The Western Australian Joint Select Committee of the Legislative Assembly and Legislative Council has reportedly received more than 680 submissions.
President of Dying With Dignity WA, Murray Hindle (pictured), said "The parliamentary inquiry here has the great advantage of all the data that was gathered in Victoria, both for and against".
Premier Mark McGowan said he expects the committee's report in mid-2018 and that voluntary assisted dying in WA could come down to a conscience vote by elected MPs during 2018. In the wake of the successful passage of the Victorian voluntary assisted dying law, Mr McGowan said that it could serve as a 'worthy template' for Western Australia.
A special Roy Morgan Snap SMS Survey was conducted on 2 November 2017 with a representative cross-section of 1,386 adult Australians. Respondents were asked: "If a hopelessly ill patient with no chance of recovering asks for a lethal dose, should a doctor be allowed to give a lethal dose, or not?" The result was 85% support for this proposition, with a clear majority in all six states. The state with the largest support is Western Australia, in which 88% of respondents support allowing doctors to 'give a lethal dose'.

Bryony Shaw RS:X Windsurfing Champion
Bryony Shaw is a first-class windsurfer who won a bronze medal for Great Britain in the 2008 Olympics. She is currently the World No. 1 female RS:X windsurfer. What makes her exceptional is her dedication to winning with much preparation, including 'off-piste' sailing at secret locations, such as out-of-the-way places on the west coast of Ireland. The freedom she gets from this experience of being in tune with the wind and waves adds a zest to her life beyond competing against her rivals.
I find this approach refreshing when I consider the emphasis that is given to racing by official bodies such as the Royal Yachting Association and the International Sailing Federation. They have an almost myopic focus on racing, and pay lip service to cruising with little active promotion, and as for recreational day sailing little is said.
I know of no one apart from Tim Batstone who has done coastal cruising on a board. No doubt there are others. The practicalities of this sort of minimal cruising clearly limits what can be done, but with the right backup and support it is feasible, as Tim makes plain in his book, 'Round Britain Windsurf: 1800 miles on a 12ft board'.

New York Appellate Court Affirms Denial of New Trial When Defendant Was Wearing Prison Clothes During Jury Selection
October 8, 2017 | Tilem & Associates
Jury selection is one of the most important aspects of any case. At Tilem Law Offices, our seasoned New York gun crime lawyers have handled countless voir dire selection processes and understand just what it takes to make sure that you receive a fair jury. As a recent appellate opinion indicates, even the clothes you are wearing during jury selection may have an impact on your legal rights.
In the case, the defendant was arrested while entering a vehicle that was reported stolen at gunpoint nearly two weeks before. The defendant was charged with both first-degree and second-degree robbery. Before the jury selection phase of the trial, the defendant noted that he was not wearing his own clothing and that he was not provided with a chance to contact his family. The defendant requested an adjournment, which was granted. The judge granted the adjournment to allow the defendant a chance to obtain plain clothes, as opposed to the orange correctional facilities jumpsuit that he was wearing. After the adjournment, the defendant returned wearing a plain black top but still wearing orange correctional facility-issued sweatpants. Since the defendant was seated at the end of a long table, and since the judge believed that the jury would not be able to see the defendant's sweatpants, the judge denied the defendant's request to postpone jury selection until he could obtain plain clothes.
The prospective jurors were asked whether they noticed anything about the defendant. One indicated noticing that the defendant was in a wheelchair, which the parties explained was irrelevant to the case. Six jury members were selected that day. On the next day, the defendant was wearing a suit, and the jury selection process continued. Testimony from the victim and the arresting officer was provided, and the jury returned a verdict convicting the defendant of both counts of robbery.
The defendant appealed the conviction, and the Appellate Division affirmed, finding that the defendant's correctional pants did not have an impact on his right to obtain a fair trial, especially considering that the defendant was only wearing the pants for half of the first day of jury selection. The defendant appealed again.
On review, the appellate court concluded that the pants did not deprive the defendant of a fair trial. The court cited earlier case precedent holding that to require a defendant to appear before the jury in correctional attire results in a denial of the right of defendants to appear with dignity, self-respect, and the appearance of a free and innocent person. Applied to the present case, however, the court ruled that since there was no evidence in the record indicating that the jury could see the defendant's prison-issued clothing, there was no impact on his right to a fair trial. Accordingly, the appellate court upheld the lower court's ruling and denied the defendant's request for a new trial.
If you are facing a criminal investigation, or if you are a defendant in a criminal matter, it is imperative that you consult with a dedicated gun crime lawyer as soon as possible. Our seasoned team of legal professionals will ensure that you assert your right to a fair trial at every step and help you with protecting your rights. It may be tempting to speak to the authorities in the hope of clearing your name, but this can backfire and result in irreversible damage to your case. We offer a free consultation to help you learn about your legal rights, so contact us now at 1-877-377-8666 or contact us online.

