De Grand Prix-wegrace van Zweden 1983 was de tiende Grand Prix van het wereldkampioenschap wegrace-seizoen 1983. De races werden verreden op 6 en 7 augustus 1983 op de Scandinavian Raceway nabij Anderstorp (Jönköpings län). Tijdens deze Grand Prix werd de wereldtitel in de zijspanklasse beslist. De 250cc-klasse reed haar laatste race van dit seizoen.

Algemeen
Zoals altijd werd de Zweedse Grand Prix over twee dagen uitgesmeerd, hoewel er slechts vier klassen aan de start kwamen. De 250cc-klasse reed al op zaterdag maar werd matig door het publiek bezocht, want men was niet bereid twee keer in de beurs te tasten voor een dergelijk beknopt programma.

500cc-klasse
Met slechts twee punten verschil in de totaalstand tussen Freddie Spencer en Kenny Roberts was de spanning in de 500cc-klasse al voor de start te snijden. Dit keer startte Roberts beter dan in de meeste andere races: hij was als vierde weg achter Spencer, Marco Lucchinelli en Ron Haslam, maar voor de eerste bocht lag hij al op de tweede plaats. Vijf ronden lang volgde Roberts Spencer, terwijl er al een gat ontstond met de groep Lucchinelli, Haslam, Marc Fontan, Takazumi Katayama, Raymond Roche, Toni Mang en Boet van Dulmen (nu eindelijk op een echte fabrieks-Suzuki). Na de vijfde ronde nam Roberts de leiding, maar hij kon nooit meer dan 1½ seconde afstand nemen van Spencer. Vijf ronden voor het einde begon Spencer te zoeken naar een plek om Roberts in te halen, maar die maakte geen fouten en liet daar geen ruimte voor. Dat dwong Spencer in de laatste ronde tot een soort kamikaze-actie. Aan het einde van de oude startbaan probeerde hij Roberts uit te remmen, waarbij Roberts het gras in moest om een aanrijding te vermijden. Spencer zelf kwam ook naast de baan terecht, maar kon eerder het asfalt weer op en won de race.

250cc-klasse
Al het hele seizoen was de 250cc-klasse de spannendste geweest, met kopgroepen van soms wel tien man. De regen in Zweden scheidde echter het kaf van het koren. Tien ronden lang leidde Hervé Guilleux, mede omdat regenrijder Christian Sarron nogal slecht gestart was. Toen Sarron eenmaal langszij kwam probeerde Guilleux niet lang te volgen. Hij stelde zich tevreden met de tweede plaats. Om de derde plaats was er een leuk gevecht tussen Tony Head, Alan Carter, Jean-Michel Mattioli en Carlos Lavado, dat de laatste in zijn voordeel besliste. Dit was de laatste race van Jean-Louis Tournadre, die als regerend wereldkampioen geen enkel punt had gescoord en teleurgesteld besloot zijn carrière te beëindigen.

125cc-klasse
De 250cc-race - normaal de spannendste van een GP - was nogal saai verlopen, maar doordat Eugenio Lazzarini en Ángel Nieto niet startten kon de 125cc-race die rol overnemen. Hier ontstond een kopgroep met Hans Müller, Ricardo Tormo, August Auinger, Maurizio Vitali en Johnny Wickström, die zelfs nog groter werd toen ook Fausto Gresini, Pier Paolo Bianchi, Willy Pérez, Pierluigi Aldrovandi en ten slotte Bruno Kneubühler aansloten. De posities wisselden voortdurend, maar uiteindelijk gaf de routine van de 38-jarige Kneubühler de doorslag: hij won voor Gresini en Auinger en was daardoor al bijna zeker van een tweede plaats in de eindrangschikking.

Zijspannen
Rolf Biland startte het snelst in Zweden, maar Egbert Streuer miste de aansluiting omdat hij drie ronden nodig had om Werner Schwärzel te passeren. Daarmee was ook meteen de spanning uit de race, want Streuer besefte dat Biland achtervolgen geen zin had omdat die nog steeds niet op volle snelheid reed. Streuer kon op zijn gemak tweede worden, bijna een halve minuut vóór Schwärzel. Rolf Biland en Kurt Waltisperg stelden met hun overwinning hun tweede gezamenlijke wereldtitel veilig.

Super Bowl 53: Why Live Betting is Worth Your Time
Football Jan 28th, 2019 by John Jacobs
Super Bowl 53 is almost here. There is officially less than a full week between us and a pretty intense showdown between Bill Belichick and Sean McVay.
Two geniuses, an all-time great quarterback and heaping mounds of speculation are coming at us at ramming speed. No pun intended.
In all seriousness, this could be one of the best Super Bowls ever by the time it's done and an entire week of Super Bowl media hype will only prop that notion up.
But everything that's gotten us to this point has encouraged sports bettors to look at the game itself, placing wagers on it before it's even actually arrived.
While that's the popular way to bet on the Super Bowl and the majority of the logical paths to monetary profit lean that way, there's a strong case for waiting to pull the trigger on your Super Bowl 53 wagers.
How? With Super Bowl live betting, of course.

