinese are showing genuine appreciation of Tibetans' spiritual knowledge. Eventually in the future, with Buddhism, we could control China. Yes, this is possible!" He then added: "The Chinese government must respect Tibetan culture and language. One time, Chinese narrow-minded officials deliberately tried to eliminate Tibetan language and script — this is impossible to do. Tibetans too have an ancient culture that's difficult to eliminate." What is meant by "more development" for Tibet? For the Tibetans, it would probably translate into more Han Chinese migrating to Tibet in order to build and maintain new roads, airports, railway lines and cities. But it could mean a problem for India as all these developments will have a dual use, civil and military.
On July 1, 2016, China Military Online reported that a joint meeting on the development of military-civilian integration (known as "dual-use") of airports was held in Beijing.
On the agenda was the "Interim Provisions of Operation Security at Dual-use Airports by the PLA Air Force (PLAAF)". According to the PLA website, it is based on win-win principles for both the military and civil administration. The new arran-gement integrates the development of military-civilian airport resou-rces between the PLAAF and civil aviation. The article further expla-ined: "Its main purpose was to establish a complementary management mechanism with smooth coordination and shared resources to gradually form a support capability that guarantees flight safety at peace times and meets combat needs at wartimes."
Soon after, Lhasa Gongkar airport became one the two first "integrated" airports in China. And this led to the National People's Congress passing a new law dealing with national defence transport. The legislation covers the use of infrastructure for defence and civilian purposes. Xinhua reported: "The new law regulates planning, construction, management and use of resources in transportation sectors such as railways, roads, waterways, aviation, pipelines and mail services, for national defence."
After the recent incident at the tri-junction between Sikkim, Tibet and Bhutan, more "development" facilitating the rapid deployment of troops and airborne Special Forces on the plateau, China could be tempted to enter into a conflict with India.
The day the Dalai Lama met Obama, a Chinese website mentioned the road to Metok, the last Tibetan village before the Yarlung Tsangpo enters India in Arunachal Pradesh and becomes the Siang. The Chinese article says Metok was an "isolated island" due to lack of transportation: "The situation was unchanged until October 31, 2013 when Zhamo Road was completed …[since then] the road mileage has been increasing rapidly."
Metok administration is upgrading the road. It will take a lot of money to "upgrade" an existing road so close to the Indian border; undoubtedly, such "development" will bring more silt to the Brahmaputra …and the PLA closer to India's border.
In a related issue, former Ambassador Phunchok Stobdan commented in a news website: "Within this rapidly-unfolding scenario, the Dalai Lama appears to have sent Samdong on a discreet visit to Kunming [in China's Yunnan province]. Samdong's visit, starting from mid-November, must have been facilitated by no less than the newly-appointed head of the United Front Work Department overseas Tibetan affairs You Quan. Mr Quan, who formerly served as party secretary of Fujian, is a close associate of President Xi."
Though Samdhong's visit has not been confirmed, it is doubtful that the Tibetans would sign a deal with an authoritarian Chinese regime; it is, however, worrisome for India. If the Dalai Lama returns to Tibet, will the Tibetans take Beijing's side on for the disputed borders, particularly in Ladakh and Uttarakhand (in the case of Tawang, the Dalai Lama has made it clear time and again, that it is Indian territory)?
Another development is the nomFination of a Tibetan General Thubten Thinley to the Communist Party's 19th Congress. His job is to recruit Tibetans in the People's Liberation Army (PLA). For China, it makes sense to enroll more Tibetans in the PLA and post them on the "Indian" borders. Local Tibetans are tempted by the enrollment as it brings decent revenues to the poorer sections of society.
The Dalai Lama told the newspaper: "China needs India, India needs China …There is no other way except to live peacefully and help each other." Now, this might be true in theory, but the Doklam incident has taught us that there is a gap between the theory and the practice. India needs to be watchful of Beijing's next move on the Tibet issue.