The Chandi Group began, like any good restaurant story, as a fifteen year-old Sonu worked the line during the Friday night dinner rush. Three years later, the Chandi brothers helped their father open up his own restaurant. There they cut their teeth negotiating leases, managing vendors, building a team, gaining the experience, and growing the excitement that would cement their decision to own their own hospitality group.
In 2007, the Chandi Group purchased their first restaurant, a Mountain Mike's Pizza in Rohnert Park. Still in college and with little guidance from the corporate offices, they learned their lessons – from scheduling to handling to every other aspect of owning a franchise – the hard way. And, the right way. Since then, they've become the Northern California Mountain Mike's Development Agent, opening six new locations, with one on the way, and piloting the Mountain Mike's Tavern concept, which brought a full bar experience into the family friendly atmosphere.
Along the way, Ren joined the team, and family, helping guide them as they branched out into independent restaurants. Together, they took over Stout Brothers Irish Pub and Restaurant two days before St. Patrick's Day in 2013. The success of Stout's and the vibrancy of downtown Santa Rosa propelled them to launch three more restaurants, Bibi's Burger Bar, Bollywood Bar and Clay Oven, and Beer Baron. To date, Sonu has also opened thirteen Mountain Mike's Pizza locations throughout the North Bay.
Though it all, the Chandi Group has been guided by their deep-rooted commitment to their community, to their work, integrity, and their philosophy of continuous improvement. At every step, they've challenged themselves to learn and grow, and strive to always be better.

Early adventures to legendary vineyards and wineries around the world with his father, photographer Andy Katz, rooted Jesse in a passion for place and respect for creative crafts. Jesse is inspired by the relationship of unpredictable nature in the vineyard, precise science in the winery, and a craft millennia in the making. His winemaking centers on selecting unique sites, then pairing diverse farming and winemaking techniques to extract the deepest expression of each vineyard.
Today, Katz creates terroir driven wines for his brands: Aperture Cellars,Devil Proof Vineyards. Aperture, a collaborative project with his father, focuses on Bordeaux varietals and demonstrates an expression of art both inside the bottle and out. Devil Proof Vineyards, Jesse's flagship wine, is a single vineyard, dry farmed 100% Malbec, whose first release received the highest rating of any Malbec from California from both Robert Parker, Jr. and Wine Spectator, and was named "Cult Winery" of the year. Jesse's new winery and vineyards slated to open in 2019 will showcase sustainable wine growing and production, while expanding capacity.
In 2010, Katz was the youngest-hired head winemaker in the US at Lancaster Estate, where he brought to bear his handcrafted style of terroir driven winemaking and established their Roth Estate brand. During his five-year tenure, he orchestrated the building of the new Roth winery, production facility, and tasting room on Chalk Hill Road, grew the Roth line over 800% and received 90+ scores on every wine scored by Robert Parker, Jr and his wine was designated as Top 100 Wines by Wine Spectator. During this time, he also pivoted farming and winery practices, making both certified sustainable. His experience spans 15 harvests at wineries like Pétrus and includes time on the winemaking teams at Screaming Eagle Winery, Robert Foley Winery, and Viña Cobos and Bodega Noemia in Argentina.
Jesse has been named 40 Under 40 Tastemaker by Wine Enthusiast and was the first winemaker on the Forbes 30 Under 30. Aperture Cellars was recently selected as a Rising Star by Wine Spectator and a bottle of his 2015 The Setting Wines just became the most expensive single bottle of wine ever sold, earning $350,000 at Emeril Lagasse's annual charity wine auction. Jesse puts his abilities to work raising funds for good causes, such as Becoming Independent, Navy Seals Foundation, United Way and Roots of Peace whose "Mines to Vines" program works to restore economic stability to war stricken areas of the world through agriculture. He also produces custom wines for athletes and celebrities like Tony Hawk, Superbowl MVP Von Miller, Shep Gordon, as well as Justin Timberlake and Jessica Biel's wedding wine.