It's not something every bettor thinks about, because most of the traditional betting options have to do with the build-up before the game. There's plenty of reason to bet on the Super Bowl live, however. Let's break down why doing so could be worth your time:
It's Fun
Like anything worth doing, Super Bowl live betting is something you should think about because it's a ton of fun.
Betting on Super Bowl 53 in any regard is going to bring you joy, both because it's an enhancer to the game itself and if you're smart with your bets, they can also win you some cash.
Sports betting in general isn't something people do just for the heck of it. The two main reasons aren't going away; they want to make some money and it's an enjoyable activity.
If you can combine those two narratives, all the better.
For me, betting on Super Bowl 53 specifically could have a lot to do with the possibility that the Patriots as we know them are slowly coming to an end.
To be fair, virtually everyone counted New England out before the playoffs even started and here they are. However, Tom Brady will be 42 years old before next season starts, Bill Belichick is inching towards the age of 70 and the writing has been on the wall that this is probably it for Rob Gronkowski.
If the framework remains in place for 2019, it's tough to say the Pats won't still rule the AFC East and again compete for a shot at a title. However, what if this really is the beginning of the end?
Even the slight chance of that being the case makes this an iconic Super Bowl to bet on. That means you'll want to toss in some wagers before the show starts and probably during as well.
Your Failed Bets Can Be Forgotten
Another huge reason to bet on the Super Bowl as it happens is you can instantly eradicate any pre-game bets that have already failed you.
This pertains to a litany of Super Bowl 53 props bets, whether it's something to do with the National Anthem, the coin toss or anything else the top NFL betting sites offer before the game starts.
Maybe you bet on a sleeper player to win Super Bowl MVP. Once the game starts, you find out they were ruled inactive at the last second or they got hurt on the opening kickoff.
Whatever your early bets may have been, once the game starts they increasingly grow closer to being utter failures or impressive successes. If most of them register under the former category, you can forget about them with fresh bets on the fly as the game is being played out.
You Can Hedge Your Bets
This is without a doubt built into the whole "forgetting failed bets" notion, but in this case you don't really want to completely ignore where you went wrong.
Instead, you want to identify Super Bowl wagers you've already placed that are destined to lose you money. The idea is to flip the script on your Super Bowl betting results by reverse targeting these wagers with live bets that go against your initial bet.
Love Tom Brady as Super Bowl MVP and he's playing terribly?
Perhaps a website out there offers live Super Bowl MVP betting. If so, you can place money down on someone else rising to the top and stealing the trophy.
Maybe you simply went with the Pats as the favorite and Los Angeles storms out to a huge 20-0 lead. You can them opt to roll with the Rams as the new heavy favorite, or hope on the underdog money and throw down a new bet in favor of the Patriots.
Whatever the case, live Super Bowl betting allows for you to make up for mistakes made before the game starts. You just need to be careful which bets you opt to hedge and how much cash you invest and recouping those poor wagers.
You Can Have a Massive Edge
Depending on your football knowledge and your research, there's a very good chance you can hold a far greater edge with NFL live betting than with regular football betting.
Why? Because the top Super Bowl betting sites are going through their own process in a very short amount of time, putting up and taking down wagers, while also changing lines. This is all happening in real time, just as you are trying to decide which bets to attack and how much money to put on the line.
That arguably levels the playing field quite a bit, putting your research and football betting IQ at the forefront and giving you a good amount of control as to how things will play out.
This could help in a number of ways, but one great example is Super Bowl 51, which saw the New England Patriots fall into an ugly 28-3 hole.
Few probably anticipated the greatest comeback in Super Bowl history was about to go down, but a number of sites surely offered updated lines during the game, including bets on the spread, moneyline, and Total.
That could have been for the remainder of the game or on a quarter by quarter basis. In addition, had you taken a leap of faith and attacked a Super Bowl MVP bet with Brady as your pick, you could have soaked up a ton of value in an unlikely setting.
Just be aware that while you have the opportunity to gain a massive edge, live betting also carries some risk. Vegas not having a clear view on how things will play out can benefit you, but nobody being able to predict things as they come also could work in their favor.
There are just a lot of easy paths to elite betting value when you decide to bet live on the Super Bowl. Player injuries, coaching styles and the way the game has played out can all make the entire betting process a lot easier.
The second that first score happens, the lines can start to shift, and once you throw in player injuries, how coaches tend to adjust and how teams perform when playing from behind, on the road – the list goes on – you can start projecting how things can play out from there.
Ultimately, the biggest reason for Super Bowl 53 live betting is the draw of this specific matchup. Sean McVay vs. Bill Belichick is arguably the most compelling element to this game, but then you also get an aging Tom Brady facing off with a young and rising Jared Goff.
Brandin Cooks will also be hoping to dish out some revenge against his former squad, Rob Gronkowski potentially playing in his final NFL game will drum up interest and Todd Gurley trying to will the Rams to their second Lombardi Trophy is also an engaging take.
There are storylines abound in Super Bowl 53, while bettors have to really consider both of these teams are loaded with talent and play with undying spirits. They both went into overtime in their conference championship games after all, so writing either of these squads off before the final whistle may be ill-advised.
Of all the reasons to bet on Super Bowl 53 live, the latter may take the cake for me.
Neither of these teams are truly dead until the game is officially over, so that could keep tantalizing wagers featuring the spread, moneyline, Total and a number of player prop bets alive and well until this year's Super Bowl champion is crowned.

Thank you to the mystery person who sent me a bright orange sitting up in bed pillow. Thank you to all the people who are giving me their emails for the "how'd the surgery go" mailing list even though they know I already have their email. A special huge thank you to my most devoted Words with Friends friends JohnD, LisaR, and Caro. The distraction is invaluable while experiencing multiple types of sick combined with insomnia. East Coast rules at 4 a.m. PST!
I've a row of books I may read, a row of movies I may watch, some handy things in case I feel crafty. A lot of optimism on the bookshelf by my bed. Most important it will be clean and neat, equally easy to sleep in as be busy.
I hung the scarf my previous coworkers made me for the last surgery where I could see it. I think I'm going to put about as much beautiful stuff of the like as possible. Things given to me, things made for me, things that will remind me there are people out there rooting for me.
Speaking of which. Thank you to Glory for thinking of me, to Stacey for her generosity, Osiris for hosting me, Caro for making plans to come visit for my post-surgery birthday, and Winnie always for her eCards. I am surrounded by amazing people.
Yesterday was a "bad head" day. So is today. I power through what I need to like work. Try to do a few things to make myself feel normal like take a coffee break with Donna. Get home from work and lay down. Odds are I will fall asleep, wake up late, eat dinner, go back to sleep. I am going to have a super restful weekend and will try to post more Monday.

Harcerskie Schronisko Turystyczne Kostrzyca – schronisko turystyczne wybudowane w latach 1934–1935 roku na południowym stoku Kostrzycy w Czarnohorze. Pozostawało w zarządzie Związku Harcerstwa Polskiego. Uległo zniszczeniu w czasie II wojny światowej.

Uznawano je za jedno z najładniejszych schronisk Polski międzywojennej.

Najprostszym sposobem dotarcia do obiektu było pokonanie 11-kilometrowej trasy z Worochty do gajówki Kukul kolejką leśną (wąskotorową; ok. 45 min), skąd do budynku prowadził niebieski szlak turystyczny (1–1,5 h).

Historia
Na początku lat 30. XX wieku władze polskie przyjęły założenia dotyczące rozwoju infrastruktury turystycznej w Karpatach Wschodnich pozostających w granicach kraju. Dnia 29 czerwca 1933 r. odbyła się konferencja turystyczna zorganizowana przez Państwowy Urząd Wychowania Fizycznego i Przysposobienia Wojskowego z udziałem przedstawicieli licznych ministerstw, organizacji przyrodniczych, krajoznawczych i turystycznych. W jej trakcie dokonano podziału zadań pomiędzy poszczególne zainteresowane podmioty. Związkowi Harcerstwa Polskiego (ZHP) powierzono budowę schroniska w rejonie czarnohorskiej Kostrzycy.

Dokładna lokalizacja została wytypowana we wrześniu tego roku, podczas wędrówki trzech warszawskich instruktorek harcerskich: Haliny Iwaszkiewiczówny, Heleny Ter-Gazarianówny i trzeciej, nieznanej z imienia. Doszły one wówczas do przekonania, że zbocza Kostrzycy słynące z widoków na główne pasmo Czarnohory będą idealnym miejscem na wzniesienie harcerskiego schroniska. Kilka dni później za kwotę 200 zł zakupiono od właściciela terenu, Sorochmaniuka z Jabłonicy działkę o powierzchni pół hektara, na której zamierzano postawić budynek. Początkowo obiekt miał być stosunkowo niewielki i mieścić 20–30 osób, jednak wkrótce inicjatywa zyskała szersze poparcie, w tym m.in. Janiny Świtalskiej (żony byłego premiera i marszałka sejmu Kazimierza Świtalskiego) czy Towarzystwa Przyjaciół Huculszczyzny gen. Tadeusza Kasprzyckiego, dzięki czemu plany mogły ulec zmianie. Jeszcze w tym samym roku konkurs na projekt schroniska wygrał warszawski architekt Jerzy Antoni Żukowski (późniejszy projektant schroniska ZHP na Głodówce). Wkrótce Harcerski Klub Narciarski złożył do urzędu wojewódzkiego w Stanisławowie plany budynku mogącego pomieścić do 70 osób. W grudniu 1933 roku formalnie powołano do życia Towarzystwo Budowy Harcerskich Schronisk Turystycznych w Warszawie (TBHST), które odtąd odpowiadało za przebieg prac. Na jego czele stanęła Janina Świtalska.