Ideal for all types of sports and activities such as running, football, tennis, hockey, rugby and all kinds of outdoor and indoor sports.
Cut-to-fit undersoles. Add NOENE ® protection to your regular insoles.
Have you already got your sports insoles? Are you satisfied with your purchase or are you still looking for a better product? It is also possible that you have found your insoles, they fit your needs perfectly, but after so many training sessions you don't know whether you should replace them. There are many reasons why we could think about changing our sports insoles, and in the following article we are going to analyse in detail and help you so that your next purchase is an even better choice.
As we explained in our previous article ("How to choose running insoles"), running and sports insoles are, generally speaking, a medical product: they minimise the impact that our body receives with each stride and help us avoid injuries and improve our performance. Insoles alter our way of running, affect our health and, for this reason, we repeat once more the importance of using insoles of manufacturers with experience and prestige in the health sector. A good way of ensuring our purchase is to check that the sports insoles have the European Community certificate for medical devices.
Another basic aspect when evaluating the quality of sports insoles is the material with which they are made. We should not forget that our senses and perceptions can "trick us". So, for example, whereas gel insoles may initially offer a greater feeling of comfort, if we look at scientific studies (*) we can see that in reality it is the viscoelastic materials such as NOENE which can absorb more energy, as much as 92%. This absorbing capacity is what helps us avoid the vibrations produced in each stride from affecting our joints negatively.
You have twisted your ankle many times. You want to run on more irregular terrain. You start a sport with frequent changes of direction and speed (tennis, for example). If you are looking for more stability, your best option are ergonomic sports insoles, such as ERGOPRO AC+ or ERGONOMIC-AC2, which have a support on the plantar arch and fit the anatomy of the foot perfectly. In this way, you will be able to move forward with more security in each stride.
The ergonomic insoles we mentioned above also offer a greater feeling of comfort, due to the support of the plantar arch and the foam base they have. If you also prioritise that feeling of wellbeing in your feet, they may be a good choice for your next purchase.
If, on the other hand, what you are looking for is maximum lightness and a feeling of contact with the ground, you should try the INVISIBLE-SOS1, the finest and lightest absorbing insoles in the market (just 1 mm in thickness and 13 grams weight!). Ideal for competitions!
Perhaps the most well-known today are running insoles, since over the last few years running has gained many followers. However, not only runners can use insoles to help prevent injuries. The most popular sports today (among them football, tennis, paddle) also involve running and that is, precisely, what adds a workload to our lower extremities.
On many occasions the fact of starting a new sport also involves a change of footwear, since your needs may change and, in fact, the use of suitable footwear can be key to preventing pain and injuries. The use of a more or less flexible sole, the weight of the shoes, the fact that they are higher or lower… are some of the factors you should analyse according to the sport you do.
The UNIVERSAL NO2 sports insoles, 2 mm thick, protect the joints and can be placed above or below the original insole of the shoe, or also combine with the orthopaedic insole that some players need to correct or alleviate specific pathologies.
In demanding sports such as basketball or tennis (with a small playing area, a large amount of stopping and speeding, changes of direction, jumps…) it is highly probable that we are looking for some help in stabilising our step and thus avoiding the much-feared ankle sprains and other injuries. In this sense, remember that ergonomic insoles such as ERGOPRO AC+ and ERGONOMIC AC2, with support in the plantar arch, are those that offer greater stability.
If you are thinking about taking part in running competitions and what you are looking for in these races is maximum lightness and a feeling of contact with the ground, a good option are the INVISIBLE-SOS1 insoles, the absorbent insoles that are just 1 mm thick and weigh 13 grams.
If what you want is to reduce the feeling of tiredness and muscular fatigue, try the OPTIMUM-OFP2 absorbent sports insoles that also have the Nexus Energy Source fabric: a hi-tech fibre with ultrafine particles of platinum, titanium and aluminium. This fabric emits beneficial infrared waves that activate the blood circulation and oxygenation of the tissues.