PCOS and Mental Health
How Polycystic Ovary Syndrome Can Impact Your Mental Health
Polycystic ovary syndrome, or PCOS, is a chronic health condition characterized by hormonal imbalance in people with ovaries. It can also, but not always, include cysts on the ovaries, and often negatively impacts fertility. This condition affects approximately 1 in 10 people with ovaries of reproductive age. The symptoms of PCOS can have negative effects on mental health, including depression, anxiety, grief, and body image issues. Knowing the connection between PCOS and mental health issues and how to seek help for them can make living with this condition much more manageable from a mental health perspective.
PCOS can present differently from person to person. The hormone imbalance, in which higher levels of androgens are present, can lead to a host of symptoms, including:
Irregular or absent menstrual cycles
Irregular bleeding or spotting
Difficulty losing weight
Hair loss from head
Excess hair growth on face, neck, and body (also known as hirsutism)
Skin tag growth
PCOS is also linked with other health conditions, including diabetes, ovarian cancer, sleep apnea, fatty liver disease, and high blood pressure. Getting diagnosed with PCOS involves speaking to your doctor about your symptoms, getting blood tests, and potentially ultrasounds to check your uterus, cervix, ovaries, and fallopian tubes. In addition to these physical symptoms, there is also a connection between PCOS and mental health conditions.
PCOS can affect your mental health for a number of reasons. First, many people experience difficulty receiving a PCOS diagnosis from a doctor, and for some it takes many years. Part of that difficulty stems from a common symptom of PCOS: weight gain. The unfortunate truth is that many doctors are not educated about the weight gain and subsequent insulin resistance and difficulty losing weight that are caused by PCOS, and will tell patients to simply "lose the weight" to get better without truly understanding how difficult that can be. (It is important to note that there is a lean-type PCOS that affects people who are "normal" weight according to doctors, though those cases seem to be the minority.) Feeling unheard by a doctor and left with unexplained unpleasant symptoms can lead to frustration, fear, depression, and anxiety. A therapist can help you with this by discussing how to advocate for yourself through assertive communication, resource gathering, and setting boundaries, and can also help you talk through your negative feelings around this issue.
Body image issues are also a common link between PCOS and mental health difficulties. Many symptoms of PCOS have an effect on one's outer appearance, including weight gain, acne, hair loss from the head, hirsutism, skin tag growth, etc. There is also a societal stigma around being "overweight" that contributes to feeling negatively about a body that is not ideal according to mass media. Therapists help with body image issues by guiding you to challenge societal ideals and the negative messages you (and others) tell yourself about your body, finding things you love about what your body can do, and facilitating growth of self-confidence.
Often, PCOS leads to increased cortisol levels in the body. Cortisol is your body's stress hormone, usually activated during those intense fight-or-flight moments. While it is good in those situations, too much cortisol can be associated with health conditions both mental and physical. Having an excess of cortisol makes your body think that you are constantly in danger, which leads to feelings of anxiety. Therapists are armed with all sorts of anxiety reduction techniques, including meditation, mindfulness, and other cognitive-behavioral strategies that help you feel more relaxed - which may actually help you lower your cortisol levels.
One significant effect of PCOS is that it can negatively impact fertility. Many people with PCOS find it difficult to conceive, and they are more likely to experience miscarriage than people without PCOS. This sort of loss can come with tremendous amounts of pain, anger, and grief. Therapists can help you through this grieving process by teaching you how to be gentle with and take care of yourself while remembering and honoring whom or whatever you have lost.
These are just a few of the connections between PCOS and mental health issues, but there may be many more; this condition is currently under-researched despite being quite common throughout the world. While there is no cure for PCOS, there are several options to treat symptoms, including medication, supplements, diet and lifestyle changes, hair removal, fertility treatments, and naturopathic strategies such as acupuncture and herbal medicine. You may want to speak with a trusted healthcare provider to discuss which treatments are right for you.

Q: How can I bring STAG back if I have 100% completion? There's a couple of the Saintsbook challenges that require you to have STAG forces available to kill.  After you complete the game, however, the STAG forces are nowhere to be found.  I believe that you can fight a few more STAG forces if you replay the final mission, but I think my save is glitched, so that's not an option.
Is there any way post-game completion to bring STAG back?  I miss their much nicer tanks and VTOLs for hijacking :(

A: There is, but it depends on the progress you've made on Vehicle Thefts. If you haven't yet stolen the VTOL Condor for BJ Barnes, start that activity. That should spawn STAG troops in the park around the VTOLs that will magically appear there. Instead of running off with their precious little plane, just hang around and remove the forces who are blowing it up protecting it.

A: You can not get STAG back unless you get DLC (for XBox 360) and you get STAG homies      (STAG commandos only). They will not drive STAG cars, but you will have STAG homies.

A: if you want the stag condor vtol, the sunset park area of the game where stag was based still has a stag base.   There wont be any stag there but they have the Condor there so even if you 100% completed the game you can get one.   its in the parking area,  there's an abandoned stag base there.    As far as getting stag back,  no   once you 100 percent the game gangs and stag no longer spawn.

A: The Saints Row: The Third Unlockable Pack (Xbox 360, 160MSP) will give you all the things you didn't get as a result of your choices.
The other thing you can do is try to join someone who has STAG in their city and try the challenge then.

A: If you're playing on the PC, you can install the Gentlemen of Steelport mod compilation. One of its features is a 'Mission Replay' feature. The first mission that prominently pits you against STAG as an enemy is 'Gang Bang'. You can also choose to replay other missions where you are pitted against STAG.
Replaying a mission will set the world back to its original state during that mission. Missions after 'Gang Bang' will make STAG troops patrol the city again.

A: If you have the basic Stag vehicles in your garage you can turn those in for the vehicle theft challenge. I waited for hours for an N-forced to show up, only to have wasted my time. I took one out of the garage with the challenge active and it immediately told me to take it to the chop shop.