Po tym, jak w końcu kwietnia 1934 roku projekt zyskał akceptację władz wojewódzkich, w lipcu rozpoczęły się prace budowlane. Jeszcze w tym samym roku wybudowano kamienny parter z surowca pozyskanego z parceli. Rozpoczęto także ścinanie drzew we wskazanym przez władze leśne miejscu. Z uwagi na trudne warunki atmosferyczne po przerwie zimowej prace wznowiono dopiero latem kolejnego roku. Największą trudnością, jaką należało pokonać podczas budowy, był transport materiałów, jako że do wznoszonego schroniska nie prowadziła żadna droga kołowa. Tym samym wszystkie surowce (poza kamieniem i drewnem), gotowe elementy konstrukcyjne i całe wyposażenie sprowadzano koleją do Worochty, a stamtąd wąskotorową kolejką leśną do gajówki Kukul (Ozirny). Pozostały odcinek (ok. 2,9 km przy ok. 450 m przewyższenia) wymagał transportu konnego po wąskiej i nieutwardzonej ścieżce, której stan w miarę użytkowania – szczególnie w deszczowych okresach – stale się pogarszał. Ostatecznie koszty transportu pochłonęły aż 21% całości środków przeznaczonych na budowę.

Prace budowlane zakończono 15 października 1935 r. Oficjalne otwarcie w obecności zaproszonych gości, miejscowej ludności i worochciańskiego księdza, który poświecił obiekt, odbyło się dokładnie dwa miesiące później. Podczas uroczystości obecny był m.in. Czesław Centkiewicz, wówczas początkujący autor, który zaprezentował wspomnienia z wyprawy na Wyspę Niedźwiedzią.

Jeszcze przed oficjalnym otwarciem ZHP (któremu udostępniono schronisko pozostające nadal własnością TBHST) w porozumieniu z Polskim Towarzystwem Tatrzańskim wytrasowało w okolicy kilka szlaków turystycznych. Schronisko zasadniczo nakierowane było na obsługę zorganizowanych grup turystycznych (w pierwszej kolejności harcerskich). W sezonie zimowym 1935/1936 obsłużyło siedem kursów narciarskich. W schronisku działała górska stacja ratunkowa Towarzystwa Krzewienia Narciarstwa oraz pośrednictwo pocztowe.

Obiekt prowadziły m.in. harcerki Barbara Litwicka z Inowrocławia (1938–1939) i Janina Zięba ze Starego Sącza (tuż przed wybuchem wojny).

Schronisko najprawdopodobniej uległo zniszczeniu w czasie II wojny światowej, choć jego dokładne losy nie są znane. Według niektórych autorów drewniana część budynku nie spłonęła (jak powszechnie się przyjmuje), a została w czasie wojny rozebrana. Do drugiej dekady XXI wieku zachowały się jedynie fragmenty kamiennych ścian niskiego parteru.

Forma architektoniczna
Z uwagi na położenie na terenie rezerwatu przyrody, jednym z wymagań stawianych przez władze państwowe było zastosowanie rozwiązań nawiązujących do architektury miejscowej, zharmonizowanych z otoczeniem. Autor projektu Jerzy Żukowski zdecydował się na budowę schroniska w formie huculskiej grażdy – czworobocznej zamkniętej zagrody obejmującej zabudowania mieszkalne i gospodarcze. Konieczne było jednak daleko idące dostosowanie tradycyjnej formy chaty posedkowej (stale zamieszkałej) do wymagań nowoczesnego schroniska. Przede wszystkim znacząco zmieniono układ i funkcję poszczególnych pomieszczeń. Bryła schroniska była co do zasady parterowa, z użytkowym poddaszem w centralnej części budynku. Całość dopełniały dwa symetryczne, niższe skrzydła i zamykający podwórze wysoki parkan z bramką. Z uwagi na nachylenie stoku obiekt posiadał urządzone przyziemie (niski parter). Ściany tej najniższej kondygnacji – częściowo zagłębionej w gruncie – zbudowane były z bloków miejscowego piaskowca o grubości 50 cm, częściowo też z cegieł, z 10–15-centymetrową izolacją zewnętrzną (w zależności od pomieszczenia). Na wyższych kondygnacjach zastosowano konstrukcję wieńcową – wykorzystano 16-metrowe szpuntowane połowizny bali (protesy) o grubości 14–18 cm. Dzięki precyzyjnej pracy miejscowych cieśli drewniane ściany nie wymagały uszczelniania (mszenia, szalowania), a jedynie zostały zheblowane do połysku. Budynek główny nakryto wysokim dachem półszczytowym. Przyczółki ozdobiono ludowymi wzorami geometrycznymi wykonanymi z różnokolorowego drewna. Choć początkowy projekt zakładał wykorzystanie tradycyjnych dranic, to ostatecznie z uwagi na wysokie koszty ich produkcji dach pokryto gontem. Wewnętrzne podwórze wyłożono płaskimi kamieniami.

Ukończony budynek miał 16 m wysokości, a jego powierzchnia użytkowa wynosiła 354 m². Całkowita kubatura wyniosła 1310 m³ (pierwotny projekt mówił o 1207 m³).

Wyposażenie

Schronisko na Kostrzycy oferowało odwiedzającym je stosunkowo wysoki, jak na swoją epokę, standard usług. Obiekt posiadał kanalizację – na działce znajdowało się oddzielne ujęcie wody o wydajności 3500 l na dobę, a w budynku zainstalowano 1500-litrowy zbiornik na wodę i 250-litrowy bojler. Obiekt posiadał własny agregat prądotwórczy działający na ropę o mocy 3 KM, który zlokalizowano w osobnym, ogniotrwałym budynku gospodarczym.

Na niskim parterze schroniska zlokalizowano trzy sypialnie (10-osobową i dwie 8-osobowe – początkowo przeznaczone dla 8, 8 i 6 osób), łazienki z natryskami i toalety (oddzielne dla kobiet i mężczyzn) oraz piwnicę. Kolejna kondygnacja (wysoki parter) mieściła kuchnię, kuchnię turystyczną, dwie sypialnie (dla 8 i 12 osób – pierwotnie z przeznaczeniem dla 4 i 8 osób), pomieszczenia gospodarcze i służbowe, mieszkanie gospodarza oraz narciarnię. Centralnym pomieszczeniem była obszerna jadalnia mogąca pomieścić jednocześnie 45 osób. Została ona urządzona w stylu lokalnym z licznymi przykładami twórczości ludowej. Znajdowały się w niej meble w stylu huculskim, rzeźbiony strop, ozdobne lichtarze, kilimy, obraz przedstawiający św. Jura, zdobiona zastawa. Wszystkie te przedmioty pochodziły ze słynącej z rękodzieła Riczki. W jadalni, oprócz zwykłego pieca, znajdował się także kominek huculski zdobiony polerowanymi kaflami o wartości muzealnej. Wyprodukowane w 1858 roku w Kosowie przedstawiały sceny z polowań, rysunki zwierząt i ludzi.