For people who like walking in the mountain, of interest may be the use of heel-pads such as the SPECIFIC-TC 4, which with 4 mm thickness specifically protects the heel area.
Don't hesitate to check out our offer in sports insoles to find yours!
Personalised insoles can be used with absorbent insoles such as the UNIVERSAL NO2 or the INVISIBLE-SOS1. Check with your doctor!
In contrast, they are incompatible with ergonomic insoles such as ERGOPRO AC+ and ERGONOMIC AC2, which already have their own plantar arch to adapt to the form of your foot.
(*) Drop test, December 2013.
Study with 21 runners: evaluation of the capacity to absorb vibrations during the race. Drop test made with 7 different insoles: of EVA, gel insert and with NOENE material.


I am into my 1oth day of my Whole30 cleanse and boy has it been a huge change! Not using sweeteners in everything is new. Including this mayonnaise recipe. I normally add a teaspoon of raw honey into my homemade mayonnaise but this one is unsweetened and tastes amazing! Sometimes I make this with a little melted coconut oil and it adds a natural sweetness. My whole family loves this mayo, it is absolutely delicious and made in less than 10 minutes.
I started making homemade mayonnaise when I started the GAPS diet several years back. I did the diet for 3 months and got some really great cooking habits. I got into making almond bread, coconut bread and basically everything was from scratch. I even came up with a kid friendly grain free cookbook called Essentially Gluten Free:30 grain free recipes your kids will love. Now that I am doing the Whole30, I am grain free again. My digestion has never felt better!
I wonder what I am going to do when my 30 days are up?? I will wait to tell you! Taking out sweeteners out of my diet has been the biggest challenge. I realized I used natural sweeteners in just about everything! From chili beans, to stir fries to this homemade mayonnaise. After taking it out, the congestion I had cleared up in just 2 short days. It is not normal to have congestion and blow your nose in the morning. You should be healthy and have clear breathing. The food you eat should make you feel healthy and energized. My hormones are doing so good! In the morning, I wake up energized and hungry. That is the sign of a good metabolism. If you want to find out about the Whole30 diet, click here. Now let's get back to this delicious mayo shall we??
I have made homemade mayonnaise in many different ways. I have made it in the blender, not my favorite way. The immersion blender, pretty awesome but I burnt out the blender after 2 months, ugh! Then, my true favorite is the mini food prep processor. There are 2 holes in the top of the lid to pour the oil into so it drips slowly on it's own. The key to making a good homemade mayonnaise is that there is a proper emulsion, if not, the mayonnaise will not get thick and creamy. So make sure you blend away and DO NOT STOP blending while you are pouring that oil, or NO EMULSION will occur Blend! Blend! Blend!
Also, using the right type of oils makes a nice flavored mayonnaise. I suggest you use avocado oil, my favorite as your base. You can also use parts macadamia nut oil, melted coconut oil, or extra-virgin olive oil. I don't recommend using pure olive oil unless you can find a high quality light flavored olive oil. My local farmers market has amazing flavored olive oils that I would use because the flavor is light and fruity. Once your mayonnaise is made, you can use it in tuna salad, a lettuce wrapped burger, as a dip, a goddess dressing with avocado, tarter sauce, a chipotle mayo, OH the recipes are endless!
Just be sure to use organic pastured eggs because the eggs are raw. If you cannot find good quality organic eggs, use pasteurized eggs. This mayonnaise will last in the fridge in a sealed glass container for about a week and a half but mine is always devoured in a week. I am sure yours will be too!
Whole 30 organic homemade mayonnaise.
To your food processor, add whole egg and egg yolk. Blend for 30 seconds.
Add lemon juice, mustard powder and salt. Blend for 30 seconds.