Jordan Kissel v. Code42 Software, Inc., et al.
If you purchased an automatically renewing service from Code42 Software, Inc. at any time between November 19, 2011 and November 19, 2015, inclusive, and you are a consumer in the State of California, you could get a payment from a class action settlement.
A settlement has been reached in a class action lawsuit against Code42 Software, Inc. ("Code42"). The settlement resolves a lawsuit over whether Code42 complied with a California law that requires companies selling automatically renewing services to provide certain information to consumers; it avoids costs and risks to you from continuing the lawsuit; pays money to consumers like you; and releases Code42 from liability. Your legal rights are affected whether you choose to act or don't act. The Court in charge of this case granted final approval of the settlement, and payments were distributed to Class Members.
All consumers within the State of California who purchased any product or service from Code42 as part of an "Automatic Renewal" or "Continuous Service" plan or arrangement between November 19, 2011 and November 19, 2015, inclusive, and who were subsequently charged by and paid Code42 one or more fees for the renewal of the product or service beyond the original term are deemed to be Class Members in the settlement. This means that if you fit this description, your legal rights are affected by this settlement.
The settlement provides $400,000 to pay Class Members, as well as the attorneys' fees and costs for the lawyers representing the class and the expenses of settlement administration. Each Class Member received $8.34 from the settlement.
In addition, in November 2015 Code42 modified the information that it provides to California consumers about its automatically renewing services. Code42 has agreed to continue to provide this information, either in the form that Code42 has used since November 2015, or in some other form that complies with California law, for automatically renewing services that it offers to California consumers. Complete details can be found in the Settlement Agreement and FAQs.
If you are a Class Member and received the Class Notice by e-mail, a payment was made to you automatically after the Court approved the settlement. If, however, you did not receive the Class Notice notice by e-mail, you were required to submit a Claim Form to receive a payment. The time to submit a Claim Form has passed.
Exclude Yourself Get no payment. This is the only option that allows you ever to be part of any other lawsuit against Code42 about the legal claims in this case.
Object Write to the Court about why you don't like the settlement.
Do Nothing You will get a payment and will give up your rights to sue Code42 about the claims in this case.
These rights and options - and the deadlines to exercise them - are explained further in the Class Notice.