Na poddaszu znajdowały się trzy niewielkie pokoje sypialne, pozostałą zaś przestrzeń przeznaczono dla większych grup. Poddasze początkowo wykorzystywano jedynie w połowie, jednak od samego początku przewidywano jego rozbudowę. W niedługim czasie liczba miejsc noclegowych w schronisku sięgnęła docelowych 70.

The facelifted A4, launched just a few months ago, follows Audi's philosophy of making every car look almost the same. That said, this is a good-looking machine and the new LED strips in the headlights give it one of the coolest front views we've seen in a long time. Like all Audis, the A4 blends drivability and comfort well, but one of the best things about it is its multimedia interface, which has trickled down to the entry-level sedan from the A8 and A7. Pick the 2.0 TDI for its smooth ride quality and fantastic fuel economy.
Hot: Strong, aggressive looks. Feature-packed multimedia system; sporty interiors. The diesel engine in the 2.0 TDI is a class apart.
Not: The 3.0 TD.I Quattro costs 39 lakh – we'd rather get an entry-level A6 for that money.
The F30 is the longest, widest and tallest 3 Series ever, but it's also about 40 kg lighter than its predecessor. The latest generation is the most masculine and best-looking, too, making it an extremely compelling buy. There's loads of toys inside, too, like Parking Assist, Active Cruise Control and a full-colour Heads Up Display. The new 328i is also probably the best-driving, entry-level luxury sedan in the country today, though it costs more than several cars that are considered to be in a higher segment.
Hot: Fabulous looks. Best handling car of the lot, with the most sophisticated and intuitive infotainment system. The 328i floats like a Lotus and stings like a Lamborghini.
Not: The basic model lacks several features, including telephony, and ticking boxes on the options list will see you go broke faster than Bruce Wayne in The Dark Knight Rises.
Merc's bestselling saloon is a smooth, refined machine. Unless you go for the incredibly loud and mean C63 AMG, it's the quietest and most comfortable car in this segment. The 250 CDI Sport with the AMG-tuned suspension gives you a superbly relaxing ride that smooths out even the most ruthless of Indian potholes. It doesn't have the sporty credentials of the BMW, so it moves around silently and stealthily. The steering is as soft as butter and the panoramic sunroof is a must-have.
Hot: Very comfortable and quiet; excellent diesel engine, which, when coupled with the AMG Sports Pack, offers the best ride for the price. Easy to maintain in India because of high dealer penetration.
Not: Bland, boring looks. Its multimedia system is less impressive than that of its German rivals.
Surprised to find a Korean in a German-dominated field? The new Sonata impressed us so much that we decided it belongs in the same category as the big boys. When, eventually, you move beyond its stunning body, you'll find a well-made, feature-packed, super-comfortable sedan that has a powerful engine to boot. Though the entertainment system is positively medieval by German standards (there's no colour LCD screen or Satnav capability), it has all the bells and whistles you'd expect in a luxury car.
would be the best car money could buy.

Lillian A. Mobley
A tireless community activist with a drive to stand up for the rights of others, Lillian A. Mobley, also known as "Mother Mobley", was on the frontlines after the Watts Revolt to establish CDU and the Martin Luther King Jr. Hospital.
Born in Macon, Georgia, Mobley headed out to California in 1951. Her activism began when her children began school. Following the Watts Revolt, she joined Mary B. Henry, Caffie Green, Johnnie Taylor and Nola Carter to bring quality health care to the community. In 1967, she became involved in the Neighborhood Adult Participation Project, an anti-poverty program designed to provide training and employment opportunities for adults in poor neighborhoods. In 1980, Mobley was elected as a delegate to the Democratic National Convention. Her influence spanned across the city as she sat on numerous boards and advisory councils related to issues of transportation, education, aging, and health care.
Upon Mobley's passing in 2011, Congresswoman Maxine Waters wrote: "Lillian Mobley is one of the icons of South Central and the Watts communities of Los Angeles that has helped to educate the city and the country about the problems of poor people and working folks and the struggles that they encounter on a daily basis. She was the voice that articulated their pain, their challenges, their hopes and dreams."

WEST HAM are looking to move for Tottenham and Manchester United target Alexandre Lacazette this summer.
That's according to the Evening Standard, who say Slaven Bilic has stepped up his interest in the attacker who currently plies his trade at Lyon.
The Hammers are the latest side to be linked with the 24-year-old while United, Spurs and Liverpool have all been floated as potential destinations for Lacazette.
The France international is expected to command a fee of around £25m.
Lacazette has spent his whole senior career at Lyon, having made 227 appearances for the French club and scoring 89 goals in the process.
He's also progressed through the French international ranks, playing for all youth age groups.
And now he's made 10 appearances for the senior team, scoring 10 goals, although he doesn't look likely to appear for France at Euro 2016.