Turn food processor on and in a slow steady stream add, vegetable oil while food processor is running until all oil has been slowly added. If you are using a mini food prep food processor, slowly add oil to top lid of food processor where holes are. The oil will slowly drip through the holes. When oil drains, refill and keep adding oil until you have used up all the vegetable oil. Taste for seasoning and adjust accordingly.
It tastes delicious – but i didn't use a food processor, i used a hand muxer and it didn't turn out as thick as yours looks in photo. Yours appears creamier than mine. If i put in processor now (day later) might it thicken up? Or do i need to use a thickening agent?
Hi Ester – made this again using the food processor – thick and creamy. Just like store bought. Super quick and easy too. Thank you!

« Prev Article. 3 - Whether God is everywhere by… Next »
Whether God is everywhere by essence, presence and power?
Objection 1: It seems that the mode of God's existence in all things is not properly described by way of essence, presence and power. For what is by essence in anything, is in it essentially. But God is not essentially in things; for He does not belong to the essence of anything. Therefore it ought not to be said that God is in things by essence, presence and power.
Objection 2: Further, to be present in anything means not to be absent from it. Now this is the meaning of God being in things by His essence, that He is not absent from anything. Therefore the presence of God in all things by essence and presence means the same thing. Therefore it is superfluous to say that God is present in things by His essence, presence and power.
Objection 3: Further, as God by His power is the principle of all things, so He is the same likewise by His knowledge and will. But it is not said that He is in things by knowledge and will. Therefore neither is He present by His power.
Objection 4: Further, as grace is a perfection added to the substance of a thing, so many other perfections are likewise added. Therefore if God is said to be in certain persons in a special way by grace, it seems that according to every perfection there ought to be a special mode of God's existence in things.
On the contrary, A gloss on the Canticle of Canticles (5) says that, "God by a common mode is in all things by His presence, power and substance; still He is said to be present more familiarly in some by grace" [*The quotation is from St. Gregory, (Hom. viii in Ezech.)].
I answer that, God is said to be in a thing in two ways; in one way after the manner of an efficient cause; and thus He is in all things created by Him; in another way he is in things as the object of operation is in the operator; and this is proper to the operations of the soul, according as the thing known is in the one who knows; and the thing desired in the one desiring. In this second way God is especially in the rational creature which knows and loves Him actually or habitually. And because the rational creature possesses this prerogative by grace, as will be shown later (Q[12]). He is said to be thus in the saints by grace.
But how He is in other things created by Him, may be considered from human affairs. A king, for example, is said to be in the whole kingdom by his power, although he is not everywhere present. Again a thing is said to be by its presence in other things which are subject to its inspection; as things in a house are said to be present to anyone, who nevertheless may not be in substance in every part of the house. Lastly, a thing is said to be by way of substance or essence in that place in which its substance may be. Now there were some (the Manichees) who said that spiritual and incorporeal things were subject to the divine power; but that visible and corporeal things were subject to the power of a contrary principle. Therefore against these it is necessary to say that God is in all things by His power.
But others, though they believed that all things were subject to the divine power, still did not allow that divine providence extended to these inferior bodies, and in the person of these it is said, "He walketh about the poles of the heavens; and He doth not consider our things [*Vulg.: 'He doth not consider . . . and He walketh,' etc.]" (Job 22:14). Against these it is necessary to say that God is in all things by His presence.
Further, others said that, although all things are subject to God's providence, still all things are not immediately created by God; but that He immediately created the first creatures, and these created the others. Against these it is necessary to say that He is in all things by His essence.
Therefore, God is in all things by His power, inasmuch as all things are subject to His power; He is by His presence in all things, as all things are bare and open to His eyes; He is in all things by His essence, inasmuch as He is present to all as the cause of their being.
Reply to Objection 1: God is said to be in all things by essence, not indeed by the essence of the things themselves, as if He were of their essence; but by His own essence; because His substance is present to all things as the cause of their being.