The anti-police uprising and the emergence of a vital force in the class struggle: youth
Posted in Class struggle, Racism & Oppression
By Larry Holmes
Larry Holmes gave this speech, which has been slightly edited, on a Workers World Party webinar June 4 on "No to Martial Law! Defend the Uprising!"
What we've seen over the last week is the largest national uprising against the police and systemic police racism in U.S. history. That's all the more extraordinary because it takes place during a pandemic, when we were supposed to stay home and be safe. But when there's a struggle, it pushes the pandemic aside.
Uprising, pandemic and capitalist crisis
We've reached a critical bridge with this uprising against the police. It intersects with a number of other things. The pandemic — which has been so brutal on Black and Brown communities, but also the entire working class — intersects with the capitalist crisis and Depression-level unemployment.
It intersects with the growing political instability of the capitalist system and within the capitalist ruling class.
Along with that, there are enormous changes in the demographics and political makeup of the working class. The character of this rebellion is very different from other uprisings against the police. It is more multinational. It is not only Black and Brown, there are many people of all generations and all nationalities.
The capitalist crisis has forced a lot of people into the working class, including a lot of young people who have college degrees and graduate degrees. They were hoping to find a place in the petty bourgeoisie with some confidence and stability, but the crisis of global capitalism is pushing them into not only the working class but into the gig economy, into the lower rungs of the working class, with absolutely no security, no unionization, no health care. That is part of the radicalization, the anticapitalism and some of the antiracism.
Many of these young people do not yet see themselves as part of the working class. That's where our job comes in. We must struggle to raise the class consciousness of this new, very dynamic sector of the working class.
Young workers are statistically the largest section of the working class, not only in this country, but worldwide. One of our obstacles is that the working-class movement is not strong, in terms of numbers and organization, or progressive and revolutionary politics. If these new young members of the working class were more class conscious, the crisis would be altogether different.
Going forward, our job is to bring these new forces into the working-class movement, either through unions, and where that's not possible into workers' assemblies, workers' councils, unemployment councils. And joining organizations like Workers World Party will promote the anti-imperialist, pro-working-class, anti-Democratic Party forces in the left. Those forces exist by the hundreds of thousands, by the millions.
Now is the time to open up a big struggle in the organized labor movement, while remembering they represent less than 10 percent of the workers. It makes it difficult to do this job if the labor movement, especially its leadership, is stuck in class collaboration tied to the Democratic Party. The next time there is a rebellion against the police, against systematic racist terror, there has to be a general strike.
Now anything is possible
For those who say it's impossible because the workers' movement is just not up to that, I say this rebellion that we've been witnessing over the past week, who the hell thought that was possible? A police station in Minneapolis was overtaken by thousands, the police ran, and they burnt the police station down. I don't remember that happening in recent U.S. history.
What we thought was impossible before, the events of the past week are showing that it's possible. If labor does not mobilize and solidarize itself, in a big way with this uprising against the police, it will help those neofascist forces who want to stop the class struggle and the struggle for socialism.
Right now, the revolutionary left is still marginalized, as is even the Sanders movement. We're marginalized regarding our size and influence. This is unacceptable, comrades and friends. Especially now, this crisis is too great for us to remain marginalized.
If we remain marginalized, it means that Marxism, socialism and class struggle, class conscious will also be marginalized. It means that the liberal bourgeoisie will ultimately take over the leadership — and they're very good at that. They know what to say, the reverends know the speeches to give and how to take control. That's what they're paid for.
All of us who understand what I'm talking about — the importance of class consciousness, class orientation and swelling the numbers of our organized class and having revolutionary potential on our minds — need to step back, reassess this. Understand that this is not just episodic. We must grasp the fact that this is not just one event; it's part of a whole new phase of the global uprising of our class.
Those of us who used to call ourselves the vanguard must act together in a principled way to make sure that our class gets ready to meet the tasks ahead of us. So that the road to revolution is not something far off in the distance that we don't see. Our work brings it on the horizon.
Moderator Judy Greenspan: Why does WWP call it a rebellion instead of a riot?
Larry: You know, none of us who live in neighborhoods are happy to see our favorite grocery store trashed. In many instances, you know, it may be Pakistanis or Palestinians or other people of color who own and run that store. I'm saying that we need to look at all of this in a larger political and historical context.
There's so much pain and suffering and oppression that goes on day in, day out, year after year, generation after generation, century after century, it's all pushed down. The news doesn't cover it. You don't see it on CNN or even MSNBC. And so when there's the spark that lights the rebellion, like this 10-minute torturing and lynching of George Floyd, with people standing around watching and begging that the cop stop, when something like that sets off a rebellion, all of that pain, all of that suffering that has been quiet, that the bourgeoisie doesn't address itself to, that the news doesn't cover, it blows up.
And when it blows up, things get destroyed. Small stores, big stores, police stations, and people want to stay in the street; they want to shut it down. If the pandemic wasn't on, they'd be stopping traffic. As Malcolm X once said, and we appreciate the contributions of both Martin Luther King and Malcolm X, realizing that in the 60s, before they were cut down, neither of them made it to the age of 40. In many ways, they were youth, you know, and they were involved in a struggle of Black Liberation versus civil rights. They both made contributions, but it's important to underscore Malcolm's role.
Malcolm was strong on the question that we have the right to defend ourselves. Malcolm talked about how our people did not want to engage in struggle and violence to get attention. People just want to live their lives in peace, with love, and know that they have health care and a roof over their head and the things that they need to try to be happy.
Terrible things have to happen to people before they are pushed to the wall and say, "The hell with it." Malcolm said, "As you sow, so shall you reap." If you reap oppression and suffering and terror, you should not be surprised when Burn, Baby, Burn comes. The great writer James Baldwin almost 60 years ago wrote a famous book called "The Fire Next Time." Some of us older people remember that, but the younger people study and they remember too, and it was a wonderful book. No one wrote prose as well as Baldwin. I'm sure most of us are familiar with it.
He was warning the capitalists, the white supremacist hierarchy, that the next time your cities are going to burn. I may not want it, it might not be what I want to do. But it's a chemical, scientific, inevitable reaction. So you should not be surprised, and you should not blame it.
I believe that we should struggle very strongly against the liberals who say, "Well, it's all about the violence and we have to separate them." First of all, that gives the police and the military a justification. You can have cops out there saying, "Yeah, we don't like what happened to George Floyd. But you know, we got to arrest those bad people and put them in prison by the thousands. So we can torture them and don't even give them masks. So they might even get the pandemic."
Which is an incredible and outrageous fear. I keep thinking about it. Some of those arrested have been in jail.
We have to have a revolutionary, contextual view of the inevitability of violence, of militancy, of whatever people feel they need to do. And where did they learn looting from? Wall Street loots! Day in, day out! All you have to do is live under this system and it's hard not to want to loot. What am I going to get, a container of milk, maybe a couple of packages of meat or something like that, if you can a radio or a computer or something you want to sell.
Look at all this unemployment. Look at all the young workers who are losing their jobs. I've heard interviews with those who have been arrested for so-called looting and stuff like that. What do you learn from a society that pretends to be democratic, wonderful, the best thing on Earth, but in fact is full of looting. It's a looting criminal system. So look in the mirror, bourgeoisie, and blame your looting self.