Debunking The Dinosaurs: Dismantling Snowden's Detractors
June 27, 2015 contraspin	32 Comments
With the Sunday Times Snowden smear completely, utterly and thoroughly debunked, notably if not inadvertently by the journalist and editor themselves, it is time to move on to some of the logical fallacies and prevailing attitudes that continue to support the (albeit-dwindling) anti-Snowden sentiment lingering among certain political hangers-on.
While there were a number of humble apologies made in the Twittersphere and eventually, a "correction", the most stubborn of establishment sycophants seem determined to press their case.
In particular, the below 15-point Twitter diatribe by columnist Michael Cohen was unmissable and he raised a number of easily dispellable falsehoods that less astute observers appear to have fallen victim to. Let's take a closer look.
Given that the journalist himself openly stated that that's precisely what they were doing. it is Cohen's tweet that is absurd, rather than Greenwald's theorum.
But what about that Vine. The journalist says, direct quote:
We just publish what we believe to be the position of the British Government – Tom Harper, Sunday Times journalist
There we have it. Straight from the horse's mouth.
Many national security reporters, analysts and correspondents have far closer, more incestuous and uncritical relationships with the security state that they are supposed to investigate. Public relations executives have invaded the management structure of major print publications and the public relations industry has grown while journalism as a whole has atrophied. State corruption of mainstream media dates back at least half a century.
What Michael Cohen is really accusing Glenn Greenwald of is loyalty to his source, national security whistle-blower Edward Snowden; an accusation which conversely espouses a disloyalty to the establishment which seeks to manipulate public discourse in favour of government policies – policies which include pervasive secrecy and the withholding of information in the public interest from the public arena.
Greenwald's adversarial role is precisely what real journalism is about. His loyalty absolutely should be with his well-respected and internationally-renowned source, whose veracity and historic significance are long-since established, rather than with Democrat or Republican party lines trumpeted by those with a financial and political interest in the continuation of the status quo.
Glenn Greenwald has been very open from the outset about the interrogation that went into vetting Snowden. Quoting from Greenwald's interview with PBS's Frontline:
Having been a lawyer before I was a journalist, and having been a litigator, and therefore having taken a lot of depositions, the purpose of which is to take somebody's story and just break it down through hours of relentless questioning, where you just ask them similar questions but from different angles and different contexts to ask how reliable those claims are, because if somebody is lying, that process will usually ultimately reveal that, I decided to use those tactics, because I had to be 100 percent certain that I kicked the tires as hard as I could on his story.
The hotel room was relatively small. He sat on his bed. I sat on a chair, probably three feet away from him, maybe four or five feet, and I just looked at him, and I just asked him one question after the next. He didn't go to the bathroom. He didn't eat. He didn't stop and have water. It was really a very rigorous interrogation. I think he later said that it was much more intense than debriefing sessions that he had at the CIA.
I wanted it to be that way by design, because I felt confident that if there was some mendacity or deceit or something scripted, that I would be able to discover it through that process. By the end of that five or six hours, I had zero doubt that he was completely real.
Greenwald went on to spend a further two weeks interviewing Snowden in Hong Kong, and countless hours since. This hardly seems like 'publishing Snowden's statements at face value'. Given the origin of the materials Snowden leaked, much of what he says isn't even a matter of opinion, but a matter of provable fact.
To complain that Greenwald has subsequently become an advocate for Snowden is to ignore the rest of the political landscape and both paid and informal advocacy occurring on all sides. The President of the United States has a Press Secretary, who advocates for and articulates White House positions to the press. Corporations have lobbyists, who advocate for and articulate the positions of big business, to politicians. Politicians have public relation teams, who advocate for and advise them.
Until the launch of the Courage Foundation, whistle-blowers really had very little direct advocacy support. There was some measure of legal support, and limited if any direct governmental support. What is so offensive about journalists who advocate for the weak against the strong? I doubt it's offensive at all, but rather the impact they are having is growing to be so huge that it is minimising the effectiveness of the disinformation campaigns run by their opponents.
No one, least of all Snowden himself, could have imagined the international sensation he would grow to become. All and sundry expected his fate to be much different. That the advocacy work undertaken on his behalf by his supporters has been achieving spectacular results seems to have provoked some professional jealousy from a political quarter who are used to controlling the media narratives themselves – a quarter that is being displaced by the rising groundswell of public opinion set against them.
The keystone of journalism is access. Access is forming and maintaining a close connection to a source or subject. Those who have access are fundamental to shaping the public narrative. For a mainstream political columnist to suggest this is an unusual arrangement is rather precious. Who does Michael Cohen think should be shaping the narrative? People who don't have access or who have an alternate agenda? Like Snowden's opponents? Or who have no moral investment, no stake in the outcome and no clue? Like these guys?
Cohen must know all about access. His timeline is full of Jeb Bush this, Hilary Clinton that. Campaign agendas are all about access. From fundraising to policy announcements to interviews. As a columnist for the Boston Globe, World Politics Review and the London Observer as well as an avid follower of mainstream political campaigns, surely Cohen understands full well the necessity, import and impact of access.
All media eats at Snowden's table, regardless of whether they are pro-Snowden or anti-Snowden. The entire international media has been profiting off him for the last two years. They ALL have a financial stake in him, one way or the other. He has been the single largest recurring news story in memory, both for organisations and freelancers.
To that end, why should anyone for whom Snowden represents a meal ticket be trusted?
Beneficiaries can be divided into three groups:
* Those who take risks to support Snowden against the full weight of the state and get paid for it
* Those who take risks to support Snowden against the full weight of the state and don't get paid for it
* Those who kick the shit out of Snowden and get paid for it, while getting kudos (if not additional funding) from the security state for doing so.
No points for guessing which group is the most heavily populated by the affluent, predominantly white cis male, dinosaurs of conventional media.
There is no greater irony than when those who would proclaim themselves the least inclined to put stock in conspiracy theories, begin inventing their own. At this point, Cohen launches headlong into supposition and innuendo.
Rather than playing Pin The Tail On Edward Snowden, Cohen could remove his blindfold with some simple research – reading Greenwald's 'No Place To Hide' would be a great start, as would watching Sarah Harrison and Julian Assange's interviews about Snowden's transition from Hong Kong to Russia.
In doing so he would realise that Snowden didn't choose to be exiled in Russia, but was stranded there by the American government when it revoked his passport, presumably for exactly this reason – leaving him in Russia bereft of travel documentation created an easy opportunity to smear him as somehow being improperly affiliated with the Russians. And smear him they have, as Julian Assange explains clearly in this interview with Democracy Now. Julian's answer is prefaced by a clip of Hillary Clinton leveling precisely the same accusation as Michael Cohen.
Mr. Snowden took all this material, he fled to Hong Kong, he spent time with the Russians in their consulate, uh, and then he went to Moscow seeking the protection of Vladimir Putin — Hillary Clinton
Julian Assange responds:
This is sadly typical of Hillary Clinton… not even the National Security Agency accuses [Snowden] of working with the Russians. In fact, the NSA, formally in its investigation, has said that they don't think he was working with the Russians, at least not before he left the agency. Hillary Clinton, however, tries to reshape the chronology in order to smear Edward Snowden with being a Russian spy. The actual chronology is that Edward Snowden went to Hong Kong, he then saw that the situation was very difficult, reached out to us for help, and we were intimately involved from that point on, so I know precisely myself and our staff know, what happened. We submitted 20 asylum applications on behalf of Edward Snowden, to a range of different countries… it was [Snowden's] intent to go to Latin America… Venezuela, Nicaragua, Ecuador was also looking favourable and Bolivia offered him asylum. En route to Latin America the U.S. State Department canceled his passport, leaving him marooned in Russia, unable to catch his next flight. Which had already been booked from the very beginning. His whole path had been booked while he was in Hong Kong.
Hillary says that he went to the Russian consulate in Hong Kong – I don't know about that but I'm sure that, perhaps he was looking at all different kinds of asylum options and that would have made perfect sense for anyone to do that in such a severe situation.
Hillary Clinton was of course, Secretary of State from January 2009 until February 2013, with her tenure ending just a few short months before the State Department would cancel Snowden's passport while he attempted to transit Russia.
And that is of course, the same State Department who won't be launching an internal investigation into Hillary Clinton's missing emails.
Cohen's "how long is a piece of string" argument is best answered by a commenter on the thread:
No one can prove anything in the negative. Proof is supposed to require evidence and evidence can't be non-existent or it wouldn't be evidence at all. What questions like these are really intended to do is to obfuscate, distract and smear. They are completely unbecoming.
As with much of Cohen's commentary, he fails to back up his accusations with references so this point has been particularly difficult to research. Many hours of reading South China Morning Post's Snowden archive later, and the only 'operational info' I've been able to establish that Snowden discussed with them, was wholesale spying on Chinese university students and on the SMS messages of the general population. Unless he is referring to the mention of mass surveillance being undertaken at-cable, which is a worldwide phenomenon that has been reported consistently around the globe, in many regions..
Indeed, the SCMP revelations fit perfectly with the ongoing theme of Snowden's leaks; where the public of various countries (most of the countries in the world in fact) are spied on in by the U.S. in a wholesale fashion, without warrants or individual suspicion to justify the targeting.
Snowden's releases have not been about military versus military – but military versus civilians: mass surveillance. To expect him to exclude Chinese civilians, or Russian civilians, or any other, just because the names of those countries are incendiary to the U.S. political mainstream, would be to expect him to discriminate on the basis of nationality, the way his government does. Yet Snowden has very much proved to be a global citizen, and clearly does not adhere to the inherently unjust principle of 'American exceptionalism'. This does not detract from, but enhances his efficacy in the eyes of the global public.
Funnily enough, even the South China Morning Post has repeated this mainstream echo-chamber claim that Snowden somehow reversed his position about whether he had read the documents he leaked, during his interview with Last Week Tonight. Business Insider also claimed that host John Oliver had caught Snowden in a 'lie'. Yet that itself is a lie, because the wording used by the echo chamber was never Snowden's wording at all and the heavy editing in the segment makes it clear that whatever his real answers were, they lay on the cutting room floor.
Transcription from the relevant section of the John Oliver interview:
JO: How many of those documents have you actually read?
ES: I've evaluated all of the documents that are in the archive.
JO: You've read every single one?
ES: <edit>Well, I do understand what I turned over.
JO: <edit>There's a difference between understanding what's in the documents and reading what's in the documents.
ES: <edit>I recognise the concern
JO: Right cos when you're handing over thousands of NSA documents the last thing you want to do is read them.
ES: I think it's fair to be concerned about, did this person do enough, were they careful enough, were they thorough
JO: Especially when you're handling material like we know you were handling
ES: Well, in my defense, I'm not handling anything anymore, that's been passed to the journalists and they're using extraordinary security measures to make sure this is reported in the most responsible way.
Oliver uses the word 'read'. Snowden immediately qualifies it with the word 'evaluated'. The same word he had used all along. Yet in this ridiculous Business Insider article the onus is again flipped back to the word 'read' and a hyper-inflammatory tweet is included, to raise the drama a notch:
The outright accusation that Snowden is lying is way beyond the pale. It is clear that by his continuing use of the word 'evaluate' that Snowden assessed (whether by computer script or manually) the content of the documents, likely considering their provenance, affiliation, meta-data or otherwise and then entrusted the documents to the journalists, instructing them to only publish what is in the public interest.
To try to split hairs by suggesting he should have read every single word on every single page prior to leaking it is nonsense and in the case of the "many tens of thousands of documents" Greenwald describes having received, outright impossible.
Were Last Week Tonight's editing not so appallingly obvious and heavy-handed, the misconception that Snowden lied may not be so easily clung to by his detractors and the content of his full answers could be known. However, the short, snappy style of the interviewer (which I wholly accept is for comedic effect) was clearly carried over to the editing of Snowden's responses, to his detriment.
Having spent upwards of 15 hours researching this article and hundreds upon hundreds more studying and writing about Snowden's releases "on my own", I'm pretty sure I qualify. As with many others who are intrigued by the revelations, I have turned every possibility in my mind over, and over again, while reading, watching and analysing everything that is available in the public sphere.
Ultimately, what convinces me of Snowden's authenticity is not his supporters but his detractors. They run the exact same establishment 'deny, degrade, distract, disrupt, destroy' playbook against him that his revelations showed are being used against every other significant activist or political opponent in the Five Eyes. This in itself demonstrates how much of a threat he is perceived to be. The voraciousness with which he is attacked by sock puppet accounts and the uniformity of the disparagements they make about him is telling, as is the cast of characters trotted out to discredit him. Cheney. Clinton. Hayden. Current and past directors of this, that and the other agency including proponents of the Iraq war; the disinformation dinosaurs. As usual, the issues are interlinked. The arbiters of American exceptionalism and international economic exploitation detest Snowden and everything he stands for, which, when assessing his credibility, weighs heavily in his favour.
Even if they were trying to protect Snowden and/or their images – how is this any different to the journalists who try to shield the U.S. government from scrutiny, and thus protect their own images? I'll tell you how – because they are protecting a vulnerable whistle-blower in an unprecedented situation, rather than protecting the behemoth, colossal machine of war, economic bullying and austerity, racism, colonisation and Empire of the U.S. Government and the world is a better place for it. Those who get paid defending empire are hypocrites when finger-pointing at those who get paid to confront it.
There is a vast difference. Journalists who protect vulnerable sources, at great personal risk, cannot be equated with journalists who seek to protect their own government and in doing so uphold cushy, privileged lifestyles and self-justify their positions.
No. What is an incredible insult to a journalist is having a pro-government shill boast that they would like to write a defense of the journalist being droned to death. Or to have a journalist write an article about all the ways in which their pro-government military sources would like to murder a whistle-blower.
If being called a stenographer hurts your feelings, perhaps it is time to walk a mile in a whistleblower's shoes before casting judgement.
Finally, one more fallacious argument amplified by Cohen:
Anonymity is not the problem. The motivation for acquiring the anonymity and the institution benefiting from it is the problem, alongside the willingness of the media outlet to provide it when it is aware that the source has a personal interest in propagating opinions which are of direct benefit to their employers; sources for which there is a clear financial and social gain.
Which is diametrically opposed to the motivations of Edward Snowden, as evidenced in the very same John Oliver interview.
JO: So, did you do this to solve a problem?
ES: I did this to give the American people the chance to decide for themselves, the type of Government that they want to have. That is a conversation that I think the American people deserve to decide.
JO: There is no doubt it is a critical conversation…
…and it's one that without Edward Snowden, we may never have had.