Reply to Objection 2: A thing can be said to be present to another, when in its sight, though the thing may be distant in substance, as was shown in this article; and therefore two modes of presence are necessary; viz. by essence and by presence.
Reply to Objection 3: Knowledge and will require that the thing known should be in the one who knows, and the thing willed in the one who wills. Hence by knowledge and will things are more truly in God than God in things. But power is the principle of acting on another; hence by power the agent is related and applied to an external thing; thus by power an agent may be said to be present to another.
Reply to Objection 4: No other perfection, except grace, added to substance, renders God present in anything as the object known and loved; therefore only grace constitutes a special mode of God's existence in things. There is, however, another special mode of God's existence in man by union, which will be treated of in its own place (TP).

Max, On 6 Gauge Wire - In order for the effect to continue with extra cable conductors, doubling is needed whenever (eg 2x 20 awg = 17 awg equal, to go down (large) every other 3 awg would require doubling your 17 awg equal another time; ie 4x 20 awg = 14 awg equivalent, 8x 20 awg = 11 awg equivalent; to move down another three awg equal now calls for sixteen conductors, then 32, and so on).
If you twist two wires collectively, every could deliver half the current, so that you'd "correctly growth the gauge." American twine gauges go down by approximately 10 for every issue of ten in cross-sectional region. In case you had ten #20 wires related in parallel, they could deliver as plenty electricity as one #10 twine. With #20 wires, you would have the equivalent of one #17 wire.
I don't know if a sprinkler in this case manner a fire extinguishing sprinkler or only a gardening sprinkler. If it is for safety gadget i would virtually get an appropriate wire gauge from the start, to not threat that a twisted wire receives "untwisted" so the sprinkler may not be able to operate.
Have a question you would like dr. Sound to answer? Send it to dr. Sound and he's going to solution it right away. It could even seem in next month's e-newsletter and you'll receive a free t-shirt for prevailing the tech tip of the month submission!.
Usually select a fuse length to defend the wire in step with its rating. In some instances, a product manufacturer will specify a fuse fee and it'll usually be lower than that required for protective the twine. If this fuse price is too excessive to protect the twine, use a larger cord in the circuit. Evaluation part 1 for more information on selecting twine length for a dc circuit.
This will make perfect sense to me if the wires had been naked (no green/purple/white/black plastic coat round it) so it might be copper twisted the entire period instead of simply the ends... Does the coat affect the present day? I'm now not an electrician or ee so i am not too certain about this. Power=cutting-edge^2 * resistance meaning that decreasing the resistance will make your twine less hot. When you have too high resistance the cord receives warm, it'd burn off or burn soemthing else, in worst case motive fireplace. If the current is small, probable the most stressful impact can be that at the end of the cord the voltage you install can have reduced due to the resistance.


Oh how I've been hanging out for the new Inside Out. I'm such an addict! An email from Lee Tran Lam, Managing Editor, gave me little butterflies of excitement. I knew she would be sharing another fabulous home with us. I was wrong. There wasn't a sneak peek attached. No there were two!
"The first home – styled by Andrea Millar and photographed by Prue Ruscoe – is a really quirky warehouse in Sydney. There's a "Spaghetti Bar" sign in the kitchenette, a lap timer clock from a swimming school in the dining room and even a trapeze (!) that hangs between the second and third level. (Originally, there was a rope and pulley system between the floors to move goods. The owners put the swing up to take over the void – and use it for chin ups and fooling around!) My favourite room would be the teenage daughter's bedroom, which has this ultra-colourful rug that looks like a rainbow of burst balloons have been swept into the room." I love this home. I'd move in tomorrow! The second house? I'll share that one in a few hours. Completely different and very cool!
Aussie readers can pick up their copy of the Jan/Feb Inside Out Thursday. Don't fret if you aren't in Australia though because you can read along on Zinio, Google Play and the Apple Newsstand.
Lovely – those bathroom sconces are so unique!