Conor Halion looks back at generations of Irish poetry, and the impact it has had on our national identity.
Share the post "Poetry: A window into the past, a door to the future."
Yet poetry is not only focused on imagining the future, but also in giving voice to the past. Paula Meehan once remarked that one of the key responsibilities of the poet is to act as a voice of "communal memory" and I believe this can best be seen with our national poet, W.B Yeats. September 1913 is seething with the frustrations of a generation who have watched their nation's dreams be murdered in the interests of monetary gain, with Yeats remarking that "Romantic Ireland's dead and gone. It's with O'Leary in the grave." But we can also see the past and future mingled in Yeats' later poem, Easter 1916 wherein he documents the immediate aftermath of the 1916 Rebellion. Yeats gives mention to the rebels, such as Pearse and Markievicz, but also anticipates the bloody civil war between the Free State and the Republic; "A Terrible Beauty is Born." Yeats himself was an avid supporter of the arts and would go on to help found the Abbey Theatre, and later he would even serve as ambassador to the Irish Free State.
Yet Yeats is not the only poet to enter politics. Our own president, Michael D. Higgins, has enjoyed a successful career as a poet, as well as a keen human rights activist. It is not surprising that we have elected a poet to stand as the representative of our nation on the international stage, given the poet's dual ability to give voice to the past, and embody our hopes for the future. Ireland is proud to be called home by a number of award-winning poets: Oscar Wilde, James Joyce, W.B Yeats, John Montague, Eiléan Ní Chuilleanáin, and Paula Meehan to name but a few. However, I would argue that no voice better embodies the present that is Ireland today than that of Emmet Kirwan, author of Dublin Old School among other works.
Originally running as a play before being adapted into a film, the work's form evenly moulds old forms with new, as between conversations between characters about alcohol, drugs and plenty of profanity, the main character waxes an inner monologue which wouldn't be out of place in The Divine Comedy. Regardless of your take on the film, one cannot deny that Kirwan has inherited the same role which Yeats occupied decades ago: giving a voice to his community, in particular, a generation who seem to have a phobia of being sober. To reiterate my opening statement about Maude, the Irish poet's power lies in their ability to define themselves, and it is only by defining themselves that they can begin to give a voice to the world around them, and like their spiritual predecessors, the Fílí, even change it.

Exploration of the character of human conversation and the media is a pre needful to any evaluate of the most probably destiny position of communications . . we won't imagine that the character of this stuff is transparently noticeable to every body and consequently mostly understood. 3 advancements in fresh many years may still accurately warn opposed to such an assumption. First, we had the fiasco of social scientists attempting to practice Shannon's mathematical concept of knowledge as though it have been a conception of human communique. 'In Shannon's use of knowledge we can't converse of the way a lot info somebody has basically how a lot a message has. ' (Ackoff and Emery, 1972, p. 145). they wouldn't have wandered into that blind alley in the event that they had stopped to consider the character of human verbal exchange. moment was once the belated yet wholehearted popularity of the Heider conception of stability and its subse quent wane. Its wane had not anything to do with its inherent benefits. It waned since it couldn't live on at the Procrustean mattress of the psychologists' thought of selection. It didn't take place to the psychologists to question their as sumptions approximately how humans made the alternatives that result in practical com munication (Ackoff and Emery, 1972, p. 58). The final instance has been the sour and unended furore approximately McLuhan. This time the psychologists and sociologists haye been unusually quiet yet we will be able to ascertain this doesn't suggest acquiescence in McLuhan's views.

What I shall argue is that some of the makes an attempt to appreciate elements or attri butes in reductive phrases fail.

Information handling and the affect system The perceptual system did not evolve in isolation. We think that Silvan Tomkins (1962) has successfully argued the case that it evolved in conjunction with the affect system. The perceptual system enables the organism to get information from the environmnet and itself: the affect system ensures that action is taken on that information. What is central to our concerns in this paper is that the innate (as distinct from the subsequently learnt) instigation of the affects are the most general informational properties of the inputs, not specific releasers such as have been established in some fish and birds.
Each in· acting must take into account how it may affect the other and in turn be affected by the other. The importance of this property for any form of interpersonal influence makes it necessary to spell out the way in which it emerges. 'When two people, A and B, work jointly or converse, each includes in his view, simultaneously and in their relation, the following facts: 1. A perceives the surroundings, which include B and himself; 2. A perceives that B is also oriented to the surroundings, that B includes himself and A in the surroundings; 3.
In fact, it seems likely that the effectiveness of the Goon Show lay in the exploitation of this contradiction - the crazy juxtaposition of apparently real things to convey something of what they are as part of our inner, personal worlds. Television does not share the contradictory nature of radio. At first sight it appears to resolve this contradiction and overcome the limitations of all the other media. ' (Arnheim, p. 161).

March: Book Two by John Lewis, Andrew Aydin, and Nate Powell
Congressman John Lewis, an American icon and one of the key figures of the civil rights movement, continues his award-winning graphic novel trilogy with co-writer Andrew Aydin and artist Nate Powell, inspired by a 1950s comic book that helped prepare his own generation to join the struggle. Now, March brings the lessons of history to vivid life for a new generation, urgently relevant for today's world.
After the success of the Nashville sit-in campaign, John Lewis is more committed than ever to changing the world through nonviolence — but as he and his fellow Freedom Riders board a bus into the vicious heart of the deep south, they will be tested like never before. Faced with beatings, police brutality, imprisonment, arson, and even murder, the movement's young activists place their lives on the line while internal conflicts threaten to tear them apart.
But their courage will attract the notice of powerful allies, from Martin Luther King, Jr. to Attorney General Robert F. Kennedy... and once Lewis is elected chairman of the Student Nonviolent Coordinating Committee, this 23-year-old will be thrust into the national spotlight, becoming one of the "Big Six" leaders of the civil rights movement and a central figure in the landmark 1963 March on Washington for Jobs and Freedom.