Gustav Kolb (* 4. Dezember 1870 in Ansbach; † 20. März 1938 in Starnberg) war ein deutscher Psychiater, der mit seiner "offenen (Irren-)fürsorge" in die Geschichte der Psychiatrie einging.

Leben
Kolb studierte Medizin an der Universität Erlangen und war seit 1895 approbierter Arzt. Danach war er an der Heil- und Pflegeanstalt Bayreuth tätig. Kolb sah die Notwendigkeit, die überfüllten geschlossenen "Bewahr-" Anstalten zu öffnen, in denen nach der Aufnahme eines Patienten bisher kaum mehr dessen Entlassung erwogen wurde. Er entwickelte hierfür während seiner Tätigkeit als Anstaltsdirektor in Kutzenberg (1905–1911) und Erlangen (1911–1934) ein System, das die Aufnahme und die Entlassung erleichterte und Arbeits- und Beschäftigungsmöglichkeiten bot. "Irrenschutzgerichte" sollten die Anstaltsbetriebe kontrollieren. Mit Kinderabteilungen, Trinkerheilstätten und Altenheimen war auf die unterschiedlichen Bedürfnisse der Patienten einzugehen.

Trotz seiner konservativen Grundhaltung sah Kolb in den neuen politischen Bedingungen nach dem Ersten Weltkrieg eine günstige Gelegenheit, die Anstaltspsychiatrie in Richtung psychosozialer Versorgung zu verändern. Er ging 1919 an die Öffentlichkeit und forderte, sein Konzept einer gemeindenahen Psychiatrie in die Tat umzusetzen. Als wichtigste Maßnahme gegen die Überfüllung der Anstalten galt die Organisation von Fürsorgemaßnahmen außerhalb der Anstalt. Ein wesentlicher Bestandteil war dabei die Erfassung und Beobachtung der aus den Anstalten entlassenen Patienten und deren berufliche und soziale Wiedereingliederung.