Colmenares Digital Changed Social Media Marketing Forever
In 2013 Joe Colmenares (also known as Jose Colmenares) started growing a couple of meme Instagram accounts named which gained about 200,000 followers in just a few months. Back then being able to get those numbers was a big deal. Let's remember that even famous stars were struggling to pass the hundred thousand followers. Joe was able to accomplish this by working ensemble with a couple of Colombian and Venezuelan colleagues who also had funny meme accounts, so they helped each other grow. The result was the inception of a new era digital marketing agency: Colmenares Digital Corp.
He started being approached by new influencers, musicians and even business owners in order to be featured on his meme accounts. They would pay up to $100 for a quick 24 post (shoutout) on these accounts. The results were amazing, accounts who received such shout outs would grow up to 10,000 followers overnight, all legit, no giveaways, no tricks, just pure direct advertising. This was extremely powerful so Joe decided to make real a business out of it. He partnered with ten more Instagram accounts in the fitness, news and meme niche and created packages for clients to choose from. This way everybody in this network of accounts would benefit for each sale to a point where it was standard for a single One of these accounts to make $1,000 in one day.
Things only got better and better after this. A few years down the road, Instagram merged with Facebook and came up with their own ads platform. This definitely affected the business so Colmenares Digital had to reinvent itself. This turn of events caught many by surprise but Joe knew there had to be a way to profit from this. He became Facebook ads expert and started offering the combination of ads , shoutouts and content creation to all the clients of Colmenares Digital.
At this point this was still a one man operation until he was forced to escalate the business to a whole new level. By bringing in four new employees Colmenares Digital Corp became one the of fastest Instagram dedicated marketing agency in Latin America. Along with all the IG services, Colmenares Digital trained its agents to become Facebook and Google certified experts which continued to bring more and more growth to the business.

Phillies Notebook: J.T. Realmuto saves day…

Phillies Notebook: J.T. Realmuto saves day against the Orioles in the 10th
By Jack McCaffery | jmccaffery@delcotimes.com | The Times Herald
PHILADELPHIA – With the taunting right field scoreboard showing the Atlanta Braves with a lead in Arizona, and with Citizens Bank Park quiet after another night of lackluster offense, the Phillies Tuesday looked for a lifeline.
They found J.T. Realmuto.
With two out in the bottom of the 10th, and with the Phils' NL East championship hopes threatened, Realmuto waffled a triple into the right field corner to score Ronald Torreyes from third and presumptive MVP Bryce Harper from first to salvage an unlikely 3-2 victory over the Baltimore Orioles.
That capped another remarkable night from Harper, who singled, doubled, was intentionally walked in the 10th and scored the winning run.
Harper's hustle to beat the throw would help obscure a couple of earlier questionable baserunning decisions, including failing to stretch a single to a double and being thrown out at the plate in the eighth inning trying to score against a drawn-in infield.
Harper, whose seven-time appearance on the injury report early in the season likely cost him an All-Star Game nod, has made 61 consecutive starts.
"Well, I think you'd have to give the medical staff the most credit, along with Bryce, the work that he puts in to be out there every day," Girardi said. "The player has to be willing to put the work in every day, and he is. And the medical staff does an incredible job with him."
Harper, 28, played 58 of the 60 games in the shortened 2020 season, when the designated-hitter option often allowed him to ease back soreness.
"You know, I think he's probably holding up about as well as he can," Girardi said. "I still see him taking good swings. I see him making good defensive plays, staying in the zone as a hitter. I think he's doing an incredible job."
Harper had reached base safely in 29 of his last 30 games.
Girardi's selection of an opener for the bullpen game, Adonis Medina, worked 4.2 innings, striking out three while allowing four hits and one run.
"Well, when you look at Baltimore's splits, right-handers have had a lot more success than left-handers against them," Girardi explained. "I figured he was going to pitch at some point anyway, so why not do something that he's comfortable with and start him?"
Medina started a game last season, striking out four in four innings of a loss to Toronto.
"I take into account that start against Toronto last year," Girardi said. "It was a pretty important start and he handled it pretty well. He was throwing strikes. At times, people might think it's a lot to ask, but everything we've given him so far, he's handled."
Connor Brogdon, on the IL retroactive to Sept. 13 with a groin injury, had a modified pregame bullpen session Tuesday.
"He had what they call not-a-high-intensity bullpen," Girardi said. "I've got to see how it came out and what the next step is."
Though Brogdon has been sketchy at times this season, Girardi sees him as a useful later-game option.
"The good thing is that he was off the mound," the manager said. "So that's a positive."
Zack Wheeler (14-9, 2.83 ERA) will pitch Wednesday night at 7:05. The O's are expected to start lefthander Keegan Akin (2-10, 6.93).