Die Nationalsozialisten erkannten später diesen Teil des Kolb'schen Systems als ideales Werkzeug für ihre Gesundheits- und Rassenideologie und missbrauchten die Erfassungs- und Kontrollmechanismen für ihre Euthanasieprojekte.

Trotz Aufforderung des Regierungspräsidenten trat er im Mai 1933 nicht der NSDAP bei und wurde 1934 vorzeitig von seinem Direktorenposten in Erlangen entbunden.

Das auch im Ausland vielbeachtete System der offenen Fürsorge wurde von fast allen deutschen Kliniken übernommen.

Home Alone Director
Q: What do you get when you name a kid after a famous Italian explorer and then send him to NYU film school?
A: Chris Columbus—who, unlike the real Columbus, didn't kill anybody or infect any continents with diseases. The similarities end with the names.
Instead of being credited with discovering America (even though Vikings were the first Europeans to arrive), Chris Columbus did something equally important: he directed Home Alone, Home Alone 2: Lost in New York, Mrs. Doubtfire, the first two Harry Potter movies, and wrote Gremlins and The Goonies.
Like John Hughes, this guy can pull classic family-friendly entertainment out of thin air, like a magician conjuring up a rabbit. They're also both in touch with their inner child—who is apparently an extremely rich, genius kid.
Like Hughes, Chris Columbus is an expert entertainer: both a craftsman and a salesman. (That's why they got him to direct those Harry Potter movies.) But again, like Hughes, we can see real themes emerge in his work. He's not just spooning out schlock.
Consider two of his mega hits. What, after all, do Gremlins and Home Alone have in common—aside from the first being written by Columbus, and the second directed by him? Yup: they're both about the forces of anarchy and darkness attempting to disrupt Christmas.
In Gremlins, those forces are represented by—you got it—gremlins. These creatures perform mischief that rapidly accelerates into murder, threatening the festive atmosphere of the holidays. As everyone knows, Christmas is about having political arguments with relatives, not killing people. The gremlins must be defeated...
In Home Alone, those same forces of societal decay are represented by two burglars, men who attack the comfortable material basis of life in the plush upper class and upper-middle-class suburbs of Chicago. But Kevin brings the pain, and they lose.
See? These two movies are peas in the same red-and-green-striped pod.
Columbus commented on their shared Christmas themes, saying:
"I set Gremlins, which is a very dark story, against the bright cheery time of Christmas, and I thought it was a good contrast. Christmas is a time when people are at their happiest or at their most emotionally low place in their lives, and I thought that this is a great backdrop for a kid who's left home alone on Christmas. I think what really completely convinced me I had to do the movie was the scene in the church with the old man and Kevin. I just thought that was a beautifully written scene, and that scene on film is exactly as John wrote it. I mean, we didn't change a word of that scene." (Source)
In the same interview with Entertainment Weekly, Columbus explains that he added certain touches to the movie that weren't in Hughes script—like the fact that Kevin looks out the window at the end and actually sees Marley reuniting with his family.
Also, he allowed John Candy to do freewheeling improvisations. As Gus Polinski, Candy made up the speech about accidentally abandoning his kid at a funeral parlor. According to Columbus, "That just came out of nowhere." (Source)
Columbus' work also has a lot to do with the resourcefulness of young people in staving off villains, as evidenced by the Home Alone movies but also his other films. In Goonies, a group of kids foil a family of criminals in order to find One Eyed Willy's treasure (we see absolutely nothing hilarious about this legendary pirate's name), and the Harry Potter movies pit kids against the monolithic evil presented by Lord Voldemort.
Children (or teenagers) generally win out and preserve the stability of their world, whether saving their house from golf course developers in Goonies, or protecting Hogwarts from the Dark Arts.

Stupid Evil Privacy Policy
It's a special kind of asshole who takes up two handicapped parking spaces…
Posted on 27 July, 2011 by Les
Constable and noted asshat, Joseph Mora.
… when he's not handicapped himself and then when he's confronted by an actual handicapped person he flashes a fake badge and assaults the poor guy. The cherry on top of this pile of shit? When said asshole is a constable and a member of the local planning board.
Meet just such an asshole: Jospeh Mora of Fairhaven, Massachusetts.
According to police, the man tried to park his car in one of the handicapped spaces at the Seaport Inn and Marina on Friday night and noticed that Morra's car was taking up two handicapped parking spaces.
Police said Morra's car didn't have a handicapped license plate or a visible placard.
Police said the man began taking pictures of Morra's car with his cell phone.
According to police, the man said Morra displayed a badge to him and ordered him off the property while uttering expletives.
The man told police that Morra poked him in the chest and sternum several times and then shoved him, nearly knocking him to the ground.
Mora's been charged with assault and battery on a disabled person, intimidation of a witness, impersonating a police officer and malicious destruction of property valued at over $250 for breaking the disabled man's cellphone. Also, of being a humongous prick.
I could kind of understand if he was just going to be parked for a couple of minutes and he took up one handicapped spot to do it, but this is going beyond inconsiderate to the land of complete asshattery. Seriously, walk the extra 20 feet or so and stop being such a dickhead.

Can Psychology Save Lives In The Addiction Crisis?
Aurora Recovery Centre/Aurora Recovery Centre News/Can Psychology Save Lives In The Addiction Crisis?
Psychology and neuroscience seem to be the answer to everything today. In a world which is rapidly making less sense, people eagerly turn to a science which does. Psychology helps to explain why humans do what they do, how they act the way they act, and beyond. Addiction treatment and psychology go hand in hand. Much of treatment involves psychotherapy, behavioral modification, and other practices which are rooted in psychology. Getting a deeper understanding for how the mind relates to, is affected by, and acts according to addiction is for many often the answer to being freed from it.
One psychologist recently suggested using an older but famous example of psychology to understand overdoses. Pavlov was a psychologist famous for his experiments with dogs. He trained dogs to be conditioned to fight their desires and impulses and wait for permission. Many have considered using pavlovian style techniques for addiction treatment. However, Pavlov's use of electrical shock is controversial for humans. Some of Pavlov's experiential work can explain why some people overdose in some situations more than others. According to the Boston Globe, "overdoses appear to be the result of taking the drug in a novel setting (for example in a public restroom vs. at home.) When users take drugs in places where they have previously done so, the perception of familiarity triggers a greater physiological tolerance response." As a result, there may be a temptation to use a larger amount of drugs, which can lead to overdose.
This is just one example of how taking psychology into consideration can help understand addiction and prevent overdose. Other studies using rats, like Rat Park have suggested that even when drugs are readily available, having a happy environment full of social interaction is preferable. The experiment concluded the disconnection and isolation are a greater contributor to addiction and that social connection is the solution.
Aurora Recovery Centre is dedicated to lighting the way for addicts and alcoholics seeking recovery. Our treatment programs are available for substance use disorders, psychological disorders, and other co-occurring issues. From detox to sober living, Aurora provides a continuum of care to ensure long term sobriety. For more information, call us today at 844-515-STOP.