Italy Euro 2012: Squad and Team Profile
5 June 2012 by joe90
Despite riding into this summer's European Championships on the crest of a wave of corruption and scandal that threatens to pull Italy beneath the surface of their troubled waters and out of the tournament before it's even begun, the Azzurri arrive in Poland with a squad that boasted the best defensive record in qualifying, and an explosive strike force that has the potential to cause as many problems on the pitch as they have done off it.
Coach Cesare Prandelli has instilled within his side a robustness that propelled an unbeaten Italy through a qualifying group that contained such potential banana skins as Estonia, Serbia, Slovenia and Northern Ireland. Their ten games came at the cost of just two goals conceded, with both coming in tricky away ties in Eastern Europe. But the sturdy defence Prandelli has built is worlds apart from the dogmatic, counter-attacking catenaccio for which the Azzurri have been known for decades. Instead, Prandelli's Italy are an attractive and attacking side who aim to dominate possession. Indeed, only Spain had better possession stats in qualifying.
It should come as no surprise that the incredible Gianluigi Buffon remains Italy's first choice goalkeeper. Now thirty-four, and a scudetto winner again this year after his beloved Juventus secured their first Serie A title since the calciopoli scandal, Buffon goes into the tournament with 114 international caps to his name, and stands third in the list of Italy's record appearance holders, behind only Paolo Maldini and Fabio Cannavaro. Buffon was crucial to Juventus' success this season, conceding only sixteen goals in thirty-five matches, and may see the European Championships as his last chance to taste success with the national side. Napoli's enigmatic Morgan De Sanctis, and Paris Saint-Germain's Salvatore Sirigu will provide the back up options between the sticks.
In front of Buffon the likelihood is that fellow Juventus stalwart Giorgio Chiellini will start alongside another bianconeri regular in Andrea Barzagli, though an injury picked up by the latter in Friday night's 3-0 defeat at the hands of Russia has threatened to rule the centre-back out of at least the group stage encounters. Should Barzagli not recover in time, the talented but relatively untested Angelo Ogbonna of Torino, or Leonardo Bonucci, also of Juventus, should take his place. Bonucci's place in the squad remains in question however, after he was put under investigation by Italian police as part of their enquiries into the current match fixing scandal that has destabilised Italian football.
Prandelli's hand is difficult to judge, not least because of the intrusion of the authorities into the team's preparation for the tournament. But he is also a man not afraid of making changes. A move to a 3-5-2 system has been rumoured, but it is the 4-3-1-2 system favoured in qualification that is perhaps the most likely to be deployed, at least initially. Should this be the case the attack-minded Christian Maggio of Napoli and the similarly daring Federico Balzaretti of Palermo look likely to be selected an right-back and left-back respectively, though AC Milan's Ignazio Abate will provide competition to Maggio.
The talisman of the side will be Andrea Pirlo, who has enjoyed something of a renaissance this season. Many questioned AC Milan's decision to allow the midfielder to leave for Juventus on a free transfer last summer, and after rolling back the years with a succession of performances as consistent as they have been impressive, Pirlo has re-established himself as the heartbeat of the Italian midfield. The combative and hard working duo of Daniele De Rossi and Claudio Marchisio are likely to provide the brawn to Pirlo's brain, but are both also quality players in their own right, capable of single handedly winning games. Riccardo Montolivo, who Prandelli knows well from his time at Fiorentina, could push for a place however, but is perhaps more likely to replace Pirlo should the midfielder tire.
Exactly who will play as the trequartista – or in the hole – is trickier to predict. The bullish brilliance of Antonio Cassano, ignored for so long by Marcelo Lippi and now fit again after his remarkable recovery from a 'mini-stroke' suffered last October, can no longer be dismissed. However the six goals scored by Il Gioiella di Bari Vecchia – 'the Jewel of Old Bari' as he is known – in the qualification stages may mean he demands a place higher up the pitch. In such a scenario, there is a case to be made for deploying Bologna's attacking midfielder Alessandro Diamanti behind a front two. Diamanti, a familiar face to West Ham fans after spending a season with the east London club between 2009 and 2010, offers a creative drive, and a goalscoring threat from deep positions that makes him an appealing option.
Nobody has scored more goals in Serie A over the last three seasons than Udinese's Antonio Di Natale, and his guile may make him the ideal option to partner the unpredictable Mario Balotelli. But Di Natale has delayed a decision over his future in recent weeks, and is rumoured to be considering retirement as he has struggled to come to terms with the loss of team mate and friend Piermario Morosini, who tragically died during a match between Pescara and Livorno – where he was on loan – in April. Balotelli poses his own questions, an astonishing talent with the shortest of fuses, whose international career is still very much in its infancy. Though Di Natale and Balotelli are perhaps the most likely to start up front, Prandelli faces an enormous task in focusing the minds of two of his greatest assets.
Italian football's on-going battle with the evils of corruption have no doubt upset Prandelli and his squad as they prepare for the European Championships. Much has been made of the Italian victories in the 1982 and 2006 World Cups, events which the Azzurri went into whilst battling similar scandals, and whether this ignominy can galvanise the squad and spur them on to glory. Whether or not such a scenario plays out remains to be seen, but its clear that Prandelli and his players have a lot of work to do to restore Italian football's reputation to the international community.