FBD Insurance County Championships
Last weekend was a busy one on the football front with the staging of the Quarter Finals of the senior and intermediate championships as well as in the Tom Cusack Cup.
At senior level three of the four games were played on Saturday, in Cashel the first game of a double header saw football king pins Clonmel Commercials ease their way in to the semi finals with a comfortable 0-21 to 1-02 win over Arravale Rovers. In the second game the 2021 county champions Loughmore Castleiney faced familiar opposition in Kilsheelan Kilcash in a game that was very well contested from start to finish, a John Ryan goal for the mid men proving to be the difference as Loughmore Castleiney won by 1-10 to 0-11. The third game on Saturday was played in Holycross and was part one of what will be a two part battle between JK Brackens and Upperchurch Drombane, who will also meet next weekend in the hurling Quarter Finals. The favourites tag for this game was firmly on the shoulders of the Templemore side, but Upperchurch Drombane clearly did not read the script as they took the game to JK Brackens right from the start and once they took the lead they never relinquished it, holding out to win by 1-11 to 0-10 and qualify for the senior football semi finals for the first time in their history.

Global Coronavirus Cases Hit 40M
October 20, 2020 admin National 0
By WI Web Staff – The number of reported global coronavirus cases hit 40 million Monday, as infections trend upward in Europe and the U.S.
As of Monday afternoon, 40,246,655 coronavirus cases and 1,115,985 related deaths have been reported worldwide, according to a Johns Hopkins University tracker. The U.S. leads the world in both categories with roughly 8.2 million cases and 220,000 deaths.
European governments are trying to control a surge of COVID-19 cases by reintroducing some strict measures in the public realm and hospitality sector including the closing or limiting the opening of pubs, bars and restaurants, restricting social gatherings and implementing curfews like those in place in some French cities such as Paris, CNBC reported.
When adjusted for population, the number of new COVID-19 infections in Europe has exceeded the U.S., with the continent reporting 187 new coronavirus cases per million people, based on the seven-day average, compared to the U.S. rate of 162, CNBC reported.

Black Health Matters: Addressing Disparities


Asheville's interim city manager will update the city council on the recommended reforms Tuesday.
ASHEVILLE - The city's top administrator said police reforms are happening following the beating of a black pedestrian that triggered widespread outrage and led to the ouster of the city manager.
Interim City Manager Cathy Ball is set to update the City Council Tuesday on the reforms recommended last month by 21CP Solutions, a Chicago consulting group that includes appointees to President Barack Obama's 21st Century Policing Task Force.
The consultants called for a peer intervention program to train Asheville Police Department officers to stop incidents involving other police and a notification system so top city officials are made aware of events such as the Aug. 24 beating of Johnnie Rush by a white officer, Christopher Hickman.
In a report released to the council before Tuesday's meeting, Ball said those changes were underway.
In a change that has already been made, the threshold has been lowered for monitoring officers exhibiting what is deemed problem behavior, she said.
performance related problems exhibited by individual employees."
The new approach uses more systematic reviews of body-worn officer cameras and involves deputy police chiefs and the chief in the intervention.
Officers have been reminded when to give aid after using force. That means an ambulance is called if the person subject to the force complains of injury. Rush, who was bleeding and complaining of pain, was taken to the hospital only after he complained multiple times.
Work is underway to improve responses to news of police-involved incidents, including the creation of a crisis communication program. It took more than 12 hours for a statement from a city official after the Feb. 28 publication by the Citizen Times of police body cam footage showing the beating.
The Field Officer Training program has been revised. Hickman was a FTO at the time of the beating and had a trainee with him.
Not all council members were satisfied with the consultants' work.
Sheneika Smith, one of two African Americans on the council and a member of the council's Public Safety Committee, criticized the report and its recommendations, saying consultants should have spoken with local civil rights activists and that some might see the results as the "police policing the police."
Smith could not be reached for comment Monday afternoon. Public Safety Chairman Brian Haynes declined to comment.
Mayor Esther Manheimer has said the report was one of several steps the city was taking after the beating.

The Building Blocks of Brand Success
Why did you go into business? What sets you apart from your competitors? What motivates you to deliver goods and/or services to your customers everyday? What is your brand promise? Answer these questions and then ask yourself one more: Does my brand reflect it?
Your brand differentiates you from your competitors, reinforces positioning, creates engagement with your target market, and reflects the good will of your company and it's identity.
Brand identity weaves its way through all aspects of your company, from your logo and tagline to public relations and marketing, advertising, community involvement, and more.
The same is true for cities, states, and organizations. For example, do you know what you get when you Explore Minnesota? What about visiting Historic Stillwater, MN?
The City of Stillwater has done a nice job of branding themselves as a historic destination, adorned with good restaurants, shopping and river tours.
In order to brand a city, everyone from city officials to business owners and residents have to buy into it, support it and be proud of it. With buy-in and engagement from the stakeholders through the brand process, the community brand promise becomes real, authentic and highly visible.
Now, let's look at some of the top US business brands. According to a recent article in Business Insider Magazine, these are the 10 Best Brands in America. Do you know why?
1-2: Coca-Cola and Pepsi – tied for 1st Place
3. Hershey's
4. Harley-Davidson
5. Bayer
6. Johnson and Johnson
7. Kellogg's
8. Campbell's

These brands are ranked at the tope for reputation, management and investment potential. They are long-lasting brands because they have passed the test of time. They have grown and evolved with their target market, offering new products and services in a changing environment.
Latin American brands are also taking top spots in the US marketplace. Do you like Corona? Well, a lot of people do, making it the most valuable Latin American brand!
Corona increased their brand value in the US by 29% in the last year and grew to $6.6 billion.
On the other end of the spectrum, we find a list of the Top 10 Least Respected Brands in America, according to Bloomberg Businessweek
1. Delta Airlines
2. Marlboro
3. H&R Block
4. Denny's
5. Big Lots
6. Best Buy
7. JCP – JC Penney

10. Footlocker
Why are they the worst? These companies have gone through a lot of change and as a result, they haven't delivered on their brand promise. Good marketing means nothing, if a company doesn't follow through in customer satisfaction.
Learn from their mistakes. What is your brand promise and how are you building it within the marketplace?

Speechmatics deliver French language capability from the top of Mont Ventoux during the Tour de France
/ News / Speechmatics deliver French language capability from the top of Mont Ventoux during the Tour de France
To coincide with the world's greatest cycle race, Speechmatics today announced the immediate availability of French to our rapidly expanding peloton of language capability.
Ricardo Herreros-Symons, Sales Director at Speechmatics, willingly interrupted his holiday to help us launch French from the top of Mont Ventoux, one of the high-points of the Tour de France, quite literally. "The pace at which Speechmatics is delivering new features, languages and performance improvements are nothing short of breath-taking. Our Auto-Auto framework is proving yet again that we are ahead of the pack in innovation."
And on France's national day, Bastille Day, we wish to express our gratitude and admiration to our French colleagues, Benoit and Remi, both of whom are brilliant, committed and much loved core members of our truly international company. Liberté, égalité, fraternité
